[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
@raytraceme,

Actually what I'm doing right now is flashing an earlier kdz since I couldn't root the one I had. If I get root, I should be able to push an image of a Nitro HD.

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 AM ----------

Annnnd it's confirmed, root achieved on LG Nitro HD running SU640 rom version v10f!
[LG Nitro HD] raytraceme:
cool so now we are getting good places w/this phone :) Im still upset i might have to ditch this for the nexus i'm getting soon.wtf was lg thinking "ics update q2 2012" FUUUUUU
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
If anybody has some helpful advice an how to push an image to the Nitro, please throw it out :)

I am very new to android hacking, but I'm thinking I'd adb push the .img file to the nitro and then use a dd command to replace the contents of a partition with the Nitro contents.
[LG Nitro HD] bytecode64:
Updated main post , upload system.img and boot.img to sdcard
[LG Nitro HD] raytraceme:
can you upload your lg nitro recovery.img and boot.img?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
@bytecode64,

Do you think you could make it a little more obvious in the main post (like with big red text at the top) that we're looking for stock system and boot images before we can go any further? I'm afraid people might not realize that we now need the help of someone with an unmodified system partition (aside from it being rooted) before we can go any further. Personally, I'd take anyone's system partition, I just want a working phone lol, but for the purposes of this guide, people would feel more at ease knowing their image is more or less stock.
[LG Nitro HD] bytecode64:
LOL i dont have a nitro :D
[LG Nitro HD] schwin97:
Can we get a dump from the system partition while we are using the system partition?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I don't see why not, but I am a noob. I think if you did something like:

dd if=system_partition of=/sdcard/system.img

(replacing "system_partition" with the right dev) it should work. Reading a mounted partition is much less problematic than overwriting one while it's mounted. It's actually going to be much more difficult for me to figure out how to write the image to my system partition. I'm afraid I won't be able to do that until we get CWM set up.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Another idea I've been toying with is the possibility of cooking a "stock" .kdz. If we could do that, it's possible we could use LG's own software to flash our phones. We might even be able to flash a custom rom (i.e. CyanogenMod).
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
You should be able to pull the system partition from download mode.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
gte460z,

How do you access it? I wasn't able to do anything with adb in download mode.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
If i am not mistaken, you would need to make the /system partition read/write with:

mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p27 /system

then you can copy the recovery image back to it with:

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27 bs=4096

someone correct me if i am wrong pls.

ALSO: Looking for a Bell stock img of partitions 13 and 27, can anyone with an optimus LTE on Bell help with this pls?

Just run adb shell, then su, then use dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p<13_or_27> of=/sdcard/<system_or_boot>.img bs=4096

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

So it seems the SU640 uses the similar MDM9200 and v11a software kernel and baseband as our Optimus LTE from Bell. Curious to see if this will work on our units.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
So I just did something interesting. I did an adb reboot recovery and my SU640-ified Nitro happily complied and put me in recovery mode where it stayed for about 30 seconds and then rebooted. When it came back up, it put me into the first start wizard, but I was still rooted. Anybody know what that means?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Follow up on previous post. Every subsequent attempt has led me to be kicked out of recovery in a manner similar to the Nitro rom. Strange.
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Were you be able do anything during that 30 seconds or it showed just the recovery logo?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
@V@no,

Nope, just showed the recovery logo and a progress bar (that didn't really show any progress). I wonder if it'd be worth it to try reflashing it again, root it, and then try my hand at that CWM recovery image.
[LG Nitro HD] bytecode64:
Anyone with a working nitro , i need init.rc which would be in your /root file system, need it to port images :(
[LG Nitro HD] tokie_:
tell me how i go about getting it for you and i will have it in no otime

edit:: ok i had to get it from using root explorer but here ya go bytecode

and yes its from a lgp930 nitro had to put it in a 7zip file since it wont awollow it as an .rc file
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Okay, so I've made significant progress toward full recovery! I'm now in a working AT&T image once again (and am actually posting this from my P930!). The only problem I have left is that my baseband is still showing up as SU-640. Any ideas what I need to replace?
[LG Nitro HD] tokie_:
i would think you would need to flash the att radio for the p930 and maybe the kernal ? im not 100% forsure but i think we need CFW for that dont we ? to can it be done threw ADB?
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
I think u can flash radio through adb, but I never tried the kernel other than through cwm
[LG Nitro HD] bytecode64:
The thing is we dont have the kdz files for nitro , which includes radio files , i havent found anyway to backup radio other than extracting it from kdz file , so since we dont have nitro kdz , :(

BTW , GPS/GSM/LTE is working ?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
Check out the "[Solved] Unbricking Solution for LG Nitro HD" thread. Malnilion has the nitro baseband image and confirmed it can be flashed via adb (he went from SU-640 to P930 Nitro basebands).
[LG Nitro HD] ktjsks:
anyone send p930 firmware file please!!

i will test su640 flash p930rom
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
No need for as you can see, the previous posts shows the SU640 ROM as being tested and working for restore. thanks though, please search!!!
[LG Nitro HD] txiong14:
Eh Malnilion,

What is the progress on your nitro-flashed-to-optimus-lte phone? I am in the same boat and just got done flashing to optimus lte (with no wifi).

Can you post a guide on how you got the phone to how it is today?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: Okay. I was able to reroot the phone, and now have installed superuser, clockworkmod's rom manager, as well as titanium backup. Problem is that I do not think clockworkmod rom manager is fully flashed in, eventhough I have the rom installed (because I need internet connection/wifi to mobile flash the clockworkmod rom manager.

If I read correctly, you guys were able to get wifi back up??? If so, what exactly was the procedure? Any ideas is appreciated.

I made nandroid backups when my LG Nitro was still stock (has boot.img and recovery.img and everything). If I can get internet connection/wifi to work, to get clockworkmod to work, then possibly I can restore the nandroid backup to a stock LG Nitro. I wonder if it will work.
[LG Nitro HD] tokie_:
if you have flashed the su640 kdz and have root you dont need CWM to go back to stock att.. you just need to use adb to push the files over and run the dd command if im correct thats how i did it .... its been a few weeks tho
[LG Nitro HD] noobsquared:
I just flashed the V10F_00.kdz file that I found in dropbox here:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6v5jxci6mstt92a/hvFk6GAaxP/Unbrick/AT&T P930

Is that the right file or should I flash V10i_00.kdz or LU620135_00.kdz?

After 30 or so attempts to run zerg, I finally got root :)

Thank you everyone for all your help :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DealsSeeker:
Is your cable a samsung branded one? I had that same problem but with stock rom. I used an LG branded cable and the phone would connect to the computer and charge, but would not go into USB mode.

This has happened a few time for me. Sometimes the phone has only needed a reboot, the wire definitely plays a big role... I bought some cheap cables that didn't work at all... some of the older roms wouldn't show USB connected unless drivers were installed (kies). An issue I've more recently unveiled is after using an MHL adapter sometimes the USB will connect for 30-60 seconds before unmounting storage again. Hope that helps

[Acer Iconia A500] criminal666:
Hello everyone, I have read that Acer has said they would be updating the Iconia A500 to ICS in mid January. I am not sure how reliable this is, but my questions would be, should I root now, or wait for the OTA update for ICS from Acer. Any thoughts would be great!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Should you breath now? That's a loaded question, because, whether you root now, or wait till ICS, bottom line is that the bootloader will be changed.

If you believe 1 site that says ICS will come next month, Then your face will be blue. Or maybe purple.

But hey, they could release a whole new ICS, and current methods will be crap. And when you decide to update to ICS, your root will be crap also. And 99% this will happen. Anybody remember 3.2???

Look, you can sit on your hindquarters, and wait. Or, you can root and recovery, And play around with the ASOP ICS roms. And get a little experience in doing things.

Or you can wait, and then say WTF???? when you take your OTA, and the bottom drops out of things.

Your choice. Come to the dark side....
[Acer Iconia A500] TLSS:
Realistically, we probably won't see ICS on the Iconia until second quarter..I would take Moscow's advice. Get into the game now, learn a bit about the tab and ALL the features it has to offer, so when ICS drops you'll be truly ready.
[Acer Iconia A500] timmyDean:
Agreed, you might not see ICS at all. It breaks too many things pushing it OTA and because of support issues many MFG's are not going to make ICS available OTA. Now I know the marketing engines of each MFG are saying they'll have it, stay loyal to the brand, give me your money etc.

Bottom-line, ICS is a major OS change so look for MFG's to only make it available on NEW devices. Of course they may make a tool to load it at your own risk or someone else will make it. But I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for ICS from ACER on anything they've already sold you and got already paid for (no upside). Follow the money, which will be on new sales.

my 2¢

TD
[Acer Iconia A500] hardslog:
These guys have some good advice. Chances are the Devs will have ICS working before Acer does anyway, so you would need to be rooted to install that LOL
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
hummmmm. do you need root????

Thee are reasons why people root there tablet.

If you are OK with waiting even another day or two.

Ask yourself why root my tablet.don't do it just to hang out with the big kids.

Do it because you need something it brings.with that said im guessing you have no business or reason to root your device.

Good luck in what ever you decide what do I know im just a silly girl.

:eek::eek::cool::eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] criminal666:
Thanks for the replies, I planned on Rooting, just wasn't sure if I would wait till the possible ICS update? But all the post make sense, so I will probably just root in the next day or two! Thanks:D

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Merucena:
After one of the biggest online revolt against Korean Giant Samsung Electronics by its consumers after announcing straightaway that it won’t be coming out with ICS Android 4.0 for its 1st Generation Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab line up, now it seems like Samsung had to bow down to the reaction of its customers. Samsung today announced that it will be going to review its decision for not rolling out ICS for Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab which clearly suggests that Samsung Electronics will soon be going to unveil the ICS Android 4.0 version.

This decision comes after so many forums reported that when unofficial ICS Android 4.0 builds are taking rounds for its 1st generation line up of Samsung Galaxy Tab and Galaxy S then why can’t Samsung can optimize for the same. Some of the leading forums also kicked off an online petition request which was supported by users in a huge number and in turn has really shaken Samsung and is now forced to review its decision.

just hope that this “Review” will soon be converted into a speedy roll out of ICS Android 4.0 for its 1st generation Galaxy devices which includes Galaxy Tab and Galaxy S. Do, share with us your reaction and thoughts on this as it will further help us and to you as we will be passing this feedback to Samsung.

Don't see why they should learn from Sony Ericsson. They are not faster than samsung updating their phones. Samsung has 2.3.6 for most of their phones while SE has 2.3.4.

Never really saw the reason to release the Galaxy S Plus. Atleast, here in Sweden it costs more than the S2. That's Samsungs main problem. All these models that are the same as the others. They have Gio, Ace, Mini, Galaxy Y? They are mainly the same phones. If they would instead only release two of them, like the Ace and the Mini, they would have time to upgrade all the phones. WAKE UP, SAMSUNG!!!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Warrior4Jah:
I usually don't join in these discussions; however your statement is untrue.

My wife's SE X10 flagship smartphone from 2010 is NOT getting an update to ICS.

How do you explain that? This phone was released with android 1.6 and would not get an update to gingerbread at first, also the phone was uncapable of multitouch and would not get an update... I doubt many would agree with you that SE update policy was great back then.

I think your best bet for updates is to go with the Nexus phones.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Warrior4Jah:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Torlo:
People at Samsung mobile are so stupid they think that we will buy S2 when we don't get ICS on S1

Samsung U can't force us!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] omnicronx:
Probably 1GB of RAM like the SGS II. Touchwiz in its current incarnation for the SGS II is a memory hog, and probably would not work on the SGS with ICS if they tried.

They would most likely need more than one branch of Touchwiz to bring it to other devices, and this is probably the reason why it won't be released for the SGS and devices with less than 1GB of RAM.

I don't think its not possible, I think Samsung just does not want to spend dev hours on older devices in which they won't see a return in investment. (and of course, you won't be going out to buy a new device)

Like it or not, Apple has changed consumer expectations for updates. I understand its much easier to do such a thing with a limited amount of devices, but in the eyes of the average consumer, that is not their problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nit3m4re:
I just don't think Samsung are willing to drop TouchWiz (Which is the obvious suggestion to avoid the RAM excuse) and have to offer support for pure AOSP builds. More hassle than its worth for them, while I think its wrong, they're probably thinking this time next year it'll be forgotten etc and the few who do still hold the grudge, it'll hardly dent their sales. Business is business these days, there is very little loyalty under the surface in a market as rapidly growing as this, its a constant arms race. Me personally, I don't care, as we're fortunate enough to have XDA and CM9 working a charm so soon after the source was released. I guess that's the power of Android and as long as that's the case, I only really care about the hardware inside my phone, for which the SGS's is still, awesome :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mekler22:
I think it's important that Samsung does release ICS for S1

simply because they have the full specs and software for it, they can make the rom fully working and be a much better base for cooked roms.

The ICS roms here need to rely on source (which is not the S1 ICS source) and slowly find how to adapt it to S1 and make it work as best as possible.

With GB roms its not an issue as they have stock roms to start with.

Samsung can even make a simple base ICS rom just so developers can use it for this and other ROM developing communities. that would be a great move.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] digitheatre:
No more Samsung or other OEM android brand except Nexus for me after this. I flashed my SGS to ICS rom and gave the phone to my wife. It is good enough for daily use for now until CM9 stable released. I just got G.Nexus for myself, hardware is not so superior, but I can live with it as I know my device will be the first to get updated and it is a perfect balance between good hardware and software, good enough for me.
