Thanks man! DL'ing now!
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
No offense and I appreciate what you have done here, but are you an owner of file factory? It is sssssooooooo slow, I know I could pay and get it faster and if you are an owner, that would benefit you and I completely understand then, but if you aren't, there are a whole lot faster hosting sites for free.
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
Generics 5_0_12_0 worked! DLL Registered
[LG Revolution] :
Thanks!

Remember If you kill your phone don't go looking for me unless your a ninja
[LG Revolution] imucarmen:
I'm no ninja, but I do hunt ninja's and assassinate them for a living. just saying...ninja's ain't all that :P
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
Lol. I hate this computer. But anyway, by chance do you have access to LG's servers enought to get me the service manual for the LG Spectrum
[LG Revolution] TheMuffStuff:
The instructions say

3. Get the Stock Rom TOT file and extract it.

POSTED ABOVE

still need to do that?

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

VS920ZV7​_05.7z or is this the TOT?
[LG Revolution] :
No unfortunately I don't
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
I give up. As soon as the flash starts LGNPST gives an error "LGNPST MFC Application has an experienced an error and needs to close....Please wait while windows checks for a solution to this problem"

Win7 x64 and XPdid the same thing in a virtual machine

Any ideas?
[LG Revolution] :
it might need a new version of LGNPST
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
I ran as administrator to get past that error but I believe there is a new components file also as that was my next error lol.
[LG Revolution] :
i posted latest version 5.0.20.0
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
I got it! Screen shots incoming!
[LG Revolution] :

[LG Revolution] phillip_viado:
lets say i do install this. and a month later the official ota ics comes out. can i still go back to v6 and take the update????????????/
[LG Revolution] brandonson112:
Yes you can. You use essentially the same method but install the v6 files instead.
[LG Revolution] srg3037:
I cannot install LGNPST_Components_Ver_5_0_20_0.msi - it comes back with a error.

"Error 1721. this a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this isntall to complete could not be run..."

Any ideas?
[LG Revolution] atomilluminati:
cant get components installed

LG Components 5_0_20_0 wont install for me ... not sure why... but everytime i run the install this is what i get ....

really want to get this resolved as soon as possible
[LG Revolution] pipboy007:
That is exactly what I am getting and without that installing, LGNPST just calls my phone unknown.
[LG Revolution] neph81:
Anyone getting one of those error messages will need to manually remove the LGNPST Components listing from the uninstall list using regedit. It is not for the weak of heart or anyone that does not understand just how badly you can botch your system doing a regedit. I can tell you that after I did it, I was able to install the package.

[LG Revolution] travisjshepherd:
do you need to be rooted for this? If not, will it wipe your phone like most pre-ota update files?
[LG Revolution] atomilluminati:
i did this but am now getting this....

ShellExecuteEx failed.
[LG Revolution] neph81:
Sounds like something in the entry survived, or there is something else that needed to be purged besides what you found.
[LG Revolution] atomilluminati:
im thinking i might need to install 5_0_11_0 and then go from there but i dont know where to find it .... if i can it might generate the shell needed to execute and update from ... i could be way off though
[LG Revolution] pipboy007:
I have now gotten mine to find the phone and have the right name, but when i try to upgrade it crashes even while I am running as admin.
[LG Revolution] brandonson112:
The phone needs to be in DL mode
[LG Revolution] :
Does this mean the revo has ics now
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
Seems to be a blank pdf
[LG Revolution] brandonson112:
No this is for the VS920 the Spectrum
[LG Revolution] badrsj:
Guys, file factory is like a hostage situation. I've never been able to get anything from them.

:confused:
[LG Revolution] pipboy007:
It is not DL mode because if I put it in DL mode while in LGNPST, it say emergency recover, even though I know it should say upgrade.
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
It will still flash the build. It was the only way LGNPST would flash without crashing

[LG Revolution] cac2us:
That's OK.
[LG Revolution] pipboy007:
If I use emergency, then it does not give me an option to chose the .tot file and only gives me phonebook recovery.
[LG Revolution] TheMuffStuff:
SAme here

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

edit. I put the tot where the phonebooth thing is, and it seems to have taken it well
[LG Revolution] srg3037:
Could someone who has gotten this work please post a quick how to - I cant even get the .dll to register.

Thanks.
[LG Revolution] pipboy007:
Thanks I will try it.
[LG Revolution] TheMuffStuff:
Edit. Without the phone in download mode, the thing would crash, dwonload mode worked, put in the dll, and put the .tot in the phonebooth section. all good.

Sorry, I thought we were using LGNPST Lab 1.2. Sounds like you and the other guy have LGNPST Store
[LG Revolution] cpark_12:
I think all the gapps are have a connection problem
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
I am up and running on ICS. it appears that the Bluetooth and Wifi, etc all work. I am also having an issue with the gapps, or at least the play store, I dont use gmail or anything else like that, but it WAS able to bring all of my contacts over which is part of my google account, so that worked at least. It is late here, early day of work tomorrow so all other testing will have to be put off until tomorrow. Have a good night and HAPPY DEV-ING. I will give a full report some time tomorrow...I hope.
[LG Revolution] real0325:
generics and components

can someone p.m the files PLEASE. i will return the favor .
[LG Revolution] jcase:
Just confirmation of multiple root vulnerabilities on the LG Spectrum ICS leak, I have decided to sit on them until official OTA.

Verified by death2all110 and mtmichaelson
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
VERIFIED!!!!

Sit on em till the ota!
[LG Revolution] rockstar490:
filefactory for the loose :/
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
And that is my sexy hand in the picture there! So it is verified by me too!!!
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
What the...

People are still buying LG Phone Products? :eek::eek::eek:
[LG Revolution] joshw0000:
A lot of 4G Verizon phones are being discovered to be global phones and ICS seems to unlock this capability. Wonder if the Spectrum will be the next one? Anyone see gsm as an available option in networks?
[LG Revolution] TheMuffStuff:
Only global, but that doesnt mean that you cant unlock it to say GSM. The droid 3 is a world phone and I believe GSM/UTMS had to be unlocked.
[LG Revolution] joshw0000:
Yes. I unlocked a D3 and my little brother is using it on AT&T 3G.

Is your Spectrum unlocked for Australia carriers? Are those CDMA or GSM?
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
You don't need to select the tot from phone booth.

When you select the file for the regular update place *.* click enter in the bar and it will show all files.

Btw Filefactory sucks haha. 80% of the time it says file missing.

Even with a Premium Account they suck wow. 7 Hours left for download and its not my internet sense i just downloaded itunes in 10 secs. I suggest someone place this on a new host.

I'm downloading it form a free download site in china and its faster then this ahaha 2 hrs for the one in china and now 12 hours from FileFactory.
[LG Revolution] :
Nice to see you here ...
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
Thanks, been extremely busy sense I took a week from work off now making it up :( I still have to fix the VS910 Test mode repair.

Now don't flame me on this part

VS920 ICS From China Site

VS920 China Site

I don't know if this a mirrored copy of the original post or not. I just found this by typing the .tot name and sense I didn't mirror it my self and don't know who's post was first I figure I would at least post were I'm getting it form.

File Factory Premium Account = 12 KB/s

China Site = 50 KB/s

Both slow sites but 2 hrs is far better then 15hrs.

I will be canceling my new File Factory account as it is the most worthless site I have ever been to.
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
Well, I got through all the updateing, something must of gone wrong, as IMEI was single zero'd after the img flash and verizon's network listed phone as not recognized.

Sadly I didn't back up key files like fool or create any images to recover from.

Anywho, couldn't figure much more out after hours of searching, so flashed back and getting a replacement.

Damn my luck/foolishness.

ICS however worked very nice on the Spectrum, much smoother stock than 2.3.5, can not wait for the official release, or me to not be stupid on my backups. :D
[LG Revolution] joshw0000:
You may or may not have checked this but are you in airplane mode? I completed reverted my old G'Nex a while back and called Verizon with the same issue. I literally smacked my forehead when they asked if I was in airplane mode. It causes all of the symptoms you described.
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
Nope, IMEI literally reads 0, even through QPST hex. I am not wise enough to change it back manually.

The service of course comes in and out, 3g works, get some random working things on restart, then the network flags as unknown and drops it all. Went into Verizon and of course they couldn't do anything, so I'm expecting a replacement unless I somehow get this working, just looks grim.

From other forums, it seems I am not alone, I have no further idea of how to fix this, besides a nv backup? This is my first android(a bit of previous knowledge with CDMA phones and the software to edit, since the days of the first RAZR, last phone was the enVTouch), I was surprised I got as far as I did... lol
[LG Revolution] yalkowni:
Who ever has this flashed can they check if it has the option to enable GSM mode?
[LG Revolution] TheMuffStuff:
Yasin, it doesnt. I think its going to need to be unlocked and have a new radio or something. Not sure how it works.
[LG Revolution] :
he had a noob moment lol ;)
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
Sure sure did. No can write NAS, have NO clue what I'm doing in NV editor, though I can get it connecting and reading. I'm sure one of you fine smart persons could get through it, but I'm also pretty sure that is a subject not talked about.
[LG Revolution] yalkowni:
I was thinking that cause the new leak for the razr had a GSM option
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
Is it me or is there no 4g when on this ICS. I have not seen it yet and the network is hella slow on 3g when used to 4g. Also it appears that I may not have a 4g connection after going back to my Nandroid, maybe because of the whole new radio theory that was going around. I guess that is why it is so hard to find the "update" in the first place and why it is not ready to be released into the wild. Other than that ICS is working awesome.

I have not figured out how to root it yet after playing with some things, so I think I am going back to BrokenOut for now until the OTA and Root release or a ROM come out.
[LG Revolution] TheMuffStuff:
There is only a global option.
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
Hope you have a nandroid of your previous rom. >.>
[LG Revolution] MoGotti2:
Can somebody please explain to me how I can get this on my phone step by step..... or shoot me an e-mail taramgwyn1@gmail.com:mad:
[LG Revolution] imucarmen:
honestly man you don't want to right now, it's not ready and even highly skilled guys are having issues with their phones even after returning back to stock. You really don't want to mess with this yet.

Be patient and we may have a better copy in soon. I personally know of several devs working on making this a reality so just hold out for now. There will also most likely be an easier way to flash this in the near future as well. And this is not speculation but me reporting what I know to you.
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
+1 It really isn't ready for the main population yet. It is best off in the hands of those that really know what they are doing so we do not have a whole community of people with broken Spectrums. It will happen in due time. We will all be on ICS soon enough.
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
And that time around I won't be in such a rush and will wait for working conformation. :D

Has anyone else had their IMEI's washed out?
[LG Revolution] rockstar490:
... hmm is there really no 4g available? about to find out... flashing the china version... hoping there isn't a difference between that one on filefactory.
[LG Revolution] brandonson112:
Be careful man people are having problems returning to stock
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
I would wait...
[LG Revolution] rockstar490:
*sigh* curiosity shall wait
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
What issues are people having when trying to return to stock. I flashed this and flashed back to stock with 0 issues. 100% revert back to the latest OTA + Radio.
[LG Revolution] cac2us:
backup your NV
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
That one. ^

No NV backup.

Flashed out to ICS tot with LGNPST IMEI 0

Flashed back from tot IMEI 0

No NV backup, mediocre knowledge, GG.
[LG Revolution] :
Taken From Jackpot's POST

READ THE DAMN INSTRUCTIONS PEOPLE!

11. Run "LGNPST"

12. Plug in your phone, use Internet Connection Mode,and enable USB Debugging.

13. Phone should pop up in the list

14. Select the phone and click on the Open folder button inside the .BIN query underneath the COM## details.

15. Since it wants a .bin file, you can open the .TOT file by typing "*.*" inside the File Name query and hitting Enter

16. Select "VS920ZV7.tot" and Click OK

17. Then click on Upgrade

18. Wait a few minutes

19. Voila
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
The thing would not flash normally unless in download mode. I would assume this is what also cause the radio and IMEI faults. :confused:
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
That is exactly what I did. My IMEI is set to 0 as well. I have been working on getting it back but did not backup my NV either...:(, oh well, you live, you learn...
[LG Revolution] :
And I don't happen tto have a device in order to test it out and write a guide or something
[LG Revolution] siulmagic:
hey guys can any of you upload the boot.img? or perhaps the init.rc from the kernels ramdisk.
[LG Revolution] Light_21:
I just flashed this as well to my LG Spectrum, and I have the 'zeroed' IMEI. I'm not plagued with the horrible 3g coverage, and service varies, but outside of a few instances it's been pretty good(No 4g at all though). Is there a possible fix coming in soon, or did I pretty much just screw my phone :'(
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
I'm looking into a fix...
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
Update:

*sighs*

Sorry guys, I don't know.... I tried a similar way I did with the LG Ally when it lost its meid after something like this, but nothing... :/
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
IMEI Shouldn't be an issue to fix. Ill look into it as soon as I charge up the phone.

The reason LGNPST Crashes is 1 of 2 things

1.) That version doesn't support it. I used a lot latter version

2.) Someone said to flash from the phonebook part.. Not really the smartest idea.
[LG Revolution] cac2us:
That's almost enough to get me to want to trade devices with you.

I only use wifi for now. But when the family share data goes into effect I would need it back. Wouldn't be much fun otherwise.

I have been looking into purchasing the Workshop to fix such things.

$199.00 for the deluxe kit.

But from what I read, it will only work on the machine that registers it's SN's of the processor / motherboard / and HDD.

Kinda funny way to get the real thing.
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
Ok, just for a test I blanked out my IMEI and was able to restore it. Ill have a tool up as soon as I get some sleep and figure out the IMEI check sum calculation.

For those that have a zero'd out IMEI can you also check your MEID ?

I blanked out both of mine and was able to recover pretty easily

BTW I do not CONDONE IMEI cloning / changing. There will be security check to verify that the IMEI is indeed 0'd out before it will do anything.
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
The LGNPST tool is showing MEID as "Not Active" I am not sure where to find it within the phone settings, let me know if you need anything else.
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
supraman401,

You can look under the settings, but if LGNPST is showing not active, then your MEID is 0'd out as well.
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
Where is the nv data stored on our phones, everywhere I look points to an EFS folder, I do not see that folder in any root explorer that I use. is it the /etc/firmware/efs1.bin, etc. there are 3 files. Or am I just overlooking something?
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
EFS is stored on qualcomm chipset.
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
Thanks!

BTW how did you restore your IMEI? Qxdm which I've used before gives an error like 'cannot build buffer' or something like that when I try to fix it.

If you rather not say publicly can you shoot me a PM?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[LG Revolution] Steamer86:
I'll take that pm also, lgnpst, qxdm, and qspt are getting me no were, would like to play with the phones a bit while I have a window before I must ship one back.
[LG Revolution] Light_21:
Is it possible if I can also recieve the PM concerning the fix?
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
I wrote my own software to write IMEI back to device. I just need to get the IMEI checksum done and ill up for people to fix there phones.
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
Alright thanks. Any ideas as to why Qxdm wouldn't work?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[LG Revolution] amoamare:
Yes because NV is locked, you can not under normal conditions change, modify, alter pESN/MEID/IMEI on the device.

In order for a write you have to unlock the NV. Once unlocked you can then write.
[LG Revolution] :
thanks reminds me of the good ol' mobile-files.com days lol where we all helped each other not feed off each other
[LG Revolution] supraman401:
Dont forget me please if you are going to blast out PMs for this. Thanks.

EDIT:**Sorry, didn't see that post up there about getting it out.
[LG Revolution] siulmagic:
Hey guys dont know if you read my earlier post but il ask again, the reason im asking for this leaks boot.img is so i can decompile it, and check the init.rc, i need the bootclasspath, in order to port this to my device. i would really appreciate if anyone post there boot.img, or the bootclasspath for that matter .
[LG Revolution] death2all110:

I don't know if anyone else has tested it but I tested a modified version of this leaked which I flashed from CWM and it wouldn't boot though it did go through the install process without an issue. I never got past the LG logo. The dev who made the modifed flashable version said the issue must be with CWM. I'm on version 5.0 and need 5.5, or so I'm told.

We need someone to code a fresh version of CWM based off 5.5

This is my understanding.

If this is correct and someone has the skills to do this, you should post over on android forums spectrum section, and I'm sure you would get some donations for your efforts as we are a very friendly and giving community :]
[LG Revolution] death2all110:
I'll be working on this tonight. But it most likely will not be touch based.

Also whoever told you that told you wrong then. It's the old radio conflicting with the new kernel.

Always choose the Upgrade Tab This will backup NV items

Here's the thing. You link us to instructions that give us 1.2 and outdated packages. Then you finally give us updated packages, but not an updated program. We're all having issues because we're trying to use v1.2 and you're all the way up on 2.5 . Mind sharing the V2.5 installer with us or stop telling us we are doing it wrong, because without the same setup as you, we're only able to do it our way.
