After reading the thread, I am still a bit confused..

I am on stock ATT JB Rom, but I flashed it through recovery, not LGNPST or OTA. I would like to try the AOSP 4.2.2 ROM. From what I understand, I have LGNPST JB ROM in order to do that. It seems like using TeenyBin will allow me to do the same thing. Is this correct? Will this overwrite my system and/or internal memory?

Thanks
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Nastybutler:
When you use LGNPST, instead of telling it to flash the JB bin, you just flash the TeenyBin instead. It won't overwrite your system or internal memory. You shouldn't be able to tell anything happened when you boot back up after it's finished. The changes are all behind the scenes as it were. However, you can now flash any ROM that says you need OTA JB.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tenchu_712:
hm.. i follow the tutorial but LGNPST keeps saying this, plz help :(

my phone can boot into rom, but it can't enter recovery, fastboot zz
[AT&T LG Optimus G] benzersizadam:
i got blank screen flashed but nothing changed. did i perm bricked ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
havent seen that error before. are you using an english version of windows... or do you have language set for something else?

the lgnpst guide in the first post contains a link to a windows 7 virtual machine that has lgnpst pre-installed and working. I suggest going that route if you can't get rid of the lgnpst errors.

you will need to be much more specific. does download mode work? id assume yes since you said you flashed this.. but i cant assume these days...

and u tried both normal bin and altbin? and you're not trying to boot up normally after right? you should be trying to boot into fastboot.

if download mode works.. and u flash altbin... fastboot HAS to work. otherwise you're doing it wrong.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dimasp6:
Could I go back to stock and flash this and then restore a backup of let's say snowjb that I'm currently running on? Or would that mess things up?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
you could.. but thats an unneeded step. flash this... boot into recovery.. flash snowjb. why bother going to stock first?

but yes.. you could do exactly what u said.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dimasp6:
I assumed we have to Lgnpst back to stock?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bassitone:
If you're going back to stock anyway, you might as well just LGNPST the official OTA .tot file and skip this magical TeenyBin altogether.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jmaserang:
Flashed of bin phone gets stuck on lg screen flashed alt.bin and I get into fast boot but not recovery is there something else I'm supposed to flash before the bin file?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
strange. so after flashing the altbin you should now be able to see the fastboot menus when selecting with the volume buttons. when you select "recovery" and hit the power button... what happens? black screen? reboot? back to fastboot?

not sure why it would get fastboot working but not recovery.. was something wrong with the phone prior to this?

you could try flashing a recovery.img file using fastboot if nothing else works. if that fails.. somethings "wrong" with the phone... i would maybe try flashing a full stock .bin at that point.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] :
First TeenyBin didn't work, stuck at LG logo. Used the altbin and it worked! The instruction were really clear, you cannot mess this up.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] smokarz:
Hey guys,

I am running SnowJB, but I want to flashed the new AOSP Rootbox ROM.

So flashed teenybin, then flashed rom?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] smokarz:
Cool, thanks.

Just making sure, I don't need to flash the AT&T official update?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mong8se:
You can LGNPST teenybin and then flash the ROM of your choice, no need for the official update.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] big_dog1968:
Can't get it to work. I had SnowJB on it and was told I needed to run LGNPST + Teenybin. It goes through process, but when it reboots it stays on LG Logo. The instructions said I had to hold vol down and power to get into recovery, but it does nothing. I already had TWRP installed. What can I do? Tried IRC, but nobody there.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
flash teenybin altbin. and its vol up + power for fastboot. Then from fastboot.. volume down twice then power button to enter recovery(same method after all unlocks).

all of this is mentioned in the first post.

vol down + power is only for STOCK recovery after using STOCK lgnpst bins(or already on stock).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] big_dog1968:
Altbin worked. Thanks. I had tried the first recommended teenybin and it hadn't worked and was just a logo. Was worried. Altbin worked fine. Now running CFX. Ready to try others.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Ciloteille:
I cant flash this at all, I downloaded lgnpst 1.3 and don't have the required ls970.dll. I also can't obtain it through irc as it boot/bans me. And won't let me gain access to the server at all. Anyone able to help me on a direct download of that one little file? If someone has it please let me know. Irc channel seems to hate me loading it on my phone. As I only have that for the mean time.

Id really like to flash this bin. :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gman87:
Ok so I lgnpst 20j and I was having problems with camera not connecting and internal storage having 0 space available

I also tried the flashable by snow leopard same thing

So I lgnpst'd back to 20j and tried teenybin and wasn't able to boot up so tried alt teenybin and was able to boot up but same problem persisted with internal storage and camera

Anyone have any suggestions on methods I can try to fix this?

Edit: I also tried to update directly via software update but kept getting an authentication error idk if that has anything to do with my phone being on T-Mobile
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mbonus:
Lgnpst back to 11c, run camera fix for n4 converts, then teeny bin
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gman87:
camera works fine on 11c and also the internal storage

and also i never did the n4 conversion
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
The camera fix process should sort out your zero internal storage problem.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gman87:
thank you both totally fixed my problem

didnt bother checking it since it was for n4 fix but sure enough it resolved it :D
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Ciloteille:
Why when I try to flash this will it not do anything? Stays at 0% and won't progress. I eve waited for it to load 5+ minutes. Will it not flash because battery sits at 30 or I don't have lgnpst properly installed? I have all the correct files and in dll mode. Any insight to what it might be? ( yes drivers are installed correctly )
[AT&T LG Optimus G] iceman99393:
Is the rpm tz update required? I rooted, unlocked, ran aosp no problem. Am I missing something? Thanks
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
If you got the jb ota from att it was updated then, or you may have run an older aosp that didn't require the tz.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Oscar9018:
Hi,I have a question...can I flash the altbin on my Stock JB and back to it normally after reboot?? I don't want to change the rom for a while but I want to flash the altbin to solve the problem of the screen on while the phone is turn off and charging...thanks
[AT&T LG Optimus G] guapinoy:
alt-bin teeny just saved my Optimus! Thanks so much. No one should really OC this thing, it gets angry at you :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Level99:
Okay, first off, major thanks for teenybin. Saved my phone while I was on a long trip without any kind of real data access and let the full tot behind at home :)

I was just wondering how I can get LGNPST to work again now that I've used teenybin. I ended up needing to flash the altbin in order to get out of bootloop, but now when I try the download mode keys, it gets me to the n4 style bootloader and lgnpst doesn't show anything as being in emergency mode.

I'm hesitant to do anything that would brick my phone so any devs help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: nevermind, I am an idiot and forgot how to do download mode in my stupidity :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
ur prob doing the combo for download mode wrong... or keeping usb plugged in. power off phone... unplug usb... hold vol - + then plus in usb. if that fails.... unplug usb/power off... then hold vol - + then while holding the vol keys... press the power button at the same time as inserting usb cable.

keep at it.. it'll work... then once in download mode lgnpst will work.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] CB620:
Using windows 8 and can't find the DLL when inside lgnpst
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Neroga:
Well, went back to stock and used this to unlock the bootloader. Now left with a hard bricked LGOG. QHSUSB_DLOAD ftw! Guess it's time to find a new phone lol.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Android Pizza:
Hey, I was directed here from the Q&A section...I want to upgrade my brother's OG to JB so he can flash ROMs that require you to be on JB, but the OTA fails at 3% and gives an error...I think it's because he deleted/modified some system files.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
I directed you here. I will put what I think the process is and someone can either confirm or correct me.

1. Install LGNPST (link)

2. Install drivers

3. Download Teenybin (I recommend going for the Alt teenybin first. I have seen more luck with it.)

4. Download desired ROM and GAPPS if needed (Put both on the sd card of your phone)

5. Connect phone in download mode and flash the Teenybin using LGNPST.

6. Once finished, boot up into Fastboot then Recovery (Volume Up + Power for fastboot, then volume down twice and hit power for recovery)

7. Follow ROM install instructions like normal.

Again I would wait for someone to correct any mistakes I made but I think that is the correct process.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] chrisliphart:
So... Yes, I was an idiot and did TeenyBin over an N4 conversion. How I did so is because I already had the TeenyBin files on my computer, and I was trying to restore a conversion that was frankly a PITA, and instead of going back to stock and then starting over to get to a custom ROM, I figured I'd shortcut it with TeenyBin. I know, it's my own fault for assuming it'd work and not checking the TeenyBin thread before I bricked the phone.

My question is, has anyone recovered from this? The phone won't turn off (the screen is off, but it's non-responsive to button pressing; I know it's on because my computer makes a sound when it I plug it in, but nothing at all comes up under Device Manager. Right now, I'm waiting however long this will take to completely discharge the battery and I'm hoping I can put it back into Download Mode. IF I can, and that's a BIG IF, should I LGNPST the N4 conversion again, then LGNPST the stock file back before doing TeenyBin again?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Neroga:
If your computer says anything about the driver for QHSUSB_DLOAD then you're hard bricked. Happened to me and I just got my replacement. Except I was on stock 4.1.2 when the teenybin gave me a brick. But alas, here I am. About to try again lol.

Sent from my LG-E970
[AT&T LG Optimus G] chrisliphart:
Wait, found it. On my computer it says "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008". Which, when I look at properties of that, is the QHSUSB_DLOAD deal. Ah well. This is what I get for being an idiot. lol
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Neroga:
Had the same thing but I had to download the QHSUSB_DLOAD driver and got stuck there. Found the driver for the 9008 but that didn't do anything, either.

I used this to root and unlock my phone... this is way easier than using the normal method of rooting and then using freegee. in fact soft bricked my phone every time I used freegee

Absolutely awesome :D

The same to me. Only way is use Alt Teeny bin

E970 boot problem

Hi ,

My E970 can't boot after Installing "kernelsk8-v2.2-ATTLGOG " , I was usingSNOW JB 1.1 , I can go to recovery ,

Nedd help to resolve this boot proble, can install ROM from recovery , every time STUC after LG logo.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] OMGMatrix:
That's because you're installing an ICS kernel on a JB rom.

Why did you think that would work?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zykhan:
E970 boot problem

Now whats the solution , I also tried "kernel-lgog-jb-20130409-dvhexer" , but , no success.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
teenybin wont help you. this is a teenybin thread. you arent softbricked... softbrick = cant boot up into anything but download mode. you can get into recovery just fine.

either reflash the rom. or lgnpst + full stock bin to go back to stock.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zykhan:
I tried "cm-10.1-20130409-dvhexer-mako-lgog" as well,

Now downloading SNOW JB, will try and update, never used LGNPST before .

Reflash SNOWJB and every thing is fine now, thanks for support.

actually I have problem this ROM is , some time other side can't hear me properly, is it a known issue , pl. recommend any other stable ROM

thanks
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mikl0018:
May have made a mistake...

I think I unplugged my phone too fast from LGNPST... I say the progress bar go to 67% or so and then saw my phone restart so I unplugged it - didn't wait for it to fully come back on I think - would that matter? Now I only see the LG logo on the screen. I don't think I can get to fastboot or download mode now. Is there a way around this?

Thank you,

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

My apologies - the original bin didn't work for me but the alt did. Actually pressing just the vol up/down buttons got me back into download so I could proceed with LGNPST.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] raydm:
hi, so i did unlock my e970 using freegee app sbl method. i was having data problems on tmobile. so i run LGNPST 10c and did the ota to jelly bean. i thought all is golden but data problems presist. now i cant boot into recovery or bootloader, i understand alt bin will give me those back but i want to stays on this stock rom for now, is alt bin will force me to do twrp flash to any rom or will i be able to use this rom?

also can i just do 20j LGNPST over this and have everything back to stock without data problem ?

thanks in advance.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
use 20j stock bin with lgnpst. it will put u on stock, altho it will also unroot you and relock your bootloader.

teenybin is only for ppl that cant get into custom recovery(twrp) and for ppl that want to flash rom zips.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Mike724:
I have n4 converted a few times, but I just LGNPST'd to 20j (stock jelly bean). All of the root methods aren't working for me.. would I be safe using this? Or does the unconvert from n4 not fully unconvert?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
I really cant say one way or the other. We do not support n4 convert... some ppl see bricks.. some dont. Using TeenyBin on a device that's been converted(at any point) is a potential risk.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] manojcitc:
I am on stock 4.0.4 with rooted and unlocked with twrp installed with Freegee ...

Now i want to upgrade to 4.1.2 and i have downloaded file like this

should i use .zip or .tot one.....:(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
Extract the .tot and rename it to .bin and it should be work.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
ive got a problem:(

i did all this and now..i have nothing as recovery:( just google screen the black screen i cant get in no matter what i relocked then reunlocked and still nothing:( guys please help
[AT&T LG Optimus G] wakko222:
First question - Did you also try the teenybin(alt) file? I had no recovery with just teenybin. I had to use teenybin(alt).

Second suggestion - I thought I had bricked mine as I was having trouble getting into recovery. I finally just held down the volume-up button and kept holding the power button. It took me a few times. I kept feeling haptic feedback, so I knew it had to be doing something. After a few tries I finally go to the recovery screen.

Third suggestion - Flash back to stock, re-root, and spend the $1 on the FreeGee app. Much simpler, cheap, and working again today (as of 8/17/13 8:00AM MDT.)

You probably did all this, but that it what my experience was.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
Ok I used the teenybin and alt with orgiginal it didnt boot second I flashed back to stock still same thing
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
teenybin isnt made to make your phone boot back into the rom. teenybin is made for ppl who are softbricked who just want to get back into TWRP recovery so they can flash a custom rom. if you have flashed teenybin alt... then you should be able to boot into fastboot and recovery. and from there.. you'd flash a custom rom zip. if you cant boot into fastboot or recovery then youre either doing it wrong... or your battery is ultra dead.. a flashing red led is usually an indicator of ultra dead battery. in the case of the ultra dead battery... you may need to charge it on wall charger.. or you may need to actually remove the battery for a few seconds then put it back together.

if you want to get back to stock rom... then the full stock bin with lgnpst is the way to go.. not teenybin.

you havent given us many details to even undertand fully what you are doing. why are you flashing teenybin? what is your goal? is your phone soft bricked?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
Well I installed freegee paid and unlocked when I went to reboot it soft bricked I then flashed the teeny bin didnt boot or go to recovery so I went to alt bin it unlocked my phone and booted..but no recovery it says google then the screen turns off I have to hold the power button to turn it off then turn the phone on so I flashed the stock bin and re unlocked with freegee no soft brick but still..nothing its like I dont have a recovery at all after I click recovery absolutely nothing
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
Do you know how to boot into recovery? You're supposed to hold down the volume up button, BEFORE the google symbol appears. And then you should be in the loader and can use the volume rocker to choose the option for recovery, then press power again to get into TWRP.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
I tried that and yes I know how but it still goes from bootloader to dead screen
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
Then how do you know you did the teenybin flash correctly? Sounds like you did it wrong.

It's even in the instructions, lol.

5. Nothing working? You're doing it wrong. Did you read this entire post... including everything under the "Additional Information" section at bottom?

I'm not trying to troll here, it's self explanatory, you just got read everything and do what it says, not what you think it says. Try again if it's not working. At some point, you're doing it wrong happened.

And re-reading over your posts, is there something you are not telling? You soft bricked with freegee and lgnpst also doesn't work? Everything you try fails? Seems there is more to this.

- I don't understand how you can reflash to stock if you don't have recovery unless you are using lgnpst. But then you try freegee again, why would you teenybin again? That doesn't make any sense to me. Freegee install TWRP also.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
No lgnst worked fine it flashed stock and teenybin and I know the teenybin worked cause the second one let me boot nothing really failed except the first one

---------- Post added at 02:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ----------

Look guys I used teenybins right it flqshed correctly everything works perfect except when I go to go into recovery there nothing I have no problem getting into bootloader and no problem flashing I flashed stock from back onto thinking maybe I had two recoverys on it and it was locked up so I used freegee again and it bricked so I used teenybins and the aa one didnt work at all no bootloader or boot then flashed alt and it booted but ..no recovery why is that?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
if you flashed teenybin altbin and then cant get into recovery... then I have no clue why its not working.

try to install a recovery image file thru fastboot. boot into bootloader.. connect phone to computer via usb cable.. and issue the fastboot command:

fastboot flash recovery filenamehere.img

google for more fastboot info if you need it. if recovery still doesnt work after that.. then it sounds like your phone hardware is messed up.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
I'll try again tonight and post my results
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
uber noob

im gonna sound like an uber noob on this question but how exactly do you install fasboot drivers cause

all i get is waiting for device

edit: this damn phones really starting to work my nerves i cant flash because my fastboot wont work right i did the command and it just sits there saying waiting for device i installed sdk and google usb drivers and all in sdk but no luck i get nothing i could really use some help or its going to go in the fireplace next
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
Now I can't hard reset..wtf
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
Sorry, but dude... TeenyBin doesn't work with N4 conversion. On the teenybin thread it says and I quote "brick city"

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------

Also, you don't use freegee to unlock after a N4 convert. It specifically say your phone IS a Nexus 4. So you root/unlock with nexus 4 equivalent. Did you read the entire thread? I think you should flash completely to stock at&t to convert back, if you still can access download mode

worked perfectly. Thanks!
