[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
i couldnt agree with you more...i absolutely despise motorola/google/who ever made that decision to lock the photon down i would still right now be using that phone if it wasnt for that...thephoton hands down best hone ive ever owned or seen in action was like a miniature linux based computer i built many of roms strictly and solely from that phone as well as had a lapdock the hdmi dock i mean...woah...incredible equipment....soooooo glad my wife has the same phone (lgog) and is stock locked cause when it rolls out on hers i can scope it out before applying it to mine :) ....

so... maybe thats why we are lack in storage after awhile.....with all the changing from roms and such...you can go from 9gb to 4gb with a simple flash of a rom..... maybe someone (not me im an idiot) needs to look into another exploit for us which frees up that space..if root only took a folder being created which mirrors storage but with root access then if we had another exploit which actually rooted the phone without making a miror would be super beneficial...maybe thats just my crazy head though just what popped in..sorry if im totally wrong and way off

ls970zvc is ready for download on LG server

this waw
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
ya beat me to posting lol .... thnxs know time to see what they screwed up lol ....the only thing im wanting is the radio lol.....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] un1ocked:
Ok, i'll upload the radio image ASAP
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Ya don't gotta but thanks .. I'm trying to let this new ROM finishing baking ....

I've got the update just haven't explored yet ....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] un1ocked:
You can extract the radio image without installing on the phone?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
I've never heard of that before. The folder shouldn't take up any space. It's blank. Also, with TeenyBin, you don't really need to root anymore. You can just flash a ROM and be on your way.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I got access too LG mobile support server, I can pull the tot file and dll if you want, the file was blocked yesterday morning when I tried too pull it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I am pulling the tot and dll file for the LS970ZVC and the LG Flash Tool too use with it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
You can just flash the cab in LGNPST. It'll make the tot and separate everything.

But be warned... depending what they did, your bootloader might end up locked, and you'll probably lose root.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I am sure root will be lost, and bootloader will be harder too unlocked, i just wanted too let people know what was going on.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
No worries. Just letting you, or anybody else who might do this know the risks.

I'm DL this also, but it's taking forever!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
The tot file is over 1.3 GB , I got mine from LG Mobile Tools since I am listed a Cell Phone Dealer
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
They sure did fix auto brightness sensors, wifi and signal locks on better and they updated most the pre installed apps from google
[Sprint LG Optimus G] un1ocked:
Hahaha, my connection is so slow. I wonder if i can get it finished today
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
I have it installed now also. Going to play with it shortly.

Sad part is, it's the same modem/radio. Hopefully its still better as you said.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
That is what was saying about this update it is all about making tweaks too the phone in the this update
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
So, is it guaranteed that we're gonna get 4.3?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
Not at this time, This update was about performance issues, fixing connecting to data and wifi and updated some of the google apps. still remain 4.1.2 for now. We should see 4.3 by end of 4th qtr 2013
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
BTW... fiddy619 Universal root still works!!!

I'll check FreeGee in a while.

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------

FreeGee needs to be updated. I sent the file to Shelnut2 through Freegee. Hopefully everything will be just fine.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I uploaded the official tot and dll too androidfilehost if anybody cares about it let me know
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Agimax:
Is the send under '10 character message fail' bug fixed?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Another hour or two, and i will too.

---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

If you mean sending a text with just 1 letter, then yes. I sent a 1 letter text to myself and got it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Agimax:
Sweet, this was the most annoying bug i had encountered, thanks for checking!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
So basically they just mesed with the os to give better data lock? I know I can flash the mako radio and it improves my WiFi and signal by like 4-6 times depending on ROM ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Yup, per tommyjoesanders. My reception doesn't seem any better though. But then I used the older .dll (shouldn't make a difference) And I have really bad reception where I'm at anyway. Maybe that mako radio might be the way to go.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
I've been able to use nexus 4 radio and att optimus g radio... Att radio is just as bad as ours ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Not to sidetrack this thread but...

Are you able to use that radio on Stock? CM based? And are there any issues or things we would have to be careful with, or change?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
I've been able to flash on any ROM and it still gives u the CDMA options...they are pretty universal it seems from lg .. Only differences would be on some devices is where it flashes the radio ...I know the nexus uses different partion scheme or labels...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I did ##786# after I got a full boot and hard reset everything, It might help you
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
With approval from tommyjoesanders, we have a link to the ZVC.bin here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2050582
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Thanxs but I been there multiple times... I like the nexus radio it improved my WiFi connection and speed and it improved my signal lock ...same dl speeds and about same signal ratio but it holds it a lot better ....dont flash anything tho based on just what i say ... i know the newest mako radio doesnt work so im playing with a few others ... i will make a thread when i get everything in order ....

stupid question, what file do we change from tot to bin? never mind im a dumba** lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
Everybody that is flashing this firmware , Please use LGNPST software and make sure you use the dll that has been around. and change tot to bin extension for now. I am writing a guide how to flash firmware using LG FlashTool
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
Looking forward to that guide!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] un1ocked:
My dll file for lgnpst did not work this time, the usual one for zvb and older
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I will have the guide and all files needed on Friday the 13rd. All files and flashtool and dll are official from LG. I will be making a new thread under android development. So keep checking there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gitit20:
I am sure some one will have a stock rooted version of this update up soon I have had no problems with brightens or radio it seems been perfect with the zvb
[Sprint LG Optimus G] foxsdaddy67:
So does freegee work work with this?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Does now. :)

Edit. teeny bins are cleared to work also
[Sprint LG Optimus G] neno2323:

Did they fix the "message not sent" issue?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Did this update any firmware or just software ?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
This update fixed performance issues
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
ok basically just stock software optimization... really wouldnt benefit going to stock zvc then back to chameleon ?

[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
Oh wow...so you're getting ZVC?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
Yep. Installed it...nothing changed. Gotta reroot and unlock again but Engine95 said freegee works with zvc
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sanchezrd13:
So it will affect our rooting? I went through all of the posts on the new update ZVC, but can't figure out whether to do it or not. I don't want to lose my rooting.:confused:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
You're gonna lose root. But you can reroot and unlock using the same methods. I updated to ZVC today, rerooted and unlocked and now I'm running Beanstalk 4.3
[Sprint LG Optimus G] theycallmetony:
Auto-Brightness

Been on a mission to fix an automatic brightness issue that cropped up for me since going AOSP (specifically CM10.1, 10.2, AOKP ms2, and several other variants) several months ago.

Haven't found anyone else experiencing this issue: after some device use (I was never able to pinpoint the exact cause), the light sensor would no longer determine lux. In turn, auto-brightness went wacky and the screen on/off action would take several more seconds than usual (like lag). The Lux app's debug tool would tell me "light source unreadable" (or something similar) and CM's built-in auto-brightness adjustment "current light sensor value" would be blank.

tommyjoesanders' post about ZVC fixing auto-brightness has made me really excited! Just went back to stock, updated to ZVC, going to test for a couple days, root 'n flash CM10.2, test for another couple of days, then post findings.

tl;dr - Lux not reading on AOSP ROMs. Back to stock, installing ZVC update, testing light sensor :fingers-crossed:

*EDIT: Further testing concludes a hardware issue. Noticed stronger 3G/4G with ZVC though (placebo?).
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gitit20:
Will there be a stock rooted ZVC update zip that we can just flash like all the other updates?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
What does this update fix exactly? I have no SMS issues or WiFi issues. I do have signal and data issues but that's not the phone, it's just sprint in my 4g-less area

Sent from my "tweaked" LS970
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jptech:
seconded

I too am waiting for the stock rooted flashable.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Eventually. I don't think anybody is in a hurry to make it since it's just a software update. Besides, most people ate running CM based ROMs now.

Your situation sounds like mine. Signal still isn't any better IMO, they did fix less than 10 char texts. Mostly just performance enhancements.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
I've sent plenty of texts that were less than 10 characters. Sounds like I will ignore this update. Not worth redoing everything

Sent from my "tweaked" LS970
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gitit20:
I am in the same boat as you but its damn annoying I keep getting a notice to install it

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

Thanks will prob just wait for that every CM rom I have tried has bugs just tried 10.2 and you could not power on the phone when it was plugged into the charger and was getting force closes and so on
[Sprint LG Optimus G] iamterence:
Anyone know if the lag has been fixed in ZVC? ZVB wasn't really all that laggy to be honest, but it had it's moments. And sometimes typing up things would slow down the phone tremendously for some odd reason, especially with texts and using the Google AOSP keyboard. I don't know if it was a software issue or an issue with the keyboard itself.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
That should come between Jan and march of 2014 and it should be 4.3 . Will know more Christmas time
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sanchezrd13:
I got the notice on my phone. I clicked on it to install it. It took me to TWERP! What did I do wrong? Do I have to unroot first? Please help!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
This update seems to work through TWRP. If you update, you'll lose root and unlock. But you can get it back same as ZVB.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] quattrosan:
I got the OTA update but my wife didn't. Any way to force OTA?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
I received the update also but when I went to install it went to TWRP and acted like it was installing said it finished so I rebooted. Everything was fine except it didn't update. I'm rooted but on stock rom. And also it now won't show my update. I keep refreshing it but I get nothing.

Idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gentlemenace:
I don't know... this phone really is finicky. I updated by OTA through TWRP and everything turned out fine. Well, I lost root and my boot loader was re-locked but that was easy to fix so yeah. :confused:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] willonuts:
Dont install the update

If your phone is rooted and unlocked as mines is . don't install the VC update. I did while traveling to Arkansas to and it locked my bootloader and unrooted my darn phone However; I travel with my laptop so I used LGNPST after I got in download mode and Blessed my phone again and I have been opting out of installing it since.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] neno2323:
Yeah we know about this... no probs
[Sprint LG Optimus G] willonuts:
Cool. Do you know where i can get the .bin file to unlock and reroot??
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Same files as ZVB. Root and unlock is the same.

Ok. Thank you. I'll get on the laptop and hit the thanks button
[Sprint LG Optimus G] honest1212:
I am running lifeless ROM 14 and I am getting notification for the upgrade. Should I go ahead?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] harishmenace:
It won't update on lifeless rom, you need to be on stock rom. Rooted and unlocked doesn't matter, just need to be on stock.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stealth919:
Well I decided to just LGNST whatever back to what I had on hand which was ZV9, then took the 480mb update to ZVB, then imediatly took the update to ZVC. After I imediatly ##72786# to make sure all data connections were up to date...I have to say I could't be happier even if I don't have root right now just because I haven't got around to it.

A few cool things besides the fixxes they listed, 1-the Media player from ZV9 is back with built in equalizer, 2-Flash control on camera is still whacked UNLESS you touch the screen before the shot so you get the small focus square-then you get the accurate control of flash we had with ZV9, 3-WiFi enables right away without having to reboot phone and picks up locations I couldn't seem to get it to see before.

Seemed in the past after I rooted even just doing that would cause weired hickups like the too hot to run full display brightness even when it wasn't hot. I may just leave it, but I miss my WiFi Tether though lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
I gotta question for ya. Since you compiled the zvc kernel, do you also tweak/build kernels? Here's to hoping so. :beer:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] shabbypenguin:
ive done a few custom kernels in the past
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
I'm assuming zvc kernel is different from zvb.

I'm wondering if you had any intention to customize zvc? There's a few of us that still like stock.

CM is nice, but Lg stock isn't bad.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] shabbypenguin:
i may, right now im a bit behind on things, my computer took a crap on me and it was about 4 days ago i got it fixed. i port recovery to a lot of devices and ive got a backlog on those and devices that need to get help with root.

if i do anything it will probably just be kernel source of zvc and cherry pick the things i want out of someones abandon'd older kernel. mysteryemotionz is trying to get me to take over his since he no longer has an lgog.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Root/recovery is much more important than a custom kernel.

So if you ever get bored, think about it.

mysteryemotions was working with EvolutionMod on the Liberty kernel. That was for ZVB. And it was very nice.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
shabbypenguin do you happen to have a copy of your stock ZVC kernel? Mine seems to have gotten damaged somehow and its only supporting 1GHz rather than stock 1.5GHz. No idea whats going on there, but i just noticed that. By default this LG Optimus G came clocked at 1GHz, my broken one always at stock 1.5GHz and my first one was 1.3GHz by default. Dunno whats the case, but I really dont want to flash to stock as I have many of my apps on here, etc. Or is there a way I can perhaps steal it from a ZVC stock rom and push it to my device???

MICROSOFT.WINDOWS.RT.8.1.WITH.OFFICE.2013.RT.RTM.WOA.ENGLISH.DVD-WZT

MICROSOFT.WINDOWS.RT.8.1.ADK.KIT.WOA.RTM-WZT

Thats all I want to say
[Windows RT General] ausshir:
Anyone tried it yet? Looks like a risky process.
[Windows RT General] Osprey00:
Thanks. Unfortunately, what I gather from what I'm reading is that that image does not contain drivers. You need to manually add the drivers to the image before you install. If you don't, you'll brick your tablet, according to WZT. People may want wait a little bit until there are clear directions and a few people who can verify that they worked (i.e. that they installed 8.1 without any problems).

Additional note: It sounds like the driver package is only for the Surface RT, so users with other Windows RT tablets (ex. ASUS VivoTab RT) may brick their tablets if they try to use it. They'll have to wait until someone releases a driver package for their model (which WZT says might have to be taken from the Preview build).
[Windows RT General] jhoff80:
This part isn't actually true, for what it's worth- it's included with the main download.
[Windows RT General] Osprey00:
Oh, OK. I didn't catch that. They made it appear as though it was a separate download. Ah, you're right: there they are.
[Windows RT General] windowsrtc:
just run setup.exe

all drivers for surface are build in

BTW:I have rollback to 8.0 again
[Windows RT General] mamaich:
It is very difficult to brick an RT device. You can always recover it if you can boot to USB, and you have a recovery image and familiar with windows command line tools (diskpart, dism and so on).

Unfortunatley I'm on a business trip and can't create an upgrade instruction for VivoTab users. But there is nothing difficult - as we already have all needed drivers on a recovery partition, and all you need - just insert them into WIM using the Wzor's instructions from his original post on ru-board.
[Windows RT General] derausgewanderte:
Installed this tonight. Note that drivers are NOT included in the iso from Wzor.

Extract boot.wim and install.wim from Wzor's iso, inject Wzor's RTM drivers via dism, commit, put boot.wim and install.wim with drivers back into iso, image to USB drive. I installed from within RT using setup (keeping nothing).

You have to use the default key on installation. You need to find out your actual RT key before you do this otherwise you end up with a non-activated RT 8.1 and no key. Export DigitalProductId and DigitalProductId4 from HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion and obtain your key. Instructions on how to here.

Works great. In the short amount of time I've been testing everything works perfectly OK, including all my accessories. (discussion here).
[Windows RT General] Osprey00:
I figured as much, but not everyone may have the recovery image or the knowledge, and, for them, a dead device that they're unable to recover is as good as a brick. Regardless, I just wanted to pass along the same language that WZT used so that I'm not guilty of misrepresenting the risks or responsible if someone can't fix what he got himself into.

Thanks for your instructions and verifying that it works. The original instructions don't mention writing down your current key first. While I likely would've done that anyways, it's re-assuring to see it in writing, just in case. I might give this a go tomorrow.
[Windows RT General] Osprey00:
FYI, there's now an ISO with the Surface RT drivers baked in, so that users don't have to use DISM to add them manually. The release name is:

DRIVERS FOR SURFACE RT ONLY___MICROSOFT WINDOWS RT 8 1 WITH OFFICE 2013 RT RTM WOA ENGLISH DVD-WZT

Note that it's only for the Surface RT, not other RT tablets.

Also note that you need the installation key, and, also, before installation, you need to export and decrypt your retail 8.0 key. Information on that is available here
[Windows RT General] derausgewanderte:
and here is the direct link to Osprey00's post with a way of getting the key if you only have your RT.
[Windows RT General] huslterose:
Good news!

I'll just wait till some skillful surface owner gets the jailbreak and then update!
[Windows RT General] Osprey00:
[EDIT: Never mind. I misunderstood.]

I don't follow. There's nothing to "jailbreak" and it can't get much easier than it is now (outside of simply waiting until Microsoft rolls out 8.1 via Automatic Updates). You just follow instructions to find out your 8.0 key, install the 8.1+drivers ISO (not the one in the OP; the one that I listed a few posts up) with a general installation key, then activate 8.1 with your 8.0 key.
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
I think he is referring to the lack of jailbreak on 8.1 for unsigned desktop apps - a feature which should have been in the OS from the start, instead microsoft wasted time patching the exploit the jailbreak used and destroyed the usefulness of the tablet for some.

He was probably intending to say something along the lines of him not updating to 8.1 until after someone makes a new jailbreak for it.

If you can live without the jailbreak, thats fine. Windows store is a bit too limited in my opinion, but it will grow (still gutted they blocked access to both localhost for network connections and COM ports in windows apps though).
