[How-To] Automated Rooting of LS670ZVD/ZVH/ZVJ

**sfhub** · 05-11-2012, 08:19 PM

I don't believe thunderrom would have flashed the ZVJ modem even if your ROM says ZVJ for modem

I did not add that feature to the install script, you might have a hacked version.

No frustration. I just dropped my phone out of my bag when I was strapping my son into his car seat and my wife just......well, it's a grease spot on the street now.

THANKS for the great write up.....worked like a charm. Easy as 123

**mbwdoran** · 05-19-2012, 10:55 PM

Is there any way to use this on a Mac (which don't run .bat files)?

I have ZVH root and I'm trying to get ZVJ root to use HydroRom.

Okay everything worked but I have no data....... Any ideas.... Also a 1 bar signal that used to be three to four bars.......

I did Step A with no problems.
When I try to do Step B, and I get "error: more than one device and emulator".

I am running WinXP.

Here is the full log:

Just a quick question, are there any new roms as of 6/3/2012? Im new to flashing roms and i would like to see what ingenuity our android devs have. Ive seen some amazing stuff. Surprise me?

**wormy987123** · 06-03-2012, 05:10 PM

It all depends on what baseband you have. If on zvj there is hydrorom, Dante rom, and I think its called ginger rom, if on zvd you could try thekravens cm9 or cm7 it just depends on your taste in rom flavors

I figured out my "error: more than one device and emulator" problem.
To fix it, I uninstalled the LG Mobile driver from my PC, ran Ccleaner on my registry, and reinstalled the driver. Before I had just updated the driver without uninstalling it first.

**chevymanmike** · 06-17-2012, 01:51 PM

looks like a good write up, can wait to do, have to downgrade first to root, phones already are on ZVJ

**jadams360** · 06-22-2012, 10:23 PM

Three days of suffering over! Thanks! This was the only method i could get to work after accidentally updating my phone and loosing root. Worked perfect on my optimus s.

**Trastion** · 06-24-2012, 12:32 PM

I seem to be on ZVJ now but I cannot get the SU part to work. I just keep getting the errors below.

I just repeated step B for the 11th time because it reboots straight to android. I exited activation to reenable debugging the first time, even though it still activated because VM came through while it was pushing. Is this a normal amount of reboots? It's pretty quick to push (just pushed 20672490 bytes in 27.921 seconds) and then reboots without lag. Can I try to get into recovery manually? I don't wanna so anything iffy. This is for my parents phones, I have an EVO and these optimises have given me so much extra work comparatively so I can really empathize with all your assumingly tedious dev work so thanks for that btw. They just need a couple things for work plus bad reception where they are and some root tweaks is what I do to help. Otherwise I wouldn't care and don't wanna brick it and buy a new phone for them. Thanks again and happy 4th if July.

Did you roll back to zvd or zvh first?

I went from zvd to vzj using this and after it upgraded to zvj, every time i would turn on my wifi it would say error. i have run this twice and they both did this. My 3g and data work fine though. Any ideas?

EDIT: sorry it wasn't this. It was my zvj itself... weird

I used this tool last night on an optimus s that had zd, I chose option b and everything went fine. today I tried it on another optimus s that had vd and I accidentally chose opotion a, I got a lot of errors but at the bottom it said it went ok. The phone rebooted and just sticks at the lg screen, I pulled the battery and tried to go to recovery but its just a black screen. please help.

edit... got it
