So I've followed this up to the point where I click the arrow to start... but there is no indication that it is doing anything?

*edit*

On the phone itself is just the message that I'm in download mode, and on the software it shows this:

Hrm, well dang... It got to 98%, hung for a bit, then failed? I'm at the "touch android to begin," should I go ahead and get logged in to my account?

Seems totally fine. Signed into my Google account, everythings seems to be good to go!

Thanks so much for this... after removing some bloatware, I've been unable to get the OTA update, and I've been struggling to get back to stock settings to take care of this.

So you got it complete stock too LS840ZVC and If you turn on WIFI for like maybe 15min top you should get a system update prompt. that update is LS840ZVD. just a heads up

Odinist, this will fix a bricked phone, it rewrite the bootloader and partitions. It seems like we have fixed the OTA issues from removing apps

So I'm noticing that my data is unusably slow after doing this... It worked well enough to get me logged in to Google, and my emails will come through... but trying to do anything on the market, or browse the web, just isn't working. Could something have gone screwy with the radio during install?

Re: How To Unbrick LGLS840 Back too LS840ZVC Firmware

you have two ways you can go about this reflash the phone again. or get you service code number and do ##72786# and will reset 3g data connection

Re: How To Unbrick LGLS840 Back too LS840ZVC Firmware

Disregard, I just realized why my data was so slow... looks like it was downloading the ZVD update in the background, which was eating up my bandwidth... As soon as the System Update screen popped up, my market downloads started zooming, and I'm good to go. =)

One again, thanks so much for posting this!

Sweet. So glad that it worked out. I hope we can get more good success like you did and maybe get a sticky on here.
