Problems Rooting ZVJ

[andrewnelson23]

Hi all,

I have an Optimus V on Optimus S firmware. I know what you're thinking: what the heck?? Well, I actually get better service on zvd and I'm convinced I get better on zvj while I've briefly used it on stock. But also, I can run basically any Optimus rom on zvj.

But before I can do that, I have to first root zvj! So I have zvd rooted. I've tried this using both gingerbreak and the optiauto tool. Both of these worked and I definitely had root!

I started on rooted stock zvd.

Next, I used the Optiauto tool to install the zvj update.zip. After this I re-enabled debugging and booted to recovery again using optiauto. Then I installed the update.zip. This gave me the expected error exactly. After this, I ran the exploit on optiauto(the last step to root zvj).

This is what I got on the command prompt.

Installing persistent root... write: No space left on device
write: No space left on device
write: No space left on device
write: No space left on device
Done
Waiting for filesystem to sync... Done

Installing Recovery - Xionia CWMA... write: No space left on device
Done
Waiting for filesystem to sync... Done

Installing Misc - Clean... write: No space left on device
Done
Waiting for filesystem to sync... Done

---- END LOG ----

On my phone in recovery, I got

E:Can't find command file CACHE: recovery/command
Installation aborted. no valid image in CACHE

This did not install root for me. I've tried it multiple times.
Can anyone help me?

Before anyone says it can't work on the V I thought I'd post here because I successfully run rooted zvj on mine. Used optiauto as well but for me it went through without a hitch. If anyone has any ideas it'd be appreciated. Thanks

Did you go straight off of stock rom? or another rom?

Try optiauto from a different computer maybe? Just drawing at straws...

Oh haha. I just didn't want to have to download a buncha stuff on their computer. but i suppose optiauto is only one program.

[andrewnelson23]

oh yeah.

 

[andrewnelson23]

Anyone else have ideas?? I feel like switching computers won't make a difference. I think the problem is all on the phone. but I'll try it.

 

[andrewnelson23]

I tried it again. Didn't work. ughhh. I'll try it from another computer tomorrow.

 

[andrewnelson23]

Reverting back to rooted zvd until someone has another way to root or something. I'll just use the patches to run zvj roms for now.

 

[thewraith420]

You could try gordita root.... Probably won't work but if you want to try something else maybe..

I did try that. Didn't work I don't understand how it worked for you, but not for me.

Make sure you are using this thread as reference and no other. Make sure you follow every step to its exact letter. Also note there are stages where it is not automated and you MUST perform the steps yourself. Honestly, I would say if you have all drivers installed and you use this you are golden!

Yep that's the guide I followed to root zvj

that's the guide I followed. Wraith, could you teamview me sometime and try it?

Well I've never done the teamviewer thing.... I'd give it a shot though

Just a bump and an update for this thread we did teamviewer and only got to the same error as the OP. It's the strangest thing... Nothing was done differently then on mine but for me it went through without a hitch. Sammyz also rooted his OV zvj this way with no trouble
