[How-To] Manual Rooting of LS670ZVH/ZVJ (+ links to root ZVD/ZV9)

Re: [How-To] Manual Rooting of LS670ZVH/ZVJ (+ links to root ZVD/

Hello I have run through step three as stated, but when I try to reboot into recovery it just stays on the LG logo. If I take the battery out I can get it to boot into my rom, but there is no option at poweroff anymore to take it into recovery.


Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

Question. Can i do all of this via my phone without a computer?

I would root my wii if it ran on Android, but i have already hacked it.

 

[ClutchX_LA]

are the commands the same for adb over wifi?

Yes, ADB works exactly the same when connected over wifi. You just have to type "adb connect [local IP address of the phone]" before you attempt any other commands.

Thank you for the guide. Rooting coming from the ZVH update through the automated-root was not working. This is my first time rooting through the command prompt and it was easy to follow. Thanks again!

In looking over the instructions, it says "If the mirror you used has the file named LS670ZVH.zip or LS670ZVJ.zip please rename the one your your sdcard to update.zip." Rename the what? Thx.

The file downloaded
Let's say you downloading zvj update
And after download its named LS670ZVJ.zip
Rename ^^^this file mentioned to update.zip
But you can flash zvj roms on zvd or vice versa with nitestalkrs patch

If its already named update.zip no need to worry

Thanks so much for the info on the file name and the nitestalkrs patch. I'll check it out.

Re: [How-To] Rooting LS670ZVH (temporary instructions)

HELP! I was following along with these directions, but wasn't able to get the computer to recognize when my device was connected. So I used adb wireless. Got ZVJ installed correctly, then did the factory wipe, step 5. I didn't think about the problem with the usb connectivity, but now I am stuck!! I cannot get the computer to recognize the phone to save my life!
Things I have tried:
2 different computers (desktop and laptop) but both running Windows 7. 4 different USB cords (the original LG, an original Samsung, a kindle usb, and a generic) in both computers in all of the different usb ports. I have unistalled the LG drivers and reinstalled them on both computers. I have restarted the phone, the computer, etc. I have toggled the USB debugging check box on the phone.
Also tried:
taking the zvhroot file, put it on the sd card, and rename it "update." (I get "E: signature verification failed Installation aborted")
moving on to step 6 as written- I get "error: device not found" in the adb window.

Can you please help? If it matters, this phone is connected to wifi, but is not currently connected to a sprint account. (I wanted to fix the root and all before transferring my number/account back.)

Anyone still around this thread??? I FINALLY was able to re-root my phone, but it required I reverted to ZVD. (using Gingerbreak)
Anyway, I still would like to upgrade to ZVJ (or even ZVH) but I am a bit wary now. I can use adb wireless, but DO NOT have the ability to connect to a computer (pretty sure the usb port is dead.)
So I can't lose the root during the process or I would lose the ability to adb and/or custom recovery and install.
Can I do this without losing root? Not sure with reading the steps if installing the ZVJ update automatically removes root.
Thanks!
Karen

If you're wary of installing zvj, then stay on zvd and use the radio patches found here.

I don't consider zvj an "upgrade" on my phone.

Just flashed to ZVJ and rooted after dropping service on my phone. I'm getting Error Code 67 all the time. Since I don't care about cell service on this phone at this point, is there an easy way I can disable the Cell radio entirely and run the phone just off wifi? I wasn't getting it during the phase where I had the ZVD software with the ZVJ radio. And since I don't have service, no sense killing my battery life with the cell radio...

You need to be "rooted" on your current version first to follow these directions.

If you are currently on stock recovery/rom, then I suggest you just install the ZVH update.zip in the first post, then use one of the new automated ZVH rooting methods in this post:
