I don't know whether you can sideload books for the Amazon Kindle reader. However, I use the Aldiko reader to download epub books from my Calibre server.

That's what I'm thinking also. Restoring the nandroid backup should re-establish root. In any case, I'm going to hold off on VD until a wireless tether solution with ThundeRom is available. My understanding is the wireless tether solution being recommended requires a custom kernal not the...

Did you follow the steps to root your phone after performing the update to VD or did you restore your backup following the steps described here...

ccrc8, Hey that's great news! Can you list the steps you took to update to VD with ThunderRom 1.7? Also can you confirm that the Hotspot capability is no longer working with VD as other people have stated? I'm on ThunderRom 1.7 with VC looking to update to VD only if I can still have some...

Did you get hit with the $10 smartphone charge for the replacement?

My son's phone encountered the LG Logo hang after the upgrade to VC. His phone has the LG Stock recovery. The problem only occurred after the upgrade to VC. The VC upgrade was performed using the LG Updater so that I could get root access.

tmeader - I'm sure your right. You've done it more times than I have.

Make sure your phone is powered off when you try this. 1) remove the battery and wait a few minutes to ensure the phone is off 2) plug in the charger with the battery removed until the insert battery message appears 3) insert the battery and wait until the charging animation appears before...

Did you get the battery charging screen after you popped in the battery? Don't power up the phone until you see the charging screen.

tmeader and ccrs8, I glad that this battery pull trick worked for you. I found this by accident when my son's phone was stuck on the LG logo. I had the phone plugged in via usb to my computer with the battery out while I was searching these forums for help and then the insert battery message...

Did you try leaving the phone plugged in with the battery removed to try to get the insert battery message?

I don't think the problem is specific to the VC + custom recovery combo. I had the LG Logo hanging issue on my son's phone after applying the VC update using the LG Updater Tool. His phone is rooted but has no custom recovery. When he had the LG Logo hanging issue, I pulled the battery a...

No. My son's name is steven.

I think part of the problem is due to the number of software variations people have on their phones, the two methods used to apply the VC update and where people want to end up with regard to the VC update. In my case, I have 3 Optimus phones in my family. My phone is using ThundeRom 1.6.2...

Like zman519 I have a stock Optimus S with V9 that was rooted via z4root. No other customizations were applied to the phone. I want to upgrade this phone to VC and then obtain root access. I understand that I have to use the LGMobile update tool to apply the VC update, but do I have to go...
