The flash_image.zip file needs to be unzipped, and it contents (1 file) gets copied to your SD card, not the zip file itself. The ADB terminal is part of the Android-SDK that you should install on your PC. Just so we are all on the same page, do you already have root access on your phone?

The ADB instructions are towards the bottom in the very first post of this thread. http://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-s-rooting-roms-hacks/59359-custom-recovery-xionia-clockwork-cwma-v1-2518-6-a.html#post596820

Has anyone knowingly used this custom recovery on a new phone with the new LCD hardware? I personally have tried ThundeRC and get a blank screen, so I was working up the courage to try another custom recovery this weekend.

Ok, thanks for that! I guess I won't have a problem then. I assumed it was doing a concatenate. I figured cp would have been used if it was only for a copy. :-!

I understand this. However, I don't believe it copies the file, it actually concatenates the file to the end of an existing file. My question was, if I have already done this with the flash_image supplied with ThunderRC, can I do this again with the Xionia Clockwork flash_image, or do I first...

I currently have the ThundeRC custom recovery installed, but am one of the few users that have the new LCD hardware, so the screen is blank in recovery mode. Do I need to install the stock VC recovery first before switching to Xionia Clockwork Recovery? I wasn't sure, since part of the...

cfallsguy, I followed this post. http://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-s-rooting-roms-hacks/45401-rom-thunderom-v1-7-2-20-2011-a-176.html#post639062 I was running ThunderRom 1.6.2 with ThundeRC.1.2 custom recovery. As the post says, you only have to clear cache and davlik cache. All my...

I think you have a good theory here with the LCD driver update, but how do we go about proving it? I would be willing to help debug this since I am one of the few that appear to have a suspect phone. My plan is to downgrade to V9 again, then get a logcat. I'll try it out this weekend.

I am having the same problem. I easily rooted my first 2 Optimus phones that came with V9, but this third one is only a week old, and came with VC installed. Here is what I did: 1) Followed the directions on this thread to downgrade to V9 with the LG Updater. After it rebooted, I got the LG...

Yes. I launched the LG Updater, then connected the phone via USB, then clicked the red update button on the updater. At least I can use the phone now until I figure out what to do next.

I am experiencing the exact same problem. This is on a brand new phone that came with VC, and I am assuming the VC recovery partition as well. The phone appears to be operating, but nothing appears on the screen. When a button is pressed, the backlight comes on. I can even hear the USB...
