[GUIDE] Optimus V ZVJ

Yeah. Well like on zv9, you can't get gb zvj roms to work. (or if you can, you have to do a lot more than just flash the fix.)
 
I don't have 3G here (and it would have been far more than a 2 hour drive, each direction, to get into one), so I just bought one on eBay for about $400 (including overnight shipping). T-Mobile told me I could stop by and "look" at their display models and ask as many questions as I wanted. No thanks.

Has anyone else picked up a G1? If so, where and how much? Are you using it yet? I can't wait for mine to arrive :)

Yep :D

Its ok, once when I replied and quoted someone in the quattrimus thread on AC, it posted it in a 3 year old thread in android forums, in a completely different phone sub forum.
I love tapatalks bugs xD

Apparently that one is from 2008 I wasn't a forum member then lol

try using a ROM with a LOT more internal space... im guessing that would help solve your issue.. considering "no space left on device error" and try using a ROM that does not use an sdext script, cause your cache folder gets moved to the sdext, and then the program "can't find" your cache directory.

if it works, then YAY!! if not.. then well.. back to square one :p
 
Wraith, how big was the last update.zip that we had to run? how big was it for you anyway? Mine was only 20 MB, which seems a little off. But I don't know what else the problem could be, other than perhaps residual optimus V firmware, which I have NO idea how to fix.
 
i'm not trying to flash a rom. I'm trying to root zvj. and it keeps on giving me those freaking errors.

I know, but it's worth a shot, there isn't a cache partition(or any "partition" on internal) until there is a ROM installed AFAIK.
So try using a small ROM, and then go through the steps.
 
what do you mean? I don't know how I would use a rom. I have to install zvj update.zip prior to installing root, which is unrooted. so I can't use another rom.

Use a stock-ish ZVD rom prior to flashing to ZVJ, and once your on ZVJ, it SHOULD be on stock gingerbread, then try rooting?

Just throwing out suggestions that I've come up with.

Yeah it's about 20 mb and it should have done away with any traces of the V firmware when you used lgnpst from e-mode

Like a minimal stock rom? perhaps my backup of harmonia? I have been doing it from the stock zvd rom.

Worth a shot... The only thing optiauto needs is a rooted rom so it can install the zvj recovery

jeez did you get your phone rooted or what yet andrew???? stop spamming my thread!!! jk haha

The only other thing i can think of would be to use an Optimus S rom, instead of an Optimus V Rom, and then follow the guides in the Optimus S forums on how to achieve root...
