I cannot get the root process to work. My screen is blank, as I have the newer LCD. I have tried it over a dozen times, restarting my computer and the phone several times, and I just keep getting the $ instead of the # when I go back into shell after running the exploit. Any help please?
All I can say is rage depends on a race condition. It doesn't alway hit gold. You may want to sprinkle in a reboot of the phone, the pc, and an adb kill-server every once in a while. Eventually it'll work. I sometimes get it on first shot. Sometimes after 25.

Blank Screen, No LG No Nothing

So.... I was trying to root this phone that was on the LS670ZVD SW Version. I went to the step to revert back to V9 and it went through the entire process just as described. Upon rebooting the phone screen is backlight and the buttons are also but I dont get any LG Splash screen or anything.

Since I have tried to run the LG updater again thinking it might restore the necessary driver to get the screen going again, but without success. This is not my phone as I was doing for someone else so I am in a bit of predicament now with this so any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I tried rebooting again through adb and it is showing the little LG symbol for a second then nothing.

EDIT2: Sorry I didnt see the part about substituting those steps to force flash back to VC. Will try that and report back if that fails.

EDIT3: Sorry for the un-needed post did the force flash back to VC and now the screen is working again. (THANK GOD) So now I just need to try rooting again.

Once again sorry and thank you for your awesome info here in the post and keep up the good work!!

Attempted the force flash VD, the LG Updater said "Updating is not possible any longer due to a fatal error while the LG Mobile Phone Software Update."

... attempting again... skipped the checksum step, suppose it could have been a tad off or something....

EDIT: Windows 7, saw the necessary XP Compatibility mode stuff...

For reference, it was having issue just after the reboot, this is what the program itself was posting up:

Redoing now with XP mode / etc.

ok... Updated to VD completely... but not rooted anymore lol... oh well, at least I have 3g back :)

Update again... not just lost root, but lost recovery kernel too. Looked at guide for rooting VD, and it basically says to do essentially all i've done to this point since i bought the phone, yet somehow I have the default recovery instead of the custom one that I had (dris's) I think for now I'll quit doing the hacks for a while lol.

The USB driver is probably confused. Try rebooting the PC and phone and retry.

Opt. S updated on it's own! Specific Questions on Reverting (I looked around)

I have the LG Optimus S. I avoided the latest VD update until it apparently did it on its own while it was in my pocket!

My phone buzzed in my pocket > I grabbed it > read the message about "Updating XXX" > hit "Cancel" button.
So I immediately checked my Settings and the phone says it has VD installed despite me hitting Cancel. :'(

(1) So, is the method mentioned in sfhub's sig (and similar rooting/flash methods) the only way to revert to a pre-VD stage?
(2) Any sort of command I can do within the phone itself that'll reset it? Button combo?
(3) Does the "Factory Data Reset" option under the Privacy Settings work?
(4) Also, does this mean I will have to re-activate the phone? Any problems with this?

Sorry, I'm a total beginner with smartphones, Android, etc. and don't want to break my 2 month old phone. I'd rather not root my phone. I was happy with it stock....but just don't want VD. :-[
