**LG Optimus V 2.2.2 Root, Recovery, Rom, + Bonus Tutorial**

[DizzmalDan420]

Can't think of anything regarding your new issues. Here's the thread where ROM-specific tech support could likely be found for the Android version you currently have installed: http://forums.androidcentral.com/op...inferior-human-organs-unofficial-cm7-1-a.html

Are all of your other files on the SD card showing up and functioning normally, i.e. music, pictures, etc?

I did have an odd issue once with USB mounting. Have you tried plugging into a different USB port? On a laptop I used to have, out of the blue, one of the USB ports just wouldn't recognize the phone when I plugged it in. It's a long-shot but worth a try. Might be worth it to re-install the LG USB drivers also. Will see if I can dig them up on here..

Here are the USB drivers: http://www.mediafire.com/?k643dag6x7s7dl2

I have did something wrong I cant get to system recovery blue screen I can still get on stock rom but when I tried to flash it went to black and so I waited and waited I am scared now to try and flash again I used gingerbreak to root then to make a backup I used rom manger and then tired to flash rom ... what should I do ? Optimus v 2.2.2 new v5

Ugh. Get ready for an avalanche of people saying "DON'T USE ROM MANAGER"

Sounds like you have a newer version of the Optimus V that has the Hitachi screen. Since as far as I know, the recovery that ROM MANAGER supplies isn't actually for the OV, it's probably a simple matter of just flashing a new recovery that supports the Hitachi screen.

 

[DizzmalDan420]

First: UNINSTALL ROM MANAGER

Here's a link to a program called flash image gui. FlashImageGUI.apk Download and install it on your phone.

Here's a link to a recovery that will support the Hitachi screen: VM670NH_recovery.img

Here's how to install the new recovery:
4. Download and copy the recovery image (works with new & old OV screens) onto your the root directory of your sdcard.
5. Install the Flash Image GUI app (save the .apk to a /sdcard directory, then open it with file manager) Run the app & select 'Recovery Image' option with and direct it to the image file saved on your SD card

Thanks I was thinking that just wanted to make sure and i didn't want to make my phone complete screwed . I do have a question when I use the terminal now and do the commands is that going to delete my stock rom or will that get my recovery back ?

 

[DizzmalDan420]

As long as you can boot into your stock ROM, no harm can be done when flashing a recovery.

What exactly would you be using the terminal for? Flashing the new recovery? If so, no, it won't effect your ROM. Don't really need the terminal though. Try flashimagegui first.

 

[m8gic]

That worked thanks I didn't see your other post until I posted. I was asking about flashing with terminal but this is way easier and free . . . Thanks again for the quick help

 

[DizzmalDan420]

Glad it worked out for you.

Help needed please.

Did everything exactly as the guide, but now a few things don't work:

1- Home button
2 - Google widget (says unexpectedly stopped)
3 - market (even after typing my info)

So far this is what I've noticed.

Thanks

What Rom did you flash? You might have flashed a Rom not made for your phone. As for the market and search issues, I expect you forgot to flash gapps
