I also was able to get the latest VM update installed, although no matter how much I try, I can't change the SW version from the sprint to vm. Flashing the latest radio update doesn't help either. The activation app tries to run, but just flashes a quick white screen and nothing. I'm guessing it's because it detects its not the correct SW version.
No Data After Brick

Almost everything you see in the about window is put there by the build.prop.
Sounds like your rom is a mix or both OV and OS.
Use the flasher zip I posted for updating your rom, and then reflash the rom you want. That should fix it.
I formatted the whole phone again using the recovery. I formatted Boot, Cache, Data, Sd-Ext, System, Dalvik, Battery Stats and then did a Factory Rest Wipe and then flashed Harmonia 1.7 which has the Activation app. Right after that, I flashed the VM9 Radio image and then rebooted. It still displayed LS670ZV9 as the SW version. I then tried reformatting everything again and then installing just the rom and leaving out the radio image, which didn't help.
Mobile Network State in About>Status says connecting and the Mobile Network Type says CDMA -EvDo rev. A. I also don't have a Wi-Fi MAC Address nor bluetooth. My MEID seems to be correct.
I am willing to use my phone as a test phone for anything you would want to experiment since I should be getting a Epic touch pretty soon.
I was one of the idiots folks who bricked their V because I did not read the full message thread before I flashed the radio update. I was able to get it back but had no data service. Nothing I tried worked until I found an old .QCN file and restored it through QPST. When I restored it I noticed that my QPST settings were drastically different than they were when I had no data service.
Since they restored my data link with Virgin Mobile, would the settings from my working phone be useful for others to flash who are giving up because they cannot get their data back?
I know enough to be dangerous and that's about it.
LeslieAnn, JerryScript? Please let me know if I am on the wrong track or if I can be of help at all. I am just so relieved to have my data service back again.

Here's what I did to get the VM SW.
1. I flashed LS670ZV9_20.S9_20.P60671.cab using KDZ
2. After it installed, I went to IHO recovery and I applied the VM update.
3. When the phone restarted, still had the sprint SW, I went settings>privacy and did a Factory reset.
4. When the phone restarted, I shut it down and went to stock recovery and wiped data/factory, wiped cache, applied sdcard:update.zip, and then rebooted. At this time I had SW VM670ZV9.
5. Then I Activated and 3G was now working.
-If anyone knows how to switch home and option buttons when going to recovery, please help me switch them.
Not sure what you mean. The home key doesn't do anything on IHO recovery except act as a sort of screen-off button. You use the camera button to select an item.

I think asadullah needs to be consulted on this one, he knows more about qpst and the OV than just about anyone. Whyzor and bigsupersquid I believe have a bit of experience with it as well.
Holey Moley man, it worked although I don't have 3G, I was able to change the SW version and I was able to activate under 1X, then data would just go away. I'll just do a little call to VM to reset data and it might work. BIG thanks to everyone.
QPST isn't a big deal, but it does have a lot of info.
The biggest problem is that the 3G password is shipped on the phone and is device specific, it doesn't get refreshed or changed when you activate it. My password is not the same as yours, so even if I give you all the settings except that, at best you will get 1x. Another annoying issue is that you can't read the 3g password with QPST, you need the LG store version called LGNPST Lab.
If 1x is coming on and leaving, that usually indicates you need to change the PRL file.

I'm talking about getting into the recovery. Instead of using Home+Vol Down+Power, I have to use Option+Vol Down+Power. Using Home+Vol Down+Power doesn't do anything.
