[Super-App] LG Optimus S Control Center 1.1.001 NO LONGER NEED ANDROID SDK!!!

[drewwalton19216801]

any idea on why its giving me the extract cab error?

No idea, I've never had that error before when using KP500. Post about that in one of the other KP500-related threads though, you'll get more help there.

Namely this one.

This app is excellent.

Once you are on V9 you must root, flash the V9 recovery (THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL), and update to VC using the LG tool.

Oh, and zefie's latest nightly is effing amazing.

should be sticky

Not till 2.0
We've got some amazing things brewing for 2.0, should be EPIC. Yes, I said "we".

True, or also the search function. It's pretty cool. You type in what you want to know about and BAM have some results!

Make absolutely sure you flash the stock V9 recovery, else rooting VC will not work.

Thanks for the kind words, thekid. Hope your newly rooted Optimus S is doing well.

followed everystep to the T... still having the same issue..

went through this succesfully

then
http://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-...45403-how-unroot-your-phone-return-stock.html

every single step succesfully,

then updated from v8-v9 then from v9 to vc with lg update.

hmm. i dont see anywhere i could of messed up

after i apply sdcard:update.zip (that i copied from the optimus folder)

i get:

opening update package..
verifying update package...
installing update...
assert failed: file_getprop("/sy
ste,/build.prop"/"ro.build.fing
erpring") == "spring/LGE/thunder
c/thunderc:2.2/FRF91/eg.lge.201

E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip

[drewwalton19216801]

That's an expected error. It is used to trigger the mounting of the /system partition. At the step where the application tells you to run the update.zip it clearly states that it will cause an expected error.

 

[Makatomotors]

ok, so i wasnt sure if that was the error or not, cuz i got a similar one last time.. ok . so its not disconnecting and reconnecting that i can tell?

 

[drewwalton19216801]

Are you absolutely sure you flashed the V9 recovery kernel?

 

[thekid]

Thanks for the kind words, thekid. Hope your newly rooted Optimus S is doing well.

it was alittle slow this morning but i did a battery pull and now she is smoking fast, you are the man in my book

Please help. I love these tutorials, but they can be a bit frustrating. I installed the ota vc update but I used your guide to downgrade to v9. That worked fine. I then rooted the v9 version successfully. But the constant reminders that there is an update available so I updated to vc with the lg phone updater on my computer. This took the root away (which I figured would happen) and I used the method in this post and the adb method to try to root the vc version, both unsuccessful. Any tips?

When you reverted to V9 did you remember to also flash the V9 recovery kernel?

 

[Jordantw]

no i must have missed that part...would this include having to downgrade to v8 and all that described in the unrooting thread? if not mind pointing me in right direction? sorry, i know you've probably posted a think somewhere in here.

btw thank you for such prompt help!

 

[drewwalton19216801]

Steps 25-29 in the unrooting thread.
