I rooted my lg on my computer, but I have not connected it since. Everytime I try, it says it does not recognize , that one of the USB devices has malfunctioned. I have installed the lg USB driver 3 different times and still can't get it, I have tried all 5 USB ports I have, same thing. Any ideas

Have you uninstalled the drivers?
If not, with the phone plugged in, go to device manager, find the device, uninstall it, unplug and then replug in your phone.
Yes I did, I'm very computer literate. Turns out a cable can't tell you its bad, the original cable seem to be the problem. Probably why sometimes I get slow charge when plugged into the wall. All may be null and void when I attempt n4 conversion lol , wish me luck!

Good luck. I recommend having LGNPST prepped to revert to stock, with the DLLs and the BIN/TOT version of the LG ROM. AFAIK, that's the only way to get back, because of how extensive the N4 conversion is. Reverting with a ZIP ROM in CWM is unlikely to work.
Yah , I think I'm going to give up on trying, between the cable thing, now I can only talk to my phone through adb, fast boot won't seem to work. Plus I can't find a lgnpst guide anywhere for our phone. No idea where to get the DLL I'm supposed to flash with, nor where to get the files to flash back. This is my first lg, I've been a HTC guy, so I know nothing about lgnpst. Thanks though

The Windows 8 guide works (even if you're in Windows 7):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013067
Step 5 refers to a folder in a zip file that you get a link to in IRC.
When you go into irc an you !info lgnpst click on other versions and get phantomphreak53's

That's the #lg-optimus-g channel on Freenode.
Yes, the DLL refers to "LS970," but it works fine with the E970.
To obtain the files listed in the first four steps, I just Googled them and found Dropbox links.
The TOT/BIN file in question would be this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984545
It will take a while to download; the server appears to average 100 KB/s.
As you can seee, it's kind of a pain to set up LGNPST's environment correctly. I recommend taking all of those files and backing them up to a secure location, so that you never need to hunt them down and re-download them again.
The guide also doesn't mention that your phone needs to be in Download Mode to interact with LGNPST. This is achieved by turning the phone off, plugging it into your computer with a USB cable, then holding down the power button and both volume buttons at the same time until the Download Mode indicator shows up on your screen. It may take several attempts; the process appears to have a low tolerance for poor button press timing.
LGNPST will interact with your phone even if Windows no longer recognizes it. I think that's why it remains popular as a last-resort recovery method.

Everything you need is on Team Nocturnals website where the conversion thread is minus lgnpst and the nexus 4 drivers.
After you flash the n4 conversion, boot in recovery and then install the nexus 4 universal naked drivers (Google it, should be the first xda link.) Then you can use adb to fast boot -w and flash a recovery. Just read a little more and you'll realize its not hard at all. Just make sure everything is prepared. Good luck if you try it. It was very interesting to me. I've gone back to stock and came back to the conversion after the sdcard fix

Right now the problem I am having is getting windows to recognize my phone in boot loader/ fast boot which will prevent me from being able to fastboot -w , I have a thread on here should be titled fast boot and recovery. Posted it last night. I'm trying to make sure everything is ready, but my phone and my PC are just trying to fight me every which way lol. I'm going to try another computer and see if things run smoother, I have rooted and unlocked a bunch of phones for friends and myself on my laptop. Wondering if I'm just having a lot of driver conflicts lol
Its not about what you know , but who you know.
You might need to flash your recovery, and possibly lock your bootloader again. What I have seen over my several rooted phones is that sometimes when unlocking them, the binary code doesn't match up and will not allow the battery, USB port, and even screen to work with the software. Won't matter if you unistall or reinstall the drivers. Hope this help!

Which software are you describing? I have not lgnpst 'd anything yet, it does notice my phone both with phone on and connection settings to lg software, and in download mode. The problem I am currently stuck on is getting my PC to notice my phone in boot loader so I can't use any fb commands. I can talk to my phone when its on through adb commands no problem.
I dont want to get in trouble, the original problem was I could not get windows to notice my phone at all. I fixed that by trying a different USB cord, apparently my original is failing. If you would like to help me more so I don't get yelled at, please post in my other thread titled fast boot and recovery in the qa thread. I really want to attempt this, its my bday. So it would be a awesome little bday present to my flashaholic self

Some facts:
My last rom on the phone was CM7
I can get into download mode but I cannot get into recovery
The drivers on my pc (windows 7 x64) are not installed correctly. I've tried the vibrant drivers and Nexus S drivers.
When I boot the phone on I just get the Vibrant/samsung Logo and it just stays there.
Since I can't get into my phone I cant turn on or disable USB Debugging.
I have SDK on my pc with the drivers in the google usb folder but they do not work.
How can I get my pc to recognize the device w/o being able to turn on USB debugging. I'm I stuck even though I can get into download mode?

I have the same problem. Now this is my first time with this phone as it is a friends. I installed TW bionic rom on her phone with no problem. Then tried the MIUI rom on the first page of the development section then the phone just bootlooped. So after pushing to many buttons in a very noobish move the phone just stays on the vibrant screen. So my question is where do I go from here? I will attempt to try you method to get the laptop to recognize the phone but maybe some links to help me out would be great.

id say miui's for more experienced users, it uses a different install meathod (same as cm7)
get odin and the pit and tar files (if you havent already)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047087
power off the phone
open odin
hold volume up and down
plug usb in
or
open odin
pull the phone battery
plug usb in
hold vol up and down
push battery back in (while holding vol buttons)
both of these ways should put you in download mode, if they dont straight away just keep trying and try different ports on your computer
Thanks for the link to that thread. I wasn't having much luck last night finding links that weren't broken. Downloading the rest of the files now so ill post back soon with results. Odin finally recognized the phone so I think this should go well. Not sure what I did wrong flashing MIUI, its not my first time running the rom just never used a vibrant before.

make sure factory reset isnt checked in odin, unless you want to wipe everything
always checked in mine for some reason, didnt notice last time and lost all my angry birds lol
Thank you very much for posting that link. It should honestly be stickied for all to find more easily since the one that is currently stickied has dead links. Everything worked, managed to reboot and reinstall team whiskey bionic rom then restore the last back up I made. If it wasn't for these forums I don't know where I would be.

This is not my first time rooting, i've rooted at least 3 phones thus far, and I am trying to root my Samsung Fascinate. I've tried z4root, Superoneclick and adb. None of them took. I believe it may be something with my drivers, but before I get into specifics, let me give you my information:
~~~~PHONE~~~~
Hardware version: I500.04
Model SCH-I500
Firmware: 2.2.2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build Number: SCH-I500.ED05
~~~~COMPUTER~~~~
Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3.
Ok so now that's out there, what am I doing wrong? when I tried z4root 1.3.0, it got the point where it said "acquiring root shell, then the phone vibrated 3 times and the app closed. Super one click, the prompt got stuck on "waiting for phone" ADB, the device won't even show up in the list of devices. I can't seem to find the right drivers anywhere.
It may be important to note that I am using my data cable from my optimus v, and when I plug it in, the micro-usb dongle doesn't go all the way into the port on the fascinate. However, the fascinate gives me the notification that usb mode can be activate and that debugging is on, etc.
I made sure that mock locations, and usb debugging were both on.
Any help?

Ive always used ADB and pushed over the files and such.
However are you going to flash another rom? If so just Odin recovery, flash the rom and be done with it.
I have to have root for that right? My drivers aren't working, is there a way to flash it with out a computer

agreed! If you want a different rom, alot of the steps in that link I posted a not needed. Just odin the proper recovery for the rom you intend on flashing. boot into recovery and wipe data,cache,dalvik, then install rom.zip from sd card. reboot and the phone should be rooted.

Downloaded everything in the link, installed drivers, I'm on my friends laptop now, still xp. I got to the step where I have to find CWM3 Voodoo in Odin, and the instructions say that one of the boxes should have turned yellow, but it didn't. I went on ahead and clicked the pda button, but it just said success 0/failure 0. What do I do? Do I have to have vista?
That means odin is not recognizing the phone. Im not sure if odin works with xp or vista... I only use 7 these days. Actually if my memory serves right, odin dont work with xp, don't quote me tho. You could try heimdall but I have no experience with it.
Still can't squire root.I've factory rest 3 times now and still nothing. Can no one help?

If u can't get odin or heimdall to work, you won't be able to root. Do you not have windows 7

as stated in the op, I explicitly said I am using windows xp, media center 2002, service pack 3 to be specific. So your telling me I'm S.O.L.?
first, get a real cable
then, go to official samsung website and install the correct fascinate drivers
download and open odin v3 1.30 (I have xp and it works)
plug in phone in download mode, wait for odin box to turn yellow
pick file in pda
and press start
then just go into cwm via 3 fingers and flash rom

I'm not saying that you shouldn't be doing this but I think you need to slow down and read some more before trying. While this phone is pretty dang hard to brick without physical damage, lacking basic knowledge can put you down got a while if something goes wrong.
A good place to start is the qa stickies. Again I'm not saying don't, just maybe give it another day or two. Really sucks rushing in soft bricking and having to learn after with no phone in the mean time.

Not trying too be an ass or anything but 1.) This is my 5th or 6th time rooting. I have more than basic knowledge. 2.) This is a spare phone I picked up dirt cheap for development. 3.) I checked every place possible trying to find out why my drivers weren't working including q&a.
That aside, I'm trying it on my friends laptop with vista. Wish me luck.

Ok so i was in my flash happy mood earlier today..
I saw that ICS slim was updated and was going to try that, well i had ICZen on my phone at the time and tried to flash Slim, well blah blah, it didnt work.. The op told me to flash from a rom that had cm9 (iczen has glitch) so i flashed Lithium MIUI--went back into recovery and started to wipe.. i wiped everything.. So i went to go flash ics slim, and as soon as i pressed 'Yes, install..' it was installing for a very short bit, then all a sudden a reboot and got stuck on the rainbow screen...
I cannot go back into recovery, but i can go into download mode.. BUT this is where the kicker is......
My computer doesnt recognize my device... ive installed driver after driver to get it to recognize. Well, no avail
Even tried installing the drivers on 6 other friends computers (at my college) and all of them still didnt recognize my device..... SMDH.. been trying to fix this all day and im pissed.
Any ideas what to do? Hate to go out and buy another phone......
And before yall say 'you cant flash miui and then go straight to ics, you have to odin' --- No, i did it all the time.. This time something went wrong and idk what
Wow, 158 views and no replies..
Guess i did permanently brick it.. ok
If you can get in to download mode, you're not bricked.
I've read/heard that since our ICS roms are built off of Nexus code, you need to install the nexus drivers. Have you tried doing that? Also, are you sure it's not a bad cable? Try another samsung cable (if you can get a hold of one) to be sure.

as far as views:replies, you have to realize that even though you are in panic mode (weve all been there, so we know how you feel), that doesnt necessarily mean people are automatically going to have an answer for you. in this type of situation, its virtually impossible for anyone to tell you an exact solution (if there is one) unless they are sitting right next to you.

i honestly wish i could tell you exactly, this was a whiiile back, prob over a year.
all i remember was a lot of installing/uninstalling/reinstalling drivers, rebooting comp/phone, unplugging/replugging....it seemed like there was no hope so all i could do all day was fiddle and just hope and pray that i would do something right and the phone would read
im not going to lie though, it does sound pretty bad that youve tried it on multiple computers. that means your possible problems are (from most to least severe):
1. Busted USB port
2. Wrong drivers installed
3. Malfunctioning chord
Although i WILL say: make sure all of your USB connections are free of lint, gunk, etc. I know this sounds like one of those stupid, default troubleshooting steps, and i always looked down my nose at it. however there was a point in time the the comp wouldnt pick up my phone. i tried eeeeverything to remedy it and nothing was working. sure enough, i looked at the standard usb connector on my charging chord and it was FILLED with pocket lint. once i picked it out, BAM good as new!!

Couple of things. Why don't you go over to the Dev section and download the AIO toolbox. Tiber I think has a link in one of the last posts that should still be working. It has all the pit/tar files, drivers (I know, I know), Odin and is very handy. Don't forget to make usre you have the .net files too.
Then try this
Make sure you have ODIN OPEN with admin privileges!
1.) Take off your back cover, remove your sim & mirco sd card.
2.) Remove your battery.
Make sure you have the USB plugged into your PC but NOT your phone!
3.) Hold the volume buttons.
4.) Put the battery in.
5.) Put the USB in.
You don't necessarily need the download mode image to be present. As long as you are getting the COM ID to light up yellow in ODIN, just flash back to stock like normal.

If all else fails, just keep trying. It boots up to Download mode so it is salvagable and not hard bricked. If you do end up finding a new phone on CL and want to donate you Vibrant, i am looking for one to work on some things with.

So the one Rapidshare from Tiber isn't working? What about the one from OldeCrow 2 posts up. If neither of them are working, I can get it to you later on tonight when I get home from work.
Regardless, if you have the drivers and have Odin installed, try the tricks in my earlier post and see it works that way. Panic mode is probably not deep set in, don't worry we'll get it on.
When you say yours (and 6 others) don't recognize the phone, are you talking about Mass Storage mode or do all 6 of your friends have Odin installed on their computers? Might seem like a BS question and I am sorry about that but it is a one or the other type situation. It will be in download mode OR mass storage.
Can you boot into recovery by chance?
Depending on what bootloader you have it will be (Froyo) Vol+/- and power or (GB) Vol+ and Power. Also not to sound noob-ish but just bc you have a GB ROM doesnt mean you have GB bl's. Dealt with that with someone else this week and fought me tooth and nail over it.
if you have clockwork mod installed you can put a rom on your SD card through your computer, wipe your phone and then flash the from with a full wipe.

That is what I am getting at.
If he can get into CWR then he can mount the phone to the computer in Mounts and Storage, put a simple 2.2 ROM on there and get it to boot up so that it works. then figure out the driver thing later on once we can get it to fully boot up.

Depending on what bootloader you have it will be (Froyo) Vol+/- and power or (GB) Vol+ and Power. Also not to sound noob-ish but just bc you have a GB ROM doesnt mean you have GB bl's. Dealt with that with someone else this week and fought me tooth and nail over it.

cant reboot into the bootloader nor recovery.. the only thing i can do is download mode..
I have the GB bootloader.. im sure of it lol

So the one Rapidshare from Tiber isn't working? What about the one from OldeCrow 2 posts up. If neither of them are working, I can get it to you later on tonight when I get home from work.
Regardless, if you have the drivers and have Odin installed, try the tricks in my earlier post and see it works that way. Panic mode is probably not deep set in, don't worry we'll get it on.

oh and i did do the little tricks you said, i found that op..
that person had the same problem as me and everyone tried to help, they gave him/her links and everything.. i followed with the links too, and just like that person, none of them worked for me either
saw the download link that oldecrow posted.. its working.. downloading now
Ok. Keep trying once it is downloaded and let us know how it is going. I am getting ready to leave work soon, so I won't be on until later tonight but there are plenty of others that can help.
There's also the One-Click Vibrant DeBrick from Adam Outler. I've used it on my netbook on phones with your identical problem and its never failed yet.
Also, Heimdall on Ubuntu will flash it no problem, it does NOT need drivers like Windows does...

i finally figured out how to get CWM installed and working, after a couple of months of fighting with it, off and on. so, i guessed that meant i have my bootloader unlocked - "wrong!".
i deleted some thing that wasn't supposed to be deleted, then the damned cell network and lan network stopped working (keeps saying com.android.phone has stopped). so i was going to put cyanogenmod on it, because i thought that i could, and just be done with the whole "missing apps" crap. it turns out "just because you CAN put CM on it doesn't mean you CAN put CM on it". i bricked it. i have NO options to "load" or "flash" or "boot" any thing when the phone is booting up. i would love some clarification as to what i CAN do from here.
i would rather install CM and be done with all of this, but i'll take any advice that gets rid of the problem. the biggest problem is understanding how to put CM on your phone, or to do any thing at all like that, when you cant get into any kind of recovery / boot menu, even though you ARE rooted... i don't care if i have to install cyanogenmod or some one else's CWM backup, i just don't know HOW to do it - especially with no windows (only linux). it's a rooted p769v20d (originally p769v10g).

fwiw, regarding the mysterious deleted app:
i lose my internet signal as soon as it says "com.android.phone has stopped", then i get it back again right before it says that message again - it ALSO shows a cell-phone signal right before that message. this repeats over and over and over every few seconds - aggravating as hell...

Nice thread title. That is how I am feeling right now with this phone. I feel like calling tech care and yell at them for a bit to vent. Anyway, why not install fastboot for Linux and flash the ics u and x? I uploaded my u and x folder in the Unlock Bootloader for Noobs thread. Then, flash the 20h.....oh, dang.... sorry. Forgot.... no Windows. Maybe do the built-in restore by holding the volume down, home and power keys?

thanks, but i think i finally got it working. i never knew, after all this time, that after you do the l9recoveryinstaller, at the reboot, there are no cues to tell when when to hit some buttons, and it's not clear what buttons to hit. here's what i did, and, so far, its progress:
1: be rooted
2: install busy box, completely
3: install l9recoveryinstaller
4: reboot
5: after you see the LG logo, hold vol-down until you see the flashing lights (i thought you see the flashing lights and THEN you hit vol-down, but i was wrong).
still fighting to get a rooted rom installed ...
if i choose "install zip from external sdcard" is says:
"finding update ... opening update ... installing update ...installation aborted".
if i choose "restore" instead of "install" it will not let me select any thing, it just keeps saying file not found, when i try to select any further options, whether "restore" or "restore from external sdcard" or "advanced restore from external sdcard". and i already checked to make sure the sdcard was mounted...

I think your phone bootloader is locked, you cannot flash any custom rom zip file. It will soft brick your phone.
Please restore P769 CWM back from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136204. Download backup file and unbzip it. Put extract files in your sdcard /clockworkmod/backup/2013-08-30.12.00.00 folder. Extract file should contain several .img, .tar, .a, .log and .md5

Well correct me if I am wrong, but I guess you "only" deleted some system files, right? Do you remember which ones were the ones? Or at least the folder they were in? Then you only need to extract that stuff from a kdz/ the bin file and push them on your phone using adb or maybe even the dd command.
Maybe if someone is kind enough, he ll probably provide you with the files you need. And cmiiw, but I guess you deleted stuff from /system/app...

It's depend on what method you use. You can flash kdz using offline method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344
or use LG mobile support tools from LG website. If you choose this you don't need to download any kdz. It'll download kdz automatically from LG server then flash it on your phone. It take about an hour or two.

thats awesome - i wonder if i can get by with using that on wine on linux, instead of borrowing a windows computer... i'm gonna try it...
well, the verdict is in, on this one: i'm screwed. i've tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried and tried, and i can NOT flash this damned phone. it's BRICKED.
i borrowed / hijacked my brother's computer (windows7), all day. i tried a few different things - i even tried the same way i flashed it to update it ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356536 ), which was worthless to unbrick it.
the problem in every case was that every time the damned flasher got so far along it would "lose the connection to the phone". drivers installed, etc, etc, no difference. i suspect its because i couldnt connect it in all the various modes (mtp ptp etc), since the ONLY way it would connect is in "software upgrade mode".
i had to buy another phone, won't have it till tuesday. lesson learned: NEVER buy a phone that didn't come from samsung... you just can't do what you want with them, without a lot of time, patience, experience, and a windows computer.
thanks for all the help.

Did you try to recover your phone with LG mobile support tool. It can reinstall rom in almost any soft-brick case. Please try it if you haven't try it yet. Many people restore their phone by that software. The steps are
- Download LG mobile support tool from LG web site
- Boot you phone to S/W update mode
- Run Tool and select recover phone
- Wait about 1-2 hours to download and flash
If it's not hardware problem, this should solve your problem

i never found that on their website, and i looked quite a few times. however, i noticed when i used the b2clientsetup.exe that if i run it without running the shttp server first, that it downloads a support tool from the net, which does not work - keeps saying phone lost connection. not sure if its the same tool.

In my country (RO) there are some GSM Repair Centers. You should not give up and you should go to them. Par example, I flashed an HTC Mozart when the battery was dead and I bricked it (idiot, I know). I went to a shop like the ones mentioned above and I think he said that he has to flash the phone using a JTAG or something like that (I know that he has to open the phone to reach it's motherboard, solder some **** out there and... flash I guess). The whole thing was about ~20E. Anyway, keep digging, maybe you'll eventually find something that works for you. If not, go to someone who can "force flash" it and maybe you can save the device.
Hello,
I've read numerous times about people being able to restore their dead bricked phones. No button combination will get my LG Optimus L9 P769 (T-mobile) to turn on. I think bricked it while trying to complete a carrier unlock. I understand that I can try to restore my phone through either fastboot or kdz. For fastboot, I was able to install the omap driver, but you know how I'm supposed to install a second driver? Well, I can't seem to do that. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I would love an explanation of how to install the driver a second time. I know I'm doing something wrong, because when I use the fastboot script to flash the xloader and uboat, I just get "waiting for device." Also, if I want to flash a kdz, do I need fastboot drivers? I feel like my success depends on installing the fastboot drivers properly, but my computer and two others would not let me do that.
I'm really new to this stuff, so any help is appreciated! Also, please excuse me if I'm using the terminology incorrectly. Like I said, I'm new to all this.
Thank you in advance!
To install a kdz, you need to be in upgrade mode. Hold the volume up button then connect it to the computer.

Hello, I can't get into fastboot. It may be that the phone battery does not have a charge and so the fastboot script does not recognize it when I insert it into the phone after 4 seconds. Could that be a possibility? Because I tried everything, tried many different timings many times, to no avail!

I was just in the same boat as you and pretty much gave up hope but finally got fastboot working and flashed ics x and u and bam it worked like a charm on offline flash method. You just have to pit usb cable in phone w/o battery in and go to device manager. When you see it popup under other devices right click and press install driver. Make sure you have electronic signatures disabled or it will give a error and not install. This is what prevented me from getting it to work the first 100 times! Now run CMD. TYPE CD C:/FASTBOOT < OR C:/ W/E FOLDER NAME IT IS. THEN RUN START.BAT. < OR W/E THE .BAT FILE INSIDE YOUR FILE IS NAMED. Now press enter. It should prompt to plug in phone. I put my battery in as soon as plugged in and it worked. Now Choose option 5. Let it do its thing. Now go reinstall driver as done before to be safe. Then remove your battery. Hold volume + button and plug usb in. S/W upgrade mode should come up. Slide your battery in and proceed to the offline flash method to flash you kdz file. Should be alive again! Mine was tricky going into sw upgrade mode. Sometimes it came right up then sometimes it took 4 or 5 tries so dont give up! Goodluck and you can do it! I almost gave up I felt so hopeless about getting it to work then it finally worked like a charm!

The problem is, I can't install the driver in the second location because it doesn't come up in device manager.. I was thinking maybe there's a problem with the battery, like it doesn't have a charge or something. Because when I run fastboot it doesn't detect the battery no matter what timing I used. I tried everything. If I use the old fastboot script and I get to "fastboot? y or N" and I enter y, it keeps asking the same question.
