I used lgnpst to return phone to factory state, I was initially rooted and unlocked through freegee. I've received 11c and jb update OTA so I'm assuming my bootloader was relocked but I can't boot into anything as power and vol up do nothing. Can anyone verify lgnpst relocks? Thx

Yes it does

You should be able to use freegee to redo the bootloader unlock. Or use TeenyBin from autoprime's thread. That's the method I used to knock out the required partitions upgrade from the OTA and leave me rooted and unlocked all in one step.

I need to get my phone back to stock rom state. The more I looked around for LGNPST, the more difficult for me to find suitable one for E970. Could you point me to the appropriate download and instructions? I REALLY need this as my radio is messed up and I cannot make any phone calls. Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Can anyone help me with restoring my Optimus G to completely stock? I want to be able to accept ota updates. I'm assuming I'll need to re flash the stock recovery for sure, but is there a way I can flash a large package like you can on Odin with Samsung phones? Thanks!

Read the instructions he is talking about and get on irc and get a hold of Lgnpst. It works in the same manner of odin just a little different. You can get stock firmware in the dev section. Follow all instructions so you don't end up with a brick.

What is irc?
Hello,
So whats going on is my QI wireless on my phone stopped charging. so i called verizon to get a replacement which they are overnighting tonight to me. so my question is, is there a way (step by step) to just put the Orignal Recovery Flash rom back on the phone and just lock the bootloader without resetting the phone? if so and do that. well the tamper disappear on the phone as well? ?? because they want the phone how it is. they dont want me to do a phone reset so they can see what cause the problem...
So 2nd question if i don't fix the rooting and ship the phone as is to verizon. Do you think i well get charged for rooting my phone???
Thanks!
Flash a stock rom and kernel, restore all your apps and stuff, delete any root apps, remove supreuser/SuperSU, flash the stock recovery, and relock if you feel like it. If you all that you should be good.
Or just ruu and relock your phone. As long as the problem still persists they won't care that you wiped it.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I hope the new one doesn't come updated because if so you won't be able to root. I would restore the old one and see if the wireless charging works again if so you might want to keep it if the new one is updated.

The download on that post is a zip file, which you would flash in recovery to have a stock Rom. Then you would restore your apps, remove any root apps, remove superuser, put a stock recovery on there and relock.

My friend recently got an og and isn't very tech savvy, so he asked me if i could root his for him but the original root method doesn't seem to work for me on JB. Do i need to lgnpst it or is there a way to do it without taking it back?
There is a guide thread with all the answers.

The guide doesn't mention anything about jellybean, and the root method posted doesn't work on JB nor has it been updated since then, that's why i asked on here.

The CurrentRoot method from carrett's guide will root 20j.
That's odd, mine was rooted before the ota so i haven't messed with it on my OG but on the one I'm trying to use it on it only reboots the phone once then goes back to the home screen on the phone. Guess I'll give it a few more tries.

Unlees you are only trying to get to stock rooted it may be easier to just use teenybin.

Yeah, i thought about doing that but he does just want stock rooted. He's just trying to be able to remove the bloat and add custom themes. If i can't get this method to work i might just go ahead and use teenybin anyways. Thanks though!

You would still need to unlock with FreeGee to avoid getting security error when removing bloat. There is a rooted zip for 20j that you could flash after teenybin if you wanted to go that route.

The current method does work on JB. I've done it.
Well, as I've stated, after trying that method 6 times last night but it only reboots once then returns to the home screen of the phone.

It was a PM75IMG that had the stock (no root) Rom, stock recovery, basically put everything back to stock minus the bootlader.

From what I can tell it's all stock, just have to use his s-on script after. So it must be everything.
