and thanks for the easy fix
 
alright..now im goin crazy. im trying to help my bro in law root his phone at his house on his computer..i did his moms phone at my house..when i plug his phone into his computer 3 more driver try to install then it says cannot find the driver and device will not work ...all help would be appreciated
 
any help would be awesome...ive been promising to root my brother in law phone for like 2 months now and i don't know what is going on..i don't remember going to this when i rooted his moms phone
 
yes i have...ive don it bout 3 different times now.i downloaded it ..double clicked it and let it install ...am i missing something
 
Are there any other drivers that should be downloaded? Like i said..ive rooted his moms phone on my computer..and i think i do remember going thru this but cannot remember what i did..its been a while since ive done this..i have downloaded everything on his computer..even called my house to see if it matched what i had downloaded when i did it..i just don't see why this isn't working and why these new hardware pop ups keep showing up..like i said ..since they do pop up the kdz updater can't even read the phone.
 
Where are you getting the drivers from, LGs site? I've used these since the ZV9/ZV3 firmware (on ZVC now) without a problem.
Also try rebooting after the install. You shouldn't have to, but I remember one post from a few months back where the person claimed they had to reboot after installing the drivers to get the phone to recognize.

Also try different USB ports. Maybe one is bad.
 
I can transfer his SD card to computer... but the updater doesn't recognize his phone...I told him I will try again tomorrow when I get off work... I f u think of anything else let me know... I'm bout to go to bed and will check up here tomorrow... thanks in advance
 
Hey everyone. I'm finally considering rooting & I'm confused about one thing.

Which are the proper settings for the R&D Test tool (kdz updater for step 11)?

A. Emergency, 3gQCT, & Normal web upgrade test [as per the Instructions docx in the Offline Fix zip]

B. CDMA & DIAG [Default for me when I opened the program]


C. CDMA Smartphone (WM) & DIAG [as per step 7 of the original post for this thread]


There are 3 different instructions in 3 different places, so which one is it?

I used this guide and have to say that it is definitely one of best written guides I've seen!! Worked like a charm :D

Thanks Jaybps3

Alrighty. Thank you for the clarification. I just wanted to make sure I got it right, especially since there is a possibility of bricking the phone (by not following the proper steps).

Well, I managed to root the phone in one shot with no problems.
 
i have benn trying to root my brothers boost marquee and i have had no luck . I didnt have any trouble when i rooted my marquee but i cant remember if the LG Support Tool is required to get all the drivers installed that is needed..??

Well.... I personally did not use the LG Support Tool (Win 7 SP1 x64).... I hope that wasn't a no-no, but there were no blips when I went to root the phone.


If I recall correctly, I

--clicked the Boost link in Step 2

--downloaded the USB Driver for Windows & LG Mobile Support Tool

(I actually did open the LG Mobile Support Tool by accident while trying to figure out what it was.... Nothing happened, as I did not have the phone plugged into the computer at the time.)

--turned off Antivirus & Internet Security Suite, installed the USB Driver & rebooted (without phone plugged into the computer)

--plugged the phone turned on in the computer (w/ USB Debugging, Always ask off, & charge only)

There was the usual automatic detection & installation of the phone's drivers that went without a hitch.

--made sure I had the USB driver fix from the quoted post in the original post
(already had it)



After a while of having the phone on & looking through the Device Manager, I believe I turned off the phone with the power button while it was still plugged into the computer & more drivers installed (around step 10 when the phone is powered down)....

More drivers installed when I switched to Mass Storage.... Made sure all necessary Windows Updates were completed.... Rebooted....

Then, get to rooting!

Around step 11 with my Boost phone, more drivers installed, then I disabed the LG (modem) entry in network adapters in Device Manager.

I hope this is helpful to you in some way.
