Thanks man!
us Esteemers really appreciate you :D
Gives me the error
rm failed for /data/local/tmp/cwmrecovery.img, Read-only file system
rm failed for /data/local.prop, Read-only file system
rm failed for /data/gpscfg/*, Read-only file system
Unable to chmod /data/: Read-only file system
then says Finished Recovery! Nothing is changed though, why is it read-only?
I was in internet connection with usb debugging enabled
Dunno I just ran it 3x with no issues. :confused:

Hmmm. crap. I'm gonna retry again
Yep, I got the error again.
I've downloaded it 3 times, so a bad download is not likely
Do I need anything installed?
I'm on my laptop right now (relatively fresh install) so I don't have adb and android sdk etc installed.

the LG USB drivers. adb is included in the AIO.
 
Would the terminal emulator way work to flash on this? I've never used it on this phone only the ascend. If not I will wait until I get home. :thumbup:

yea well i took a pic of the errors i got while flashing it and pg didnt know why it was messing up on me and it really messed up my phone the display would turn off and when i try to turn on phone to go to home screen the screen would stay black and only bottom lights would turn on. he said he wasnt sure why it was doing that. just like transfusion here are my results

now in terms of troubleshooting there things i must know could anti-virus be causing this? perhaps it deleted a file i needed? does it matter if im on zvb,zvc,zvd? Running as admin prevent it from working i tried it so i run as normally. perhaps i need to update drivers????

Ahhhhh. Did you use PG's file or did you get it elsewhere?

Not sure if pg's I'd the same but i had to choose option 2 on install.

Lol buddy i only hang with our crew and get stuff from our crew im usually on their irc channel so yea from pg but there was 1 thing he told me that could be possible he said he might of given me the wrong image file so could u send me ur version so i could try to see if your works and if so then it was just a simple mistake from his side and no biggie.
 
happens to me when i overscroll up or down.. usually i over scroll up with no issue but then if i overscroll down i get that issue..

what i mean by 'over scroll' is pressing up untill you reach bottom of list vice versa :D

so just dont do that and your good ;)

What i was saying is that i didn't get it from pg and i didnt know if you got it from the person i got it from on here. It's prolly the same install but i don't know. Idk where mine originated from.

Lol hey bud nize to see u active again yea anyways after flashing that cwm i let my phone boot up and scan sd card or whatever right? it shows my display doing it thing so i leave it alone till it finishes but after what 15 sec display goes idle and goes on standby thats where it gets funky cuz i press pwr button to turn on my display and it will not turn back on and as far as the touch cwm it never successfully installs i gotta hold pwr button down till my phone turns off completly then go into recovery and mind u i have same old cmw so thats a sure sign it didnt install then from there i do a recovery and im back to normal.

Something happened to me except when it was done it wouldn't get pass the LG logo screen. Luckily, i was able to get into recovery. If this happens to you guys don't panic. Just go into recovery and woke dalvik cache.
 
Edit after a while of trying it on a friend's esteem seems the result are not beacause of the image file theres something else that isnt working so for now if ya guys wanna try go ahead but do a recovery first just to have as a plan b to go back

Flash_image doesn't work. We don't have the flash image file and even with it I couldn't get it to work
