Root I want to be able to do a Factory Reset

[Curster]

Damn returning my phone back to stock is the hardest thing I have been challenged with... I have tried the CWM Advanced Restore method which never worked... I couldn't find the files.

I attempted the Downgrade to B then Upgrade to D but I couldn't find all the files to download or install LGNPST correctly... Hell I am so freakin frustrated and all I want to do is be able to do a factory reset at the Metro Store so that I can prove that my phone internal speaker doesn't work. My phone is still under warranty.

So although I have read most of the threads about returning to stock I am begging someone to point me in the best direction to return to out of the box conditions.

The only way to get to true stock is to downgrade or upgrade.

which is always important to make a backup of your stock rom before installing any custom rom.

The man speak the truth ....todays word is BACKUP .this was told to you when you performed anything to your DEVICE . make a backup before you do anything and the second thing was that you can't blame no one for the actions you performed to your handheld device called LG ESTEEM .. MS 910....

Thanks for the offer but my buddy just bought a 19' Mariah boat and we are taking it out tonight. If I'm still in the weeds I would love to get a little help though.

And thanks for the other replies I'll be back at it with more determination and understanding.

Ok cool I have it back to ZVB I really don't need to upgrade it to do a factory reset. Will unrooting allow me to do a factory reset in the settings menu??

It should be unrooted after downgrading but yes you can

Thanks I unrooted it and can do a factory reset at metro to get my new phone. Phew... I thought I was going to pull my hair out but when I got the files everything worked out.

Thanks again to everyone who offered some experience... Much appreciated.
