Root Well, lets get the ball rolling

Just tried both of your suggestions, and it's still a no-go :/

What's weird about it is that LGNPST reboots the phone into download mode, buts its almost like its a different one. When I hold down the vol buttons to get to download mode, then LGNPST shows it as being in emergency bla bla bla. But when it gets hung up on 11% and quits, the phone is in download mode on the phone screen, but LGNPST shows it as being in diag mode sort of thing. It's frustrating

Ya know, I don't think I've ever made it into any mode that mentions "emergency."

If the phone is not connected by USB, and I hold down both volume buttons (or just volume down button) and the power button, then my phone boots into "Android system recovery <e3>," with options to reboot system now, apply update from sdcard, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition.

If the phone is connected by USB, and I hold down both volume buttons and the power button, then my phone boots into "Download mode" where there is an LG logo and grey box which says "Download is in progress. Do not disconnect cable." The only way I know to get out of Download mode from here is to disconnect the cable and remove the battery.

So, I'm curious. How are you getting to a screen which says something about "emergency?"

I am fairly sure that for the standard flashing procedure, you should boot the phone normally, and LGNPST should put you into the correct Download mode by itself.

EDIT: One other thing... You may want to try a different port number for "LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port"

When I got it to work, I think I did something like...
LGE AndroidNet USB GPS NMEA Port (COM31)
LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM30) [in both Download mode and ##DIAG# mode)

If I hold down the vol buttons and plug in the cable, then a screen pops up. But when it stalls at 11% and quits after 10 minutes, then it goes back to the screen that looks like I am in DIAG mode.

I would post the screenshot, but for some reason there is no option to add an attachment with my reply anymore. Maybe It's because of the website being down earlier.

And I switched my Port number, didn't affect it.

Interesting. I see I don't need to press the power button to get into Download mode. I can just press down both volume keys and plug in the USB cord. Anyway...

Well, I'm fairly sure that you should have ##DIAG# mode enabled when you flash, but you shouldn't be putting the phone manually into download mode immediately before you flash with LGNPST (Manually putting the phone into Download mode is only done to check that the port number is the same as it is when the phone is booted normally with DIAG mode enabled.) LGNPST should put the phone into Download mode for you after clicking Start.

You could upload the screenshot to a free image hosting service and put the screenshot directly in your post using the yellow icon/button which says "Insert Image" when you hover your cursor over it. You don't need to use the attachment feature.

Do you have any Antivirus/Firewall/Security applications running/enabled on your PC?

You could also try manually registering the rest of those DLL files (I only had to register 17 of them and I'm not sure that all of them were necessary), but there are 34 total in the C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Components 4.0 folder. You might try that for the rest of the DLL files too in the other folders.

What do the log files say in the C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Model\LOG folder?
 
Can someone please give me a step-by-step guide on how to push the files in adb? I have successfully flashed the jcase .tot file and installed Android SDK. I just need to know how to push the files to the phone. I would appreciate any help you guys can offer.

Make sure USB debugging is enabled on your phone. (Settings>Applications>Development).

Windows 7:
1. Find the location of your android SDK installation and copy the files you downloaded named jc.sh and su to the platform-tools folder (It's probably here - C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\). Make sure you see a file named adb.exe in this folder, as you will need it for this operation.

2. Click on the Start button in your Windows task bar (it's the Windows logo) to open the menu. Click on the text box at the bottom which says "Search programs and files." Type cmd.exe and you should then see a list of results. At the top of that list, under the Programs heading, you should see a listing for cmd.exe. Right-click on the listing for cmd.exe and click "Run as Administrator" from the context menu which pops-up.

3. A window will open which states your Windows version and probably shows C:\Windows\system32> followed by your cursor.

4. Type cd C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\ (unless you installed the SDK someplace else) and hit the Enter-key.

5. Type adb push su /data/local/tmp/su and hit the Enter-key.

6. Type adb push jc.sh /data/local/tmp/jc.sh and hit the Enter-key.

7. Type adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/jc.sh and hit the Enter-key.

8. Type adb reboot and hit the Enter-key.

9. Download the Superuser app from the Play Store.

That should be it.

Note: Some root-dependent apps require busybox, so you may want to install a busybox installer too from the Play Store. I installed busybox in /system/xbin/.
 
Many thank yous to everyone that has worked on this! I now have root! This is a wonderful community of extremely helpful people. I appreciate every single person's effort in achieving this. Now we need ROM development (Jerry, I'm looking at you). I would love to be able to run ICS on this bad-boy!
 
I had the same problem with the components from jcases post, I had downloaded LGNPST from another spot and tried to install those components and they did install without the error. Not sure if this is related to your problem?

Good Luck

Here's the link to the jpg screenshot- Download emergency.jpg from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way

And I only put it in download to make sure the COM port is the same. Whenever I try to flash it, I enable DIAG mode and let the LGNPST reboot it. And I manually registered the DLL files in Component 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 folders with no change in the flashing process.

Here is the log file-http://www.sendspace.com/file/w0eunz

It may be time for me to borrow my sisters laptop for a bit -_-


Thank you for helping me ktb83 :)

Hmm, I'll give that a go. Thanks for the suggestion
 
Note: Some root-dependent apps require busybox, so you may want to install a busybox installer too from the Play Store. I installed busybox in /system/xbin/.

I noticed no busy box. When I went to install an installer from the store, the first one would not install busybox 1.20. Said something about my root. I noticed it was trying to put it in system/xbin . The next installer was successful installing busybox in system/bin. My question is what's the difference in the two locations and does it matter that mine is in bin instead of x bin?
 
The LOG seems to look OK until here, when the connection times out waiting for a response and then for whatever reason it is unable to reestablish the connection on that port. I know this is frustrating, but maybe you could just try a different port, try something like port 40 or higher:

I noticed no busy box. When I went to install an installer from the store, the first one would not install busybox 1.20. Said something about my root. I noticed it was trying to put it in system/xbin . The next installer was successful installing busybox in system/bin. My question is what's the difference in the two locations and does it matter that mine is in bin instead of x bin?

It should work OK in either location.
 
I had the same problem with the components from jcases post, I had downloaded LGNPST from another spot and tried to install those components and they did install without the error. Not sure if this is related to your problem?

Good Luck

Would you mind directing me to the spot where you downloaded your version of LGNPST please?
 
The LOG seems to look OK until here, when the connection times out waiting for a response and then for whatever reason it is unable to reestablish the connection on that port. I know this is frustrating, but maybe you could just try a different port, try something like port 40 or higher:

Is this what the Model folder looks like?

Perhaps unblock the DLL:

And just a reminder, be sure firewall and antivirus software is turned off. Sorry, I know it feels like we're beating a dead horse here.

Yes, thats what it looks like. And I already did that to the .dll, it had no effect. Something that I find odd, is that whenever LGNPST restarts the phone, all of the .dll data goes away. You know, in the upper right hand corner of LGNPST? The phone reboots and its like the program stops associating that .dll file to the phone :/

I sort of remember that being normal. With how iffy this has been, I'm worried to try flashing it again myself. The log file does show that the correct DLL is being used.

What antivirus/firewall/security software are you using?
 
I sort of remember that being normal. With how iffy this has been, I'm worried to try flashing it again myself.

Yup, I'm a full admin, and I have firewall, anti-virus, and UAC turned off. And I wouldn't be worried, because my computer must be weird. I'm the only one that seems to be having this sort of problem, and whenever WhisperPntr teamviewed me to help with my MSL, she was having strange problems with it and had no idea why either. My computer is a custom rig, built from the ground up. Maybe there are some compatibility issues, although I don't know why because everything else about it works great :/ Wouldn't it be a shame...if my NVRam only got wiped out on the last phone because my computer is weird, and all of this finding MSL/SPC has just been wasted time? :O
 
Interesting.

Yeah, definitely try a different computer when you get the chance. This seems to be going nowhere.

The only other thing I would try is downloading Dependency Checker and opening each DLL to see if there is anything missing from your system, but it may be fruitless.
 
I searched google and this was one of the links
http://androidforums.com/optimus-m-all-things-root/558063-guide-using-lgnpst-stock-2-2-2-a.html
I uninstalled everything and followed the directions on installing LGNSPT and when I got to the components I got the error and eventually tried the components from this install.
Try restarting your computer, I swear I was having all sorts of problems registering the .dll and installing the drivers and I tried one more time after restarting and it worked.
Windows is challenging sometimes!
Make sure you have Admin rights, I know this sounds dumb but it works.
also someone posted about how to get permissions in Windows 7 somewhere in this thread I did that as well to register the .dll

Good Luck
 
I have a question, not sure if this is the right place , anyway, now that I've got root, is it save to do a factory reset without losing root or bricking phone? I know you can from a custom recovery, but not sure with a stock recovery. Thanks in advance.

I've tried 3 different versions of LGNPST, I've restarted numerous times, and I am on an admin account. Also, I installed that .reg key that added a "Grant Admin Full Control" option to the right click menu, and it hasn't changed anything. I'm pretty sure my rig is just weird :P

Thank you for trying to help though! I appreciate it!
 
I have bad news and good news :p

-My first rooted optimus elite i bricked on accident...Dumb me, i tried pushing framework and the phone paused on me and i pulled the battery out and it wouldnt even get passed the LG logo, so i plugged up the phone to the lgnpst under "emergency mode" (only mode I could get it in) and flashed the firmware like the normal processes, everything worked but i had no signal and the app for activating the phone kept foreclosing and saying "app not installed" It wouldnt even connect to satellite, I may have missed a step or it could have been saved, so i got a new one.

-good news I got a new optimus elite and I called virgin mobile and got the msl code and 15 mins later im already rooted :D
