[Q] Need help with lgnpst - Sprint LG Optimus G

Hi, I am new at this, and have no idea on what has to go on. Basically, my phone has gone in a security error and won't boot into android or recovery, although I can go into Download mode. When I do however, nothing shows up in my lgnpst. I have followed all of the instructions on tSilenzio's guide, nothing shows up though. My computer recognizes it as connected, but when I look at the ports, there is a yellow warning sign on it saying it won't boot (which I assume is normal?). Can anyone help me resolve this issue?
Edit: I have a question, I figured what might be the problem. I had no idea that the components were supposed to be installed. On the other hand, when i go to install them, i get a network error "1316" something about the installation being interrupted by the network or something. Is there any way to fix this?

When u first extract the lgnpst pack u should run the auto install as administrator... that may solve ur problem.

Not sure what you are referring to as components... First off did you install this LGNPST: AutoLGNPST-tSilenzio.zip (70.3 MB), IF so then the lgpnst should have installed fully and be ready to use. Secondly I would assume you do have but pays to find out are the LG drivers installed?
Had to remove links, sorry
IF you could provide some screenshots it would make helping easier.
GL!

If I'm reading your question right your asking about changing the COM port to port 41?
If I helped you, hit the thanks button please!

I haven't ever ran the autoinstall, but the issues you're having sound like a bad download, or install.
I'd uninstall your drivers and LGNPST. Then reinstall both.
Follow LGNPST install walk thru, then in the the teeny bin thread under Additional info is another walkthru for using LGNPST.

Yup. Ports.
You really don't have any 2.0 USB ports? Wow... I thought new computers had a least 1 2.0.
LGNPST has problems with 3.0 ports. I've heard it's hit or miss with it working on 3.0.
Good luck to ya.

In recovery you need to go to mount and mount usb storage to transfer files to the device. You don't need usb debugging enabled to transfer files. Just mount storage drag a rom over snd flash from recovery, or remove you ext sd and put it in a reader and transfer it that way. Just make sure when you go to flash or restore you choose external storage to find the files

rooting error

I am new to rooting lg phone. I have rooted and flashed my samsung transform and epic. Sorry about the rant just a little background on my exp. When i attempt to run the script i get a error adb is a unknown command. I will include a screenshot any help is appreciated. I am running win7 starter which is 32bit if that makes a difference also i downloaded and installed lg latest drivers as well. A couple other thoughts may or may not help i unzipped the files using the windows unzip feature. Thanks for the help.
Did you reboot after installing drivers? Its possible the driver you installed may not work. There's 3 of them here.

Ack! Help Please!

I flashed my phone yet again, figured I would put it back on lifeless 14 from pacman and I'm having some problems:
1. The phone starts up, lets me play with it for a couple of seconds and then begins a bootloop cycle.
a. I've tried wiping and wiping cache and davlik cache in TWRP many times including re-flashing multiple times and no good. Keeps doing it.
2. Another problem has developed during all of this. It appears that my sd card/internal sd card has been wiped but this is not true. I can't see my data with the phone booted up nor can I see anything connected to windows but....
a. When in TWRP, I can go to Advanced and explore the sd card and all of my files are there.
b. However, if I go to do a restore, no nandroid backups are visible even though I can see them in the advanced menu in TWRP.
I guess my question is, how can I copy all of my files off of the sd card so I can wipe everything, recopy the files back and start over?
All my pics and backups are still there, just not usable at the moment.
Thanks so much. I'm currently dead in the water until I get this resolved.

Thanks for the reply. I did wipe system, data, dalvic, and cache and I did do a factory reset. I did it all, multiple times. All m files are there, I just can access them on the pc or in TWRP unless I go to the advanced menu and file explore. I see everything there. This is very frustrating.
Now, I can't even boot to TWRP or the system. It just keeps flashing the lg splash screen and then goes to the blank backlit screen. I've held the power button down for 20-40 seconds and it either tries to restart or shuts off but I can't get it to go to the bootloader or anything. I've always been able to fix my phones when I've messed them up but this one is killing me.
Thanks for any help you can give. I really appreciate it.
If you don't have TWRP, or fastboot, and can't boot up, then you'll need to either LGNPST. Or LGFlashtool. Flashtool had its own thread. Lgnpst you'll find on irc, or teenybin thread under additional info.

Thanks, while waiting I was able to get the phone into download mode and found the LGFlashtool. When restoring my partitions, will this wipe my sdcard? The whole idea is I don't want to lose my photos or backups if at all possible.

You just never know. I've never used LGFlashtool so I can't say.
With lgnpst, if you wipe in twrp you'll save SD. But if you wipe in stock recovery, you will lose it.
There might be a way to get the files off your phone using adb. But I don't know how.

Yes it will.. it wipes everything...when u flash a bin restore..maybe tiny bins are different.. unless you have adb\fastboot u are pretty much gonna have to say bye to ur storage to save your phone

the lg flash tool will wipe it as if it's just coming out of the box, with handsfree activation and all. lgnpst will (afaik) wipe all but your data so you shouldn't lose your photos and stuff

Also if u can no longer get to recovery it may be to late to pull any files from ur phone

If you don't have TWRP, or fastboot, and can't boot up, then you'll need to either LGNPST. Or LGFlashtool. Flashtool had its own thread. Lgnpst you'll find on irc, or teenybin thread under additional info.

I've tried every bin on the page. I did get the dongle error originally but worked past that one.
Here is the screenshot. Not much info I'm afraid

you're right lol. try uninstalling lgnpst and reinstalling it, and double check the .dll that you're using. i don't have much experience with lgnpst so sorry if i'm not really helping

If I remember right the dll is LS970.dll. The bins should be either ZVB or ZVC. bin. You did register the dll right?

Apparently it was using a different dll last night. The one in the components 3.0 folder called LGNPST_Utility3.dll.
Today, it's not finding any dll nevermind the correct dll of lgnpst.dll. I think all I need now is to have the right dll, in the right place and registered. Frustrated. Thanks for all your help though, you've been amazing.

Do you need it? I'll see if I can find it if so.

I would so love to get my hands on that dll. This will have to be my last attempt before I go and plead with Sprint to allow me to transfer an upgrade from one of my other lines. I need this phone up ASAP. Totally killing me. Thanks.

Thanks man, had to run out before you replied so I stopped in at the Sprint store and the goofy thing must have been stuck in weird cycle or something because it wasn't charging all night. I left it plugged in to the wall using the original cable and block and it was completely dead. The rep plugged it in there for a few minutes and it booted right up to the lock screen without issue. I was even able to get into twrp too. I left it with them to do a manual zvc update and I'll reroot and unlock it again when I get it back in just a little bit.
I'm tired, I was up way to late messing with this last night. I appreciate all of your help. You guys have been awesome.
Wow, this has been an adventure!
The Sprint tech gave up. He could not manually flash it, wipe it, or anything. He could not get it to stop bootlooping on lifeless either. He then thought it was a bad battery or screen so he replaced both (at not charge thankfully) and finally gave up.
So my choices were to have them get me a refurb under the warranty (I don't have insurance) for $50 or borrow an upgrade from another line in which I have no desire to upgrade, it's an extra phone. Either way, Sprint cleared me for both without any penalties on my line as far as my regular upgrade date goes.
So he gave me the phone back and of course I had to mess with it.
I got it to boot to TWRP and I finally got the phone to flash pacman again, had to store the files in some obscure folder on the storage and flash it from there.
With pacman flashed, I was able to get all my files off of my sdcard!
Now, I would like to roll back to lifeless or nexOGen or something more stock. All my problems occurred yesterday when I tried this. Does pacman on 4.3 change something that won't allow me to flash back?
Thanks again for any advice.
All you had to do was wipe SD to solve all your issues.
4.3 uses a different folders it says it under sdcard/0 and stock does not that's why on stock you can't see files you had.
You can pull your files using adb pull to grab things you want to keep.

If you still have recovery, just install a stock ROM.
If you need help on the tool, try the LGFlashtool thread. It would get you more responses. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2443185
i do have recovery still but there is no OS on the phone, so it will not mount usb
