[REQ] Anyone has stock recovery for Virgin Mobile USA One V?

Looked around and found nothing, guess the phone is too new.
I made this mistake of flashing CWM of GSM One V onto my VM One V, and while the phone still works now, the recovery crashes every time I attempt to use it - and I did not backup the recovery =( Anyway, I figured that this will be useful for other owners of the VM One V as well, so:
Does anyone out there have the VM One V, and have the means to extract its recovery partition? Can you post it? It'll be very helpful for the purpose of general reversibility of all kinds of hack. Much thanks in advance!
Just for reference, my software ver. (as displayed in the About page) is 1.08.652.6710RD.

I wish I had read this before... I just did the same thing :S

Could you upload your boot.img I screwed mine up...

I think Sprint is also cdma. Go to football's rom collection for Primo below, download the Sprint RUU and extract the recovery.img.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1591059

I'll report back within a couple minutes

The recovery works!! So much thanks CafeKampuchia (and Football)! I totally did not notice the "VM" in the name of the Sprint ROM =X
In case people find digging through the RUU too much trouble, here's the Virgin Mobile USA HTC One V 1.08.652.6 signed recovery for your convenience.
http://www.mediafire.com/?uo69rb7pajmo8rj
Will post the boot partition soon if RFrancis, or anyone who would PM me their email, is willing to test it. Don't want to post a faulty image, ya know. =)

Oh I'm here; i'll pm you my e-mail

I have tried to get root on one v virgin mobile:
Download this
Open the bat file through a windows computer and run it.Your phone should be in fastboot and then run the .bat file or according to your os the corresponding file...Thanks to paulobrien for the original root ..I just tried transferring the files and made some changes in boot.img !
Please report nd tell me if it works

Anyone tested it??

So i had to use cdm comments and after getting the massage (path not found) i figured out to change the path and all good for now. CM tho dosnt work. i can get into cm recovery but it wont let me back up. it says no path. I tried goo manager and it works. i could backup. so now the problem is that i cant uninstall system apps. im using root uninstaller and tried a few other tools. it wont work. Did i miss something? the other thing is im getting weak signal strength compered to my s3. Half as much bars. My battery drains crazy fast on that device i dont know why Im starting missing my s3(

How to "root" your Optimus G Pro AT&T

How to "root" your Optimus G Pro AT&T ONLY
This does work great. It will allow root.
1. (Optional if you have another means of un-RARing) Download and install 7-zip from here. You need this to open certain types of archives (specifically .rar, but you might also want to open .tar, .bz2, or other types of archives in the future). This program is supremely awesome in its ability to open almost any archive you throw at it. It's also unobtrusive and efficient.
2. Download and install LG USB Drivers from here. Without these drivers, your computer won't be able to effectively communicate with your phone. This is vital for the steps we will be taking.
3. Enable USB debugging by going to Settings->(General)->Developer options" and checking the box next to "USB debugging." You will get warnings. You can probably ignore them. This setting will allow you to run commands on your phone from your computer (via USB). For more info on the Android Debug Bridge, click here.
4. Download and extract (using 7-zip (or whatever)) the root exploit from here.
5. Connect your phone to the computer with your USB cable.
6. Put the phone into "Charge Only" mode at Settings->General->PC connection->USB connection type
7. Open CurrentRoot.bat and follow its prompts. You will need to change from "Charge Only" to "Media sync (MTP)" mode. The setting is in the same place.
8. Run SuperSU (now in your apps drawer) it and make sure it works. This program allows others to gain access to superuser privileges. For more info on rooting and what kind of stuff it lets you do, click here and/or use Google.

Any chances of a recovery?

No offense but, you literally just copied and pasted this from the original forum. There was nothing added to this that made it custom to our phone other than the title. There might not be a rule against it but I just feel a little weird about it being here. Sort of like a reposted YouTube video.

Being more familiar with Samsung rooting, HTC and Motorola devices. When its time to return the OG Pro to stock and unroot what is the proper method, I think this is also important to have outlined.

Yup, worked fine on my laptop - Win8 64 bit.

I followed the instructions and even ran the currentRoot file as administrator after unrar the whole "ZV9-ZVB-Root folder" to the desktop.
After it says root successful, I still couldn't find the superuser in my apps as described. I have downloaded SU from play store and I still have no root access.
Please see the attached pictures of my root process and let me know if I am doing anything wrong.
Whatever I do, attached pictures are coming upside down. Sorry!

returning to stock from root?
At this point in development, if I root my phone and do softbrick or bootloop it how can I return to stock setup? With the bootloader locked is this not possible at this state. I would like to go ahead and root , but I feel as though there is no safety net. What are the alternatives....
Thanks.....

need help from someone who is s-off and not *TAMPERED*

ive got a dump from andy,whom is tampered.
now id like a dump from someone who is s-off,rooted,and NOT showing tampered in the bootloader,please
in the booted os,plug in,open a cmd window:
adb shell
su (if needed)
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p7
exit (exit again if needed)
adb pull /sdcard/mmcblk0p7
youll find a file named mmcblk0p7 in your adb folder. please upload somewhere and pm me a link. i have successfully changed my t mobile one from tamper free,back to *tampered*,and then back to tamper free again. i just need to make sure you vzw guys are the same
dont worry,this is harmless- just dumping a partition,not making any changes.

um the title is asking for someone who is S-Off. Unless you're S-off and havent rooted yet...

Happy to help, but not real familiar with adb... I may need a little hand holding, this is what I got and it doesn't seem right. What mode should my phone be in? I've got about 25 minutes before I have to leave for a few hours... but if anyone's around, I can help until then.

Ah my fault. I took the "lemme change the title real quick" to mean straight stock.

I can confirm that you need root to read mmcblk0p7. Permission denied otherwise. With a stock device, someone would have to be "in the know" with a root exploit thats being withheld to get at that partition.

You've done everything correctly. There is no need for adb pull, simply plug in your phone and mount it as a storage device like you would if you were going to add music to it or get pictures off. You will see the file in the root of the mounted volume.
Or, use a file manager on the phone to email the file to you, or upload to dropbox, ect.

Oh, that wasn't directed at you. I had just tried it as well!

Just sent to scotty... sorry guys, be back in a few hours.

thanks dspcap,i saw exactly what i expected.
since the revone tool no longer works on hboot 1.54+ im not sure if this will work or not,as i asume it is doing something very similar.
but if you want to try it,im pretty sure the worse that will happen is that tampered wont go away. ive flipped back and forth a few times on my phone(hboot 1.44) and i dont *think* anything bad would happen except for the failure to work. but at any rate,try at your own risk.
in the booted OS,in a shell,enter:
echo -ne '\x00' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 bs=1 seek=4265988
then back out,and boot to bootloader. hopefully tampered is gone. give beaups a high five for telling me the command so yall didnt have to dump,hex edit, and dd the partition back.
anxious to hear if it works for you or not

Seems pretty safe to try though, so if no one else steps up I most likely will.

just copy and paste so you dont mis-type the command

IMO its not safe at all to flash an hboot that wsant really intended for your device,tho sonic has done it with no apparent consequences.
im not 100% sure what revones tool is doing,so its hard to guess what might happen. i dont know if hboot is asserting some write protections,despite being s off,or why exactly their tool does not work with 1.54 maybe some other firmware is preventing the tool from working,im not really sure.
in theory,the adb command is a bit simpler and more probable to work. if 1.54 is in fact asserting some write protections,then it will fail just the same,with no harm done.
