Is it a kdz or LGNPST? I don't think Sprint uses kdz. But if you need it, look here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34558759

LS970 reporting as LG-E971

I am unable to factory flash my LG LS970 (US Sprint) because for some reason it is reporting itself back to the LG Flash tool as a LG-E971. I must have done something to change the default prop file or something, how do I fix this. I can boot into recovery, ADB, etc. Just no sideload.

Use lgnpst and the zvb or zvc bin to fix the information then run the flash tool. That's what I had to do because I had the same error as you

LG FlashTool Issue

So I bought an LG Optimus G last week, attempted to root and flash a rom but missed a step and now it's bricked. I can get it into download mode and I have the LG FlashTool as well as the .dll and .tot The only issue is it says I have the phone model lg-e971 so it gives me a FAIL. From what I've read its because I already have the zvc.tot on it so I have to revert back to the zvb.tot and then back to the zvc.tot correct?? If so, where do I find the zvb.tot to flash on there. I haven't been able to find it anywhere. If anyone happens to have a link to that .tot or can upload it for me that'd be much appreciated.

Did you flash an International version instead of a Sprint?
The .tot is the same as the .bin. Just use the dll that came with Flashtool. The bin is in the root guide.

E971 is the Canadian version of the OG. You or someone tried to install a Canadian ROM. The DLL you have is for the Sprint version. That's why you have the conflict.
Probably try to use LGNPST instead. Links for it are in the irc, and the teeny bin thread under Additional info.

Actually I'm not even sure that's gonna work. E971 is gsm and Sprint is CDMA. You may not have a Sprint phone.
Do you have an SD slot? Or Sim card?

Also, along with the post above, check the sticker that should be on the back of the phone for a model number.

I do have a sprint phone. Its just that I rooted it, then unlocked the bootloader and I guess I apparently missed a step somewhere because when I started it back up it just showed the LG screen and went black and so I assume that's it being bricked.

OK. Just checking.
Have you tried to get into recovery? If/ when you do, you'll probably need to do a factory reset.
Also, instead of the bin file, you may be able to use teeny bin.
And you shouldn't need to go back to zvb.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

It won't let me get into recovery, it'll only let me do the usb mode when I plug the usb in. otherwise it just shows the lg screen for half a second and then goes black till it kills my battery. If I hold down the power button for a few seconds and let go, it turns off but then boots back up and does it all over again.

Awesome!!!!!! Downloaded LGNPST and set it up (it was somewhat tricky like they said) but once I got it down I know what to do. Anyway I flashed the teenybin file to have the bootloader unlocked and custom recovery and I was able to reformat everything. Thanks a bunch. Maybe this thread will be of help to someone else along the way.

I've been reading the guides so let me clarify: if I can get into download mode, I can skip the first guide?
And I don't see sprint DLL or tot file. Can you point me to the download?

Do you mind if i make a thread in the sprint android development forum and link your server for easy access? Also I noticed download speeds are in the 100KB/sec. Is this because the server is getting hammered hard by downloads?

I could use stock recovery

Is it possible for someone to make a nandroid backup of their stock ROM, then post a DL link?
Then we could just DL the backup, manually copy it to our phone to the proper folder, and restore it through TWRP or CWM. Does that work?
I've never tried but it seems much more simple! Sorry in advance if that is a stupid idea and doesn't work. If not, explain why!

No that doesn't work because you can't make a backup in TWRP or CWM of the stock based ROM when you are unrooted since if you are unrooted you can't flash TWRP or CWM. The earliest you can make a nandroid backup is right after you root and flash TWRP recovery.
When you do an OTA, the Sprint stock OTA update looks for valid files in certain directories that the root method might have changed and any certificates might be invalid so it doesn't install. That is why some folks who rooted and then do the OTA and the OTA install fails and they get bootlooped. This is why they say if you are rooted, do NOT take the OTA update. If you must, like in the case of Verizon you should take the OTA first when you are unrooted, let it install and then root.

Thanks for responding!

is there a flashable stock image? i had made a backup in twrp but somehow accidentally wiped everything including sdcard when i was wiping.

Am asking because I thought that the zip file we all downloaded could be flash via recovery and not just the flash tool?
