Hey Everyone,

After much frustration trying to root my Eve on Windows 7 Pro 64bit, I gave up and used a linux distro (Linux Mint 9), suggested by another poster here...sorry can't remember who it was

It was incredibly easy and took at most 30 minutes.

I used the LiveCD version but will probably put it on a USB key next time.

I've had some experience with linux but I consider myself a major n00b so I'll do my best to detail the issues I had experienced. It's a bit fuzzy now since it was pretty late when I finished. If something is incorrect, someone please correct me =)

I installed sdk on my Desktop.

1) When I installed sdk and jre, I was receiving errors, such as "adb not found" and java errors. I wasn't sure how to add the path to my profile.

export PATH=${PATH}:/home/mint/Desktop/android/tools:/home/mint/Desktop/android/tools/jdk1.6.0_22/bin

2) I also received "error: insufficient permissions for device.

Type to restart the service: adb kill-server
Type to check whether the device is available: adb devices

3) I believe I had to login as root (Administrator for Windows) or "sudo su" on Mint to make these changes. I can't remember whether I received an error but I figured that I needed more access to make these changes.

I hope someone finds this helpful and thanks to everyone who worked on making rooting the LG Eve possible =)

this will help
the flasher should work for you

Hey all,
I'm pretty new to Android. I got the LG GW620r (Rogers) and the first thing I did was to use the LG update tool to upgrade to 1.6. Big mistake. Now I can't load fastboot.

I tried the various tutorials found on OpenEtna and Guimmerl with no luck. The KDZ updater would either crash or give me the "lparam" and "wparam" error. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit and I tried to run as admin, run in Windows XP (both SP2 and SP3) compatibility mode, with and without Windows Enabler (whatever that does). Here's one of my error log files from KDZ_FW_UPD:

Quote:

[17:35:35:924] : Log finished

Can anyone help me downgrade to a ROM that allows fastboot? I'm somewhat familiar with Linux so I can try that if it's the way to go.

Many thanks,
Alfred

You're on the right track! This is where you shut down your phone (remove battery) then turn it back on in FASTBOOT (i.e. hold space as soon as the screen lights up, before the LG logo).

Then you're set for OpenEtna via WinFlash

Im following the instructions so kindly laid out by britbloke, but....... my xp sp2,with lg drivers installed and showing up in Device Manager will not show android phone in list , nor will it show me sdk usb driver to update driver with. I have usb debugging enabled, and root permissions enabled. I am following britblokes instructions to the letter as far as I can tell. Any thoughts?

Back in device manager, right click the second LG USB Modem, properties, Details tab.
Mine shows USB\VID_1004&PID_6171&MI_01\6&AF0B60F&0&0001
which doesnt match any entries in the INF file.
eg this was the first set of entries in winusb.inf (scroll down a bit to see them)
; HTC Dream
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C01
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C02&MI_01
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FFF

so I copied them & pasted in my vendor ID to make another set for my phone and inserted at the top:
; LG GW620
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_1004&PID_6171
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_1004&PID_6171&MI_01
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_1004&PID_0FFF
;
saved the file, and tried update driver again, again pointing it to usb_driver directory
=> bingo, it found it, installed an Android Phone device with a child of Android Composite ADB interface.

Tried exactly what you did. Even added the "&REV_0100" that was in my device dscription (it was otherwise the same as yours) - didn't work.

Not sure what's going on.

I still can't get "Android Device" to show up in the list of device types. That's not a big deal because I can still tell it where to find the android_winusb.inf file. Last night I wasn't able to even get it to find the file, even after pasting in my phone's details like Jim_NZ did.

I used the rebuilt drivers this time. I get a little bit further, but not much. Now I get this:

Quote:

Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device

Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.

Android ADB Interface

The system cannot find the file specified.

If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software.

So where do I go from here? I guess the most important thing is, what specified file can windows not find? It clearly can find the file and knows it's a driver information file. But is it not finding something within the file that it's being pointed to? Here is some stuff from within the driver information file:

Quote:

[USB_Install]
Include = winusb.inf
Needs = WINUSB.NT
[USB_Install.Services]
Include = winusb.inf
AddService = WinUSB,0x00000002,WinUSB_ServiceInstall
[WinUSB_ServiceInstall]
DisplayName = %WinUSB_SvcDesc%
ServiceType = 1
StartType = 3
ErrorControl = 1
ServiceBinary = %12%\WinUSB.sys
[USB_Install.Wdf]
KmdfService = WINUSB, WinUSB_Install
[WinUSB_Install]
KmdfLibraryVersion = 1.7
[USB_Install.HW]
AddReg = Dev_AddReg
[Dev_AddReg]
HKR,,DeviceInterfaceGUIDs,0x10000,"{F72FE0D4-CBCB-407d-8814-9ED673D0DD6B}"
[USB_Install.CoInstallers]
AddReg = CoInstallers_AddReg
CopyFiles = CoInstallers_CopyFiles
[CoInstallers_AddReg]
HKR,,CoInstallers32,0x00010000,"WdfCoInstaller0100 7.dll,WdfCoInstaller","WinUSBCoInstaller.dll"
[CoInstallers_CopyFiles]
WinUSBCoInstaller.dll
WdfCoInstaller01007.dll
[DestinationDirs]
CoInstallers_CopyFiles=11
[SourceDisksNames]
1 = %DISK_NAME%,,,\i386
2 = %DISK_NAME%,,,\amd64
[SourceDisksFiles.x86]
WinUSBCoInstaller.dll = 1
WdfCoInstaller01007.dll = 1
[SourceDisksFiles.amd64]
WinUSBCoInstaller.dll = 2
WdfCoInstaller01007.dll = 2

these are not file names that I can see anywhere. But I'm not an expert on the stuff found inside driver files. Is it supposed to be looking for these file names or creating them? I don't really know.

This is so confusing.

Hi all, thanks for the tips, I got mine rooted...

but my problem now is with Fastboot. I got the phone into Fastboot mode but WindowsXP prompt for driver. The same drivers that were working in non-fastboot mode won't work. So, I cannot connect to the phone in Fastboot mode.

Anyone know what I should do next??

Thanks!
