Downgrade
Many thanks to dual18 and Jackpot08 for the original post and links on this much needed process. Props to matter0ni also who contributed information needed to help the process run a bit cleaner.

Prior to beginning back up all important documents, pictures, contacts, settings, ECT.

I have tried to follow these directions to the letter from both Win7 Ultimate 64-bit and WinXP 32bit Professional.

It gets all the way to 99% and then fails and gives me an error message.

I have hard reset my phone and retried and it is still failing.

I have attached a screen shot of the error message that I am receiving from LGNPST.

I am at a loss as to how I can get my phone downgraded back to zvb

I have never seen that before...I will see if I can come up with a solution for you.
Have you totally uninstalled the programs on your CPU and start anew?

I can't find anything on that error!:mad: Try deleting everything and start anew...I just ran the program again (starting from scratch -cause I can! ;))

I'd love to be rooted and try these new romz but. Last time i tried to downgrade with my lg optimus M I bricked it and did everything i could to fix it but at the end. had to get a new one from metro and took em almost three weeks to get me one. so I might wait till there's a new root.

I have done it 3 times now with no issues..it IS a painless procedure . :)

someone help me when i put the MS910ZVB file to upgrade on my phone it just remains at 0% and when i try to start over the .bin format wont appear when im looking for the .tot file

Expand and diminish the list to the right of the port in the program. save the tot file to your desktop so that it will be easily found.
