Root Error in Downgrading to ZVB

[Mexjoker]

Did you get it back like those guys said by trying to upgrade it? As long as your phone reflects ZVB that is.
LGNPST is always an option also.

Didn't work. And i feel a little sad but your avatar is helping solve that problem xD

Lol
Hmm..pls tell that your CPU sees your phone.

 

[Mexjoker]

Yes it does, but when i plug it in, A message pops up on the phone that says "You can not switch usb mode in test mode". Both the LG Update Tool and LGNPST pick up the phone. Picks it up As MS910ZVB

Ok...you still have recovery right?
Lets bring it back this way

That's what you get for not being happy with ZVD, the best version. *wiggles finger in a disapproving manor*

Well upgrading didn't work. I think I'm just going to go to a corporal store and see what they can do :/

I'm on zvd but that didn't fix my problem

 

[gbiggie]

Have never seen it erase that info before.
Grrrr...hooked it up to LGNPST and everything looked good. Went through the update process fine.

 

[Mexjoker]

Don't know what could have went wrong

 

[gbiggie]

Post up a pic of what your "about phone" looks like

 

[Mexjoker]

Can't take screenshots lol But

My Phone Number
UNKNOWN

MIN
UNKNOWN

PRL Version
UNKNOWN

Is what it looks like lol So Far Manually Programming It and Upgrading To ZVD Have Not Worked

It's got to be in the activation.

Have you called Metro PCS and gone through the activation process with them?

Maybe BIG has some more answers. :/

This might work. For the esteem (and practically all new metropcs phones) it's ##626* then 587846.

Your MDN (mobile device number) is your phone number, SID is 6503, and you might have to call metropcs to get your MIN.

Call an authorized metropcs store and ask them if they can give you your MIN. Or call 888-8metro8. You'll need your phone number and your 8 digit pin (usually your birthday).

 

[Mexjoker]

Already Did That. Didn't work at all

Heres a screenshot of what it looks like.

I read thru all this thread and didnt see nobody mention a factory reset I downgrade from zvd to zvb all the time and most of the time I encounter errors but a factory reset takes care of most of those errors for the unknown prl I suggest the program called qpst

 

[Mexjoker]

Trued factory reset. Nada and heard of that. Its where i try and push the prl to the phone, right?

 

[Fabian209]

Yeah have you tried it? if you havent google "manually changed prls on the lg esteem" and im sure the thread with instructions will pop up because besides changing the prls on your device you can change the spc code and since your phone is not asking for one in order to changed the prls you need the spc code and if it doesn't ask you for one maybe you can write one on your device and try to downgrade again to zvb

 

[Fabian209]

when you did the reset was it a hard reset or a soft reset or both?
