Root [MOD] CWM touch 6.0.1.1 Install

Actually was way off, its under backup and restore, choose backup format.. editing last post too so no misinformation..

oh ok...so you do it from actually cwm recovery and not rom manager then..?

*EDIT: idk y but i never really thought to look there. i usually use rom manager for doing backups but that is just an already running way to interact with cwm so it makes sense...thanks again! great news for me! ;)

Does someone have a backup of stock zvd? I made a back up with cwm touch a long time ago and today i tried to restore it, but it didn't work, an error came up and now i don't have a backup.. help me please.. :( what can i do????

Bump. I am in the same boat. I cant seem to get back to stock. I tried the guide for using android commander and push the files to the phone...that did absolutely nothing...and before that I have used LGNPST sucessfully before but now for some reason in windows 7 it, for me, force closes when reading phone state.

Is there something we can do??

Try these

LGNPST - http://androidforums.com/esteem-all...s-downgrade-zvd-zvc-zvb-emer-pb-recovery.html

Android commander (5th post down) - http://androidforums.com/esteem-all-things-root/573459-how-go-back-stock-lg-esteem.html

Im going to try this next - http://androidforums.com/esteem-all...d-recovery-stock-bloated-zvd.html#post4075790

good luck! :)

*EDIT: I had no luck with the third option either...ran into the same md5 checksum error some other people posting there had. I guess I'm just going to have to figure out some way of getting LGNPST to work because as long as I can keep the program from force closing I know it works because Ive used it before...IDK why its acting so weird now.

So the only possible option is LGNPST???


I'm sure there's many...any of the above i listed *should* work they just haven't for me for some reason...i know LGNPST works because I've successfully used it before its just that right idk y but it keeps fcing on me...there may be other options too those are some i found in a quick google search of af.

This will flash CWM Touch 6.0.1.1 to your phone.

I used the previous CMW Touch I had and PG's Touch and the 6.0.1.1 IMG file and made a whole new install.



READ THIS CAREFULLY!!!!!

Now with CWM 6.0, not just touch but 6.0 in general, CWM has changed the way they make backups. You might have noticed a folder next to your "backups" folder named "blobs". CWM makes backups like a pc makes backups now. When you make your FIRST backup with 6.0, it might take longer than normal. This is because it is completely backing up everything. Ok, so say you download some apps and you want to make another backup. CWM will scan to see what has changed and ONLY backup the files thats changed while leaving the files that didn't change untouched because they are already backed up.

So when you go to restore a backup, it will scan through the blobs folder for the files pertaining to that specific backup. So it's very very very important that you DONT TOUCH THE BLOBS folder.

If you delete a backup, the NEXT time you run a backup, CWM will manually DELETE the files in the blobs folder that aren't present anymore.

Make sense? Whats the purpose of this you ask? Well it will save you time if you make a lot of backups like me and it will save you space. Instead of having 5 backups that are all the same except for a couple of apps, you will have 5 backups but only the differences within those 5 backups you made will get backed up.

I recommend trying to flash it first through ROM Manager under LGE Esteem 4G NOT LGE Esteem.
