Root [GUIDE] Unbrick OR Unroot LG Motion 4G [KDZ]

I have drivers installed. I'm using Windows 7 64 bit SP 1. The PC at work is Win7, but I think it's 32 bit. I also used a PC with Win XP SP 3.

Also, I just tried LGNPST v2.2.3. When it's initializing, I get "ERROR: Unable to load [LGNPST_NVStorage5.dll] Component Path = Version = HR = 0x80040154."
That happened on both the XP and the 64bit pcs.

Did you install LGNPST compnents and LGNPST generic??

Also look in device manager and tell me if there are any drivers that aren't installed.

Yes, I installed LGNPST Components and Generic msi files.

In device manager, I have "LGE AndroidNet USB Modem", and "LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM1)". Is that all I should have, or is something missing?

Change COM1 to a different number. That might be the problem...but unlikely.

Do you have USB 3.0 Ports?
Do you have a USB Splitter/HUB?

Does anyone know what this means?
22:44:46 : Model.dll load error. Please check model.dll was built Debug mode
22:44:46 : Model.dll must be build Release mode.
22:44:46 : Please check model.dll is correct.

It's what I get in LG Mobile Support tool, trying to flash the official cab to my phone.

Did you convert the cab to kdz. If not it won't work.

Yes, I did. I downloaded the cab from csmg.lgmobile.com, and my phone's esn.

Then I converted the cab to kdz using the LG R&D Test tool, "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe".

With that same program, I loaded the kdz file, clicked "Normal upgrade test", then "Upgrade Start".

That takes me to the support tool, which appears to work just fine until the moment the flashing is supposed to begin.
