Root [ROM] Stock|Root|DeOdex|DeBloated ZVE

To be honest i'm quite surprised, I believe you are the first one i have read that the update worked with a rooted phone... And it does suck that root got striped but Nice Work! :)

Thanks, I guess ;)

I usually read about something when I don't know where to start or after I mess it up really bad, lol. I STRONGLY ADVISE following directions, after all, two wrongs don't make a right. I was lucky maybe? :D

i did the same,i was rooted with rom #2 2.5zvd,and i unrooted and did the updatething and within a few mins,i was up to date to zve,now trying to get things bk towards what i left off from,had sum probs with losing root and things but guess its fixed now lol,guess its time to tinker with somethings and see what happens ; )

Alright I'm in the same position as you do you know if there is certain way to re-root once your on ZVE or would you do the same thing as we all did the first time?

Like would this way work...

well im no programmer or anything but,i found a flaw flashing over zve,my 4g doesnt work,wifi good,just no 4g any ideas how to maybe get around it orsomething i can do

Honestly that's why I'm so scared to re-root it because even right now I'm having that problem as well... 4G will come on for about 30 seconds then so service for about 5 minutes then 3G will come on and stay but the 4G wont come back for a while

Unless something on your phone is gonna save the world (or your life) just do a full wipe, install a rom of your liking, go thru the LG update to zve, re-root, install cwm then install your rom of choice. Nothing I do is worth all this backup/ nandroid nonsense so for me, I DON'T CARE! lol, all in good spirit :D

You're gonna be fine... Can't worry bout everything in life. It's all in our makers hands :D

As far as my 4G? It's a lot like my paychecks... It comes then IT GOES :mad:
It works 90% of the time so I'm good w that.

Hope all works out for you.. We will all experience a different out come for the most part but the beautiful thing I found about this forum/ community is with the sheer amount of support and knowledge, you can't go wrong (as long as you read) ;)
