Wouldn't work. You'd brick your phone attempting anything like that as you'd be missing multiple partitions worth of info. Also, and this seems silly, but I'm going to ask. You are deleting all data before attempting to move over to CM? Everything you've said so far seems to point in that direction.

Yes, I backed everything up with Titanium backup and Rom Manager and I'm doing multiple data wipes from CWMT including cache and dalvik. I've also thrown an Android factory reset in on the 1st boot under any new ROM just for good measure. All in all, everything JB based so far has failed miserably. I did finally manage to get the Spectrum_OTA_ICS_debloated_v1.1.zip to work, so I'm better off than when I started, but I'm still longing for that CM goodness...

Thanks again for help!!

I'm having a problem with bootloops, too. I had CM 10.1 for about a month. It was awesome. Then I took out my sd card and put in a different one to download a rom for a different phone. I think the sd card I put in was damaged. Then I put the original card back in and rebooted and it started up, went through the Lg screen, started the CM logo (spinning blue circle), then it stops and reboots. I tried the KP 500 tool on three different laptops and for some reason, no success. I was successful with the tool on my desktop, but I recently switched it to Ubuntu. So now I'm stuck using my old Samsung Fascinate while my awesome Spectrum sits. this sucks

Hopefully this thread is still being watched. I had the same problem as one of the other comments, being that I rooted then deleted google movies, thus bricking to the 'Security Error' page. I get stuck at the same page error "fatal error cannot update" that he got. But unfortunately, playing with the drivers has gotten me nowhere. I'm not a noob by any means, but I still get confused.

Any ideas on how to get this to run correctly?

Also, When it asks for "Version<SW version> <Ex: V10G_04>:" what do I put? I'm using the '08' newest one, but not sure how I should type it out? or do I just hit Enter and leave it blank?

Any help ASAP would be great. I seem to be 95% correct, but this 5% is killing me

Ok, so after reading a few other threads, I realized the problem wasn't the drivers, but in fact the "Version <VS software>" part. I needed to enter the VS920..... from the previous line WITHOUT the .cab at the end. Working as we speak on the first attempt.

Just thought I would share in case anyone else had the same problem.
