THE FOLLOWING METHOD OF ENABLING SEND_COMMAND IS VERY DANGEROUS. ONE SECOND TOO LATE IN PULLING THE CORD AND YOU WILL HARD BRICK YOUR DEVICE. ( @Agimax and I have personally bricked one each already using this method)
- Copy ROM image to the root directory of your INTERNAL storage.
- Carefully open Send_Command port:
- Download & Install the LG Drivers & LG Up
- Download LG_Root.zip.
- Download ZVB TOT
- Run LG UP with the ZVB TOT file
- Once it gets to 9% on your PC (not on your phone)(and you see a green COM# on your phone screen) -[Takes 20-30 seconds at most], disconnect the phone and close LG UP. **If you f-up this step YOU WILL have a HARD BRICK**
- Download and extract LG_root.zip
- Connect your phone again and run ports.bat
- Now check which COM# for LGDIAG port
- Send_Command.exe \\.\COMxx
- Command to flash is listed next to the download near the end of this post.
- After you issue the command with Send_Command.exe, it should pause for about 2 minutes then go back to #.
- Type LEAVE then pull battery when complete.

Regarding the GLOBAL version: If you are a GSM/Global user, please flash that version. For now, they are not a unified build. It does not work properly for Sprint/CDMA users. If you have Sprint & want to try it, go ahead, but it will probably be really buggy.
