I notice Whitey hid the main content of the solution. That confused the CRAP out of me when I first joined. For those of you coming into the forum for the first time, you'll need to join the forum real quick, then click the 'Thanks' button in the bottom right corner of that post. Then you will be able to see the hidden content.

Peace out!

If a Virgin Mobile phone can be felled, anything can!

KUDOS! This worked. Took me a while, but it finally worked.

For the method of making your phone 'time out' long enough for the NV Edit to get to 100%, I took the mp3 method and twisted it a little. Rather than using actual mp3's, I took a 1mb file and changed the extension to .mp3. This way, I could fit as many (fake) mp3's onto my card (which is only 2gb, so using actual mp3 files didn't make it time out long enough). Just keep adjusting the amount of mp3's until it hits 100%.

Now to figure out how to do the other things I need to do since I've come this far. Thanks again!

Using Bitpim, looking at everything, but not sure what I'm looking for, tried renaming my custom ringtones but they just disappeared, glad we got this far, hopefully we can get a bit further. I don't wanna mess with it too much so I ruin something, but maybe if I knew what I was looking for I might be able to assist further in helping crack this nutshell which is the VM LG Rumor Touch!
