1. Grab LGNPST and stock .bins here - http://pastebin.com/0KK0QynV
**If you are NOT using LGNPST 2.2.3+ then your LGNPST is outdated and must be UNINSTALLED FIRST**
**You will also have to uninstall the outdated LGNPST components, separate from LGNPST itself**

2. Unzip files after downloading.. both LGNPST and the stock .bin

3. Run the install.bat file in the LGNPST folder to begin the install…
**Right mouse click on the install.bat file and choose > Run as administrator**
**Right mouse click on the install.bat file and choose > Run as administrator**

4. Launch LGNPST. Power phone off. Now put phone into Download Mode*...
**Read here for Download Mode - http://pastebin.com/NxqEPcpL **
**If LGNPST says "DONGLE ERROR" see here - http://pastebin.com/gZRQtuXH **

5. In LGNPST near the top you will see an "UNKNOWN" device and COM port. That means LGNPST sees your phone.
In the LGNPST Emergency tab - select .dll(lgnpst_ls970.dll) and the .bin you want to flash.
**Can't select the lgnpst_ls970.dll? See here - http://pastebin.com/b1XUws0M **
** See LGNPST screenshot here for a visual usage guide - http://bit.ly/16Tpp0J **

6. Press start on LGNPST. You will be warned that "data" will be lost(it won't be)… hit OK.

7. Wait for LGNPST to hit 67% or 85% and phone will reboot. ALL DONE! ***
***LGNPST WILL REBOOT YOUR PHONE AT 67/85%. THE FLASH IS FINISHED AT 67/85%.. DOESN'T NEED TO REACH 100%!!***

**If your phone doesn't reboot at 67% or 85% and is STILL sitting in download mode it may be best to wait for it to hit 100% then maybe try running it again without disconnecting your phone from the usb cable. If you can't run it again while your phone is still connected... unplug the phone and close/reopen LGNPST[WHILE PHONE IS STILL IN DOWNLOAD MODE]. Something is not right if your phone doesn't automatically reboot at 67% or 85%**

ATT E970: Pwr Off. Vol down + power will bring you to Factory Reset screen.

Sprint LS970: Pwr Off. Vol down + power... wait until buttons light up. Immediately release power button while still holding vol down. You will boot into stock recovery. Select Factory Reset.

If your are unlocked or used a TeenyBin and want to do a "factory reset", on all LGOG's, press vol up + power.. then boot into recovery(vol down, pause, volume down, power button) and you will be in custom recovery. Wipe data/factory reset and reboot.

If steps above fail try to manually install LGNPST with guide found here - http://bit.ly/10RVjXI

If you are using Linux/OS X or simply can't install this on Windows... you can install vmware [vmplayer, vmware workstation, vmware fusion(OS X)] and use this Windows VM image with preinstalled LGNPST - http://bit.ly/XA3dpQ
