LG Optimus S,V,T and One Recovery Flasher [ROMtools] Software: Download

This Flasher tool is a big help to install the LG Optimus S, V, T ROM firmware and Flash recovery. It will also help you install all the needed drivers as well as obtain root privileges.
Instead of using ADB and typing out ADB commands, this program combines some of the most common tasks we perform with ADB and automates them for you, according to the creator of this software mmmark111

How does this works on LG Optimus S,V,T and One Android Phones?

Flash ROM - Place a ROM in the 'ROM' folder renamed rom.zip. Hit enter and the zip will get flashed to your phone automatically

Flash Recovery - Will help you flash a recovery to your phone. For the Optimus V users, it will help you install all the needed drivers as well as obtain root privileges. Optimus T, S, and One phones will be able to flash a recovery.

Wipe dalvik-cache - Self explanatory .

Mount /system r/w - Allows read/write access to /system

Push ROM to SD card - Self explanatory (pushes to root of sd)

Push framework-res.apk - Pushes framework-res.apk to /framework, wipes dalvik-cache, and reboots the phone for you.

Push bootanimation.zip - Will remove boot animation and replace with one of your choice. (removes from /data/local as well as /system/media)

Reboot - Reboot

Reboot into Recovery - Obv.

Recoveries
