LG L40G rooting
Hi, I see you said you got your optimus extreme rooted. I have been trying to do the same forever, but get many permission denied notices, etc..
Mine is a Net10 phone and I know they use added security, but if there is a way to root this phone, I would love to know the proceedure! Thanks a million! Kevin

LG L40G (Optimus Extreme) rooting problem
I tried the method you meantioned and I got to where the program got stuck in running loop. I can get into my rom and see that security is on, and it asks for a pin to be able to disable Nand. This phone is very specific to Net10, hard to find in a search or on any list. I thank everyone who offers and has offered any advice on this. Thanks!

Yes I have the net ten phone also..your gunna run the .bat file then it the phone should ask you for a recovery pin number you can put in any number you want just has to be 4 or 5 digits I used the last 4 of my net10 cell number then it should reboot the phone and it might give you an error on the program but phone should reboot to normal then try it again a couple times it should say every thing success full once you see that reboot the phone and run the program again if I says successful again then your good download root checker and super user from market n run the root checker and should be good like I said be for I have this phone also bought it from best buy its the net 10 lg extreme .. its gonna give you a hard time for a couple tries but it will work I think I'm probly the only one to have done it with this program so u should be the second

When you run the program what option did you pick for your phone it should be the last option that dosnt have a phone model ...but this is how I did it exactly ... 1.download the file
2.hard reset the phone holding volume down home button n power once the lg logo appears at start up let go of the power button should factory reset ..
3.go to settings allow unknown sources USB debugging in able..
4.plug the phone to computer. Should have all the lg drivers installed ... of course ..when the phone prompts for USB connection type click on the one that says lg install or something like that should install some extra drivers if you haven't done that already.
5.then run the program as administrator if you aren't already then click the last option.
6.it should push all the files to phone should get fail for a certain amount of it .. but should prompt on your phone for a recovery pin put in any number you wish
6.it should reboot phone.. repeat the program again same options enter a recovery pin at promt and phone should reboot again repeat until it gives you all success full promps on your computer then repeat one more time ...
7. You should have root after the second success full attempt check install root checker n super user ..run root checker n ur all set..
8. Just a tip after you get root on your l40g you can factory reset it or hard reset it if you want and you won't loose root nor brick your device...

Unbelievable, I am finally rooted. Thanks so much! Now the only thing I have left is to find a custom rom as well. I know the Lg L5 is very similar but I dont think I will trust it to be close enough to flash with. I guess we will all keep waiting or just be happy with what we've gotten so far

Please, get in your correct device section.
This issue was thoroughly discussed at another thread, and the only way users found to solve it was to deliver it to LG for a new board.
The sd format under CM7 issue, I mean.
I had this happen to me all the I apparently pressed reboot into bootloader by accident and my phone turned off and never turned back on. I was also running cyanogen mod. I tried everything but nothing worked it didn't even turn on so I just went to att and they sent me a new phone.

I dont think it is possible to brick the optimus 3d. The issue of not being able to reflash may be due to driver conflicts/combo of windows 7 etc.
Run device manager. Expand the ports and usb serial bus controllers
Take out battery of optimus 3d
hold down volume up and while holding up, insert cable.
There should be the omap 4430 popping up for a few seconds
Also during this process, the other usb drivers for the phone should be activated and displayed if they were previously installed. If not, then it should start searching for the drivers and update.
Insert battery
If there are issues with drivers updating, try another pc and install the lg drivers from scratch using windows xp.
Its not required to install the omap 4430 driver to flash a rom
You can then use the official lg recovery tool, enter your imei and it will download and install the stock rom
There are other methods on flashing using kdz files (a good tutorial is available somewhere in this forum) you would need to block the lg updater from checking however

[Q] Urgent Help needed

Hi Experts,
I was successfully able to flash ICS on my LG O3D but only .bin file and after that i tried to root phone was not sucessfully all the time ,restarted later and now my phone is not switching on properly.It shows LG logo then goes blank. PLEASE HELP.
Thanks in Advance.
When connected its showing charging and in device manager-->other devices showing CDC Serial & LGE COSMO USB Device
Did you try reflash it again ???
Try flash it with "lg smartflash" it tooo easy (just select the .bin file and .fls) .

Thanks a lot for the reply.
I tried but nothing happening..its not detecting as usb to change port to 41.
Is there any other way?? Also for flashing when i insert battery and press volume up and then connect it starts and shows LG logo and goes blank.
It is not showing in PORT in device manager when connected pressing volume + button
Does the phone go to download mode ("S/W upgrade mode ) ?? By insert the battery while you hold vol+ ??
You will see two arrows like the sync symbol in your phone screen . And then the phone will still connected with the PC .
Your problem is easy to fix . Just try to enter download mode . And every thing will be fine .
Good Luck

You hardbricked your phone if it doesn't go into download mode.
But no panic there is always a solution;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836
Follow the guide above. (and I mean every step , however small they may seem)
ICS roms are now pre-rooted so you don't have to root.
Flash Xbsall's Ported custom ics (The one in the guide.)
Then install wkpark's recovery img. (Found here ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1978543)
Boot into recovery.
Install Darkroom ICS Int. (It's the best in my opinion) or whatever rom you wish.
They are all pre-rooted.
If you can't i'll guide you through it.
Hope i Helped.
Cheers!

Everything worked fine till step 9..But still not showing anything in Ports
Make sure the drivers are correctly installed. Especially omap4430...
Start the script that has been referred to in the guide.
Shut down the phone , remove the battery , plug usb cable and when you see "waiting for 5 seconds" plug in the battery. That should work.

That may mean you have a bad cable.
But if you restored it , it's probably sometimes bad or you changed it or you used the front panel which is a hub (divides bandwidth , slows flashing process) and it's bad for ya.
Since my real name is turkish and hard to spell i'll give one better ;
Call me John.
If you must know my real name is "Dogukan".
And yes i can help you with that although it's relatively easy now that you got a hold of it.
Thanks a lot Dogukan..
Are you into android development? Am a real noob in this and you helped me coming out of really difficult situation.
Now i want to root my phone and everytime its showing 'error no device find'
I'm not into android development... my skills lie in networking so there is not much i can do for android.
But those are common knowledge...
I bricked my phone several times to learn those.
You don't need to root. Follow wkpark's recovery installation and flash a custom rom (Darkroom int is great)

[Q] LG Optimus 3d Not Switching On

I have tried several things mentioned on this forum but to know avail. My LG Optimus 3d P920 isnt coming up after i flashed the rom. When i connect to the system on window 7, it shows omap under unknown driver and withing 2secs disappears again. using one of the methods mentioned here, i was able to install the omap driver but each time i connect the phone, it connects and then disconnect instantly. When i tried it on window xp, i got the same error. I can boot into recovery. The phone is not switching ON atall for me to even consider goin to recovery. Sometimes when am on window xp and i press the recovery button with the battery in (vol- plus Power +3d button) it connects and then instantly disconnects again. Please help with a step by step process as am stumped. Am sure i should be able to get it up. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks a bunch for your reply, the sad thing is both explanation arent clear enough. Am sorry to bother you but can i get like an idiot guide as both links especially the one with ics isnt really clear enough and the downgrade isnt helping either. downloaded their files yetdont know hw or what to do with em. Please help
Preferrably i will like a guide with downgrading. The links sent has no step by step method,it naturally assumes that one will know what to do with what file. Waiting for ur response.

I have tried the method you explained step by step bt i got stuckedd on step 13
"Step 13. Run Steps 3-9 again and you will see your phone being flashed from LG FlashTool.
It will be stopped at 26-30% because phone will turn off on its own BUT the next time you try to enter NORMAL DOWNLOAD MODE it will be available again."
When i do what step 12 says, instead of my LG flash tool flashin my fone, the screeen just stay stuck on the download mode with the korean message on it. Dont know how to move ahead. Thanks for your reply, please help me move past this level. In addition, instead of LGE mobile USB serial port, what i have is LGE CDMA USB serial port.

Thanks a bunch for your reply, the sad thing is both explanation arent clear enough. Am sorry to bother you but can i get like an idiot guide as both links especially the one with ics isnt really clear enough and the downgrade isnt helping either. downloaded their files yetdont know hw or what to do with em. Please help
Preferrably i will like a guide with downgrading. The links sent has no step by step method,it naturally assumes that one will know what to do with what file. Waiting for ur response.
Thanks again

Thanks a bunch, i have finally gotten a lil hang of it. The problem now is each time i flash with LG flash tool, once it gets to 82%, the part where the flashtool reads target resetting , my fone disconnects and the LG flashtool brings out this error error_wm_progress_msg and some others. I have tried this 3times now and the error remains the same. When i power the phone, it goes in to clockwod mode and when i try to mount usb, it doesnt do. Even when i try to restore the backup i have, it says md5 error. Waiting for your reply

That s mean your phone is successfully done flashing , with me it never come to 100% it always on 82% its finish, just reboot your phone and wait for it to start on , and you are good to go, now go to recovery and format, or wipe cache and data and reboot at first time it says that you don't have enough memory left just go to privacy and reset the phone and format everything . and i think everything will be good after that. good luck.
Thanks

The truth is your phone can not be break just with flashing, it will brick though, unless your hardware is damaged, then you are think to buy new phone.
well about the JellyBam, while you are on GB now, root your phone and install Rom manager flash Bernie's file and you're out of the rebooting. the Barnie's files is the key of JellyBam or other CM10 to work. good luck.

Fastboot: Stuck at "waiting for device"

Hi all,
today I wanted to install Andromadus in my Desire S. I have to do the whole thing and was looking forward to use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088385 for it. Sadly I am stuck at "waiting for device" when I am trying to get the TokenID via this tool.
So instead, I did the whole run as described on HTCdev. The following was done:
1. Installed Android SDK
2. Installed Google USB Driver
3. Installed HTCSync including HTC BMP USB Driver and HTC Driver Installer
4. Deinstalled (only!) HTC Sync
5. Activate USB Debugging (as suggested in some threads I have found)
6. Remove battery
7. Boot into Hboot
8. Select Fastboot
9. Connected Desire S via USB cabel (Fastboot USB in red visible)
10. Started cmd with adminstrator privileges
11. Executed "fastboot oem get_identifier_token"
12: *see Screenshot below*
I figure, that in the end I did exactly the same as hasoon2000's tool was and was stopped at the same point. I just wanted to make sure that it was not the tool that caused the troubles... I also tried different versions of fastboot.exe. The one provided by hasoon2000 and the one suggested on htcdev from the android-sdk_r13-windows.zip.
I do not have an idea how to go on. Does anyone know?
Just to add some specs:
- Desire S
- Android 4 RUU by HTC
- HBOOT 2.02.0002
- Windows 7 64Bit
Help anyone?
Cheers!
Today, I had some more time to play around with my problem... and was able to get the TokenID.
Solution: Tried different USB ports. This works at my USB 2.0 port, the other was a 3.0.
I will go on now, hopefully, everything will work out fine.
Everything worked out fine.
Thanks much for all the efforts people are doing to run such an awesome community!
I didn't see this post when it first went up, but problems using USB v3 ports are fairly common and fairly well-known.
Well, since I started with all the CustomROM stuff three day ago, I did not know. And even after 80 views of this thread nobody told me.
But now I know.
Another good thing about this: I pushed myself and tried everything by hand instead of using hasoon2000's tool. Thats great actually. Better than pressing some buttons.
No offence to hasoon2000's tool, that great, but sometimes duing such stuff on your own is more fun. Just like setting and building a Desktop PC on your own, istead of buying on in a store.
install PDAnet on your device .. follow procedure of installation carefully ( should be installed on both pc and phone ) and when it was installed .when u enter your bootloader your phone will be recognize by your pc and wait for device will gone .
the method tested by me and took me one month two years ago to find .. on my g nexus first try to unlock .

i replied becuase sure there will be ppl visiting this QA thread . man this works for me every time . and specially wit windows 8 .
pay attention that u should boot phone to android and then install PDA last version and turn the debugging mode . and then it will ask on your phone that always alow this computer use pda on phone and u says yes . in nexus when u open bootloader on phone , phone will be recognize by windows ( green check icon in system try appear ) showing windows know your device in boot loader screen . then u can proceed with ADB command . maybe bootloader of htc is a hard ass one like LG phone that is pain in ass to unlock .
then when i finished . u should boot in bootloader . maybe its not working with HTC but sure works with nexus devices . it pity didnt worked for u . hope it help ppl who read this later . u should get a nexus 5 man . its cheap and amazing

In case this is helpfull: I got the same issue on Windows 10 :
Desire S, HTC Sync Manage installed ("adb devices" is working), but not way to make work the "fastboot devices".
And I have only USB3.
And finaly I found one topic providing the solution for me: set a registry key...
Write the following in a .reg file:
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\usbflags\0BB40FF00100]
"SkipBOSDescriptorQuery"=hex:01,00,00,00
Launch regedit in administrator mode, import the reg file. Reboot, and that's all !!

So I installed PDA on windows 10 and on Phone apk.
No what ?
It makes connection between phone and computer. I already have this. If i type in ".\adb reboot bootloader" it will load bootloader. from there .\fastboot flash recovery recovery.img , it wont do anything Waiting for device.
PDa only works when you are in the Android OS,not Bootloader. It makes connection between the os's windows + Android.
WHat I am trying to do is install an update to my Asus Zenfone 3. I have TWRP it wont work with hat.I need stock rom. I have it. I cant install it,reason: waiting for device.
I did this many times, but its never easy,its always luck or God knows what.
What I do is, install stock recovery (not twrp). With stock recovery I install official updated ROM 8.01. and then get back TWRP. You need TWRP to flash SuperSu so you can have root.
I did this before with 7.0.1 .....now I cant get this stock recovery...waiting for device. It only listens to the first command,after it goes int Fastreovery or whatever it is...it wont go to the next command.

[Q] problem with my XL.need help please

okay.to start off,i've been following this guide here to unlock my bootloader(*i dint know about xda before,as i see xda guide are way easy-,- ). so everything went fine and yes my XL are "Bootloader unlock allowed". i have followed every single step on that site and at the last step where you need to put your unlock boot loader key,this is where i think i've may screwed it up. it doesn't show any successful note or anything so i thought it was done but then again i've checked my bootloader status and it still remain the same as "Bootloader unlock allowed" which it suppose to be "Bootloader unlock done".
Okay that wasn't the worst part. so as i have failed, i decide to google about this thing and found out this guide here. so i've followed it,right up until when i need to connect my phone through BLU. this PART where i go seriously INSANE. it just that nothing happen. i've managed to enter fastboot before with sony guide but this i just dont know whats wrong with it. so ive checked up about it's and notice its probably my driver problem. so i've found this here go through with it and yet failed again. -,-
OKAY THIS IS THE WORST PART. so as i've bumped at failure and decide to give up on this thing then i've notice that my phone cannot be charged when it is off. really bump about this. i know im a newbie and i know my place.but please anyone help me on this. i dont care about unlocking my bootloader anymore, i just want my normal phone back where i can charged it when its off.

Firstly I welcome you at xda forum. Keep your calm. It will be fixed.
Now then, firstly you need to install DRIVERS for your device.
Secondly you will need to FLASH FTF firmware using FLASHTOOL after downloading FTF.
Thirdly, you need to be patient as it will take a bit of time for you as you are new to all this.
Install drivers from :
HERE
Secondly download FTF firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2502970
Download flashtool :
http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
Next thing you need to do is FLASH FTF to your phone.
You must paste your FTF file in your flashtool/firmwares/HERE
Next you need to turn off your phone and then hold volume DOWN key and at the same time connect your phone via USB cable to the PC.
Next , open flashtool and install FTF using the RIGHT file you put in the folder. Don't install file from Xperia x8 or something that is already present.
Flash..
You are good to go! Good Luck

thanks a bunch thou for your help. but i think theres nothing i can do here.i've give up.plus the phone are working fine anyway,just that i cant flash anything thou. which is sucks but i'll manage it thou,somehow
Did you press vol down for flashmod and vol up for fastboot?
Open flashtool, don't click on any button just push vol down and push usb cable, then you will see if flashtool recognize your phone or will ask for drivers.

Open flashtool, don't click on any button just push vol down and push usb cable, then you will see if flashtool recognize your phone or will ask for drivers.

yes,i have done that 1000x times,and still nothing seems to work.i've even waited almost 1/2 an hour as i think it maybe take some time to load up but then again...nothing
i think the main problem is why my phone cannot be charged when it was off. as it does fine when i first got it? this is the real question because i think if your phone cant recognized the usb input while it was off then how the hell it gonna be discovered into flashmode or even flashboot. this is whats bugging me.
p.s,yes i have tried to flash with other computer,and still got the same result.
Try install adb driver with flastool drivers..you can find it under drivers folder via flashtool
Your bootloader is not unlocked and you can give it to service without problems.Maybe usb is broken. Use it till phone shut down, go to service and tell them that it don't want to charge.
