RESTORE APPS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHB5-9zoqNU&feature=youtu.be
If you want to restore faster you need the permium version
or the second way to restore apps
RESTORE APPS
This method is faster than the free version
of Titanium Backup but there could be problems
like force closing apps or annoying stuff like this
1. Boot into recovery with Rom Manager or
shut down the phone and press volume down +
3d + power (sometimes a little bit tricky)
2. Go to backup and restore and select advanced
restore.
3. Select the backup with the apps you want to restore.
4. Select restore data.
5. Reboot
INSTALL NEW KERNEL/OVERCLOCKING
1. Download a Kernel from the Forum (Titan Kernel is great!!!)
2. Boot into reckovery
3. !!!Make a Backup!!!
4. Select install zip
5. Select the zip
6. Reboot
After that you can take a look on this:

problem restoring
Hi ive recently ran into problems with my O3d and i need to do a recovery on it. I had rom manager on it and i backed up everything before it went wrong but now all my apps and games and stuff has gone including rom manager!!! Ive also tried the volume down and power button but i cant seem to access the restore part of it only wipe data/factory reset. I know all my stuff is still on my memory card though which makes it the more frustrating lol. Is there anything that can help me with this or is it a case of I just have to start again??? Any help would be grateful. Cheers

You could install a new rom using kdz method then root it then install clockwork recovery then enter clockwork recovery and restore

Hello...
Nice guide you have. Overlaps with manbearpig's somewhat, but you have the video tutorials
For flashing CWM, I recommend using this instead. Prevents the common problem where ROM Manager shows LG Optimus 2x rather than Optimus 3D and the user flashes it anyway, bricking/bootlooping the phone.

You have only included installation of custom roms, You may add installation of stock roms by kdz method. first do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473781&highlight=kdz then http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287236 and get kdz from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=2

thanks for the posts I will add this tomorror or in a few hours because I am now online with my phone and it is to much to write

Nope tried that method and still the same??? I spoke to someone from lg and they said theres a method of doing it through my googlemail account but I'd have to send the handset off??? Any ideas?

so u r on a stock rom which is rooted and you dont seem to be able install cwm and by pressing volume down and power you are entering default android recovery...right
have you tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482713 for installing clockworkrecovery?

[ROOT] Guide For Rooting myPhone A818

The credit does not goes to me.
It goes to SuperGuko of symb.ph
You can say thanks to me anyways.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YR BLASTS OR WHATEVER HAPPEN
YOUR WARANTY AND BRAIN IS NOW VOID.
What is Rooting and its benefits? —its like jailbreaking but its your Android phone, unlocking the capabilities of your Android device with the apps and tweaks that requires root access to the Android system. Its not necessary but if time came and you realized that you need to root your phone, then it must be it.
What is CWM recovery? – cwm is short for clock work mod recovery. All Android phones have recovery mode already but clock work mode is better and you can do more with CWM, like installing patches, updates, and tweaks on your device.
Rooting myPhone A818
First, you must download these files:
SP Flash Tool — extract once downloaded. This is the app used for flashing an Android phone.
http://www.mediafire.com/?dridzg1tdokf2up
MT65x3 USB VCOM drivers –extract then install. We need these drivers so that the phone will be read by the SP Flash Tool once connected to the PC.
http://www.mediafire.com/?9wi60a5dtst2aw6
CWM based Recovery –this is the working CWM recovery (recovery.img) for the myPhone A818
http://www.mediafire.com/?jt482l02ls8kl4h
MT6573_Android_scatter.txt –we need this scatter text file.
http://www.mediafire.com/view/?tkizuj24vntmt9r
Root A818 –update file for rooting the A818.
http://www.mediafire.com/?kmbkj29lccsaili
Steps
Once the drivers are properly installed and the SP Flash Tool is already extracted and accessible, turn off your myPhone A818 and remove its battery.
Run SP Flash Tool.
Click the Scatter-loading button and navigate to the downloaded MT6573_Android_scatter.txt file.
Be sure that the RECOVERY is the only one selected, click on it and browse on the downloaded recoveryNonTouch.img file.
Click the Download button and just ignore the warnings.
Attach the battery again and connect the phone, be sure not to turn it on yet.
Wait for the process to complete. You will see a Green Circle with a label saying download okay. Normally, this process doesnt takes too much time and not more than 5 minutes as you were just writing a small-size recovery.img file.
How to enter into CWM recovery
Be sure that your phone is turned off.
Press Volume up + Volume down and power button until a set of choices appears then just press the up button to enter recovery.
With the CWM recovery, you can easily make a full back-up of your phone. This is as well called as Nandroid back-up. Just be sure you have enough storage on your SD card. Just select Select backup and restore, then choose back up and wait for it to finish.
How to root myPhone A818
Copy the RootA818.zip file on your SD card.
Enter CWM recovery.
Select install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard, then locate RootA818.zip.
Select Reboot system now.
To know verify if the rooting process is a success, look for the SuperUser app in your drawer, or just check root access with the Root Checker app from the PlayStore.
Enjoy!

Alcatel Flash or 6042D Stock ROM, ROOTING, CWM RECOVERY

I am not a android guy but faced lot of challenge in finding the Stock ROM for Alcatel Flash or TCL 6042D or Alcatel 6042D. Found one here but having few corrupted files due to which "settings" "message" and few others didn't worked well and in fact frequent crash. Fortunately I had another 6042D to my relative and I took CWM backup of that device and would like to share with you.
Please follow the following steps and don't do otherwise, as only these settings worked for me, other settings may not work. Please Note That these steps are applicable provided that required driver for that device is installed properly.
STEP-A: Download these three files. Please add https: to all links.
1. Stock Recovery and Scatter File package.
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FSkI0UUMxNDc4WEk/view?usp=sharing
2. SP Flash Tool Software
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FRjV2dF81c1VLY1E/view?usp=sharing
3. CWM Backup package
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380Fb0NoWTNTLWhtQjA/view?usp=sharing
4. Extract the three files
STEP-B: Recovery Install. No root required
1. Go to sp flash tool folder and run it.
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FMU1NUlFZQzFVNWc/view?usp=sharing
2. Then load scatter for the device from "SPtool_stock_recovery_scatter_OT6042D" folder.
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FRFZPRElfdDAwR0E/view?usp=sharing
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FWmhXZmlDLU5oQzQ/view?usp=sharing
3. If scatter file loaded successfully then you will see "boot" and "recovery" is marked. You must unmark or deselect the boot file. Then double click the recovery file to choose a recovery. Do not choose the recovery from "SPtool_stock_recovery_scatter_OT6042D" folder.. Choose the recovery from "\clockworkmod\backup\2015-10-16.14.26.59\recovey.img". Then press download button.
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FUmtsMHI2WTRMakU/view?usp=sharing
//drive.google.com/file/d/0B-BBKAO9380FQzJLNjB2cDNiQ2M/view?usp=sharing
4. Connect your phone to Computer USB. Then turn the Phone completely OFF. Then after few seconds you will see the SP flash tool is working and sending file. File transfer rate and status will be shown in status bar.
5. If things are ok then you will see a Green Circle as "OK" symbol. And you are done with installing CWM recovery. Now turn the Phone ON.
STEP-C: Installing Stock ROM
1. Copy the extracted "clockworkmod" folder to the root directory of microSD card.
2. Turn OFF the Phone and wait for vibration. After vibration press "UP VOLUME + DOWN VOLUME + POWER" key same time and wait to see Alcatel logo. Release the buttons.
3. You should see the CWM recovery screen. Now follow the steps
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
Goto Advance then wipe dalvic cache and go back
backup or restore
restore
Choose the file from "clockworkmod\backup\2015-10-16.14.26.59"
chose yes in confirmation screen
Wait to see "restore from SD card complete"
4. reboot system now. First boot will take some time . Have patience.
Links are from Google drive. Sometimes google does not allow download of zip files. Let me know if it happens.
Thanks and Jajakallahu Khairan
