Hi,
Here's a dedicated help thread in your device section, you can ask for ideas here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192886
Always do a backup before flashing anything, for times like this. Putting a rom on your external SD if you can is probably the easiest way to get running.
For other ideas, ask in the thread.
Good luck!

Hi, guys I'm new to android phones...but I'd love to know more about them and about these custom roms...so the point is that I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2519448 and I don't know how to start ... I have a LG L5 E610 and the default ROM is a little slow...I need to mention that my phone isn't rooted...is brand new...so pls can you help me...I searched the Internet but I founded so many things and I'm kind of mix up...
Go to this subforum for your phone and read up on what's needed.

The procedure varies slightly from phone to phone but you first need to unlock your bootloader (the first unlock will wipe any data you have stored on the phone, make sure you backup first)
And most importantly don't be afraid to ask as many questions as you need, we were all noobs once
Also, once you got a custom recovery installed, make sure you do a full backup before experimenting, that way you always can get back to a working device no matter what happens.
Good luck and enjoy.

Hello all. I am a relatively new member to XDA and I have actually posted this issue on the thread to from which I downloaded the custom ROM I'm running. I am using and LG G2 D800 running [ROM][5.0][CM12][UNOFFICIAL][ALL-VARIANTS] CyanogenMod 12.0 For The LG G2, which I installed about a month ago. I originally rooted my phone using towelroot and installed TWRP custom recovery 2.7.0.0. I installed 3 or 4 other custom ROMS, using just my phone, that I honestly had no idea how to root using a computer. Since, then I have learned and acquired the tools I need to root from my computer, and after trying for quite some time, was able to find drivers for my phone that allowed my computer to recognized it.
There are 2 main problems that arose about a day after installing this ROM.
Firstly, after I had installed all of the pertinent files needed to flash the above ROM, I attempted to install the beta version of SU that the thread related to the above ROM said was necessary to keep root. Well, that version did not install correctly, though the ROM did install and is working about as well as an experimental version of a ROM can....
Once the ROM had been running for about a day or so, I realized how buggy it was and decided that it would be smart to go back to a more stable ROM as Lollipop was just around the corner(Or at least a stable CM12).
So, I went to go back into my TWRP custom recovery to do a wipe then install another ROM that I had backed up. When I attempted to do this, I realized the 2nd BIG PROBLEM, my phone had stopped recognizing my internal sd card, so I was unable to view any Backups I had previously saved. So, I started researching and found the the adb shell code to get my phone to recognize my sd card, but when I tried to use the command to do so, I was given the reply that su(part of the command) could not be found. So, I posted again, and was told,"you need to re-root." Well, that is good and well, but I have tried every method I can find to root my phone from my PC, but they are all for LG G2 D800 running some lesser version of android, never 5.0....
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and oh yeah, I was able to get the new Beta super SU file pushed onto my phone and saved in the remaining space it does recognize, but I couldn't actually install it to give me SU priveleges again. Basically, if I can re-root, I can get my SD card back, do a full wipe, then install another more stable ROM ASAP>
Thanks again, so so very much. Please, Please help me get this phone working. I'm feeling more and more like a fool everyday knowing Im paying for a phone I can barely even use....
Happy Holidays,
Thad

Basically you have to flash back a complete firmware.

doubtw over flashing firmware again! !!!!!!!
I had android 4.3 on my s3i9300 india , but the link you sent me shows to download 4.1 (which is an earlier version ) I just wanna know if downgrading from 4.3 to 4.1 gonna cause problems. ofcourse I don't have either of these right now
And before wiping everything off of my phone I had made a backup using twrp on ext sd card but it seems its not working . However in twrp folder I have this " jss15j.i9300 xwugml4"
Because ive read that one should have complete knowledge of his phone for example region code and all that could you please tell me what firmware I gotta download?

Hi guys,just few hours ago I discovered how noob I am on these android things.I don't know anything , the unique thing I was able to do was to root my phone but with some SuperSu fails... My phone is LG L9 P760.
I want a ROM ( possibly 4.4) because my current version ( 4.2) doesn't let me install games on my SD card so I tried my best to do so.I saw a lot of tutorials, and on all of them I failed because I'm a big noob.
I tried to restart my phone in recovery mode - Failed
Tried to unlock bootloader- Failed
I also tried also some other things I needed before installing the rom but all of them failed I think?
Can someone that's good help me install this ROM 4.4 on my phone and possibly help me when I encounter problems?Thanks in advance

Hey,ive searched high and low but to no avail and hopefully you geniuses wud be able to help me wich will greatly be appreciated, ive rooted my phone the hisense u971 its the 4gig version bought in south africa software version: w1002.6.05.01.za00 with kernel version 3.4.0 on android 4.3 so the phone is rooted with towelroot and confirmed with rootchecker, bt before i do anything further i wud like to backup my official rom before messing things up as ive read and seen how hard it is to get hold of an official rom for these phones. Ive installed cwm rom manager bt whenn i select backup rom the phone reboots into recovery with a few options namely reboot, wipe and something about adb and install from sd bt no rom backup option so if anyone can point me into the right direction as to how i can backup my room i would appreciate it. Thanx
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist.
It seems to me that you don't really have a custom recovery. You should have more options with CWM or TWRP.
Try asking in the forum below to get further help:

Good luck!
Thanx for your reply ill hv a look at the forum u suggested since the cwm i have installed has a TWRP option
