[Optimus One, P500, V General] vidgen13:
Chapter 1: The Foolishness of the User

Hi, I have the korean version of the optimus one(KU3700). It was on gingerbread(2.3.4) stock. I was trying to root it by downgrading it. I entered "adb reboot recovery" and I'm stuck. I tried to reflash it by going to emergency mode with the button combinations using the KDZ updater with this

"csmg. lgmobile. com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGKU3700/AKTFBK/KU370040_00/KU370040_00.kdz"

and it worked without any errors but when it when it came up it was still on recovery mode. Is there any way I can change the phone mode to the regular mode

Chapter 2: Journey to Salvation

For anyone who has this korean optimus one, after days of searching, I've found a web site that gave me hints to solve the problem. I just needed a different kdz file and I got it here:

h t t p://sirospace.tistory.com/category/Android%E2%97%86

popped it in google translate because I'm Filipino and can't read korean.

Downloaded the froyo kdz and flashed. I hope this can help other people stupid enough to play with their phones by typing random commands without knowing what it does, like me, LOL...so happy, now it's time to root

Chapter 3: False Hope

OK so I have successfully unbricked and rooted my KU3700, now The problem I have is installing a custom recovery on this phone, none of the images I try work.

Recovery images I have tried are as follows:

recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img

recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-2.2.1.img

recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-3.0.6.img

Every time it finishes and reboots, it gets stuck at the LG logo.

Chapter 4: Wisdom Within

Found the problem. The images above are for the P500.Even if the KU3700 hardware is similar to the P500, flashing firmwares made for the other model will result in errors. The same holds true for custom recoveries.

Chapter 5: The Plea to the Gods

I've contacted drellisdee and submitted the files needed for custom recovery creation for the KU3700.

Just waiting for the flash image now. Thank you everyone

Chapter 6: The Forgotten

It seems drellisdee is busy right now. I'm a windows user and knows nothing about programing. So if anybody can help I'm sure the KU3700 community would be greatful. I've attached the files I think are needed to make a custom recovery.

Chapter 7: Quest for the Custom Recovery

I got tired of waiting. So as a windows user with no experience in programming, I did a lot of copying and pasting, I managed to port clockwork mod using virtualbox following this website:

h t t p://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/10/porting-clockwork-recovery-to-new.html

So I have got a bootable and flashable custom recovery but nothing works yet. I still need to configure it according to the device.

I have uploaded the image and the build files. Please help me configure it and tell me what's wrong. I really don't know that I'm doing

PS: you can try flashing the custom recovery by doing "fastboot flash recovery /Path to/recovery.img and you can go to recovery by using android terminal and type "boot recovery". It will boot, but that's that LOL. Take out the battery to boot to normal mode.

Chapter 8: The Holy Grail

LOL, I found the answer again. I was so frustrated that I kept squishing the phone in recovery and found out that it was just a button configuration problem. A bit of research and I found out that I can toggle it by pressing volume up and volume down at the same time. WOOHOO!!! Custom Recovery at last

Chapter 9: Invasion of the ROMS

And here at last, the user is retired. But the adventure is far from over. It is foretold that the creation of the Custom Recovery will begin a new era. The key to open the gate has been found. So our hero will await the invasion of the ROMS<background music...> END
