Yes I did read the thread and everything is perfect now on my device. Thanks a lot for your reply :)

Edit: I have one question that I did not understand. Do I have to make an ext4 partition on external sdcard?
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] TheFolksy:
You just need to remove the MicroSD from your phone, put it in the PC card reader and partition it, I followed this guide.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] Arthalion:
Hi guys,

I soft bricked my L7,lol, and i was wondering what i could do to get it good again.

atm it shows LG first 5 sec,when i put it on, and then cyangonmod from the booting thingy, I have no idea what i must do
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] caiejay:
Just format system through cwm and install cm10 and gapps again
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] hackerxx:
Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik cahe and reinstall CM10 via CWM.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] caiejay:
Dont factory reset so you dont loose any apps just wipe system
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] Arthalion:

+1! Our official L7 thread!

EDIT: I follow the instructions but I can't downgrade... :(

EDIT 2: I downgrade it but still can't root...I AM GETTING NUTS!!!

EDIT 3: I don't know what's wrong with me...I have v10a, I've installed the latest usb drivers, I have debug mode, I run the script BUT NO ROOT!!! Either I am crazy or my phone refuses to root itself!!!

EDIT 4: This is what I get when I try to root...
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] PANCIO:
Hello, I have not tried it yet, but have you tried doing a hard reset before running the script ???
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] pkatsaras:
You mean factory reset? It's the only thing I didn't try...I am not so sure how this is going to work...
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] BGDonLINE:

EDIT: I know I am asking too much but in my opinion if you find some time, maybe you could find a way in order to unroot it. It would be completed then you know...In case someone has some trouble or want to send it to service. I am telling you that now cause from my experience, someone sooner or later will ask for it...
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] BGDonLINE:
Im rewriting flash tut to make it mire easy, there will be option to backup firmware before rooting and in case someone need unrooting than just flash orig firmware...

But there will be one click unroot script soon...

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] PANCIO:
sorry but I would like to ask you additional information ...

if I perform the root .... can I after update the firmware to the V10C_00 version :confused: or I risk to brick the device :confused: and the change remains :confused:

thanks in advance :rolleyes:
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] BGDonLINE:
You can`t brick device don`t worry :) if you flash V10C after rooting you will get new unrooted firmware :)

My phone now is root !!! Great work ! :D
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] inchewazu:
hello still here giving some facts and questions about this phone.

and yes i gets a little laggi so i do install SetCPU, now it is running better but still have some issues like battery drain. im going to try another home app to si if it works better.

now i have another question i've been trying to install a custom bootanimation with no success. you guys have something about this??

also if u have any questions ill try to help..!

Tanks for keeping the good work in this promising phone..!
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] pkatsaras:
I will share my phone configuration also in order to help others experiment with them and find the appropriate for their phone.

So, I use Trebuchet Launcher (as system app), SetCPU min-122 / max-1008 with conservative governor (for some reason when I use ondemand or interactive it falls into deep sleep and when I turn the screen on, it doesn't work at 1008 but at 122!). I also use Ram Manager Pro (google it) with Balance settings, Gemini Task killer for instant free Ram (from market) and very very important for me Autostart (google it) which gives you the possibility to choose what programs you want to start with the phone and manage the autostart of the programs...So, with these settings, I get about 3 days battery (about 62 hours) without wifi or 3g data or very very little usage and a lot of phones (I talk about one hour per day more or less), and with wifi on and 3g using it reasonable about 2 days battery (36-40 hours). And it's about a day with wifi/3g heavy usage (but lighter than the friend told few posts back). Also, I noticed battery drain during stand by when I had a live wallpaper...I hope I've helped!!!
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] deksiberu:
hi mas elzafir, how did you freeze the home.apk, LGKeyboard.apk, etc?

should i have root access first?

pls send me simple guidance if you dont mind :)

TIA
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] elzafir:
Yes you must have root access.

To freeze apps you can use apps such as Link2SD, ROM Toolbox Pro, Titanium Backup Pro, or AntTek App Manager, etc.

Make sure you have another keyboard and launcher installed before freezing system apps.

Abovw apps can also convert user apps to system apps (meaning app resides on /system/ , allowing faster access time).

I did not check whether the games are working; the missing binds annoys me to the verge of giving up. Please help.

Do you encounter this problem too? Or did I skip an important step along the way?

Note: I chose to ask here instead over at the app own thread because I think this is related to the L7.
