please help!!

my bluetooth is no longer working after I have successfully rooted my phone..

every help will be appreciated. :)
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 General] bogolino:
i retried to root the phone 19 times, carefully looking over the instructions...

now (with all the people saying that google play and bt aint working after succesfull rooting) i'm not so sure i really wanna root the phone...

can anyone provide some steps on to effectively reinstall android 4 ics on LG L5-E610v? i think (my opinion) that's the safest route...and the hardest to a crapware free phone...
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 General] dragnan:
Don't worry - it all works when rooted. ALWAYS make sure LGDrivers are installed when rooting.

If you want to reinstall your FW, get it from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=12 using the KDZ Updater from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1060121

I personally haven't used the KDZ Updater as it has not been necessary.

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 General] bogolino:
yeah...well....tried rooting...and failed...20 times...regarding the fw...now which should i get (see attachment)!? size is certainly different, yet the version of the phone for which is intended is the same.. :|

Looks the like L7 thread is alive and well with new roots for additional firmware versions. While the L5 is being completely ignored.

Root / Unroot Methods

BELOW IS UNTESTED / UNVERIFIED

Update :

I have never seen anyone bricked their devices on this small rooting/unrooting process but JUST DO NOT MAKE BACKUPS OR RESTORES!

DO AT YOUR OWN RISK

Rooting

1.Download cwm image for your phone from here

2.Place the downloaded CWM zip file on external sd card

3.Flash using stock recovery

4.Choose one root method from this link and try rooting

Well, it doesn't work for me...I press volume up+home button+power to get into recovery mode and a warning screen comes up with an image, saying to not connect any cable to the phone. And it stays that way, doesn't go any further.

Anyone tried this?

Congrats, your L5 finally is rooted!

We should start a vote for a new area for a thread on the top so people can find the tutorial easier and sorry I was up all night figuring out how to root it and then on top of that doing the video here it is I'm up now after only having 2 hours of sleep but thats besides the point. I'm going to post the video if anyone needs the actual .txt file steps I have them saved I'll post a download link for them in the YouTube description.

I tried posting the link to my YouTube and since I'm a supposing noob on this site lol I can't post it so just type in ragequitindustries in YouTube and subscribe it's there or type lg l5 root in google it pops up already as well

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 General] Angulardragon03:

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 General] igerup:
To move/install apps on the microSD card, you need to create two partitions on the card. MiniTool is a good software to use (Winblows only) . It's safest (and much faster) to do if you have a separate SD reader. Unlike what the creator of Link2SD says in the thread on this forum, it seems to work on more phones if the partition to be used for the apps/widgets is put at the beginning of the Sd card and not at the end. I cannot guarantee that it will work on any of the Optimus L series of phones. I gave up on it after a dozen attempts at getting it to work.

How to Install GoogleNow with Voice Search on Optimus L5

***Make Sure you have root access***

•	Download Es File Explorer from play store…( any other explorer would work but I recommend using Es)

•	Download this Zip file

•	Using your file explorer, Extract the content of the system folder in the Zip file and place it in the /system folder of your phone

•	Navigate to /system/app directory.Search for “GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk”. Delete or move it elsewhere as it won't be needed anymore.

•	Still in the /system/app directory, change the permission on these files (Velvet.apk, GoogleTTS.apk, VoiceSearchStud.apk) to

rw-r-r corresponding to the second snapshot

•	Now, goto /system/usr/srec and change the permission on these folders (config , en-US) to rwx-rx-rx corresponding to the last snapshot .

•	Reboot your device.You should see a “Android is upgrading ” dialouge box onReboot …..

•	Click on your GoogleSearchBox from your homescreen to setup Googlenow.

•	Enjoy

PS:- This zip file has been tested on the L5(E610, E615, E612) series only and it works flawlessly.Let me know if you have issues
