Don't be so pessimist!, L5 has a very bloated rom, that affects very bad the performance, i tried my friend's phone (htc explorer) with same SOC at 600mhz, and with a custom rom it worked beautifully.

L5 could be a good phone, we only need to find a solution for the locked bootloader.

Can we flash the open source kernel?
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 General] mrjabol61:
I think no - it contains system and kernel only. To unlock bl u need special code, probably generated using IMEI or something similar. HTC dev deliver tool to generate code and flash it to phone. I hope that I'm not wrong :D

No, can't oc CPU, cuz can't install cwm (with is used to install new kernel). The same way - can't install custom ROM.

Building custom ROM is the easiest thing to do ;)

Linaro is just a tool to compile kernels/roms, we have the source code and anyone can compile kernel/rom using that tool BUT the phone have locked bootloader so: no CWM (ClockworkMod Recovery), no custom kernels, no custom roms... unless someone finds another way to install it

Emergency mode doesn't work for a lot of people. I assume you want to reinstall/unbrick your phone. Follow the same steps as you were doing now, but instead of emergency mode use download mode.

Get in that mode by

* turning your phone off by removing the battery,

* put the battery back,

* press volume up and down at the same time, while plugging the usb cable in

* some message with a lg logo will appear on your screen and you can flash your KDZ

Hey guys thats are the instructions from 4pda forum ,the only problem is tha,we cant donwload he link yet...

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=353120&st=620#entry19586583

That done, say thank you for it payback

Thanks to him, now we have the ability to set custom kernel rekaveri and firmware.

All of the following do you do at your own risk, so think twice have it or not, and carefully enter all commands, typo can cost lives phone.

Actually, the instruction:

1. Need firmware with root. Alternatively, from my hat.

2. Downloading from Market Android Terminal Emulator ..

3. Download the attached file and throw it on the phone's internal memory (/ sdcard) emmc_appsboot.rar (139.13 KB) Number of downloads: 2

4. Run our program and enter the following commands in sequence, there are only three, after each press Enter:

Spoiler (+ / -)

su

dd if = / sdcard / emmc_appsboot.bin of = / dev/block/mmcblk0p5

reboot

5. All. After the last reboot the phone, and if you did everything correctly, the boot as if nothing had happened, but with cracked bootloader

E:just discovered how to make a account on 4pda forum,the only thing that stoped us was the capcha.To make the right capcha you guys only need to do this:the first number plus the last number,that appears on the capcha,like this:

38+68=106

You only need to put thw result as the anwser.after u do this you can donwload atached files from this site 4pda.ru.Btw i just donwload a kind of file that change the ext-sdcard into the intern memory,and it really works :)

I've now fully restored firmware (I'm now on v10B) and reapplied the boot loader unlock. It seems that there are no side effects at the moment. I think I previously had those because I either was using a newer firmware version (v10L), or because I had messed with many of the system files.

I'm going to try to install cwm now. I'll edit this post with the results

EDIT:

WHOO! Phone boots normall after installing the recovery.img urobbot linked to.

I tried it first on v10l firmware for e610, which resulted in random reboots. Then I used the unofficial firmware from the russian guy. I said I was using v10b, because he said he based it on v10b firmware. I later discovered that in russia they only sell e612 and e615(dual sim) versions of l5.

Tl;dr use v10b for e612 if you want the highest chance of avoiding random reboots

EDIT: sometimes the custom v10b is set to the russian language

Is there any problem in downloading and installing a firmware, let's say, from Germany, which has the V10G already?

Here on the brazilian v10b, I can use the interface and keyboard in english... so would there be any problems, maybe with the carrier signal?

And to get it unbranded I just need to install the firmware, or do I need to install the stock rom as well?

Hopefully the knowledgeable people will start giving this a little more attention soon.
