I found a way to bluescreen my pc

Start the device with usb plugged in, the take out the battery while usb is still in and phone is starting, now you will get a nice screen on the phone, pull out usb after 2 secs

25 Euros from me and my new 4X!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Eho419:
I will donate 20£

I will gladly donate 20£ for unlocking the bootloader Via pay pal. If pounds aren't accepted for some reason (I haven't seen them here) I can pay in $( whatever the exchange rate is) good luck for any Dev who working on this.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
no no, 2 values are enough :D i googled it, 20gbp = 25eur

@down yeah, You can do it if u want :)

Could someone organise the post on xda blog? i don't know who to contact about it.. We would find some developers then
[LG Optimus 4X HD] razerblade17:
maybe we can PM some of dev,,i think some off them dont know about this
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dfreake:
how about adam he unlock bootloader on s3 verizon too by strip out the hardware and somehow connected to linux
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Eho419:
Ok, so 25€ it is then.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
yeah, good idea. Assuming that he could make impossible, maybe we could collect all the money and donate him, he could buy the 4x then and unlock it.

@edit please help me to find some interested devs.. i won't do all of things, i'm not a superhuman lol

@2nd edit woof, we've 400 euros
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dfreake:
but anyone know how to contact him..i once contact him but no reply
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mexx0312:
I would donate 10,-€.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] muellersmattes:
I don't think we should donate to one person before seeing an unlock. Not unless we see some progress (e.g. from friend's phone). In fact, 4X is quite cheap now (~350€ here in Germany), so someone looking for the bounty might as well buy it himself before.

Btw, i'd donate another 15€ if we see some development.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Bud Cord:
Join in too!

For the complete unlocking the bootloader, I donate 20€.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] plasticarmyman:
I will donate after i see the unlocked bootloader, i've paid some money into bounties before that dissapeared....so sorry, but i'm a little wary
[LG Optimus 4X HD] retariatus:
I'll donate as well but... I need to see some proof.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] bobby38:
Will donate 10€ once the bootloader is fully and safely unlocked
[LG Optimus 4X HD] stigb1974:
No one has actually paid yet, as far as I know, anyways. We have just made a promise to pay the one who is able to find a way to unlock the bootloader. :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:

please search for devs!

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
if you check the posts by the user, not a single one indicate tools or anything related to this, it might just be a signature which he feels are appropiate for nexus4 forums.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] naset:
maybe you all shoukd contact him segv11
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
if the trick works on nexus, maybe we could do the same compare of MSC partition (which is /dev/block/mmcblk0p5) from a developer model, if that user with a developer model could dump the partition from shell to a file ie. ( cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 >/mnt/sdcard/MSC ) and attach the MSC as a zip here and we compare ?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
@naset So why don't u do it :D
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:

try out this command in a shell window or using adb:

then copy the file MSC from internal sdcard location to you pc and zip it and attach to this forum, it might help, but im not sure.

AdamOutler has a skill,,but can he unlock this phone?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] josip-k:
Im pretty shure he can.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] razerblade17:
maybe we need to ask him
[LG Optimus 4X HD] muellersmattes:
Maybe he can, but he doesn't have unlimited time either. I suppose reas0n asked him too. Let's just see if kholk reports some progress when he gets the phone back, shouldn't take that long now.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
let's just wait till kholk gets his phone after fixing, i think marsgod is a skilled guy btw, just look how much he did without the phone
[LG Optimus 4X HD] razerblade17:
i dont know why kholk send the phone for warranty..if he has skill and knowledge, maybe he can fix and no need to claim for warranty..:confused:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
this was November 26. 2012 ,

maybe his watch is broken too ? :confused:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] :
It is very strange, kholk got a phone from the petition and after few days was broken..then his send the phone for warranty to repair and now his wait that the phone goes back?

please don't understand me wrong, but seems that kholk got in the past other money from other ppl for unlock bootloaders too, but his has never completed (or just beginning?) that work.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] muellersmattes:
Many people here stated that LG Italy is slow in terms of repair service. And I suppose he broke it while trying to flash some different bootloader and that hard-bricked it so he couldn't recover with kdz. As said, LG's service here in germany is very fast (I sent my phone away on Dec 28th and received it back on Jan 4th, which is three working days). But it seems to be different in other countries. Would have been better if we had a german dev ;), but I think kholk will resume the work when he gets it back. And I have seen enough devs who reported their progress and were bombed with ETA questions and stuff.

Twitter post with "Bricked" is from Dec 11th. Last twitter post is from Dec 29th were he wrote that he called LG and they still didn't ship it back. Supposed he sent it away on 12th that's 15 working days until today. If Italian service is really that poor it's not that long after all.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
question is just, how do you brick it flashing a new bootloader, when no one even figured out how to create new KDZ tools. the guy just had it for days, and you seem to believe he made miracles in just a few days being able to brick it, but still not being aware on how to restore? and all the guesswork is no good? wouldnt it be just a little bit better, if it was explained exactly how do you brick a o4x, so no one mirror his unlucky incident if such exists?

No tweet, no xda activity , no responses to mails and no updates to users that donated, he got the will to ignore, but why? a simple "no updates" could probably be more appreciated now and then, more than silence all the way.

As seen in the past, i guess kholk took on too much of a challenge and do not know how to tell people he failed.

its sadly very similar to DrewGaren's behaviour in the Flyer section, when he needed the money he begged for more, to be sent to his donation account even after he was about to order the device and when he finally came back saying it was received. he released someone elses work and called it his :p DrewGaren is a very similar case, but he is still very active on GSIII and no one there believe he could scam money out of them. Sadly XDA moderators did not act on such behaviour and he is still free on xda and ignoring all flyer users pretty much like kholk do now.

its seems too easy to skip one section going to another and tell them, i bring you gold and everybody seems blinded by gold and visions.

But seen from a positive point of view,

as i said previously, he did not really commit to breaking the bootloader RSA key. he just said he would take the challenge without hesitation, since no one knew anything about how hard it could be. and secondly he still got all the time in the world to do it. except his behaviour states something else :(
[LG Optimus 4X HD] razerblade17:
i hope anyone can contact kholk...although i know it is almost impossible :p
[LG Optimus 4X HD] adverserath:

[LG Optimus 4X HD] hutjeflut:
maby a lesson for the next time to only pay up after the act is done instead of paying in advance.

id certainly pay a few bucks to see the device unlocked (even tho i dont have it yet) but i wont ever pay before the deed is done as that tends to cost you money with no results.

paying after the deed is done also encourages more then just 1 person to try and find a leak that helps unlock the phone :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Afro:
And I think paying the developer who has unlocked the bootloader will still feel better then paying the developer maybe just for the try to unlock the bootloader!

And it would be a great chance for other developers, but for now, they'll think that they won't get anything useful without respect maybe...

[LG Optimus 4X HD] The_0ne:
kholk has not signed a contract. So you can't blame him.

The past cannot be changed. We have to look forward.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
you learn by your mistakes normally and you have to it once to improve and do it better next time. so looking forward, we still got a community and i still got my o4x for some time, so i can try and crack my personal gsm goal here :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Marcb:
You guys should have made a contract... saying that the device is not his to keep and that he should return it whenever you guys wanted to... then you can give to someone else...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] josip-k:
Omg guys. You should totally collect money again and send it to adam. You would have bootloader unlocked within days!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] vrmanzacky:
hahaa are you sure he can unlock bootloader? learn by past, not too easy to believe who says "can unlock bootloader", if he can unlock it, he can buy for him self, and when he can unlock it, he may open donation who want to know how to unlock bootloader, and then he can get money from it
[LG Optimus 4X HD] josip-k:
The galaxy note 2 verizon users have collected money and sent it to adam. He unlocked verison. He even accodentaly flashed sgs3 firmware,and recovered it alone within 20 hours. I pretty much think this guy can do anything.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Marcb:
If you can, contact him and see if he wants the job...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] vrmanzacky:
agree, if u can contact and he wants the job, i will donate for him :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Norax:
Guys, what I think happened is that kholk went on vacations in December. Probably when the device didn't already return. So he returns from his vacation, and take the phone, but he did nothing so far. So he post just an "I should post more often" and goes. This would explain such a delay, thinking he's a "good guy".

I also think that maybe his way of working was related to do some hard software changes and brick the phone so when he tried to recover he would unlock the bootloader or something like that. In the way, he couldn't restore it, so he had to send it to LG.

He's probably again working on it, but since this is not his daily use phone, he's probably lazy with the tests and he's doing something else.

Finally, I think that all of us should write him a PM requesting for a log of done work, and to return the phone if he's done. If he says that he didn't work so hard, return some money and the device. And if he says he worked on and tried all he knows and couldn't do anything, take the money but return the phone.

He's not going to use the phone, so return it to let someone else work on it. Else he would probably sell the phone...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] razerblade17:
i dont care if kholk take 100year or cant unlock, but he should respect us,,,he only active when he need donation to buy this phone, now,,he almost not exist in this thread :silly:

How do you know if you are on a European Open?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Manholas:
valid only for U.E.

I submit that I have little knowledge. How do they unlock only for equipment in Europe, "But it is valid only for U.E. Open LGP880 not other operator's product.". The release has nothing to do with the equipment but with where it is operating. It has nothing to do with the software you have.

Tell me if I'm right.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] pgergo:
If you still have the box of the device (you should, it/s quite neat), than you'll find a 3 character long code above the color code. If it's NEU, you have a Europe Open SW. If it's not, you still can flash EO. Using a PC. Less convenient than OTA. And that's it. So, there's no real difference.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] profyler:
I dont understand, judjing LGs email, only people who bought a Euro_open device will have the unlocked bootloader? Thats a little odd, isnt it?

I mean, sure you can flash another KDZ with euro_open, but i dont undertand this restriction enough...

good news imo
[LG Optimus 4X HD] maberib:
Are there good instructions anywhere for flashing the European version?

And if someone's in the mood to explain: Why can one flash this different firmware, but not others?

With those steps one can flash *any* LG firmware for the 4xHD, from whatever country.

And btw: Steps 5 & 6 are not necessary. Just enable usb-debugging (developers options), and choose LG software. No need for removing batteries and holding buttons.

Hi I read a lot of pages in this thread but Im a little dumb and you guys seem like a nice and friendly community so I wanted to ask this: Will LG unlock the bootloader on the LG 4X HD with the new JB update? beacuse I didn't understand the part of only Euro-open devices will get it, also I'm planning to buy the international factory unlocked version of this phone on amazon so does that include include my version? or do I have to wait until a dev has unlocked the bootloader?

Thanks and sorry for my bad english.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ronhoover88:
If LG keep up their promise, no matter where they release JB with unlocked bootloader you can flash it using kdz update tool. So don't worry if you get a P880.

Hope LG keep up their word:thumbup:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ribado09:
Thanks for the very early response! and sorry but I didn't understand you very well Im Venezuelan and english its not my native language so LG will unlock the bootloader? can you post a link with this info? if not its ok I just want to be sure that LG will unlock the bootloader of the phone because the JB update it's not what Im concerned of it's the locked bootloader.
