1-is there anyway to install app/games in External SD CARD.or move app/games to EXTERNAL sd CARD (DONT say app2sd or link2sd )ITS prohibited by samsung to install app/games or move them t0 sd card

2-is there any update stock firmware or CM10(cynogenmod 10) allows you to install or moves app/games to external sd card?(as i heard CM rom allow it?

3-is there anyway to stop system to automatic read your Sdcard or external sd card for PICS,MUSIC and Videos?can i give path to system to read only my allowed folders of pics,music and videos?

thanx

much appreciated
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mg35pt:
1) Not quite. Not yet. However, it may be possible to make the system treat the external SD card as internal memory. See the thread [MOD][ICS/JB/CM10]ExtSd2InternalSd v3.1|Increase your data storage|100% Working| and decide if you want to try that solution.

2) Don't know about CM. Not yet (that I know of) with stock fw.

3) Place a file named ".nomedia" in the directories you want to exclude.

When im listening to music and the phone is in silent or vibrate it still plays a notification through my headphones and mutes my music while. Its quite annoying, can I shut it off because I cant find it
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Drewman294:
What I did was:

-all settings>sound>sound profile

-chose sound

-then clicked volumes

-put notification sound all the way down

-then clicked sound profile again and chose vibrate only

Hope this helped.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zackhery:
TY!!!
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
Here is an alternative:

- download p920-1.zip and unpack to a temp directory.

- download usb_drv_windows.zip and install the driver. This is done when you see "omap4430" appear for a few seconds in device manager, when you attach phone to pc using usb without battery inserted.

- when driver is installed, install one of the recoveries attached to post #1 and unpack to the temp directory too, and finally run "runme.bat" from the temp directory you unpacked. and follow guideline here.

- when you see the commandline information "wait 5 seconds", you re-insert the battery.

- When "fastboot v0.5" shows in the optimus 3D display, you might need to install the fastboot driver(device: LG Cosmo) as well also located in the same zip above where OMAP4430 is found.

- If you do not get the "fastboot v0.5" in the phone display, something went wrong. and you might need to double check that your device manager in windows also shows the "OMAP4430 FastBoot USB device"
[LG Optimus 3D] lemach:
Never mind, wainting for a fix. Thanks
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
sorry guys, my guide works fine and so does the TWRP image and getting into it. But problem is, it seems original recovery does a trick to reset the flag "booting into recovery". So problem now is that it keeps booting into recovery and it cannot boot normally if you get TWRP started once.

I flashed back the original recovery for now and it works fine, when i sign that image with the new signature as well. but not worth much :(

booting original recovery once and the flag is reset and normal boot is possible.

Ill dig into this and report back and upload a working image, when i figured out the workaround this sad behaviour.
[LG Optimus 3D] adri_360:
First, thanks for the tutorial and for your work. I wanted to know if this tutorial could be installed boot.img compiled by myself.

[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
yes, we can make custom boot.img as well with the solution he made. scripts and solution is posted in same thread mentioned in step1. i used it to create the recovery.img, but same goes for boot.img.
[LG Optimus 3D] awi05:
I hope u can find the solution for this. For some people like me, after we flash the bin, fls, root the device and use twrp. It just wont boot to recovery. So i hope this would work. But thanks again to xbsall for bringing ics to our device. At least now im on ics. Is there anyway i can use original recovery? So u can make a backup and restore if i need to reflash the ics bin again?

Thanks
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
and it is working!!!!!

Finally got the continous reboot to recovery fixed!!!!

The images are bootable and do only reboot once into the recovery now.

the fix was to use some of the original binaries in the recovery so that mounts and binaries were started once.

So its all ok now.

I have also compiled a new CWM v6.0.1.5 from Recovery Builder clockworkmod, so its using latest release here, but it is not tested yet for full functionality.
[LG Optimus 3D] iodak:
This is nice. Thanks.
[LG Optimus 3D] lemach:
Thank you very much!! now it is late for me, but tomorrow i will follow your guide.
[LG Optimus 3D] TMProduct1onZ:
HELL YEAH! haha

HUGE THANKS, MAN!!! :victory: I was just about to flash the whole ROM again, just to make the TWRP work again :crying:

Im goin to start downloading and following the guide in a few min's.

I'll report as soon as im done with it :good:

-TMP

---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

ok.. im stuck @ 11.

"waiting for device"

it just wont start flashing. so i went to device manager and theres this new "connection" called LG Cosmo

and it says that the drivers for LG Cosmo are not installed..

what to do?

:confused:
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
im stuck on highways, but where, might sometime be a good question if you want to avoid it :)

you cannot get much help unless you give more, so that kinda ends here.

but it might just be that when the OMAP4430 driver is installed and it loads fastboot v0.5 menu, it could be that the "fastboot" driver also needs to be updated.

check your device manager and find any new android device, and refer to the drivers you got with the step1 package or from my post#2 (i believe it could be your LG Cosmo device)
[LG Optimus 3D] TMProduct1onZ:
hmm

lol ive told you where exactly i stuck :/

So...

ive installed the LG COSMO drivers and it flashed.

and here's what happend:

-rom manager installed, reboot recovery

-bootloop

-had to flash XBSA404 again :/

-tryed again, same (bootloop)

-gived up :(

so at the end i had to do exactly that what ive tryed to avoid lol :D

but one good thing happend tho': Dualclock is gone :good:

now ive installed p940 recovery/TWRP again and it works...

Dont know if its only me :confused:
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
you are not alone, its all those that do not understand the installation and wkpark's guide on using his tool. it is not that simple as just running an app. if drivers fail to install or you install the wrong driver, you never get fastboot opened, and if you never see fastboot menu on the phone when the tool starts and you insert battery as his guide says many things goes wrong.

but the instructions cannot be much more simple as they are, its 2 drivers its some steps in a command line to execute and thats pretty much it.
[LG Optimus 3D] awi05:
I will try it asap. I could go into fastboot mode last time so finger crossed. For those u have some problem going to fasboot mode try search the how to recover ur device to gb from xbsall. It works for me
[LG Optimus 3D] TMProduct1onZ:
Hmm idk... maybe i really did something wrong but im sure it was all ok :D i did see the fastboot menu and i executed everything.

However ill do a backup and then try again later today :)

[LG Optimus 3D] awi05:
Now its time to flash to new files run the 3 commands shown just below as shown.

fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin

fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin

fastboot flash boot files\boot.img

I could start fastboot with the grey logo and fastboot v0.5 on the top left of my device

when i type fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin

it says waiting for device

after i waited for 2-3 minutes the device just boot normally.

what did i do wrong?

thanks

edit:

i flashed all the command sucessfully

install rom manager

reboot into recovery and it boot loop

it only shows twrp logo and then reboot to lg logo

what should i do?
[LG Optimus 3D] GlossGhost:
HOW TO INSTALL RECOVERY IMAGE WITH SUCCESS

I just installed it and it works as it should.

Here's how to do it.

1. Boot into fastboot

2. After installing drivers for OMAP and LG Cosmo, start the shell.

3. Execute lines one by one:

fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin

then

fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin

and

fastboot flash boot files\boot.img

EXECUTING THEM ALL WILL LEAD IN A BOOTLOOP, DONT WORRY ITS FINE

4. Boot into fastboot and flash them again.

fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin

then

fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin

and

fastboot flash boot files\boot.img

5. Flash recovery image.

fastboot flash recovery files\cwm.img

or

fastboot flash recovery files\twrp.img

After boot, install ROM Manager and reboot into recovery.

If you still have problems, go back and do everything right.
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
thanks, hope your assistance above will help those still failing, because when it works, its actually rather nice to have working.

i will also try to improve the documentation executing the lines now.
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
try and flash all the "fastboot" files as written once more, and maybe for testing purposes, try the cwm.img instead of twrp image. you can also switch to twrp when you see you got it working. i do not flash all files switching, only cwm or twrp images needs to be flashed.

When the bootloader is updated, we can actually flash boot and recovery images from a shell prompt now. as long as the image is with signature. but fastboot will just be a brick recovery step when you first got it working.
[LG Optimus 3D] GlossGhost:
Okay I edited the guide based on what you say.

I didn't know the first flash breaks the recovery step.

What do you think?

Is it all right?
[LG Optimus 3D] iodak:
I think you should mention that driver is only for 32 bit windows.
[LG Optimus 3D] lemach:
I have installed it on w7 64 bits and no problems. also i have installed rom manager and i can restart into recovery through rom manager o through app like quickboot.

Thanks again Dexter_nlb and also thanks to wkpark!!
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
i got 64bit windows7 here, so that cannot be true.
[LG Optimus 3D] TMProduct1onZ:
I tryed again and it works!

Hehehe :D thanks!

Wow am i glad to see you on this side of xda! I remember following your guides on my first android phone, xt720!

Looking forward to trying this! Thanks dex! :good:!!
[LG Optimus 3D] rezzsha:
okay so i followed the guide, and it keeps rebooting into recovery :s
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
this can be due to many things you did wrong, but one thing if this is NOT a p920, that is why.
[LG Optimus 3D] awi05:
tried it again and no suceess.

it still bootloop.

so i finally decided to flash ics all over again.

1. flash bin

2. flash baseband

3. root

4. twrp

i dont know if this help but i just did a clean install and it worked.

in the past each and every time i reflash from 0 after root i always install busybox first and titanium backup. i wonder this is what it makes the twrp did not work?

today after root without installing busybox i just install the p940 recovery and it worked.

after that i tried your method again and it bootloop again. so i flash from 0 again and twrp worked. so i guess i'll stay on this one at the moment.

time to go to sleep. its 3:00 am now ^_^

thanks again for your work dexter.
[LG Optimus 3D] iodak:
Yes I am sorry I had old version of driver. Sorry again.
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
as long as you get to the final result having a real recovery to use, it is all fine, we try,try again, and we succeed :)
[LG Optimus 3D] defcomg:
In the Case of a bootloop recovery can still be triggered via adb reboot recovery Right?
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
yes, this is a real recovery partition install.

if the camera + vol-down worked, it would be a solution too :)
[LG Optimus 3D] defcomg:
Wonder why the key combo don't work.
[LG Optimus 3D] Pesach85:
In what mmcblk partition should these imgs be flashed?

Will not be the same to flash it through CMW or TWRP?
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
sorry,

i can confirm holding camera button + VOL-UP and pressing power-button to turn-on mobile does activate recovery without usb cable attached to pc :) , so we are safe, in ANY situation :)

PS: that means ROM Manager or other tools actually is no longer needed, i updated post #1 as well.
[LG Optimus 3D] defcomg:
Thanks. :good::good:
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
you can only do this in future releases, as part of the steps write a new x-loader+u-boot which can only be done from fastboot.

and the cwm and twrp images are still with a signature validation, so any new images flashed from recovery, will still need a signature matching or boot will fail.

wkPark has not released any hack for ICS yet with unsigned bootloader. but maybe that comes soon.
[LG Optimus 3D] lemach:
Works!! Thanks a lot!
[LG Optimus 3D] Pesach85:
Worked here too!

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 3D] rezzsha:
hmm I have a p920, but it mightve been because i copied and pasted insted of typying , also would it make a difference if i didnt remove the temporary recovery. im guessing that s it .Might try from fresh and see how it is.

Anywho thanks for the permanent recovery solution :D

EDIT: well after a fresh install, it worked :D:D:D thanks buddy

im guessing you should put a 'do not copy/paste" next to the step which you execute , even though i know you have it in the notes section.
[LG Optimus 3D] speedyranger:
i still try to install but i'm stuck on the step 12/13.

i thing everything is ok.

i install the drivers of LG cosmo.

after all i see on the phone fastboot v0.5 and logo lg grey...

:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

now i found!!!!

i make a big mistake to commands!

but now works!!!

volUP + 3D + power------>recovery

thx so much!!!!:good:
[LG Optimus 3D] rezzsha:
also on another thing, if you are restoring an old restore file, dont restore boot, otherwise it will keep restarting

OKAY so i realised my problem ,whenever i install cwm app it goes into a reboot fit :(
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
thanks, i will put a note in the top on that one

i believe i already did several times at least once before as well :)

"Now its time to flash to new files run the 3 commands (one by one, do not try to copy/paste all 3 lines) shown just below as shown."
[LG Optimus 3D] :
It works! I'm using TWRP now.

Thanks @Dexter_nlb.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Can I flash a GB ROM? I'm afraid I might get stuck on a bootloop.

2. I tried flashing a .fls file but the baseband kept unchanged. Then after a few reboots it changed to the flashed baseband. Is it because of this recovery or was I doing something stupid?
[LG Optimus 3D] Pesach85:
Hi again!

:)

Is actually possible to flash system.img or any other img system files through the fastboot flash method?

I mean, if here:

execute: fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin
execute: fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin
execute: fastboot flash boot files\boot.img

i'd do:

execute: fastboot flash system files\system.img

will the flash work fine?
[LG Optimus 3D] awi05:
I want to try it again.

Questions:

1. If i have a bootloop other than install ics rom all over again is there any other way?

2. Should we install the lg cosmo driver? I did not install the lg cosmo driver because my fastboot works fine and i am able to type the command and flash it one by one. But i get the bootloop result. Ater try to reflash again the se ond time it still got bootloop.

3. Do we have to remove the recovery we are using first? Twrp (p940 recovery)?

Thanks
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
1. if you install ics rom original with the normal steps to flash it, you get no bootloop

2. you need to make sure the fastboot driver, actually is working and you see "OK" after sending and flashing each file. just to make sure, update existing LG Cosmo with fastboot driver supplied and you should be safe. (see here with picture showing progress)

3. you do not need to remove it initially, since its only activated with "VOL-Down" and real recovery uses 3Dbutton+VOL-UP. but yes, it makes no sense to keep heaving, as it actually delays bootup by a few seconds :) (if you care)

yes, "fastboot flash system files\system.img" will work fine. If the system.img is larger than the system partition, it will fail anyways so you are safe. You cannot use this with much, as GB is not compatible. Gingerbread partition table is very different.

working u need to hold power+vol up+3D for like 2 seconds after u see lg logo
[LG Optimus 3D] Rodj:
Bricked?

Hi guys,

I was in the process of putting the 4.0.4 ROM on my newly bought Optimus 3D.

Exactly following the steps as described in the OP has resulted my phone into not being able to boot. It shows the LG logo for a second and shuts off immediatly. Any idea's on how to resolve this? Did I just brick my phone? :rolleyes:
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
if you did not put the 4.x rom on your device first you did something wrong here.

secondly if you did something wrong on the steps to follow you did something wrong since the logo bootloop is related to incorrect flashing and not a brick situation, just go back try the step after the 4.x flash and try,try again and see if you can do different
[LG Optimus 3D] Rodj:
I tried using LG Flash method to put back original ROM using method described in this thread. But no luck. The process finishes 100%, but upon starting up, the phone Flashes LG logo for a second or so, and goes back off. I can't find a thread with people who have a similar issue, so I'm left clueless!
[LG Optimus 3D] speedyranger:
You have only one way: back to GB and after return to ICS.

Return to GB with the resurrection method by xbsall;)

Inviato con Lg P920 powered by XBSALL
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
again this require a ICS flashed rom, which means you need to flash the xbsall original su760 port first. THEN you can install this on top to get recovery working.

you cannot use this or roll back to GB this way, you need the solution described in the post before mine here.
[LG Optimus 3D] Pesach85:
Looks the twrp and CMW are not fully working, can you give me the git i' ll try to recompile?
[LG Optimus 3D] Rodj:
What do you exactly mean by "git"?

I managed to recover to GB and update to ICS and flash baseband (with smartflash though, LG Flash Tool unsuccesfull). But as soon as I try to install the TWRP, the phone fudges up. The phone hangs in the "Fastboot 0.5" with LG Logo screen, and does nothing. And the cmd running the script closes. As soon as I unplug USB, the screen goes off. Upon restart, the phone shows LG Logo for a second, and shuts off again.

I must be missing something here.
[LG Optimus 3D] Dexter_nlb:
i just used twrp from the p940 release.

i compiled the cwm with init and fstab changes using the cwmbuilder website.

i know adb is not enabled in any of them but i believe something is not enabling usb here and the usb mass storage mounting is not enabled in the kernel, since i did not recompile a kernel.
[LG Optimus 3D] JiroPrinz8:
I've had the same issue before.

If you can still put it in download mode, flash via LGFlashTool but this time use the v21eboot as posted in xbsa's resurrection thread.
[LG Optimus 3D] Cav3:
thank you

thank you very much i was stuck at first with the first thread then i read about the p920-1 file i downloaded that and i modified the bat to just add the cwm without the menu so its a little faster for me and i prefer cwm on my device lol. thanks for this

I have installed the xsball ICS only. I was not able to find in anywhere if I have to root the phone first. Now I am flashing the ICS again.

Please inform what I am doing wrong all the others files were loaded except the twrp.
