No one could explain it better, i've just done all that but i have one problem, i have street fighters installed and the game data-folder was on the sd card (root of external sd) now i have a backup of the game data and i want to transfer it to the second partition i created, but this one is no where to find, how can i browse into this 2nd partition and move games data there

i can always download this data again (1.74 GB) but isn't there another way?

---------- Post added at 03:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

Did you change USB mode into LG mode? (or LG PC Suite mode)?

if yes then try restarting both your pc and phone.

i suffered to root mine.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] AngryWolf80:
You can add to forum topic P760 - this device very close to P765, but for Europe.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] hamdimo:
Link2SD isn't doing the right job on my phone, i did everything right, and linked all apps to the second partition, and set it to auto link any new installed apps, now i've just downloaded the maps for NAVIGON (app for gps navigation) and everythig was placed on internal memory!!

what's the point of auto-link? is it only for apps, not for apps LARGE data like games?

tried "move to sd card" and that comes with an error, and shows a path for the .apk location. and that i have no sufficient storage left.

help me out please.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] AngryWolf80:
If your phone rooted, then use "bind directory" for huge directories. As it works: in internal memory you create empty dir, on external - directory with data. Then you bind external directory to internal. And that's all. When app goes to directory on internal memory, actually it goes to external sd card.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] hamdimo:
Wel i didn't know link2sd works only with .apks

so i'll give directory bind a try, i've used this app before on my tablet and the results weren't that good either, i hope it works fine on the L9
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] paulo.braga:
Yes, i did everything.

Try 4 or 5 cables, 3 diferents computer, 1 desktop and 2 laptops runing windows 7 and nothing.

I can see the phone, internal and external memory, but can´t conect for root
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] AngryWolf80:
You must enable USB Debugging in phone settings...
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] paulo.braga:
Like this?

Yes, but nothing.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] cmahendra:
Sorry but I dont see in any thread anyone asking you to run LG PC Suite. Uninstall it, Reboot system and Try Again. Absolutely not required. Its really strange, seems you have not read the instructions carefully. :cyclops:

Some people might have told you to install LG PC Suite because it installs the LG Android United Driver in background, which is only 10mb file and contains everything you want to ROOT. :p

You can download latest LG Android United Mobile Driver here (In Download Section, select Software Update & Drivers and download USB Driver for Windows. This is common DRIVER for all LG Android SmartPhones (not only P765) and will detect all items of your phone in all modes (PTP, MTP, Charge, LG Software, etc. mode) Latest version is 3.8.1.

NOTE: This driver link will never expire like all other LG direct links were expiring these days and you always get latest driver. :)

NO NO, nevp, the CWM Installation thread given by you is for Prada and did not work directly for me, GAVE SOFT-BRICK, GOT BOOTLOOPS with message "SECURITY ERROR" on reboot. Had to reflash and UNBRICK it. Please no one try this as it is. artas182x have mentioned that he will post manual method of CWM install. Lets wait.

May be he did not try on L9.

Please share...
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] AngryWolf80:
Thread about Parada CWM was saying what LG has leaked some of RSA key and from now they have normal SIGNED recovery, without "Security Error" and so... From now this method for our phones not works.

But before, they used "2ndinit method" for load CWM... I installed file P940RecoveryInstaller.apk for my phone and CWM now works (at least backup). And for it I wrote about cwm.tar and configuration files from our phone.

If someone has interest to try - I've attached .apk file. With one warning: there is no method to uninstall this CWM except KDZ reflash...

When I have some free time, I want to try build CWM for our phone and repack this .apk
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] csrow:
have you tried the 'restore' ?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] AngryWolf80:
Nope, it's a little scary :eek:
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] cmahendra:
Yesterday night I tried this and soft-bricked phone. Got same "Security Error" screen of death. Then even after Reflashing KDZ, phone was not unbricked, I got GREEN DEAD ANDROID with Exclamation mark.

After banging head on it for few hours I found an easy way to UNBRICK, which I added in my FAQ section of P765 GUIDEBOOK. Please see it and feedback.

Then after unbricking Re-Rooted and installed all apps manually, as no easy whole backup method is available. Thank GOD and "ME" as I always manually back up all my SMS, CALL LOGS, Apps, etc. before doing any such mis-adventures. :laugh:

Sometimes I ask myself, Am I an idiot doing all this misadventures on just 3/4 days old BRAND NEW PRETTY PACK device, even after being a noob? Lolz. Anyways XDA flashing is like Addiction to me since last 3 years on various devices. :laugh:

I am waiting for manual CWM installation method by artas182x to make CWM work, at least on External Memory. According to him Internal memory is not yet working. Fingers crossed.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] csrow:
Thanks for being a guinea pig and trying the 'restore'. As expected, the difference in memory location of Prada and L9 makes the CWM for Prada unusable for us.

One good news from the latest Prada recovery is that the developer was able to bypass the locked loader using the unintendedly released key from LG. Hopefully, the same method could be used to bypass the L9 loader in creation of a recovery.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artas182x:
Recovery installer

Ok, i uploaded recovery, I tell you some instructions and information

1. Bugs:

-We can't use internal sdcard partition for now (but /data partition works normal)

2. How to install this:

3. Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?ws7qmn7m71wh34w

4. Comments: please all questions and opinions post there.

5. This recovery is ONLY for users with experience.

Some about custom roms/kernels:

For now we can't load custom kernels by flashing boot.img because we will get brick, but we can use 2nd-init (this same method recovery works on our device) to load boot.tar (custom ramdisk). This way we can port cyangoenmod from prada to l9. We have complete 2nd-init script with works with our l9 (included in our recovery). 2nd-init uses many devices with locked bootloader. How 2nd-init works? Read there: http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works. The easiest way to get working cm9 is porting it from prada (only cm-9-20121126-NIGHTLY-p940, because this version uses 2nd-init and includes working recovery for our device). We don't have to compile 2nd-init, because we have it working in 100% from Prada. We must edit boot.tar from prada to start porting. This is the most important thing to start porting. This is only idea for now. I think it is useful.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] cmahendra:
ha ha ha. Actually everyone must know that the greatest service, rendered to mankind among any animals in the world, is done by guinea pigs and monkeys. They helped mankind in making medicines. May be some of us are here same. lol :D

Will try later and will let you know, Thanks a lot dude. Was waiting for some time. :)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] sguerrini97:
I'm going to try this now, thank you!

However... In fastboot there's an option called "boot". Example:

fastboot boot boot.img

I read on a site that this command can boot a custom recovery.img on a xperia phone.. Do you know if we can use this to boot a kernel / recovery (we can use fastboot with omap4boot)?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artas182x:
No, we can't use this because we haven't got keys for signing boot.img and recovery.img.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] cmahendra:
Oh Got it, Thanks @artas182x

Please tell, which exact variant you tried your CWM install method on? P760, P765 or P769? Just being bit more conscious.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artas182x:
I tried on P760 variant on 10b rom, but I think it works on P765 and other roms ex. 10e, 10a (must be rooted). This way (2nd-init) we caN load custom ramdisk. Just need to copy boot.tar to /system/bootstrap and system will load custom ramdisk when it starts booting. For now our L9 is unbrickable (beacuse we haven't got access to recovery.img and boot.img) and we can try many methods to port CM9 or CM10 without hard brick.

We can uninstall recovery. We must delete /system/bootstarp directory, delete /system/bin/e2fck file and rename /system/bin/e2fck.bin to e2fck.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] nevp:
@artas182x

For me your installer recovery doesn't work.

if I first install your recovery version, then APK from prada. I have brick, Security Error.

On fresh ROM, i must install first APK Recovery forum prada, next your recovery version, and now working.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] sguerrini97:
I've got a 10c version (WIND ITALY) and the phone strats up normally in android, not recovery.

I will flash a no-brand firmware (10a) and I will report back when I've time.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] cmahendra:
Wow! This is hell lot of useful info. Hats off to you pal. :) I loved that phrase "unbrickable". Well LG always made most of devices totally unbrickable. Optimus 2x is great example. My family still uses it even after I softbricked it hundred times and unbricked back. :D May be this confidence made me buy second LG in a row. :D

Great workaround nevp. Now this L9 thread is moving to right direction. Thanks to you too. :)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artas182x:
If you used prada installer, you don't have to use this now. Only replace files if you used prada installer anytime. I made alpha wersion of modded wersion of prada installer for our l9 (internal sd still not working, only automatic installer).

Please, test (only roms without installed recovery), please don't tell images don't fit. I only made installer (better images will be added soon).

Apk CWM installer for L9 (full automatic, edited prada installer): http://www.mediafire.com/?bf4o332m185c02p.

Don't use TWRP option for now (I don't tested this and I don't know is it work).

Please wait, new better version comming soon.

Please don't edit this apk for now. I want to finish it working in 100%.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kevev:
Thank You for the hard work on this. I have a P769 and there is no recovery image available, so I do not feel safe flashing it. Hopefully someone with the same device will be brave enough to try it. :)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] AngryWolf80:
Oh, I thanks a lot. I found where it holds packed ramdisk. When I got some free time, I want to experiment with uventd.* files and other stuff. Suspect what prada have some different hardware configuration and so.

And I want to build own CWM, based on stock recovery.img

PS: about backup. In stock ROM on my phone present app called "Backup" (by Sprite Mobile). Very userful app, it does backup of all data and apps to SDCard or internal memory. And after I do hard reset, this backup restores all (apps, logs, settings and other).

PPS: and another thing... do you have stock app called "RemoteCall Service"? When I this app, it claims root access. But what if my device doesn't have root? Maybe it contains some stuff for root never firmwares?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] sguerrini97:
Recovery doesn't work also on the no-brand firmware (V10A) on my P760... Android starts instead of recovery.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] nevp:
@sguerrini97

If you want CWM, You should do factory reset, rooting phone and install CWM for Prada APK, next install CWM from artas182x.

Is the hard reset really needed? Why?

Anyway I will try later, after a backup. Thank you for the suggestion :)

Edit: still doesn't boot in recovery :(

When holding volume down sometimes the phone starts in "safe mode" (as far as I know, in this mode 3rd part applications are disabled).

The "Reboot recovery" button in the app doesn't work too.

Edit 2: Is there any other way to launch the 2nd-init script? Can we run it in terminal?

Make a full system dump:

su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system of=/sdcard/external_sd/system.img.ext4

It will be ~1000MB.

To restore this is the command BUT I don't know if it's ok to flash the system partition on booted up phone!

su
dd if=/sdcard/external_sd/system.img.ext4 of=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system

Wipe the phone one more time. Let it sit for 10 minutes while booting. It might just be hung up doing a check on that odex file. It may eventually give up and rebuild the file.
