Well I didn't want to post because I don't want anyone to try this method and say it BRICKED THEIR PHONE!!! But I'll say this I didn't find it to work but I didn't try it on the v20b version. I had already flashed back and if you read the info it says that LG told them that only the European versions are unlockable. . .

And here is a 4.1.2 unlocking video that's like 1:30 or so that looked pretty interesting and it takes a while to start so don't panic.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBeirPeT2rQ

And yet another video with reversed locking of the bootloader on 4.1.2: This one made me think about checking the system for the fuse which I found. then I looked into the build.prop and found the ro.lk.version =LK May-2012 which I was assuming is was LK (LOCKED) so I played with it a bit changing it to UNLK, UK, UL but nothing happened as I suspected because I was hoping it would just unlock and since I was not close to a computer I could not issue the command.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-b3PobPw5w

AS I SAID BEFORE THESE ARE JUST FOOD FOR THOUGHT TYPE OF THINGS THAT COULD LEAD US INTO THE RIGHT DIRECTION. I have no idea or claim that they will or will not work on our phone. I used root explorer to manipulate the build.prop and search for the fuse, fyi.

Oh yeah and my bootloader is still locked.

EDIT: Sorry about that I was going to say that it was a script but inside a tool. I was thinking about taking it apart and checking the actual script inside the program but just haven't had time. Sorry for the confusion guys and gals! ;)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45473563&postcount=3 is the cwm non touch (cwmrec.img), when you get fastboot operating do the following.

Place cwmrec.img in the "yours" folder.

Select option #1.fastboot

When it's working type the following,

fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery cwmrec.img

Then take out the battery and put it back in. Next is entering cwm

Hold volume up button + home button + power button (release power button at LG logo)

Then flash my zip V20F KUMA

While in cwm select install zip sideload

Place V20F zip in a folder that has adb.exe

Open a command prompt in that folder (hold down shift key on keyboard and right click with mouse in that folder) and type

add the metropcs apn and use that apn, then go into recovery and install my zip Euro X&U.zip

then flash Euro 20b with R&D tool

install my zip Euro

then flash 10b (metroPCS)

add metroPCS apn & select it

then flash 20b (euro)

swap radio

wait 40 to an hour, try unlock

I'm not sure if flashing 10b will make a difference.

Does 10b even support unlocking the bootloader? I think all the success storys on MetroPCS everyone flashed to 20B since it was the only one with a kernel that supported unlocking the bootloader. But the MetroPCS apn should still work on 20B right?

You can't unlock on 10B kdz. The apn should stay if you don't have to wipe your data partition. If you wipe data, it definitely won't work.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Are you asking about the Euro X&U zip, or my cwm backup zip.

You need artas182x 2nd init recovery to install the Euro zip.

My cwm is a regular backup you need to extract the zip to your micro sd card. I'm not sure if the 20f will allow the metropcs apn, I haven't checked it. Like I said earlier, I'm just brainstorming, this is all of the stuff I would try if I was in y'all shoes.

I think flashing the kdz (10B) might be better then restoring a cwm backup. I'm not sure if the kdz contains important data, that needs to be replaced/changed before going to 20B

so the 2nd init recovery is the L9 Recover Installer? You cant install anything though that without unlocking the bootloader first.

I have tried unlocking bootloader multiple times. Each time has been unsuccessful. I have turned on wifi, waited 40 mins to an hour. Turned off wifi waited the same amount of time (also had tmobile sim in phone). When I enter the adb reboot oem-unlock command it just reboots. I'm on v20f, rooted. I would like from the people who has successfully unlocked the bootloader what version were you on before flashing v20b, did you set the display to never timeout, and were you rooted prior to flashing. I have flashed many phones, but this one is a pain. Please help.
