Actually I thought the f3 had Loki?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] carloswii5:
It's an idea they had but they haven't tested it yet.. I think..
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] carloswii5:
Update yea we do have Loki and it works only problem is that once we enter the recovery it factory resets the phone... would it be possible if we used Loki in the l9's case for those who can't unlock with this method?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] LaDY Vengeance:
Thank you. I've been hesitating....good luck!
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] omgbossis21:
It would have to be ported over. On your phone that factory reset is programed to run before the recovery opens. The LG motion had the same issue you may wanna check into the phandroid atr section to see if/how they worked around that.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
i rooted with the Lelus method while flashing 20B. Now SuperSU is saying it cant install binaries.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Can you check if you are on the MetroPCS apn for us.

Oh and did you swap out the radio P760_AP.fls (i think it's called)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
I swapped out the radio with the one you gave me. I rerooted with LGpwn and it seems to have worked. Yes im on MetroPCS apn. I disabled wifi. My signal is constantly going up and down. With me mostly getting edge signal. I guess thats what you get for living in a basement.:cool:

Edit: i had to reboot when rooting with LGpwn. I just restarted my timer in case that matters

Re Edit: I also have it connected to my computer via usb in LG software mode. Should i change anything?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Don't stay in the basement, go outside and get some fresh air ;)

oh and the edge speed is normal

Another thing, is the LG logo inverted at boot
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
yeah, its been like that since i installed the Euro_X_U.zip. I assume that replaces the bootloader with the Euro one but doesnt it already o that when you flash 20B?

Edit: ive had the same BusyBox and SuperSU since 20f. should i reinstall them?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
It should but it didn't happen all the time. It didn't happen when I was helping someone unlock their bootloader.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] asciix:
I can't set the APN with the following:

mcc="310"

mnc="260"

As soon as I add those values and save, the new APN disappears from the list.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
strange, it has those values for me by default. Are you on the T-Mobile verison or Wind?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Everything has to be just right, or it won't stick. When you press save, it will kick you out of the editing, and take you back to the select apn. If it doesn't do anything when you pressed save, it didn't save.

You can not have a space and everything should look exactly like the pics I posted. It might be the spelling of the apn name, it must be

MetroPCS

Caps and lower case must match, exactly like the pics.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
Yeah, i remember it having a fit when i tried to save it without putting in a name or something else. I know it saved for me because when i look back at the apn info everythings just like in the pics.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] asciix:
I'm on Wind.

I did it twice, the first time I filled everything in and after saving i didn't see any new entry.

So I created a temporary one, and filled in a few things and saved it to make sure it was still in the list.

After I added those 2 values mcc and mnc, the APN disappeared from the list after saving.

I made sure to enter it in with the exact case and everything. I will try it one more time, but it probably won't work for me.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
maybe its different for Wind. This is probably me being stupid but since T-Mobile and MetroPCS merged dont they use the same towers? It may have something to do with it not wanting to save those certain values. Maybe you cant changes those since i had them there by default on T-Mobile.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
I think the apns-conf.xml for wind doesn't have the metropcs info.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] omgbossis21:
Perhaps we can try a apn backup app and host the backup to make it easier
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] asciix:
Yeah, I just did it again one last time, being extra careful.

As soon as I enter

mcc="310" or mnc="260", the entry disappears.

My default mcc=302, mnc=490

I wonder if i can just make the apn and leave those values default.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
I'm sure its possible to modify the apns-conf.xml to have the MetroPCS data.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
okay i had different results this time. After rebooting i got a updating apps loading thing. Then it had a quick pop up that said something about trying again later. Has anyone else ever gotten this?

Edit: I just did it again to see what happened. It said Android Is Upgrading after reboot. So am i unlocked or not?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
So it just rebooted pretty much, never seen that.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Sorry but that's not it. It might be a dalviks cache issue.

Well I'm out of ideas for now.

Did you flash the metropcs kdz or just added the apn?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
i flashed the MetroPCS kdz before flashing 20B. Is there anyway to fix the cache?

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
If anything flash 20b again, wait 40 and try again (don't turn your phone off before issuing the unlock command), I can't think of anything else. Maybe location (city or state) is a issue for some.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
it is possible to fix the screen while in 20B? That way i wouldn't have to keep flashing back.

---------- Post added at 05:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 AM ----------

Its pretty impossible to not turn it off. Since the Lelus rooting method doesnt work my only option is LGpwn which requires a reboot. And it better not be the location, of course that's probably changeable to, hopefully.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Rooting is not important, while on 20B.

When I unlocked my device, I didn't get root, it failed (the bin i had was not edited properly or corrupted). However, I did swap out the radio. So I didn't have root but I had a good signal. I waited 4 & 5 hours (wifi about 1 & and the rest signal). I never turned off my device before issuing the command. So having root is not the key here.

You do know that the video is missing an important step, and that's running the Root Lelus "start.bat" (i think it's called) it has the folder stuff inside of root lelus.

When I helped firegoblin unlock his device, we waited about 1 hour, I had root & swapped the radio file. I did not turn the phone off.

firegobline broke the L9 that I helped him unlock, so he got a new one. He did the same thing but he only waited 30 mins and it didn't work (phone just rebooted). He then waited longer about 45 to an hour I told him, and it worked on his second try. He has the LGMS759 model (both devices unlocked were the metro version)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] bulletfreak:
So i would have to run the bat to root it properly? Should i wait 5 hours?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Versatil2010:
If i remember correctly that bat pushes some file into ur phone and you run it before flashing kdz i think. And why so long of a wait i did exactly 35 mins.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
I added some more info to my previous post.

My device is the old T-Mobile model, I waited 4 to 5 because I did a lot of reading, I wasn't taking any chances of it not working on the first try.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] LaDY Vengeance:

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] leolawliet:
Exactly what I did the first time around:

I started out with stock ICS

I enabled USB Debugging

I enabled Show Touches

I enabled WiFi

I also made sure I changed the WiFi sleep policy setting to Never

I kept my device in an area with a good connection to the WiFi signal

I flashed v20B

Rooted with LGPwn

Updated SU & busybox

Installed Terminal

Didn't even flash bootstrap recovery

Didn't even flash radio

I let it sit for an hour and a half while keeping the screen from shutting off

I patiently waited there killing time playing emulators on my other device

I ran the unlock command from the phone via terminal (for the hell of it)

The unlock prompt popped up

I presses volume up

I figured out the rest after using fastboot to flash legit full working recovery

2-00 00

3-00 00

4-00 00

There is a change the T-Mobile firmware added a nvalue like stated before. I dont know which is better, nvalue or odm reserve?

I know this is unrelated but: To activate, press the keys *3370# your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery

The two values for odm reserved represent the efuse values. The 4x bootloader is not the same I have been through it.

It was strange. At first I tried to download euro 10h, but it kept saying access forbidden. And I made sure my host file didn't have the lg addresses. Same thing happened with the previous releases.

You know, I've been looking at the build.prop and the init. The build.prop has nothing but information on the phone but that init.rc has some serious crap on it. I mean it looks like some kind of persist, reboot persist, automatic check persist. . .I mean it has something like #if no boot recovery then go to something, I can't remember but then it says something like persist automatic reboot. . . ugh just read the damn thing when you have like a half an hour to kill. So where EXACTLY does the command oem-unlock go to? I mean adb doesn't seem to work very well for most of us. . sure while the phone is on and connected but it seems like adb reboot is the only thing that is sent to the phone. ..no oem-unlock. . .no reboot-bootloader. . .where is the damn bootloader!?!

I haven't found anything that says anything about bootloader. I found bootloader in the build.prop. . something like

#AP Bootloader Version

ro.lk.version=LK May-2012

that's it.
