So I tried unlocking this morning....it didn't work. Here is the weird part....I rooted and installed L9Recovery but it wouldn't reboot into it. I even took out the battery, inserted and turned it on. The buttons didn't flash like before. Now, I'm going to try open euro 10a first then 20b. If this doesn't work, then this is something LG did to prevent access to fastboot on the phones that shipped with JB. Either that or I just have the worst luck....lol.

You probably had issues with the L9Recovery because your on 10e.ice cream & jellybean use two different versions. L9Recovery 1.4 ice cream & 1.5 jellybean.

You have to use the old l9 recovery 1.3. The new one is only for jb (1.5). It will not work on ICS.

If only we can get to official fastboot on this thing. That backdoor we have is great, but we need the official fastboot.

LG has this habit of removing fastboot after a firmware update. If only we can that ics firmware that works with euro 20b. I have tried so far, 10g and 10e and it doesn't bring back fastboot.

If someone with T-Mobile that unlocked can maybe upload the ics firmware they had....I'd like to use it. :)

What do you mean, fastboot is not operating? The official fastboot only works on unlocked L9, plus you need to be on an unlockable Rom or custom rom for it to work.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] omgbossis21:
On select few other LG phones with a locked bootloader you can erase the boot image and try to boot to enter fastboot. Not so on this phone... I was really hoping to unlock my girls phone. With a locked and unlocked phone it would be easier. I plan to switch phones soon anyway, this is my last LG phone.

Most devices I owned are LG brand, I haven't had any difficulties with unlocking any of their devices till I got this one, but I somehow managed anyway.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] LaDY Vengeance:
What I mean is when you type fastboot reboot bootloader it shows device not found. :sly:

I should've said a easier way to enter fastboot and not official. So there isn't a way to emulate how the P760 is unlocking?

My girlfriend has an LG Motion, I rooted it for her, I can't believe how high that device benchmarked on stock ROM, I'm honestly amazed. I'm surprised LG would run the CPU at 1500mhz max default, that kills the battery way too fast. I underclocked it for her and Greenified it as well, that's all she really wanted and needed on her phone and the battery life is awesome now.

I gotta admit, the battery life on that device was not so good till it was rooted.

Hi,

I recently messed up when trying to unlock bootloader, though now I realized that I was missing an awful lot of files that weren't properly placed.

You mentioned that the dropbox zip file has 4 things: the adb and recovery image folders, v6.bin, and the vb20_00.bin. However, this link is unavilable to me most of the time I try to access it and I'm lacking the adb and recovery image folders. Can you please tell me where else can I get these folders? Or are they already in the folders and just have different names? I'm still very new to flashing kdz files, let alone unlocking a bootloader.

Also, in step 5 you said to move the android folder. But which ones? I've seen that both the radio.zip and the cwm_ts_fix.zip both have an android subfolder(s). Or do you mean to move both of these zips into the C drive, in addition to having them on the SD card? Just want to be sure. :)

I am coming from a different device, but if your bootloader is encrypted (which many carriers now demand), there is no way to unlock. Try to go to Service menue and see if it says unlock allowed or not.

It is possible. I am not sure how to enter service menu on lg. On other phones it is *#*#service#*#*, but it doesn't work on lg. If it says bootlocker status: unlocking not allowed, there is no way to unlock.

I'm thinking and I realized that I don't remember anyone saying that LG officially decided to allow the European phones to be unlockable. Someone just stumbled onto this by pure chance.

If you check a few pages back (maybe about 10 or so) I go on to describe what and where I found the "fuse" and other things. . when you have time. But I can tell you this: unfortunately we do not have a fuse folder, at least that I have found anyway.

I've had it with this headache....lol. I may be getting the Optimus F6 as part of a deal I made with my dad.

The value of the fuse folder is 0. I wonder if changing the value to 1 would do anything.

I have been thinking. When I flash the v20b kdz open Europe, the lg logo is facing correctly on my phone. If I remember correctly it's supposed to be mirrored. Would the x and u boot not being mirrored show that the correct boot is not installed? If that's the case, then could it be possible to flash the correct x and u boot to help unlock the boot loader. Just a thought.
