Dude first remove all things from your mobile like sim, memory card, battery and then plug your phone to your pc with odin ready in it...

Then connect your phone to pc via usb cable (no battery in it now)..

Now after connecting go to download mode and then insert battery... Then flash it normally...

ok i have a lgms769 from metropcs i flashed the t-mobile 20vf kdz( the lg p769) i have root but cant unlock bootloader or install recovery but i have root, i had it unlocked til i flashed a wrong rom and had bricked it.

someone please help
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Justinchi:
+1 this.I'm not gonna even bother flashing a TMO ROM. Too much headache.

I'm also frustrated that there are no kdz files or ROMs specifically for the L9 MetroPCS version.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Lgms769 is exactly like P769. Another thing (to OP) you would know if you unlocked the bootloader. Unlocking bootloader requires flashing euro kdz 20b, and you will mess your phone up if you don't do some reading.

CM 10.1 P769
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Justinchi:
but with the P769 firmware, does the phone still function properly on MetroPCS's 4G ??? And is there no simple way to unlock it? Seems to be way too complicated.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] omgbossis21:
Check phandroid there is a cyanogen mod by bobzhome and I believe they are near perfect (both versions).
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
There is no simple way to unlock.

Second question

Yes it operates fine on the T-Mobile ROM. MetroPCS and T-Mobile have merged together.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] thasilenthacker:
I downloaded rom toolbox and ran the cpu info script and the lgms769 has a lg p769 board in it, i have root and recovery on lgms769 v10b so its ok i guess im woeking on a custom rom.

And for update binary ro.product.device is u2.

On OP is a tweak to add move 2 sd, and a swap script that will allow you to install large games. Since you have rom toolbox just use it to change the build.prop and add the swap script (set at boot)

CM 10.1 P769
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] omgbossis21:
Metro already allows moving to SD card. That's where the script idea came from I believe :D

correct when i got my lgms769 the option was available but i dont use it
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
I added it to the build.prop, not unless they changed something when it finally came out. That option was not present in the build.prop of the kdz I got from lg. I found this out by comparing the build.prop of wind and T-Mobile.

Please help.

I am a newbee to embedded devices, can someone help me or let me know what I can do with this mobile (LGM769 MetroPCS)?

Can the bootloader be unlocked and can I run custom ROMs on it? I read a lot of posts which just confused me (Maybe it's my Multiple Sclerosis) maybe I am just thick either way some help would be much appreciated. I know this mobile is getting old but it's the only thing I have.

Thanks,

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] shinobisoft:
No brother, this phone is definitely a nightmare. Unlocking the bootloader is the tricky part. I haven't tried myself, can't afford for my phone to be down while attempting to unlock the bootloader. There are those who have succeeded on the first try and there are those who have tried many times and failed.

If you have plenty of free time on your hands, then I'd give it a shot. But, before you do, make sure you have LGs drivers installed on your PC as well as the OMAP4 fastboot drivers. Because of the OMAP4 fastboot drivers, this phone is practically unbrickable. Just search the threads in the L9 forums for 'fastboot'.

As for your device getting old, I still have a Optimus One variant, P509, that's still running today. And there's a KitKat ROM for it too. I really wish the L9 was as easy to manage as my Optimus T is.

Best of luck :D
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] BaCs74:
Thank you for the reply :) I'll check it out because this is my only mobile right now. Might have to rethink it. I read the whole thread and noticed that this so-called "devil phone" is not worth the effort. Next time I will just purchase a mobile that has been boot-loader unlocked and root potential and be done with it..lol

Cheers!
[Asus Transformer TF700] gixxer340:
I was just wondering what regular maintenance can be done to keep that newly flashed ROM feeling. It seems like everyone thinks their tab is so fast after a new ROM install and I wonder how much of this is really due to wiping everything clean and then flashing. If that is the case is there a way to bring it back to this without losing any programs or data?

I am very happy with my setup and I don't want to move forward to the latest ROM just for the sake of it (although CROMI 5.0 is beckoning me pretty hard). If I can keep this one running as good as it did when I first installed that will be perfect for me.

My setup BTW:

CROMI-X 4.6.9

Max V4 RC1

Quadrants ranges between 6200 and 6600 (sometimes I get a low run as well ~5800 but I am not sure why)

Thanks

Jeff
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
A clean install (factory reset in TWRP) will do that. I do it every 3rd or 4th flash.

If that doesn't do it, a format data will, but that's more restore intensive.

Develop a backup strategy and follow it at all times. Also good if something goes wrong...

Mine is:

backup user apps and data in TiBu

backup custom launcher settings

always have a current nandroid

choose you microSD as backup directory for all of the above

Only have data on the internal SD backed up in Dropbox or on your PC

That allows me to wipe/format data at any point without loosing anything :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] gixxer340:
Thanks for the answer but what I really meant was clean up without re-flashing. I do nandroids regularly (about weekly or so) but I don't use TiBu much. I am looking for something to keep the same ROM I have running as smoothly and fast as possible over time. I understand that your method would get me there as well but I don't want to re-flash if I don't have to.

Thanks again

Jeff
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
IMO you are asking how you can run your car without ever changing the oil and never have repairs :)

There's only one answer: Don't drive it...
[Asus Transformer TF700] gixxer340:
I don't understand this answer at all. I am asking how to change the oil without having to change the entire engine every time. Periodic maintenance is exactly what I am asking about.

I must not be asking the question correctly. What I am asking is can I do something liken to defrag used to be for windows, or cleaning up temp files, or the registry, or anything else that is done to keep android running smoothly short of re-flashing the entire ROM just to tune it up.

If it still doesn't make sense I will try to ask elsewhere, but I think it is a pretty straight forward question.

Thanks again and sorry for the frustration if I am creating any.

[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
You can try lagfix.. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
I've never wiped data on my tablet since I first got it (with 9.4.5.22) - everything is running fine. I've run Lagfix once, just to see what it does, and I am using Greenify to keep some apps I don't need from starting on system events.

The Play store app doesn't run particularly well, but everything else is smooth and mostly lag free.
[Asus Transformer TF700] PAPB0007:
Better yet, schedule LagFix for 30 minutes before Titanium Backup runs and schedule TB to restart afterwards. This will help give that nice crisp feeling you desire.

Before I started doing that, I would just restart every once in a while to get it unlagged
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Ah but you should try it. You might be surprised. How do you know if you haven't done it? ;) Most unscientific :)

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:

Presumably by the lack of response he is formatting and wiping now to prove me wrong :p
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Sorry Jeff, I didn't mean to frustrate you!

My experience with Windows or Android is, that the longer you run it, the more things gum up. You install, uninstall stuff -and something's always left behind - you have apps installed you completely forgot about even though you never use them (and they keep calling home to update or whatnot...) - the longer you run a system, the slower it gets.

I wish it was as easy to clean the slate in Windows as it is in Android! I don't find re-flashing a rom (and it may well be the same one if you like to) much of a trouble at all!

I'm just now contemplating to go back to my (ancient) Win XP desktop because my Win7 laptop starts behaving like it's on Vista!

On any computing device, IMHO, erasing everything and starting fresh is a necessity dictated by time of use.

Unless you're _that of course. But who knows - maybe he's still on .30 firmware??? ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
"Most unscientific"? I know someone who included placebo build.prop tweaks in his ROM and a Bravia engine that had no effect at all. :p Let's just say I'm lazy and I try to avoid unneeded work wherever possible.

Right. :) I am running Linux on my desktop PC. I never had to erase everything. My current OS installation is from 2009, and I only had to reinstall (the first time since 2003) because I switched from 32 to 64 bit.

10.6.1.14.4, I think. Stock ASUS, deodexed, with *very* few tweaks. (one of the tweaks is a that4-oc kernel where the CPU overclocking doesn't work :))

I rooted my GS3, verified root. I am trying to flash ROM, every time I try through Goo manager and TWRP it fails I get error message "no MD5 file" doesn't matter if I download ROM from XDA (when I can find them) or download through Goo Manager. tried to even flash with ODIN, which only let's me restore to Stock ROM/Backup. which had MD5 file. when I try to browse for MD5 files I don't see them in the zipped or unzipped files on my PC, and not in ODIN either. I have verified developer options is on, and I tried with USB bugging on and off. and uncheck verify MD5 as well. I down loaded to pc and have tried to download directly to the device. not running antivirus on device and shut antivirus off on pc. will not copy files from pc to device. Device also stops or seems to loos connection on pc via USB Cable. What am I missing here? this is not rocket science!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mgostom:
Have you verified MD5 of the ROM? Also, another suggestion, perhaps try to change recoveries from TWRP to CWM. However, you mentioned that you can't even download the Rom to your device? I assume you're able to browse the device's content since you used Odin to stock? Lastly, try to Odin back to stock, root it, flash recovery and give it a go.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Don't flash custom ROMs from goo manager or odin... Do your standard wipes, and flash from recovery. Maybe your recovery needs updated? What version are u on? You can verify md5 sums with a file explorer such as astro or there's even an md5 checker here in the forums. As far as transferring files from PC to phone, is your USB cable good?

Yeah, I've never used twrp, been using cwm for years and am kind of partial to it.

No MD5 file found

I have tried CWM as well. for some reason none of the ROMS no matter where I download from seem to pull the MD5 file, liquid smooth, paranoid 3.69, carbon, none, I try to browse the device for them and nothing. But I can't seem to even do my first flash! I noticed in any of the ROMS I download for some reason it does not pull the MD5 file. I have downloaded from here XDA and other sites, and android forums too! I don't get it. This should be fairly easy according to all the research I have done even before my first attempt. I can root no problem, I used Odin and Samsung GS3 Tool kit.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Badfish63:
No MD5 file found

I followed your suggestion using CWM 6.0.3.6. and yes it does seem to work better! I am almost there! I am able to flash custom ROMS. but the seem to get hung up upon reboot. USB cables brand new. I even tried different USB Port and Different PC. Still being a bugger! I wish I could find other ROMS more easily on here! or even a little easier on some of the developer sites. I found a work around and pull my ext. SD card and download ROM to that and not on the PC. I found some really Nice one I would like to try but like I said seems to hang on reboot like hour and I get tired of waiting. Thanks for your help! any other suggestions would be GREATLY Appreciated!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bubba Fett:
The Roms should not be that hard to find and as stated you NEED to verify the MD5 before installing. Thats the long weird numbers/letters in the download sceen. A bad flash is a headache. To double check, you are doing (in CWM or TWRP) wipe data, then wipe cache, then wipe dalvick right? If you dont do those things its a dirty flash and will cause issues. Then in CWM in the install from sdcard screen, try to toggle the signature verification option. Also, sometime when you go from CM to TW and back, it can be a problem. Try wiping/reset from the settings-backup and restore-factory reset option for a super clean wipe. Use caution though as this will delete internal sdcard so back it up and put the rom of choice on external SD. This is a hassle but needs to be done on occasion. If you use titanium backup, copy to folder to external sd and change restore location in preferences.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] divophone:
Something I just found.

I have flashed custom roms to my padfone2 and everything was fine but when I tried to flash zip file with stock rom it showed no md5 file error.

I had a look into the downloaded stock rom zip file and I found out that the actual zip file with rom in it was in a folder inside downloaded zip. As soon as I extracted the zip from downloaded zip and flashed it everything went without a problem. Maybe I'm just stupid not to have look at that in the first place but I hope it helped others. Best of luck everyone.

Good Afternoon sorry for bumping an old thread.

I joined today because I am having the same problem that the original poster had written about.

I have an ATT samsung galaxy s3, I had root access, and verified with super user. I also installed TWRP and CWM because each kept giving me errors when I tried to install CM 11 onto my phone. It also says there was no MD5 information found. I have used the md5 file checker program and the MD5 matches up to

Download:

CM 11.0 Unofficial Beta 7 for d2tmo and d2att

MD5: ef93957db1e6704f23f9015231a82826

So the MD5 matches, yet when I try to install it keeps giving me errors. I also tried other versions of CM that I found on here via links. Right now my phone has no OS as another guide I read some where also said to wipe system data (sorry if that was stupid, I was just following a guideline)

So I'd like to get a working OS on my phone asap so I can get calls and texts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. And being new I'm sorry if I broke any taboos or did not give some information that is typically given when describing a problem.

[LG Optimus Black] slyfth:
You have a locked bootloader, because you are using LG's official ICS V30C ROM. It has a locked bootloader, if you try to access the recovery from within the ROM, it gives that security error (sometimes). I will suggest following jockjoint's thread to get your OB an unlocked bootloader.

It will help you unlock the bootloader and then also flash a compatible version cwm, because not all versions are working with the new V30C. Once you finish following the method prescribed, your phone will boot into cwm, flash su.zip then and you'll have root. Then flash a ROM+kernel of your choice after 2-3 wipes. (IZSv1.1+diana3 v0.5 = my personal favourite).

I know, if you were trying to backup your ROM, it was because you had some important data to preserve. But there's no way you can get your phone working and preserve the data at the same time, unless, you are one of those, one in a billion lucky ones who manage to bypass the locked bootloader and get into the ROM because you were pressing all stupid combinations of hardware keys one can imagine of, when the phone was booting up. If are one of those lucky souls, you can use UPK (Upgrade KIt) to unlock the bootloader and then just flash a compatible cwm version (part of UPK itself) and you are good to go. UPK is a sticky in the OB forums section on xda. Otherwise use 'Search'.
