Finally someone else confirming this issue. I have the same problem with my L450. I initially thought this was a problem only on my phone and that it i had a problem with the firmware. I have flashed the latest Chinese firmware and still have the same problem. LG is unaware of this problem this is there reply to this issue

I think the best option for us is to install wifi fixer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.wahtod.wififixer I found this to be the only app that works. and wait for a new update or custom rom that fixes this issue

Does this problem happens with all the networks you are connected to? I mean has anybody tried with a different network? Because it seems that the only difference of wifi on E610 and E450 is a "dual-band" feature, maybe it is a compatibility issue with your router frecuency?

Or maybe it is a firmware problem? this is my software info:

Hello Slipsystem.

I was thinking that it was only my phone too.. No app fixed, nor flashing new roms, nothing worked.

I saw your post about Wifi Fixer. So I will try it.

I was doing it the manual way, -Wake up phone.. -Wifi off.. -Wifi on.(Each time my screen went off) (Yeah, maybe 5 times in 5 minutes).

Also I tried modifying the build.prop, not luck - (To be true, I didnt know what I was doing, I was really desperate)

I know no one has been able to get a custom recovery to work for our phone yet. But if it were possible what would you like to do with it other than Install a custom rom. Debloating is a must but what type of mods/ports would you want to install on your device. for me i miss the xperia range of media apps so I ported it to my phone. Before I write a tutorial I want to know what your suggestions are.

Hello again! As you know my L5 II was dead, but now thanks to you it is not anymore.

Answering your questions. The first thing I would like to see is a WiFi-issue Fix. Then maybe a AOSP-themed (Settings and some other things) lite rom, or even better.. a cyanogen port.

For mods or port, maybe a port from the beautiful lock-screen of the LG G2 (Maybe I'm dreaming). But to be honest, I don't really envy anything from other phones.

In overall, I'm very happy with this phone.

The only bad thing = WiFi :silly:

If you are really interested on developing, porting, modding.. I could be a tester for your work :D

The recent news from CyanogenMod are that they are working on an installer so that the mod will work on any phone yay, so im expecting it will solve the wifi issue on ours... I guess it will install a custom recovery so we will be able to flash easier :)
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] slipsystem:
WiFi Fix is a definite, I am not sure how to fix this though I think it has something to do with a kernel tweak or something. I dont like to play around with anything except the system folder.

AOSP-Theme I am looking into for you, I found a few threads but it seams to require a CWM based rom.

LG G2 seems possible as far as I know it is the same as our lock screen just with added effects. I am pretty sure this is possible. It might take some time as I need to download a LG G2 rom to port these feature and the Roms are almost 2 gigs and my internet connection is very slow. It is probably something to do with pushing the lockscreensettings apk and then copying some libs and frameworks to get all the effects to work.

ivan0550 request for LG G2 Lock Screen. I am not getting a Force Close anymore but I am stuck with editing the framework-res.apk hopefully after editing that I will get the effects to work.

ivan0550 request for a wifi fix, still havent found a working solution for this, Fede37 recommended changing the router settings from WPA2 to WPA this has no effect. I am going to try setting my router to different bands and frequencies to see if it will stabilize.

rotorto request for mass storage option, all of the tweaks that I made to the build.prop doesnt seem to throw my phone into mass storage mode. I am not sure if there is a way to get this to work without installing a 3rd party app.

ivan0550 request for a AOSP like settings. I am not experienced in Cynogenmod or AOSP as all of my previous android phone didnt have one of these custom roms available. I am not sure on how the settings work and what its sapposed to do but maybe this post can shed some lite

this has proven to be more difficult than I thought.

It seems to me(correct me if i am wrong) that its a part of the kernel.

simply pushing the doubletapwake and the home launcher does not make this work. I have also tried replacing the framework with on from the update and this doesn't work either.

does the kernel differ from e450, e455, e460?

How did you almost get a bootloop?

init.d runs scripts at start up. so for instance you can make a script to swap you sdcard for you internal storage.

or to mount a swap partition.

then every time you reboot it will run the script automatically.

no problem I like to put my knowledge to the test. I will carry on looking for a solution to port this.

Required apps

So after a few bricks and looking at a file list from the l3 II

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50787736&postcount=13

I came up with this

AtciService.apk

EngineerMode.apk

EngineerModeSim.apk

LocationEM.apk

MediaTekLocationProvider.apk

MobileLog.apk

MtkBt.apk

MTKThermalManager.apk

YGPS.apk

these are apps not included in the l3 II and I think they are necessary for the device to boot.

so when porting a rom you need to keep these files

which proves difficult as you need to change the framework which would probably stop those apps from working.

unless you can get them to run independently

I am not sure as I am not a developer and it may be that I am making mistakes porting CM and PAC

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 AM ----------

I can maybe shed some light.

there is no fastboot for our device.

I am pretty sure that download mode replaces the bootloader for this reason

we recieved the knock knock update. I have had a look and it seems to me that in order for this feature to work some modifications have to be done to the kernel. so lg would have to update the kernel. If they can update the kernel they can update the bootloader.

also some people coming from ICS on other devices, when upgrading to jellybean they were not able to unlock the bootloader the same way they did before so there solution was to flash back ICS and unlock the bootloader.

also when using the tool which [MENTION=2019157]gabi4175[/MENTION] found and so gladly shared with all of us(unlike some people I know). it installed a custom recovey. when flashing again the recovery changed back to stock.

I will try and imitate a secure boot error again and find out what system file causes it. if someone can unpack the kernel maybe they can find the file that it calls on.

at the moment I am guessing that it has something to do with when I replaced the vendor folder. if you open the init.rc there is some reference to a lib in vendor folder. maybe if we check the kernel and check the lib file we can see what it locking it.

PS I am not a developer, I cant even decompile the kernel properly. So dont take my word for it. I might be completely wrong.
