Please help how to root LG L70 (LGD320N)

Hi,

I wish I could ask the skilled advice about the procedure rooting LG L70 (LGD320N)

I followed the instructions in the first post

Only briefly, my procedure:

Install LG drivers to PC.

Format external sdcard - using cardreader - into ext2. Using the MiniTool Partition Wizard.

Download update.zip and move it to ext2 sdcard. I use Ext2Fsd tool to mount ext2 partition to Windows.

Download ADB.rar and unpack it to C:/ADB/

In my phone turn on USB debugging (Settings – General – Developer options – USB debugging)

Connect the phone to computer and confirm USB debugging

Running command (cmd) in the directory C:/ADB/

In the opened window type:

c:\ADB>adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
LGD32076dc415 offline

c:\ADB>adb devices
List of devices attached
LGD32076dc415 device

c:\ADB>adb shell
shell@w5n:/ $ reboot recovery
reboot recovery

c:\ADB>

The phone reboot to recovery.

Unplug phone from PC

I Choose “apply update from external sdcard” (by pressing VOLUME +/- and POWER button)

---------- Until this point everything is OK according to the instructions ----------

A new screen show:

On the background a robot with exclamation and under it the text "No command" (in my case in original "Žádný příkaz" - I have set Czech language)

In the upper left corner of the screen is displayed yellow text - number "52269060463580"

Fortunately, after removing the battery the phone normally starts .

Please advice how to proceed with the ROOT device.

One idea - query:

Can send me, please, exactly how the structure should look like partitions on SD card

I mean Logical/Extended/Primary... (We apologize for any nonsense that do not understand much)

For these experiments using 2GB SDcard -

Following image shows structure of the SD card which I tried the above described:

When trying the procedure, no matter how much I try, the phone (LG L90 D400hn TELCEL) still shows up on ADB as OFFLINE, so, I can't continue with the reboot to recovery... Can someone please help.
[LG Optimus L90] meanhacker:
make sure drivers are correctly installed. enable USB debugging on the phone. make sure you accept the RSA key prompt that the phone asks when you connect it to the computer. also try restarting the computer

Can't root

Hello. I've been trying to root my phone, the LG L70 D320n. I made it to the recovery, but it seems that it can't read my sd card (8gb class 4). I've been trying ext2, ext4, but no luck. Next, I tried sideloading the update.zip file, but when i'm in recovery and i select install from adb, it connects to the pc but the pc does not recognize it. I have been trying to install some drivers for 2 hours but nothing worked. Any solutions?

Read carefully the first post if you need root. For now it is the only way.

You can also use Linux to format your sdcard to ext2. Or any other software for formatting sdcard to ext2 and moving update.zip to sdcard.

You don't need the post you quoted. It is for people who want to extract files from ROM.

If you have precise questions I'll try to answer them.

[LG Optimus L90] olegat0r:
The process for getting KDZ is described above.

For partitions I've used PartitionTable from GPlay Market with Advanced mode (gear icon in the app) to define where is each partition.

Then I've used such adb commands:

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p* of=/storage/external_SD/**

where * is a number of partition via PartitionTable and ** is the name of the final file (name of partition).

Example for system partition:

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p32 of=/storage/external_SD/system.img

And it will save the system partition to system.img file on your external sdcard.

MiniTool Partition Wizard works even with Win8.1

Ext2Fsd is not very old, but maybe it doesn't support Win8. Try different software (this will also work http://www.fs-driver.org/ )
