[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echelon64:
Went ahead and compiled my own cifs.ko module for this phone's kernel and using insmod through a terminal emulator it loaded up fine. I tried using cifsmanager to mount an external drive on my PC but trying everything I could find I only get the phone to get stuck/frozen no matter what.

Note: This require busybox and a terminal emulator of your choice to be installed on your phone.

This is the command I used to load the module:

I had good success just saving the cifs.ko onto /sdcard

Attempting a manual mount using this command:

Only ended up with me rebooting my phone when it attempted a mount.

I ended up using this as a guide:

Due to some kind of issue with the way it works on Kernel's 3.4.x and higher, it requires some funky path strings to mount correctly.

Using cifs manager I tried the same but slightly different.

For my shared path I entered:

//192.168.0.10/PPSSPPSHARED

For Mount Point:

/sdcard/Download

For Username:

00

For Password:

Left blank(N/A)

In the options box I added this:

ip=192.168.0.10,unc=\\\\192.168.0.10\\PPSSPPSHARED,noserverino,username=<myusername>,password=<mypassword>

After that, cifs manager attempted to mount but then the whole phone froze.

I'm stumped. Might be a kernel issue, some more googling reveals it might be the particular method we used to root or I'll have to wait for the bootloader on this phone to be unlocked (not anytime soon of course) to load up a custom ROM with cifs support baked right in.

I'm out of ideas, maybe someone else has better luck or some ideas?

In case anyone is wondering what this is for, it allows you to mount an external drive on a network to your phone's file system, this way all applications have access to the drive instead of just a native app (for example, ES File Explorer allows SAMBA shares but only through the app, other apps installed on the phone can't see the files over the network)

The cifs.ko module I attached should work for an LG L70 MS323 on build number KOT49I.MS32310b. If anyone wants to give it a try.

Problem with sms LG L7 ms323

hi guys this is my first time on the site, I'm from Latin America and I have a MetroPCS LG L70 unlocked.

My problem is that the phone was updated recently and has kitkat 4.4.2 but the sms app does not work.

When I try to send a sms message the phone hangs and freezes and then appears on the screen "message unfortunately has stopped"

I download the file MS32310b_00.kdz but I do not know how to install the firmware.

Any help?

Sorry for my bad English.

thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FluffyFox20:
Unfortunately, many have been able to install the firmware with the KDZ. The only way is through the Lg Software that you install on your PC.

Is it the stock SMS?

anyway to trick the phone into thing sd card is the emulated one?

Hello everyone, im not a developer or anything so forgive my noobie suggestion,

I was wondering if it was possible to make the phone recognize my 32gb sd card as the emulated one the phone, if its possbile it would solve all our storage issues and be able to download all the big games we like. I also have seen a youtube video that says theres a app that swaps the storage of internal into thinking is the sd's memeory. So keep me posted on any possibility this thing might work.

So after a LOT of trial and error I finally got CIFS shares working, I wasn't able to get NFS shares to work as the kernel module I compiled refuses to load on the phone via insmod and using "insmod nfs.ko -f" or "insmod nfs.ko --force" doesn't help. Maybe a symbol issue I'll see if I can figured out how to strip them out and try again.

But it DOES work even if 4.4.2 makes it hard as all hell to get things to mount, what I wouldn't do for a nice unlocked bootloader.

I'll see if I can write a nice tutorial by tomorrow or today.

Thanks. I usually try not to say "godd**nit" and my name's "Bob", so I just threw the two together. Now I always say "bobdamnit" instead of the other one! :P

It seems as though you need to download this package: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xwp394ou5kyncy9/FREEDOM PACK E430.zip and place it on your Windows computer. Install these drivers so that your phone is detected by your computer: http://tool.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425

You must root your phone with Towelroot.apk, also. After that, enable developer options by going to Settings > About Phone > Software information and then tap on "Build number" ten times. Then back out of About Phone in settings and select "Developer Options" and make sure USB debugging is enabled.

Connect your phone to your Windows computer and in the pop up menu, select "LG Software". Then run the batch file in in the Freedom Pack zip. Then download GooManager or ROM Manager on your phone and open it and select "Reboot recovery" and see if it worked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crutchcorn:
I gotcha. Fun stuff. Alright, I was wondering if that was the case but it was worded oddly and in a weird order. Heads up though, the drivers will need to be the one for the L70 not the 90. If you want to you could give it a shot as well, I saw some saying it worked and others saying not. Nice to have two people and concurrent evidence. :P If it doesn't I can take a look at the files and see if I just can't make it spacific for our phone and not theirs

"Unable to open /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.3/*"
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crutchcorn:
Assuming this is the case, and L90 and L70 use the same bootloader lock, it is safe the assume that a general vaunerablility which works on one will work on another. Locked bootloader unlocked for one, let's see if we can work for another.

Has ruined partitions, means that it writes and affects partitions as a whole and general groups.

General groups and partition medification fails without doing anything. Error shows unable to open.

Possibly the partitions of the two devices are slightly different from one another; meanwhile the overall method of exploitation remains valid?

Just to double check and run by you one last time, you have root with updated binaries, a Windows computer, and the drivers from the link installed?

How do I get the 2primary partitions for link2sd to work properly? I have 32gb sd card. Will I be able to put my music and pictures back on it from my pc?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FluffyFox20:
If you partitioned it ( Fat32 & ext2, 3, or 4) the area you partition for fat32 is what your phone will recognize as a normal SD card. The Ext2 will be recognized by Link2SD as its secondary partition.

In Link2SD, make sure you have it set to read your SD card to what ever you partitioned it to be.

To do so:

1. Open Link2SD

2. Hit the Menu ( Top Left, or Swype from the side )

3. Hit Recreate Mount Scripts

4. Select what your 2nd partition is ( Ext2, 3, 4)

Then you should be set.

Script

Alright this is for people who have not removed the bloat listed a few pages back. This is a script made by sepero but edited by me to work on the LG L70. Thanks to [MENTION=4427107]bobdamnit[/MENTION] for the list. I will add more to the script as I find more safe .apk's to delete ;)

DISCLAIMER: This is a custom script, it has worked for me and will work for you. If anything happens to your device (it wont) then I will not be held responsible. YOUR DEVICE = YOUR RESPONSIBILITY

Be sure that you have the lastest SuperSu installed. You can find it HERE. Just install it and it will tell you to update the su binary, do it and reboot your phone. You also need busybox installed, just download it from the play store and install it

Instructions:

Download Bloat Removal Script on your phone.

Download Script Manager from the play store

Start Script Manager and select "Browse As Root" then grant it root permissions when asked

Find the "remove_bloat.sh" file and click it, then select "su" at the top then select "run" at the top

Done
​

If my server is ever down for any reason, here is another link you can get the script from: http://d-h.st/alw

It would be pretty cool if we had a forum here at xda to post all of this stuff instead of having people dig through a 30+ page thread to find one thing. Just my opinion

Try running the script through a terminal emulator instead?

First, open up busybox and make sure your busybox is installed to

Check the pic attached for an example.

Next, download a Terminal Emulator of your choice, any will do.

Next, take the remove_bloat.sh script and move it to /sdcard and place it there.

alternatively:

Open your terminal emulator

Type in

and Grant superuser when Supersu pops up.

You should now be root in your terminal emulator (it'll show root@w5 or similar)

next type in:
