Proper engrish

I have made some progress for our phone the l90 (d415)but i posted my findings on a different post that is meant for the mettro l70 i left the page number in one of my earlier threads .it was 1 am and i was tired so get off my back misses (generic teacher name) .It shows as rooted in the "secret" lg menu as well as when i enter download mode.THe kdz fw update tool hangs at 15 % with debugging on shttps up and host changed and in lg software mode you must change it to the camera(ptp) mode so that it will recognize the phone .Then the update tool recognizes the phone but when it comes to flash it says unable to flash due to fatal error.I have triend it in 3gqct (emergency,diag,csemergency ) but no luck i have the latest drivers and everything .I have offered to teamview with someone else with a fresh mind to flash because i have attempted everyway to flash the d410 kdz and the stock but both have ended in the error message .I have the logs for the errors and the picture where the secret menu says im rooted email me at angel.ortiz240@yahoo.com for info on my findings for the l90 and the logs as well as the screenshot .BTW like i have said the secret menu says im rooted but no superuser manager recognizes it(supersu,superuser,etc)

This is the thread i confused with this one p=53327923 i only put the last part because i thought yall would have common sense and know that that is the manner xda threads are setup
[LG Optimus L90] AndroidAddict||AA:
It shows as rooted because you tripped LG's root security, that means that no matter what you do, LG will know you tried rooting your device so you now have no warranty on it.
[LG Optimus L90] angort14:
i know that i ws just saying does that mean i am or am not rooted
[LG Optimus L90] AndroidAddict||AA:
You're not rooted but it wouldn't hurt to check by using a root checker.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
Hmm. "Extract cab file error" and "STEP_TYPE_ENV_ERROR."

The second error came after trying to delete the LGMOBILEAX\Phone directory. Maybe it failed to delete it, or it didn't exist somehow?

flashing

Well i have flashed kdz succesful for the l9 many times and i think im good at using the program but like i said email me to teamview and you can have a crack at it and i heard that nuking the laf partition allows us to access fastboot
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
Trust me, I would love to help you I'm any way possible, but I don't feel comfortable performing such things on somebody else's device, especially a device I'm not yet familiar with. Is your device usable? If it is, I'd just use it normally until a well-suited dev hears our cries.

We get the same errors with l70. LG did this. MS323 version a was the only kdz that worked on the L70 so far.

That's not it, it's just failing to flash.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
I apologize for quoting your entire response, I'm on Tapatalk.

Could the MS323 equivalent work for the L90?

Seriously, this is a huge relief

After much waiting (me) and working (the devs :p) the MetroPCS version has finally been rooted :highfive: and hopefully, we can now have a device thread. Or not ? :laugh:

At least you could now switch to Life's (gone) Good ?
[LG Optimus L90] Rabid Flasher:
Wow, that's a big file. Even for an lg device. I'm guessing that it's some strange mix of stock code and cyanogenmod. If its even for our device, that is.
[LG Optimus L90] xyrnox:
I've downloaded the package.

It is definitely not Cyanogenmod. It's some kind of modded stock firmware.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
If no progress is being made on our phone, I can contact payback personally and talk to him. I'm learning Russian, so I can speak more or less adeptly. I can send him any files he requires as well.
[LG Optimus L90] Rabid Flasher:
I think that would be the best course of action because it doesn't look like anyone here is going to make very much progress anytime soon.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
I've left Payback a message on 4PDA. Russia spans half the time zones, so I'm not necessarily sure where he lives, but there's a good chance he's in Moscow/St.Petersburg/Volgograd, which are all 8 hours ahead of me (Florida), so it's currently night time there. Unless he lives in the Kamchatkan peninsula (near Alaska and Korea), I won't likely receive a reply until I'm in dreamland.

And for those that are familiar with LG devices - Payback is the one that cracked the original L-series bootloader. The L7 guys are forever indebted to him.

Let's hope this goes well - I have faith in him, however, not sure whether or not he would want to help us.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
Also, in curiosity, does anyone here have a stock ROM backup? Not necessarily a KDZ, rather, a backup. Looking to do some stock tweaking.
[LG Optimus L90] m.swastik:
You can take backup of system.img by using if/of command. I have the file but it is 2 GB, cannot upload that big file.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Slight correction... if/of command should be dd if= of= command. ;) I'm sure he's well aware of how to make his own backup. I'd say, like me, he's already modified his system so he cannot get a true stock backup image of the ROM on his phone. Which is what he's looking for.
[LG Optimus L90] m.swastik:
yeah it is dd if= of= command ....but then i think it is better to download kdz file which should be around 1 GB.
[LG Optimus L90] angort14:

I tried flashing the zip from 4pda and i got E:error executing update er binary in zip '/sdcard/w7dx_elite_signed_070114_134255.zip i think we should change w7 which is i guess the standard lg name for the d41(X) variants to d415

Hi guys, I am a new user of this phone, although i have used android phones earlier. Can we get 3g video calling by any software tweaks for this phone?

Does rooting it affects battery backup?
[LG Optimus L90] Rabid Flasher:
Erm... As far as I know we don't have a native app for video calling. (Unless you count hangouts which, IMO, is total garbage.)
[LG Optimus L90] sorabh.v6:
Does rooting affects battery backup ...... how's ur battery back, i mean how many hrs u get after full charge
[LG Optimus L90] Rabid Flasher:
As far as I can tell it's done nothing to my battery. Besides, rooting itself is totally harmless. Danger only arises when you give random apps root priviledges.

[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:

[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Do you mean D415? There is no LG Optimus L90 D145...

[LG Optimus L90] LaDY Vengeance:
So that aboot.bin patch DOES work?
[LG Optimus L90] Riku Azhurlar:
The boot loader on d415 isn't locked as far as I onew
[LG Optimus L90] krchi:
It is
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
I'm fairly sure the bootloader is locked on the D415 however, unless someone else knows, there is no way to check the status of the bootloader to my knowledge. There is absolutely nothing about the bootloader in the hidden menu like there was with the L9. Gonna try booting in to SW Upgrade mode and see what happens...

---------- Post added at 07:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

Interesting... Got a screen with the title "BOOTLOADER". Had to wait 2 or 3 seconds to get to "Upgrade" mode. Nothing about the bootloader status however the bootloader did determine that the ROM was ROOTED. "ROOTED" was written in bold red letters...
[LG Optimus L90] Rabid Flasher:
What button combination did you use?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Not just keys but data cable too. Power off device. While holding Vol+ plug data cable in to device. The other end should be attached to your PC already. The first screen that pops up says to continue holding Vol+ until download screen shows.
[LG Optimus L90] Ilxaot:
That is interesting. Maybe we can run the command while in that screen? Fastboot possibly?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Didn't look like fastboot to me.
[LG Optimus L90] krchi:
That s/w mode is only for flashing kdz as I messed with it quite a bit when my phone was softbricked not even lg software would work with my phone like that so I'm fairly sure its only for kdz
[LG Optimus L90] LaDY Vengeance:
Maybe a different combination while plugging it in? I sure hope we can get to fastboot on this easier than on the L9!

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=436618&st=100

Kingart, friends of payback, cracked the L90 D410 Bootloader a while ago. I've linked the page with his post. Now, this is nothing new, but, is there any possibility this would work on our device? If not, what needs to be modified? Some people on the page were talking about the aboot.bin Lady keeps talking about.

Hi Everyone,

Is it worth buying Lg L90 D405? I plan to purchase one, I want to replace my Xperia SP. Are you satisfied with the battery life?
[LG Optimus L90] Portgas D. Ace:
I have - up to now - not regret the purchase of my L90. Depending on how much apps you install and how intensively you use your phone, battery may last up to four days. Apps like Greenify and other hacks (e.g. disable Maps services) are extremely useful to prevent apps from running in the background and thus save battery life.
[LG Optimus L90] helps:
I'm new owner of D405 and I also have no complaints about the phone. As for battery life I wouldn't worry - right now it says 20% of battery life left and estimated time for usage is over 16 hours. And I have wifi on all the time, almost max brightness etc. This phone has pretty decent battery life.
[LG Optimus L90] sorabh.v6:
Mine is not so good, but yes goes 1 day even after extensive use.

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

Can you tell me what tweaks and applications you installed to increase ur battery backup?
[LG Optimus L90] Portgas D. Ace:
Most tweaks are Xposed Framework modules to disable unwanted app behaviour. I have currently installed Greenify, BootManager, MinMinGuard, AdFree and Wakelock Terminator. You may find several tutorials when searching XDA dev.

One more thing: most of those applications require root.

We should split this thread to only be for d415 development and not for other versions because people are going to get confused trying to unlock there d415 bootloader with a d410 bootloader unlock
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
We should, but I can already tell you it's not gonna happen. All the other LG Optimus threads are the same way.
[LG Optimus L90] rysk29:
unless someone creates a new dedicated 415 thread
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Thats the only way its gonna happen. Biggest problem with this and any forum is people don't read, they skim. They see something they want and jump in to it head first without doing any or enough research. Then we end up with a bunch of "help, i bricked my phone" threads.

So what I'm saying if I'm saying anything at all is... research research research!
[LG Optimus L90] rysk29:
ABSOLUTELY! know what your doing b4 u do it.. maybe the op can elaborate on main post about each model also
[LG Optimus L90] TomJ2:
Looks like I'm back to the L90 from the new 4X HD...

Long story short, just got another 4X HD and damned if it also didn't have a bad USB port right out of the factory sealed box. It charges fine, connects to USB, but it's the port/cable inside that also has the backlights for the Back, Home and Menu buttons. Just like the one I bought in Taiwan, this has the backlight missing from the "Back" button. The back button works if you touch that area, just no backlight. looks weird with just the Home and Menu lit, left side bottom stays black.

LG says hardware issue and the only thing I can find online says I need to replace the USB port/cable. So..., back it goes and off to BB for another L90. Perhaps soon (or if I went back and read everything since I left) we'll have a custom ROM and verifiable unlocked BL? Being encrypted, not sure if that's really in the cards though.

I'll update the thread tomorrow with a nicely bolded disclaimer stating that the D415 is a separate model from the D410/405/405n, and that things done to those phones should only be tried if they're confirmed to work on the D415 as well.
[LG Optimus L90] linasj:
The thing is that the phone comes stock with Android 4.4.2. So what update are you talking about? Because sure as hell the LG D405/D410 or D415 didn't get any Android version updates just yet.

Either way, you could try closing down as much of unnecessary background processes and apps as you can to save RAM.
[LG Optimus L90] Jerry101923:
How about letting others know which L90 to talk about in the title, like:

lovely factory reset....

Well, finally got a solution...after the phone got way worse...with many built-in apps being disabled.... SD card was originally partitioned using the mini-tool, but the extended partition at 2gb was just too small for all the apps I had installed. Something got messed up on the SD and it got erased...(along with a bunch of system apps) . So I was forced to do a factory reset, and it worked terrifically! Since I had previously synced the phone with Google, all my contacts and apps too (freshly downloaded from play store) came back and the phone was in top shape in no time.

I reformatted/partitioned the SD card (mini tool couldn't even read it) in-phone using the AParted app, which wouldn't initially work, saying the card was mounted (and it wasn't) unless I fooled it by inserting the SD card AFTER booting up the phone. My new 2nd partition is over 7gb (out of a 16gb card), and now, after re-setting up Link2SD pro, my 150+ apps are all neatly balanced in the different drives.

Phone works great (other than some wifi-calling drop outs...which I think is the router's fault...). My testimony is: Don't be afraid of a factory reset!
[LG Optimus L90] LaDY Vengeance:
Thanks! So I'm guessing that aboot patch won't work on the D415, huh.
[LG Optimus L90] LaDY Vengeance:
I was thinking.... I used this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jphilli85.deviceinfo and the bootloader status says unknown. I wonder what it says for someone that patched the aboot?

Disable MLT from the hidden menu as well. It's LG's suicide/crime snooping service. Looks for porn and stuff, but I've heard people that get a little over 100MB free after disabling. I uninstalled it, didn't t notice a difference, but you all might fare better.

Edit: Yeah, right. Problem solved, I have been a DAU (dumbest assumable user). 405 instead of 415 and everything was fine.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
I'm assuming you don't have a D415 then. Replace the 415 with your device model number. Ie; 405, 410

Also note that you MUST use the stock dialer to access the secret menu.

There's a menu about backlight, but nothing happens even after activating it. Has anybody enabled backlight on our phone?
[LG Optimus L90] AnalogReigns:
Nope...

On a rooted T-Mobile D415 the commands don't work. Even when I cd to what is definitely the SD card root (and twrp.img is listed in the ls command), it cannot find twrp.img. Something's weird on how T-Mobile has the internal storage configured, I figure....and I don't know the linux language to tell it different.

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 AM ----------

Hmmmm, I merely tranfered the twrp.img file to internal storage (since the command would obstinately NOT read the SD card) and poof......worked without a hitch. Didn't even delay a minute, as instructions warned....

Wondering if anyone ever flashed a international l9 kdz on their tmo l9 and did anyone happen? I'm thinking of flashing the d405 kdz on my phone. This knock code is making me wait like crazy. If someone would try flashing international kdz on their tmo l9 that would be great? And I believe there isn't any hardware differences right? So I should get any problems after flash but I'm a noon so I'm wondering if flash tool wouldnt let me flash because of the different model number?

[LG Optimus L90] LaDY Vengeance:
Well....the L9 has international variants like the P760 and P765. When you flash a kdz meant for either one of those, the screen becomes wonky.

And sometimes I get the feeling that LG eventually caught on to this and either denied sending unlock tokens, blacklisted American IMEI's or one theory is that a fuse gets blown which causes perma-locks.

[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
The L9 and L90 are NOT the same chipset. The L9 is an OMAP3440 chipset and the L90 is a MSM8226 ( if memory serves me ) chipset. The L9 utilizes a x-boot and u-boot partitions while the L90 utilizes an aboot partition. The L90 also has better than twice the number of partitions than the L9.
