I assume you are stuck in a bootloop like me after applying the latest firmware update on a rooted MS323...

Are you able to get into download/upload mode? I can only get mine to the factory reset menu, but it never resets. I'm sure there is a way to restore this thing... it's just a toy for my kid, but I really don't want to throw it away.

Found this (for the firmware):

If you need LG Drivers:

http://www.lg.com/us/lgeai/drivers

Here is the write-up, so that we have it on this forum:

First, make sure you can access Download Mode.

Turn off the device, then hold Volume Up and plug in your USB cable, continuing to hold Volume Up until it enters Download Mode.

You should be in Download Mode before starting the process.

1. Download LG Flash Tool here: http://d-h.st/Fph

2. Download MS323 Firmware here: https://mega.nz/#!DsR3ALBZ!672_QhBjj0DZUJkflcE3EJU2GxkoKoxgmjRMUBxRDjo

3. Extract the LG Flash Tool, and copy the MS323 Firmware into the same directory

4. Open LGFlashTool2014.exe, for 'Select Type' choose 3GQCT. For 'PhoneMode' select EMERGENCY. Then go down to Select KDZ file and find the MS323 Firmware file (MS32310b_00.kdz)

5. Click Normal Flash

6. In the next window, click Start

7. In the country and language window, just click OK

8. A new window will open and the progress bar on your device will begin moving. After it complete it should reboot and you're done.

You can try calling Metro PCS to get it, but they wouldn't give me one because I was not their customer (biught the phone from one).

I ended up buying an unlock code from UnlockFusion... keep in mind though, they will give you 5 unlock codes, and you will only need one of them and you have to make sure to use the right one in the right place. It's been a long time since I did it, but I came close to locking up the phone.

Why do I think its a useless launcher? Feature-wise, there are better. I just did not like it. (I'm an ADW fan, personally.)

Also, I know that the MetroWEB browser was just the stock browser. However, it is not necessary anymore, as its no longer linked to the PlayStore. Therefore, it can be uninstalled/deleted and replaced with a browser of your choice. (Chrome, Opera, etc...) Even if you "freeze" an app, the data is still there on your internal storage. Why keep useless apps that cannot be moved with Link2SD and just sit there taking up space while frozen? Makes no sense. Just delete it. (I do recommend freezing an app before you delete it though, so that you can test whether or not the app is absolutely necessary!)

Also, for those of you who cannot figure out Link2SD, I wrote up a more in-depth "HowTo" on Unleashed Prepaids. You can take a look at it here:

you dont really need link2sd app for lg l70 ms323

I found this guide on the net and hope it would help you guys out,

How to enter LG L70 MS323 recovery mode? How to put your LG Optimus L70 into recovery mode?

[Update] The LG L70 on metroPCS has a locked boot loader, So you can not boot the ms323 into recovery mode with the ADB tool.

What is needed:

1) Install LG drivers Ver 3.10 if you still didn’t.

2) Install Android SDK Tools

or Just download the lite ADB tools [ADB.rar]and unpack it somewhere: (e.g. C:/ADB/ )

Step 1- You need to enable USB debugging mode:

Go Settings – General – Developer options – USB debugging.

If you don’t see it: Settings – General – About phone – Common – Software info – click 5-10 times on Build number.

Spte 2- Connect your phone to computer.

Step 4- Navigate to android-sdk-windowsplatform-tools directory (The directory where you unpacked the Android SDK Tool) and open Command Prompt (Shift + Right-click anywhere in the folder > Open Command Prompt.

In the command prompt window, Type in the following command and press Enter.

adb devices

You should see the “List of devices attached”, if your handset is connected to PC successful.

Now, You are ready to boot your LG L70 MS323 into recovery mode,

Type in the following command and press Enter.

adb reboot recovery

Step 5 – Your LG L70 MS323 will turn OFF and then boot into the Recovery Mode. Navigate up and down using the volume keys.

Short answer: no.

We need to find an exploit to bypass the bootloader lock before we can begin working on custom recovery or a kernel.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogeshsr:
I don't think 64gb is supported.what you can try is, format the sd card and create one 32gb and other unallocated partition. If the card is detected, create partition in the unallocated one.

usb debugging

I'm pretty sure somebody already covered this.... but if you look in your normal settings there is no "Developer Options" to where you can "Enable USB Debugging". Earlier today I was messing around in the hidden menu and was able to find ENABLE USB DEBUGGING....now it's my understanding that this is needed in order to install a custom recovery,Rom,etc. judging from forums about other phones..... I was also able to make the display stay at 100% brightness(or whatever brightness you choose) without it dimming down to 80% "due to temperature increase." My job requires me to work outside in the sun and when the phone automatically dimmed it pissed me off....so I'm happy now that I got both of those things figured out and will continue to look through the hidden menu to see if I can find any other info......

I just rooted the phone with the towelroot method then installed root checker to make sure it worked right but got the error message. Rebooted the phone and checked again and I was good to go. Installed supersu and updated the su binaries. Now just trying to figure out what "bloat" apps I can delete to free up space then I might try the link2sd once I get a 64GB and partition it out to where it's got 32GB and then whatever is left over so I can still have all my music and download more games or what ever....with that being said....
