hello

Can u show me how to root my lg f200k kitkat 4.4.2? Thanks for reply
[Android General] enkhtwshn:
Well there is not much.

You have root and install recovery for 4.1.2 (downgrade if you are on 4.4.2) then install the zip that has root and recovery

Here is the link

If you are not interested in recovery thanks to geohot there is an tethered root called towelroot and just click the lyambda ICON.

To activate the root just

open the app

make it ra1n

download superuser from any market

use rooted application (grant root premission)

after reboot root will be gone so you will make it rain again

Xposed and other root applications are working flawelessy

Is the stock ROM fully English?

I have a LG Optimus Vu II (F200L), which came with a weird firmware that has a lot of stuff in korean. Now I'm not sure if this is the official ROM or not. :confused: But it doesn't seem very "OFFICIAL" to me and I think it's already rooted (that's weird cause I've never seen a brand new phone which comes pre-rooted). I played around with the settings a lot, to change the language to english completely, but some of the things still come in korean. This is a pretty good phone but the weird korean stuff ruins it. :(

So, my question is, does the official stock firmware (for which you gave the links in the first post) have everything in english? I don't want any root or custom ROMS or anything. I just want a full english language interface. :D

And which method should I use for flashing? The first one seems quite simple, but will it work if I'm flashing a stock ROM over a custom rooted one?

EDIT: I tried using the first method to flash the .kdz file onto my Vu II, after connecting it to my PC in download mode, but half-way through the flashing process, it gives an error "Connection to server failed. Try again in a moment." This happened 4 times. Any suggestions?

EDIT AGAIN: Managed to flash the ROM successfully, just had to disconnect from the internet haha. But ah! Even this is partly Korean! :( So, I guess there is no international version of the official ROM for this phone? Oh well, time to get rid of it.
[Android General] soyuz4u:
try the korean sites

try the korean sites for custom roms and stuff. just google for vu2 sonyue or vu2 lgviet.

these sites have quite a few roms for this handset. all u have to translate the pages to english. also u have to be fluent with the flashing process.

pm me if u want to know more.

But theres no CWM for 4.4.2 and i dont know how to downgrade
[Android General] taufeeq91:
First you have to downgrade the phone with F200 stock jellybean rom then root it and install custom recovery only then you can stall more custom roms or rom which i had posted above. I know its very tricky to root this phone even i took couple of weeks to get it ith custom recovery. the rom i posted above is one of the finest rom, I have tried many kikat and lolipop roms for this phone but didnt got any luck with them some have bugs like force close in an third party app some having battery drain issues even some has bug that you can never turn off data.
