[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Choristav:
Is it possible to unlock the bootloader?

I'm a sucker for AOSP, do you mean the camera has worse quality (as the stock has more options), or does it randomly stop working? Coming from an i9300 I thought this device would have all the necessary sources available for development, or is LG a bad company towards developers?

Also, is anyone compiling AOSP roms with linaro for this phone?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renosh:
I'll advise you to go for a Nexus 5, One Plus One or wait for something with tons of development for AOSP ROMs like the two I mentioned.

Also there is a risk of permanent black lines that happens to some G2 owners, its suspected that heat is the cause but if it happens to you while flashing you'll have to RMA the phone.

There is a workaround for the locked bootloader. The camera quality is worse on AOSP cause the drivers for the camera are closed source. Development on AOSP ROMs is slow. Best option is stick to stock or stock based ROMs
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ubejd:
thanks for asking this question my friend

i just wanted to add :

- how is the over all experience comparing it with samsung - htc devices , i have been using both of them for a while ( i dont like build material in samsung and update process with htc - i read that lg is making progress in this direction ).

- how does it feel after a while like the size,shape, build quality including overall performance .

im very close to buy one but im afraid a little bit - never owned an lg smartphone.

best regard from me
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
yes it does have a locked bootloader but that has not stopped us from getting recovery/roms/kernels/etc; we use a an exploit in the aboot to bypass the locked bootloader so there is nothing to worry about

none that I am aware of as a shipping device, but if you are an avid flasher(as in you love to constantly flash something new) than you need to be careful because there is permanent screen damage issue which you can read more about here

I am not sure which device(different g2 variants get different roms) you may be planning on getting but already have full official support and everything is working; although experience with aosp is not the best if you get use to the lg stock experience there are actually some great aosp roms(better experience than cm anyways)

you can check out the g2 help thread second post which I link some very useful threads(including info on backing up efs)

I came from an sgs 3 and in the family my parents always getting a Samsung in overall I prefer the look and feel of the g2 but the screen is one of my bad points, it is full glass and very easy to break so I suggest getting a case as a priority and as one of the members pointed out the lcd/digitizer are glued together and it is pretty much impossible to get them separated so replacing is tedious

I came from a generation of small devices since before the sgs3(biggest device I had prior to the g2) I had a lot small devices so getting used to a bigger device was little but difficult but rather quickly and the button placement/knock on and knock code is a great feature and before you know it you will be knocking on all your devices(I spent about a month like that)

build quality is okay for a plastic device it feels nice but it definitely needs a cover to maintain it safe

performance is great, I never experienced any lag; camera took some great pics(in the day because low light performance is bad) and after rooting and installing the modded camera you will enjoy all the improvements in day/low light scenarios; and I use the phone for lots of gaming specifically emulators, so I was able to average about 20 hours a day with heavy ppsspp usage so both performance and battery life are killer

these are all a point of view from a zombiepikachu who is a gamer and lg based roms user and my point of view/experience may differ from others
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Choristav:
Any roms I should look out for, then?

I'm looking for as AOSP-wise as possible, touchwiz left me a horrible taste and now I've seen this LG phone has this huge quick selection thing in the notification area.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
well for aosp many users like mahdi-rom but you can also check out the g2 original dev thread(basically everything aosp) like I mentioned I am a stock user so I don't really touch the aosp side of the g2

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zekurosu:

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ubejd:
hi

i just wanted to add that i bought the phone and im glad i did.

great battery life

the screen is great too

a great idea with knock code and power & volume buttons

camera quality could have been better

i just hope i dont get touch screen issues

even better being in xda-developers community

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Peppez92:
I have a similar problem on my p760. I followed this guide.

I got my phone succesfully updated to version V20H. Then in this post I followed the link for locked bootloader, but it re-linked me to a UNlocked bootloader guide. Now when I try to turn on the phone it says "SECURITY ERROR". I tried redo the update V20H but i got stuck at 4%. I can't go on hard reset mode. I used several guides, but they didn't work for me. Any help is appreciated. Sorry for my bad english :silly:

EDIT:

Nevermind. I went to sleep and this morning I tried this in normal flash and it worked.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minieod:
ok so:

i was trying out the new PAC build today, and i went into philz to wipe, and wiped the old OS and data. i accidentally hit reboot system, instead of installing a new os and then getting into it.

"no big deal" i thought. figuring i'd just boot into bootloader and get into recovery and then flash away

i seem to be stuck at the nvidia screen and cant get past that.

when i hold vol down and power, it just brings me to the nvidia screen with nothing to do there. using cmd i can:

adb devices: shows my serial and offline, makes sense

fastboot devices: does nothing and goes back to the command prompt

fastboot any command brings me to <waiting for devices>

my device manager shows "portable devices: shield tablet" and "android device: android composite adb interface"

anyone have any clue what i may have done....or what i can do? i am freaking out a little over here, thinking i may have bricked this thing
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gnurou:
Hold Volume down pressed, but release Power immediately after pressing it and you will enter the bootloader. When this succeeds you should never see the nvidia screen.

You need administrative privileges for fastboot command but not for adb. If you're using linux, make sure to do sudo fastboot; if you're in Windows, make sure you started command prompt with Administrative privileges. Hope that helps =)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
You have to get it back to stock but not up to date! You can use a Stock Rom Reset 2.24.111.3, this would put you back to stock. So you just need to follow the guide for the Guru Reset and you will be back to stock. If you want to apply the OTA fine but since you are returning it to TMO DE for repair they should be able to bring it up to date. I found some of the OTA at this site but there is a key one missing.

The command for s-on is fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 right ?

I rebooted phone by taking out battery, the same...Phone can't accept that update.

After that i tried hard reset and again...same thing.

Than i tried hard reset without installing "cm-10.1-20130503-NIGHTLY-cooper" and same...

Then i downloaded numerous of programs including Samsung Kies, connected my device on "download mode" and I saw installed drivers but it keeps searching for connection...lost like 5 god damn hours on this...couldnt find solution.

Forgot to say i rooted phone first. Before I tried to do this I had some swiss ROM i guess...Now cant find flash files for it. Dowloading just now when I m writing this some Polish firmware flash so i could flash phone over Odin...I hope I will do something.

If you try and flash recovery on top of KitSlim it will go into a bootloop. Have you checked that you still have root? possibly re-installing root might make a difference, but I doubt it.

[MOD][2.3+] XLDrawer - Replace "Holo" drawer icons with "Material" drawer icons (L)

This is an extremely simple module, which I highly recommend using with [MENTION=2940314]monish1995[/MENTION]'s Herathon​

It does three main things:

Replace the old drawer icon: with the new drawer icon from L:

Change the height of the actionbar on AppCompat and ActionBarSherlock apps to the L size

Changes the back icons to L style ones

It also provides a GUI to switch from dark to light icons on a per-app basis, as well as turn off the icon changing for apps you don't want theming

Essentially, it fills the gaps of the theme.
