you guys must find the correct key combo. the key combo did nothing on the lg ally until it was a custom recovery on device for us it would send key plus menu key plus power key

else use the command adb reboot recovery
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
Here is the output of Mount & DF.

no output when i have flashed the TEST file, but now i try again for a better test.

Thank you for your work ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
I use Quickboot apk after rooting the phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
Here is the recovery.log of the session with the test of flashing TEST.

After pressing search for confirmation of flash the phone return to menu with no info.

searching in recovery.log there are the messages i have seen but i don't see nothing on the result of flash, maybe you know what's wrong.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Please give me a adb shell in full android of

ls /dev/block/mmcblk*

also.

It seems that sdcard is not mmcblk0 and thats why flash failed and issues with mstoggle.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
something like this ?

# ls /dev/block/mmcblk*
ls /dev/block/mmcblk*
/dev/block/mmcblk0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Thanks. Can someone confirm this above was done booted in android and not in recovery?

This section from your init.thunderg.rc makes me think that sdcard might be mmcblk1

as this is for a partition 10 & 11 on mmcblk0 :

service rmt_storage /system/bin/rmt_storage /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 /dev/block/mmcblk0p11
user root
disabled

Else its making partitions on sdcard. Can someone check stock sdcard partitions with gparted under linux?

Ill be online in about 1hr about 9pm est. Join #opt1dev on freenode and ill see if we can get it working tonight.

edit: well it seems no one is on try this one.

Here is test3. Don't mess with mstoggle for now untill AFTER you have tried test flashing a zip.

Test3.zip
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Hi, I managed to install your zip now.

output:

Install from sdcard...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

Installing update...

Copying files...

Install from sdcard complete.

EDIT - oh, and I did a Nand backup but I dare not try to restore it unless you're positive it's completely safe ;)

EDIT2 - mounting is still wrong ;) I can't see anything in windows, and when I try to mount /sd-ext, I have to unmount /cache afterwards ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Thanks. I regards to edit2 you arent supposed to see those. Its to mount in shell as opposed to typing the commands mount system, mount /sdcard, mount data etc. Sdext is only if you partitioned for apps2sd so it shouldnt be there.

Sounds like its pretty much functional for the basics.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Looks like it. Thanks ;)

Do you know if there's a way to influence what the physical keys do while booted inside Android? (I'd like to get rid of the useless search key (both long-press and short-press), and instead use they key for something else (like call log, which I miss terribly on this phone)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Hi there,

With test2 I have successfully flashed that signed zip of yours, no errors.

Btw with test2, when I select move recovery.log to sd, it gives me errors back.

Anyway I'll try your test3 =)

Thanks for all your work
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Thanks alahkel.

Can you do a from terminal or shell:

ls /dev/block/mmcblk*

when booted in android for me.

Post a recovery log from test3 too after flashing the zip 1st and trying to mstoggle 2nd.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Test3:

Booting into recovery, I have no more bitmap indeterminate errors; I have E:bad boot message error only.

When I run "move recovery.log to SD" it tells me "Error: run 'log2sd' via adb"

So I do as above, via adb shell.

Results:

"/sbin/um: line 3: can't create /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file:

nonexistent directory

No sdcard found! "

Nandroid works anyway
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Ok I'm going to do ls command =)

I cannot post that recovery log, because of that error in recovery.. how to bypass it?

Thanks to you ^_^
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
From adb shell:

#ls /dev/block/mmcblk*
ls /dev/block/mmcblk*
/dev/block/mmcblk0
#

For recovery log, see post above =(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
Ok, I'm here again :)

i have flashed TEST3.

Flash TEST_FILE : OK !

# ls system/bin/test*
ls system/bin/test*
system/bin/test_diag
system/bin/test_flash_file

MOVE RECOVERY.LOG to SD : OK!

no error, uploaded.

MS-TOGGLE : KO !

after the message

USB-MS enabled!
Press Search to disable,
and return to menu

the phone dosent respond to any button and i have to take the battery.

this is with android home on :

# ls /dev/block/mmcblk*
ls /dev/block/mmcblk*
/dev/block/mmcblk0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Only one other thing, my SD card was formatted with my old Acer Liquid, maybe this is important (i dont remember if i have a partition ext2 for app2sd)h
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Something is wierd with the sdcard mass_storage for this phone

from adb shell do a:

su

cd /sys/devices/platform/

ls

look for usb_mass_storage. If it exists

cd usb_mass_storage

ls

then if exists

cd lun0

ls

cd ..

cd lun1

ls

cd ..

cd lun2

ls

Give me the outputs of lun0, lun1, and lun2 if they exist
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
What about my move recovery.log to sd problem? Am I doing something wrong?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
usb_mass_storage exists but here is the files in :

# cd usb_mass_storage

cd usb_mass_storage

# ls

ls

uevent

modalias

subsystem

power
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Nope LG changed some stuff with usb mass storage apparently. The usual command doesn't work as the files don't exist and thats why it locks/bugs phone when you attempt mstoggle to mount sdcard. Everything else should be fully working in recovery though.

can you look for lun0 in another location in /sys/devices/platform/ directory maybe in musb_hdrc/gadget or msm_hsusb/gadget

Using root explorer app would be ideal for this
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
Root explorer found nothing like lun0 or lun* . :confused: ... i'm still searching ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Its a folder/directory search function in root explorer wont find you will need to manually use it to browse directories.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
OK, now i understand ..

i find only lun0 in

msm_hsusb/gadget

this is the ls of lun0:

uevent

power

file

I cant find musb_hdrc/gadget in /sys/devices/platform/
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Excellent. Thats what I needed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Ok try this from adb shell in recovery to see of it mounts sdcard as mass storage:

echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/gadget/lun0/file

This will disable

echo "" > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/gadget/lun0/file
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
YESSSSS ! you rock !! ;)

Now it work.

Great job.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
It worked for me too =) No output on recovery screen, but I find removable usb with sd content :D

Thanks, you're awesome! =)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
This is RC1 of thunderg custom recovery.

If all tests ok this will be identical to full release.

Please test features in this order and report:

1. Successful backup & restore of nandroid (note battery must be greater than 30% to restore a nandroid)

2. Success on wipe of data, cache

3. Success on mstoggle usb storage

4. Flashing a rom -- Make sure you have a nandroid backup of current stock 1st and store another copy of it on pc for safe keeping

(you can make a custom with dsixda kitchen and the boot.img and system.img from your nandroid and wipe data/cache before flashing)

5. Once you have this recovery on device please try key combos to boot it with phone off. Key combos did nothing on ally till it had a custom recovery. Key combo was hold power + menu + send and release once the lg splash appears. As keys are different it will take some experimenting. Try vol up + power , vol down + power, menu + power+ home, etc.

Other features such as sd card partitoning for apps2sd should be working fine and only need to be tested if someone wants to make an apps2sd rom.

MD5sum = 1a27ab5130de06e04d58e77c1bb92f30

Download RC1 zip

If all checks are ok this will be last post here and will move to its own dedicated thread. Thanks for your hard work helping me test and debug this without a device. The testers have been excellent.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
I'm downloading your rc1. I'm going to test things your asked for but..

is nandroid restore safe? I'm a little bit reluctant on trying a restore since opt1 doesn't have a fastboot -> what to do if something goes wrong and cell's bricked?

With fastboot and a rom image we could restore stock rom, without it... we could use recovery only.. and then wait for you to fix restore?

Mmm... Ok... I'll try anyway xD

Sorry, I was writing without thinking xD

Thanks for all your hard work! =)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Mmmm after selecting toggle usb mass storage, it succesfully enables it (I can browse sd card content by my pc as rem storage) but controls and screen freeze on optimus one. Maybe it needs just a few adjustments =)

Going to try restore... ç_ç
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Thanks for doing this. Currently don't have the time to test (what with real life and kids and all) but will try asap ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Wipe succesfull =)

Now I'm going to try nandroid restore... wish me luck çç
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Restore gives me problems:

Via recovery on device, selecting "restore" and then selecting which backup I'd like

to restore, it tells me to run nandroid-mobile.sh via adb.

It was the same with test2, on back up and, as I said before, running nandroid via adb it was working (talking about back up only).

Here when I select via adb the back up to restore, it gives me this output back:

Error: unable to mount /sdcard, aborting

=(

Backup is fully working via device, instead.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
2 things may be causing restore to say run via adb. If battery is less than 30% nandroid script gives that error. Also if you did usb mass storage that session since its still not 100% it may have errored umounting sd and nandroid may not be able to access sdcard.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
I'm testing the new RC1 and here the first results :

1. Successful backup & restore of nandroid

backup OK

restore OK (no error at all)

reboot after restore ... all working

2. Success on wipe of data, cache

wipe cache ... no errors

wipe data/factory restore ... no error

reboot after ... OK (factory restore done)

3. Success on mstoggle usb storage

pressing SEARCH button the PC see the SD CARD and all the file in it, but ther is no way to go back to recovery menu, i have to take the battery because no button seem to work.

Point 4 & 5

next.

Little notes ...

- the message "E:Bad boot message" is still present

- in many submenu there are messages using "VOL-DOWN to return" instead of "BACK"

when i can finish my tests, i will give feedbacks.

till then, GREAT WORK !!! :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Battery was always >30% (60%+) and I made a wipe before each restore attempt, no usb mass storage attempt in same nandroid attempt session.

I'll try to reflash recovery.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
Ok try this one. I changed a few things that might have caused alahkel to have issues but not fughy. I have mass storage fixed this time finally (was a stupid typo on exit key) alahkel you might want to try a fresh format of sdcard too as you not having a mmcblk0p1 might be your issue.

RC2
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Thanks for the rc2, I'm going to flash and test it now.

About sdcard, I think you're right, I'll format sdcard and retry.

Thank you again :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ocyrion:
This is all awesome, I've been watching the last few days and am keen to get nandroid working. I'm going to see what happens over the next couple of days and then try your recovery image out.

I'm just wondering though, I bought my phone in Australia so it's 3G/GSM, does the recovery image have any effect on this? I'm a super-noob with Android phones and don't want to lunch it :-)

I'm wondering if this phone will take the Android 2.3/3.0 upgrade when it comes out as well ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
A would like to help you with testing, but, when I read all this posts, it was scared me too much. :eek: So I want just wish "good luck" for all of you. :D

And little question. I found How-to make full backup of android. Their using ROM Manager app for this, but whena I try to use "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery, there is no mobile, that I have. (jus only Hyawei Pulse mini, Dell Streak, Huawei Pulse and so on.) What are you using for make full beckup of system? And some how-to will be also fine :p

I have customized Vodafone FW and I would like to replace this with LG original one (becouse of their possible updates), but I don't want screw up it. :o
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Changed sdcard, now backup&restore works great.

Now the "move recovery log to sd" works as well :D

Usb Mass Storage Toggle:

Now when you select this option, on device's screen it says it's enabled and when you press search key to go back to main menu, it works.. but.. now UMS is not actually enabled =(

There's no "removable usb storage".

However I think we're just closer to the solution xD

Thank you again =)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ocyrion:
That's the same message I'm getting with Clockworkmod. That's why drellisdee and the people in this thread are organising a flash recovery. I'm looking forward to the final version :-)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
Ohhh, finally I know what they are trying to do... It wasn't too much clear for me before. Thank you ;-)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
In the meanwhile I'm trying to create my own custom rom =)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
here I'm again.

We have it!

my last test was Flashing a custom ROM ... and it works!

After cooking my custom ROM with my boot.img & system.img i have flashed it.

Everything works great.

Now we need someone cooking real custom ROM for our phone.

I'm searching the combination for enter in recovery mode, but i don't find till now.

there is only a vol-up + back + power that put the phone in EMERGENCY mode with a yellow screen and the pc feel the phone connected like some commands could be sended for some reason, but not tested.

At the end ... we are near to the first recovery for O1 ... GREAT WORK guys.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alahkel:
Combination key for recovery from turned off phone is:

hold down home, vol+, power

til you see booting into recovery.

^^

Fughy, does it work UMS toggle for ya?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fughy:
Installing RC2 UMS don't toggle for me too.

Edit :

UMS Work great !

I try with quick boot and the USB cable connected to the PC from the beginning and now it work well.

When it don't work i'm not able to see the disk in Windows, when it work i can see the disk.

LG Optimus One P500 - not starting

I have rooted my phone and deleted all the apps in /system/app/

I thought that when I do a restore factory defaults it would place everything back but that's not the case.

I restarted my phone it shows LG logo, LG splash, then ANDROID loading... and that's it. Stuck!

Tried hard reset by pressing HOME+VOLUMEDOWN+POWER it somewhat doing a restore but when phone started it hangs on ANDROID loading.

Anybody encountered this kind of a problem? Please help and I will appreciate it.

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kite86:
Had the same problem.

I rooted my phone and deleted some apps like lg launcher and such

I did a reset but it stucked at first wizard screen giving me an error. Only thing i could do was to remove battery, but then it stucked at android logo..

I don't want to show off my noobishness too much, but what are the steps to flashing drellisdee's recovery ROM? I've read tons on the net but I'm still a bit confused... I have the Android SDK installed but other than that I'm not too sure what to do next.

Just planning on a backup at the moment, but I'm interested in installing an alternative kernel that allows me to overclock the processor. What are the recommendations for kernels for this phone?

UMS toggle doesn't seem to be working for me (I'm using the version you (?) posted on Androidforums, I'm guessing that was you since you thanked the guys who've been testing in this thread).

I should add that my sd card is formatted with a swap partition and a normal partition (need the swap partition for GAOSP, performance is abysmal without it)

I'll attach my logs.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] drellisdee:
with the extra part for swap try this and post feedback in android forums post.

If I do the factory reset in the settings in the app menu, will it still return the phone to the same as it was when I bought it?

Which kernel works/is good for this phone so I can do some overclocking?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] daganb:
Consider me high on the list for the stupidest user as well. I own a USA tmobile p509 (optimus t) that upon power on would just be stuck on the LG logo. Phone was unable to get to recovery mode and could only boot to emergency mode. After many different ways of attacking the problem biggest issue was that the LGMobile suite of programs did not have the recovery image available. Next step was playing around with the KDZ program, again no p509 kdz files available. I talked myself into flashing a european KDZ rom in CS_EMERGENCY mode. Now the phone will not turn on. 99.9% sure its toast without a JTAG now.

I own my own electronics repair shop, I took a gamble on this phone buying it from someone that messed up a rooting. My income is mostly cell phone repair and reflashing, however I am pretty shocked at the way LG is approaching the smartphone market. To update your phone the LG software must run at boot (on windows)? Why? Its really sloppy implementation compared to reflashing / recovering Motorola / HTC or Apple products.

99.9% sure its bricked, but it annoys me looking at the phone knowing its a simple flash away from brand new.

Hi All,

Hopefully a quick one for you. I have recently installed cyanogen 6.0.2.1 and I'm loving it so far.

However one thing I'm missing is the notification of unread messages on the message icon.

I have the "messages" shortcut added to my ADW bar, and when I receive a new message I was expecting it to have a little (1) next to it like some of the other OS I've tried.

Been through the options and can't seem to find anything, is there a way to add this functionality?

Thanks in advance for any help :)

[Wildfire Android Development] atkinchris:
I've had my Wildfire since a few days before the UK release (a lucky call to T-Mo one morning!) and generally I quite like it.

However, I can't break 1.5 MFLOPS on Linpack, no matter what I try.

I normally run WildPuzzleROM 7.3.1, on a stock kernel. This gets me at best, 1.3. So I tried a few different flavours of Froyo; WildPuzzle, Cyanogen and Openfire. At each point, I've tried the stock kernel as cooked with the ROM, and also HCDR.Jacob's kernel. I've installed SetCPU each time, trying it on performance and standard, even with both the sliders pushed right up. I've done the tests before installing any other apps I use, and without any installs, downloads, etc, going in the background.

And despite all of this, I cannot break 1.5.

Am I expecting too much from the Wildfire? Or is there something wrong with my device on a hardware level?

Any help would be appreciated.

Chris

As before, I AM using a non-stock ROM, and have tried a few different non-stock kernels, including pre-overclocked and ones overclocked using SetCPU.
