Dsixda kitchen - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been playing around with the kitchen on my Ubuntu machine(64 bit version 10.04) since I'm new to it I've basically only delved into some debloat and deodexing/root stuff for the new ruu. I get a bootloop when I flash the rom I made and can't get past splash screen. Is there something special I need to do for thunderbolt/mecha to make it boot?? Anybody? ?

Liberated rom is 2.1 HTC sense with sideloading already enabled as well as tons of other cool features. Just flash it thru clockwork recovery. If you need quick help, hop into the irc.

if you still see the Samsung splash, you need to odin the gingerbread bootloaders.. Then you will see the glitch splash. I'm not sure how to customize that.. So I'll step aside and let someone else answer

[RECOVERY] CWM 6 Alpha Touch recovery

Koush is giving the world access to his buildbot to test out the new version of CWM. So I decided to give it a whirl. Offers incremental backups making them much smaller and faster.
This is for ICS ROMS only
*please note that I know that I am NOT a real dev. I just figured out how to run his buildbot and got it working on my phone.
Build Details
Download Recovery
*usual disclaimer that I am not responsible for you bricking your phone*
To install
1. Download file to your computer
2. In command line, navigate to the folder you have the recovery
3. Reboot phone into fastboot
4. "fastboot flash recovery recovery-CWM-6.0.0.0-ruby.img"
5. "fastboot reboot"
6. Reboot Phone into recovery as normal
Anyone test it as yet other than you? Would be cool to see this in action, good post, many of those who wanted CWM will love you for it, lol.
As far as I could tel I was the first to build a ruby version. I just pulled the 5.0.2.8 CWM and used that as a base and had it build a touch version. I tried getting it to use the stock recovery but the only one I could find was from the all-in-one toolkit and it built, but the recovery had trouble mounting points so I didn't upload it here.
I've always been a fan of CWM but that's prolly mostly because that's what I familiar with. I've used it since my G1.
So it can flash kernels???
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using Tapatalk 2
It was built off of 5.0.2.8 so I would have to guess that you would have to be S-OFF to flash kernels. I am S-OFF and am the only one I know of running it.
Why is it only able to flash ics roms?

This is based off of Koush's new 6.0 CWM. It has incremental backups instead of the doing the entire ROM each time. That is the biggest advantage to me.

FINALLY, A FRICKING RECOVERY THAT JUST WORKS.
Jesus, I tried every recovery I could find.
I'm not mentally impaired, so I do understand (and preffer) to use fastboot, and all other recoveries either required a download of an app to do the work for you or they just plain wouldn't boot (I'm looking at you, EXT4 touch binary...)
Plus it's well documented and it's a real developer friendly recovery, not so user oriented. I love it.

or you can just flash the 4EXT recovery image from my toolkit. That is another way. 4EXT wants the app installed so it can tell you about updates and let it update by itself.

[Stock Firmware] Sep 29 2012 Stock ATT Firmware (TOT File)

Howdy y'all!
So, special thanks to user "sextape" for providing this, I'm just mirroring it just incase LG decides to change the link, or lock us out.
This is the Stock Shipping Firmware, LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012+0
You need the DLL files, and LGNPST 2.2.3 to flash this. If you need that, hop on the IRC channel ( #lg-optimus-g ) and ask for it.
http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg/att/firmware
I will post the latest firmwares as they are available to this link.
EDIT: Heh, well, it looks like LG took down the firmware from their CSMG server. Get it while it's hot!
EDIT2: Whoops, my server's got a problem with the plus sign in the download link.. Give me a few while I get that sorted...
EDIT3: Alright, that's fixed. Sorry about that...
well now we can have some cooks go in and start tweaking and debloating this firmware so we can upload it to our devices... next best thing besides a fresh ROM

Why do I have the feeling I'll be losing a lot of money to you?!?! You're everywhere man! Thanks for the help and support. I'm going to try and learn how to debloat and so forth, now that this phone is looking promising. I always just grabbed other people's roms, but this should be fun with the S4 Pro!!
Ok so I have a 'tester' Optimus G for AT&T. It was given to us about 1 month ago to test certain Software on. So I wanted to try and get the 'official' firmware/build/etc. over to the test unit, to make it as identical to the released version as possible. The hardware is most likely identical.
The test unit though has the same Android version, Baseband version, Kernel version, Build number (IMM76L), the only difference is the Software version. The test unit is E97009j but the official unit is E97010o. The LGMobile Support tool reports the test unit as model LGE970 Version E97009J and the official unit as Model LGE970 Version E97010O
LGMobile support tool doesn't report any updates available for either unit. So any idea what SW version entails? Any idea on how to get the test unit in sync with the official release? I was trying the official LG route but that doesn't work. I don't think AT&T has released any official images for this phone. I was thinking of a nandroid backup using CWM but the CWM in this forum (only 2 posts in Rom development??) doesn't have any instructions for installing it and it's only temporary. I was thinking of flashing this Stock ATT Firmware posted here but it requires me to go to IRC and ask for some files but when I did nobody answered. I'm coming from the HTC and Samsung world. In Samsung's world I'd just use Odin to flash a stock image which includes modem, bootloader, recovery, etc. the whole package. But not sure about LG's world. Maybe I should just root both units and go in there and dd the relevant partitions from the stock unit to an image file and then restore those images to the same partitions on the test unit. But which partition numbers are "relevant"?

You don't to "use" it, just log in to the #lg-optimus-g channel (login just requires a screen name, channel and enter reCAPTCHA, but no SW install or requesting an account). Then wait 5-10 min and someone will ask for the files, which will be followed by a posting of the link.

I appreciate that. I tried downloading the OP version several times unsuccessfully. I need to have that if I am going to go to work on something for this phone. I think there's a world of theming potential as well as the custom ROM goodness.

IIRC, OP and IRC are the same file and location. I know that IRC was having some download speed issues last night, so that may be what you ran into. Have you tried to download from the OP link, this morning?

Actually it looks like this kernel did support custom boot animations out of the box. If you want to test, go to system/media and copy your stock boot animation. Then push a custom one and set permissions rw-r-r and reboot. I just needed a kernel that was stock with init.d and adb remount so I can make changes like deodexing and customizing apps then reodexing and pushing back apks

I've already created my custom boot Ani, thanks! I put it in the themes section for anyone who wants it. Works like a charm. My only gripe is that i can't use my boot animation installer because it says that's a read only file (system /media) Didn't have that issue with my other phone. Could that be caused by the kernel? Oh well, I'll do it manually for now. Keep up the great work!

[Q] Requesting Help With Bootlooping E970

Hey guys. I am not from around here. You will normally find me hanging out in the Nexus forums. I need some help trying to correct an issue my noob buddy caused on his E970. He brought it to me today in a boot loop and apparently he rooted it an uninstalled some GAPPS and now he has this security error and BL. Now, so far I have managed to install the drivers..... that's it. I have worked on a variety of different devices but I am really having trouble with this. I think the issue is I can not find a thread that is comprehensive enough to explain what alot of the different tools are and what they do. I mean there is
1. LGNPST
2. Teenybin
3. Freegee or something like that
Then there about 14 different file types depending on the tool you are using. I have seen;
1. dll
2. bin
3. kdz
4. tot
I have to be honest with you guys this is confusing as hell. I keep coming across dead links and old downloads and stuff that may not work. I REALLY don't like using stuff not linked from XDA as that is all I've known for many years (not to say other sites aren't reputable but you never know) I can follow instructions and figure out most stuff on my own but due to the in completion of alot of this stuff and dead links I am kinda stuck I am gonna give it another go tomorrow but in the meantime if someone wants to drop me a link or word of advice as to where to at least start it would be awesome. I am pretty handy generally with this kind of thing but I guess that goes to show you sometimes you are only as good as the tools and directions you are working with. Thanks XDA Community! :good:
Okay the first three.
3.lgnpst is the program you will need to use to fix the security error which was caused by removing bloat without unlocking bootloader.
2.teenybin is used with lgnpst to unlock bootloader, update partitions to jb, and install recovery. It doesn't install firmware but could be used to restore if a rom was copied to sd to flash.
3.freegee is used to unlock bootloader and install recovery on a working phone.
Next four.
1.dll are files needed by windows.
2.bin is the extension the file needs to be for using lgnpst.
3.kdz is stock firmware for use with lgflashtool (used mainly for international phones)
4.tot is the extension the stock firmware is released with which will be renamed to bin before using lgnpst.
In the additional info section of teenbin thread there is a click to show content button that will have have links and guide for lgnpst. Use the tSilenzio version and it will register the DLL files on install.

Thank you. This is exactly what I needed. Someone just to say "these are what these things are and what they do". I do have to admit I don't fault my buddy too much for soft bricking this thing as of all the devices I've rooted or flashed to this seems the most confusing. And also it's very odd that if you remove BW without first unlocking the bootloader you get this error..... Why can't they all just be as easy as a Nexus? Lol.

Well its especially difficult when someone just brings you a phone and you've never even seen it booted up and you don't know all the weird quirky rules it has (like if you uninstall GAPPS without unlocking the bootloader then you get a bootloop.) lol Otherwise it seems like a solid phone. It has almost the same specs as my Nexus 4.

Yes, once you're unlocked & rooted you will be good to go. I would recommend flashing an established rom and installing the GApps that are recommended. It would be a lot more convenient and less of a hassle.
Make sure you are using TWRP, CWM was causing bugs with flashing of some roms. Hope this helps.

Awesome and once I've flashed a good rom. Would that then circumvent any future boatloads caused by modifications etc.? So in other words are those proprietary (catches) cooked out when the devs set up a rom? I would imagine so. I know most of us folks hate that kinda thing... Lol
BTW any tips on a good solid stable Jelly Bean Rom? Would want it to be pretty stable since it's not my phone... Lol

Hey thanks again everyone! Got the phone fixed. A stock AT&T 4.1.2 Rom on there and root privileges intact. Everything is good to go. I actually kinda like the phone a lot.... I really want an LG G2..... Oooh yeah... Thanks again everyone and maybe some one will find the instructions in this thread helpful.
