[Q] A guide for noobs for going from stock P769 Optimus L9 to Cyanogenmod? - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

Hey, sorry if this is the wrong section/wrong etiquette/wrong me. All the information on rooting and flashing and everything for this device seems to be scattered all over the place, any chance someone could make a guide on everything I should do to go from a stock, unrooted Jelly Bean T-Mobile P769 to having Cyanogenmod installed?
Thanks a whole lot.

Yes I was going to make another one tomorrow because the one I had I don't really like mainly because I have no pictures, so I'm going to make another one because I'm going to root my p769 because I bricked the one I had before so tomorrow you should see one

You're gonna have to unlock your boot loader first in order to flash cm 10.1. Which is a very complicated process.

I was goiong to try doing this on my own tonight but I'll wait for the noob guide

This is the first page to root your phone. Read through it and get a full understanding before trying. It's not hard but it's not super easy either. Good luck.

[Q] root issues

Hello guys, well today I updated my phone from android 1.6 to 2.1 via the SEUS. I tried to root my device but failed in vain. I tried out the z4 root 1.30 but that didn't work either. I am a bit agreeably using the flash method. Is there any workable alternative to get my cell rooted?i would prefer a single click approach.
Thanks
In a nut shell, no. You need to flash back to 504 firmware and start from there, as said on AF.
Flash and debrand with THIS, install THIS, then THIS, and you'll have an up to date, debranded and rooted X10.

To be frank I really have no idea about flash. I have heard that it is very risky. If something goes wrong then the device ends up getting bricked.

So long as you read the first post and browse the first few pages you'll be alright. X10 is pretty much unbrickable right now so get reading and give it a go.
Well okay, I will give it a shot. Will tell you about the progress. Thanks for the help:-D. Btw are you also there in phandroid?

my x10 flasher is getting downloaded. Before i start the process, i wanted to ask you whether by flashing will my xperia get rooted? because for custom xperia recovery to work they mention that they NEED a ROOTED device. also they need an app called the busy box.
what should i do?
Is there any video tut regarding the procedure? I downloaded all the things necessary for the procedure.

Hi ,
Congrats to you for getting a new rom . Actually I am also in the same boat as yours.
I read the instructions for root and installing the twrp and i think i can take the plunge.
However if you can guide how to install custom rom compatible with this twrp, that would be really helpful
Do i need to flash bootloader as well to install the custom rom
Would be great if you can point me to some instructions

You should find full information on compatibility in the first post of each ROM's development thread. If there is something you don't understand then ask there. You don't supply any information on which bootloader you have. You can double check from the position of the nvidia logo on startup: bottom middle = ICS, bottom right = JB.
If you are new to all this I would recommend you do a lot of reading before attempting anything and make your first custom ROM one that offers the best support. When you have chosen, spend as long as it takes to read and understand everything in the thread. Good luck :good:.
Thanks a lot for the advice
I am stock 4.1.1 jb, can you please let me know which custom rom would be the best to start with

Really you should follow an xda guide, no point in linking to another site....if you have a query about their method you should address them, I can guarantee their method is copy/paste or rewrite of an xda post anyway.

Hi there,
You might want to check out samsung galaxy III toolkit here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488.
It is a fairly easy to understand command tool which will root your phone and also install custom recovery (which is essential IMO if you want to try different ROMs later on).

Stock recovery for 3.42.502.1

since lollipop dropped today, I want to update. When I go into the download process all goes well, but when it starts flashing it, the progress bar lights up, starts going, then goes away and I'd get the red triangle. At which point I restast and it says it failed, try again later. I'm wondering if my recovery isn't up to date, but I can't find one for 3.42.502.1. If someone can upload or link me one I'd be grateful. Thanks in advance,
-John
