L9(P765) Social+ Widget Lost after V10G OTA - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

Hey guys, the thread title should be self explanatory enough but let me provide some more details.
I have the L9 P765(India), I recently updated it to V10G via OTA and then I lost the Social+ widget, its not in my homescreen, not in my installed apps, not even my widgets menu, nowhere, it just disappeared, poof
Now I love this widget and I need your help, do you have it on your L9 after V10G update?
If not is there any place I can find it on XDA?
And are there any similar app available on play store?
PS: My phone had not been modified in anyway, never rooted, never flashed, nothing.

i just bought my p769 a few weeks ago. V10G out of the box. i'm rooted, and was uninstalling bloatware earlier, and i believe i saw that app and removed it.
what i might be able to do is, factory reset my phone. then i'll have it back on. then, since i have root, i'll try to copy the apk and see if you can sideload it.

[SOLVED!!!] Club of users stuck on Unrootable P769-V10G. [ROOT V10G NOW POSSIBLE]

NEWSFLASH: Rooting V10G P769 is possible now... visit this page
***All following information was true upto 2-March-2013 only before new Root Method arrived. lolz
---------------------------------------------------------------
Lolz.:laugh: Title says it all. I am just curious to know how many of you are stuck on Unrooted P769V10G?
Facts+Observations (till post update date)
P769 V10E is ROOTABLE
P769 V10G is NOT ROOTABLE
P769 V11A Wind Mobile is also NOT ROOTABLE
Some were on Rooted P769 V10E and accidentally or unknowingly they updated (in sleep) to V10G and lost Root and now stuck on it.
Once on UNROOTED V10G, you CANNOT REVERT BACK to V10E or previous roms (if any). Some people tried but they got some weird results.
Once on V10G you can flash "V11A Wind Mobile" kdz but that also CANNOT BE ROOTED.
.
WARNING: DO NOT FLASH OTHER KDZ FROM P768/P765/P760 ON P769 AS THE HARDWARE IS NOT FULLY COMPATIBLE AND YOU MAY PARTIALLY OR PERMANENTLY BRICK THE PHONE.

Please tell us what exactly happened when you try to flash old versions V10E or V10A? Where does it stop? Any details? If you share your experiences, someone may find some solution from here or from elsewhere. Asking all pals to add your names and share your ideas and workarounds.
Maybe something good comes out of discussion and sharing of information.
Not kidding...
I read somewhere on L9 threads that once upgrading to 10g or 10h, you can't go back to 10a, is this problem only on P769? because it's possible to downgrade down to 10a from 10h on P760. but... with some little troubles
you see after downgrading to 10a i coudn't even type my simcard pincode, because the phone was horribly slow!
i had to soft reset (power button + home key + volume up) after resetting it was allright but a new problem here after resetting.... i lost everything, LUCKILY i setup LG's backup tool to backup everything twice a week, so restoring with this app is a life savior i tell you, it even restore settings, downloaded apps, homescreen settings and widgets, everything!

Not sure but I heard you could KDZ back to older version. So not sure what happened.

Good information and great suggestion. Thanks a lot. But there is no problem for P760/P765/P768 at all. Pals are flashing any roms anytime.
The problem listed and to discussed here is about P769, the variant which is intentionally made rigid by US Carriers. More information will be appreciated. Anyone?
IS there anyone who tried flashing P760V10A rom on P769? Just for time being, then it can be rooted and then CWM backup of P769 can be flashed. Well I am not sure this will work, and not asking anyone to do it.
Just asking if anyone tried this way before or not?
Flashed the full 10g kdz, so there was no way possible for me to keep root. And yes, I'm fully aware that I'm an idiot.
Looks like cgigate tried flashing with bad results
Don't want to mess with it to much now, going on vacation this week and don't have a backup 4G phone.
I almost had a heart attack when my phone was upgrading. How fortunate I was to have installed Voodoo Root Keeper as instructed in the rooting thread.

You can switch between V10G and V11A but can't root both. And no switch back to V10E. Say thanks to your US providers. Not to blame LG. They don't restrict this anywhere else in the world for P760/P765/P768.

Well bro, that link doesn't work. However, this does: http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-5752. According to T-Mobile all the V20H firmware does is upgrade the roaming connectivity.

Rooted P769
I have have the P769 with JB V20f. I keeping getting the the notification for the V20h update. I hit reboot & install. It shuts down then goes to the Android screen with the red triangle. I'm not sure what mode this is (I'm new to Jelly Bean and phone that does OTA updates) then reboots. I go to check Software version & it shows P76920f is still installed. What gives?
I have a P769 V20f rooted using LGPwn, have Superuser & Voodoo OTA RootKeeper V2.0.3
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance!

If you've modified system apps OR removed system content (bloatware) it won't allow you to update because you're missing "required" files. And by that I mean, they're upset that you removed their "important" and "exclusive" content, so they refuse you the update. Don't worry, the update it useless for most users.

The thing is I don't get 2G, 3G or 4G at work where I really think I probably would. I would like to think this "update" would help.
I didn't go bloatware removal crazy on this thing (like I wanted to). I made a backup of Amazon then uninstalled it using Titanium Backup. That is the only thing from the rom I removed. If I restored it, I wonder if it would work. I'll try restoring it then post back.

Do the update. And then it'll show a dead android. Then just turn it off (Hold power down or take out battery) and reboot, it'll never notify you again.

[Q] p769 jellybean conundrum

So im sure there are probably a million posts pertaining to this issue,but I cant for the life of me seem to find them. So,i decided to sign up to this website to ask for help. I have an lg optimus l9 (p769) and when i got the phone i rooted it of course. Im still running ics by the way. The first thing I did when I rooted was delete all of the bloatware. Then I started getting the ota update for jellybean. So, i impulsively unrooted my phone so i could get the update. Problem is, because i deleted the bloatware, i cant get the update. I tried a factory reset but to no avail. So now I have an unrooted l9 running the primitive ics that will not install jellybean because i deleted the bloatware. How do i fix this???? Im just tired of being harangued by the ota updates and not being able to install them. Please help!!!

Download and install the 'L9RecoveryInstaller.apk'. This will install a bootstrapped version of CMW to your device. Bear in mind that this recovery is limited due to the fact that your bootloader is locked. You can get L9RecoveryInstaller here.
Use the offline KDZ method to install a prerooted CWM backup which you can find here

LG L70 launcher problems

OK so I've had this LG L70 for a month now still no root. But that's not what I'm here to talk about. I'm here to ask for help or info with my problem. So the stock launcher is OK but no wear near better them sum or these aftermarket launchers... Next launcher in general. Well after downloading next Launcher I tried to set up my home screens with the same widgets I had on the stock launcher with no luck. It tells me there is a problem with the widgets tap to reload. When I tap they disappear. Anybody know how to fix this problem? Maybe some kinda work around. Thanks for any info.

Probably because many of the stock widgets are tied to the LG framework and need the stock launcher to run correctly.

Just disable the stuff you aren't using via the built-in Application Manager in Settings. Just because the widgets are there doesn't mean they are harming anything or that you have to use them. You aren't going to get any usable space back from uninstalling them anyway as those are installed in /system/app and stuff you add gets put in /data/app.
What I was trying to say was I can't download aftermarket stuff for the launcher because my memory is slap full.

I don't use any of the Google Apps other then maps and play store. Don't get me wrong the phones pretty fast! Is just got no memory. Way to much system junk apps and no way to root so I can't really uninstall system apps or move to sd card.

With System app remover you can delete the app which is playing the video again and again.
It called. Something like alice tutorial.
After deleting the app no more promotion video will be played.
2.with Hidden settings app you and. Go in the apps tab in settings which is always blocked by retail password otherwise.
And disable the retail mode app temporarily. After which you can. Do all you like with the settings and everything...
This was the temporary solution.
For the permanent solution i followed the directions posted by another senior member for restoring stock firmware to the lg g5 after which i have a completely unlocked european phone.
I again say im new to all this. So plzz auto prime if u can elaborate to everyone in a better way will be helpful .
Thanks

Thank you for sharing. I do not have a retail mode G5 myself but was curious about what was going on.
Now trying to break down what you said...
the 2 apps needed... it'd be nice to not need any apps at all. so trying to understand what each app did... the system app remover seems to need root.. at least this one does https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp
so, did you have root when you used that? if not, I think it may just freeze the app and that could be done with a "pm hide com.packagenamehere.com" command... if we knew the exact apk to freeze.
the hidden menus app... that could also be replicated with adb or terminal emulator plus a simple command to run "am start com.packagenamehere.com/.menu.youwantto.open" but again w would need to know the exact apk/menu we needed.
it's good to know there can be multiple ways of getting around this. But it seems the easiest method of all is just flashing a KDZ with LGUP. Everyone should b able to do that. LGUP steps can be found in my "all-in-one" G5 thread here - forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/info-autos-g5-thread-t3350648
if anyone still has a locked retail mode g5 and wants to figure out the exact apks to freeze/hide and launch and needs help.. find me in the LG IRC channels on freenode. link in my signature.. and also mentioned in the all-in-one guide linked above.. all the way at the end of the page.
Autoprime i have attached the snapshot of the two aaps i used and. Root was not needed and i wasnt rooted nor am.
I have the temporary solutuon cuz maybe some variant doenst havee the kdz yet .
Otherwise. The kdz method is hands down the winner.

Hi all, I have managed to acquire an LG G5, but the retail mode requires a password in order to uninstall the app, anyone know the code? I tried the code from the G3 but struck out.

You said something about the G3 code. Can you be ever so awsome, and say what the G3 code is? Or anyone for that matter.
I need your help on removing or bypassing retail mode

Lmao. I requested screenshot of the retail mode app yet no one post it. If it's the correct one i have the code to the retail to disable it. Don't even need the hassle of disabling stuff or flashing for that matter.

How to remove retail mode in LG G5
I have used the 2 apps as mentioned in one of the first posts. It removed the LG movie showing and allowed me to adjust the fingerprint.
But now I would like to update it by LG says it is not possible as they will not release the code to unlock the phone. Thus I cannot root it and update. Is there anyway or possibility to root and flash the ROM?
