Virgin Mobile Canada.
I'm trying to flash a compatible firmware so I can use Temp CWM or even root to flash CWM.
It's near impossible to root this thing on it's default firmware and no firmwares will flash other than the original. I get a SEC AUTH ERROR. I've tried everything. 32/64 windows. I've done the steps. SUT LR. Tried nearly every version of SuperOneClick. Tried psneuter, gingerbreak, zergrush. Nothing works. And yes, USB dev is enabled.
Anybody know if the Virgin Mobile Motoluxe is different than the others?
Does anybody else have this phone?

Which i assume is the bootloader screen? How can you tell if a bootloader is unlocked?
I'm guessing it's locked if I can't flash another firmware.

What exactly am I doing with ADT?
I can't use adb to boot into fastboot.
I've tried "adb reboot-bootloader" and it just restarts the phone normally.
Also tried "fastboot boot recovery.img" manually. But nothing.
Anybody have any other suggestions?

Hi Guys !!!
I'm happy to have found you ... because I have EXACTLY the same problem !
I own a phone from Virgin Mobile... a motoluxe XT615.
I have unlocked it lately ... it work very well on other provider.
I wish to use the phone on Petro-Canada network, which have unlimited data for browsing at 8$ per month.
However, actually, if you go over 2 Gb, they might shut down your account...
Unfortunately, to be able to use proxy (autoproxy) to make all my apps on the phone working with the Petro-Canada data proxy, I need to root the phone !
Here is what I've tried :
I have tried the SuperOneClick without success... I have tried manual rooting ( using adb shell on terminal ) .. I have tried with Windows 7 and I have tried on Ubuntu ... both failed. I have tried to flash the phone firmware with version IRM-152A-0-4034-A01_BFM ... thus resulted to an unusable phone ! ... the application actually crashed (May try it again!) ...
I have tried to flash it with firmware version IRM-1670-0-4073-A02_BFM_service provided by a website that stated that this firmware is already rooted (in order to install Jelly Beam) ... but ... it resulted in having a non-bootable phone at all...
So I had to flash it back with firmware IRM-174F-0-1022-A01_BFM ... and then I got a blue screen ... (after 4 min waiting) . Then I rebooted and was able to use the phone as before ( well, I had to put back all my settings )...
So far, I've tried the gingerbreak (installed on the phone as an APK) ... I have tried psneuter ... and I have tried superoneclick ... and tried some firmware. I can't get this phone rooted at all !!!
HELP!
If anyone know of a firmware that may work on this phone, I'd be happy to try it ! If the firmware provided is already rooted, then good !
I'll be monitoring this thread to see your own progress...
Thanks !

Issue
Thanks for putting this together antdking
I came across an issue rooting my LG Optimus One with it, the batch script gave an error with something like "invalid option for su: --install"
Fixed it by adding single-quotes around the busybox command on line 409 like this:
adb -d wait-for-device shell "su -c '/system/bin/busybox --install -s /system/bbin'"

No. Rooting will only allow you to flash a custom recovery, which you need to do seperately after rooting.
Options for Custom Recoveries -
1) AmonRa 2) TWRP 3) CWM
I use AmonRa which I find most stable & functional. CWM installation from ROM manager could brick your phone.
Once you have installed your recovery, then you can flash any custom ROM you like from this forum.
Hope this helps.:good:

I think the easiest way is to use LG mobile support tool. refer to this member post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2456558&highlight=encrypt
- Boot you phone to S/W update mode
- Run LG mobile support tool (B2CAppSetup.exe)
- Select recover you phone from menu and wait for about an hour
- *Dont forget to comment lg server that you add in host file for offline flash
There're also other way to fix it, if you can boot into Stock recovery by Holding vol- + ... (I can't remember ), but this combo may hard reset your phone if you don't have stock recovery. In stock recovery mode you can use adb to push and replace busybox. I don't try this myself but some member unbrick their phone by this method.

Sounds like you made a serious error and didn't do any research before proceeding. Did you install the LG drivers prior to doing anything with the phone? If not, you have just bricked your device. L9RecoveryInstaller.apk is the ONLY way at the moment to successfully install CWM on the P769 if the bootloader is locked. I don't have all the answers myself as I'm fairly new to this device, P769, myself. There may be someone here with a little more insight as to how to fix your issue, but if you didn't install LGs drivers beforehand, I'd say your device is bricked. Sorry.
You'll need to use fastboot to flash ICS u and x. Then go into upgrade mode by holding volume up and plugging the phone to the computer. Upgrade mode should pop up and you're ready to flash any kdz using the offline flash method.

L9 P769 is a much different creature than the other P76X variants. CWM CANNOT be installed on the recovery partition unless the bootloader is unlocked. There are very few people here who have managed to unlock the bootloader on this device ( P769 ). Any attempt to modify the bootloader, boot partition, or recovery ends in "LG Security Error". As per my previous post, the only way to get CWM on this device with a locked bootloader is with the L9RecoveryInstaller.apk.

Do you have busybox installed and or do you have multiple copies of busybox installed?
If you don't have busybox, install it from the Play Store. Make sure it installs to /system/xbin.
If you have multiple copies, which I did when I had this error, use the busybox installer to uninstall all copies of busybox and then use the installer to reinstall busybox to /system/xbin.
You may need to run L9RecoveryInstaller again. It will say there is a recovery installed just reinstall anyway.
Reboot and try again.

You may need to run L9RecoveryInstaller again. It will say there is a recovery installed just reinstall anyway.
Reboot and try again.

Cm11 is available, yes some people can unlock the bootloader. Theres a few threads about removing tmobile bloatware, along with solutions to the other questions I answered. Simply search your question and you'll find a solution. THEN if you can't find the solution by searching make a thread to ask about it. Goodluck if you try unlocking the bootloader, its quite a journey!! If you can't unlock it or the process scares you out of trying search Kuma ROM. Goodluck!

Hi, I'm in a similar boat as the OP, successfully rooted the device but didn't realise I needed an unlocked bootloader to flash a recovery. Now I get Security Error.
Now, I keep seeing "ICS x and u" on this forum, and have no idea what it is. Yet people keep saying it like it's obvious.
Is this it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44144663
If so, obviously I can't follow the steps because my phone won't boot up past the splash screen. And said phone isn't recognized by ADB at the moment, because I can only figure out how to boot it into S/W update mode.
Currently I can't even use the L9RecoveryInstaller.apk, because, again, can't boot up. Help?

You'll need to use fastboot to flash the x and u images. They are included with the tools. Search the General section.

Or simply unbrick using the lgupdate tool. Why not go the easy way?

C this doesn't work. It gets stuck at 4 percent during the sw upgrade process.:crying:
Hello everyone,
I tryed multiple time to flash my phone (original ROM) with Odin and other software. Every time the connection cannot be established. I have tried with different computers and different cables, including the original one. I came to the conclusion that Micro USB connector in my phone is broken. I can still recharge but data transfer is not possible.
I have an SD card where i can put a ROM in order to update my phone. But if i'm correct that isn't possible if I don't have ClockworkMod Recovery.
So finaly my question: Is it possible to root install a custom recovery without a cable and without root?
So in oder words: If it's not rooted and i have the Stocked recovery I can't do anything without the usb connector.
Version out of the box:
Device: GT-I9300

My question to you would be why do you want custom recovery when you do not want root access??

I would like both. But at this moment I have no USB connector (broken). So I have some kind of a boostrap issue.
Without root no flashing from device
Without custom recovery no root and no other rom.
You need to look for a custom recovery that can be flashed using the update.zip facility in stock. I'm not aware of one but happy searching.

Then you have to flash a "CF-root.tar" file with odin. Then your stock kernel will be rooted, su will be installed and also a custom recovery.
In most cases it will be CWM..... ..... Happy Flashing :angel:

Sounds great, but i can't find any signed custom recovery... I'm now downloading the whole internet on my PC so i can perform a grep...
The issue is that i can't use ODIN because my USB connector is broken.

Thats r8
But there could or is the possibility to root phones with an "odin root apk" .But i think one should not do it in this way
cause you could break your device....The download mode with an odin program and an USB connection to your phone
is the only way.
Same problem.
I use fiwe diferent cables .I changed the USB port on phone. NO connection to PC. i dont known what do next. I've tried everything. can't conect sgs3 to odin. no posibility root. please help. thanks.
All drivers installed. Kies dont see phone. I try on windows xp windows 7 windows 8 same problem
