P769 won't get custom roms for a little while. We are still waiting on the jelly bean/bootloader unlock update, that came out in europe. I speculate that we will have all the custom roms that are available on p760 in about 1-2 months but there is no way to know for sure. But still a solid phone for the price (I got mine as a free upgrade when I renewed my contract) and the prepaid is $200 I believe.

Did you get any error messages? Or did you finish the process and when you checked for Root Access, you didn't see anything?

People need very small procedures and quick solutions. The length of the guide could be the problem. They simply dont read it fully. I think the guide looks lengthy but the flashing and rooting is very simple and quick.
Sometimes they dont even explain what are problems.

Yes the guide is long but all u need to do is read fully thru a few times then follow instructions exactly as they are typed skipping nothing. I tried root one night and i was under the influence it took me so many tries i gave up but i sobered up read thru the guide again did it step by step and successfully rooted my phone. Ppl have to make sure they change their host files and reboot otherwise ur gonna get that lg server maintenance error which is what had me stuck until i changed my hosts file correctly

[GUIDE] free sim unlock for i717!!

firstly you need to flash the tmobile based ics modem ( flash in cwm or twrp) found here:
http://multiupload.biz/fdpnprq0ov6o/Official TMo ICS RADIO_NOTE_MultiUpload.biz.zip.html
then after flashing boot into your rom and follow these instructions exactly (note: after pressing perso shaf256 off I had to press back twice instead of once, but then I was back on the network page and could choose [4] NW LOCK NV DATA INITIALLIZ):

Can't wait to try this on my Bell Note! I'm going to Florida soon and have been procrastinating on getting the phone unlocked...
Score one for procastination!
I was surprised when it actually worked... I got screwed out of an unlock code by an online company (only 8 bucks but still) so when I saw the t989 modem and thread about free unlock for their phone (using the same modem you can flash on ours) I had to try it! I flashed a rogers radio afterward and the unlock stayed also.
Thanks for posting! I'll definitely be trying this out when my Note arrives on Saturday.
Worked perfectly!
I am impressed! I worked like a charm in the very first try! I used a AT&T Galaxy Note I717 with stock ROM (I717UCLF6, kernel 3.0.8). The best part is that later I flashed another ROM (Padawan) and it remained unlocked. Did a couple of phone calls and it is working great! Thank you so much! :victory:
you're quite welcome guys! Figured I had to share the wealth on this one and hopefully save some users some cash and/or getting scammed by too good to be true unlock code site "deals".
Got my note unlocked for $3 but I will pass this method on.
Thanks.

The Note has been out for a while. Is there any reason not to simply call ATT (or whatever carrier you have) and ask them for the unlock code? Don't get me wrong. If this method is safe and if it works, then thank you for sharing.
can anyone verify this does work on at&t? and do we just reflash an at&t modem after its done?
thanks

Sorry, Crixley. I think your post is appreciated, and though I wasn't terribly excited at first, I did thank you. I forgot to push the Thanks button but that's taken care of now. I wasn't sold at first that this unlock would work but it appears to be valid for several users. And, being an ATT user for many years, I can get my unlock with a simple phone call. However, I see your post as very valuable for many others. So, THANKS!

[Q] Custom ROM from INternational

*****SOLVED*****Ive done some searching and haven't come to a definitive of whether it will work or wont . Im unlocked, rooted...all on the ATT ONE. Anyone, a dev say, sure as to whether this will work? Id hate to screw my phone up being a day old.

I would just enjoy the phone for now and wait. There is confirmation on unlocking the boot and getting root if this is true which it seems to be there is not much we can do with it until our devs start cooking home made goodies. The only reason I would be anxious to root is for tethering but there are apps that will give you tether without rooting in the play store.
I'm not an addict I just flash a lot.
Yea, I'm unlocked and rooted. I wanna flash something !!!! Lol

I'm 99% sure it will work. 100% of the internals are the same except for the bands on the radio, which are just a matter of changing the APN. Go ahead and do it for us

Odds are you won't be able to unlock unless someone creates a new method.
Alright, once i have been unlocking bootloader on p760 and i was succesful from first try. But i did this after i've reflashed kdz threw lg support tool, because i,ve got security alert. I wanted to flash cyanogen mod, and after flashing, i've got security alert. so i reflashed kdz with support tool and after that i succesful unlocked bootloader by adb unlock. so i'm wondering.. maybe we need first to get security error, when fix it and after that try to unlcok? anyone, who got unlocked, have you ever got security error before?

[Q] LG Sucks

You are just announcing that you failed at a task.
Anyway the biggest failure here (beside the tantrum) was that you did not share any details about your phone, version,os, your rooting methods, your system where you tried it.

If you can't follow the directions to root, then you shouldn't have a rooted phone. Wouldn't be safe.

Follow sticky guide return to stock rom make sure you download KDZ of jelly bean.
Follow guide explicitly.
Once back in with jelly bean use ioroot to root it.

No OEM unlock option in T-Mobile Samsung S9+?

I have a T-Mobile s9+ and for the life of me, I cannot get the OEM unlock button to show in Dev options. I've had my phone for over the 7 days, as I saw you need. I've even tried doing the "change the date manually and restart" trick and no luck.
Is there no option for the T-Mobile version of this phone and it's already OEM unlocked? Can I just go ahead and root my phone without issue? Or do I need to get that button before I can go ahead and root/install a new rom?
If you have the G965U, no you will not be able to unlock the boot loader.. My oppinon, is when all manufactures were done stealing ideas from dev's live here on XDA.. They decided they did not need them anymore and locked the phones down.

You can install GSI, but they have the same downsides that the default oreo root ROM included has, if not more. I'm on 10 too lol. I tested it, played around with it then went back to stock. It was neat.

I mean the good thing about this method is that it doesn't unlock bootloader, so it doesn't trip knox. The bad thing about not unlocking bootloader is that you can't install custom kernels or recoveries.
