Its really a pain for Jimmy(Our average power User) to read all the instructions for root, then for unlocking,then upgrading,then for CWM.
I want to make all this process is easy as flashing a KDZ only.
I want to create a Ulitimate KDZ file with these features,
Rooted Jelly bean 4.1.2
Unlocked bootloader
CWM
Now that we have unlocked bootloader on many P760.
It would be nice if someone could share dump their bootloaders and share with the L9 community.
I was thinking whether it was possible create a edited KDZ with unlocked bootloader and cwm built into it?
Is practically possible to make somethink like this??
while googling around i found this awesome tool
https://code.google.com/p/arenoid/wiki/KDZExtractPack
Is this tool relevant for the job what i intend to do?
I need suggestions from devs on this topic.
It would be helpful if someone could put some light on this topic.
I think this was tried before few months back by someone on ics with locked bootloader with no success. But as now bootloader is unlocked its worth a shot again. May be I will try this in a day or two when some extra more time.

just tried this tool : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737
not useful for L9.
Till now i've managed to Extract KDZ and then Pack with the tool in the first post.
Creating a rooted stock ROM seems easy. (thanks to lewis)
You just have to Extract KDZ << Hex edit Bin File << Pack KDZ back << Voila you got stock rooted rom.
But how do i include CWM and unlocked bootloader in it ???

I know spyrosk since long time/year and recently I am in conversation with him just yesterday for my rooting of ICS v30b rom two days back on Optimus 2x, which I still have. Yes he knows me from o2x forum
The tool is good here for various things but it is not for rebuilding kdz. We can only use it to extract KDZ but even I have my own simple way to exract kdz and working great for me.
Let us see what else can be done to rebuild kdz. May be someone else is already working quietly on this.
@cmahendra do you know any senior member who knows the procedure of rebuilding KDZ file?
we can take help from him maybe he can guide us in the right direction.
What about just pre-rooted rom? Could anybody handle it?
//edit: sorry for redundant question, i misunderstood posts above...

Have you managed to do all this for L9? How exactly?
I just wanted to Extarct KDZ file and pack it again to achieve the same KDZ file binary equal to original).
I tried with V20C_00.kdz
Decrypt KDZ file generates one WDB and one DLL file.
KP500-Utils-EN.exe doesn't accept this DLL file
Choice: h
Location of DLL (Ex C:\Inf_WebDnld.dll): LGP760.dll
Procedure not found:_StartUpgrade
Click to expand...

I have used LGExtract.exe which extracted several BIN files from WDB and LGP760_CP.fls. To merge those files into KDZ I had to create .txt file with file list and merge order. After merge I have KDZ file again but it is few kB larger than the original.

Hi All,
Ive just got one of these to play with for a holiday phone and thought first thing is first before i even throw a sim in it lets get it up to ICS.
Ive gone into update centre and it says there are no updates?
Can anyone advise please how to update or why it has seen 4.00?
Thanks
A
Have you tried with Sony PC suite?
Anyway, you can always flash a ROM which is already carrying 4.0.4.
I havent tried this yet, im still at work. i bought this phone to play with rooting and flashing etc as i didnt want to brick my HOX (im a n00b)
I will download drivers etc tonight.
Thanks

Thanks again for the advice.

As you're still on 2.3.7, I'd suggest you follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897826
Should be easy.
I made the mistake of upgrading to 4.0.4 (6.1.1.C.1.0) which didn't allow me to use the above. I had to downgrade to B.1.0, root, reupgrade the kernel to C.1.0 and only then flashing a ROM (I truly like Xperiance Lite 2.0, it doubled my battery time!).

Hello, I've recently gotten a LG G3 for my birthday, and so far I love it! Only thing is I can't seem to root it. Im on 4.4.2, along with the ZV4, but stump root wont work for me. My phone model is the LS990, the Sprint model, and when I try to use stump root this happens (see attachment). I'm unable to use the grind button and I can't use the brute force option. And ideas on why I can't root my phone. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Try using the flash tool to downgrade back to ZV4 or ZV8 you can check my root guide for instructions. Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/how-to-root-lg-g3-sprint-ls990-t3046496. Kust make sure to read carfully because if you don't you can end up bricking your phone.

I think I'm already on ZV4? Can you confirm I'm not before I try that dangerous method?
Yep your own ZV4 I will go ahead and link the thread for ZV4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...de-how-to-restore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042 it only has files for ZV4. Once your on ZV4 you can root via Stump Root.

OK, so I tried what you said and the flash tool gave me an error telling me my device model is different. I did a little research, and it turns out my phone is actually model ls885, not 990, as you can see here. So that would explain why stump root wouldn't work for me. Do you have any advice, or should I try to get the stump root guys to work on developing support for my model?
I have never used/herd of this tool but here is a link that should help you root: http://resolvedqs.com/tube/7FP_JG2ywJI/how-to-root-your-new-lg-g3-vigor-android-smartphone
Just a little "heads-up" I take no responsiblity for this tool.

That didn't work for me, but I did a little searching myself and found this which worked for me. Thanks a lot for your help!

This is a windows tool that I made just extract it and run it. What it will do is give you your model number and what ZVx your on (x is a example). Let me know how it works plus it should help you find out what phone you have and it could be a double check. This will only work for the G3 though!

No problem
First of all: My english is a lil' bit bad, so sorry for that.
So yea.. I need help. I can't root my LG Optimus L7 II with the firmware
v20A (Android 4.4.2 Kitkat). I think, i should tell you the history of my
phone first: As i got my phone, it had a firmware-version with Android
4.1.2 which I rooted with.. Framaroot i think. Then I flashed cyanogenmod 11.
And i lost my root T.T. Cyanogenmod had many lags, bugs etc. So i tried to flash
Android 4.1.2 with the LG-Update tool. After that my phone didn't start anymore.
My father sent it to the LG-Repair center and i got my phone back with Android
4.4.2. (v20A). I tried to root it a several times (framaroot, towelroot, easyroot..) but it
didn't work. Anyone who can help me?
Some people told me that now this app (former vRoot) can root on Kitkat firmwares (yes, it is a 1-clic root app). Maybe it could help you. If not... have you tried flashing an already rooted KDZ file?
If I wanted a rooted phone with Kitkat and a custom recovery... then I'd flash one of maxx_hr's KDZ. Just use his KDZ and LG Flash Tool (not any other LG tool) and you're good to go
Thank you!
I flashed a pre-rooted ROM by max_hrr 1-2 weeks ago
and it works for me. I have full root access now! Thank you
for helping me

That's great. I used the kdz for Mexico and the results were amazing. Stock firmware, no modifications, rooted, with custom recovery, all in just a few clics. What model of L7II do you have?
Have you seen that now the CyanogenMod 10.2 is going to be the best rom for our LG L7II devices? If not I'd recommend you to have a look at it.
Have a nice day!
Thank you II
Thank you, i'll take a look at it Have a good day

After you flash my kdz, and check it works, turn off device, boot to recovery (TWRP), and flash upgrade-supersu from: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU .
That's all.

Hello,
If I flash the phone with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56986151&postcount=2 ROM, it will be automatically rooted?
If the phone is rooted, does that mean that I can uninstal some system applications that I don't need?

Yes, you can uninstall system apps you don't need. But in order to root your phone you have to download a .zip version of SuperSU and flash it in the recovery mode. I done the same with my P710 and everything went well, so you don't have to worry

lol . All phones have a bootloader,just is it locked or unlocked already . You can use winrar or 7zip to open .bin files
