Is wich recovery, does it need to have unlocked bootloader?
no you can install it with the l9 recovery installer apk here

remember to install busybox before you flash recovery or it wont flash it

If you mean metro pcs kdz,i didn't, but i did re-flash the tmobile.kdz after i got the wonky screen from the Euro.kdz.
that should fix the wonky touch screen for sure cause the metro and the t-mobile are the same

Here is the official way: http://www.lg-phones.org/how-to-install-android-2-3-3-gingerbread-firmware-on-lg-optimus-one.html. Here is the XDA way : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244 (see step 4 and choose a rom of your choice here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=839).
actully i found a better way, if you flash the jobans kernel you can get the tri color screen fixed it the easiest way!

Hi francantabria, if your bootloader is still locked (it will be so if you don't unlock it) you can't install a real recovery, but you can install a very similar tool - bootstrap or second init- (the artas182x's one) which needs busybox for working.
Busybox is a set of advanced Linux commands for Android, just Google it.
Cheers. Good luck.

Hi francantabria, of course you can, but the proper order is (giving as a fact that you want to unlock the bootloader, you know that you'll lose the guaranty stuff):
1.unlock the bootloader (previously you need to be familiar with fastboot, install its drivers,...)
2.install a recovery via fastboot (or Nandroid Manager) it could be CWM or TWRP.
3.root easily (flashing SU and busybox from the recovery).
4.flash custom rom.
If you follow this way read the tutorials seriously and do it the exact way.
Respect the timing issue: be very careful. I have not unlocked yet, so my experience, at the moment, is only by reading about it. (Fastboot drivers installed and a little more).
Cheers. Good luck.

Hello I have a problem with my LG optimus 4XHD. I didn't like the 4.1.2 lg skinned android so i wanted to install a custom rom. I started by rooting my phone that worked but then i flashed clockworkmod recovery without unlocking the bootloader. Now i can't enter my recovery anymore but i can still boot into android. Now my question is: Can i still unlock the bootloader now without bricking my phone? Or is there another fix for a problem like this. Can someone please help me?
Thanks!

How did you flash CWM without unlocking bootloader?
And I think the bootloader can only be unlocked only with stock recovery.

Thanks for replying i flashed CWM using the Rom manager app. Do you have any idea if i can get the recovery to work again?
You gotta find stock recovery and flash like you did in CWM recovery.
This is my idea and true in logical. Isn't it.
Try at your own risk and Good luck, mate.

Thank you for tying to help me .Finding a stock recovery and flash it looks pretty hard. I would like to know why i can't unlock my bootloader now? Does unlocking the bootloader require you to have access to the recovery? Again thanks for helping i really appreciate it
I have unlocked many bootloaders of many MTK devices. The phone will be reboot to stock recovery and format the whole phone after unlocking bootloader. So I said that you need stock recovery.

You gotta find your stock recovery yourself by googling or request approriate one on the forum.
And see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163974 to make a flashable zip.
Or try this flashing recovery.img directly using Mobile uncle tools (I am not sure this would work. 50% to work)
See my thread here to try latter way.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2686654
Follow the steps 2, 3 and 5.
Good luck, bro.
Either your phone is bricked or CWMR is not flashed.

Seems there is no offical Sprint firmware, can someone make a package of it? Thanks.
How can one make a package? I'm on sprint 20j December, unlocked bootloader and magisk. I never installed twrp, because the links don't work here. I wanted to use twrp, booting using adb, instead of installing it which might make ota difficult.
Qfil lets me dump partitions but I'm not sure how to automate it, there's tons!
