1. You can unroot after rooting. Use Gingerbreak app to root/unroot.
2. No it's not. If this was illegal, there would not be such a big community supporting it.
3. If you do all the steps properly, you will have no problems with your phone. Even if your phone gets bricked, tell the LG care person that you messed up with your phone while updating the firmware through the LG support tool.
4. You've repeated the same question twice
5. Yes you can. Download the official firmware from the forums and flash it through KDZ.
And please don't open up new threads like this for such basic stuff. Read the forums and use the search button. See this thread first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901247

There is app2sd which will move the whole stuff into external memory. I've never used it and never thought of using it. If you want to store the apps on your memory card, you can move all of them if you use a Cyanogenmod 7 based ROM. And regarding your stored data, I've no idea as I never had to buy another card from the one I got with the phone. Again, please search the forums.
ok thank you I rooted my lg optimus one using gingerbreak.apk
but there is a problem when I install busybox installer and when I click on install
they said sd card is not plugged in?install failed
also rom manager tells

Make sure that your phone is not plugged into the pc and check if your sd card is mounted. Otherwise check available space on your card.

don't do it again and again, that might cause a permanent brick. Try this
Switch off your phone and try to enter recovery via 3 button combo i.e home+vol. Down+ power button.
If it boots into recovery, its good then

ROM manager is useful only when you need to flash a recovery. Once you're done with flashing ClockworkMod recovery, just kick the hell out of ROM manager and never use it again. It is one of the ****tiest app around. After the recovery is installed, you can use it always. It will be easier than messing around with ROM manager. Good luck!

Yes amonra can be used as well. But the issue mentioned here happens with ROM manager and clockworkmod works like a charm.

Generally when we fix the fastboot semibrick, we actually flash the recovery img of amonra. If someone wants CWM after fastboot fix, replace the amonra recovery image file with CWM's img file

if you did right root you should see superuser app in app menu. if you install sucessfuly cwm, then restart your and after your will be booting up hold power+vol. down and home. You get recovery. Confirm, if you get into the recovery.

Hey guys,
I've been lurking for a little while now and reading up on steps I need to follow to swap my internal and external memory, but I wanted to clarify something to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong. First off, I have a Verizon Note 2 that I rooted using Odin and running "Jelly Beans build.1 VRALJB 4.1.1 by Beanstown106". That's as far as I've gone thus far. I tried just using directory bind to install apps to my external micro sd card, but that program has too many issues to use reliably. Apps were forcing close and the app itself was glitching. I've decided to run a memory swap mod, but from what I've gathered, I'll need to unlock the bootloader and flash a new rom. So here's my plan (please let me know if there's some flaw in it):
1) I'll unlock the bootloader using AdamOutler's guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2043636
2) I figured the next easiest step would be to just flash a custom rom that includes the memory swap in it inherently, like the angelROM TouchWiz debloat build here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055073&nocache=1
Thanks for any info you folks can provide. This is my first time jumping into advanced Android modifying and I'm nervous about mixing the wrong builds/roms and bricking my phone.
P.S. One last thing: Does anyone know if AFTER having run the mod to swap memory, if you can transfer all the data to a new (larger) memory card and swap them out? I have a 32 GB card but intend to get a 64 GB one in the next few days. Can I flash the angelROM build now and then just swap them when I get the larger card or will that cause issues?
There shouldn't be any issue as long ss you turn off the phone and then remove the 32GB SD and use your computer to handle the swap. It wont break anything if the phone is on but it'll make it act a smidge wonky imo.
Also: http://db.tt/NtrxYbU8
Its a zip that will switch the sd card positions. This isnt my original work but I use it because it works no questions asked.

Thanks so much for the info! I'm still a little nervous about whether or not I'm missing a step between unlocking the bootloader and then jumping into the "memory swap ROM" immediately. Can anyone verify that my plan is correct and whether or not the angelROM w/ memory swap mod is OK on our Verizon Note 2's?
As long as you use the angelROM for the Verizon Galaxy Note 2 Development section you will be fine. After unlocking the bootloader via Adam's process you should have TWRP recovery, which will allow you to fladh the rom.
Download the rom to either your internal storage or your external storage.
Extra: from what I have been told flashing modem's (new radios) that leak will screw up the current ROM you are using. So if new radios leak anytime soon and you are still running the sd card swap you will need to undue that if you plan to flash them.
Extra 2: I can't vouch for it myself because I'm having my own problems after undoing the zip file i shared, but I know undoing the zip is as easy as using root explorer to delete the alteration in the init.d file under etc, so theres that.
Tl; dr: after you unlock the bootloder you are good to run the swap.

Great, thanks again for all your help! I'll give it a go tonight. I'm actually fairly techie and have hacked many devices in the past, but I feel like modding Android devices is probably one of the toughest yet. There are just so many variations of rom builds and hacks, coupled with the confusion of WAY too many android devices and specifics for different carriers... It's hard keeping everything straight. Thanks again! :good:
Omg this is a God sent post! Ok so I have the 16gb and I only have 2gigs left lol,... Ok but what happens when you flash a new rom or an update from Verizon comes out am I going to have to revert back and be tranfering data each time? Will recovery recognize the memory swap? After the memory swap will I have to move or copy everything over before or after the swap, if after how will it boot if it thinks it's OS is on the memory card now.... If I revert back does that mean the OS needs to be copied back to internal memory before the swap... Ughhhh this is too much but I LOVE my phone and there is no other way I have to get this working... I really hope they improve this method

So to answer some questions:
It will revert back to normal between roms. Thats why I recommend using the zip I posted. Again its not my work and I am not taking credit for it. But that zip can be applied to any rom.
You should worry more about losing the bootloader and root under new software because most likely that will happen.
I suggest doing a clean install with the swap, and not installing apps. Otherwise you will have to move stuff manually.
Rom will continue to work if you want to remove the init.d file but most likely have sd card issues as I am seeing. Instagram doesnt recognize I have an sd card in. Its hit or miss and in now way reflects the owners work, its the nature of the beast unfortunately.
Hope that helps
EDIT: The zip isnt rom specific, whereas angelROM is specifically for that rom

Lets say you use cyanogen right? And a new version of the rom comes out. It will recognize whatever is currently your external and internal, but when you flash a new rom it will revert back to original paths.

That I am unsure of. Because data wipes everything I believe it would get rid of the init.d file so it woukd revert back to normal, but I'm not 100% sure on that

Ok, so I followed the steps I detailed in my OP and everything went pretty well. I'm running angelROM v4 and wanted to update to the v6 that was posted but I'm unable to boot back into recovery mode now... After initially unlocking, I made a nandroid backup in TWRP, but now I can't seem to get back into recovery mode. I power off and hold volume - & power but the phone just boots back up normally. Is there something I'm missing here? Does flashing a new rom remove the TWRP recovery option or something?
Never mind. I apologize if I wasted anyone's time with this. I figured out I can reboot into recovery mode by using Rom Toolbox. I just figured there would be a shortcut that would allow me to do it without it also.
Ok so your not able to use the power + up key combination like normal?

You know, I never saw in any of my searching any indication that "volume + & power" was the correct key combination to boot to recovery. Everything I found said that to boot into recovery mode in TWRP, you need to use "volume - & power", not volume +. I'll give that a go. Thanks!
By the way, I'm just about ready to give up on this whole memory swap mod thing. Has anyone gotten it working without issues? The angelROM I posted about earlier worked but when apps were installed they didn't get allocated to the correct memory. For example, I first attempted to install some of my backups from Titanium Backup Pro, and when I did that, the apps installed to the (switched) "card" memory. Which, of course, is pointless, since the whole idea is to get them to install on the external sd card so the device can hold more apps. I initially figured this was probably a limitation with restoring apps in Titanium Backup, so I tested installing some apps directly from the google play store. When I did that, those apps ended up taking up memory on BOTH storage locations. Example: EXT MEM had 10 GB and INT MEM had 4 GB before I installed a 1 GB app. AFTER installing that app, my EXT MEM had 9 GB and my INT MEM had 3 GB.
At that point I figured it was probably an issue with the angelROM itself so I ditched it and moved on to Bean's Revision 4 (which I like the look of more anyway). That happens to have a "memory swap" option so I enabled that and I'm getting the EXACT same issues. So my question is this: has anyone been able to use the memory swap mod and install apps on the external sd card WITHOUT the app taking up equal space on the internal storage? If so, what did you do to get it to work?
P.S. I'd post these questions in the angelROM thread or bean's revision 4 thread, but being new here, my post count is still too low to ask questions on the development boards. Thanks!
I recently rooted my phone downloaded root explorer messed with something I had no business messing with now I cannot use my ext-card or even open the storage option plus I constantly get the unfourtunatley error contacts or messaging has stopped I think it's something with my permissions but I do now that I'm un-rooted and cannot fix a thing anyone help

Guys I made a dumb mistake. After trying to install Pinky and the Brain rom coming from another rom, I wiped my internal sd card. Well I downloaded the pinky and the brain rom and put it on an external sd card. the rom shows when I go to install but it shows all the folders, but it doesn't see the rom.zip file. I don't think this is something I have to flash with odin and Casual is out of the question since im rooted, unlocked, and on a custom rom. I am currently have TWRP. do I have to manipulate the pinky and the brain rom. Im sure im missing a step. I don't want to odin back to a stock rom then using casual to get back. is there an easier way.
I use my droid as my main internet source. Now im stuck with a POS sony Erickson experia just to have a working phone and im connecting via 3g..sucks for me lol..seriously what am I doing wrong that my phone is not showing the zip file to install via TWRP.
Again I have no rom on the phone at this point...just to be clear

Seems you still have access to TWRP correct?
I would then load into it, under advanced, go to sideload. Connect it to a computer with a functioning adb and sideload the zip of the rom you want to flash over.
teamw.in /ADBSideload (that's a URL, I can't put them in posts yet, too new)
I have saved a phone in a similar situation this exact way.
Hope this helps.

IMO 20H rom is crap, they removed move 2 sd (app2sd). The metroPCS rom (10D) is better. I deodex it added nexus keyboard, enabled move 2 sd, added the swap script (without init.d or an app) and removed some bloatware. You may not know but init.d doesn't not work well with artas182x 2nd init cwm recovery, they conflict with one another. It (init.d) works about 50% of the time. You mostly have problems with it (init.d) not working when going in and out of cwm. To get it working again, you have to reinstall init.d. I'll try to upload my deodex version some time later today.

Here you go bud.
Should work just fine, as a side note, if the SuperSU app gives you trouble, i installed it as system app, so just delete it and install from the market
Kuma82, Yes it will work just fine, yes it has advantages over tmobile, but meh, sometimes the tmobile crap is good to have around....Well not really, but they are looking for the tmobile version, so i got it covered. if they want, they can restore yours, its just a matter of preference really. No harm, no foul, different views. Thank you for some speedy input on threads though.
Awesome thanks! That's not going to overwrite my data tho is it?
Well normally you backup your data, and stuff, then factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik before restoring a new one.
Safest route of action is to make a backup first before restoring it:
Try downloading a simple root backup app or something, backup all your appa+data as well nandroid your current setup, you can't go wrong that way around
Restore my backup, then advanced restore the apps and data in cwm or use the backup program to restore it all.

T-mobile rooted cwm rooted zip with move2sd and swap script?

I would love to get a v20h rooted cwm zip with the swap script and move2sd enabled.
I need the tmobile rom since I have a very bad signal ah home and want to use the wifi calling (uma). However, without the move2sd and the swap script, I always manage to run out of memory.
I was able to use build prop to at move2sd to v20f but was not able to get the swap script working.
Any suggestions on how to use either of your roms and get the best of both worlds - rooted, wifi calling, move2sd, and swap internal and external SD cards?

That is good news! While Tmobile 20h may work for people, I do prefer a lighter ROM and your MetroPCS 10D sounds like it has all the features I want - root/wifi-calling/move2sd/swap-sd-cards! I was on the Wind JB ROM earlier which was also pretty good, but did not have Wifi calling. I will try out your listed ROM - I assume it is similar to other rooted CWM zips and can be installed in a similar fashion.
My best-case scenario would have been a CM 10.x with wifi calling if possible, but I cannot install CM anyway since I was unable to unlock the bootloader on my P769 despite several tries.
Thanks for your help.

LOL, I told you 20H was crap and 10D is queen. Well I really didn't say all that ha. Anyways you are right, 20H (dam T-Mobile) removed enabling move 2 SD. MetroPCS 10D (jellybean) IS THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS, it has wifi calling, move 2 SD & all that other good stuff.
I don't know if you know this, but I'm with T-Mobile, my carrier is not MetroPCS. The metro version works fine on my T-Mobile sim.

Kuma82:
Did you already upload your latest Metropcs 10d rooted/move2sd/swapped-sd-cards cwm zip? If so, please provide a link. I found an older metro rom from you from June, but perhaps I haven't searched well enough on XDA.
Thanks a lot!

Well normally you backup your data, and stuff, then factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik before restoring a new one.
Safest route of action is to make a backup first before restoring it:
Try downloading a simple root backup app or something, backup all your appa+data as well nandroid your current setup, you can't go wrong that way around
Restore my backup, then advanced restore the apps and data in cwm or use the backup program to restore it all.

Wait, so what you are saying is we can just
Make a nandroid
Factory reset wipe caches etc,
Restore 20h
Then restore our data from the previous backup?

Precisely sir.
Make a full nandroid (in case you wanna full restore)
Then wipe date/factory
Wipe Cache
Wipe dalvik
Advanced restore and restore your data, all should be well.

Here is the 10D rooted and swapped sd card cwm backup that was posted on 09/24/13 by Kuma82...running it now on T-Mobile US P769 and runs perfectly.

Remember to make a backup...you know, just in case...
p.s. this rom runs fine with the black status bar mod and remove q-slide mod.

Thanks!
One more question though,
Will all my data still be on the internal SD Card? Or will it get erased?

Your data on the fake internal SD will be erased.
Your internal sd card data will not be erased, I just checked it out awhle ago. However, I would still backup your internal sd and place everything on your external sd. Performing a wipe data/factory reset inside artas182x cwm does not erase the internal sd. A real factory reset is suppose to wipe all of the user data.
Make a cwm backup before installing. I call the internal SD fake, because it's not separated from your data partition. The more stuff you put in internal, the less space you have for apps.
You should be able to flash my backup, and then restore your data (advance restore from external sd) without any problems. When you flash a kdz it does the same thing, changes the system and doesn't touch the data partition.
