Hi Guys, Today i downloaded stock V20G ROM for LG P500 from this post:--http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140862, by dr. notor. The main purpose was to build my own custom ROM in the dsxida's ROM Kitchen, using this ROM. After downloading, i found that the ROM wasn't in .ZIP format, its just flashable with the LGMDP tool, hence unusable with Kitchen.....Is there any way to convert it in .zip format for use with kitchen??? I didn't find any post related to this. Please help me !! I want to start building my own Custom ROM....
C'mon!! No replies??? There is no way to do it???? Devs plz reply...........

I was unable to understand what that unyaffsmbm was.............
Read it once more and found that its a downloadable file & is to be copied in home\user folder.
Thanks for your reply!!! Finally i am ready to go!!!!

you also could have done this:
flash using LGMDP
pull system files via adb
make a flashable zip for it
and put it in the kitchen.
there are a lot of ROMs already like yours, btw

I was going to make a kernel based on cm7 kernel, so how to start.
And how to add frequencies.
Adding over clicked frequencies is the main purpose, please help me somebody.
I want to make it for HTC explorer but there are nearly no devs who can help me that's why I am asking here

> You can PM kernel experts.. like TA and DJnoXD.. they are both good persons and they could help you out.
I really appreciate your work. Few weeks back.. i was trying to convince every Forum Admins to get
Explorer and similar devices.. a forum or atleast a sub-forum.. and happy to see they accepted our request..
Being a Lagacy Device.. they gave Explorer and others a complete forum!!

if u have some prior coding experience then adding frequencies, adding governors should be a piece of cake...
if no,
then you better check the gb cm7 rom for optimus one..try to find out the commit where actual work was started by the cm team on the kernel..you will find out how they added frequencies, governors and everything...:good:

I would suggest you to try compiling the cm kernel for your phone whitout changes. (cm wiki)
After you succeed compiling the kernel, test if it is working.
Now you have a base you could start working on.
Next step could be to change something. (frequencies for the p500 have to be changed here: arch/arm/mach-msm/acpuclock.c)
I saw this topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895472) and I installed the v10j firmware on my LG p705. Sucess. But i can´t root it, just because I only can see de img extracted form .kdz file on the folder when it got´s locked and start to be used to flash... Is there a way to create a kdz file with this modified system.img.ext4 ? What can I do to be more lucky to root this phone?
Thanks!
Hi,you can use the script by bn4dry.it can be found in the the thread by pkastaras for p700.i. forget which page.

The computer should just have LG drivers installed.Run the script and select the 2nd option-special. Don't forget the two lines when the phone boots the 2nd time.Read the thread thoroughly ,this tool works,it worked for me with same version 10j.
Use this modified one

Edit- it should have supersu try to use rootchecker or titanium back up find out

Hey,
I tried that old-school a lot of times and finally I could root it. When I saw "lg keyboard has stoped", I really knew that finally worked. The strange thing is that the system haven't came with a superuser app, so I installed "superuser".
Btw, thanks for helping. Around 0:30 (gmt -3) thr procedure got sucess, just few before your post. I thanked both your posts!

Looks like the devs are having trouble to unlock the bootloader, and thats why we dont have great roms like cyanogen for our phones. I hope that they can unlock it, not only for cm10, but overclocking tools too...

Seems like its complicated, at times we appear too close then again too far,does it mean the fellows at LG managed to lock their device in a manner that no one can find out ?

Maybe because of L7 isn´t a "best seller" cell phone, we have less developers to this cell phone... If Optimus was like a Galaxy SII, surely would have been unlocked...
I´m just waiting to the Jelly Bean update. I was a little lucky that my model isn´t from Brazil (brazillian model is p705f, with a very old actual firmware, like v10c), so I can put p700 or p705 newest firmwares, but i´ts a bit boring that we can´t go ahead in that phone customizing..
I was looking on the web for some kind of kdz file extraction and re-zip tool that could help with inserting the root file AND possibly the V20B bootloader unlock function for all of our L9 variants. Being a P769 user I would definitely gravity to using our phone first! But I found this link in android and it shows you how to extract a kdz via LG UPTESTEX MOD. Sound familiar, well it should because that's what we use to offline flash our phones. So it's saying that we can extract, modify then merge the files back INTO A KDZ for flashing. If this is true then we can manipulate the ROM! but I'm no devy so I can't so do. Here is the link for anyone curious about it:
Oh my apologies if I didn't put this in the right forum. I always wan to place things in the general forum so that I get maximum eyeage. But I placed it here for dev's to see.
Thanks for sharing! I hope the devs here can use this to their advantage! :thumbup:

Maybe we can load up cyanogenmod with the stock kernel a-la 2nd init with this method. THANKS
Well nice thought, but I think it wont work. I think so for a simple reason. We already tried that over at the p970 forum. I dont really remember of the dev who tried it, but it was either navossoc or xonar, if I remember correctly. He said something like, it s possible to extract the bin files, but he receives some nonsense code and doesnt know, how to interpret and put them back together. If you need the source, pm me please and I ll look it up

I see my friend, how will I know if it is the proper custom roon that I'm going to use? how I can prevent my phone of getting brick?
Just type "list of custom roms for **your phone model** " in google.
This list varies for each and every model,brand,motherboard specifications etc.
Be carefull. I hard bricked my phone once. Now its not even switching on. I have thrown it in dust-bin,it became useless

Now if there are no instructions, you usually just have to flash it and then reboot.

As of now Sir i have a problem with my phone because i didnt know that it is not right to transfer files from my phone storage to sd card like system files, im now in android system recovery and dont know what to do with my phone, i hope some one will help me in this trouble cause i dont know if this is the situation they called brick. thanks for your reply, i will gladly appreciate it.
This is the whole story regards my current problem
early this morning as i open my phone, i used to think that if i will transfer all files from my phone "system" in my 8g sd card it will be helpfull to lessen the burden of my processing ram that is 489mb available. I attemp to use root explorer to transfer the system files on my sd cards. i cut it in the root explorer option and paste it in my sd cards that is 8g. seconds passed it transfer files but as minute goes by it stock up and dont run anymore. i used to press the reboot system which is power botton + up volume and hold it in a couple of seconds. and then i stock in the system recovery and dont know what to do next. everytime i install some zip. files it is written that E: SIGNATURE VERIFICATION FAILED INSTALLATION ABORTED. thats the whole story. hope someone will help me to fix this issue.thanks for your time reading my message.

Thanks a lot my friend, anyway how i can install link2sd.apk if i cant run my phone because it is in the system recovery mode? will it run in the system recovery mode if i will download it in my sd card? thanks again
No..it wont work like that buddy!

Sorry man! Your stock rom was collapsed.....i got the same situation(error signature) with my samsung galaxy tab. Then i came to know that it was soft bricked.
Then i kept my phone in download mode and flashed stock rom(available in official samsung site) through Odin software using my laptop. Then is worked like before
So now what you do is......
Open google..and search for "How to soft unbrick **your phone model** "
You may find something which is helpfull.

Can you access your normal launcher and all that or is the recovery the only thing that works?
