I got my lg l9, tried to go into recovery with vol up + home + power. Then I got a pic from LG service center, do I need to unlock bootloader before installing custom rom, if yes, how? If no, how I go into recovery?

You must unlock your phone bootloader before install any custom rom.

What is your problem? Can you flash kdz successfully? Please give more information so other people can help you.
Your phone model is P760, right? What is your original rom version on your phone before flash new one?
Which kdz you flash?
And what the problem with your phone?
Got some really good problems now,
If I try to flash the V20H_00.kdz, the tool crashes, i don't know how or why, LG mobile support tool detects mobile, but doesnt want to install a software since the last version is installed already, indeed if I start up the phone, I get a white screen....
I NOW CAN COME INTO CWM, but problem is, I can't install rom because of a problem, it denies, number 7 fould. Maybe because my bootloader still isn't unlocked?
I really don't get it since I had a custom rom already before without any problems... ;S

You can get status 7 error in cwm if your phone model is incompatible with rom.
But I want to make sure your phone boot loader is already unlocked. Did you unlock it? To check this please boot into S/W update mode and see if there're any text print at top of that screen.

Make sure that your bootloader is unlocked and that your flashing gsm ROMS meant for the dream not the cdma version of the g1.

In order to flash custom ROMS your devices bootloader must be unlocked. By default the g1 ships with a locked bootloader that prevents you from installing custom ROMS. You can go to htcdev.com/bootloader select HTC dream from the device list and follow the instructions. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I would also suggest try reformatting your SD card, then putting a ROM on the SD card that you know is compatible with your phone and has worked for you in the past and flash that.
Didnt work
So, will anybody help me?
At this stage I would recommend that you try and re flash your device back to stock, by installing the stock ROM that it shipped with from the factory. By doing this you will have a clean slate to start from and can then try to root the device and flash a custom ROM after that.

Follow this guide found here, start with the section: Downgrading the Firmware. After you have done that move onto the section Rooting the HTC Dream, then once you have completed that section move onto Installing a Custom Recovery Image and Amon_Ra's Recovery: Recommended. After you complete these steps you will be ready to flash a custom ROM, here is how to flash Cyanogenmod 6 for the HTC Deam. Let me know if you still have questions .

I've tried the L9 recovery installer. Matter of fact, I tried everything that they have to offer. I'm on the Jellybean firmware and my bootloader is already unlocked so I don't need that. When I try rebooting into recovery, it either boots regularly or shows me the dead android screen if you know what I'm talking about.

if it's unlocked then you should know that flashing p760 kdz will make your touch screen mirrored and touch wonky. The L9 recovery installer will install a bootstrapped recovery. to flash proper cwm you will need nandroid manager from the market or flash it via fastboot.

i looked it up and it said i needed to update cwm, but is there a way I can do that through clockworkmod itself?
It looks like you are trying to install a ROM with a different version on it. You need to find a ROM that is made for your phone.

I think the easiest way is to use LG mobile support tool. refer to this member post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2456558&highlight=encrypt
- Boot you phone to S/W update mode
- Run LG mobile support tool (B2CAppSetup.exe)
- Select recover you phone from menu and wait for about an hour
- *Dont forget to comment lg server that you add in host file for offline flash
There're also other way to fix it, if you can boot into Stock recovery by Holding vol- + ... (I can't remember ), but this combo may hard reset your phone if you don't have stock recovery. In stock recovery mode you can use adb to push and replace busybox. I don't try this myself but some member unbrick their phone by this method.

Hello XDA members,
I was hoping somebody would help me out, I'm fairly new when it comes to installing custom roms so I require your patience. I don't know how to install a custom rom onto my Bell Atrix HD MB886, everytime I try it says abortion failed, what can I do to fix this. I have wiped data and all that probably 5 times in the past week alone. I would like to know how to successfully install roms without errors. Both the times that I have done this I had my bootloader unlocked, and I had clockword recovery mod latest version 6.0.4.4. I bought an SD card today to help install the roms because otherwise I can't do it from my internal storage. I really hope somebody can help me out.

Hi there. A failed abortion certainly seems like an issue... I guess I am not totally clear on the status here. You say that you had CWM. Do you still have it? Bootloader is still unlocked? What rom are you trying to install? Are you certain it's for the Bell version and not like the AT&T one? What is the exact error message?

No I don't have it atm as I just wiped the data/cache last night but will I already have CWM, I just need to unlock the bootloader and try again...I'm trying to install this one:
Android 4.4.2 KitKat Mokee Rom, and it says the version is a nightly. Yes I'm positive it's the Bell Version as I purchased it at a Bell Store and my carrier is Bell. The error message is "Installation Aborted." It begins installing, and then halfway through I get that error message. How do I fix this?
I figured you knew what phone you had. I was wondering if you had a rom built for the Bell version vs an ATT one. But since you are using a CM based rom, it obviously doesn't matter. Curious as to why you are bothering with relocking the bootloader? But I suggest to either try a different version of the rom, or to change your recovery to one of the Philz Touch versions as that's what some of the other users in that thread for the rom for your phone were using. You can find them here:

No I was bothering to unlock it again, not lock it. Where can I find different versions for the 4.4.2 Mokee Rom? I've tried using the Philz Touch version: Motorola Atrix HD One Click Philz recovery installer and when I tried it a couple of times it said it failed to install although I'm not sure why. I came across these images the other day but how do I use the .img files on my device, as I'm not sure to proceed from here once I have them downloaded.

No I was bothering to unlock it again, not lock it. Where can I find different versions for the 4.4.2 Mokee Rom? I've tried using the Philz Touch version: Motorola Atrix HD One Click Philz recovery installer and when I tried it a couple of times it said it failed to install although I'm not sure why.

I was curious as why you relocked it in the first place.
Where are you getting Mokee from that doesn't have a link to their Downloads?

thanks will try this out and let you know later how it works! I download the custom rom from true android blogspot.ca (can't post links just yet, annoying).

Right on. Well, you should bookmark the thread here on XDA because that's typically where the action happens.

Okay so I'm trying it now and the program won't even open :/
Odd. I just downloaded it to test and I didn't have any issues. If you can't get the actual application / exe file to open, then just use the Main-Skip.bat. Does the same thing.
If it doesn't open still, make sure that you have your anti-virus off as sometimes those interfere with programs like this. Might also try as admin.

Okay I wasn't looking at the actual .exe sorry, I got it to work and all I installed the Philz One Touch Recovery from that program, just downloaded a different rom and all and then I select the apply update from external storage and when it gets to the verifying update package, it gave me the same error message as yesterday, Installation Aborted.
So again, how do I fix this, am I doing something wrong? Why won't my custom rom install?

I don't think that is the most updated version. What's the version number of the recovery that was installed? It should be listed on the main page of it when you boot there. I was suggesting to use one of the new ones. It might have something to do with the SELinux support that KK roms need. You just have to put the img file in the tools folder and rename the new one the same. But here's no other error that shows up other than Installation Aborted? I was thinking usually it would have an error code or some other message.Have you checked the md5 of the rom zip to make sure it's not corrupted (if the dev provided it)?

Use one of the new versions of that program or to use the latest CWM which I have been. Okay I really don't know how to do that and where to move it to, how do I do such a thing? No it just says Installation Aborted... How would I do that? And yes I downloaded the new rom directly from his site.

Look in the tools folder of the zip you downloaded. Download the newest Philz Touch img from the other link from earlier. Rename it to replace the one in the tools folder. Redo the recovery install. But you didn't say what version you already have.

Okay that did the trick, properly got philz recovery installed, did the install again, this time it worked, clicked reboot and now it's stuck at the Dual Core bootlogo screen

Did you do a full wipe, including wiping /system?
If you didn't, it should be under Mounts and Storage > Format /system of something of that sort.

Pop the battery out for a bit, then pop it back in and hold Volume Down while powering up. Should get you into fastboot where you can skip to the recovery.

The battery doesn't come out of my phone as you can't take the back off. I got into fast boot easily them selected recovery and nothing happened, I think my phone is screwed

Oh yea, forgot you have to undo the screws on the bottom. So you scroll down to hit recovery and use the Power button to select and it doesn't do anything? That's odd.. Try and reflash the recovery since you can still get to fastboot. If that doesn't work, you're not totally screwed since you can still get to fastboot, that means you should be able to restore it to stock and start over.
Alternatively, if you have fastboot set up, you could make sure that philz touch is in the fastboot folder and use this command:
fastboot boot recovery nameofphilztouchfile.img
If you don't have fastboot, then just grab this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 , drop the recovery img in that folder and open the CMD prompt on your computer and change directories to it and run the command.
