Here you go guys I figured there to much clutter on the other thread so maybe this will help us root THIS phone and not have other phone's in there. So please don't post comments or questions about any phone other then the USA MetroPCS LG L70.

I honestly wouldn't trust it. If it's this difficult to get a proper root, even on xda, then he might just be a scammer.

1.) Does it have all the regular T-Mobile bloatware?
2.) Does it include working wifi-calling?
If these are both true, it really is a T-Mobile KDZ.
One last question.
3.) Is the digitizer more or less sensitive that the 10e firmware? Thank You.

I have owned 6 P769BK devices so far. All of them have been difficult to root. Try the official root a bunch of times with reboots in between. It may work eventually. that is what happened for me.
I wonder if its an "official" update that just wasn't ready which is why it was pulled.

I think you misunderstood, or I used bad grammar. I meant to say that back when I was on v10e I rooted first try. The one I found was P769BK, not P769BKGO. Still trying to download P769BKGO, but every time I try it says:
Forbidden
Your client is not allowed to access the requested object.
as for the differences, I can't say, as I don't have the latter one yet.
sorry for the confusion.
also, if anybody does have the v10e or v10g p769bkgo kdz, could you send me a fileshare link, seeing as apparently I've downloaded and flashed the wrong kdz, even though it works perfectly

someone please help
+1 this.I'm not gonna even bother flashing a TMO ROM. Too much headache.
I'm also frustrated that there are no kdz files or ROMs specifically for the L9 MetroPCS version.
Lgms769 is exactly like P769. Another thing (to OP) you would know if you unlocked the bootloader. Unlocking bootloader requires flashing euro kdz 20b, and you will mess your phone up if you don't do some reading.

but with the P769 firmware, does the phone still function properly on MetroPCS's 4G ??? And is there no simple way to unlock it? Seems to be way too complicated.
Check phandroid there is a cyanogen mod by bobzhome and I believe they are near perfect (both versions).

Yes it operates fine on the T-Mobile ROM. MetroPCS and T-Mobile have merged together.

I downloaded rom toolbox and ran the cpu info script and the lgms769 has a lg p769 board in it, i have root and recovery on lgms769 v10b so its ok i guess im woeking on a custom rom.

On OP is a tweak to add move 2 sd, and a swap script that will allow you to install large games. Since you have rom toolbox just use it to change the build.prop and add the swap script (set at boot)

Metro already allows moving to SD card. That's where the script idea came from I believe

I added it to the build.prop, not unless they changed something when it finally came out. That option was not present in the build.prop of the kdz I got from lg. I found this out by comparing the build.prop of wind and T-Mobile.

I am a newbee to embedded devices, can someone help me or let me know what I can do with this mobile (LGM769 MetroPCS)?
Can the bootloader be unlocked and can I run custom ROMs on it? I read a lot of posts which just confused me (Maybe it's my Multiple Sclerosis) maybe I am just thick either way some help would be much appreciated. I know this mobile is getting old but it's the only thing I have.

No brother, this phone is definitely a nightmare. Unlocking the bootloader is the tricky part. I haven't tried myself, can't afford for my phone to be down while attempting to unlock the bootloader. There are those who have succeeded on the first try and there are those who have tried many times and failed.
If you have plenty of free time on your hands, then I'd give it a shot. But, before you do, make sure you have LGs drivers installed on your PC as well as the OMAP4 fastboot drivers. Because of the OMAP4 fastboot drivers, this phone is practically unbrickable. Just search the threads in the L9 forums for 'fastboot'.
As for your device getting old, I still have a Optimus One variant, P509, that's still running today. And there's a KitKat ROM for it too. I really wish the L9 was as easy to manage as my Optimus T is.
Best of luck
Thank you for the reply I'll check it out because this is my only mobile right now. Might have to rethink it. I read the whole thread and noticed that this so-called "devil phone" is not worth the effort. Next time I will just purchase a mobile that has been boot-loader unlocked and root potential and be done with it..lol
Cheers!

Will you be updating these to include instructions for users with 10o update (shoved down their throats by AT&T with no way to cancel or reject the update, like myself) Now with no easy way to root+twrp this device. Without twrp or cwm, there is no way I am going to be experimenting with roms. :crying: There a lot of different responses and varied results in thet "root your G2" and "Installing TWRP on G2 all versions" threads. Some people get bricks while some can flash it smoothly, it seems nobody knows what is the difference that' causing this inconsistency.

Doesn't matter if you ever had it, you can still put it on. I'm sure you are on 11c, otherwise stump wouldn't say its patched.

You can try using LGFlashTool to downgrade to ZV4 with the stock .tot, then rooting from there, then installing the latest TWRP and then upgrading to a ZV8 ROM. I can't remember exactly what guide I used to do this myself a few days ago, but I know it involved wolfgart's files (link below) and some hints from the BarePop thread in Original Development. Look around page 16 or 17 for the posts by @RHall1340 .

You can root ZV8. But you can't install custom recovery.
