Help with T769 Tmobile Recovery & Custom ROM on 4.0.4 - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

Hey guys I'm trying to install the Themed ROM for P769 Locked bootloader. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468880) I have the phone rooted from awhile back, i cant recall what i used to root it, the phone is still on 4.0.4, I am trying to put a recovery on it to install this ROM, but I dont see any recoveries for 4.0.4, I've seen a few different ones for JB but I'm not sure if its compatible.
This is the recovery it said to install (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095825) but the issue is that the link to the recovery was taken down, so I'm not sure what recovery I can install.
TLDR: I got a rooted T769 on 4.0.4 and i would like to install the themed ROM for T769 with Locked BL.

I'm guessing you mean that you have a P769 T-Mobile version.
Here is a link to the L9 Recovery Installer - https://www.dropbox.com/s/l8tegpmiyh8moa5/L9RecoveryInstaller_1.5.0.apk
Since your already rooted, just make sure that you download and install BusyBox by stericson from the playstore, before installing the L9 recovery installer. It needs BusyBox installed on your device for it to work properly.
Download the Kumakan themed ROM to your external sdcard.
Open the BusyBox app and click on and select the version of BusyBox to install to the device and select version 1.21.0 to install.
Then install the L9 recovery installer app. Open the app and select "Install recovery" then select "jb/ics stable version", then grant it root rights through SuperSU when asked for permission.
Once it says recovery is installed, select power down/reboot the device. After the phone starts to boot up you'll see your front keys blinking this means you have recovery success and to enter into recovery immediately press and hold volume(-) down button while lights are still blinking... You are now in recovery mode. I would highly recommend that you immediately preform a nandroid backup of your L9 right now before doing anything else. Select backup and restore, choose backup and choose backup to external sdcard.
Once the nandroid backup is done then you are free to flash the Kumakan themed ROM that you want to install. Just follow the directions from the ROM thread to install the ROM.

I follow all of the above steps to a tee. The recovery installs fine but when I try to reboot back into my rom all I can get is the white screen that says " encrypting" and " reset phone"... I'm on software version, P76920h.... any help would be appreciated.

Sorry for the late reply!
Did you make a nandroid backup when you installed and booted recovery?
If so, all you have to do is just reboot to recovery and restore your nandroid backup and you'll be back in businesses.

[Q] cant get into clockwork mod on vibrant

Ok this is probably a noob question,
i have a vibrant 2.2 tmobile, i just did the 3e recovery mod so that i could root the phone, i finally got it rooted and Im positive it is (terminal emulator says # when i type su,and superuser is working so Im pretty sure its rooted) so when i go into rom manager and flash clockworkmod recovery it always says it works but i cant get into the new recovery only the stock and i cant backup my original rom, does anyone know how to fix this so i can get into clockworkmod recovery?
Im new to rooting so sorry if this is a extremely noob question.
from stock recovery, select "reinstall packages"
I tried reinstalling the packages from the stock recovery but it takes me back to the stock recovery, Ive tried that many times but i never get the clockworkmod recovery, i have no idea why it wont enter the clockworkmod recovery? Can i install it without rom manager?
Download "update.zip" that is attached to this post....place it on the ROOT of your sdcard (not in any folders)
now this is the voodoo edition of clockwork....we are going to want to disable this to avoid issues (sorry, i dont have a normal clockwork available). so also download the disable voodoo .zip attached to this post.
DONT UNZIP EITHER FILE. DOWNLOAD THEM, AND PLACE THEM BOTH ON YOUR SDCARD AS IS!!
follow these instructions exactly:
1. place both files on root of sd
2. reboot into stock recovery
3. "reinstall packages"
3a. if it brings the red clockwork recovery, move onto step 4.
3b. if you dont see clockworkmod, choose reinstall packages again...if you see it move onto step 4.
3c. if you still dont see it, i cant help you further
4. now that you are in clockwork, DONT REBOOT OR FLASH ANYTHING YET, we need to disable voodoo
5. in clockwork choose "install zip from sdcard"
6. choose "choose zip from sdcard"
7. scroll to the disable voodoo zip and select that...confirm install, select "yes"
8. it should take less than a second, youll see "installation complete". (if you see "installation aborted" dont worry, just move on with the steps...see my explanation below)
9. Reboot before flashing anything, very important
10. you are now ready to flash using clockwork mod
PS - im not sure if youre familiar with voodoo, what it is/how it works....but the disable voodoo zip is just a precaution. im not sure if voodoo is built into this edition of clockwork, or if you actually have to have a voodoo kernel to actually be able to activate it. even though i think you need to have a compatible kernel, its better to play it safe.
with that said THERE IS A POSSIBLILTY THAT WHEN YOU FLASH THE DISABLE VOODOO, YOU MAY GET "INSTALLATION ABORTED"....dont worry continue on with teh steps, that just means that voodoo does not actually exist for you, which is probably ideal anyway
It still didn't work, i must be doing something Ive tried everything but it just wont go to clockworkmod.

Have you tried the toolbox?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954509
No i haven't tried toolbox yet but ill give it a shot.
I had a similar issue...
Are you getting the error "signature verification failed"?
No I haven't gotten a single error message, i flash clockworkmod recovery and it says success, I reboot into recovery i get the stock recovery, so Ive tried reinstall packages several times and i never get an error message although when I do hit reinstall packages it goes through in like 2 seconds but It never lets me into clockworkmod.
Use AIO Toolbox (recomended) -> install USB Vibrant drivers (if you don't have them, included with AIO Toolbox) and flash stock 2.1 rom (included in AIO Toolbox), after that use rom manager (from market) and install clockwork recovery, then download any kernel (for 2.1 rom of course) with root and flash it thru already installed CWM or flash ANY rooted custom rom - that's all (and it will take about 0,5h - not big deal).
toolbox is the way to go it will do everything for you just simply follow the steps from top to bottom. and you will be fine but before you go with tool box do read the noob guide it will surely make u understand the functionality of the toolbox. good luck
Hmmm......
Ok ill give that a try hopefully that will work.

This is the issue I am getting, even when using the files mentioned on this post.
How did you solve this problem?
EDIT: Just used the AIO Toolkit, restored to stock, rooted, installed ROM Manager, then went ahead and installed my custom ROM! HoneyGinger is talking to me and getting itself set up. Lovely!
Hey guys,
I was running 2.2 on my vibrant and was having issues with cwm as well. I followed the advice here and it worked great. Flashed Nero v3 and my phone is running like a champ!
Thanks again to everyone for their expertise.

CWM Recovery Touch + Installing ROMs

Hi,
I finally unlocked the BL on my Atrix (4.5.91 from AT&T)
I downloaded ROM Manager and installed CWM Recovery. I managed to boot into recovery from ROM Manager once but now it's not working.
I get the Motorola Logo and then it switches to the android logo with an exclamation mark
I was thinking of flashing the touch recovery, found information here:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/install-clockworkmod-recovery-touch-on-motorola-atrix-4g-how-to/
Is there a newer version? Are these instructions accurate? Do I need to be in fastboot to do this?
Also, I never flashed a ROM before
I really need a clear NOOB guide for doing this and would appreciate recommendations for ROM (if possible, ones that have Hebrew)
Thanks!!!
before you start digging an even bigger hole... STOP
you've already installed cwm so I don't know why you would need to install another version? Right now you need to get your phone up and running again.
Try these steps... power up phone holding the volume down button to get into recovery. Did that work? If so you should see the recovery menu - select data/facory reset and press power to select and then try and reboot system... does that work?
If not I think you'll need to flash the sbf file using rsd lite. Instructions are easy to find on here. Good luck.
I think I didn't explain myself properly.
The phone works 100%, I simply cannot boot into CWM recovery
when I power up holding the volume down button I get to what I think is the phone's default recovery. I get Fastboot as the first option and I can browse through with the volume down button
Anyways, what I would like to learn how to do is safely flash CWM Recover Touch (just because it's easier to use) and Flash ROMs
Thanks!!
Insure that rom manager is up to date, then reflash cwm recovery & try booting into recovery again.
www.HostileSlothRecords.blogspot.com
OK, I re-flashed CWM recovery and it's working now
Before I proceed, I would like to backup my current AT&T ROM.
1) do I do this through th Backup and Restore in the recovery?
2) is this called NANDROID backup?
3) is it safe to restore from it?
I created a backup and again it does not boot into recovery. same issue
Will I always need to reflash it after each time?
OK, it only boots into recovery once after I flash it. Even if I don't do anything
ROM Manager is the most recent version (5.0.0.7)
Recovery is the most recent version according to ROM Manager (5.0.2.0)
Anyone? please help

[Q] Xposed Framework

I have 2 questions. Does Xposed Framework work with LG P76921d? And 2, is it possible to install a recovery and back up your rom without an unlocked bootloader?

Xposed Framework works with P76920h. Using version 2.5 of the app now. (app_process:50, XposedBridge.jar:46)
GravityBox does not work. It will fill up ALL AVAILABLE internal space with an error log. Our ROM is unsupported anyway, so let it go.
Master Key multi-fix [2.0] DOES WORK.
(An aside: when did you update to 21d?)
It updated last year around august
Also, do you know any modules that might work? If not, there would be no point in installing xposed

I have the LGMS769 which is no different than the P769 and I have xposed framework, gravity box, battery themer, youtube adaway and have used multi window, xblast tools and some others without any issues.
Yes you can install cwm recovery for locked bootloaders with the L9 recovery installer from here -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095825
Download SuperSU and BusyBox by stericson from the play store. Install SuperSU then install BusyBox, open BusyBox and chose to install BusyBox v1.21.0 to system/xbin. Then install the L9 recovery installer, open the app and click on install ICS/JB stable recovery, once its installed it will tell you to reboot and when the device reboots the front keys will start flasing,(this means you have recovery access) press and hold down the volume (-) down button while the lights are flashing and the device will boot into the recovery. Once in recovery, immediately at this point make sure you perform a nandroid backup before exiting recovery.... this is just in case you get the "Encrypting Reset Phone" error when you exit recovery and boot to android OS, sometimes this will happen because of a BusyBox issue and rebooting back into recovery and flashing your nandroid backup will fix it.
Anyway that's it, you now have cwm recovery installed.
With the cwm for locked bootloaders you can perform and restore backups, flash zips and etc... But you cannot flash custom ROMs with it.
I'd recommend to now install xposed framework and whatever other modules that you want now that you have a nandroid backup. If you want to try a module then try it and see if it works... If it causes problems just uninstall it, if you still have problems or it causes a boot loop, boot to recovery and restore your nandroid backup and your fine.

Really depends on what you have on the device as far as apps, user data and so forth, but can be around 1-2 gb.
When you make the nandroid backup select to backup to the SD card and not onto the device.

I don't have that option. Do I just move the folder to the sd card?
EDIT: NVM I found it
After you get recovery in your phone... Go & Search this forum for @kuma82 's kumakan rom for locked bootloaders. Its the best I have found. I'm on cm9 for locked boot loader right now but I'm going to probably switch back to kumakan. He's already got the xposed framework & gravity box set up. Internal/external memory swap script too. Highly suggest it.

[Q] Rooting and Superuser

Hi! I've just rooted my device (Nexus 5) with Chainfire auto setup and I've downloaded Superuser by Clockworkmod. When I opened it up, it showed a message saying that I needed to update the SU binary, I went back to the Play Store, I read the description and I found a link, that allows me to install it from a recovery files. Once I downloaded it I opened the app again using the recovery files, Android crashed and rebooted itself, but during the boot it showed a dead android image (the one with the red triangle). I've turned off my device (Nexus 5) and then I've reboot it, now all works fine. I'm terribly scared, what the hell happened? It's my fault or Superuser just crashed?

You didn't do any damage to your device. What it seems like is that you only have root access and not a custom recovery like ClockWorkMod or TWRP so when you went back to the app it went to boot you to recovery to install them and it rebooted you to the stock recovery which does not allow installation of files that aren't signed with a specific factory key. You should be able to update the binary with the normal install mode on the Nexus without issues. If you want a custom recovery, there are various ways to do it, but the easiest would be with the GooManager app (free in the Play Store) where you grant it SU access, hit Menu > Install OpenRecoveryScript and let it do it's thing. Then when you boot to recovery, you will have a version of TWRP. This is a great custom recovery. Touch based, Fast. Allows you to back up all the important parts of the phone so you have a system backup - called a nandroid (which you should do and save to a safe spot) as well as install custom versions of android, themes, kernels, and all types of other mods as well as a way to do a complete factory and /sdcard wipe if ever needed.
Thanks GOD!

That's why I love XDA Developers, because there are people that knows what they are saying! Thank you so much. Now I'm wondering if I should install a recovery mod as you suggested. Do you think I have to install Tasker as well? My first idea was to install Xposed modules, after rooting my device, but when they say "be careful it could **** UP your device" I wonder "Why the hell you should say that when I want to install them?", so I still think about that. Thank you again!

Tasker is not necessary for any of this. Tasker is for automating your phone to do certain tasks under specific conditions you set up. Such as setting your phone to turn on wifi based on location. You certainly don't NEED a custom recovery, but if you like to play with your phone, then it is a great way to be able to make a complete backup to restore in case of emergency. When you install and activate the Xposed framework, it will also create a zip file on your storage that will disable it while flashed through a custom recovery. If things go super wrong, you can also restore the phone via PC using fastboot tools and factory img files from Google. What I like to do is:
Download factory img files and set up adb and fastboot
Root
Recovery
Nandroid
Backup Nandroid and complete storage to PC
Flash whatever roms or mods
If it completely bricks and you lose access to storage then restore system from PC then redo recovery, copy files and nandroid back to storage and restore backup
bam - back in business.

[RECOVERY LOCKED/ND7] Safestrap Recovery v4.00 B01 [2015-11-28]

VERIZON SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 (T0LTE)
PLEASE READ READ READENTIRE OP
"ALL MAJOR WORK DONE BY HASHCODE SO GO GIVE HIM SOM THANKS.DO NOT POST ANY BUG OR ISSUE COUSED BY THIS RECOVERY IN ORIGINAL THREAD BY HASHCODE, POST HERE AND I WILL HELP YOU."
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
BETA v4.00-B01 (ND7/KK)
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 2.6.1.0 (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots (3-4 on the S3 due to partition size and internal space) for flashing ROMs. NOTE: The bigger you make the /data partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
[NEW FOR v4.00+ KK Safestrap] Requirement: Uninstall old Safestrap application.
[NEW FOR v3.75+ KK Safestrap] Requirement: busybox. Grab "Busybox" from the Play Store and run the installer.
Once installed, open up the Safestrap application, Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
INSTALL VIDEO by DMX: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RZI...e_gdata_player
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting (or the hard button underneath each option).
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
Push the APK up to your sdcard.
Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.
Open your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button
Browse to where you pushed the APK
Click on it and install like normal
Once installed, open the APK, Grant SU access, Use the "Install Recovery" button.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- Sometimes the installation doesn't work correctly. If you don't see the splashscreen after a rebooting. Install Safestrap again. (DEBUGGING THIS AS I GET TIME)
- Busybox is now required for the Safestrap APK to work correctly

1st!! Everything works fine. Multiple rom slots, backup/restore etc.
Thanks for this Mo!
on ND7 OTA. rooted via ghettoroot. Installed a previous version of safestrap: Safestrap-T0LTE-3.72-B02
it worked but didnt work with rom slots. I uninstalled the previous recovery and then uninstalled safestrap. Then installed this new one. Keeps not installing the safestrap recovery. Any ideas?
Tried doing a system wipe then installed clean 4.00 safestrap. no work..
Tried then system wipe and doing kingroot instead of ghettoroot. same result

Does busybox installed! From the app too.
What's updated over the previous versions?
Upgrade from 3.72 on Verizon Note 2
I am using 3.72 and wonder if I should upgrade to the latest version. It must be completely removed and not updated as per OP instructions under content?
Thanks

If you are locked bootloader then AOSP ROMs not for you.
The recovery wont flash any kernel and lack of kernel wont boot the ROM.

The only way to unlock the bootloader at this point is to have this done. They will downgrade your Note 2 to 4.1.2 which can be unlocked. Sorry it is what it is.
i follow everything but when i install ss from the app, it doesnt give me an option to reboot recovery , im on 4.4.2
