HI guys,
I came across this korean website blog.naver.com/PostView.nhn?blogId=dlrbdnjs10&logNo=10168561431, I wonder if I could flash this after unlocking bootloader with FreeGee?
I am on E97510f-SEA-XX, would FreeGee be able to unlock this bootloader?
Thanks!
Unlock device with FreeGee.
Place the rom and gapp's at the root of the internal SD card.
Reboot into recovery, by pressing the volume button up and holding the power button down at the same time.
Do a nandroid/backup!!!
Do a factory reset.
Wipe cache.
Wipe Dalvik cache in advanced options.
Then head into mounts an storage.
Format system.
Format data.
Format cache.
Then go into the install menu, flash the rom and gapp's.
Remember to do yet another factory reset, before you reboot!!!
Check this out... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1842 and this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1843
I actually know the steps/procedure.
What i am unsure is 1) whether FreeGee can unlock this version of mine. 2) if i could flash the liquid smooth rom (notice no one posted it on Android Development sub-forum
Thanks man
Oh okey
This site is down for a few hours, but check it out when it's up and running again... http://lap.so/vbfe
There you will find liquid rom and carbon rom, for our device (e975) plus a few others and they do work
And by the way if you have the e975 version, you will be able to use Freegee to unlock device
I recommend yu nt to format system/boot on safer side.....!! also run freegee once to unlock the bootloader and take a backup of the freegee files to lappy/pc.... It may help yu at some tym im future....,!!

Well, i agree... But as he stated before, he knows all of this.
His actuel question was, would Freegee be compatible with the lgog e975 europe version...
And if yes, would he be able to flash this rom he came across at some site.

@hasan4791 have u flashed custom rom on ur E975?
If you follow the steps we mentioned before, to the letter,
then yes, you can flash any compatible rom.
However, if you don't feel confident enough doing this,
then i would adwise you to, go trough the more detailed guidelines/discriptiones.
If you look hard enough, you will find these guidelines posted here, in this same general section,
that you posted this thread.
Good luck unlocking/flashing

a few more questions.
- what is the difference between the free and paid version of FreeGee in playstore? The free version will unlock too right?
- will Houcha kernel (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246152) work with liquid smooth?
No difference.the paid version is maid so we can support the devs.i bought it just for that.consider it a donation to shelnutt2.
About houcha kernel,i'm not sure,but if liquidsmooth source is official cm10.1,then it won't work.different sources,cm is based on lg's source,while houcha is based on a modifies nexus4(mako) source.so it won't work.

There is a new firmware out that I'm running on my F320 now. Its F320K11a completely stock. However its a update.zip flash, so you need to install recovery and then flash it. I have flashed this over a F320S and L Model no problems. So its safe to say it will work on all F320's make a CWM backup first and place in on your hard drive just incase.
Changes include now in the menu nav settings you can now high the menu buttons for most apps.
Source and download
Its a 2.1GB download
Thanks for that my friend,we do need some love for our korean variants also lol
The download is 1.9gb for me and the name file is F320_11A_CUSTOM_ROM.rar
I hope im not downloading a wrong one...
But is this a Stock update from LG Korea or a custom rom ?

Yes the korean model needs some love, really its the best version with a removable battery and mircosd support
Its not a custom rom, I've installed its stock carrier F32oK Olleh firmware 11A, it just installed like a custom rom as its not a KDZ but a update.zip
You need the CWM touch mod apk installer here to install it. You should make a cwm backup to an external source before flashing the update zip. And later factory reset if your coming from F320L or F320S to stop and errors.

Not sure, which recovery are you using? I can test for you. If I install it I loose my mircosd card paths and can access my sd.
Open recovery,its ok tho i did it already now i need to see how it goes lol
There was no need of a clean set up tho,it s an otan so its supposed to go above any firmware.No problems or errors so far and i kept all my files and setting intact.

No dice. Rebooting to recovery even with that just leaves me staring at the boot image.
EDIT: I remember reading that those who took the KitKat OTA got a different boot image that makes going back to Jellybean difficult, if not impossible. Could that have anything to do with this?

Bah, pay me no mind. I was trying to flash a CWM recovery because that's what I'm familiar with. I tried the one you just named and it works fine.
Sorry about that!
Just an FYI I couldn't get rashr to even look for the file so I tried flashify and it installed recovery with ease.
Thanks for the links attack. I don't like to try these flashing apks without a recommendation.

Are you Fastboot flashing?
Guys KEEP IN MIND:
These are not officials, these are fairly beta builds. You will get errors, I was hoping this would reach some crack-flashers.
That's basically who this is for.

How can we get onto official CM then?
I know it has something to do with the kernel. We can't downgrade the kernel to the one CM is using? Or we have to wait until CM move up to kernel 3.4?

The latest Nightly is from February, which is 4.4.2.
Honestly keep checking that website, and check XDA.
Since the bootloader has been unlocked there should be a lot of movement / action in the dev section.
I would honestly not flash anything older, I mean feel free to mess around w/ kernel that are newer than 4.4.2 on CM.
I can't promise anything if you're on stock. I hope that helped at least a bit.
Didn't think this deserved its own thread, but could someone on 4.4.2 upload their systemui.apk real quick?

Thats why everything is on chinese, thats the first kitkat beta firmware that leaked, if you want english you can upgrade it to B510 or B511 since those are the official english ones without the chinese crap.

When i go into rom manager v5.5.3.7 and try install a custom rom or even just tap boot to recovery i get an error at the loading screen with the LG logo and it sits there.

You could try using LG Flash Tool to go back to stock 4.1.2 (E98010k) and then using FreeGee to bypass and go from there. But idk if that'll work.

I don't think that's possible. You're going to have to flash back to an older version using lg flash tools. If you need to back up anything like texts and contacts, use G Cloud. If you need game data/other data related to specific apps backed up, use Helium. If you're attached to stock try flashing a stock ROM, it will be very similar to your experience now. That'll ensure you get the latest KitKat and still get stock experience... you can always go AOSP too.
thanks... I was hoping to just not have to Flashtools my phone again =P and since its been a while since I checked the forums I wasnt sure if 20h was sorted out yet or not.

I found this elsewhere trying to unlock my e980 that was on 20h when I got it.
OK so I found that G Pro KK recovery elsewhere and installed it but wasn't sure what to do from there.. Which option did you choose when running it? Flash recovery, reboot, or reboot recovery? I tried to reboot to recovery and I got into a CWM recovery, but at that point wasn't sure if I was really there or if I needed to flash the recovery from there or from the app.
I'm dying to get rid of the stock ROM on this thing but there are more steps involved than my previous devices.
Thanks!

All the APK does as I have found out is 'unlocks' the recovery access. After I ran that app I installed Freegee from the app store and installed the CMW recovery from there just to make sure it all was installed and correctly accessible. at that point you just need to download the ROM that you are intending to install and download it. put the zip somewhere in your directory. boot to recovery wipe the necessary mediums and then install from the app and CWM will take care of the rest. Most of the forum threads that have the links to the ROMs will have full instructions on how to install that certain ROM. I can supply links to some if need be. NOT MY THREADS but ones I found helpful.

installing the ROM isn't an issue for me, it's getting the recovery installed.
What process did you do after starting up the G Pro Recovery app? install recovery, reboot, then run freegee?

Yes. Open and run the G Pro Recovery app, once that is done you need to reboot. Install Freegee and open it. I installed CWM. You can use whatever you want. Then I reboot again, once the phone comes back up I used clockwork mods recovery manager to get in and out of recovery. Also, I pulled my SD card out of the phone prior to rooting as I would lose access to it after I did the process. So just to be safe you might want to do that.

Which root did you use?
Once you take the update then root your device again you have to do a factory reset on your phone in order to flash a recovery. Currently running E98020I, been there, done that! G Pro KitKat then FreeGee. Mic check 1 2, 1 2

Roottool is an easy way to go Amigo

I found this elsewhere trying to unlock my e980 that was on 20h when I got it.
OK so I found that G Pro KK recovery elsewhere and installed it but wasn't sure what to do from there.. Which option did you choose when running it? Flash recovery, reboot, or reboot recovery? I tried to reboot to recovery and I got into a CWM recovery, but at that point wasn't sure if I was really there or if I needed to flash the recovery from there or from the app.
I'm dying to get rid of the stock ROM on this thing but there are more steps involved than my previous devices.
Thanks!

If you just want to install the recovery, get an app call flashify from the play store. Install the app, then download and then flash the twrp .IMG file that you've gotten from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3144369
