Does current freegee boot.img work fine for you?
If the answer to #3 is no, please upload a boot.img for me.
For you e975 folks, support is coming, I'm reworking the entire backed to make future new device and version easier. Right now though I just need this info.
Thanks in advance.
Device: F180L

FreeGee does not work. Device is successfully rooted. Attempted using latest version from Play Store. Please post terminal command to extract boot.img

Shellnutt said FG doesnt support korean 4.1.2 boot yet.
Also he said he can provide a steps (if really needed) and promised the support will be added in a week.
That was almost 1.5 month ago

How is rom porting related to korean JB support in the freegee?
Ah, probably found the reason of misunderstood: I bought the freegee app (donate), the app still doesnt support korean JB at the moment.

Okay please read this carefully.
Freegee has gone under a near complete rewrite in order to make it easier to add support for new varients and software versions. It's now a very simply process for me and doesn't involve updating the app anymore. This also will allow me to add newer and better recovories.
That said this is a highly beta version. Lot of debugging code is still in there, I just need more people to test it. I've used it fine, but someone else soft bricked. I've tried to get people on irc to test so I can help in real time but alas I didn't get many offers at all. So I'm posting this here. Please though don't use this unless you know how to kdz/lgnpst back to stock. This might blow up your phone, until I get people to actually test it more than myself and skdubg did I can't know.

As far as not being able to unlock, I'd like to get a few more people to test it to make sure you aren't one of the special ones that need the sbl stack in addtion to new bootloader. That is what skdubg for his eu E975 needed.

Not eventually, it came out yesterday in Europe. It's exactly the same phone as the P930, but the LTE antennae are tuned for european frequencies, and the software is LG's generic instead of AT&T branded.
@aremcee,
The LTE antenna tuning you are referring to, is that done at the hardware level or is it controlled by the baseband firmware? As I'm living in Europe currently with a P930, I'm quite interested to know if my device may be able to use LTE over here.

It's hardware. The antenna is too short for the 1800/2600 wavelengths, since it was tuned to AT&T's 700. If your carrier does 800 MHz it will work, but sub-optimally.
Can someone confirm if this is ics based.

We now have working exploit for out Canadian friends .
We are publicly releasing Bells, Rogers and Telus. This is the same 0.5v that removes LG Security.
Further details can be read in thecubed's post here.
Due to the nature of the varients make sure you download the correct file!
Bell:

Rogers:

Telus:
http://downloads.codefi.re/shelnutt2/optimusg/telus/private/freegee/FreeGee-0.5_Telus.zip
Currently, the download is Windows-only. I will make a OSX/Linux/Windows version soon
Also Bell, Telus and Rogers are now supported by the 1 click freegee app! This is $1, and the pc method will always remain free. This is just for those lazy and want to donate .
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.shell.freegee
Worked perfectly! Thanks again to Team Codefire for high levels of awesomeness.
Now bring on the roms! lol
Thank you! :highfive:

If it disables LG Security does that mean we can safely uninstall google apps like movies and books?
Im just trying to make sure I have all my ducks in a row here, so I appologize if this is a redundant question. Which recovery are we supposed to use?? In the Sprint development forum there is a tethered version of CMW. Do we use that?? Or, is there something included in the FreeGee exploit? Or even still, do we just use the stock recovery?

Freegee includes CWM. Once it's done you can boot into the bootloader and get to cwm, or use adb and reboot into recovery that way (easier, because we can't see what we're selecting in the bootloader at the moment, vol down twice then power gets you there )
Just so I am clear you arent able to see the fastboot options because of LG's doing right? Not because of the exploit made here? Or was it because of the exploit and that was just an unfortunate side effect of doing it this way that would be fixable in a future update?

unfortunately the bootloader isnt unlocked so we cant flash custom roms to the og pro...from other users it seems that that is true of the international versions as well. next time a lil digging might save u the trouble of asking. there is rooting available so u can make some tweaks...at least for the att version. havent looked into weather it would work on other versions, maybe a dev will answer that for u. as for the docomo gui, the simplest answer to that is just install nova launcher or go launcher or some other launcher and use those themes, i used to use go launcher a lot and it has tons of customizations and controls u can tweak.
That current root method should work for all versions of this phone.
Oh
Thanks for your answers,
1) so the versions for the F220K doesn't fit to the L-04e?
2) can someone give me a link to the root method? (i afraid to make mistake...)
3) the docomo is not only gui it takes control also on the Contacts and some of the features that google usually do.

k1mu has created a USABLE root tool for the RAZR M, originally intended on the Samsung S4.
Low and behold it works on our latest firmware 98.30.1, 9.8.1Q-94-1.
There are many others that have confirmed that this works as well as me.
<MOD EDIT> Visit the original thread HERE
Credits go to k1mu.
Make sure the device is connected via USB to a computer and make sure USB debugging is enabled.
Simply unzip, and run the .bat file and follow the instructions.
Good luck!

I agree. Without the detailed directions in the original post in the VZ S4 forum, important directions to make this work is lost.
For example, I'm going to be posting directions this weekend that will allow this to work on a number of devices without using adb.
I'm trying to make this better, run on more devices, make it faster, etc... I can't be managing snapshots all over the forums.
Yeah, I know, it's exiting to have root. Let's not complicate it unnecessarily.

Thanks RikRong for saying that. Noone has mentioned that so far cause everyones excited about root. Root aint much if you still have to use SafeStrap. I runnign what my M originally came with and im hoping the Kit Kat update doesnt re-lock it.

k1mu has created a USABLE root tool for the RAZR M, originally intended on the Samsung S4.
Low and behold it works on our latest firmware 98.30.1, 9.8.1Q-94-1.
There are many others that have confirmed that this works as well as me.
Credits go to k1mu.
Make sure the device is connected via USB to a computer and make sure USB debugging is enabled.
Simply unzip, and run the .bat file and follow the instructions.
Good luck!

Because the droid maxx/ultra/mini got kit kat in mid December. If you go to their site and go to the update page we are next to get it considering all other high end or 'newer' phones have got it

I figured people would probably still ask about the BL. However, you can still do a lot of tweaking on the stock ROM if you are rooted.
Thank you mod for the edit! I haven't been on here since. I was in no way taking any credit for this.

Untill we have a .kdz file in our hands we can't say anything for sure. Most probably (and I hope) the firmware shown in the video is only a beta because too many features are missed :crying: we saw how LG is used to manage the updates with the G2, so first of all rolled out a "beta" version in some asian countries, without some features (ART for example)..Then, some weeks later rolled out the final version of the firmware. Anyway we are very close :fingers-crossed:

V29 is beta version, and has ART.
V28 has Knock On, But has been removed, because some reason conflict hardware/
Sorry for my bad english.
I cannot share this firmware. For tester only.
I hope V30b is still in beta.

Thank's very much for the useful details don't worry if you can't share the rom, personally I am not obsessed with having always the latest beta..I suppose that when it's done, LG will start the roll out, and then, here on xda, works will start Only if it's not a problem and if it's possible for you, would be appreciated if you can keep the community informed on what it's added and what it's removed between the various betas, so we can passionately follow LG's progress..if you want to create a discussion, for example, the community would be happy.
Anyway..I think that ART is foundamental for the future, so it's a great news that it's here! :victory:
knock on is a pity, so even knock code would not be there..but it's not as "foundamental" as ART for example, because I think that some talented developer would integrate at least knock on in the kernel (@ak for example, I was thinking to you LOL). The "major" problem would be the knock off, because I suppose that, if the phone doesn't have the knock on, the launcher wouldn't support the gesture to double tap to sleep.
Now it remains to see the other features that LG usually bakes in the roms, as slide aside, Guest mode (it would be REALLY REALLY REALLY useful, at least for me)..hope in good things to come :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Slide aside, guest mode, plug and pop,... Very easy to mod (or port).
I have a problem, can not use open bootloader (nexus bootloader) to load kitkat kernel.

Then in next version we'll have less features lol
You look too responsible about the ROM. We should wait for a more generous tester to see a leak at last.
Can you help me. How to load kitkat kernel from open bootloader ? Or help me patch with loki, i need recovery for kitkat rom
Anyone ?
Thanks

Could you be more specific? Because I can't fully understand the problem I mean.. (correct me if I am wrong):
-We start from an optimus g, with lg bootloader (for the noobs that read, it can be unlocked with freegee)
-if you put the nexus 4 bootloader ( I suppose following something similar to this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099784 changing the bootloader partition) I think that the phone will load properly only kernels meant for the nexus 4 (and not even all the kernels for nexus 4, according to the OP of the guide), but I'm not sure because I've never changed the bootloader..Supposing that correctly manages even the optimus g kernels (and it's possible), I suppose that the problem now is the recovery, because nobody created a recovery working with kitkat roms from optimus G. For anybody, that doesn't have almost anything for now to work on..it's almost impossible to create it, IMHO..I think we have only to wait for LG's relases, sorry

Well maybe he could use the classic method for unlocking the bootloader instead of mako?

Is that necessary? Because I don't think anyone will be able to help you in this case. But maybe you could try classic method and see If it works. It might since in classic method it is still Optimus G bootloader.

I think it's necessary because with a new .kdz rom and new android version, usually even the bootloader is replaced by LG with a new version..so the old method at 99% won't work. Of course is worth a try..but I think that loading trough nexus 4 bootloader is the only option to try..even because probably the jelly bean bootloader wouldn't be compatible with kitkat roms..
We only have to wait for a kdz, nothing else..only few weeks and here we go, hoping that someone would be able to unlock (as fast as possible) the kitkat bootloader..
