Hi, i´ve LG-E975 version E97510d, european. I want to flash CWM in it. I bricked the phone once while i was trying to do it. Can i flash it safely via Freegee ?
I bricked it also with freegee....
i unlocked my F180K using freegee with no problems at all.
then I converted my F180K to E975, successfully unlocked bootloader again with freegee.

can you elaborate more on that? I've have used an older version of freegee for unlocking (no google img on boot). should I root again? btw, the root process was ok. just asking because I'm thinking about flashing a new rom

Mako bootloader is simply said safer. You have more recovery ways if something goes wrong, so yes I suggest you to install freegee and flash mako bootloader (not sure but I think you can flash over your unlocked bootloader)

i tried rooting the new firmware and it was a success, i now have root and dual recovery installed on stock 4.3
here's the other link i posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48805157#post48805157
here's how. (my device is locked BL)
LINKS UPDATED!! (recovery)
1.Backed up my TA Partition
2.Flashed the official .569 ftf using flashtool
3.Unlocked my ZL's bootloader
4.Flash this kernel to get recovery (thanks Minthun46) http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=700#downloads extract the boot.img and flash it using fastboot or flashtool (fastboot mode)
5.Flash Supersu fix zip and dual recovery (thanks NUT) SUPERSU fix.zip http://nut.xperia-files.com/download.php?dlid=U3VwZXJTVV9maXg=
recovery that i used http://nut.xperia-files.com (download the latest flashable zip for ZL)
6.Re flash .569 ftf exclude everything except kernel and fotakernel.
7.Restore TA Backup.
FOR UNLOCKED BL
just follow step 2, 4, 5, and 6
VOILA!!! device is now rooted and has working recovery
PS
Will only work for ZL that can be bootloader unlock.
Hit thanks if it helps you.
Don't put Locked BL in the title, you only managed to root because your phone was unlockable. Putting Locked BL in the title states that your bootloader can also be locked for this method to work, and but unless your ZL can be bootloader unlocked, this method cannot be used for locked BL

this is the recovery i used http://nut.xperia-files.com/download.php?dlid=WkwtbG9ja2VkZHVhbHJlY292ZXJ5Mi43LjQzLUJFVEE=
if you still get bootloop just root it and install recovery using your pc. use nut's dual recovery for lockedbootloader for windows.

will these step factory reset the device or will it keep all my apps/settings?
Is the purpose of relocking the device is to keep bravia engine?

It will reset your device if u put a check on wipe apps log on flashtool. I recommend a clean install to avoid problems.
Yes i relocked it to regain BE2 for photos

Is there a way to unlock the bootloader on a v500? i only found a tool called loki but that just bypasses the bootloader.

the bootloader isn't unlocked(ever) we just use a workaround , you need to revert to kitkat first for this to work and you can install twrp by following the instructions HERE

this method requires you to downgrade(only bootloader) and is more dangerous then the regular downgrading approach. just downgrade you could enjoy have enjoyed a rom by now(while you were searching for the correct images

None of the G4s except the 815EU and H811 (TMo) variant have an unlocked bootloader available. The H815 you have to get unlocked via the LG support site and the H811 is unlocked by default from TMobile.

How did you unlock, officially or unofficially?
If unofficially, did u get the white ASUS: IN SEARCH OF INCREDIBLE Splashscreen? That indicates if your bootloader is unlocked or not.
White=Unlocked
Black=Locked
