Unfortunately not. I was helped by the devs on IRC on how to root. But I reverted back because network would not work on my E971.

Why bother disabling it? It's not like it will download and flash an OTA on you without your permission.

Rogers Optimus G

Hey, I am currently using the Rogers Optimus G running 4.0.4 with the OTA installed, Software version E97110e. I was able to root/unlockboot so I can flash roms onto my device. I currently can run the 4.1.2 jellybean stock. But the issue I am having is that I cannot flash the CM10.1 it will always give me the "Black Screen of Death". I tried using CWM all the versions as well as using TWRP with no luck, I am hoping there is away to flash this ROM successfully seeing that your tag says you are running a Rogers e971 with the Rom working. any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

That's cause the E update changed a couple of partitions which in turn messed up mako boot. So you have to downgrade to D and flash from there.

Is there a simple way to flash my firmware to the D version? I downloaded this "Stock" rom from another thread but Rom I downloaded is a .TOT file? I am not sure how to extract what I need from it.

Thank you again

Go on the IRC channel and ask for lgnpst. The instructions for it will be there as well.

Just add google search as one of the lock screen shortcuts. Not the same way as aosp but it works fine.

Download mode problem

In the last few days, when I plug in my phone to charge it goes into Download Mode and will not charge. I have to unplug the usb cable and hold the Power Button for 7 seconds to get it to reboot. It goes into download mode when I plug it into a PC or into just the wall charger.

This doesnt happen ALL off the time, just most of the time when I connect the USB cable.

I had stock ICS from houston, and now I have the Xperia JB rom that is based on a stock rom. The Download Mode problem didnt get resolved with the upgrade.
Anyone else had this happen?

Hi

I have the Rogers E971 running Android version 4.1.2 with the software version E97120c. I was wondering how i would go about rooting my phone. My phone has terrible battery life and i wanted to try and recalibrate it to see if that would help with extending battery life at all, but it requires root =/. Any help would be truly appreciated.

Cheers

You don't need to root so much as installing the Qualcomm battery guru beta app. This has been a real lifesaver for me. I have gained so many extra hours of battery life, it is unreal. It takes about 4 days to set up/learn your usage habits, but it is worth it. Give it a shot, I am sure you will not regret it. You can find it in the playstore.

With all due respect, unless you plan on changing carriers, then the E971 does in fact have the fastest up/down speeds. 2600 is basically empty right now, like driving a Ferrari down an empty highway. Not many people buy a phone knowing they'll be switching carriers - I certainly don't.

On a separate note, anyone else get a little happy tingle inside everytime the LTE icon comes on?

I am north of Montreal area and my LTE icon is on 90 percnt of the time here an my speeds vary from 25000 to 45000 down and 7000 to 15000 up. I get the same feeling though.
