Download the official drivers from the LG website and it should work, also try different USB ports on your pc. I think installing the drivers fixed my issue.

when I do this then my phone just boots as normal into CM10... any ideas? EDIT: I just wasn't fast enough, it seems. My restore still isn't working though, with the KDZ updater still not finding the phone...

Don't forget the LG Optimus L5! It's ARMv7.

anyone know what the changelog is for the newest CM10 nightly? the filesize has changed so something must have been added!

Here is the 1GHz kernel from 4pda. I don't know if this kernel works only on the E612 or the E610 as well, but it's 00:40 and I'm tired so i won't be testing on my E610 right this second. Can others test please?

Has anyone tested this?

how do i use this?

tried it from the recovery in the first post, it failed.

Can someone reupload the files from 4pda on here? So that everything is in one place for the sake of convenience. Thanks!

Excellent work! Is there any chance that this exploit (or a similar one) would be able to unlock the bootloader of the LG Optimus L5? Thanks!

Can anybody with an app like root explorer get me their settings.db from /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db ? I would like a completely untouched copy of the file, straight from your phone, so I can push it to my phone via adb and see if I can get my phone to boot...

After seeing the logcat for my phone booting, I can be sure that settings.db is messed up. As a result, I think I must wipe the /data partition (factory reset) which I can do with adb. However I need to be able to run adb shell in root, and because I've flashed the phone using KDZ then it isn't...

I've tried this, Im just going to take the phone to the shop.

I've tried restoring using KDZ many many times, and an adb logcat shows that there is something wrong with the settings.db at /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db This is causing a huge number of boot errors So now what?

Can you give me a step by step how to do this? My phone is stuck on the second part of the bootlogo and even using the hard reset key combination doesn't work...

How?

i dont think that will help, i need a way to completely wipe the phone like a factory reset, without actually using the factory reset option.

Can't Reset I was forced to reset my LG E610 using the KDZ tool, because i messed up some system apps that i shouldnt have. Now, the home button is only partly functional. THIS IS NOT A HARDWARE ISSUE. i can wake the phone from sleep using the home button, and thats it. It doesnt actually...

I followed these instructions to the letter, and i actually rebooted and i did all the google now set up screen (yay :D ) but then it showed a white screen and "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped." (Oh :( ) any ideas? i cant get it to work by long pressing menu, or using the quick search...

We now NEED a custom recovery for this device. I'll see if i can compile one, but dont cross your fingers. I am an amateur xP so, list of things to do: 1. CWM Recovery 2. Custom Kernel 3. Custom Rom the only thing that could possibly have more priority than #1 is getting a forum for this...

+1 LG Optimus L5 E610

Ok so i got root using the russian method on an LG L5 with the following hardware/kernel/software LG E610 3.0.8-perf+ LG-E610-V10d-JUN-17-2012 Hope this helps! And does anyone know if there is a custom recovery yet?

Maybe some sort of device/software difference? I have the E610 running v10d and the 3.0.8 kernel.

It has got root permissions, and I batch defrosted every app on the phone to make sure that it was defrosted, to no avail. The app still doesn't show up :/ Are there any other methods I can try?

Not sure if it's just me, but this root method seems to completely bork bluetooth. I can't turn it on, using settings then settings force closes, and trying to turn it on using the status bar toggles force closes SystemUI... hmm

I have an LG L5 running ICS 4.0.3, I pushed the apks to /system/app and /data/app, set the permissions and rebooted, and the icon didn't show in the drawer :( then, i read this thread and installed titanium backup in an attempt to defrost it, and discovered that the app doesn't show up in...

Alright I'm back at my PC so now imma try this out. Fingers crossed!

The .bat file opened in command prompt, and gave me a load of "permission denied" errors... anyone else had any luck? it didn't even install superuser.

I hope a root method for this device comes soon.... as well as an official device page :D

Because of the way that Jelly Bean uses to be faster than Ice Cream Sandwich, it requires a pretty beefy CPU, which the wildfire doesn't have. It would be nice to see CM10 or even any kind of Jelly Bean port on the Wildfire but I doubt it will happen, and even if it does I don't think it'll be...

As amazing as the developer support for the Wildfire is, i would recommend the wildfire S. If possible, get something even better, like the desire or the desire s. The original wildfire is 3 years old around now, and thats definitely too old for it to be considered a good purchase. What matters...

can i just say, custom roms account for some of that 64%, and i know for certain that there are phones out there which perform so well on 2.3.x and so badly on 4.0.x that there would be no point in updating them, as it would be unusable anyways. And also, a large cause of upgrade issues...

There will always be a new version of android for Wildfire, because the devs will keep working at it until the hardware gives out :P And when it does, they'll switch their focus to working on improving the version of android the Wildfire tops out at, so we'll eventually end up with a rom thats...

I... Just... AAAAARGH :mad: but well played.

im having MAJOR problems with overclock. Using both setCPU and the built in cyanogenmod, it starts randomly rebooting. It also reboots after changing either the minimum frequency or the maximum. You cant do both, without it rebooting. Its a real pain in the ass.

Im gonna keep watching this... :)
