[SomethingWeird]

Will this work on d160 (the single sim version).

Can work, need some changes:
1. delete persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds from build.prop
2. replace /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl from d160

 

[SomethingWeird]

Thanks a lot.Just finished flashing cm11 without a problem.There are issues with the wifi,but its too late for me to look into that.Calling and such basic stuff work.You have no idea how much i missed cyanigen mod.You have no idea how grateful i am.

 

[SomethingWeird]

Here is the logcat for the wifi from boot.Im new to this so im not sure what im looking at but this lone keeps repeating
E/WifiHW ( 690): Supplicant not running, cannot connect

 

[SomethingWeird]

Also the camera is broken too and in cwm i cant mount as usb drive.
Sry if im being annoying.

Sorry, as i see d160 more different. Very hard do something without device...

 

[SomethingWeird]

After a full day of testing its really stable and beside those 2 everything else works(3g works so im not left without net).

Anyway i think im going to stay on the stock rom unless there is nothing i could do to help you with this.Id try to make a rom on my own but with the crappy pc,slow net(literary took me 50 min to download just the rom) and no experience i dont think i have the nerves.

Will this work on D165AR (the single sim version).

Adorei a iniciativa parabéns !!! Adoraria testar mais eu tenho o l40 D175 , você tem planos para o D175 ?? Vlww

Is there any way to get the LG L40 into recovery mode without adb/root from a working system? I tried all combinations of VolUp, VolDown, Home, and Power, but all of them boot the device normally.

I'm hesistant to experiment with a custom ROM if I don't have a means to recover from a bootloop or otherwise failed ROM update. Surely vm03 must have had a few boot problems to resolve while porting CM11?

 

[hankwang]

...power off you phone-take out the battery-put it again-hold volume down with power till you see the lg logo leave the keys and hold the power key again

Thanks for the response. It seems that the timing is quite critical (release VolDown+Power, immediately press Power again).

However, I am then greeted with a screen "Perform factory reset? Yes/No". No recovery boot loader. A factory reset will not help me to unbrick a device if something went wrong with the ROM upgrade.

Note: I have an encrypted /data partition and this is a D160 L40 (the single-SIM version). Maybe that makes a difference?

 

[SomethingWeird]

Just go yes,it wont do a factory reset,but get you in cwm instead(that is if you have flashed cwm before).

Uhm, no CWM yet, since I won't flash anything before I'm sure that I can recover the original bootloader (with fastboot) and OS image.

 

[ddv1976]

how I unlock the bootloader???

Read first post!!!

P.S. I didn't try it myself, but a Youtube clip confirms that pressing YES on the "Factory reset?" prompt wil indeed do a factory reset (after one more confirmation) of the L40-D175 (dual SIM). It seems to work without battery removal. I found the manual for the L40-D160, which doesn't mention the battery either. (Nor does it mention a way to enter recovery mode). Oh well. I'm not going to risk hard-bricking this phone.

1. You run adb reboot recovery comand from phone, not from PC. On phone just run reboot recovey from terminal under root.
2. If you use CWM from first post, it CAN'T DO wipe after you pres Yes for Factory reset.
