Root [DISCONTINUED] SimplicityXL {Updated 5/17/14}

OK but do I need to connect it to the computer to install the ROM?


Thats a pretty broad Video to Post for this/any Phone lol.

First follow everything in this thread. you said you are already rooted so obviously skip the root part lol.

Then when you have PG CWM installed come back the This ROM's thread and follow the instructions in the second post on how to install. easy peasy?

Hey I have an Optimus f7 on us cellular. What do you mean by vz5? If it is the build number, mine is jzo54k after restore thanks for help!

VZ5 it's the most recent stock software update. Go to Settings/about phone/software information and verify you have the VZ5. If you have the VZ4 go update before you flash simplicity, otherwise it won't work properly and you'll have to go back to stock to update :mad: and that's not fun...

It worked! Thanks Chev! Everything seems to go gone well except for 2 things. Every time I restart the phone it says "secure booting error cause device unlock so boot success!" Is this normal? I'm a noob to flashing Roms so I just want to make sure. And also how come I don't have the "CRT effect" when I shut off the screen?
