Root [ALPHA][TESTING ONLY][CLOCKWORKMOD Touch 6]

[903Tex]

well im sure when someone (with the know how) gets time they can build cm for you guys. ppl just get busy, you know?
keep hope alive!

I hope one day your right. Actually im lovin the phone. Would be nice with a nice custom oc kernel and roms. But i think people are skipping this mostly due to the locked bootloader which i dont know why lg started doing this!!! But maybe the guys who unlocked it on lg optimus g will take a stab at f7

 

[rbheromax]

is there any way to return to stock after messing something up? since its locked bl

Theres a unbrick thread so yes

well i setup a repo @ https://github.com/rbheromax/f7-kernel
i forked GT's kernel source and added somethings (cpu govs, block sched, OC)
idk if it works because i dont own an f7, but from experience with the krait platform, im sure its right-ish. hehe (it'll OC but kill the shiz outta ur battery life)
some dev like GT will actually have to spend hours trying to find the lowest voltages one day just to save on battery as I dont own the phone and cant test over and over all day.

[rbheromax]

if he's up for it. He is better at this game than me. If i had time to maintain all the devices i help out on, i would be glad to pick this phone up, but thats not the case....

[rbheromax]

thats aboot, can i get boot too?
"dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot/ of=/sdcard/boot.img"
can be ran in terminal emulator or over adb

 

[sortoh85]

On both it tells me its not a directory

 

[rbheromax]

"dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img"
the slash may have killed the command
but this should dump it
its one command and u must be su (#) first

[rbheromax]

okay, got it
built boot.img and loki'd it with whatever aboot sammyz had in that zip

[+] Detected target Boost Mobile LG Optimus F7 build LG870ZV4_06

flash in recovery^^
you may need to be on a full stock rom since i never edited ramdisk to do whatever GT did to allow removal of apps (if anything was done at all )
