How much does it cost? Im not ready to root, let alone needing to flash back to stock. Figured i would just book mark it, and come back to it later.

Quick question..... is a PC neccassary for SuperSu (or do we use superuser?), root explorer, and links2sd, one of which, I know is neccassary for TitaniumB/U? If i cant get titanium B/U, i might as well wait.

Also, my current SD card is only 2GB's...
 
im not sure what im doing wrong. i downloaded the tot file and placed it in the s/w file it accepted it but when i try to initiate the download it says the bin doesn't match

You ask how much mega cost its free

No the PC isn't neccassary for the supersu I would use supersu its have had no problems with me. Simple and easy to use . with a flash of a zip you can change to superSu from any recovery such as twrp or clockwork.

I think you did something wrong you might need to reread your source of information.
 
im trying to flash it over with the lg flash tool. i think its because its not metro pcs so its not matching my cricket version of the phone

It was stated that the ones i sent were for cricket.

Wait I am confused your flashing a cricket tot to a metro PCs device . can't be done ..cricket is for cricket metro PCs is for metro PCs . if mixed and match was to flash the device would be truly BRICKED .

Do I need a PC for Titanium?

And I dunno how many times I said D321. Thats why I havn't touched my phone yet. Not even rooted. Ima be good enough to give advice before I go and mess mines up.
 
Hmmmm, maybe Im asking the wrong way.... i dont know too much lingo.

Can I just use my 2G SD card as is for back ups, or does it have to be partitioned?

I just found out a bit ago that the D321 bootloader is infact unlocked for my phone, but, unless there is a diff way for me to unlock it, this, I know I wont be able to do for now. And I need the bootloader unlocked to do flash ,yes?

For TB, you would need the computer to partition the SD card, to write certain apps on the external SD vs the internal SD, as well, or no? I know I can make a back up, but at the end of the day, if I get a boot loop, Ima need a PC at that point regardless.

Just tryna figure out everything before I do this.

That may or may not work you need to say that you need a MEGA STORAGE account to get this . these URL just send you to mega app

On android, the links for d321 tot and dll files send you to download mega app. However, if you install the app OR if you click the links on a pc (even with no mega account), it will begin to download
