upgrading

so here's the thing. i am plannig to upgrade to official 2.3. i was simply too afraid to do it for now so i would like to ask you guys what do i have to do BEFORE upgrading. first thing i should do is to backup IMEI, right? and how do i do that? anything else?
i know how to upgrade (dload...etc), i just want to do all (safety) preparations

Simply go ahead

hehe my biggest fear is imei. how can i backup it? will it be enough to just make backup of folder efs?

copy all folder in pink screen mode after that just update...(dload) and enjoy 2.3.5
after that u also able to flash ics 4.0
best of luck

Install 5Iromtoolbox and backup you imei, then install the rom

Don't install the latest release if you want to root your phone later and install a custom rom (is easier with 522 version).

Also remember to revert to the original partition layout, if you changed it using Geno's script. you can revert back later.
bootloader becomes inaccessible after 518 version. read the guide on getting the pink screen after you upgrade.

First root ur phone by downloading z4root file available in first page of this thread then download ROM manager and select first option..flash clock word mod. Then download ROM and gapps whichever u want to install. Then reboot into recovery by pressing vol- and power key. Then wipe data..wipe cache...wipe dalvic cache in advance. Then install ROM from SD card and then install gapps. That's it

Help: Rooting LG Optimus L5 II E450

anyone can help me how to root LG Optimus L5 II E450????

Try this apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276
Or Via TWRP

If I helped then press thanks

Framaroot is not working to my device but TWRP is very difficult to understand,

do you have the flashtool?
use the twrp porting tool created by yuweng on windows then select manual port, place recovery in the mentioned folder and continue
then flash it via flashtool via putting your device in preloader mode
if you don't know how to put it in preloader mod or anything else then feel free to ask
If I helped then press thanks

u could go to play store n search goomanager
then don't install it but just watch the video there
If I helped then press thanks

your stock rom-http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?mod=Lg+Optimus+L5+II&paese=Tutti&id_mod=23
If I helped then press thanks

i examined it and found its your rom(e450)
interestingly your rom had a quite of similarities with mine
only you have some more additional build settings
you can try to root via my mobile's method

I rooted mine fine with VROOT, a chinese app. It works for most phones I tried with a single click.

root lg e450 / e450f
i rooted my e450f with asian software called shuame. its been 100% successful with 3 of my devices so far.. a little awkward with the program being in chinese but there the option to root the phone still has the word root next to the characters

twrp tutorial Blu vivo air

jjvalor59 said:
TUTORIAL PLEASE
You don't have to do any thing special on the vivo air to install twrp. Just download twrp manager from the play store. Then select install recovery. Been using for months since root and no problems. Made backups, restored, all working... Well that's all , ma'am XDA is strict on posting stuff ,apparently that was too short lol
