Root and Recovery LG LU6200 ICS [Confirmed]

I have had a few queries regarding Rooting and installing Recovery on LU6200 running Stock ICS.

So here is how you can root your LU6200 and install CWM touch in less than 10 minutes.

Disclaimer: I did not write the scripts nor recovery, I found these methods on internet in other languages and I have put them here for easy access for others.

Files you need.
Root_en.zip for rooting
Flash recovery6.0.1.2.rar for ClockworkMod Recovery installation

Procedure.


Rooting


  1. Download the above files and save them to a folder e-g "c:\Lu6200_root"
  2. Unzip Root_en.zip
  3. In the unzipped folder run "LG-Optimus_LTE_rooting_ICS-JB.bat" file and follow instructions


If you follow the instructions exactly as it says to follow, you will have your LU6200 Rooted when you reboot.

Installing ClockworkMod recovery



  1. Unrar Flash recovery6.0.1.2.rar 
  2. In the extracted folder, execute "Recovery.bat" 
  3. Follow instructions ...

and voila!! you have recovery.


That is all.

LG SU640 (Optimus LTE) Modified Stock ROM V30D - Stable

I have been experimenting with different Roms for my LG SU640. I've been to CM9 , 10, 10.1 . Tried PAC Rom , paranoid ... you name it, I have tried it. But every Rom that I have tested lacks few things in particular.

Stability 
(Ability to pass a day without FC , without Reboot without hiccups)

Battery Life 
( If it passes 1.5 days with my usage*, I am more than happy)

Peace of mind 
(Not worrying about missing a call because the cell froze when it received the notification)

While other Roms are not at all useless... I particularly love ParanoidAndroid, PAC Rom is an excellent mixture of AOKP,CM and Paranoid but with all custom Roms I have had instances where I had to suffer due to either FC or a random reboot.

So, I figured maybe I should give Stocks a try, Stock official release is always slow and mostly bloated till the throat but MOST stable. And then there are Modified Stocks (technically not stock anymore :P) with stability of Stocks and optimized for performance . They contain all the useful stock apps and none of the useless bloat. The best one I've found is ...wait for it...

Sphinx v3 Supercharge 

It has

  • English language
  • Cool homescreen / icon themes , 
  • An excellent lockscreen with multiple themes same as found on LG Optimus G with awesome Drop effect (something to drool upon) 
  • Pretty neat weather app
  • One handed operation capable keyboard (you will love this feature)
  • Excellent stock dialer and contacts app.
  • Very capable Messaging app (SMS length not limited to 120 characters)
  • Notes with widgets
  • LG Q-Slide feature apps (Calendar , Calculator , Note , Browser, Video player) (True multi-tasking)
  • and much much more...


In short, I did not have to go through the hassle of installing basic software because the stock stuff is so awesomely usable.

You can get this amazing modified stock ROM sphinx v3 supercharge v6 on the links below

Flashing Procedure :

Strictly follow the given procedure for best results.
  • 4 wipes (Factory defaults , Wipe cache, Wipe dalvic cache , format system)
  • Install from Zip (may take longer than other Roms)
  • Once flashed, reboot and wait ...
  • wait... wait...
  • Once you are booted into the Rom, Choose language , DO NOT sign in with Google account just yet. Skip the Google account login and let it reach the homescreen.
  • Go to applications and start Super SU, it will ask you to update SU binary, select yes and select the procedure other than through Recovery. Reboot when done.
  • After reboot, enjoy your Rom.
  • Let the system settle for about 24 hours before you give your verdict on its performance
**IMPORTANT**
Your Rom flash should take around 5 minutes. And it should take the longest on "Copying system files" message. If your flash time is less than 5 minutes, you'll most likely end up in a bootloop.

If you had 5 minutes flash and still experience bootloop then the possibility is that you ubricked using gingerbread v10i KDZ. To fix that follow the below procedure contributed by one of our users.

1. Flash v30C_00.kdz2. Root & install CWM3. Boot into recovery and do 4 wipes4. Flash this or other rom of your choice and enjoy your phone
