[q] lg l7 rooted or not? - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone! I have a question about LG P705 4.1.2 V20B. I tried to root my phone following this guide. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486512) First tried this one using framaroot but it didn't worked (App keeps crashing,or gives me error#7) then I tried this one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448085) .After this process is done I installed SuperSu app from Play Store and I can use the apps that require root. But when I run a test using Root checker it says that my phone doesn't have a proper root access. So I wonder that if I wanna flash custom ROMS etc. Will I be able to do it ? Thanks!

And I am new to this kinda stuff so I dont know if I even need a root access for installing CWM and flashing ROMS. Can I install CWM and flash a custom ROM without having a root access? Thanks!

You must to know to use it
Disable location
Disable gmail synching
Disable broadcast
You dont need overclock work pretty well wita 122-1008 smarassH3 sio..
Enable purging of asserts and 16bit transparency
If you have google search application disable it if you dont need it
Download wakelock app from playstore to see which app wake your device
If you have skype, froze this app when you dont need it because process always work.
When you use data connection you use 3G after every "sesion" I dont know how to call that xd switch to 2G. No 2G/3G, only 2G. Signal is much better, and use lesser battery. After all of this ypu will have good battery life.
I have battery about 9-10h with wifi use and screen abput 4-5 h.. I use it very much battery is good.
Only need to know to use it

What is filter installer?

From what I understand it is the process that filters apps that don't work for your phone. However, I've ran carat and it says I need to restart or kill it to obtain 5 hours of battery life. Can I disable it or what can I do? I am running stock rom, not rooted, completely stock. Thanks so much!

Don't know if you're still having this issue a month later.
Based on what you read, you can just disable it. You don't need a filter installer or a method of filter apps for your device. When you attempt to install apps for your device, the play store will let you know before installing that the app is compatible with your device.

Hi guys, are you sure that is the case? That the market app will check? I know it scans for malicious apps now in 2017/18, but what if you install an app on beta from dev's web site?? Durant the Filter Installer then kick in???

Super SU has a option to unroot right in the app

yes it does but in pac a different superuser app is installed to the settings and there is no way to get that one out :/

Why not just use a file explorer with root rights to uninstall system apps by going to
/system/app and deleting it?
Odds are you'll have a file explorer already.. don't see the point in an entire separate app just for that purpose.
You can't do that when it is preinstalled into the framework of the settings of a rom

From Greenify's thread
Q: It seems that automatic hibernation is not working.
A: That is most probably caused by your root management tool. Because some root management tool require re-authorization after app update, you may have missed the confirmation dialog, since Greenify requests root privilige when screen is off.
If you are using SuperUser and confirm root privilege is granted to Greenify, there's a high chance SuperUser is not working correctly for background root privilege requests on your device. Most user with this issue got it solved by installing SuperSU (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu*) instead of SuperUser. You are suggested to have a try.

Solved [Q] AutoDroid Nexus 7 3G (Tilapia) Help

Hi everyone. Bare with me a little. I'm new at this and cannot post in ROM thread because I am a noob. I've done a lot of reading and learned how to pretty much break everything but I did manage to get it working again in stock form. I am trying to set everything up for AutoDroid and a car installation and cannot seem to get it working.
First things first, I successfully rooted the Nexus 7, installed custom recovery (TWRP), Installed SuperSU, installed the Kangaroo Kernel, and flashed the AutoDroid ROM. That's where I am at this point. The problem comes now where I don't have volume buttons on the nav bar and see no settings menu to change any options. I manually installed Power Event Manager and gave it access via SuperSU. The tablet doesn't go to deep sleep when removing power.
Current Settings:
*see attachment*
Does the tab need to be in host mode w/ OTG for PEM to work?
Where are the settings for the ROM?
If I don't have volume etc on nav bar does that mean it wasn't flashed properly?
What did I do wrong?
Sorry for all the beginner questions but I've gone thru hell with this. Have learned a ton tho. I managed to remove the OS and all recoveries so I had to reimage the tab w/ stock OS.
TL;DR: I suck at computers. I need help.

The problem is the ROM is supposed to add volume buttons to the nav bar but I am not seeing them. I cannot see any ROM setting app or button to alter its settings so I am not sure if I did something incorrectly.

I was reflashing and factory wiping but it wasn't working. I went to Advance wipe in TWRP and wiped Dalvik, cache, system, and data and boom Worked! Guess Dalvik and factory wasn't enough. Pretty much followed install directions for Slimkat. Can't believe it took all this.

Great job
Hey -- Great job. I had absolutely no issues loading the ROM with CWM and then doing the initial startup configuration (including voicemail). After that, all my apps installed like a breeze (even the Z Launcher TouchWiz replacement). Now, the WiFi tether works like a dream and it's actually faster to use than the stock rom.
My only wish is that I could make Mercury the default browser because even Chrome is a little touchy on sites like XDA and Reddit. Anyway -- great job on this port and on how solid it is.

Did you have the same issue on CM11? I did. The only fix I found was to flash a Touchwiz rom and connect the GPS once booted up. Then, leaving the GPS on, flash back to CM. So far the fix has stuck through many reboots.

GPS Working
Hey thannks very much for the help. The method using sourceforge files worked perfectly.. Evrything is working on this rom until i bounce up on something else..
I don't know much about the process of a flashed phone as my Sprint S4 is flashed to Boost Mobile... I can't get this Ron to work properly although I haven't done an internal wipe... unless Phils Recovery factory wipe for a new Rom does that... but if not would an internal wipe affect the flash at all?

What's the path to delete and add the new apn file?? Everything works except data.
What version of TWRP are you using, if you are using and old one update it that maybe is the root cause of your problems.

So I have to re flash this rom so I can use the phone. So my question is how do I change the permision? Is this done at the pop up where depending what you check, under shows this numbers? 0644 or 7200
