Optimus Logic?

Im posting this in here because I cant find a forum for the specific device. And I feel this is where its most likely to be seen.

Im thinking about picking up the LG Optimus Logic. Its like 80 bucks and runs off AT&T towers. I have a prepaid Optimus Net wich I like a lot but Sprint coverage isnt as good as I would like. My questions are does anyone have this phone? If so has anyone rooted it yet? Also how is the display? Thank you in advance guys.
 
hello mynamestiki1 i relocated your thread to "other androids"
you will find better responses in here and your questions will be answered quicker.

=]
 
Check it out guys. I'm gonna buy one from walmart and try to root it. Ill try all the oneclick methpds and ill post the results as well as a review of the phone. Mmmmmkayy?
 
Phone is a complete and total disaster. Walmart is getting it back.
First of all the battery cover is too small for the phone. It cant be properly attached . The logic ran great for a few hours. Very fast and smooth. I hooked the phone up to wifi and downloaded a few apps, and the phone prompted me to update the software. So I did. Now the phone slows down gradually to just short of frozen in about thirty minutes of up time. It seems as if the processor is underclocking itself slowly to about 196mhz and just getting stuck there. Phone is so slow i cant use it. Its bizzare. Ill be really surprised if there isn't a recall on it. Steer clear of the logic guys.
 
This seems like a nice phone. Wish I could get adb sdk to find it. Maybe someone will come along with advice.
 
It is a LGL35G. It is running Android) 2.3.6, Kernel) 2.6.38-perf+, Build Number) GRK39F, Software Ver) V10f-JUL-20-2012.

Do you mean, when you type "adb devices", nothing comes up?

That is correct.

I tried One Click also which can read the model & gets to pushing su file but says "failed to get root shell". (Wording isn't exact)
 
Hi guys, this my first android phone since my G1. Before I just had a crappy flip phone.

I think the reviewer above got a bad phone, I've had mine for about a week, now. No slow down, but is probably slow compared to a Galaxy. One thing I noticed and maybe all smart phones are like this. It only has 118mb to install apps on. I thought that was rather limited.

I have not tried to root it yet, as I am a newb. But if somebody figures it out I would like to know. I'm wondering if Jellybean's improvements would help it. And hey Jellybean!

Oh and this is my first post, so Hi!
 
Another thing. I have 2 music players on here. I don't need 2 but they are there and I can't get rid of either. And does anyone know if you can access books on you sd card with the Google Books app? I can't seem to. Using FBreader right now, and it's doing alright.
 
Your probably right about not needing 2 but if we do get root for this then make a backup before deleting because one of them probably isn't just a music player but controls something else.
 
Jcase said:
Silly permission bug again, but w/e. LG should know better, from what I am told this is a recently released device. This is a long standing known issue. Lg get your sh*t together.

Directions:
unzip su.zip into the current path (directory) you are in.

adb shell

(while in adb shell)
rm /data/local/tmp/profile_calib_m
ln -s /data/local.prop /data/local/tmp/profile_calib_m
exit


adb reboot
adb wait-for-device shell

(once in the adb shell again)

echo 'ro.kernel.qemu=1' > /data/local.prop
rm /data/local/tmp/profile_calib_m
exit


adb reboot
adb wait-for-device remount
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb shell chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell rm /data/local.prop
adb reboot

Once rebooted install superuser from the market:
There it is, just got my daughters rooted doing this, now to remove pre installed apps.
 
Ok I followed the directions. It rebooted a few times. Downloaded Superuser. How can I tell it's rooted now?
 
Download the drivers here. Choose the usb driver for Tracfone, Straight talk etc.

LG Phone Drivers - Official LG Phone Forum

Thanks but as you can see it is already rooted. As far is I know my wife's was the first one rooted. That is where Jcase got root. It was assume to watch him work.

When you open Superuser slide to the screen far left. Tap ota survival. Superuser will ask for permission. Allow Superuser & you are good to go.

If you seen the # during the process that is root so you should be good to go.
 
My "abd device" list wouldn't show my phone either, until I downloaded those drivers and it worked fine. That's why I was pointing him that way.

Got my rom and everything else backed up. Now I'm going to install the latest cynogenmod. So not Jelly bean but I'll take icecream sandwich.

No problem man. I used another phones drivers because I didn't find the one for this one.

Glad you posted it for the next person.
 
When you say backedup are you saying a nandroid or a TB? Are you sure about CM & ICS?

I used Rom Manager https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDMsImNvbS5rb3VzaGlrZHV0dGEucm9tbWFuYWdlciJd

and to do the back up and restore. Worked flawlessly with my contacts and everything. It makes an image of your system I believe.

As for CM I got the Mod here CyanogenMod Downloads

It is CM9 which is Ice Cream Sandwich. CM 10 is Jelly Bean but there isn't a rom for that yet.
 
Is this what you used?

This looks like experimenting & I hate to put something on the open forum that might brick someone's phone so can you gtalk me at kingmt01@gmail.com ? A PM would work also but I'd like to talk in real time.

Thanks.
 
Yes the L3/E400 seems to be the same phone. But with any rooting and changing of roms you may brick your phone. Try at your own risk. I bricked this one. Found the recovery boot is "volume down, home button, power button" Hold the first two down then push your power until the lg logo shows up and let go.
