Odin is for Samsung only. (Used to have Galaxy S2 E4GT before this phone)Odin is the program you use in windows for download mode, completely different from adb though. I'm talking a whole nother ballpark. Same game but completely different field.

Here's the hardware IDs I get in download modeI'm saying it's a similar program to odin but I don't think you can issue adb commands in download mode. When I get home though I'm going to try adding a whole list of vendor ids.
Safe mode is just like safe mode in Windows. Only stock system software is loaded and allowed to run. It has nothing to do with Developers Options. Should go away if you just reboot. You can access safe mode by holding the power off menu option, and it will ask if you want to boot in safe mode. Also, if you turn on your phone then start holding Vol- when the logo appears until it boots all the way it will boot into safe mode. Did you do either of these things, perhaps accidentally?what is this "safe mode" thats on my screen after turning the developer options on?
Good luck. I just spent an hour with lg hearing how they can't legally unlock the bootloader no matter which carrier.

I thought a requirement for using Linux based systems is to provide the source code. Wouldn't the boot loader count as that?
I would think that since Android is Linux based there should be no restrictions...almost sounds like a legal fight coming.
I'm having no joy with this phone so far...I love it as far as functionality goes but not being able to root, I'm frustrated that I cannot get rid of ads and also realized that I cannot set up my wifi hotspot anymore.![]()
not to sound dumb, but, doesnt the optimus f3 have a locked bootloader, and they rooted it, right?
yes originally they had used motochopper then virgin mobile did a software update and then saferoot is what was used, bootloader was never able to be unlocked.
so no roms just had download mode and the lg support tool to flash back to stock which looks like what this phone is doing
im not really interested in roms at the moment, just get rid of some of the bloat. this is a great phone....i came from the optimus elite.
llLoki has been patched already. The exploit is no longer viable. But bliss had other advice
