How to root and install the recovery on LG L3 E-400

LG L3 E400

In the next tutorial I'm going to show them how root and install the modified recovery, ClockworkMod Recovery, in the LG L3 model E-400.

This is a terminal mid / low range, which has very good technical specifications, and for which they are beginning to appear, little by little that yes, new cooks interested in creating roms for this small terminal of LG.

The first thing we should do before starting this tutorial, will be install the drivers correct so that our Windows detect all the functions of our device, for this we will download and install the PC Suite, which is the default program to synchronize devices in the house LG.

If you already have installed the PC Suite, of course you can skip this step and go directly to the step of the terminal rooting.

Once the PC Suite, we will connect the LG L3 via usb and we will let Windows install the necessary drivers, once the driver installation is finished we can move on to the next step.

Rooting method of LG L3 model E-400

The first thing we will do is go to the menu of the LG L3 and in applications activate "Unknown sources", then in the same applications option, below we will enter development and we will activate the "USB debugging".

Now we will download the spectrum_root_windows, unzip it anywhere in our Windows, connect our LG L3 via USB and double click on run from the folder unzipped in the previous step.

spectrum_root_windows

spectrum_root_windows

Now we just have to press any key from the computer and do not touch anything or interrupt the process until everything is finished, keep in mind that during this process, your LG L3 se will reboot only several times, leave it connected until the program asks you press a key and the window of the spectrum_root_windows it closes.

To know if your phone is correct rooted, we must open the application drawer and look for a new application called Superuser.

Installing ClockworkMod Recovery on LG L3 E-400

To install the modified recovery in this terminal, it will be as easy as getting off from your own Play Store the Rom Manager application, install it, open it and select the first option of all called "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery".

Rom Manager "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"

The phone will begin the process of Recovery flashing, when finished, to check if the new recovery has been installed correctly, we must select the second option from the menu Rom Manager, the call "Reboot into Recovery", the terminal will restart and we will be in Recovery Mode, from which it is recommended to do a Android Backup or backup.

El Android Backup It is advisable 100 x 100Once done, we must save a copy on our PC or Pen Drive to put it in safekeeping, since this file can return the device to the state we have now after flashing a cooked rom or after a bad flashing.

El backup done you can find it on the route / sdcard / clockworkmod

  8.   Rigo Cedillo said

    I did not see the superuser application, it is only on my pc I can not pass it through usb to my cell phone

  9.   Eric Medina said

    It worked for me, I would like you to help me recover my phone, since once I got a software update on the phone, it restarted and I stayed on the main recovery screen (rom manager), after trying several times and after give up on the "reboot system now" option, I can't start again with my computer ... can someone help me solve this problem?

    1.    exavier10 said

      turn off your phone. press the volume minus button. the home button (the one below and in the middle) and press the power button all at the same time. time wait for it to turn on and vibrate. At the moment of vibrating, release the buttons, this is to do a hard reset and leave it as factory. You will have to configure your cell again .. greetings and I hope it serves you. If you do not search the internet for hard reset optimus l3 or the model of your cell ... 🙂

  10.   Eric Medina said

    ahmmmm another thing that I do not comment on, every time I restart it, it always remains at the initial recovery point (room manager)…. thank you for what you can do for me ... at the moment I have my cell phone dead.

  11.   colonel said

    Thank you, friend, it worked great for me, only you forgot to put some options that come out for you.

    but I was scared when it turned off and turned on and appeared smiley and was kedo like 1 minute but it's normal after 10 friend 1000 fingers up genius

  12.   Francisco said

    good friend I would appreciate if you would answer me well I tried as it appears but in the end when I press any key it tells me that it does not recognize it as an internal or external file I do not know if it is because I had already installed the pc suite or something not I know what the problem is
    Thank you

  13.   Carlos said

    Someone tell me if this works please 😀

    Hello, I root it with super user, but how can I release the bands, since it is in an operator, and it is from the country, and I need to buy a sim, thank you

  15.   raulmc said

    Hello, I have used everything to perfection but when I open the run.bat (program to root) and hit enter, after a few phases it says: "Error: Device not found" so several times and I never get rooted .

    Can anyone help me?

    1.    Francisco Ruiz said

      Do you have USB debugging enabled?

    Hello, the mobile restarts but it does not turn on completely and it has already taken 15 minutes, what can I do?

    1.    Roberto Verdi said

      If it does not pass the company logo (example TELCEL) and it restarts, that means that the system went out of your cell phone and needs a flash

      An easy way to do it is looking for the system updater of the brand of tucel, enter the official page of your cell and download it and install it and connect your cell to the pc in donwload mode to reload the system, I hope it has served you.

  17.   leo bravo creole said

    Hello, my mobile does not stop restarting and it takes almost 30 minutes or more! If someone can answer me, answer me now. I am very worried about my L3

    1.    laura said

      mine does not go beyond the lg logo, someone know what to do?

  18.   layaya said

    I have a question: I'm a novice and I don't understand a word about any of this, but can I root my LG E400 from my phone? I don't have a computer! I'm running out of space and memory! SOS! Muxas grcs.

  19.   mikey said

    Rootie my l3 and. When I want to turn it off, it restarts. Just how do I uninstall applications of this type?

  20.   mercedillas said

    To activate USB DEBUGGING: Settings, Applications, Development, Then check the usb debugging box.

  21.   mercedillas said

    Thank you very much Francisco, I have already achieved it. But a question does not exist any Rom for this terminal ?. And another one, so that it recognizes the external sd card ?. The external sd appears in storage, but then it does not allow downloaded apps to be transferred. Many thanks for everything.

  22.   Manuel said

    This I can apply if I update the software of my L3 to leave the factory update because it is the turnip that was installed

  23.   daniel said

    Hello, I have a problem after rooting it, it does not let me mark the option USB debugging, what can I do?

  24.   fpalace33 said

    That did not help me at all, since I have done it many times and I have not been able, and I have downloaded the famous Spectrum Root from several pages and none of them helps me to root my LG L3, neither has the famous SuperOneClick worked for me ... well, no I have been able to do nothing I do not know if it will be because of the Software version (V10c_00) or I do not know if in Claro they install something so that it does not allow easy rooting, but the fact is that I have not been able to do anything

    1.    Vanesa said

      The same thing happens to me… .. it must be Claro: S

      1.    matthew salcedo said

        And me uu

        1.    Victor said

          The same thing happens to me, it does not root, the superuser does not exit with any of the steps, and there is some way to root this lg l3

  25.   George said

    nothing happened?? or was I wrong about something?

  26.   melisamalla said

    I rooted my device and everything was going wonderfully free memory, the l3 got faster, etc but one day I ran out of battery and the cell phone went off, the surprise was that when I turned it on, it no longer passed the logo of the cell phone company that I use, so I decided to restore it to the factory (with the recovery of the cell phone) and ps I shit more or because now it does not go beyond the lg logo someone knows what can be done, I made a backup with the lg pc suite but it no longer recognizes the device

  27.   Stevens said

    I rooted my LG L3 E400G and everything worked super well for me, the superuser came out, I downloaded the ROM manager and everything was fine, until I updated the firmware. From then on the cell phone returned as factory and I have returned to root and I no longer get the supersuser, what should I do ????

    1.    paola said

      You just have to download the SUsuperusar from the play store and it is rooted again

  28.   Julrique said

    I root it and I installed the clocworkmod and apart from that I installed link2sd and the memory sd no longer recognizes me, someone who can help me, thank you!

    1.    Roberto Verdi said

      maybe at the time you partitioned your sd you did it wrong do it again

  29.   laura said

    hello someone who answers, I did all the steps but ahira has stayed on the lg screen !!

    1.    laura said

      I already solved it, I just restarted it manually and it worked to the perception, thanks!

  30.   Juanca said

  31.   CARMEN said

  32.   limeton said

    Let's see I have the v10p version of November (it must be the last one). I have tried a lot of times to root it but it denies me the root.
    My question is: how would I install another version without having it rooted? Greetings and thanks.

  33.   Dymytry said

    If it tells me that it fails to encrypt a link saying that the permission is forbidden, why is it? What's more, I can't find the Superuser drawer.

  34.   Manuel Alejandro Gonzalez Bust said

    It did not work, everything was exactly the same and I did it step by step, I better stay as I am and do not send a shit

  35.   ADE said

    My mobile does not restart, I have done everything, it only says IT IS NOT RECOGNIZED AS AN EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL PROGRAM

  36.   Gustavo Aliaga Galvez said

    Sorry I did not quit, I restarted and restarted and nothing does not come out the super user….
    in the run when I press any key it shows you that it cannot be done or something like that according to translation you can make it more detailed when talking about the download of the PC suit and everything pucha because I did all the steps but nothing -_-!

    I hope you can support!

    All this catches me again ...
    I am absolutely out of this new technology thing
    and I have a question that I would like to know if it can be resolved ...

    I have a Lg L3-E400 android 2.3.6
    and software version V10p Nov 19 2012
    ... and a lot of applications that I want to get rid of
    - youtube (why if I can enter through the internet application)
    - google play (why if I can enter through the internet application)
    - Google Talk
    - google +
    - google messenger
    - play books
    - google settings

    My questions are:
    1st. Will I be able to get rid of all this as root?
    Or do I have to be root and also install the 'ES root'?
    2nd. I can become root ... without having to put another ROM ...
    remove all the chusta ... and UNrootearme?
    3rd. Is it necessary to have an SD card for all this? ...
    because I don't have a ...
    4th. What I say are outrageous?

    Thank you,
    I await your help as inept of the new technologies that I am.

    I already rooted my cell and everything is fine, when installing clockworkmod everything is fine but when restarting it remains only in "lg" and from there there is no solution for fabor

  49.   Peter Rhodes said

    Forgive my ignorance of the subject ... all I want is to have more space to install applications, because the internal memory of this LG e400g is very small. I want them to be installed on the microSD, which now only has 20 MB free. I read that the solution is to root it ... I followed the instructions in the tutorial ... everything is normal, but the SUPERUSER folder does not appear

    Hello, my mobile has not been rooted, once I open run.bat it runs, it says 'Device found' so it finds the device but then the mobile shuts down and I think the run.bat tries to create folders and files within it mobile, but of course how it is turning off because nothing is copied to the mobile, once after everything I turn it on and I will see if the 'superuser' application is there but nothing appears. (I have the drivers and everything installed correctly) thanks.

  53.   Juan Manuel said

  54.   mary said

    Hello .. I did the step by step, the cell restarts as you said, but during the process it appears (on the black screen) that it has not been possible to install superuser and that is when it restarts again, which happens for about 3 times until It appears "press key to finish", but obviously nothing was installed, because all the time an error appears .. aaaahh !!!. I do not understand anything. Well and at the end of the "installation" obviously this app does not come out

  55.   Mijail cespedes said

    Hello… .I have already done all the steps…. the cell phone restarts 3 times but it does not install the super application

    I have a lg-e400g .. but I installed pc suite and the computer DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE CELL PHONE AND IT DOES NOT LET ME USE PC SUITE .. WHEN I connect the cell phone with the cable I get the following options: charge, usb storage and pc software. and tried in the three ways with my other cell phone if it comes out pc suite (it's a nokia c2 or ose nokia suit) and I don't know what to do anymore, probe towelroot in its versions and framaroot..I appreciate your answer

    1.    orpep zaid said

      the LG l3 e400g I have one like it, you have to leave it in PC Software,
      but first go and check in settings - Applications (Unknown sources must be activated)
      then you enter further down in Development and activate the 1st and 3rd and then you leave it in PC Software

      If you already have it, because 8 months have passed, tell me how can I contact you to see the issue of the recovery step

  57.   Order Zaid said

    good,
    I have a problem; I can't connect to the play store with the cell phone, so I activate the recovery
