Two things: I flashed this ROM and noticed that, while it was writing, it skipped the md5, stating that none was detected. There was a moment of regret, but then when I rebooted, everything looked great. When I attempted to enter the passcode for my wifi, however, I could not get the keyboard to show up on the screen. I messed with it for a while but couldn't get anywhere with it, so I went into recovery and reverted to my G3 build.

Did I do something wrong, or is this thing bugged?

You guys are blazing a trail I know nothing about, but I am following, reading all I can, trying to get up to snuff in the android world. As I may have stated on another forum, I'm in music professionally, but I take all of my amp, footpedals and guitars apart to mod them as well, just so ya'll know where I'm coming from.

Thanks fellas.

booting into safe mode:  From power off, press power button, and press and hold volume down button

booting into the TWRP recovery: From power off, press and hold power button and volume up button until you see the LG logo, then let go off both, then press and hold power button and volume up button.

Still haven't found any new roms for this phone, but I did find an update to the recovery(twrp-2.8.4.0) that daishi4u put out last year.


Seems to work fine.

I rechecked the settings just a little bit ago, and where they were on the Ultimate (Settings > Display > Home Button LED) doesn't even exist. I tried a few 3rd party apps, like Light Flow, and Light Manager, and those didn't work either. As for the IR blaster, the phone comes factory installed with "QuickRemote" which uses the supposed IR blaster. I installed AnyMote, which reports the phone has a "LG Internal IR Blaster" as well. Not to mention, I can see the blaster next to the headphone jack. I'm just really confused as to why any of this is.

My LG Ultimate 2 recently fell upon some hard times (A.K.A. I managed to drop it on a metal corner, on the screen, bam, dead). I purchased the LG Access LTE, thinking it was just the better version of the Ultimate 2, and while its a good phone, its missing some stuff... pretty important stuff. The home button notification light doesn't work (even though I can see its actually a LED, just like the Ultimate 2, hell, it doesn't even HAVE a notification light), and the IR blaster doesn't function. Is this stuff a custom ROM could fix, is the phone a dud (in which case I'll return it), or is there something I'm missing? I love the phone, other than the few things i mentioned previously.

Thank You , i did not use the most recent version.

I have now downloaded version 4.6 and it worked !!

do you know if there are free unlock codes available for this phone somewhere ?

Mine is a straighttalk phone and they will not provide unlock code because i have not had 12 months phone service using this phone on straighttalk. 

I have also checked a couple of the online places for paid unlock codes and they do not have the codes for this phone.
