Deploying a new LG Fuel L34C: Advanced How-to

I'll have to amend my personal LG Fuel setup information that I created with some of the info you have as well. I didn't bother disabling/freezing apps, but I should.

If you are curious, my setup steps are as follows:

General Setup:

  • (Initial setup) Set internet connection -> Uncheck "Mobile Network" -> Login to Wifi

  • Login to Gmail & uncheck all the things

  • Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Uncheck "Auto-sync data"

  • Settings -> Sound -> Volumes -> {Turn down all volumes}

  • Settings -> Sound -> Sound profile -> "Silent"

  • Settings -> Display -> Brightness -> Set to 0%

  • Settings -> Lock screen -> Select screen lock -> "None"

  • Settings -> Security -> Enable "Unknown sources"

  • Settings -> Security -> Uncheck "Verify apps"

  • Settings -> About phone -> Software information -> Tap "Build number" 7 times (enables Developer options)

  • Settings -> Developer options -> Enable "Stay awake"

Root the LG Optimus Fuel:

  1. Launch "Browser" -> browse to the Towelroot website (https://towelroot.com/)
  2. Tap on the big (red) Lambda icon. The towelroot app should begin downloading on your device.
  3. Pull down the notification bar and click the downloaded file (tr.apk) to install towelroot
  4. Once installed, select to Open the towelroot application.
  5. Tap three times on the "welcome to towelroot" message
  6. A box should appear with some values in it. Change those values to: 1337 0 0 0 4 0
  7. Tap the "make it ra1n" button
  8. Your device should now be rooted!

  9. Launch the Google Play Store -> Search -> type "SuperSU" -> Click the SuperSU app by Chainfire -> Install

  10. Once SuperSU is done installing, select to Open the app

  11. Select "Continue" to update the SU binary -> "Normal" -> "Reboot"

  12. Launch the SuperSU app -> Settings -> Default access -> "Grant"

Install/Configure PerkTV:

  • Launch the Google Play Store -> Search -> type "Perk tv" -> Install
  • Once installed, select to Open the Perk TV application
  • Signin to Perk TV
  • Click through the tutorial
  • Click the 3 bars at the top left to open the menu -> Scroll to the bottom of the menu -> Enable "Low Bandwidth Video"
  • Exit PerkTV, (Create a shortcut if desired), Launch PerkTV again and click through the remaining tutorial screen.
