Also take a look at this to understand why this happened with Ubuntu already on your system, and work with grub2 the next time in a different way you may like even better.

I am wondering, just for information's sake, are you copying the LL ISO from "drivedroid" to Mate first and then creating the live USB, or are you using your phone as a live emulated drive to install LL? Is the LL live ISO available on "drivedroid"?

I used my phone to emulate liveUSB and installed MATE on Desktop.
Then I downloaded Linux Lite 3.0 to MATE and used netbootin,usb maker gtk and dd to create liveUsb,all them failed to boot.
After all fails I tried to emulate liveUSB with Lite from phone(downloaded through drivedroid app),just like I did with MATE (as I thought maybe my usb is defected) and again it failed.
Also big thanks for grub2 HOW-TO this will come very handy!!!

Have you had a chance to try solution in that link I posted yet? I'm really curious myself if that works. Let us know please.

I havent as I dont have my USB right now,Im going to try custom grub first and if it fails Ill have to wait for my friend to give me back usb.
Either way I will notify you if I failed or successfully booted

Good job pavlepiramida!
And great tip, trinidad! I'd totally forgotten about option to boot ISO directly from HDD.
