After so many nights without sleep, i found solution for rooting new LG P500 official rom update.
DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK, I WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE !!!
Read instructions carefully
First of all, download archive from here and extract it to your desktop
And download driver pack from here
1. Back up all data with ASTRO file manager, you can find it on market.
2. Hard reset your phone either with system->privacy->erase all data or turning your phone off, and holding HOME,VOLUME DOWN and POWER BUTTON.
3. After phone boots up, you have clean file system, then go to Applications, and turn on USB Debugging mode
NOW THE FUNNY PART
1. Connect your phone with usb cables, make sure you have installed all the drivers needed, and connect phone in DEBUGGING Mode (provided a bit upper on this post)
2. In the extracted folder called root on your desktop, go to ADB folder and start cmd7.exe if u run win7 or cmdXP.exe (run as administrator in both options) if ur pc runs win XP. (your address bar should like something like this: C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME HERE\Desktop\root\ADB
3. After starting cmd7 or cmdXP, type following commands
Code:
adb devices
then
Code:
adb shell
(symbol will change to $ or #) and copy paste following command into your terminal
Code:
echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf
4. After doing this, REBOOT YOUR PHONE
5. After reboot, go to root folder on desktop again, and start SuperOneClick.exe
6. Select GingerBreak method and press root button
7. After few seconds VOILA !!! You have rooted Optimus One.
8. REBOOT PHONE and update superuser app from market (mine was updated automatically)
To unroot device, follow steps from 1 to 6 in FUNNY PART and select unroot instead gingerbreak. and you will have unrooted device
I tried to root all kinds with android SDK and many others, and always had problems with force close. Running on this method for 3 days, and have no errors.
This is my tutorial, if u consider it helpfull, think about donating for cofee or beer.
Comments, Questions... post it below, i will read them and answer ASAP
EDIT : If you want to have beautiful CRT OFF Animation on your phone read tut here be sure to backup phonebook mine was deleted, but now i have crt off animation, which i looooove and think that is the second best thing to do after rooting
VIDEO IS LOCATED HERE

Thanks for your effort
Hi, just "superusered" my p500, awesome. Thanks for the tutorial.
Dude nice tutorial... BTW Does this metod work with older version of Android on Optimus One (because I have one Optimus One with Gingerbread, and one with Froyo)...

Try EXACTLY as written, because if you don't do like it is mentioned above, root will be wrong, and u will have app.crash on superuser. If Everything is done by my tut, your superuser app will be updated and phone rooted.
Try again, reading row by row
Hi, today i rooted my Optimus One with 2.3.3 but i have one problem - Android Market don't work (Server error, try again later (...) - something like this).
How can i fix it ?
I think that i solved it.
I replaced SuperUser.apk with new one, downloaded from hxxp://androidsu.com/superuser/ and now everything seems to work correctly
Worked like a charm. Thank you
Getting SU error everytime I try to do anything on Titanium Backup, even after I updated SU. Any thoughts?
EDIT: Seems that, besides updating the SU app, I also needed to update the binary through SU itself. It seems to be working fine now. Thnx!
I succeeded too..

wow! worked like a charm. followed everthing exactly, and no problem has been encountered. thanks a lot.
Brilliant
Hello,
This worked perfectly, i now have root.
I must say i did not hard reset my phone (step 2) and still worked.
Thanks uploader for this beautiful tool
Cheers,

ok, if you are newbie, rooting is not necessary, but if you already have rooted phone it is ok. Go to market on your mobile and download "Android booster" easy tool to keep your phone in performance state. you can see about it here, and it is free
Alright so, i rooted my phone using superoneclick method. I want to flash Smooth Maximus ROM GingerClone v1 onto my phone, i know i need CWM but i cant seem to install it. I tried following this guide :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124453 , but android commander tells me my phone isnt rooted. What now? Thank to anyone who attempts to help me.
Android Commander has a known issue with recognizing the SK4G root method.
Follow the same instructions, but use something like ES File Explorer to push the recovery from your SD card to /system/bin instead.
exactly what my post was on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236567&page=2
hey add me on yahoo messenger.. [email protected] i can give you link to my favorite rom for sk4g mods for it and walk u through rooting it if you want

Finally managed to root my LG Prada P940 using the older version of SuperOneClick 1.7 after many tries from 2.3.3 & on... Just need to choose Exploit option rageagainstthecage instead of psneuter & hit on root!
Anyway, i don't really know what can i do with it besides uninstalling those pesky pre-installed apps. Hurhurhur.
Good luck!

Crazy that this one, I decided to try it and it works perfectly at the first time.
I have not deleted anything.
You just have to update the superuser and the binary as they are very old.
Thank you.

Maybe you can try to extract the apps you deleted from my first link, and push via ADB. I don't think you can flash the whole thing, but maybe someone can make it CWM-flashable.

Ok first step to step:
1. USB debugging must be on.
2. Start the Super One Click(run as admin on win7,win8)
3. Connect Prada to PC and choose battery charge only option.
4. When PC install all drivers hit the root button. If all goes well After 30sec you will get rooted phone.
It is recommended that before all this you have LG PC Suite installed. It is not important that LG PC Suite be active during rooting.
Please deactivate all antivirus aps on Your PC. After rooting you dont have to update superuser apk on your Prada. It will work perfect as it is.

I got a friend at work that wants me to mod his Triumph. I was able to root it using gingerbreak.apk but I can't get wireless tether to work. He also would like a theme. Soooo....
Do I need a computer to put CWM on his phone? I read that all you do is replace something in the folder of the recovery.
So, could I use root explorer to replace the recovery and reboot?
I really wanna put CM7 on his phone so he can use the theme chooser app and use themes off the market, sorry if I didn't search enough but its not my phone and I don't wanna spend much time with it.
Theoretically I should be able to have CM7 on there in 10min?
Thanks in advance for your help!!
- Sent from my OG Epic 4G runnin fine on CM9 -
You access the folder with the recovery.img in download mode. So you need a computer to do that.
I wrote a guide with step by step instructions over at androidforums.com in the all things root section for the Triumph. I would recommend that you check that out.
Hey all,
Okay so my best friend is a quadriplegic..He gave me a Digix Tablet model Tab-730,android 4.0.4,base band V1.10_20120929,kernal ver,3.0.8+,4 gb external card and 2 gb internal, to root so I could help him get the most out of his device with accessibility and such..Anyways I successfully rooted it with Bin5ary,and now I have a huge issue I cant fix....
Every time I reboot,it factory resets itself..Every time still showing superSU as an active app..
Then I cant install more than 1 app without it saying its full and to manage my apps..
I read online its a problem with busybox and to copy /system/sbin/busybox to system/bin and reboot..First of ll theres no /system/sbin/busybox to begin with because I cant get busybox in the system...I can make changes with a good file manager downloaded apk from my email,but cant install busybox after..I can install busybox first but then my stock file manager isnt letting me access root!
Please help my buddy and I out! Endless thanks to anyone who can!
