Hi there Q & A Team,
I've been reading up on rooting my shiny new LG Optimus One P500h this entire weekend and came across this thread that was generously put together by the_ERROR. One issue- as helpful as the thread was all of the links in the OP appear to be dead! Any alternatives for finding the 2.2 firmware that I need to get busy?
i followed this step by step guide and rooted successfully. https://lgp500.wordpress.com/2011/03/25/how-to-downgrade-your-firmware-lg-optimus-one-p500/

Okay, so I have the LG Optimus T and I have it soft rooted with z4root. The problem is this: There are no custom ROM's for the LG Optimus T. I can't overclock my CPU (which is a major draw to rooting) with the kernel I have installed. Can someone please help me? I am very new to this, and I'm open to criticism, but I'd appreciate it if you'd answer with helpful criticism. Talk to me as if I'm a beginner, not an idiot. Thanks in advance, guys.
I also rooted my optimus t recently woohooo!
Anyone? Is there a mod for it?:d
Well here is a useful link to JoeMomRom which he striped down.
h t t p://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-t/52395-rom-joemomrom-v1-only-optimus-t-5.h t m l
The rom is called bareoptimus. I was having trouble with link so if its broke let me know and I will try to find another.
Once you root you are going to want to flash custom recovery too, just incase anything at anytime go's wrong. Hope this helps!!!!
here is a link to a custom ROM i love it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920787
I wouldnt of used Z4root, from what I read it wasnt really meant for 2.2, I used Gingerbreak 1.20 and everything is fine...Im currently using devoid froyo final with superblue v5 theme and it's running smoothly, I tried using the darktheme but it didnt work for me, I started years ago with rooting and my very first android phone was the tmobile g1, that's back when there werent programs for rooting you had to learn how to root using TE or ADB, im still in the process of learning everything I can myself and would love to learn how to cook my own roms
Help need with rooting Optimus T
I having a hard time rooting my optimus T. Can someone give me a step by step tutorial or a video. Thank you
ok so as the title states, i need some help with my lg optimus q on straight talk wirless
this phone to my knowledge is simmilar to the s, and the v versions with the t and the one versions being gsm but i am not sure on that
heres some info
Modle number LGL55C
Android version 2.3.4
Baseband version LGL55C_6170
Kernel version 2.6.35.7
Build number GRJ22
software version LGL55CV1
so to my knowlege this is a basic version of droid direct from google without much done to it but to lock out tethering in any way and ofcourse the root access. also to my knowlege the 2.3.4 must be downgraded for the root to work before being rebooted into that version or the root will dissapear. this is all based on the optimus v so im not sure on any of this. and i realy need some help
HELP PLEASE
*Bump* Also searching for this
i've found a few links for the recovery and an alpha version of a rooted Operating system for it.
But i've not found the directions for rooting it.. which makes my other finds useless. and i cant post the links to them because some stupid spam prevention on this site demands i have at least 8 posts before i can put up links.
** i found a working root for it.. but since i cant post links.. i'll do what i can..
androidcentral .com /virgin-mobile-optimus-slider/126357-possible-root-try-4 .html
remove the spaces.. you will find a post on the page that has this..
You could more than likely follow [How-To] Root, Custom Recovery, NANDroid Backup but when you get to post #2 (custom recovery) you'll want to adjust for Recovery for the Straight Talk Optiums Q(LGL55C)
follow those links and directions.. i have it working on mine
now about some custom operating systems.. i've only found one.. i've misplaced its link its called lgl44c_Dirty_Alpha_2 think the author said it was just stock with a few extras added.
best of luck to you.. sorry i cant give out the links.. blame the spammers and the forums rules... since my account is several years old you'd think i'd be able to..
Bump any progress?
life is better with root and ICS.
any update

Check into AreaRomQ so far i have found nothing on here for this phone other than people trying to find where to get mods and other things for it with no luck at all. I ran across that rom around july/august last year. You can find it on AndroidArea51 . com (take out the spaces... fail for the no link posting for people who actually are trying to help) Hope this helps you guys out a little better!!!

Hi, first go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1305945. That's the rooting and upgrade guide for your phone. Also read the New Member's Guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282679. The links in the Guide are awesome. Then you'll want to go to the Android Development forum for your particular phone, at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=617.
First you will need to go to the link Which TheContinental posted it has avarious range of how to upgrade root and load custom roms onto your x10 mini. And you will need to go to the x10 part of the forum for more info
I cant find a method to root my LG Escape. Im hoping someone has an idea on how to do this. ICS 4.0.4 build# imm761 Software version p87010c
hellooooooo... (sound of the wind)..... anyone out there????
Found it for you
It is posted on here how to do it. I found it with the search function which is encouraged to use. To make it easier, and thus more helpful, I will provide the main threads on it. Make sure to read the threads fully though as the whole thread contains useful information. I succeeded in rooting my LG Escape with the instructions, but with version 10f so I KNOW it still works. Last I checked, the 1.6 archive still is corrupted so I recommend using 1.2
