suggestion: GOOGLE LG ANDROID DRIVER
advise: THIS SHOULD BE IN GENERAL NOT ANDROID DEVELOPMENT!
(this has nothing to do with development please read forum rules)

Do you have USB debugging checked in your settings?

if you are just trying to get your computer to find your devise to put music or file on it.... then NO you dont need debugging (i didnt have it checked)
download the LG android driver and plug your phone it via usb cable and it should start downloading it in the bottom taskbar
please google for any other assistance

I had to go to settings, sd card and phone storage, check Mass storage only. That did the trick for me.

just do a google search for lg t mobile g2x usb drivers and download it to your pc. when ur done plug your phone in and your good to go

Worked for me as well, if not then FIRST connect the phone on usb, and THEN check "Mass Storage Mode Only". Thats what it says on the Start Guide on page"31".

So if you READ THE RULES then you should STOP trying to be someone you are not.
This is part of the MODERATORS task. YOU ARE GETTING ANNOYING. Nobody's perfect and if you want to be one then do a spell check first before you POST.

I think there's that super one click method. But I've never tried it so not sure if it's an app or of you need your computer.
Nvflash is probably the best method to root, but that of course requires a computer... how long are you without a computer for?

+1 use a friends pc, it would literally just take a couple minutes. Then just delete the files from their cpu when done.

Cannot use NV Flash without a computer. Sorry.
Maybe you could use a computer at a Library?
Thanked you all for the suggestions. Gonna use my pops pc. Drivers are always my hardest part and my last computer had em installed so it recognized any g2x.. Flashing is easy, drivers are annoying... Thanks

This belongs in Q&A. Please fix yourself. That being said...
-Google how to put your device in Download Mode (set up Odin first then put in DL mode then connect device)
-read the "all in one" thread
If no luck, ENSURE your USB drivers are correct.
If no luck, go to Device Manager in Windows when your phone is plugged in. Find the USB section. Locate the "unrecognized" device. Right click, "forget." Remove phone. Uninstall USB drivers. Reinstall USB drivers. Reconnect phone.
Plz thoroughly review the all in one thread and look at all of (username) appdroid's work.
If this helped plz hit thanks. Pm me and I can walk u thru step by step.

Going through UnlockRoot. My phone connects as a USB Storage device even though USB Debugging is enable. And Gingerbread 2.3.6

Never heard of UnlockRoot.
Anyways, take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603220
As you'll see there are many ways to do it. Assuming you don't have cwm, I believe your best bet is flashing an stock pack through Odin which already includes root & Cwm.

that firmware is old and base on less more complete cm10 port... even the developer of the firmware has abandoned that one.... i'm suggesting you go for a better one like CM10 port itself or Paranoid Android which is better and more complete.

May be the MTP is not click therefore the PC will not recognize it as a drive.
You can check it in the "storage" inside settings. Click the button on right top corner. You will see some options. Make sure MTP is click.
It is better to use the Paranoid rom. I'm using my own build 2.55. The wifi and gps(more than 4 sats.) work fine for me. I think the official pa_6800 from Androidguide.fr will release soon. You may check the following link:
