I currently have the LG Vortex, Android 2.2, and it seems as though Verizon has an update out -$Link to verizon forums - PM me for link& - According to them i need to come here. The update is fairly big, involves an OS update as well as other enhancements. But when i attempt to run the update it fails, and i cant help but think its because of my rooted phone (z4). Am i just S.O.L for the update or can i do it another way?
If you rooted and then removed stock apps, you are SOL for the OTA. To get the OTA, the update program looks to match to the original stock apps (City ID, VZ Navigator, etc) If you removed any stock apps, the update will fail.
Try heading over to the Vortex forum and look through the ROMs there. Chances are there is a CWM flashable zip version of it that will let you get past this problem.
Good luck.
Im not seeing a forum specificaly for the LG vortex, im assuming i need to get into one of the optimus forums?

I bought a LG Optimus t (used, but in excellent condition) for my son. It's stock 2.2.
My question is can I root it and what is the simplest way to do it?
one word

you can find the apk using a google search. google is your friend. if you update to 2.3.3 which was released today as stock rom, that wont work. im currently finding a working method to root the new release.

Just wondering im thinking about getting the LG thrill, would the root and cwm's work for it? Cause if thats the case cyanogenmod.com has some firmware ill just slap on this beast and be good to go
I've been asking the samething I just got the phone yesterday. When you root and install rom manager it comes up as optimus V so I'm stuck .. if you want to goforandroid clockworkmod.com you can somehow flash the LG Optimus 3d cwm but I don't know how nor do I want to brick my phone..

I'd like to know as well.
Only difference that seems to be is some carriers use different frequencies but that seems odd, LGs listings match up 100% AFAIK and should just be a naming thing and perhaps branding.
However ROOT should be no problem, flashing stuff like CustomROMs and CWM on the other hand could be dangerous if something isn't exactly the same but since Thrill just got out I'm guessing it will take a little while before a dev gets his hands dirty with one (since most that wanted one probably got a O3D instead).
The reason ROM Manager shows up as Optimus V is that Thrill registers as that because of P925 and for some reason ROM Manager sees that as a Optimus V.
so do you think if i rename my device in the build prop from 295 to 290 it should flash the correct recovery for Optimus 3D? Oh, i have ATT's LG Thrill by the way.
Thrill users have flashed O3D Roms and they say it worked with no problems. Just fix the APN.
hi ups,do you flash your 925 with the 920's rom? i wonder

All the gingerbread roms you see are unofficial ATT Infuse leaks or ports from another device
Big Dog Infuse I997 Zeus Rom
Gingerbread has not been officially released for Infuse yet. Checking for updates will do nothing until an official is released by AT&T.
Otherwise, you have to download one of the many roms on this site. Then you have to use a tool such as clockworkmod or ODIN to flash it to your phone. The thread for each rom will usually tell you which tool to use with some instructions. As bignate78 said, these are not official releases. Some are unaltered (stock) while others have heavy modifications to look and function. Be sure to READ as much as you can before asking questions or attemting to flash for the first time. Developers here will bite your head off if you don't take the time to read the threads.
At&t is behind didn't they promise gingerbread in 2011 its almost 2012

Like stated below it is not an official release from AT&T. But after trying about 5 different ROMs, all of which where awesome, just couldn't find one to my liking.
So I went back to stock below is one I used, everything meaning all hardware works great, yes it takes it back to stock gingerbread which is great for the Infuse brings out the performance of the phone. IMHO
[AT&T][2.3.6]Heimdall One-Click Back-To-Stock UCKJ4 + Easy CWM install
Plus I rooted this using the
[APP]SuperOneClick v2.3.2 - Better LG Phone Support!
All of which are located in the "Infuse 4G Android Development"
Alright, sO I have seen this horse kicked a few times. But here I am kicking it yet again.
I have my LG Optimus L70 M323 Rooted, Bootloader unlocked. And I just want a custom ROM. I dont know how to write them, or obviously I wouldnt be here.
I scoured the forums, and the latest things I had found were back in august, with their DL links removed. So my question, is that is there even a Custom ROM floating around that I can get my hands on ? Just something to kill the Stockness of what I have. something slimmed down from the stock would even be nice.
I know this is a midrange phone and its not going to see alot of attention. But something other than stock would be nice.
Here it's the only one I know of...

Dear ,
I have an unlocked LG G3 D850. It had the at&t and it was causing problems with day to day use. I put twrp, cloudyg3, and rooted. Of course 5.0 is not good, so I want to either revert back to 4.4 or 6.0, but without at&t bloatware.
My question is, can I flash the D855 on the D850? This is not a device specific question. Does at&t change the hardware? Can I flash a non at&t on an at&t device? I would flash the new 6.0 at&t but do not want the bloatware. I would also like to keep it like stock lg, without the CM launcher or that stuff.
Again, this is a general question and not device specific.
Thank you modders!
(I researched and saw no answer to my question anywhere)
