I just flashed my Inspire 4g for the first time. Last night I downloaded Simple Root and rooted my device after I flashed the new ROM COREDROID on there i can not install anything from the market place.
I am connect with wifi and sd card is mounted.

Once you go to the market an select ok and then install what exactly happens?

I go to find any app and i click install and then it says Download was unsuccessful idk what is going on with it

Bad flash. Re-flash. Fixt.
You may want to check the MD5sum of the rom you downloaded.

INSTALL CWM-RECOVERY
Before you can install a ROM you need CWM-Recovery.
Video (It is my video):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BChCSyPEfd0&feature=youtu.be
Text:
1. Install the free app Rom Manager from the Play Store
2. Start the app.
3. Press Flash CWM
4. Select the LG Optimus 3D (No Other devices from LG!!!)
5. An window will be opened witch
asks you if you want to give Rom Manager
Superuser rights, give it.
6. Wait till the progress bar is full.
7. You have no CWM-Recovery
BACKUP
If you want to install a new ROM all apps
will be lost so you'll need to backup them
Video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hbz8-HkH0Lg&feature=youtu.be
Text:
1. Download the free app Titanium Backup
from the PlayStore.
2. Open the app and give it SU-rights.
3 Follow the video because I can't say
it in english

Here in the forum are many
ROMS you can try...

RESTORE APPS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHB5-9zoqNU&feature=youtu.be
If you want to restore faster you need the permium version
or the second way to restore apps
RESTORE APPS
This method is faster than the free version
of Titanium Backup but there could be problems
like force closing apps or annoying stuff like this
1. Boot into recovery with Rom Manager or
shut down the phone and press volume down +
3d + power (sometimes a little bit tricky)
2. Go to backup and restore and select advanced
restore.
3. Select the backup with the apps you want to restore.
4. Select restore data.
5. Reboot
INSTALL NEW KERNEL/OVERCLOCKING
1. Download a Kernel from the Forum (Titan Kernel is great!!!)
2. Boot into reckovery
3. !!!Make a Backup!!!
4. Select install zip
5. Select the zip
6. Reboot
After that you can take a look on this:

problem restoring
Hi ive recently ran into problems with my O3d and i need to do a recovery on it. I had rom manager on it and i backed up everything before it went wrong but now all my apps and games and stuff has gone including rom manager!!! Ive also tried the volume down and power button but i cant seem to access the restore part of it only wipe data/factory reset. I know all my stuff is still on my memory card though which makes it the more frustrating lol. Is there anything that can help me with this or is it a case of I just have to start again??? Any help would be grateful. Cheers

You could install a new rom using kdz method then root it then install clockwork recovery then enter clockwork recovery and restore

Hello...
Nice guide you have. Overlaps with manbearpig's somewhat, but you have the video tutorials
For flashing CWM, I recommend using this instead. Prevents the common problem where ROM Manager shows LG Optimus 2x rather than Optimus 3D and the user flashes it anyway, bricking/bootlooping the phone.

You have only included installation of custom roms, You may add installation of stock roms by kdz method. first do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473781&highlight=kdz then http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287236 and get kdz from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=2

thanks for the posts I will add this tomorror or in a few hours because I am now online with my phone and it is to much to write

Nope tried that method and still the same??? I spoke to someone from lg and they said theres a method of doing it through my googlemail account but I'd have to send the handset off??? Any ideas?

so u r on a stock rom which is rooted and you dont seem to be able install cwm and by pressing volume down and power you are entering default android recovery...right
have you tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482713 for installing clockworkrecovery?

[Q] help installing roms ?

i wanted to see if anyone can list the proper steps to install roms on the g2x as ive tried multiple roms and there is always something that wont work( text messaging etc) i figure its because im installing them incorrectly

Use NVflash to install CWM (NOT ROM Manager)
Put the ROM you want on your SD card
Boot into Recovery (Vol down + power button; hold then until second LG logo appears)
Wipe data (factory reset)
Wipe cache
Wipe Dalvik (under advanced options)
Format system and emmc (this is optional, I do it so I can ensure I'm getting a clean install)
Install your ROM
*Fix Permissions* (some ROMs you don't need to do this-check the instructions on the ROM's thread)
Reboot
Wait about ten minutes after it turns on to do anything (also optional)
Enjoy

rtotheichie I ended following all the listed steps you gave me exempt(fix permissions had no idea how to do it) but had the same issue i had last time which is everything works but i can only send text messages but cant receive any. I know it has to do with the rom install as when i restore a phone to previous back up and all text messages i was sent during the time the custom rom was running all are received instantly. I dont know what else to try ive seen people mentioning stuff about updating the baseban or kernel i honestly dont know what those are for but do you think that might be my issue as my g2x is running the lg's last gingerbread update(completely stock)

[HOW-TO] ROOT, CMW, AND JB 4.3 from stock 2.2.1 without a computer [HOW-TO]

hi this is a tutorial of how i got from froyo (android version 2.2) to Jellybean (android version 4.3) without using a computer
ok so here are a few things you will need:
1x micro sd card (incase your data doesnt work to transfer files from computer or other device to phone)
1x a way to use micro sd card in computer (or other device)
Roms:
1x GB rom (the one i used is here)
1x ICS Rom (i used cm9 by entropy found here)
1x JB Rom + gapps (and i used scotts unoffical cm10.2 found here)
1x 3e Recovery (you can find this here and here is a video showing you how to use it)
***APP***
ROOT BROSWER ( or the one mentioned in the video)
ROM MANAGER
FRAMAROOT
ok so lets get to it... oh yeah
**************************** DISCLAIMER**********************
I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THESE FILES AND APPS AND I ALSO AM NOT RESPONISIBLE IF YOU END UP
GETTING A REALLY EXPENSIVE BRICK NOR IS ANYONE ELSE BUT YOUR SELF
-----------------------------------------------------------TUTORIAL----------------------------------------------
ok download the files and install the apps from above
have them on your infuse (by any means you can i had to download them on my s3 and transfer them via sdcard)
ok
STEP 1:
- use framaroot to root your devicejust open it and press aragorn( i assume all infuses will have the same exploit name)
- reboot
STEP 2:
- open rom manager and click install recovery and select galaxy i9000 (they have the same partitions)
itll download a zip
STEP 3:
- follow the video for the 3e recovery installation posted above^
STEP 4:
- reboot revocery but powering off the device and pressing and holding vol up and down and power, once you see samsung come up release power
(once in recovery it should say 3e recovery at the top)
- select install update zip (vol up and down move from one item to the next and power selects it)
(your screen should go blank then come back up in clock work mod recovery)
- once in clock work mod recovery go to wipe data (say yes)
- then wipe cache (say yes) then go to advanced and wipe davlic cache (say yes)
- go back and go into mounts and storage and format system (say yes)
-go back select install zip from sdcard find the zip for the GB rom and select it and select yes ==HURRAY YOU JUST FLASHED A ROM==
- go back and select reboot device
STEP 5:
- once your phone boots up and is loaded go back into recovery (via three button method)
- then repeat the wipes and formatting
- then go to install zip from sdcard, and flash the ICS rom (warning you will get rainbow recovery, but you should still be able to navigate it)
- go to advanced and reboot recovery and flash it again
- once the second flash it done reboot device
FROM THIS POINT ON PLEASE REMOVE THE MICRO SDCARDS FROM THE DEVICE
STEP 6: (for now on the wipes and formating will be called wiping)
- once the device has booted in to cm9 reboot recovery again
- you will still have rainbow recovery but go and wipe it again
- and go and flash the JB Rom (if its one of scotts the first time the flash will fail just flash again)
- after the second flash it should auto boot into recovery (where you will see that it is fixed and no more rainbow)
- flash the JB rom once more and this time flash the gapps as well
REBOOT!
AND THERE YOU GO FROM FROYO (2.2) TO JB (4.3)
