Hi I just updated my lg - g2x with gingerbread released by t-mobile, my phone which was rooted earlier is not rooted anymore and i have tried all available versions of super one click but none is working. please help i need to try other roms.
Wrong place to be posting this... And there already are tons of threads on this...
But all you have to do is re-flash Clockwork Recovery, and install any ROM you'd like... Preferably a tweaked 2.3.3 OTA ROM.

hi,
phone details are
LG P920, Android 2.3.5
baseband L6260_MODEM_Sic_01.1042.00,
Kernel 2.6.35.7, build GRJ90,
SOFTWARE VERSION LGP920-V20c-APR-25-2012
I have tried rooting thru superoneclick 2.3.3 and tried Megatron_Root_Dan_Rosenberg
with superoneclick, stops at step#7 and with megatron, get the message ädb"is not a valid command.
can someone please help me with a step by step guide for rooting the v20c as i have tried umpteen times with the above rooting tools but failed miserably.
I am more of a noob than a seasoned campaigner, please be patient.

Megatron Root
Hi,
Megatron root definitely works.
It took me many goes before it actually worked...It kept saying something about files being "corrupt" (it was a while back so cannot remember exact details).
The phone would reboot a few times, and end up being the same and unrooted.
What worked for me was i did a factory reset, and then ran Megatron root again. It may have had something to do with the number of apps i had on the phone. It then finally worked.
Hope that helps.

This is a bit late, but adb is android debugging bridge, and is required to transfer files to root locations without su privilages. Adb is part of the android sdk and in the package of platform tools. To use adb you have to install it and configure it, look on youtube, then from command prompt you can us it.

Hi Schubeir,
CM7 is always a winner in terms of a good stable ROM, but you will lose the goodies that make our phone unique (3D as well as HDMI). Very fast and smooth, and because the ROM includes Theme Chooser, there's a huge selection of themes to choose from that will change your entire Android interface.
I'm currently using Promethius v1.3. Fantastic ROM...fast/smooth and keeps most of the stock LG apps. Feels like stock software, only much much faster and everything works! however, this version i dont think will work with your current baseband. you wont get and service if you flashed it.
Ultimately, there are many good ROMs to find in the Development section, so just have fun trying them out. whats good for me might not be good for you.
by the way, do you have ghost calls on V20C?
Hi,
Did not wait long enough on V20C to know if there were ghost call issues!! the UI was behaving like stop n go n stop n go, lagging every now n then, hence wanted to root and change over to custom rom.
I need to have the 3D and HDMI, purchased this model only for this. I am at present using the DNA_GB 3.3.3 based on the new V21E rom. when i flashed the ThiaiZ O3D V2.7.1 GB.------ NO NETWORK!!!!!
Was it due to the 21D baseband in the ROM? do I then need to flash the 21e Baseband?
which do i flash first, the base band or the ROM?
Cant believe I am trying all this at the young age of 52!!!
Thanks lots for all your help.

OK Schubeir,
I had the exact same problem so no problems. Yes the baseband is what is causing the lack of network.
I know there is any easier way to flash baseband, but i found it quite easy flashing my phone back to a stock v21e kdz, and then flashing a custom ROM built using the v21e as a base. The reason for this is V21E is proven not to have ghost calls, so thats the biggest benefit. it also has much better battery life. And finally, you can flash Promethius which has all the stock goodies (3D, HDMI).
Follow this link and go to point 3 - LG Flash tool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491870
you must follow it step by step word for word or it wont work. Of course you will need to download the V21E kdz file...jut do a search and you should find it.
After flashing back to stock V21E, root again with Megatron, then flash ROM as you normally would. then flash GAPPS (google Apps) right away also.
Bit long winded, but its a one of and its well worth it getting your phone setup right. With Promethius, the phone runs awesome!

Hi Friends,
I want to flash MIUI gingerbread ROM in sensation. But I am not able to find it anywhere. Please share link where I can download it from and which firmware will I have to use with it?
Thanks in advance.
I didn't find it anywhere! Maybe in some P2P program? but if you find it in some place like emule or utorrent, check the md5!
I used the attached firmware when I went back from ICS to GB.
For ROMs, look here,
http://www.htcsensationroms.com/all-builds/
Type things like GB/Gingerbread/2.7 etc into the 'smart filter' box to get rid of the ICS ROMs and you should find at least one GB MIUI ROM. I think I tried PyroMod MIUI but the camera flash didn't work if I remember right.
Hope this helps.....
HI everyone!
I just recently installed V20a lollipop on my phone via LG OTA update, rooted it using 1 click root and installed bootloader using the method found on the MLKernel thread (run batch file > installs chinese recovery > install app to install english philz).
I was wondering, can I flash another kind of 5.0 based ROM on top of what I have now? (rooted stock w/ recovery and custom kernel) or do I have to go through several hoops like bootloader unlock? I know for sure the Optimus G requires an unlocked bootloader (my phone before this).
I was planning on flashing a 5.0 ROM i found on a random site that's built like stock android (i love stock), but I'm not sure if there are any more pre-requisites before flashing.
ADDED:
Here's the link to the site i found: http://www.unlock-bootloader.info/mp3-0/lg-g-pro-2-6052.html
If it makes any difference, my device is the international D838 16gb version.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks
what kind of rom is this? stock with original lollipop theme?

I do not think its a genuine ROM. Following is the give away:-
In tutorial it says:-
1. Install the ROM Manager on your LG G Pro 2 . Get it from Google Play Store, then install the clockwork mod recovery. You also can use ROM Installer application from JRummy Apps Inc.(Get it from Google Play Store).
ROM Manager is not compatible with GPRO2. You cannot install recovery like that on GPro 2
2. There is no AOSP/AOKP/CM/Google Stock (screenshots are for some CM type ROM) available for our device.
3. The link Tutorial Video : Easy Way To Download ROM mentioned on the page is a video for some survey filling tutorial.
Honestly I did not have the guts to check the download links.
Regards,
Cyrus
