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!!!
I´ve been using gingerbread rom´s for a long time, but in the last days, when i flashed acura´s 3d max rom and then prometheus rom and kernel, when i try to connect to my network the phone gives me a message that i have inserted wrong pin and i have 3 more tries, the pin his right and this happens 2 or 3 times then it gets the network but it only works for a few minutes, and then it gives me "reorganizing internal processes..." message.
I´ve been reading about basebands and kernel's and stuff, but i still the same.
So i have one first question, i have on my phone information this baseband version: L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1042.00
Is this the right version? Gingerbread baseband?
Thank you
I had the same problem after flashing Prometheus kernel I had to reflash my kdz to fix it

You know what RTFM means? Here is used RTFF...cause you have it all here. Anyway a hint: use Lg updater, go to customer assistance, emergency and recovery mode, put your IMEI and you should be good to go with the latest baseband.

But just as you click in the Optimus 3D general section you'll see 3 sticky threads: Firmware update, [TUTORIAL] Flash BIN rom, Unbrick, Update - Optimus 3d (Service Flash software) and [GUIDE] Manbearpig's guide to a smooth ride with your O3D. From all three I'm sure that you can pull out some infos. In the end... got your problem solved?

Hello, i did a lot of research before i ask, and only today i knew how to realy see the baseband number on my phone like people writh in this forum (V21and so). The phone information tells us "L6260_Modem..." and i was thinkin how the hell can i say if it is v20a or v21e???
That was the purpose of my question. Instead of that, i did a kdz flash following post 14 of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1651901&page=2
I flashed 21e following the instructions, but my question still remained till today, How can i tell if it has v21e installed on my phone?
So today i was readind a threas, don´t know exactly wich, sorry, but i found the answer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sibbor.getril
Just install it and it gives you the baseband that you have installed on your phone.

...The baseband version I see it on the last line of the "About phone" option from Settings menu. But there are some issues with some ROMs, for example I've used the Meemo Xplay ROM that, for some reason gave no info about IMEI and software version (baseband).
I restore stock ROM using suggested tutorial and now in about phone have:
Baseband version L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1042.00
Kernel version 2.6.35.7+
Build number GRJ90
Software version LGP920-V21e-Apr-19-2012
Before this I have Promethius 1.5 together with battery draining and dont know if this is OK after flashing stock ROM? Can I install Promethius 1.5+ now with new kernel?
Hey Guys,
I currently have this phone and have installed the 4.0.4 ICS update from Bell. However, I just realized that I am not able to install CWM on this 4.0.4 which is very disappointing. I tried to follow the rooting procedure but I kept encountering stock boot which does now allow me to install ZIP for root/super user. One of my buddy told me that I have to downgrade. Can anybody confirm that. It seems like all the rooting procedures are only for gingerbread 2.3.4-2.3.6. If anybody can help me, much appreciated. Thx in advance
It will not work (someone correct me if im wrong) because you have the HD LTE version and this forum is for just the LTE version.

But the skyrocket is basically the HD LTE without the HD screen, these two devices are crosslisted and always mentioned in the same discussions.
Not sure if the same applies to SR HD but I would lean towrd it's similar ...
Use ODIN to flash CWM recovery (use .tar format NOT .img = search the development section "sk8.... recovery")..Check only auto reboot in ODIN and click PDA tab and point the browser toward the .tar recovery then click start ... It will reboot automatically ...
Reboot again into recovery and install the zip for rooting , reboot , open SU and update as it asks you , you're done
See Vincom's thread about all that....It's sticky in SR forums development ..
Hit Thanks if I helped you , an idiot was bragging on me on how many thanks he has compaired to his posts count forgetting that , unfortunately ,too many douches are here on the forums like himself(he has a sig like McDonald's billboard on the interstate saying "Hit thanks button" ...

you just need to downgrade back to the stock GB rom and then load the cwm and it will work perfectly, thats what happen to me this morning.
Maybe I need to refrain responding here for SGH-i757m, but please refer the the following thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1707126
Developers Out there, Please List out the incompatibilities between Optimus 3D Cube and Optimus 3D so as to port the ICS from Optimus 3D Cube. Since Both are having Identical H/W Specs (except for the internal memory), what could go wrong?
errrm should this go to development section? and I think u would want to change the thread name to something else so as to avoid people having heart attacks... seriously first thing that comes to mind when u see the thread is that someone has done it finally...
Lg Prada has identical specs too but if you flash that rom you will brick your phone!
So to port roms from others Lg phone is not the "normal way", is a way ABSOLUTELY NOT RECOMENDED!
Just people who are so much expert to keep in life the phone in every situation, can do this experiment without brick the LG O3D
WTF???? BAN!!!!!!!!!!!
Heart Attack!!!
Don't write that question in this thread! Ever!
SU870: CDMA 2G Radio
P920: GSM 2G Radio
If both phones were GSM then it might be worth trying. Being that they have different radios and there is no source code you will not be able to compile a compatible kernel to make the radio work.
A developer could put in 50+ hour weeks trying to get it working and LG would almost certainly release their ICS update before all the bugs were ironed out making all that work useless.
I recommend you chillax with a margarita and just wait it out (or upgrade to a newer phone that already has ICS or JB).
Sorry Brothers, But I can't edit the Title. I just Want to try to port but do not know where to start. I have edited custom roms And it seems if we get the room boot up then everything would run like a charm. I would like your serious Help.
Moderators, please help me change the title or put it up in the appropriate section. I thought of starting a development section for the port.

Then how is the port from p920 to su760 possible? They are both gb, but still...
Sorry, is su760 GSM too?

Source code is available for GB here. Yes, the SU760 is GSM and at first glance appears to have the same radio chipset, albeit difference antennas. That would make porting ROMs between the two phones very easy.
Just wondering, I'm not totally familar with kdz files, but could we not extract the files out of the kdz and possibly remove the information about the radio ie remove the cdma radio stuff and just have the actual ics system left and see if that would be flashable/workable? Or if it would be easier get someone with the ics firmware rooted and back it up with CWM and just give it a flash and see if that might give it a go with the gsm radio vs cdma radio? I know it's a long shot but I would try the CWM backup on my O3D if someone posted the files for it. My O3D is just laying around as a backup phone so I'm a go for some testing/tinkering.
Would be better to know the basics to port ICS of SU760 to P920...
Would be very appreciated if an expert of this forum could explain what steps are required in order to make this ICS functional..
We all know theorycally is possible, but in concrete, what is the problem?

Justed a SU760 GB Kernel on a P920 and it boots so ICS Kernel should boot on P920 the Issue is the Bootloader stuff maybe the lock is not what we think it is. it could be the bootloader lock is in fact to prevent P920 from booting ICS
There is something in kernel config that is not compatibile with old bootloader. We will have to wait source to drop to remove that and compile it. If we could get kernel log to work on ICS to see what is the problem.

what do you mean by "phone reboot within awhile"? Is it that the phone keep rebooting itself?
well.. I am a newbie too but I have flashed my phone more than 100 times I guess, keep trying on XDA developers' custom ROM (because they are way better than SAMSUNG stock rom)
I think there is no such ROM as most stable or appropriate here, every ROM has its own feature(some might be laggy or buggy though) so the best way to find out which 1 most suit your needs is to test them out. You can read through the threads in Development forum, there are many ROMs there from XDA developers. See some review and comments to find the ROM best suits your needs, and follow exactly the installation guide then you should be able to flash your phone without worry
Im currently using [4.1.2] JellyBam ☄ v3.1.0 [AOKP.CM10.PARANOID] by Lolation, very smooth and kinda good battery life too
good luck flashing~ =)
