well after trying different cwm flashers and methods, and bricking my phone, finally found one method which works (until we get a proper one), its the same one which works for the lg Prada 3.0 ICS.
Original Link (do not download new versioin ,will result in bootloop. Use file below )http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859662
ps: I take no responsibility if any thing happens
EDIT: So after a bit of testing, things that dont work:
- cwm doesnt work for me only twrp
-if you erase you system for what ever reason, this is useless (hence why i put temp), so hopefully a dev can make something permanent

detail pls
such as can it flash zip or make backup?
adb?
well so far:
-done a backup
-install pimp my rom,
-mounted usb
and its all worked, so i would say its pretty safe, but i guess more people would have to try it out to be sure
ofutur dont try it , tried it already in my explorations and that was a brick
it works for me good find rezz :good: :good:

Maybe a stupid question, but if you did a backup of ICS can I install this backup through my Gingerbread CWM and upgrade quite easily. And maybe even go back to GB easily with a CWM backup?

You have to flash baseband for ICS.So i think that just backup would not be enough .

Caution:
When you are running ICS on you mobile do not downgrade directly to GB using ODIN, if you flash any GB ROM (Stock/Custom) using ODIN your mobile will be bricked.
Live example is myself i have bricked my mobile by do this.
TO avoid this first you restore previous backup using CWM and then flash what ever you want using ODIN.
Even Unbrick your Galaxy R. 2. Downgrade bootloader to v2.0 guide wont help you, I have followed it but no use I have successively flashed stock rom by using this method but still no luck ..
I've created this thread to help all our users who are running ICS, Sorry I've haven't see that one more thread is there for this if you think its duplicate please ask Justin to delete it..
Thanks! Have you managed to un-brick your machine?
Actually, flashing thru odin is Samsung things and it will increase the counter. So, almost every time, I will customize the ROM to flash thru normal CWM flash zip process. At least, I am just 'copying' files to /system/ and all operations are controlled by the updater-script

Yes Ardatdat. I do the same thing. For all the Stock ROMs which i flash via odin, i used to make CWM package. I used to do that so that always i dont have to depend on my PC. Not for the baseband, But atleast for the PDA and CSC part.

Thx for the info buddy. Like to know once thing. When u tried to downgrade to GB via odin, what was ur ICS system info. Is it rooted.? Deodexed? Rooted Kernel? Because I feel Kernel is the problem here. The Kernel that came with this ICS is not a safest one. Ardatdat can speak more about it.
Thanks mj...

Yes, I would love to, but without the kernel source, I could not do much things. At least, I would not get the kernel src before Samsung provide the official ICS update.

hi guys i was using my phone with cm7 rom and cm7 050 stable kernel i just wanted to change my kernel. I tried to install harsh kernel from the CWM ( i got cwm by rom manager) and i installled harsh kernel but it said SD CARD DAMAGED so i couldnt use camera etc. I got cwm by same method after that i installed my old cm7 050 stable kernel. But phone has not been starting since i installed my old cm7 050stable it always goes to cwm. I tried a lot of combinations (kernel+rom, rom+kernel,just rom, just kernel.) I started to use NVFlash since my phone always gets cwm. After all i did stock recovery.(NO ROOT after that step BECAUSE I DID STOCK RECOVERY) My phone was not going to cwm anymore it was going to somewhere i think back up screen and stock there. i again installed stock rom and kernel. My phone goes to cwm always.
what do i need to do.
thank you..:crying:

ok. i will let you know what happens.
After that if u need cwm just install rom manager from the market and flash cwm recovery from it.
I could tell u a more direct approach to all that but I m telling u the linear way so whenever u mess up the device and want quick solution u know u can flash this gb v21e rom.
After u r in control of rooting , cwm flashing, n nvflashing ... just search for anything u want in this g2x forum and play with it... as long as u r not frying the device using extreme overclocking ..( which I can tell u this device is capable of sustaining but NOT RECOMMENDED) u r safe

Your first line was terrible advice just saying^.^
To the OP, never use ROM Manager to flash CWM because your probably gonna end up with the same situation again where something goes wrong, always use Nvflash to flash CWM, its always much much safer and its recommended by pretty everyone in these forums, so if you wana go around hacking and stuff on your phone never use ROM Manager
Hope this helped

Lol actually u forgot the fact the Guy did use nvflash earlier and messed up the device .... its all about how u want the people to learn. As I mentioned ealier its not a direct method but Cwm through rom manager always works if u r reading it right. I.e when u don't have cwm flashed before and choosing the right model.... I didn't wanted him to accidently flash a imcompatible cwm or stock one as he did ealier only to get Bck where he started .... dun think everyone is a pro .... the guy needs learning space .... let him play with what he has. He will get into groove by himself .

The only thing rom manager is good for on the p999 is downloads roms. Don't use it for cwm please it doesn't work u need a computer and nvflash only way it works. If you are using rom manager it will eventually brick

Like most people said. Use NVFLASH to backup and to load/flash ROMs ONLY.
BTW I recommend you to use the Hellfire Phoenix ROM. It is based on the CM7.2 and it works without changing our Windmobile baseband.

Hello. I would Like to know which is the best ROM for O3D. with good battery life , working camera,3D support and less bugs it have its better. I tried NovAndroid It was really fast but The battery discharged in 2-4 hours. Then I tried the CM 7 but it was even worse then NovAndroid and then CM 10 nightly which had too much bugs. Right now Im using JB 4.1.0 but camera doesnt work and what is worst is that if your phone lags just a little bit it freezes and after some seconds the LG logo appear forever until you take the battery out

well said sir.
Cm10 was that bad cause you didn't install wkpark's bootloader v1.25. If you want 3d you have to use ICS e.g. Xbsall's v8.

If i install the bootloader will it work better? The worst problem was that when phone freezed even when trying to play youtube video and I needed to take out battery 4 times a day because of freezes. And If I install all the things which are needed with ROM which would be better xbsall's rom or cm10 / or ThiaiZO3D? I will not act like I know these things I am total noob at this . And Can I brick my phone by changing bootloader or baseband?

I have installed Cyanogenmod on Multiple Devices not once has it ever bricked a device infact you're more likely to brick your device flashing official updates xbsall has a a guide to recover from a brick so its not even an issue. please do some more reading ics has root . it has recovery just not a Custom one (CWM/TWRP)thats why wkparks Bootloader exists.
IF you Ain't Devi'N Don't a Start A thread in Dev Section.
@Mod Close thread or move it to General.
actually the root doesn't work because you can't get into recovery.

Is there any guide to set up dualboot? and can I brick my phone with it and does It make phone slow ? I heard about xbsalls rom but it is saying that I first need to install different kernel but I dont know how to do that because my recovery doesnt have that option. And Which 4.1 or 4.2 would you recommend? I already used jb. but camera doesnt work and It would be really pain if I want to take a quick picture and I would need to reboot my phone for different rom with working camera. And If I install kernel will it be set on both of the roms? or I can set different for both of them?. btw Thanks for reply

I alreaady tried CM both 7.2 and 10 both didnt bricked my phone and I had CWM recovery working with them...and root too...
CyanogenMod works fine - 100%. The reason it get bricked is BECAUSE whoever installed it didn't even pay attention.
And regarding the CWMR in CM10 - it works. I used ADB-flashable version of OMAP4 BIOS (wkpark V1.25a bootloader), and flashed CWMR at the same time as an option.
P.S. I used SuperSU as original Superuser wasn't properly installed in the nightly distro of CM10. Nevertheless, root works fine.
P.S.S. The reason I bricked my LG Thrill 4G was because I was trying too hard.

Before I start I would like to thank you in advance for dedicating your time to help me here (assuming that you did).I couldn't find the answers on the forums even though I searched.
1. Is there any way to backup my 2.2.1 froyo rom along with the kernel and baseband and EVERYTHING to make sure that if I take it back for repairs they can't accuse me of anything?
2. I have P500H and not the normal P500 mentioned in these forums, is there any risk of brick by flashing another rom designed for P500? And if it does work, will all of my cellular connectivity (RIL, calls, sms, 3G) keep working?

Having used Odin and kdz I can say that KDZ is *RISKY*
It is maybe equivalent to Odin by the reference to the work they both do
And yeah you can create a nandroid backup of froyo

I would not want anything risky (everything is risky, but I prefer to take it to a minimum level ) as this is not my phone. Do you recommend flashing custom recovery through rom manager?

ROM manager has resulted in 100s of bricks (maybe more)
Don't use ROM manager on LGp500
You can use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=acr.recovery.installation.utility
Download amonra 3.06 and extract the recovery.IMG
Then use the above app

Yes the app is compatible with froyo
But I had issues with clockworkmod recovery
Download amonra 3.06 recovery for LGP500
It is the most stable recovery for this phone according to me :thumbup:
Here is the file for your convenience

z4root didn't work either, progressed alittle bit, then crashed to the launcher and the app became inaccessible. Tried twice.
EDIT: Superoneclick worked, proceeding now to recovery installation.

I'm sorry to bump this after so long, I just didn't have the courage to flash the recovery (when I got stuck on the fastboot screen I thought that the device is going to the trash can), I have now CWM v5.0.2.0 but I get a message:
E:Bad boot message
"recovery"
Is it safe to proceed? what does this message mean?

That's a standard message which almost everyone gets on booting CWM recovery
Go forward and flash a ROM

Do you recommend the builds from Jenkins site? Are they stable enough to flash? http://jenkins.androidarmv6.org/job/android/393/ This for example?

I don't like *any* of the Jenkins builds as they are pathetically slow for me even on fresh installations
According to me you should either try Oxygen ICS or Rashed97's CM10
Remember the above ROMs are of my personal preference
And if you are inclined to use Jenkins build *try* them

Do remember trimming the ROM before flashing gapps and then thanking my post otherwise you may get possible bootloop
And flash the oldBB fix after flashing the ROM (search it)

Hello everyone
Before 2-3 weeks my beloved phone was fallen into my sink with water flowing
It works well, but the USB port now seems to work not good.. I've tried it on my PC and one another PC with different cables but it does not connect
So I wanted yesterday to make an update to 4.2.2 via Kies but as I mentioned it does not recognise it and odin too..
I thought to use mobile odin, but unfortunately, I went to stock (without root) before a few weeks..
So my question is, is it possible to root my phone without a PC?
Can I simply root it via stock recovery or would it brick then?

Can you charge your phone? Because my PC didn't detect my phone with some custom ROMs

Yes i can charge it, but when I disconnect the charger, the white 'lighting' in the battery bar is still there, I need to restart my phone to make it disappear
EDIT: I'm on stock

Hmm... I don't know what to do. I think there is no way to root without PC. Maybe the water disappears. Let's hope so.

I was searching for it, because this sec was too long for me
I found a way too root with an app, but its for exynos4 devices only and since the I9105P is broadcomm (not sure if I'm right) this method is not possible
Or did you mean another file ?

Oh I'm sorry. I meant that you can root without PC (usually people roots without PC), but you need to have CWM to root your device and to get it you need to have PC and flash it with Odin.
And BTW do you have Kies installed or do you have drivers for you phone on your PC?
EDIT: And those CWMs and Kernels doesn't work on S II Plus.

Just had to boot my PC
OK ...
Here is the text :
"paste"
Download xxx-signed.zip kernel matching your ROM
Put the previously downloaded xxx-signed.zip file on your external sd card
Boot into stock recovery (volume up+home+power)
Select "apply update from external storage".
Now select the xxx-signed.zip file you copied in previous step
You are rooted + new PhilZ-cwm6 kernel with CWM6
Can tell you it worked like a charm for me
What is your phone model?

Sorry I didn't know that, you are right. But I dont know does S II Plus have a rooting zip that can be installed using stock recovery.

Maybe right direction, but unfortunately not that what I'm searching for. It says ' Also, a recovery that uses "OpenRecoveryScript", such as TWRP, is recommended. You may try it on CWMR, but it may not be able to flash anything depending on the build.'
Since I have stock recovery, this method isn't possible
But before a few hours I find out that my stock recovery is useless too, cause of that open android which is lying, with an red triangle and black exclamation mark, which appears every time when I choose a option
I believe the only solution is to get my beloved to manufacturer for a repair hope I still have warranty although there's water damage
Or knows anyone more solutions?
