Please have your question moved to the question forum.
This is the guide I used for getting started.

As for cm9 or cm10.. Not running that great on this phone. Cm7 is your best bet and even then it's gonna have some annoying bugs. It is still better than stock though!

Okay, so I have the LG Optimus T and I have it soft rooted with z4root. The problem is this: There are no custom ROM's for the LG Optimus T. I can't overclock my CPU (which is a major draw to rooting) with the kernel I have installed. Can someone please help me? I am very new to this, and I'm open to criticism, but I'd appreciate it if you'd answer with helpful criticism. Talk to me as if I'm a beginner, not an idiot. Thanks in advance, guys.
I also rooted my optimus t recently woohooo!
Anyone? Is there a mod for it?:d
Well here is a useful link to JoeMomRom which he striped down.

The rom is called bareoptimus. I was having trouble with link so if its broke let me know and I will try to find another.
Once you root you are going to want to flash custom recovery too, just incase anything at anytime go's wrong. Hope this helps!!!!
here is a link to a custom ROM i love it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920787
I wouldnt of used Z4root, from what I read it wasnt really meant for 2.2, I used Gingerbreak 1.20 and everything is fine...Im currently using devoid froyo final with superblue v5 theme and it's running smoothly, I tried using the darktheme but it didnt work for me, I started years ago with rooting and my very first android phone was the tmobile g1, that's back when there werent programs for rooting you had to learn how to root using TE or ADB, im still in the process of learning everything I can myself and would love to learn how to cook my own roms

hi all i have samsung captivate i897 from at&t but i am living in india i have stock android 2.2 firmware can anyone give me step by step guide to install cm on my phone my phone build is something like UCKJ1
whats wrong with the instructions that Cyanogenmod thread gives?
i am unable to understand those explanation i dont know if cyanogenmod is for froyo or gingerbread i am also not familiar with heimdall i often use odin so if anybody can give me instruction it will be very helpfull to me as i have said that i am in india so i dont want to brick my device
if it is your first rom DONT flash CM.READ and KNOW what you are doing before doing something BIG...
moving to cm will change your partitioning table. if you dont know what that means you shouldnt do it yet.
READ. LEARN. SEARCH READ MORE!!!
CM isnt 'for' froyo or gingerbread.
it REPLACES froyo or gingerbread (it doesnt matter what you are on now)
Learn, flash something NOT cm7 or miui. then learn more then flash CM
there are many how to flash guides. I know i wrote the newest one. it is stickied.
read the new user guide in my sig. learn what stickies are, then find the stickies and read them.
Go to mobiletechvideos.com or watch josh youtube videos on flashing cm keep watching read and get a usb download jig before you do anything it will save you if you [email protected]# up

The Cyanogenmod wiki has a full install guide. If I was on the computer I would link it for you, but it shouldn't be hard to find

like just said above the miui has an install guide on their website. if you cant follow those instructions dont flash.
Go to captivate Developement section > Find Miui thread > Click the link to go to thier site;s install instructions. DONE.
why would we RE-Write the guide just for you?
Hi I have just bought the LG and was wondering if there is a preferred rooting process and if my phone running software v10d would work? I have moved from a desire hd which used a one click root script on Linux which is what I prefer to use.
Also are there many good roms for this phone?
Thanks
Rom choice is personal preference depends on what you like i suggest you root your phone with SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse. And try all the roms..
Personally i have tried every rom here lol when i say every even down to the cm7 and at the moment Thaiz's is a clear winner plus he put up the system ui and stuff so you can make your very own personal theme from UOT kitchen....
But like i said rom depends on you good luck and welcome to Optimus 3D Forums where waiting is the game lol....
Oh and P.S i am not gonna say anything but next time please post questions in general normally you will be flamed but i will start it of with a positive post ...
Thanks a lot for the info. If I knew how to move this thread over to general, then I would! The main thing Is that I am able to root with the software version I'm running. Don't want to brick the phone

hi, i've just finished rooting. still running 2.2.2 software v10d and have installed rom manager and also flashed CWM and want to try out Thaiz's rom next. can i just copy the zip over to my sdcard then install from CWM or do i need to install a few other things first, like a different radio?
cheers
Yes, you need a different radio. Update to V21a, root, install CWM and have fun.

I have a galaxy note 2 (SPRINT)
My details are
SPH-L900 GALAXY NOTE 2 (SPRINT)
Android version 4.3.1
cyanogenmod version 10.2-20131214 snapshot
kernal version 3.0.64-CMg9d16c8a
I am simply trying to learn where to go from here. I tried getting a new rom from room manager premium but it always says download error. I was trying to get 10.2 rc2 stable. But none of the other work either. I think I might need a new kernal but am lost on which one is right for me. Any help is appreciated. So basically I'll take the Eli5
Approach and go from there. How to get the right roms for me, kernels etc.? Thanks guys
Hi!
Easy, here's the forum section for your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-sprint
Now you need to go through the development section, and original development section. Read about the ROMs and kernels in the opening posts. See what appeals to you...and flash away!
Do a nandroid backup in recovery first...in case you need to restore.
And read the flashing instructions very carefully.
Good luck!! ?
So I'm not allowed to post replies in development forum (makes sense considering I'm a new account.)
I have a T-mobile D801 and was just wondering if it's worth it for me to go through the trouble of rooting and flashing my G2.
I want something closer to stock and want to get off 5.0.2, so this would help immensely.
I don't have much experience with flashing, or CM, but I do hear that CM is notorious for breaking the GPS and Camera when flashed to devices. Is this the case with the G2?
