[Q] How to officially update P999DWP phone?

I tried updating my phone trought the LG update tool and keeps saying that my phone has the latest software. I don't why LG would release an update and not make it so it will fit all the G2X's. Doens't make sense!!!
Is there a way around it? I don't really want to root my phone.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.

Short answer....not yet.
The update that came isn't the official update from t-mobile, when they release their update via ota and their website all g2x phones will be able to get it.

Android 2.3.4 root?

I am trying to find a working Rooting method for Android 2.3.4 on LG phones.
I have tried out some of the popular rooting methods including gingerbreak but they do not seem to work. Anyone has had success with rooting Android 2.3.4 phones? My searches have not been successful in finding any good results, so I am asking here. Thank you in advance.

You have the wrong idea. Rooting a device is not brought in general - like saying once a phone has a certain android version, then all android phones with that software version can be rooted (This is the idea you have which is wrong). Different devices may take different methods to be rooted. Like, Gingerbreak may work on the nexus s, but may not work on some other device running Gingerbread. And to answer your question, yes. Many people have rooted android devices running 2.3.4 (and just for your information - ALL android versions so far can be rooted).

I have a MyTouch 4g, running 2.3.4. You wouldnt happen to know any ways to root it, would you? Thanks man

you can try http://revolutionary.io/ select myTouch 4G Slide it may work on ur phone but as always no guaranties do it on your own risk, some more links:

Well usually different phones have different methods to root the,just google it with the exact name of your device and you will get how to do it....!

What about 2.3.4 on a Kyocera Echo?

Um, unless I missed a memo, then your phone has already been rooted because the MT4G has not been updated to 2.3.4 via OTA officially. You may be running a custom stock ROM that reads as 2.3.4 though because some people just want the stock look without all the bloatware (Telenav, TMO TV, etc). So, download Root Checker from the Market and see if it tells you that you have root. If not, then you shouldn't be running 2.3.4 yet.
Also, go here for everything you need to know about rooting and installing custom ROMs on the MT4G: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=796

The maker of the phone isn't terribly important. The model of the phone is - such as Optimus or G2x.
In the upper right corner of this site there's a box for "find your device..." type in your phone model and it'll take you to the forum for that particular phone and you'll be able to learn all you need for that model. Best of luck to you!

Can't seem to be able to root. Android noobie. Please help?

Good day folks! Recently bought an unlocked, rogers branded, LG Optimus 3D for 200 bucks. Love the phone so far, powerful, great hardware and totally attached to the android ecosystem already. It's the LG-P25G. Runs Android 2.3.5, runs software version V20c.
I'm looking to root the device. I want to run some custom roms I'm seeing throughout these forums. But I just can't seem to get it working. I've tried multiple versions of superoneclick, and multiple installs of the LG Drivers but just isn't doing any good for me. Everytime it seems to complete step 5, but as soon as step 6 starts, it stops responding. Anyone have any idea what could be wrong? any tips on getting it to work? Any help is appreciated.

SuperOneClick only works with v21A. The other roms have to be rooted with Megatron (use the search to find about it).

Well that would do it... Running now. Thanks a million!

LG D838 Marshallow update

Hello everyone,
I am wondering if there is any confirmed source, the way, to update my Lg g pro 2 to the 6.0 marshmallow ? I found many sites with "working, no bugs" versions but Im little bit worry about to use it in my phone. My device is not rooted, it is not branded, just clean lg soft version 32gb.
Can anybody show me proper checked source to update my phone ? Is it possible without flashing ? If I have to flash it then no problem I just need a tip, step by step what to do, where do I have to click, what kind of tools do I have to use etc.
I'm kinda new fish in this pool so, try to help me instead of laughing at me, Thank you.

Those are spam sites.if update comes xda will be the first to know and hoping custom 6.0 will be out
