rooting with z4root - LG Optimus 2x

hi there, I hope I am i/t right forum.
I am using z4root to root my optimus 2x, however it doesn't seem to work, it stays in starting screen.
I tried permenent as well as temporary.
I know you have to switch on debugging, but the thing is, my phone does not have this option in the menu.
My LGP990 is on v10d.
Anybody?

Use SuperOneClick.

Your phone must have the debug option, it is mandatory. Go in Settings, Applications, Development and you're there. And use super one click.

I also have the same problem, I tried z4root with permenent root.
Problem is it stays in starting screen of z4root with circling.
Phone is LG e720 v10a, 2.2.1
Please help me, I want to root that one.
Thanks you.

Why don't you use UnlockRoot? Just one click of the mouse and you are done!

Superoneclick works with no problems. Better use usb back port on motherboard not front one on your case and dont forget usb drivers.

SuperOneClickv1.5.5-ShortFuse

I was able to root my Droid 1 with SuperOneClickv1.5.5-ShortFuse with not problems on the first try.
Version 2.2.1 Build FRG83D
I tried easyroot and z4root and neither worked on my phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Worked for me too. SuperOneClick then installed Rom Manager from market = good to go
by any chance you know why Superoneclick will not find my device? Ive tried the steps listed below the download page for superoneclick and it still doesnt work...
I'm an idiot, just figured out what I did wrong :/

I'll go ahead and post the solution I found when it was stuck at "waiting for device" when trying to root mine. I had not installed the drivers on my PC for my Motorola A855. As soon as I got the drivers installed, it rooted quickly and easily! I hope that helps someone else searching. There are a ton of "waiting for device" complaints in certain threads, and rarely is it recommended to make sure the drivers are installed!
superoneclickv1.5.5
Used today to root stock D1-running 2.2.1 FRG83D. Downloaded PdaNet then ran root. Took like three times turning debugging off and on but finally completed. Thanks
Yeah downloaded z4root then bought easyroot neither worked. Gonna try super one today and see what happens.

Did superoneclick yesterday on og droid worked flawlessly.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
what was the process you guys went through?
I installed the drivers for the phone
Turned USB Debugging OFF
Clicked Root
When it says: Waiting for Device, Turn USB Debugging ON
ran RATC
but then it just locks up and doesn't do anything. I went to turn off USB again and then it just loops.
Any ideas?
I just did it exactly how short fuse says to and it worked great. First time actually.

Working for me like a charm
Thanks a lot. Its working for me. My set is Samsung GT I5801 (Upgraded to froyo for GT I5800 and used Superoneclick).
Just an information for other users that I needed one manual restart after applying Superoneclick to get the root access.

[Q] SuperOneClick not working to root my Revo

Hi folks. I havr searched everywhere for my specific prob with no luck so please help.
I'm trying to root my Revolution LG LTE with SuperOneClick.
I've tried ver. 2.0 and 2.1
My phone is Andriod version 2.2.2
Model VS910 4G
Kernel version 2.6.32.9-perf
Using Verizon.
SuperOneClick lockes up when at ...waiting for device.
Have tried all available exploits (RATC not available) but was told to use that.
Tried SD card mounted and unmounted.
Tried internal memory mounted and unmounted.
Tried Debug node on and off.
Tried commect as mass storage, internet only....well, tried all connect modes.
S1C still locks up while waiting for device.
Anti virus is off on both the PC and the phone.
Could I please get some help rooting this thing? I'd really like to do so.
Thank you very much for your time and effort. I appreciate it very much.
If you are in zv4 then use super1click v. 1.7. It has ratc.

I'm pretty new to all this so I don't know what zv4 is.
EDIT: I got ver 1.7 but it still locks up in the same spot. Not sure what to do here.
Thank you.

After you downgrade to v4 firmware vs910v4 then use s1c 1.7 with ratc exploit. On ur phone make sure you are in internet connection mode when you plug in usb cable to your computer..

Go to Settings>About Phone>Software Version
If it says V4 at the end, then you can root. If it says V6 at the end, then you need to downgrade your software first before you can root. Instructions are posted in the LG Revolution thread.

You can also try to turn USB Debugging off then on again, while the program is
'"stuck." I think I had to run the ROOT process twice, you can try that as well.

Help with rooting 2.3.5

Help with rooting 2.3.5
Using megatron root I have followed several different threads to a tee. un-installed all drivers and restarting laptop .updated drivers to most recent tried several different drivers even p920, tried to fully reset the phone through stock 3e recovery full wiped everything. Still getting ADB not recognized as internal or external command. Tried two different downloads of Megatron root. Ive even tried Superoneclick several different versions. I think still the driver is the issue anyone have the drivers that they used? Thanks community for all help
BTW i have searched thoroughly to no avail.

Uninstall all LG drivers plug it into the comp and run the LG update tool and it will se you have no LG drivers. It will give you the option to do them clikk that now you have them. If this doesn't work then go to LG website and search for them there. That's where I got mine.

Well man only thing left i could say is to get a new wire. Just cuz it charges dont mean the wire ismt damaged. Other than that i think you might have a phone with an attitude!

Did you try to factory reset the phone and root it using megatron or superoneclick?
I had the same issue. Nothing i tried would root. I finally gave up, flashed the v21a kdz, and then gained root on first try. Something about the v20p wouldn't allow me to root. Have you tried flashing another baseband?
