Hello. I am trying to install CWM on my p970, but it says: permission dienied. And I know why. Because it's not rooted. I want to install Zeus ROM, but I can't, cause I don't have CWM. Maybe someone knows how to install custom ROM without root.

Yes, I have stock ROM 20A
NO ROOTING = NO ZEUS
if u are NOT rooted,then u cannot install CWM...downgrade 2 froyo, root it and then install the 20N Repackaged/Zeus v1, whichever u want
downgrading to the v10 would be temporary as u wud root it immediately and install back zues/20N....i do it almost regularly (yes, i brick my phone pretty often ).
for a backup,i have v10D and the CMD scripts for rooting (via blackjack) and installing CWM.
hope i helped
you have to downgrade to V10 (with SmartFlash Tool) then root that version and use Recovery to Flash with Zip File!!

That means that your previous ROM wasn't rooted? If it had been you could have flash the Topogigi ROM for example (20C) or the latest leak 20E, which are rooted..
Topogigi ROM 1.3
after backreading for a couple of days, i have seen a lot ways to root & install recovery on our OptimusBlack .. . mine is V20B im knowledgeable enough about modding phones.. last two are OptimusOne(frroyo) & X8(eclair) ~
this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456274
or this one using BlackJack Method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111771
now my question is which method do you think is much easier to get 100% SUCCESS on ROOT
someone here who get a successfull root access using BlackJack?
any feedbakcs?
IMHO, if you still om froyo, the first one should work best (SoC right?)

Question: Does this method of rooting your Black leave the Phone untouched?
Cause my mobo died on me - and after the repair i got it back from maintenance with Stock V20N on it. I flashed then V20C, rooted it with SOC and put my Nadroid backup on it. I had then to install the LG Update (cheat with own little Webserver and edited LMHOST) to update to V20N / V20O. Now i am on V20O......
I have finally the phone and layout i like but miss root to Backup the current ROM.So after playing hours with it - and the upcoming CMW9 or Miui ROM around the corner - i need Clockword Mod. So question again short:
How to root V20O without losing settings / data / apps?
Pls advice and sorry if i overread the solution in some of the threads - i read them nearly all....

that method is for rooting GB right? but what about installing CWM?
Got my new OB and its on GB v20b..
That method is for flashing an already rooted version of v20.
Flash it (use the same version as you already have and make no wipes after)
then install superuser.zip and you ll have access to CWM.
That s all you gotta do.
Or flash v10a or similar with smartflash, root it, install cwm and then install any custom ROM you want. That s probably even easier.

okay.. now im confused where's the real thread or link for rooting GB v20b?
v20o root does not work
hi there,
first of all, I'm a noob in rooting and flashing, etc. I have a question regarding the mentioned v20o flashing (by SergovnikRZM):
I downloaded and installed all files, but in SmartFlashTool the start button is grey, I cannot start the process.
Also I cannot choose the Com Port and the LG Mobile USB serial port as the picture shows.
What should I do? Do you have any idea?
(I have a v20o Hungarian rom and the OS is xp sp3)
Thanks in advance and sorry if it's trivial but it is not mentioned in the steps..
How about enabling windows enabler? If your on Windows 7, you should run it as admin. you need to click on windows enabler, till it shows ON.
Ok, I will try, but this step was not mentioned...
(os is xp sp3)
when I tried the KDZ update I had to run windows enabler, and it was working well, and as I see this tool is also included to root, but this step is missing
Anyway, thanks your reply I will try it

Try flashing cf-root 5.6, this is a safe stock kernel and will automatically root your phone.
Hi,
I have since Fev. 2012, a optimus black, but since the beginning I have problems with him.
Before, I was unable to take pictures, because every pictures I took was corrupted.
Since I upgrade to V30b, this problem was solved, but now, sometimes the message: The SD card was removed apears, and I need to reboot the phone. I installed Beyondpod to ear pod casts and all the downloaded pod casts file, after 1 day were corrupted (files with names like:┬▬¶, before the photos were the same names).
This week the phone blinked non stop, I needed remove the batery, and all settings were reserted.
Now I think my battery drains so fast, I had reserted all settings to factory defaults and now the phone is working, bus Podcasts no.
I´m sick of this phone. I wants some custom rom to see if the phone improve.
Can anyone please can help me?
Please give me the information about witch Custom ROM is better. (fast, clean, battery, in all aspects)
Tanks a lot for the help.
Sorry my bad English

is it rooted ? if yes, then you have lots of option in developer sction, the most stable rom i used recently are Marvel v11 and IZS both ICS based roms. both are great with battery and run pretty smooth.
you can try one of the Marve based stock V30F . i didn't try it yet.

If it's a rooted v20 (GB) just install ROM Manager from play store and maybe first try a Marvel12b, 11 or even 10 ... where you get a touch 5 CWM recovery with it. Than you probably have the best base you can get to install any ROM.zip from.

I heard there is one way to install a CWM on v30, but normaly you only brick your phone when you try to get a CWM on v30. Look for unlock U boot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160394
yeah, this is a way, but cwm 6 have bug sdcard unmounted, use recovery.img 5.xx.xx on this case.
IMHO, if you have SFT, it's safe to flash with Preinstallation for IZS ROM (SmartFlash): includes Smartflash and latest LG USB drivers =>
http://huexxxtuff.blogspot.com.es/2013/01/izs-rom-links.html
you should have, ics rooted and cwm on one shot. after you can make nandroid backup and test all custom rom you want.
original thread => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2115800
Case C: you already are on a new ICS rom without CWM
Quote:
- If you want, use OnlineNandroid to do a nandroid backup of your phone, I'm not responsible of your data losing
- Use Smartflash to completely flash (.bin and .fls) a V20 ROM patched with CWM with V30 baseband (you can
use my PRE_IZS_IMAGE available on my blog)

Once again let me thanks the help you gave me.
Now I am confused.
There is any tutorial to help me install the rom?
I am a newbie in this matters. I had a Galaxy tab 7 (p1000), and in that time I did install some roms, but time pass, and now I´m super confused.
I read several thing but, you gave me different solutions and I don´t now how to do.
I think the best rom (following your´s advise), is the MARVEL.
I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1554274
And I choose the last: Marvel v G based on Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 v 30d France - deodexed and zipalligned
Following the instructions of the link, I only need do this:
1. You will need a rooted Optimus Black and boot in CWM Recovery or use ROM Manager.
2. Copy the zip file in SDCard.
3. Install zip file.
This is correct?
I need to root the boot? How can I confirm is I have a rooted boot?
SaschaKH gave me this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160394
Can I use this instructions to root the boot?
For all operations I need the CWM.Can i install in play store? I found the ClockworkMod (ROM MANAGER) free version. Can I use this version?
Exist also the Rom Manager Premium, for what I need, the free version is OK or I need the pay version?
To finish: What is:
1- SFT?
2 - deodexed and zipalligned?
Thank a lot for all the help.
Sorry for this questions, I want to learn more about this world, and I´m starting. I count with you guys.
Thanks a lot.
Once again sorry for all my questions and my bad English. (I´m Learning English too)

You didn't read it well. It says to root your phone and to boot to CWM. The thing with U-boot is to get rid of the locked bootloader wich gives you an LG Security Error if you install any alternative recovery.
You can follow the instructions given but I didn't try it myself.
What I found easier is to do as NOOBY wrote in his tutorial : flash a V20 patched rom (Gingerbread stock rom rooted and with CWM), like that you'll only have to do the wipes required in CWM and then flash Marvel Rom - which of course you put on your sdcard -.
SFT (= SmartFlashTool, for flashing a firmware easily)
Btw to use that tool you need of course our phone's drivers installed.

Yes it is what I did.
Is any other way to install CMW?
Even in the tutorial said: "Then you need to install CWM (Clock Work Mod), you can do this e.g. by downloading ROM Manager, install it, open it
and find Install Clockwork Mod Recovery. Hit it, wait some seconds and click LGE optimus Black. Wait again, till the file has been downloaded and installed and your all set Now you can reboot into Recovery, with the second option. It says, what it does: Reboot to recovery"
But I tried also reboot using the option "Reboot to recovery" and the phone reboot and reset with factory defaults.
How can I use other way?
Thanks
In the tutorial it says that for Gingerbread rom.
I don't remember if it is in Ilko or NOOBY's thread but you should use SFT to flash a patched Gingerbread rom. Since it is rooted and with CMW, it may be easier to you for flashing another rom from that.

Back on track.
I made it. I installed the Marvel G, but my problem still maintains (I use BeyondPod) and in the podcast folder appears a lot of corrupt files), I don´t see any change from stock ROM, but I think this is the objective of this ROM.
But now I am ready and prepared to install all ROMS I Want using the CMW, and install from zip file.
I will continue testing some ROMS.
Witch ROM do you recomend? I don´t need fancy style or other complicated thing, I just need what a stable, low consumption batery, and fast thing.
