[Q] Boot Recovery doubt - LG Optimus Black

Hi guys , i'm new here and noob to android, how can i enter the recovery mode ? something like a bios for pc , i want to install GB 2.3.4 v20n because i cant root it on 2.2.2 , i don't know why but gingerbreak apk wont work. Anyways i want gingerbread installed , i cant wait no more for that stupid branded update for gb (tried to update from the phone and it says i have the last version 2.2.2 it pisses me OFF X( ) . And i want it rooted for overclock because i'm disappointed by the performance of the phone(modern combat 3 and shadowgun lag ) i thought that the phone wont lag on games like this so that's why i'm trying to root and flash to gb of course. Please tell me how to do it ... i mean i will follow this steps but i dont really understand , cause i'm new to android as i said ... link to instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441901 . THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Wow this is the first time I hear the 2.2.1 firmware is official, because you say you have it on a new Galaxy..
Anyway, on my JPY I used superoneclick and it worked like magic.
Just search this forum for SuperOneClick, and follow the instructions in the author's thread.
I just downloaded program, put my phone in USB debug mode, connected phone, launched SUperOneClick, pressed Root button, and that was about it...

u use odin? try using hardcore's kernel K12A. Flash it with odin, and go into recovery. One of the option is to install superuser (root).

Yep. got my phone today from virgin and I can't root it either!
Just ran benchmark score @ 1232

I hope you got, that this was a thread in O3D Optimus 3D Forum... Anyway, if you want a stock Rom, just use R&D tool (use search) and read the first post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111771 and then read my reply http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22237122&postcount=449 and you will be able to flash v20x. Being noob doesnt mean u ll get a step by step guide, so do some reading pls. If you want a custom rom, also go to first thread, download the pack, use blackjack to root or search for root v10x where x is your version and then use CWM.exe (or similar) to install CWM or do it by RomManager! Then download a custrom from Dev Section and havbe fun
i dont understand , where can i find the r&d tool?
In the Package, I posted the link to above! Download the Package and you will find it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111771
ok i will download it in 5 min. What should i do with it ?
ok , so i downloaded open the r&d tool , but cant select anything why that?
im sorry for multi-posting but i tried and i gets the same , after i press the upgrade button , the lg mobile update support appears again X( X( it pisses me OFF it says the same thing , that i have the latest version (2.2.2) what should i do pls ? thanks in advance!

i tried that before i posted this thread.. the lg mobile support tells me that i have no connection to the internet , so i cant update X(

U CANNOT overclock V20n! You need Nova ROM to do this, and this is only 2.2... So better think about it again Root your phone now, and then install Zeus, it is v20n, but modified, to be faster...

I did that.. and it doesn't work. Says I'm on the latest firmware. But I'm on 2.2.2 I've been trying to update for over a week now with no success.
Have you changed the baseband?
No. How do I do that?
Come on stop blurring his mind...
If lg update tool doesn't upgrade you're phone, there must be a reason.. And baseband shouldn't be changed as it is one of the things lg tool looks at to search if upgrade is necessary.
But the best way to upgrade is to root your phone, instal clockwork mod recovery, then finally the ROM you want, even Ics 4.0.3 is available...
Just look and read threads in stickies to have info, and a guy recently made a thread in general section I think to explain how to do that.
The best deep way to learn is to search and experiment..

Since you rooted your phone, your warranty is now voided. Basically, you can find few roms in the development section. First thing you need to do is install ClockworkMod from the market. You can further more tutorials and details here http://FORUM.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487105

yes you need to reinstall your apps again. flash a rooted rom to be able to control your phone the way you want.
once your rom is rooted and flash a new rooted rom, then you don't have to worry on rooting again. Flash a stock rom then you have to find a way to root it.
All apps have to be reinstalled. installing CWM and TITANIUM BACKUP will make your life easier. You will learn as you go along...

Root is nothing but you are link a Super user and you have access to some OS files also.Without root you can't modify these files.
Here is the link for you.Hope you will read everything.Thanks for NOOBY for this.
