Go to #3 follow that step by step exactly ... make sure its exact ... if you do it right your phone should be running... if you have trouble pm the dark lestat and hell be able to assist you ... but download the v20p.kdz file go to that URL and follow it from step 3

I once had that error..
you need to make sure all drivers are installed.
when i got that error, a new hardware prompt came up and asked me to install drivers, a couple different usb/cdma and an omap prompt if i do recall.
you should be able to find the drivers in the guide to install the kdz
or check the lg site
hope this helps!
whatch the video from xda when u sign up... u just got answered with something is already answered... you just gotta look U.U
To be honest i'm not super skilled with all the updating and stuff, but when I updated my phone I did a live chat with one of LG's reps, stepped me right through it. It was surprisingly helpful considering how disappointing their support of the phone has been so far. But the devs on here have been awesome too, I've found all my answers just searching through the forums like the guys before me said

There are different methods, some more simple, what version you have?
if you mean andriod version... I have 2.2.2
Look for UPK 3.6 and from there you can root with Blackjack.
After the root process you won`t lose anything but the warranty.
Okay, will do. Thanks heaps!
rooting your phone is dangerous but once you have done it, you will get a chance to try different roms. In short, Its fun!!!

Does anyone know if this root guide for Optimus 4x hd, posted by several people at youtube, is fake or not?
Link to the root guide:
crackmyass.com/2012/06/lg-4x-hd-root-tutorial.html
Thanks in advance
link not working... 404..
just insert www infront of link
can some-one download that script, and attach here? i can't download from http://fileurl.me
I call BS on this, the file download site only lets you dowload if you complete a competition (where the entries cost £5 each), or you buy a premium credit.
Also notice how the three comments sound very similar and are posted within 5 mins of the article. Google isnt that fast at indexing.
I think it is someone out to make a quick buck on people looking for root on this device.

I've got in touch with Dan Rosenburg who has rooted other LG phones and he is interested in helping but needs to talk to someone who has the handset, unfortunately I'm still waiting on the delivery of mine at the moment.
PM me if you want his email.

It's definitely a scam,there was a tutorial on the tube a week ago which also pointed to this location and wanted you to participate in a so called "survey" before letting you download anything.
BEWARE!!
Well it got me creating a new e-mail address for spam mails, completing one of the surveys, only to end up looking like a jackass. Completing the survey didn't bring forth any download link.
Before starting the survey I studied the source code of the site, including some .JS files, and couldn't find any sign of code to generate the download link, so I guess I was warned.
As far as i know, there is not a root exploid for our LG P880
The only way to get a reliable root function on our device is to develop it here.
I tried several existing methods to do it but with no luck.
I think we need to extract the full rom implement the root function and upload it back to the device or...
Try to develop a update.xxx with or without CWM and use this to root or...
Maybe we can use NVFLASH to reach our goal...
The word is to our LG experts here on the board who already rooted a LG, and give us a direction to go to...
Hopefully we get a breakthrough soon because i realy need to kill some autostarts here...
I'm counting on xda dev right now, hope someone can root this device soon. ^^
What about plain root privilege escalation bugs? I'm thinking of Mempodipper, which is younger than the 2.6.39.4 kernel on the O4X. I would try it myself, but I don't have a toolchain for the android platform, and didn't want to buy the C4Droid App for nothing. ^^

Hello,
I managed to bootloop my 4XHD (yay!), and I'm just trying to restore it to the stock firmware. The phone was rooted of course, I don't have CWM though if that makes any difference. Anyway I'm following this "super in-depth guide" on how to flash it, and it says I'll need a KDZ file that I want to flash. I have no clue where to get one though, so any help here would be appreciated. Also if you've got any tips on what I should be careful of when flashing, please let me know.
Cheers,
Hathz
You have no clue cause probably you didn't read all the thread...

Mhm, well I would kind of assume the information is stated in the tutorial (hence it's called a tutorial). Anyway, I got a KDZ from lg-phone-firmware and it looks like it sucessfully flashed V10A Euro Open (not quite sure when to know cause the dumb program doesn't say anything , but I assume it's done since It's basically turned on and I'm in the android basic setup screen).
Anyway there really should be some information in big red bold text in that topic for dump people like me, saying like "HERE U CAN HAZ FIRMWARE".
Will post again after I confirm that flash is sucessful and the phone is ready to be (ab)used again!
The phone seems to be working fine, I've already updated to V10F.
Anyway as I said, perhaps a huge link to the lg-phone-firmware would be a nice thing to have on that topic

Once that you're using the Euro_open, probably is better to upgrade to V10G.
I didn't saw any difference but, some persons said they noted some improvement...
It's up to you, now you know how to do it
And you're partly right about the tutorial.
Its a litle messed, starting with the phone name, etc... but, the OP should edit that, to someone else post another one, even if better, is a "little" against the forum rules (double posting).
Maybe one day some moderator do something about that
