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?

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.

Droidmodderx from YouTube will fix you up. It's really simple. Hope you find what you need there.

Why in development?
Did you turn on Usb Debugging in your phone settings?
I would generally have better luck recognizing my device when installing drivers on new computers with USB debugging disabled first, then re-enable it. Also with USB connected & drivers installed, go thru all the USB modes available cuz each have different drivers to be recognized (& depending on the root method you're using, the driver may not have been recognized yet, like adb services...)

Basically I've screwed over my phone.
It WILL boot. However I can't get it to go into USB mode.
I'm on Android 2.3.5 and I have this rom installed. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779290
When I try to flash from a backup, it fails flashing system and renders my phone a brick until I reinstall the above ROM
I've also tried going into download mode so I can use the official LG updater to flash it back completely stock. However I can't seem to get that working.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

First you are posting in the wrong section.
Second, what baseband do you have installed. I am running on a Froyo baseband and can't run thrillseeker due to the baseband requiring the GB baseband. You can probably return to stock by using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491870
From what I am reading, the LG Updater sometimes will fail but you just have to continue using it.
Good luck with your issue. I am planning to do the same to my nephews phone later today. If i can figure something out I will post back.
I think its V20P which is Gingerbread. I know when I last updated it I used the official updating tool and grabbed it from their server. But again I'm on Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread. Will those update.zip files work?

Yea it charges but that's it.
Luckily I have SwiFTP installed on my phone so I can still transfer things back and fourth between my phone and PC over my home network via FTP. Just much, MUCH slower.
EDIT: I just realized why this was in the wrong section. I TOTALLY thought I was posting in the general forum. Sorry. *derp*
Bump
First thing uninstall LG PC drivers then reboot PC and reinstall them. Or try to connect to a different PC to make sure it is not PC related. If that doesn't work then try wiping caches and instsall a different kernel. If that doesn't work I would then try full data wipe and reinstall rom of choice. You might try different rom as once its fixed you can always flash back...hope this helps you.

Well I believe I've figured out what the problem was.
You see the other day while I was charging the phone I accidentally knocked it off. The USB cable got caught on my alarm clock and caught the phone, so the phone was hanging by the USB cable.
Well today I looked at the connector on it and I noticed it was bent a little. So I bent it back up and heard a small *click*
I was afraid I had broke it completely inside. However when I plugged it in my computer recognized my phone and USB mode showed up.
I cannot for the life of me get my LG Thrill 4G rooted on ics. I tried the all in one tool, but it wont recognize the phone when i plugg it in with the battery out. please help me!
I also tried megatron and super one click
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202535
Read through that. Should fix you up. Its a driver installation thing. One of the last posts should fix you right up. I had the same problem. Megatron won't work. Have to use the all in one to flash bootloaders then recovery then superuser.

You know, that Kies actually needs to be installed (not running) because of the USB drivers? Or you could try these ones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038555
Are you sure Framaroot didn't work? It worked on my S running 2.3.6, notmsure why it wouldn't work for 2.3.3
As rasm said, Kies needs to be installed. Try install it then plug the phone in while its on. The drivers for connection SHOULD start installing...

Yes im sure framaroot didnt work cause i checked with root checker. and kies
has been installed afrw times now. its uninstalled currently cause someone mentioned try uninstall it but keep its drivers
Hey soryuu
would you be able to post up how you did your framaroot incase i screwed up
along the way??
many thank
s guys
Uhm, well I don't own my S anymore, but I always used Framaroot 1.5.1 and I used the... Aragorn exploit (I think)
