Hey guys,my friend has got a Incredible S and its in Android 2.3.3. Its from Singapore and I'm trying to help him get S-off and root on it! Can someone point me in the right direction? The steps as easy as possible I'm still new to htc devices!
There is already a comprehensive guide for doing just this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137008
There are other tutorials too if you take the time to search around a bit. In future if you could please look around for what you need before starting a new thread that would be great, as lots of other people have already asked this question

Hi Guys,
Well switched over from the iPhone world to my HTC Vivid. As far as the iPhone goes I know pretty much everything there is to know. Now on my HTC I'm a little lost I've been reading through he forums for a couple days now and visited the HTC Dev site to Unlock Bootloader still can't figure it out a bit confused. If some would be nice enough to explain to a n00b with a Android I would appreciate it!

Welcome! First watch this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEWa_lUd2bY&feature=youtu.be
It will tell you everything you need to know. It doesn't matter what rom you are flashing same instructions will apply that are in the video.
Second, you need to pick a rom to flash. There are several on the forums or you can also go here:

You have to sign up to see the vivid forums. Anyway, if you have anymore questions just ask and we will help!

Then follow cyanogenmod's compiling method to get their rom
Ps- i wanna buy the phone, how's it? Pm me and keep this thread for custom rom discussion
Also if possible then upload it on dc++ and torrent so people with special plans for fast downloading on these software(like me and 1k others) can participate in development
Press thanks :good: if I've helped :highfive:

Hey the source code for lg l90 is here:www . lg.com /global/support/opensource/opensourceList?types=ALL&search=L90
So is SB working in a recovery?
Sent from my GT-I8730 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
ye the phone is nice but the standard rom is ok but i can be much better!
Using L90 ...!! Its smooth and fast.. !! Battery backup sometimes is too good and sometimes is ultra bad..!!!
Guess not properly calibrated???
Sometimes battery drains 30-40% over night..!!!
Is there any LG L90 thread ? I cannot find any, if can you link me to it??
any developer plz

The problem is, no developer has taken up this device at the time of writing. Though I don't know if this device will get as popular as the previous L9 among developers, fact is that because of availability problems most of the people who happened to have purchased this device are stuck with Metro PCS version
Nobody on a Metro PCS L90/L70 which is a USA version, has been able to root it, yet. So either this, or it could be that most developers haven't bought it (international version) yet, to begin developing.
Though the good news is that the international version is rooted and you can try after going through this post,
[GUIDE][ROOT] Root your LG L40/L70/L90/G2 mini!
The other thread where some discussion is happening is this,
[REF] LG Optimus L90 Ultimate Thread
I know this doesn't answer the question so here is another problem with even the international version. Currently, there is no way to enter recovery. Without recovery pretty, much nothing can be done
Besides, there is no dedicated thread for our L90. If you still haven't done it yet, then go ahead and post a request for device thread here,
*** New Device Forum Requests ***
I know it is a bit disappointing that even devices like Xperia M2 and Galaxy Grand 2 started appearing with a dedicated thread much earlier WITHOUT any development so to speak of while our L90, which is quite a good device, wasn't considered good enough
So here's to hoping that some good devs start buying this device and instead of considering the difficulty as a negative, take it up as a challenge to turn this device into something even better than what it is now
Okay people, acche din ane wale hain :fingers-crossed:
The good news is, that the MetroPCS version has finally been rooted so now we'll have developers working on it for creating an eco-system for other kinds of development to happen.
So, get ready for ROMs to come up :good:
Custom Recovery!!!
If someone can get me the file of the stock recovery on the phone i can port Clockwork Mod Recovery to this device.

Thank you so much. I'm going to check that link out. I really appreciate it, man.
Thats only the euro lg v40 which has LG's support for bootloader unlock. You can use this guide dont know it will work because its new. https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v40/development/unlock-lg-v40-via-9008-root-t-mobile-t4042207
I have the LM-V405 through sprint.. Any suggestions?
First, crossflash to the US version. For the reasons why, look at this thread. Follow this thread's directions for the crossflash. Use the No Root directions, as you'll root your device in a later section. Note that once you crossflash, you CANNOT go back to a Sprint KDZ because Sprint does not make their KDZs publically available.
Second, unlock the bootloader via the link that @KouaV1 provided.
Third, once your bootloader is unlocked, install TWRP following the guide here.
Fourth, install Magisk via TWRP.
Be patient. Nobody gets it all right their first go around. The device is picky. As long as you have 9008 mode and LGUP, you can always go back to the beginning and start over.

Not to be negative, but, there is not a way to root the t-mo version and it's pretty well known there never will be one.
There's one thing about LG phones that new people learn, sometimes the hard way, that is the t-mo version is **different** then all the other versions. It's mentioned in all the threads re rooting, cross flashing, etc etc etc.
They say something like; "Works for all versions, except T-Mobile!!"
sorry to tell you, but that's pretty much an unmodifiable phone.

So why not look in the 'guides' forum and follow the guide that's already been used by so many? You can read the comments to know what issues others have run into, pretty much everything is in there.
Put some effort into it, if you get stuck, ask questions in that forum / guide.
