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 solved the problem with this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473781

True.. I always forget about it... but I think it might be too complicated for him anyway Dont know about his skills...

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(

I bet you did anything wrong, dont know what, but just go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487105 Read it all! Root your phone, install Zeus and be happy ever after

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...

[Q] Root LG Optimus P970h 2.3

I've tryed SuperOneClick, Esteem and Gingerbreak without any luck. None of those seem to gain access to root files.
I dont want flashed ROMs, I got official 2.3.4 (V20A firmware) update and just want to get root access to fix the button lights and some other stuff.
Please Help, Thank you!
(and Yes, I searched this forum without any luck)

If you have searched and not found, it is not prompting you to think that this is not possible?

It is possible, just that he doesn't know how to search properly.
Trolling in the deep

I do think it is possible, but this firmware has been recently released so there may be less people asking about this.

Search for cwm injection method. This should also work with p970h

I will try but I don't have a file with the official ROM. I just updated through the lg software.

You can also inject the official updater. You dont need r&d tool, just select the other process of lg updater tool. Then you get root with the same method. Or flash v10a with smartflash, root it with gingerbreak.apk and then install a custom rom. Thats probably the easiest way.

How to change font

hi guys !
Bit new to SGN world. Have stock android 2.3.6 Not rooted yet. I changed the font sometime back but forgot how. i want to change it again . Is it in the general settings ?

If you are going to root the phone you also could use an app like fontchanger. Don't have a working Note at the moment (bricked ) i also know there is a setting that changes the font and fontsize in some apps like mail, s calendar etc.

Go to setting--->display--->screen display--->font style.There are the pre-installed fonts or you can get fonts online.

Edit: Already posted above :|

Thanks for your answers guys, I must have searched a dozen times in there Vijai but never suspected screen display again !!
Is it ok if i ask another little Q ? Because of the recent reportings of bricks I just want to be doubly sure -

For rooting do i have to get this file - SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.zip

thanks for help guys

Why do you need those outdated roms???See this,download latest rom,use the instruction there to flash it.
Then download mobile odin and the respective cf-root kernel and flash the kernel using mobile odin.

Is it ok if I go for this file please ?
Rooted_Stock_Odex_N7000DDLB2.rar | 492.5 MB
It doesnt match my KL3

Dont worry when you flash that rom,your kernel is updated automatically.After flashing that rom flash CF-root LB2 kernel through mobile odin to get CWM

Why when I go to use fontchanger does it keep asking for superuser permissions?

Because the app needs root access.And the root access is gained by hacking the kernel.So the difference between the stock kernel and custom kernel is,Stock kernel has no root access since its not hacked and custom kernel is hacked.So the kernel included in the rom you downloaded is hacked which gives root access.

Thanks Vijai. I just went through both videos of cursedforeva.
Thanks for helping me get the bigger picture.
Actually I was relying on Dr Ketans guide from the Dev forum (sticky post). I even expressed my doubt there first....
thanks again

I think you have severely misunderstood the directions.
One does not simply flash a ICS ROM from any other version.
Why won't LG Flash tool work for you?

If it's asking for login, you have to do step 2 from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17177547&postcount=2
2.Extract "file.zip" and put "LGFlashTool.exe" to location where you installed "Setup_LGFlashTool_1.1.zip" (default: C:\LG\LGFlashTool\)
This replaces the orginal installed LGFlashTool with the special version from file.zip

Umm ...can you just upload the final file you used with cwm recovery?
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda app-developers app

It doesn't work like that. You CANNOT flash an ICS build from froyo or gingerbread. You MUST run the LG Flash tool following the steps provided in the other sections to the T. If you aren't very comfortable with doing this stuff yourself I would advise you to remain on Gingerbread. You will most likely end up with a bricked / worthless phone if something does go wrong and you don't know how to get it back. I the thrill development section you will find a very lengthy and discussed guide on upgrading. As I said though, this is at your own risk and there is no possible way for us to upload anything for you to flash. You connect your phone and flash ICS using the LG FLASH tool.

wait....i was able to install 10 different zip updates....such as prometheus, thriller, etc. is there a way to get the ICS rar file like that?

No. That's what I'm saying. You can flash gingerbread ROMs on gingerbread all day long, but you cannot flash an ICS ROM while you are on gingerbread. Especially this phone. The ICS build is ported from the Korean model of this phone and has different partition sizes than a gingerbread/froyo ROM would need for the thrill. LG Flash tool is the only way to get ICS on this phone. You must first flash XBSALL's ICS build with LG Flash tool on your PC. From there you can root and install recovery and flash other custom ICS ROMs, but not until you first flash on your PC using the guides in the Optimus 3D Development forum.
The only reason I'm taking the time to re-explain this to you is to prevent you from flashing an ICS ROM and possibly bricking your phone. Its pretty buggy still and not something a novice user should attempt. I spent at least 3 1/2 hours in a panic trying to fix my phone after flashing ICS over with LG Flash tool exactly as I was supposed to. It doesn't "just work", you may have to work for it.

[Q] Rooting I8190- XXAMA"3"

Hello Everyone,
I want to root my device (I8190XXAMA3), and I can't find any suitable root. It seems everyone just avoids this version, jumping from XXAMA1, 2 to XXAMB3 and to my sorryness XXAMA4. I have no Idea if any of the previous roots would work for me but I find that disturbing ,
Anywho, would some gentleman explain to me if these versions roots would work for me (and i precisely want to know if the I8190XXALK6 version would work, because I have already downloaded it :cyclops: ) or that i shoud install a prevous ROM version.
Another question please : Would the version that I will install have anything to do with the network operators that can be running one my device, or is it irrelevant ?? and would I be able to desimlock the phone when I root it or it still is necesssary to bother my wallet ??
Boy, that's a lot of talking !!
Thanks guys,
Greetings from a android-noob fella, and good luck everygeek.

seem like you have searched it at development section here is link for requested version flash it via odin 3,07 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2178346&highlight=xxamb3

THANKS,
I have already rooted with "I8190XXAMB3_I8190XXAMB2_Jelly_Bean_4.1.2_rooted" does that mean that I have "down-graded" the Rom ??

This is a stock rom rooted version if you want custom rom u need a root permission to install cwm by cwm u can install custom rom very ssmooth rom of benz v6 u can install it via cwm hoe to install cwm install rom manager can be installed by rom manager in google play
