Help me root - Optimus One, P500 Android Development

LG Optimus T (p509)
Android version 2.2
I'm trying to root my device. After installing "ES File" I am able to access the Z4root.apk
I enable debug mode, and start the Z4 program. I select permanent root. The program is stuck, it never completes rooting my phone and stays on the blue screen showing that it is busy.
What should I do?

Thank you, I'll try that out. So the z4 program didn't work for your phone either?

Instead of being condescending and outright rude, you could be helpful and direct me to the right areas in solving my problem (or completely ignore this thread in the first place). Obviously I am new to this game and it would be nice if you can encourage noobs instead of getting mad at the internet. After all everyone has to start somewhere.
I never did anything to you directly but I apologize for hurting your feelings.

Its fine man. Chill. Z4root works in froyo and is the easiest way to root. If it didn't work then clear the phone data and try again.

With no disrespect you really don't understand xda at all. Xda is has not only basic rules but also guidelines on where to post.
For example question and answers go in q/a and new roms go in development and theme packs go in theme section
The development thread ain't a tech support thread
Development or for developers.
Look if this thread has anything new, or created by you then please let me know
Just post all questions in Q/A section
For rooting I would recommend gingerbreak instead of z4root
Gingerbreak is more reliable

This is about posting eight place . Devs use the development thread to post new roms tweaks or other stuff
And every non development post hides something actually legit and pushes it to the second page

You should search the forum - and for that matter, post in the right sections. This is Android Themes, does 'Rooting the Galaxy 5801" belong here? No, it doesn't. It belongs in the Galaxy Android Developement thread.

What does being new to android have anything to posting in the right section? Are you also new to the existence of life as well? You posted a question about how to root in the THEME section. Sounds like you're braindead to me, can't even search either. You should go now and post oh I don't know, a question in another language other than english.. in the english forums! Go go go!

This is a development community. Try not to fly off the rails when someone asks about PSFreedom. In it's base form it's not a piracy application. No more so than rooting an Android device is. Sure it can be used for nefarious purposes, but why assume everyone on a developers forum who's interested in PSFreedom is a pirate?

It is actually a good question regarding a new PSFreedom, an updated one for the new Kernel?
Maybe even as for the PsfMod, directly from the Recovery?

Well if i understood your question correct, you need rooted phone.
Easyest way to manage roms and update zips is clockword mod. Search Clockwork rom manger in market and install. Copy your update zip to sdcard, lreboot to recovery via rom manager, make nandroid backup then install zip and test. You can revert all changes.
Is your psfmod for 2.2?
Guys!! Two weeks I've been trying to create my own psfMod for HTC Legend, with the Klutsh's Howto ... And I am still nowhere!! TWO WEEKS!! lol!
Did any of you create a working img file succesfully?
I received some help from Klutsh and some other guys on his blog, unfortunately I am such a noob that I can't manage to do it right yet...
Any chance to get some help from here?
... You all are my last hope... My life depends on it.. (Hmm... Ok, I might be exagerating)

I plan on working on this. I've been holding off for Cyanogen to release stable for the Legend, so I have an easy starting off point for a guide - and I'll be doing less flashing/messing with nightlies.
I've still go an old TouchPro I'm using just for psf at the moment.
So the sooner we see CM6 stable, the sooner I'll get cracking on this.
hope someone will do that .
It saddens me that the world is turning into pikey freetards that think stealing is OK. Things will catch up with them, it always does.

and leave it at that, I suggest you do the same.
What's going on with this? Where's the hold up? What has already been done?
BlaY0, actually, it was done, yes...
However ,there were not updates of it.
No possibility to use last payloads and other possibilities.
As per Klutsh's psfMod, it is possible to get the PSFreedom directly from the recovery, and then you can use the bin you want (put in your SD Card) : you just have to reboot then and can use your phone as usual.
So far, we lost Wifi and SD card access, we had to restore boot etc... Quite "restrictive" (compared to what is developed for Desire, Hero, and many other devices...)
No, I mean what has been done in terms of compiling module for new kernel?
Ho sorry! lol!
Then I am not sure I understand your question: What have I done so far that is not working, or in general? (English not native language, plus noob regarding kernels, compile, linux, development, ... Everything lol! Well you understand, right?)
Actually I'm referring my question to the subject (psfreedom+new kernel). I know that it is working with old kernel so it is working from recovery mode too. But I need to know what has been done concerning new kernel. Where's the problem? I'm asking coz I don't want to reinvent the wheel.
Ok! Then I unfortunately cannot answer you.
What I can do, is quoting Klutsh from his blog (before he put the Howto off his blog)
@bravounet: You may be better waiting for HTC to release the 2.6.32 kernel source, or look for a AOSP kernel (Cyanogen type)
@bravounet: You can use the .32 kernel in recovery, leaving your ROM & kernel alone.
With old kernel (2.6.29) we had to flash a zip from the recovery in order to make it work, there was no menu "PSFreedom" in the recovery itself, contrarily to other devices as I mentioned previously.
So far, I don't think someone has done anything new with the old kernel, neither with the new kernel 2.6.32 for our Legends... I might be wrong, but I haven't found anything on the internet...

better instructions please?

was wondering if mods are anyone who post roms.. can also post step by step instructions on how to install the rom, including software/programs needed to flash it. Its hard to search around the forum to download things..But if you post everyting in one thread, it would prolly avoid a lot of noob questions..

This user has already been directed to that link, and complained it was too long.
To the OP, the directions are clear cut and work. Slapshot did a fantastic job compiling all the steps.
Complaining that they are too long and creating another post to complain some more will get you no where and you're probably better off not rooting your phone until you can understand the instructions.
This was my first root, and although HTC phones are supposed to be harder to root, I accomplished it without a hitch thanks to the instructions so please be patient and take the time to read through all the posts.
If the Superguide is too hard for you, this whole thing isent for you

Honestly, if you're really gonna be this much of a baby about it, switch to a more popular phone, and head over to FreeYourAndroid.com. They have 24/7, and very easy to follow tutorials. Before you even go check for our phone, no its not on there. Hence why I said go grab a more popular phone.
As to how we lay out information here, its because its not for noobs to come and start diving into the world of android modding just like that. There is too much information, too many different (yet individually important) ways to do things, and too many different ROMs and the like coming way too fast to have it all posted in one place. General is for general knowledge things and any questions that don't involve a specific thread. Its a great place for noobs to hangout, learn the ropes, and find basic information. The Android Development forum is there for just that, Android development. So this is where all the ROMs, Mods, Root tricks, and the like go. That is an impossible amount of information to condense into one thread. Not to mention its not fair to the devs who deserve the credit for their hard work. On top of this, ROMs require different ways to be flashed properly. They have different directions, different issues, different fixes. It would be insanely stupid to consolidate information any more then we already have.
So if your gonna whine, then as I stated in the General Knowledge thread:
Don't flash ROMs, unlock your bootloader, ect.:
If you don't know what your doing, don't do it. If you don't want to take the chance, don't do it. If youre just going to whine, don't do it. Its the simplest solution to not making a mistake and staying stable.

XDA isn't for babies, and its not for noobs to start doing things straight out of nowhere. Don't get me wrong though, most of us have no issues showing you noobs the ropes. Although, if youre not going to even try and just gonna sit here whine wanting to be babied we won't care the least bit about you. So in conclusion -
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Mods pleaseclose this bs thread.

No it is not rude at all. Slapshot30 wrote a guide that was created into a sticky which explains how to root, put cwm recovery, flash a rom, etc. If you can't follow simple instructions (searching before posting) then this isn't for you.

People are very willing to help and most on here do but it's frustrating when someone wants something easier when he has already been directed to the post he needs in another thread before starting this one. The guide that Slapshot created is great and very easy to follow. If that guide is too difficult for you, you shouldn't be doing this stuff to your phone.

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!!!

It's actually an easier way to find answers then creating a new thread, since you don't have to wait for reactions and usually the follow up questions are already elaborately discussed..
On topic: I believe some superusers have an option to unroot? And otherwise just reflashing stock is just as easy.

Alright then i renamed the thread. Because my question is about walkaround reflashing and unlocking bootloader.
Is it possible simply to root and unroot without reflashing and unlocking ?
When you root phone your root file is on system partition and you need to format it If you want to remove root.Hard reset don't format partition so that won't work.Update software should work but I am not sure.SuperS have ability to remove itself so if you root your phone with it you can done it fastest way.Also don't be smartass and mock people who are telling you to search for answer before posting topic and asking for help.It I is not polite.After all you are asking for help from us not the way around.

on topic: So i am on latest 4.1.2 if i force the support tool (from LG) will it reflash the phone with stock frimware after root ?
As i remember i read somewhere that actually it is possible to use some kind of "upgrade recovery" option with this tool which reflash phone.
off topic: Im not playing it smartass i've searched and couldn't find what i need to know. then i posted this thread.
So maybe someone should check if a thread exist actually without beign too lazy. before saying that he's sick of people.
And also renamed my thread to be more suitable to people who will be searching.

simon its too late mate... i renamed my thread alredy and i think you did not read that its about walkaound flashing and unlocking.
@tuncay93 in LG update tool should be option "force update" or something like that.BTW I think easiest method is just to flesh.dz file since it will format system partition for sure and you need only drivers that you must install even if you want to update regularly your software.Download SuperSu it should replace your current root app and then from SuperSu choose "remove SuperSu" .That is all I can think off.

Really? Simon is a long time member and he know what he's talking about. He might sound a bit mean sometimes but he's right!
I for myself created like one thread asking a question and the other things I sorted out myself with brief searching, reading and trying.
This question here has been answered already.
You're asking how to unroot without flashing back the stock ROM or unlocking bootloader.
It has been answered in this thread as well and a search (not just on XDA but on Google as well) would've get you to the same answers.
Simon can't tell you where to post and where not but he does as he is trying to get newer or ignorant XDA members to follow the rules.
And one of those rules is to search.
Not just a five minute look but a brief search even in related threads etc.
You won't learn anything by just asking and asking again but by trying and figuring out yourself.
So please do us a favor and stop posting unnecessary questions.

I think this has gone way too far.
I know you're in hospital as far as I remember but maybe you can clean this thread if you get time to do so.
Thanks

1.By the first few words you said i suspect that you define the pople by their registration date at XDA.
2. I didn't found answer to my question thats why i made thread. [Ans. It is actually possible SuperSu will remove root [not sure what kind of remove but still....[ Flashing with support tool is the way but is still flashing]
3. I am not ignorant and new at XDA. I am new to 4x HD section. Also without reading and asking you can't learn anything. Thats the point of the forum.
4. And i think it was necessary question. Since i've searched and couldn't find what i needed to know.
Finding related threads about "How to root", "How to unroot" all say just unlock reflash and relock. Why ? I've just find out today that i can simply run support tool and all will be fine. (Also mine is 446-92 FW I'm not sure if relockable yet.)
Also that standing behind someone just because he says few words that he has read at "Rules" In wrong place....
And just because its old member it's not cool mate im sorry but thats what i think.
Now if moderators think this is unnecesery thread can remove it.

@tuncay93 in LG update tool should be option "force update" or something like that.BTW I think easiest method is just to flesh.dz file since it will format system partition for sure and you need only drivers that you must install even if you want to update regularly your software.Download SuperSu it should replace your current root app and then from SuperSu choose "remove SuperSu" .That is all I can think off.

Ye thats what i find out today theres walkaround for flashing and unlocking bootloader.
In lg support tool click options then upgrade recovery and you are good to go for warranty or whatever you need it for.

Let's get behind this rules etc thing but if you'd read more about root function and flashing a stock firmware you would've know that root is installed in system and that a simple reflash unroots your system.
That's what I mean with reading and understanding the way your modified android device works.
I don't know if it's just me but I did know nearly everything about root before even bothering to root my device just in case if something goes wrong I exactly know what to do.
The answers are out there. Most questions can be solved by searching but many users don't do it or they don't have enough knowledge of Android to understand the given output of their searches.
And no I don't define people by their registration date but by the way they post on XDA.
And I'm not supporting Simon because he has said a few words about rules. I'm supporting him because he's been a long time member and follows the rules.
And sorry but if somebody is criticizing your thread in a forum like XDA and you're responding with "STFU" shows me that you're ignorant and lacking respect.
The fact that Simon is doing this is to keep people from posting 10 threads about the same question (like they tend to do) but search and know what they are doing.
The problem with the community is that most new users just follow tutorials but don't know what to do if something goes wrong (and believe me there always will be something that goes wrong) and then they create threads like "help I bricked my 4X HD".
Like I said if you'd know what rooting actually does inside your device you'd know what to do with information you get when you search for unroot.
Let's assume you are a new user and you now install SuperSU and somehow it messes something up.
What will you do? Do you know enough to mess with an android device? I really don't want you to take it personal but that's the way you should think about it.
And I have one question: Why do you want to unroot your device without reflashing stock firmware and think that unlocking boot loader would be necessary to unroot?
(and just one hint: it's not "walkaround" but workaround what you mean I guess)

Okey I know what Root is. I have been rooting and unlocking all my phones i've used to switch roms. (I know that reflashing is the solution)
But the problem is as i said my 4x HD isn't EUR-XXX it's 446-92 (Asian one i suspect)
So unlocking is possible but couldn't really find info about relocking.
And i was in need of workaround as you said (My english is not good) Because my power button its not responsive and the phone still has warranty and that button its going to brick it keeps going more and more unresponsive.
So i didn't wanted to unlock and reflash because i may void my warranty in that case i still need it.

You don't need to unlock anything in order to reflash the stock firmware with LG Support Tool.
That's what I was talking about. You don't know this because you didn't read enough about this device.
And about your warranty: if you'd search in that topic you may acknowledge that rooting doesn't void your warranty in most places as long as the failure (in your case the power button) isn't related to the slight software modification.

Ye but i know here in my country all warranty providers are just looking for something that may void it and just root will void it i am sure.
But never thought support tool works after rooting or modification on software. i did not even think about searching for that you are right now.
