Your help is appreciated but the way you are explaining isn't really good for new comers.. Or for anyone..
It's like you are writing notes on a fridge sticker you need to give proper details and step by step explanations. Also, very important, you need to proper format your thread.. Use bold, italic, underline.. quote.. you didn't even capitalize the proper words
There are already sticked threads with help. Sure they could be better but not like this.

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!!!

After installing Rooted ROM...
Try the Zeus 6.39 ROM...U will be surprised with the features..
Till now, it's the ultimate and the best ROM of Gingerbread
If you would like ICS (camera not working), try Free Optimus Project ROM

[Q] Help for bricked phone

Hi there, I'm aware this forum isn't for support so would like to know where would be the appropriate forum to direct my post!
Basically, I bricked my LG Optimus 4X HD (p880) phone after following the instructions to root my phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818502
Here's what I did:
Followed the instructions in the XDA LG Optimus 4X thread (from the link above) to root my phone
Installed Clockwork Recovery Mod
Tried to restart phone in recovery mode
Phone can't start anymore, and shows the following error message:
[LGE_SECURITY] ERROR: boot image signature
Critical failure: Unable to start kernel
Unrecoverable bottloader error (0x00000002)​
Grateful for any assistance. Thanks!

Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. The best place for your question would be the dedicated LG Optimus 4X HD q&a section, which is here:
Optimus 4X HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
That sub-forum can be found within the Optimus 4X HD device forum here:
LG Optimus 4X HD
I'd suggest you bookmark that page and subscribe to that forum, that way you can find it easily again in future. There's no need to create a new post in the q&a secrion now, we'll simply have this thread moved there for you, so standby, it won't take long.
Good luck!

Thanks! The link to the 3 apps is dead though. Any idea what are the 3 apps so I can download the 3 apps elsewhere? I've managed to download the KDZ file.

Hi, anyone can advise what are the files to download? The original link is dead and I'm unable to find out what software is required to resolve the issue.

Not yet. If somebody figures it out I can add it later.
Please reply back on main thread. I disabled Q&A separating.

Thanks Micro. Saw the build.prop tweaks for WiFi in the features and got excited.

Is there a proper way to install roms? Okay let me refrase that... I dont think ive flash twrp correctly because whenever i install a custom rom it doesnt boot. Ive wiped and full wipe before flashing and even tried flashing from internal sd to ext sd with no avail.
I flashed twrp through Flashify.
I'm so excited we have root now! Im so thankful for you guys that put your time and effort for us!
Thanks devs!
