I guess people got tired of stupid/noob questions being asked. Especially when they're being asked in the dev section. He probably would have gotten a normal answer if he only posted in the correct section.

First don't be to hard on new users/posters , there is a time in life we all are newbies.
Correct that this should be posted in Q&A but you could just ask a mod to move it.
Now about the question;
I recieved my official ICS update or you flash a kdz V30A file on your phone. (how? look in the dev section)
Then I installed the unlocked bootloader (with nvflash), then I installed custom cwm 5.028e(with nvflash). Now I made a full nandroid backup.
Now I got a full system dump where I can start and build in root and init.d support and........
Then I made a cwm flashable zip.............
The rest is up to you.

[Q] Rooting Optimus Black V20T

Can anyone tell me how to root a P970 V20T? I have searched the forums and can't find a guide for anything beyond the V20S. Either a step by step guide, or a link to a post that is already in place would be great. I have tried following some of the guides for the earlier versions without success.
If it helps the phone was bought network free for use in the UK.

Look into my noob how to. You have to patch the bin/fls files. Assuming you have a kdz file, first extract it, patch with cwm, flash via smartflashtool, in recovery flash superuser.zip, reboot, done

Nice reply - not - and I asked as I am not psychic. Your Gingerbread (v20x) link goes to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480392
You then have a list of instructions which end with 'Dont exactly kno, what it does, but as far as I get it, it roots the device and installs CWM touch. Credits go to poster, if it is successful. '
I would hardly describe this as 'your work', you hadn't even bothered to verify it before stealing it without having the courtesy of naming the original poster, so perhaps you should also take care about who you label lazy.
Another point is that there are 2 options on the list, namely the link above and the following link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456274
The first points to v20x and the second points to v20* which to me would essentially be the same thing, hence asking which I should follow. That is being sensible - shame someone who happily takes credit for other peoples work is so shallow as to be unaware of how poorly they have laid out the links they have ripped off.

Thus is just the first post, before the OT edited it. Thats why credits go to him. I dont see whats wrong about it, since he posted it in russian and at least my skills in russian are... lets say not so good.

Hey if you feel like writting your own how to... just go ahead. I just tried to be nice to newcomers like you and put together mist of the necessary information in one place. If you think, you can write a better, nicer, more complete one, I surely wont be the one person, that stoos you from doing so. I know how many hours I ve spent on writting it. If you dont like what you see... try to turn your head in another direction maybe.

LOL. Not everyone here is a developer. You're posting here and you clearly aren't.
As for respecting others, perhaps you should follow your own advice, rather than stating that people here should feel some sort of embarrassment because they haven't provided you with the level of support that you clearly think you're entitled to.
