OK, based on the previous topic on rooting V30A, here is the updated package for those people who want to just root V30B, while keeping the stock bootloader and recovery. It's an image of /system directory (taken from the new V30B) which includes su and superuser.apk.

(filesize: 286,931,373 bytes, MD5: c787ef960b18e222b23327eaa34db0f5)
Just connect your phone in NVflash mode, and run the batch file. Successfully tested by me. Enjoy! I take no credit for the method; I am just providing an updated system.img.
As noted above, this rooting method does NOT install unlocked bootloader or CWM! If you want unlocked BL and CWM, the P990 AIO Tool is the easiest way to do it (it also does many other things -- if you haven't tried it, give it a go, it's wonderful!).

Nope, sorry. This is only root without messing with the bootloader and recovery, nothing more.

This is for rooting V30B, so you need to flash this ROM first.
Flashed SmartFlash' able ICS V30B (FLS+BIN) from this post thanks to trocopassu
and then NVFlashed this V30B root....
ROOTING WORKED FLAWLSSLY, NO DATA LOST. Amazing Rooting Tool. Works 100%.
Thanks a lot @kt-Froggy True surprises and happy moments on this Merry Christmas.
My FULLY POSITIVE review on UNROOTED V30B is here and also here
5 stars to both rom and root. :good:
EDIT: Seems CWM not included. Try Install ROM Manager from GooglePlay and CWM from it.
EDIT2: Seems RomManager is not recognizing device so cannot CWM.

The same goes for V30a on Homero's Opti-ICS, I had to download Rom Manager but it not recognizing devie so can't CWM either. Any ideas why?
Rom Manager V 5.5.1.3 but when I reboot into recovery says CWM-Based Recovery v6.0.1.5
Recovery v6.0.2.5 from "pengus77" or Recovery v5.0.2.8e from "spyrosk" are OK!...

I am just trying to unroot the ROM provided by tantrums, but I think I need help, cause I dont know, which symlinks I need to remove, and if I maybe forgot any file, that could show them, that it's rooted.
I ll upload the ROM and maybe Redy or Gabz or another Pro can have a look at it

You definitly made a mistake somewhere. Try the v20s bin/fls files from my noob how to, since they also work for me. Did you wipe everything when you were in recovery + flash superuser.zip? Unroot ROM is ready, but you need CWM to flash it and will lose all kind of root access.
Need help!
My phone return to stock everytime I try to boot it into recovery Any thoughts?

Seems like it automatically starts install some rom images.
Try to delete all the rom image or backups (backup your SD first) that you have in your sd.
But first of all try to use QuickBoot app instead the RomManager app.
It's free and you find it in Play store.

..first check if you have the stock recovery yet like Xonar says..
..second, try to download again the recovery from RomManager's menu (don't know if ics OB is supported) and retry..
If nothing happens..maybe it's better if you flash the stock V20x with the CWM already injected and then install the flashable V30B that you can easily find in the developement section.

You’re welcome
You don’t have to search for stock recovery(probably you never find it )..I think Xonar want to know if you had already installed the Clockworkmod or not..because some time ago there where some problems to inject the CWM in the stock V30B rom.
(if you installed the V30B rom with smartflashtool you surely do not have the recovery and you must pass throught the V20x)
I wish had posted the link of the resources you need but I can’t ‘cause I am a new user too
If wrong something I hope that Xonar can correct me..

No，it's for locked BL so recovery and root/su are integrated, which can be provided by a custom kernel.

Internal storage size doesn't matter in this case I think, but 10.1.C.0.370 is for WiFi model and LTE model's firmwares use a different build, like 10.1.E.0.265.
It is not recommended to flash a different zip...
If you are already up to date and only want root, reboot fix or recovery, try @DooMLoRD's new root tool and the fix mentioned in the #1.

Hi Fisherman, your links are down, could you please check it? or maybe create a mirror on another server?
By the way, is this a FTF file? or flasheable ZIP? i guess is a FTF because i read on DoomLord thread that in order to flash recovery you need to have the bootloader unlocked.
Thank you.

d-h.st seems down now...
Cannot upload at the moment, if d-h.st does not recovers tomorrow I will upload to another mirror.
And this is a CWM flashable zip as stated in the title.
Also installing recovery does not necessarily require unlocked BL/Custom Kernel, it can be installed on a rooted rom. Find a version works in that way~

Oh nice. I guess he stated that before because the system rw reboot issue, so the best way to achieve that was using fastboot. Thank you man!
I don't understand some points in the installation instructions.
1) Why must the 370 FTF / update be flashed first? When anyway after that 344 must be flashed???
2) When the bootloader is unlocked, I can install / run CWM directly and flash this ROM here directly, or can't I??

Well in the instructions he said:
1. the .370 without flashing system.sin and userdata.sin, that means, only stuff not related to the system partition and well, you can keep your data because userdata.sin is not selected.
2. the .344 only system.sin because this is the one with most opportunities to root using bin4ry tool.
3. then in the files he provides, you will have the 370 system with all the fixes but that one is a CWM flash file, so you will need to install the recovery and then flash this file. See the attachment he posted here.
If your bootloader is unlocked you can use fastboot to flash the recovery. Also you can skip flashing those FTF files, and just flash the CWM file. But i believe that someone confirmed that you won't need this because if your bootloader is unlocked you can install root and remount /system without any issues.

Since you have already updated firmware, no need to install this if the new rootkits work, try them.
Find DooMLoRD's above.
Translated Japanese toolkit from 2ch in attachment.
If they don't apply to our Tablet Z, you will have to flash 344 FTF (system only) then do the rest.

You can not flash a CWM zip without recovery, and it need root to install one, and no root for 370 now
So it's necessary to download a 344 FTF, flash the system part only, and use the old working toolkit to root it.
It may be very likely to fail on different devices because the rootkit uses a kernel exploit, the address for which to run just usually varies from kernel to kernel.
Wait for our great devs to figure out the working address will be the most painless.
Or do the operations in the OP, and of course install a custom kernel after unlocking BL if you don't mind doing so, is way faster atm.
Here's an older rootkit also from 2ch. Try it if interested.

You can download official CWM recovery. Search here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager for LG Optimus 4X HD.
Then you can install with terminal, fastboot or sth else - I don't remeber well.
Then the fun starts. (On XDA look for ROMs and kernels)
And read the instructions carefully.

It can be done without unlocked bootloader, but then you will be unable to install custom ROMs. So if you're on stock JB, unlock bootloader if you want (warrany will be woid).

First you need to unlock your bootloader after that you can Install CWM or TWRP.
After doing all this you can Instal CM or any other ROM.
If you try to install the CWM or TWRP without unlocking the bootloader you will get the boot signature error and you won't be able to boot into recovery (please correct me if I am wrong.)
Don't Forget to make nondorid backup before you try installing any ROM in case you know what I mean
and next time post it in Q & A thread please..
Have fun mate.
yes you will get an boot image signature if you install cwm or twrp with locked bootloader
the only way to flash a custom rom on an locked bootloader is to adjust the rom to the stock kernel and device and the flash it via a bootstrap( like dexter did it)
but nobody is going to do it if you have tje possibility to unlock your BL seems that you have to stay at stock rom if you don't have the know how how to do it

That is not their ram. That is the score their memory received from the test app.
Sent from the Millennium Falcon somewhere on the Kessel Run
That makes sense ahah thanks

It's not a trick, but it is pointless for a high end device as all it will do is increase lag and kill the SD Card due to the high amount of writes.
Well... I was using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818502 and it works.
Then used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1826378
to install the latest CM10.1 nightly file, then failed(some problem with the zip file?), the usb mounting wont work. Then when I reboot recovery I gone back into normal recovery. And I cant install anything nor mount my USB to the default recovery.
Now I'm stuck. Some help please?

You really haven't given much informaton to go on. Basics with any help request;-
What are you trying to achieve?
What version are you running?
What ROM were you on before?
Rooted?
Bootloader locked or unlocked?
What recovery have you installed?
EXACT error message - this is the single most important detail!!
There are plenty of guides around if you are trying to get from 'Stock' to CM10.1;-
Upgrade to 'Stock' JB first
Root
Unlock bootloader
Install CWM (v6.0.3.1)
Install CM from zip
Install gApps from zip
.....
Profit

My bad.
I want to install Cm10.1
running on stock rooted v10e
Rooted yes.
My device is SEA, not sure if I unlocked bootloader...(might be the problem)
The recovery i stated on my question.
I now can only hope lg support tool can help me out.
Because I might forgot bootloader and my device is already wiped out clean(so i cant even return to stock because the whole device is empty).
edit:
Figured out how to enter download mode... haha
Will keep Continue my effort!
I've gone through hell Unlocking Sensation XE, 4X wont beat me!

Highlighted in red for a very good reason. You'll need to reflash your stock v10e first, yet again there are guides on how to do this. Once you have the phone back up and running on v10e then read carefully and make sure you understand all the steps before trying again
