Hi
My problem is "Waiting for device"
My LG is on version 2.2.2 and it says that there is no Upgrade available
I spent 3-4 hours trying to root my phone but failed. Do I need to root cell phone before I upgrade to version 2.3.4 or can I switch to version 2.3.4 and then Root Cell Phone
Every time I try to Root my phone i get error "Waiting for device"
My debbugin is on, and I turned of my firewall is there something else i need to do to get Rooting Right ?
Thx
You can safely update to 2.3.4 and then root using one of these guides:

That second link for update to 2.3.4 GingerBread works 100% on my LG Optimus 2x ?
EDIT : Can i get link for updating my LG from Froyo 2.2.2 to Gingerbread 2.3.4 , safetly
It should work, follow the guide to the letter and you should have rooted your phone.
Here's your link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327929
Wait
First link is for Rooting phone
Second is for update to Gingerbread
Third is for Rooting phone on Gingerbread ?
No, the first three are all for rooting
The fourth one is for updating manually to GingerBread
Ok .. soo first i Root my phone by one of that 3 links and then i update to Gingerbread (4th link) ?
The other way around
If you first root and then update, you might lose your root, so...
First update then root.
By the way: After you root, do you want a stock LG rom or a custom one...?
Explame me what that means xD
Haha ok
Stock LG rom is just the normal rom from LG you have right now but then a little improved (removed unnecessary software and apps). Normally the people who like the looks of the stock rom choose Stock-based roms.
Custom roms are roms completely different than LG. They look different and they have different apps/software. Most people out here prefer custom roms like CyanogenMod or MIUI. I prefer CyanogenMod too because it's in my opinion overall better than stock rom.
You can find these roms in the development section. The reason why I asked you this is because if you want to have a custom rom, you don't need to update to 2.3.4. You just can root 2.2 and flash one of these custom roms over it. This will automatically update your phone to GingerBread.

Hmm ... well i wanna normal . Stock LG rom
Then update, using kdz method (4th link) to GingerBread and root.
Edit: haven't you tried the OTA update? It should be out right now...

No I didn´t try OTA update . I bought LG 2 days ago soo kinda new here xD
Try one first,
go to settings ----> about phone ----> phone version (or something like that, not sure) and do the update from there. Trust me, this is much easier than the kdz method. If there is no OTA, then you should use the kdz method.

Well i did this metod to root my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953182
But how i can be sure that my phone is Rooted successfully ?
There are a lot of ways to check that. You can either look in your app list for an app called Superuser. If you have this app then you should have rooted successfully. But if you want to be 100% sure, download the root checker app and see for yourself .
Hey guys,
I just rooted my phone yesterday on stock 2.3.4 and got this annoying issue: Every time I shut down and restart my phone, some settings revert to default on their own. For instance, text input language becomes german (was the default language when I bought the phone), input text sounds are activated again, and so are mobile networks which I must disable quickly because they mean charges.
Could you please shed some light here? Thanks!

AFAIK, this is the only way... Because you have no OTA it seems that this is the only option. But I'm not sure about that.
My advice is to search, perhaps there is an easier way to do so.
EDIT: Download Rom Manager (app) and from there install ClockworkMod Recovery. With recovery you can flash a stock-based gingerbread rom on your phone! (how could I not think of that earlier ) make sure to do a nandroid backup in recovery mode.
EDIT 2: You might wanna try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1408919
Flash this in recovery mode.
Or you can just go directly to the latest KANG-54 build. Android 2.3.7, very stable and smooth as butter.

I know this is a very stupid question but I just want to make sure flashing with CWM is viable.
For the leaked stock ics 4.0 rom I know I should use odin to flash, but how about custom 4.0 rom like Romow? Should I use CWM to flash the zip file?
Thx~
ps: I am currently running rocketrom v19 with CWM
use CWM n flash zip

There are no instructions in romow's thread and that's why i am here to ask for any further instructions. I bet flashing a 4.0custom rom is similar to flashing Gingerbread rom. Am i right?
Also, some ppl claimed that I need to first flash the stock leaked 4.0 rom then have my phone rooted with CWM installed and finally flash custom 4.0 rom with CWM. Is that really necessary?

There are better roms now than ROMOW's one i think, try flashing Rocket Rom, or the new AOSP
From the instructions given in [02/24/12][Team Rocket ROM][open beta ICS v4.0.3][v1.5][15Tooglebar] daily ROM now! , it seems I really have to flash the leaked ics rom first before installing the rocketrom 4.0.3 rom, is that true? That means I cannot directly install the ics rocketrom from any gingerbread custom rom?

Did you flash 4.0.3 directly from gingerbread rom? BTW I've heard many people say their phones were stuck in the bootscreen(The samsung N7000 with no boot animation) when they tried to go back from ics to gingerbread. Seems this is a common problem....

If you can load the boot animation that means ur phone is not bricked. You should try to download a stock gingerbread rom from dr ketan's post and flash it by odin pc.

When going back to GB, i kinda 'restart' the whole process by going back to Stock ROM via Odin, and redo the root and CWM.
Else, there are strange quirky issue ex. CWM just hangs while wiping the phone.

If You have Root + CWM - then first find out original stock kernel (zImage file)
Now place this file in zImage folder, n repeat procedure(Initial CFRoot Flasher), which you have done at time of pushing CWM by selecting I am rooted already

Should be this one(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997).
Firstly, download one of the roms from [Older ROMs (Directly Rootable)].
Secondly, follow the [Installation Guide For Older ROM ], the one using odin pc.
You may see below another flashing method using mobile odin, but that doesn't suit you since that one requires your phone rooted before and will keep your root after flashing. The one with odin pc will wipe out all your data and apps(of course not your SD card) and also unroot your phone. That means your CWM and root will all be gone and you have to follow another post to root it again(now this one:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360)
this one(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997)teaches you how to flash a rootable gingerbread rom, but not rooted. This one(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360)shows you how to root your phone and install CWM. I think these two posts are the best tutorials you are looking for.
I think you should download this >>http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=907734&d=1329574136
This one is better organized.
Thanks mate! Saved it to my desktop...but finally i was able to manage the problem by simply flashing a *fresh* RocketRom again (?!). I thought it would be worth a try...
Anyway: Thank you very much for your support, it´s good to still meet that friendly kind of people with patience here on the board (it´s getting less these days) hope i´ll be able to return the favor in future
You are welcome! Please note your binary counter may increase if you flash a rooted rom like rocketrom you've mentioned above directly via odin.

As far as I remember I made my very first steps with odin after I reveived my note (root, cwm)...rocket has been flashed by using cwm. But yes, my binary counter increased definitely...
...I do have a USB Jig, but in some was I am kind of afraid of going trough this! To fumble around in pure darkness...hmmm i don´t know
Have you tried it yourself?
Actually I've got a yellow triangle together with increased binary counter as I followed another tutorial guide(I should follow dr ketan's guide before).
I think removing the counter with a jig is way too dangerous for me so I don't want to risk it. Simply remove the counter only when you really need to bring your phone to samsung because maybe you don't even have to claim the warranty at all.

Question: Does this method of rooting your Black leave the Phone untouched?
Cause my mobo died on me - and after the repair i got it back from maintenance with Stock V20N on it. I flashed then V20C, rooted it with SOC and put my Nadroid backup on it. I had then to install the LG Update (cheat with own little Webserver and edited LMHOST) to update to V20N / V20O. Now i am on V20O......
I have finally the phone and layout i like but miss root to Backup the current ROM.So after playing hours with it - and the upcoming CMW9 or Miui ROM around the corner - i need Clockword Mod. So question again short:

that method is for rooting GB right? but what about installing CWM?
Got my new OB and its on GB v20b..
That method is for flashing an already rooted version of v20.
Flash it (use the same version as you already have and make no wipes after)
then install superuser.zip and you ll have access to CWM.
That s all you gotta do.
Or flash v10a or similar with smartflash, root it, install cwm and then install any custom ROM you want. That s probably even easier.

okay.. now im confused where's the real thread or link for rooting GB v20b?
v20o root does not work
hi there,
first of all, I'm a noob in rooting and flashing, etc. I have a question regarding the mentioned v20o flashing (by SergovnikRZM):
I downloaded and installed all files, but in SmartFlashTool the start button is grey, I cannot start the process.
Also I cannot choose the Com Port and the LG Mobile USB serial port as the picture shows.
What should I do? Do you have any idea?
(I have a v20o Hungarian rom and the OS is xp sp3)
Thanks in advance and sorry if it's trivial but it is not mentioned in the steps..
How about enabling windows enabler? If your on Windows 7, you should run it as admin. you need to click on windows enabler, till it shows ON.
Ok, I will try, but this step was not mentioned...
(os is xp sp3)
when I tried the KDZ update I had to run windows enabler, and it was working well, and as I see this tool is also included to root, but this step is missing
Anyway, thanks your reply I will try it

i started rooting based on that video about 3 months ago, and now i am an addicted ROM flasher!
first and foremost, follow zedomax instruction on how to root without computer
ClockWorkMode (CWM) is necessary to be installed in order for you to install/flash ROMs and Kernels. Without CWM, you wont be able to install custom ROMs and Kernels directly from phone. you will be needing Computer.. which i would like to avoid as much as possible.
as for what is ROMs and Kernels.. the answer is here somewhere in XDA.
as for franco, it was advisable to install the kernel, as it helps on battery life and performance. i think there are latest version of franco Kernel anyways... you can search this forum as well...
if you follow the steps shown in the video, you don't have to be on GingerBread (GB).
and since you are already in ICS, then you can go directly to CM9, then proceed to CM10...

Hi,
I have since Fev. 2012, a optimus black, but since the beginning I have problems with him.
Before, I was unable to take pictures, because every pictures I took was corrupted.
Since I upgrade to V30b, this problem was solved, but now, sometimes the message: The SD card was removed apears, and I need to reboot the phone. I installed Beyondpod to ear pod casts and all the downloaded pod casts file, after 1 day were corrupted (files with names like:┬▬¶, before the photos were the same names).
This week the phone blinked non stop, I needed remove the batery, and all settings were reserted.
Now I think my battery drains so fast, I had reserted all settings to factory defaults and now the phone is working, bus Podcasts no.
I´m sick of this phone. I wants some custom rom to see if the phone improve.
Can anyone please can help me?
Please give me the information about witch Custom ROM is better. (fast, clean, battery, in all aspects)
Tanks a lot for the help.
Sorry my bad English

If it's a rooted v20 (GB) just install ROM Manager from play store and maybe first try a Marvel12b, 11 or even 10 ... where you get a touch 5 CWM recovery with it. Than you probably have the best base you can get to install any ROM.zip from.

yeah, this is a way, but cwm 6 have bug sdcard unmounted, use recovery.img 5.xx.xx on this case.

Now I am confused.
There is any tutorial to help me install the rom?
I am a newbie in this matters. I had a Galaxy tab 7 (p1000), and in that time I did install some roms, but time pass, and now I´m super confused.
I read several thing but, you gave me different solutions and I don´t now how to do.
I think the best rom (following your´s advise), is the MARVEL.
I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1554274
And I choose the last: Marvel v G based on Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 v 30d France - deodexed and zipalligned
Following the instructions of the link, I only need do this:
1. You will need a rooted Optimus Black and boot in CWM Recovery or use ROM Manager.
2. Copy the zip file in SDCard.
3. Install zip file.
This is correct?
I need to root the boot? How can I confirm is I have a rooted boot?
SaschaKH gave me this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160394
Can I use this instructions to root the boot?
For all operations I need the CWM.Can i install in play store? I found the ClockworkMod (ROM MANAGER) free version. Can I use this version?
Exist also the Rom Manager Premium, for what I need, the free version is OK or I need the pay version?
To finish: What is:
1- SFT?
2 - deodexed and zipalligned?
Thank a lot for all the help.

You didn't read it well. It says to root your phone and to boot to CWM. The thing with U-boot is to get rid of the locked bootloader wich gives you an LG Security Error if you install any alternative recovery.
You can follow the instructions given but I didn't try it myself.
What I found easier is to do as NOOBY wrote in his tutorial : flash a V20 patched rom (Gingerbread stock rom rooted and with CWM), like that you'll only have to do the wipes required in CWM and then flash Marvel Rom - which of course you put on your sdcard -.
SFT (= SmartFlashTool, for flashing a firmware easily)
Btw to use that tool you need of course our phone's drivers installed.

You are rigth.
My English is not the best, and I´ve some difficulty's,
I read all thing you gave me, and now I think I´m ready to brick my phone :laugh::laugh:, correction: to install a new ROM.
Thanks a lot for the great help.
I said I'd brick my phone and it seams i was right.
I install CMW and I choose "backup nandroid", the phone turned off and now appears the LG logo and the information Security Error.
How can I fix it?

I had selected the option "backup current rom"
And after, the program installed something, asked me permission to reboot, and appears the problem.
I install again with SFT a V30b rom.
I need to start again, but now I don't know what I did wrong.
Hum... If you installed CWM directly from a stock ICS rom, that's normal that you had that error. ^^

Yes it is what I did.
Is any other way to install CMW?
Even in the tutorial said: "Then you need to install CWM (Clock Work Mod), you can do this e.g. by downloading ROM Manager, install it, open it
and find Install Clockwork Mod Recovery. Hit it, wait some seconds and click LGE optimus Black. Wait again, till the file has been downloaded and installed and your all set Now you can reboot into Recovery, with the second option. It says, what it does: Reboot to recovery"
But I tried also reboot using the option "Reboot to recovery" and the phone reboot and reset with factory defaults.
How can I use other way?
Thanks
In the tutorial it says that for Gingerbread rom.
I don't remember if it is in Ilko or NOOBY's thread but you should use SFT to flash a patched Gingerbread rom. Since it is rooted and with CMW, it may be easier to you for flashing another rom from that.

Back on track.
I made it. I installed the Marvel G, but my problem still maintains (I use BeyondPod) and in the podcast folder appears a lot of corrupt files), I don´t see any change from stock ROM, but I think this is the objective of this ROM.
But now I am ready and prepared to install all ROMS I Want using the CMW, and install from zip file.
I will continue testing some ROMS.
Witch ROM do you recomend? I don´t need fancy style or other complicated thing, I just need what a stable, low consumption batery, and fast thing.
Once again thanks a lot for the help
