You can also try find KDZ for your firmware and try CWM injection method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1512203) just use google to find your kdz. didnt work for me though

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22597935&postcount=3
Follow this guide and you can flash it over and over again and it will always be ready to root

What does that have to do with the V20J version that the OP asked about?????
I am also trying to root the same version for my girlfriend since she got a job at Koodo mobile and got stuck with this phone which with stock software is garbage compared to her old HTC Desire.
I've been searching for a while and not found anything to do with this software version except this post where you arrogantly told the guy to search first.

I've the same phone and the only way I managed to root and keep stock rom was downloading the v20j kdz file and following the cwm inject method. You'll have to find the kdz file, its here somewhere though
Edit: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/
Make sure phone model is selected and hit ok

I've since given up. I cannot find a working source for the UPK file to perform the CWM injection method. Also half the tutorials and download sites are in another language or converted to English making them less clear because of the translation.
Its my girlfriend's phone and she has no backup she is allowed to use at work so I don't want to risk causing it to be down for any amount of time. She will have to put up with it and bite her tongue when customers ask if she likes it, lol.

Download the drivers and software in LG website. Install it in your PC.

And turn on usb debugging

check if platform modem is enabled in peripherals manager while phone is pluged

Try deleting drivers of lg and reboot pc and reinstall again and
If you have not installed the lg Driver in past it is must be installed

in some rome which is based on lg official version it will update but it will make your phone with lg official rom
in case you are using cm 7 or other which are not lg rom officialy as base it will not update.
but if update in case of custom rom based on lg official rom you will lose root etc.
you will have latest lg official rom

Another question are there a special dricer for OB with cm7
And hiw can i install the adb dricer?

Nope. There isn't. Its the same. Its stilk Android... and there is no need for an adb driver. You can root the easy way with THE BIG NOOB HOW TO! thread in OB General Category.

Yes, there is a lot of reading to do, if you want to study it all.
I dont think SuperOneClick is meant for ICS, I will recommend you to look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028946
And then I would suggest you try option 2 in "How to get root". You dont need to download ICS, you already have it.
Good luck.

I have a question.
how is this kdz method different from bin flash method.
can i use kdz method for installing fresh rom or is it only for upgrade scenarios.
bit little confused between KDZ and Smart flash methodologies. well i had already used and using smart flash to flash my stock roms.
how will this kzd tool different from the present.
thanks a lot for the help in advance

Kdz update just replaces bootloader, kernel, recovery and system, but keep you user data. Your installed apps and their settings will remain and all the data on you internal sdcard.
If you use smartflash the phone got fully formated and the, so you lose all the installed apps and data on your inernal sdcard.
You can convert kdz to smartflash with AIO toolkit by extracting the kdz. If the kdz is starts with v30 you can convert it.

i had downloaded AIO tool for the same reason to convert to kdz. but as the antivirus scans it, it detects a virus and file gets deleted automatically. for the same reason i could not able to use the AIO tool.
if you have a AIO tool free from virus , please share us, so that i can use it.
thanks for the previous reply. sure it helped me in understanding the difference between both

[Q] Rooting problem

I´m in need of big help, i was rooting my device with smart flash tool and it all went well until the phone rebots and appears the message "security error" under the LG logo. What do i do?
Please help, it´s an emergency.

You can see alot of questions here with that security error issue. Just download a kdz of a gb rom and extract it. Then flash with sft
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app

And will that make the phone usable again? Another question, why did that apear? My phone is locked to a company, and the ics rom that i was using was the original but for unlocked phones, it´s that the problem? Do i need to use the rom for the locked phones to be able to root it to ics?

It will. Aslong as you can go to s/w download. I dont get what you just said cause im no expert. i rooted my phone wth stock ics with unlockroot.com . but i have the ku5900.
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app

My phone it´s locked to a company,(like at&t, vodafone, etc etc), and i was using the stock rom from lg (v30b), but for my country that version is only avaliable for unlocked phones, and i was using it.

Then you did something wrong maybe. I had that security error when i tried to flash cwm with ics.
