Don't know.
To root my Froyo P970, I had to use a tool called Blackjack. Nothing else I tried worked.
You can install the recovery img using adb from:
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager

First of all you need to 'find' fastboot again...
Clockwork 3.0.1.4
http://www.mediafire.com/?hcjs2a13t56g7ez
Update zip for SwiftDroid 1.5 (use "Install zip from SD Card" in recovery to apply)
http://www.mediafire.com/?45kc1hn8z73meza
If you need a file you should always check the link in my signature - most things are there
Thx man! But i don't use fastboot. For searching that 'm buzy for 2 months. Can i use YaffsExpert??
I guess it should work to flash clockwork at least...
Or use terminal on phone

if you want to flash just clockwork copry it to the root of your sdcard run terminal using these commands
su <enter> accept superuser permissions
flash_image recovery sdcard/recovery.img <enter>
reboot <enter>
hope this helps

Flashing Recovery

Hello, i just bought an LG Optimus 2x p-990, the first thing i did was updating to official ICS, but similar to my previous phone, i cant stand the stock rom and wanted to flash a custom one (havnt decided yet witch rom i want). After some trouble i finally rooted my phone, but now im stuck at trying to flash a new recovery. When i try flashing it through rom manager it says the device hast an official recovery yet, and when i try flashing this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098745) (note: i have usb debugging on and when i run it super user notifys that was given permision to shell) the cmd prompt opens for some seconds and closes again, and when i try to boot into recovery it goes to the stock recovery that wipes my phone.
Maybe this has been answered in here but believe me when i say i searched for the answer extensivly.
Hope i can get some help.
make it simple,install rom manager then install recovery..
I explained that i can not do it. ROM manager says the device is not listed and when i try to manually install the recovery it says permission denied.
Download and install nvflash driver(often called ATX) and install it. Then dl AIO all in one tool,from there you can install Cwm(can also be nvflashed) You can't use rom manager as it's not compatible with the new bootloader and partition table

Need help on rooting

I want to root my LG OP Black P970 running official stock ICS 4.0.4. Can anyone share me the steps by step process. As I know there is no specific button to load the bootloader in this model.
You can try unlock root.
To have CWM, you must flash a patched v20 using smart flash tool.
Please read N00bys guide.

Did you have Clockwork ROM Manager (CWM) installed from the Play Store or manually? I wonder if you had the most current version?

I downloaded the latest free version of Rom Manager from play
this is because actual recoveries are incompatible with ICS firmwares and will brick your device if you try to flash a recovery. you may try this mod to unlock the bootloader for getting a working recovery

If you are running 2.3.3, then you should be able to use the procedure at Revolutionary.io to gain S-Off and install CWM so you can then flash SuperSU or install a custom rooted ROM

S-Off means you have full access to your phone and can flash custom recoveries and ROMs.
If you don't understand something then I suggest you start searching and reading to gain knowledge and understanding instead of simply asking for links.

Then your phone already has S-Off so all you need to do is check to see if you have a custom recovery. If so, then you are all set to install a custom, rooted ROM.

all right so i have an s off and i dont see any cutom recoveries like (cwm or twrk ) and i cant seem to find any guides on how to install the cwm without a fastboot and an adb shell . is there a way to use odin to install cwm ?
i cant use adb i have tried it before for a few times and it never worked. ....

No you cannot use Odin on a HTC. In order to get adb to work, you need to have the HTC drivers installed which is probably your issue.
There is a way to flash a custom recovery from the Bootloader using a PGIMG32.zip file on the sd card so that is an option that you could search for.

So here you go if at all you have been thru basics -- see if this works (Of Course this is with the fastboot) if you want it this way on second thoughts...
Install HTC Sync, then uninstall it ( you would only want the drivers)
Download Super User - downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
Download Clockwork Recovery - download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
- On your C: drive, create an Android folder
- copy ClockWorkMod recovery and put it in C:/Android
- Put Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip at the root of your SD card
- Put the ADB (fastboot) files in C:/Android
- your files should be as
1 adb.exe
2 AdbWinApi.dll
3 fastboot.exe
Open cmd on your pc/laptop - bring it to C:/Android
You can now type just after the C:/android :
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
Now here it is -
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
Now install your supeuser - If its required (hope not in your case)
From the bootloader screen, highlight "recovery" and press the power button. The HTC screen comes up for a while, then you're on the ClockWorkMod Interface.
- Volume down to select "install zip from sdcard".
- "choose zip from sdcard"
- Select the SuperUser zip you put on your SD (Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip)
- Reboot your phone.
Check if the above suffice..

[Q] This package is for "p880"devices; this is a "x3"

Hello All,
I have some trouble updating my LG Optimus 4X HD. Also know as LG P880. With Android version 4.1.2 this now installed on the phone.
I now have got root access. I am using the adb.exe tool and cm-11-20140823-NIGHTLY-p880.zip but it keep say after the upload:
(Android system recovery <3e>)
this package is for "p880"devices; this is a "x3"
I have tried differend version of CM-11. with the same result. An factory reset does not help and using ROM Manager (Premium) does not update. When I choose Reboot and Install nothing happens.
Root Checker does say that I have root access.
All the info that I can find in the phone says that it is a P880.
Can someone help me on this?
With regards,
BryanH1

Hi,
Tnx for the response. How do I update the recovery?
I am using Rom Manager Premium 5.5.3.7. There at recovery setup I have used ClockworkMod Recovery and Team Win Recovery Project. With no effect updating using ADB.exe. And using Flash ClockworkMod TouchI am getting after the download An error occurred while flashing your recovery.
And using Rom Manager Premium to download the ROM I am getting Rom Download Error. It does not matter which download I choose.
Can you help me a bite more?
By the way which Root unlocker do you recommand using? I am using an chinese one because this is the only one that I found working.
With regards,
BryanH1
