Hi,
I tried to root my LG Optimus 4x HD (p880) running Android 4.1.2 JB today. Unfortunately, it all came down to this:
adb sideload superuser.zip
error: closed

Click to collapse
I tried using both of these guides:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230934
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2180688
I also tried to do adb usb before doing adb sideload with no success. I also tried to kill and restart the adb daemon many times. Then I tried with different adb versions and on Linux too, no success. USB Debugging had to be enabled for the device to get recognized at all by adb.
Can anyone help me? Or can anyone please tell me how to get more debug output?
Cheers,
Niels
I had the same problem on my Galaxy R and have read it to be wrong on other devices as well. I finally ended up using TWRP which had this working. Your situation is different though. Did you try to run it with administrative privileges/root access?

Yep, always the same error message.
Okay, nevermind, apperently I'm too stupid to read, when it said, I sould power on while holding the volume down key.
Sorry, folks!
Always use "adb devices" before to check your device are online

Have you entered recovery and chose "apply update with adb"? If you have maybe its a driver issue

Have you read the first post in the TWRP thread? Did you follow the instructions? Have you tried flashing the update? Did it fail? Was there an error message? Have you installed the latest HTC Sync Manager? Are you running Windows? What version? Are you plugged into USB3 port? Do you have a recent version of fastboot? Are we supposed to guess everything?

I apologize for my post, I've been at this for four days and i'm about ready to toss the phone in the bin.
If you mean the thread about HTC dumlock, yes i tried that and i think i did it right following the instructions, But it didn't work.
And i believe i followed the instructions right and tried flashing the update but it also didn't work.
I have installed the latest HTC Sync Manager , I'm also running Windows 8 but i'm working on a Windows 7 laptop because my Win 8 laptop when i install fastboot and adb and put the phone into bootloader the HTC isn't recognized no matter what i try.I also don't know whether it's a usb 2 or 3 port. I'm looking for the latest version of fastboot now........And the HTC Sync Manager so i can use my Win 8 computer.
Also on Win.7 comp. when i try to put in a cmd eg (adb devices= list of devices.it doesn't list anything) so i assume my htc isn't there.
Put the phone in fastboot mode, you need to run the command on your pc:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-<version>.img
Saying "it didn't work" is not useful. Was there an error message?
Use the Win7 laptop.

so with "sudo fastboot devices" works but just "fastboot devices" doesn't? strange, cause both work for me.
so i guess you'll have to start the fastboot commands with "sudo fastboot ......."

Navigate to the platform-tools folder and open a command window there. Also, if that doesn't work, in the fastboot thread I linked, is a method to install fastboot and ADB system wide. Is that an option?
Well while evolution_freak helps you out, I'd like to chime in and say that I always stayed away from any 1-click anything, as well as any auto ROM/recovery updater.
You never know if you downloaded the wrong file
and then I just imagined hundreds of lines of code pouring into my poor little phone and how it would be screaming inside ):
I've seen lots of hard bricks happen from 1-click packages, learning how to do things the dirty way is more fun anyway!

Try this, power off your nexus and manually boot it to bootloader. Hold power down and press volume up. Once it boots to bootloader, connect to your computer.

See if it is detected then and try the command: fastboot devices
