Have you got the LG drivers installed, phone set to USB debugging mode in settings? When you connect your phone to the PC do you see an LG device in your Device Manager?
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Ok in the few minutes between my last post, your response, and this reply I've succeeded. I did have all of that done, but the problem was something else I guess.

I restarted my computer and then ran SuperOneClick. It went through the whole process, but at the end said "Bad Luck - our rush did not succeed". I then ran the DoomLord and it worked. I now see the SuperUser icon in the appdrawer. Now I've got to find where it tells me how to do a hard reset.

edit: found a hard reset tutorial and got that done. I still have root and SuperUser. Time to learn.
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Yeah, we don't have hard reset that would bring the phone to virgin state...root stays because it's part of system now.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
What do you mean by "virgin state"? When I did the hard reset it popped up with a msdos looking notice asking to confirm factory reset. It took it back to stock form.

Do you mean there is no actual reset that completely wipes away everything that wasn't hard programmed from the factory?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
If you have made changes to your system partition (like rooting, for example), you will notice a factory data reset does not clear those changes. It does not flash a backup system image, unfortunately. If it did, there'd be no easy to way to brick your phone lol.
[LG Nitro HD] PMad:
If your having trouble rooting, try this method:

Download Doomlords zergrush exploit from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1321582

Go to Menu > Settings > Applications > Development > Enable USB Debugging

Next connect your phone and dont worry about the menu that comes up.

Shut off your phone, and turn it back on.

Once you get to the lockscreen, unlock it and run the .BAT file from doomlords Zergrush exploit. The lag from starting up will allow the "zerglings" to do their thing. This has worked for me on 4 Nitro's now where i tried doing it normally and it would never go.

Anyone know someone with a lg spectrum that has used this method? just curious as there very similar and my spectrum should be here in a few days =)
[LG Nitro HD] selders59:
I have had the spectrum for 3 days now and just found this thread. I would also like to know if this will work on our devices. My biggest complaint is the spectrum battery life is worse than my old evo 3D. After 4 hours normal use had to plug into charger cause battery was down to 23%.

[LG Nitro HD] Snake42490:
I just picked up the Nitro two days ago :) I rooted tonight, I force installed each driver, multiple times. The first couple of times it froze on the 7th step and wouldn't continue. What ended up working for me, I checked the box to keep the phone lit up while it was charging along with USB debugging. I think the keeping the phone awake allowed it to respond! Thanks for this!!!

Rooting LG Nitro

Has anyone had luck rooting after the last update? What I've got:

Model Number: LG-P930

Android Version: 2.3.5

Baseband Version: P930-MDM9200B-V10j-FEB-26-2012-XX 1

Kernal Version: 2.6.35.11

Build Number: GRJ90

Software Version: LG-P930-V10j-FEB26-2012

If so, please post which method or a link to what worked. Went through this thread, but haven't seen anything.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
You can't root that version. If you want to get root, you'll need to use unbricking method to install a ROM that can be rooted (like the russian one), root it, then flash back to a ROM you want to use.

Version LG-P930-V10f-OCT-31-2011

Im using Version LG-P930-V10f-OCT-31-2011 and two methods: SuperOneCLick & Manual Root have not worked. Ive installed ADB and LG drivers. Its not recognizing the device in ADB. Help please
[LG Nitro HD] myteematt:
Figured it Out

I finally figured it out. It was a driver issue. I used USBdeView to uninstall the USB drivers. Then installed LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN36AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3. 6. Then I installed the LGMobile Support Tool and ADB finally recognized the device. SuperOneClick worked fine and rooted quickly after that. Now running CM9 nightly. Thanks for support and assistance. The "how to root" instructions should be updated to include the versions of files that work best and include LGMobile Support Tool as well.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
Has anyone been able to root:

P930-MDM9200B-V11a-NOV-04-2011-XX 1 ?

I might buy a used Bell Optimus LTE with this Baseband.

Where can I download ADB from, do I just download the whole Android SDK from : http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html ?

Also, LG drivers from: http://www.lg.com/ca_en/support/pro...ile-mobile-redux&searchEngineModelCode=LGP930 ?

Thanks for all the help, my Desire came unlocked and rooted so I never had to do this.
[LG Nitro HD] jekostas:
V11A can be rooted using the SuperOneClick method, but sometimes it takes a few tries. I have a Bell LTE with that same firmware and it worked perfectly.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
Just picked it up, near mint condition, less then a month old, just have to unlock it.

The phone is locked to Bell, is that the carrier I'd put on: http://unlockphonenetwork.com/ ?

The carrier it's locked to?

Thanks
[LG Nitro HD] daCLOUD:
Yes, that's correct. Select the carrier that the phone is locked to, not who you are going be using the phone on.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
Alrighty, unlocked and rooted!

If I want to try CM9 / any custom ROM, my first step is to install CWM right?

How can I backup my current recovery? Via ROM Manager? Is ROM Manager the best way to get CWM installed as well?

Thanks for all the help guys
[LG Nitro HD] jekostas:
1. Download ROM Manager

2. Install CWM through ROM Manager

3. Select "Reboot in to Recovery"

4. Once you're in Recovery mode, under Backup and Restore make a backup of your current OS

5. Install to your heart's content, but don't touch the Backup

Works perfectly for stock GB, as I used this method to move between CM9 and the stock Gingerbread release until I moved to the leaked stock ICS release.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
And once CWM is installed and the backup is made, you can flash the new "leaked" ICS ROM and switch back to whichever other ROM you want fine?

I think I read that some people got "stuck" on the ICS one because their recovery was overwritten or something.

They may not have had a P930 though I don't think, I think they may have had the SU____ ones that are similar to the P930.

I think I read that they had to use the "unbrick" method to "downgrade" their ROM from the leaked ICS one.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
You are correct. Going to the leaked ICS isn't necessarily a bad thing, but going back can be messier and time consuming because the "unbrick method" requires flashing a rootable korean rom, rooting that, installing ClockworkMod, and then restoring previous recoveries. It can be scary the first time and requires a lot of setup steps to perform properly.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
So, going back from the leaked ROM on a P930 is a pain in the butt?

Or just for the non P930 models?
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Yes

ROM Manager is the best way to install CWM. However, if you want to back up your current recovery, you must do it before installing CWM (but after rooting). Download terminal emulator from the market, open it, and type the following. For completeness sake, I'll go ahead and include how to back up all 5 of your main partitions (why not have backups of them just in case?).

su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/boot.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/firmware.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 of=/sdcard/baseband.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27 of=/sdcard/system.img

After that, all your backup files will be on the SD card. Make sure to type these exactly as displayed above, all in lowercase, etc.

Unfortunately switching from the new leaked ICS ROM isn't very easy at this point. If you want to be able to switch easily, just wait until someone releases a modified version of the leaked ROM that can be flashed from CWM.

Yes, it's a pain in the butt for P930 too.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
Thanks for the info.

I'll backup my stuff and install CWM then give the CM9 beta a try.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
When I tried to flash CWM via. ROM Manager it just sat there and did do anything.

A progress bar was at the top, and a little circle was spinning, but it didn't do anything for 5 minutes... is that normal?

How long should it take?

Update: After the first try I rebooted the phone and tried again and it worked.
[LG Nitro HD] :
Am I correct in assuming that there still is no root for the LG-P30-V10j firmware? It isn't so much that I want a new ROM, I really just want to take a few of the preinstalled apps that the app manager won't let me uninstall off of my phone.
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
If you go through Machzelet's unbricking guide, you will be able to revert from v10j back to whatever update that was rootable with a working CWM.
[LG Nitro HD] dillonr:

[LG Nitro HD] Johntastic:
Yeah, if anyone knows how to root the LG-P930-V20c firmware, that would be some awesome news. The CM website says to use zergRush, but after reading that thread, I do not believe that will be successful at the moment. Also, the file seems to have been removed from their site...

Would using Machzelet's unbricking guide do the trick? It's not my phone, so I can't be the one who tests it.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
For anyone asking how to root, the topic has been covered extensively... use the search function! There are literally between 20 to 50 distinct threads in the general forum with answers to EVERY SINGLE question being asked here.

EDIT:

According to mattman86 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1891922), there are 40 individual threads about rooting. Here is the link to his thread, which has links to all of them, which most assuredly ONE holds the answer to just about any question in relation to rooting the P930 or SU640 on whatever firmware you may have along with the links to any software you may need.
[LG Nitro HD] X0dus:
Thx for your assuring reply on rooting. At the time of my question, the search function was under maintenance apparently and by time it was up again, I found the "unbrick, root, cwm" thread, but I forgot to edit my comment here accordingly. Your frustrations are felt as I was once as active of an XDA user as the next person.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
No frustration at all, really :good:

But you do have to admit, 40 distinct threads about rooting a phone that really doesn't seem to be that popular in the 1st place is a little odd, lol.
[LG Nitro HD] X0dus:
That's a lot of threads, yes, and most likely they're all from "noobs" or those who haven't read the rules, the clicked links, then read again, thought about the rules of the XDA, ect. My first phone was the Samsung Fascinate on VZW and I NEVER posted on XDA b/c quite frankly the people were in the business of being a douche, it seemed. BUT, I learned the rules of XDA during this time and learned to help yourself before asking for help here at xda-developers.

**Edit** Thankfully there was/is HO!NO! doing dev work for this phone, though! I haven't tried any other ROM but his Full Throttle CM9 and I'm perfectly happy w/ it as a daily driver. Unless he begins work on a CM10 utilizing his oc/uv kernel then I'm sticking w/ Full Throttle. Thanks for your help in these forums, lordcheeto03.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
He said he was going to work on a CM10 version and I'm waiting patiently, yet eagerly. To be honest, I'm getting pretty awesome (for the Nitro + extended battery, anyway) battery life off CM10. Went 17 hours last night and still had 71%. I'd recommend backing up your full throttle and just flashing a few just to test the waters.
[LG Nitro HD] X0dus:
I've been tossing around the idea. I'm trying to let the ROM/Kernel rest a few days after calibration before I say the battery life is 'iffy. Right now, I'm dropping about 5%/hr. Working on settings as well as undervolt settings on lower frequencies to try and get best battery life while in sleep. Thanks.

**EDIT** 17 hours and you only dropped 29%?!! Are you using the phone at all? :P
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
I thought the v20c firmware couldn't be rooted....i've tried everything, even rageagainstthecage from old times. Nothing worked :(
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
v20c can be rooted by the KeepRoot method, which involves first flashing the V18f firmware, then running a script, then flashing the V20c firmware, then running another script. The KeepRoot method will work with every P930 ROM.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
I had about 45 minutes on the phone, just under 2 hours "Screen on", and about an hour on Chrome... The pic I uploaded was with almost 4 hours "screen on" time.
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
Sheesh, that destroys my galaxy s3's battery life.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
It's not really a fair comparison though since I'm using a 3800mAh battery. If I was using the stock battery I would have miserable battery life. I tried the stock one out about 2 weeks ago with CM10 and, even though there was a marked improvement in battery life over the stock ICS or GB ROM, it was still only about 8-10 hours of texting/facebook and a few calls. In GB or ICS I was lucky to get 6 hours before I had to frantically search for a wall outlet to plug my charger in.
[LG Nitro HD] X0dus:
Not bad. After letting the HO!NO! CM9 ROM/Kernel settle in, and some UV adjustments, my battery life isn't too bad. I've experienced worse w/ previous phones. My longest on stock battery was 1d 12hrs w/ just under 2hrs of 'Screen on' time. My average lately is about 20-24hrs w/ phone calls, extreme txting, FB, browser, ect. If I play any game, though, you can kiss the battery goodbye. :P I'm just gonna patiently wait to see if HO!NO! drops a CM10 w/ his OC/UV kernel, or a stable CM10 release.
[LG Nitro HD] J3STUR:
Unroot?

Can anyone tell me how I go about unrooting my phone and putting it back on the stock rom? I need to send it to AT&T. I am not really that familiar with LG devices.

I know with HTC you could just install the Offical RUU and it would take it back to stock image and unroot it. Is KDZ file kind of like a RUU file? I have CWM on it right now and CM9.

Can any one tell me how I can set it back to unrooted stock please? and where the files are to do this. I have search around and all i have found so far is someone said Superoneclick but read that does not work ICS or JB.

Thank you very much!
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Yes, very similar. If you have ever gone through the unbricking guide, you first need to remove the line you added to the hosts file. (If you haven't, don't worry about it.)

Next, run this: http://www.gigashare.in/427a5 (installs ICS leak)

Then follow these instructions: http://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/ATT_Update/index.jsp (installs official ICS version)

You should perform a factory reset after completing the process.

V20f unrootable?

I have the LG Optimus LTE on Bell Canada network updated to v20f-OCT-31-2012 firmware.

I cannot root with any of the methods I tried:

- Superoneclick always stops at step 7

- SRS one click "auto root failed on this device"

- Bin4Ry, new or old methods fail. The backup/restore screen show up but it doesn't root.

Tried, disabling AV, firewall, running as admin, read tons of web pages, tried changing USB ports, unmounting SD card, removing sd card, tried on Win7 x64, Vista x64, installed latest LG drivers, USB debugging checked, selected "LG software" on the phone when connecting the cable, etc etc. To no avail.

At this point I don't know what to do. I noticed that the root methods seemed to work on V20e. I can't recall someone having managed to root the v20f.
