There you go :D

http://www.lgmobiles.com/gsm/download/P920 V20B (Gingerbread Version).zip

To root the bin file (instructions based on the one here)

Requirements: WinHex, a Linux distro (VMs work fine), drivers and flasher.

Instructions

1. Extract and open LGP920AT-00-V20b-ESA-XXX-JAN-10-2012+0_AP.bin in WinHex or any other hex editor.

2. Use WinHex to dump the content from offset B80000 (hexadecimal) to the end (select B80000 as start block and 22ABFFFF as end block and copy it to a new file), and save the dump as system.img.

3. Copy the .img to your Linux distro. Place it in the desktop. Now open terminal, cd to Desktop and enter the following commands one by one:

What this does is mount the img into the temp folder. However, the files are read only. To copy su and superuser.apk, download both file, place them in the Desktop and enter the following commands:

Now, you have to set permissions for su and superuser.apk.

To save the changes, enter this:

Now, copy image.img back to Windows or whichever environment you prefer.

4. Copy the contents of the img file in WinHex. Go back to the bin file in WinHex and remove any data from offset B80000 onwards. You should be left with offsets 0 to B7FFFF. Right click block B7FFFF, select clipboard data > paste and accept all the prompts. You can now save the .bin file.

5. Now, it's time to flash the .bin. Extract the drivers somewhere and install "LGUnitedMobileDriver_S497CA20_WHQL_ML_Ver_1.0 .exe" and "LGUnitedMobileDriver_S497MA20_WHQL_ML_Ver_1.0.exe". Then, extract the flasher to another location.

6. With the .bin and .fls (found in the zip file containing the .bin as well) in hand, turn your phone off and remove both SD and SIM cards.

7. Hold volume up button while inserting the usb cable. When your computer detects the phone, let go of the button.

8. Once the driver installs, run B_SmartFlashTool_Extern.exe, go to the ROM copy D/L tab

9. Select the .bin file under CP bin and the .fls file under AP .bin.

10. Click start. Don't touch anything.

11. Once it's done, close the flasher, unplug your phone and insert the SIM and SD cards and turn it on.

12. Done :D

Zip file contains both .fls and .bin files.

So it seems roms based on v20B might be in the works ;)

EDIT: Not going to upload, has been superseded by v20E and the Megatron exploit.

he's uploading the v20b bin as we speak, also someone might need to make a thread on "patched firmware" if people are finding more .bin files
[LG Optimus 3D] pandaball:
I'm 30% through the second zip file, Mediafire only allows maximum 200MB per file so I had to split up the .bin. It should be up in about an hours' time.

Can somebody patch this bin. I think this is newest ROM 18.01.2012.

I'm downloading it now, download speeds are really slow. I'll take a look once it finishes downloading.

EDIT: Bin. V20E 18.01.2012

Follow the updated instructions, they should be concise enough to follow.

In other news, I realised I forgot to set permissions for superuser.apk and su. So, I have to reupload everything due to my mistake. Sorry guys, I can only upload everything tomorrow as it's getting late :(

[LG Thrill 4G] Mad383Max:
Going to pickup a galaxy note on one of my family plan upgrades. Going to have my number transfered to the note sim which is LTE. What happens to my old sim card in the thrill if I don't give it to them? I am keeping the thrill also, and the upgrade # will still be used on my son's non smart phone. If they deactivate the thrill sim, will a LTE sim work in the thrill?

I may just give the thrill to my other son if I can't swap the sim back and forth. Have never had a problem with this phone and really don't want to give it up but, after some hands on time with the note, I just can not see not getting one. It's a beast of a phone and with my big hands it is the perfectly size.

LOL, I digress. Anyone have any insights to the sim questions?
[LG Thrill 4G] cougargt:
They just turn it off. I got a new sim for my thrill from at&t and they gave me my old sim back. I guess it just doesn't work anymore. But I've never checked it.
[LG Thrill 4G] bedwa:
Newer sim cards will always be backwards compatible. (In fact, leave the Note IMEI on your line so you have all compatible data gateways as well.)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carfanatic:
Title says most of it but will give whole back story.

On EL29 Rooted using the EL29 Odin flash then used the e4gtauto-sfx and flashed EL29+CWM. Used CWM did a backup and then installed Blazer Rom tried it for a few days and then wanted to try something else to see what else there is. So not thinking I used Odin and used the flash back to EL29 rooted and then lost CWM.

I am now trying to use the e4gtauto-sfx to flash back to EL29+CWM but it gets to waiting for device to be connected and will go no further. I have checked and unchecked usb debugging, installed and uninstalled drivers again and again and no matter what I do the e4gtauto-sfx will not connect to my phone again. I can use Odin fine and I can see it in my device manager the same as before other programs like CDMA Workshop recognize it fine but not the e4gtauto-sfx.

Out of ideas of how to fix it so here asking for any help to try to figure this out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Get the EG30 Odin or get a kernel with CWM built in in Odin form. EL29 has a different bootloader that's why the auto root does not work on it. I always just flash EG30 and go at it from there fast and simple.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carfanatic:
So I can use the "same" EG30 root flash for Odin just like I did the EL29 or some other steps required to flash different modems?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Yes just find a kernel with CWM already built in in Odin tar format. Use Odin to flash it and it will give you CWM back and you are fine.

My rule of thumb I just always keep EG30 tar around if I need it but that's me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lafester:
odin does not require a rooted phone to flash.

you can flash any rom/kernel/modem you wish providing it is a .tar file.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
If Auto Root doesn't recognize your phone, basically "adb" doesn't recognize your phone. That is pretty basic functionality if you are on xda. You should go over FAQ #E3 in the 2nd post of the Auto Root thread, which is the troubleshooting checklist. I would reboot your PC also (or kill the adb server using Option E)

You don't actually need a PC to install CWM. Just copy the files in copy2sd\000root and copy2sd-img\000root to your /sdcard on your phone and follow the manual install directions in the 2nd post of the Auto Root thread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HareyCarey:
Bought an Epic today from an individual and esn was good, but went to activate and they did a hard reset and this put it back to stock. I received an ota and when battery had enough charge I hit update. About halfway through after it rebooted to update, it stopped and went to a white triangle with orange exclamation. I searched but on the mmobile app on xda it is less than accurate. So sorry if his has been answered.

Btw, guy said it hadn't been rooted before...so I don't know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pewipo123:
maybe he lied?!... anyways.. try to boot into download mode by holding the UP botton on the side and the power button at the same time.. keep holding....keep holding.... ut should take you into dowbload mode.... once its there.. let go... puth the UP button one more time... ( just a click this time without the power button ) and it should say "downloading ".... if you can get this far..( wich you should)... then your in the clear.... next download a stock .TAR file and ODIN..( to your pc ) .....

load Odin.....once its up and running, connect your data cable and your oding program should show thays its connected.. now under PDA open the .tar file....click the box next to PDA. and then slick START........

I also recommend flashing the modem with it (not required) but you may see an improvement in signal strength, speed, battery life, etc... after flashed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
If you want to see why the OTA was failing (ie what files were modified or removed), you can use Option E in the Auto Root sticky and choose the appropriate OTA compliance check, EG30 or EK02.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HareyCarey:
Unfortunately, at the moment, I do not have access to a computer that I can use to download Odin to and use...story of my life..so I am trying to find someone in my area that does and that has this phone that would be willing to help for now if Sprint won't replace it today(second time I will have had to go to that blasted repair center(read:total joke))

...yo dawg we heard you like parenthesis..

Couldn't resist..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
You don't need ODIN to run the OTA compliance check. You don't even need a computer. You just need to download the scripts to your phone and run them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HareyCarey:
They used Odin at the store to push the EL29 update...buuut...now I want to root lol. Have to wait until I get my computer back.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
I froze it using titanium backup because of the same thing. (Must be rooted and only paid version can freeze) otherwise app called quarantine or something can do it for free.

I haven't bothered to look into why it runs because I use poweramp so I don't need it.

Actually there are plenty of apps that run without you wanting them to so freezing bloatware is worth it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidkid311:
Another option is to download gemini app from market and configure the music apps auto run. If u disable it from auto running it wont open itself. Saves u from freezing and unfreezing if u want to use it some time. :)

[LG Thrill 4G] pandaball:
V20B was unrootable before the .bin file was found. Blame LG for blocking SOC, zergRush etc.

This version of V20B is from the Asia-Pacific region so it should have:

GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

However, the difference between P920 and P920H is this:

P920: HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100

P920H: HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 2100
[LG Thrill 4G] cougargt:
Isn't the .bin file just the OS? Doesn't the .fls file contain the basebands? So if we have working basebands on our phone we should be able to flash the cracked .bin file and be good to go?
