Hey, I just updated over Kies (which worked perfectly BTW) and now I'm trying to root but for some reason it fails to do so. Has this happened to anyone else?
No problems. Look up.oneclickroot

I went fine for me using oneclick.
Can someone link to the one click root for me please?

I don't think you can root the update, something to do with the 3e recovery I think. There is a way to mod the 3e recovery to allow for root, there are directions somewhere in one of the threads.
I just install one of the pre-rooted ones in the dev section, the hardwork was done thanks to the nice devs.
My girlfriend has a stock vibrant and wants the news and weather widget but it doesn't come in the 2.2 update so I need to install it but can't without root. At least I don't think I can. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

Might be device dependent - I ended up Odining back to stock and starting over with a rooted flash because it would not pass sig check for me no matter what after the kies update.
Use freaking one click root...
Do a google search on that and you'll find a link on xda..
Have u heard of google?
With One-Click Root I'm getting "E:signature verification failed". Anybody have any ideas on how to get around this?
Just ODIN Supercurios KA6 voodoo kernel with root & cwm in it already
Really think I don't know how to root? Come on.
It is not working for some of those who ended up with the .sbl. Odin out, and flash a rooted version if you are one of those who can't beat the sig check.
Hey I just got my Lg oPtimus one P500 and I want to know how to root it, superoneclick doesnt work for some odd reason (I think I needed to download some huge apk program or something, idk, I'm not much of a techie) and I need to know how to root it! (is there an app I can download? z4root didn't work)
If I root is it gonna erase all my data?
and where can I find a link to information on how to overclock my phone. cause I want to get it a bit faster but I don't want to blow it up :\
id appreciate help, thanks!
Go back to ROM 2.2 and then Install z4root. It's pretty straight forward.

You can also use SuperOneClick.
Here is a guide for doing everything from rooting through to custom ROM with lots of explanation.

hi ya, i have just come from the pulse which i know is totally different, and the wildfire, which wasnt rooted, this phone is amazing compared to them, so far francos rom to me is perfect and each kernel he releases is perfect for me aswell.
oh and to the OP, im not sure about using the other roots but with gingerbreak, i installed it on the phone, run it, it rooted it and put superuser on there, i then used the guide and put on the custom recovery and francos rom, all in all it was very easy..
i tried the gingerbreak v1.20 on v10c 2.2.1 indian stock rom and it worked perfectly.
btw i broke my old optimus and bought a new one.
so sad my dead optimus
I used the LG software tool to update my Optimus T from Froyo 2.2, LG-P509-V10l to 2.2.2, LG-P509-V10S. Now I can't get it re-rooted. In both v10l and the one before that, I was able to easily use z4root to gain root access. Now z4root starts, but closes a few seconds later without completing. Have also tried Universal Androot and Super One Click 1.91. Both fail. SuperOneClick doesn't offically fail, it sees the phone just fine, but never gets past "Running psneuter."
I had used the LG software tool once before to upgrade to v10l and all went well. Only issue with v10l was very slow performance using wifi. This new version, v10s seems to have fixed that, but includes more "crapware" than ever before AND has a new self-starting app called Wifi Calling that tries to ram wifi calling down your throat if you are connected that way. You gotta manually disable it (opt out) to stop it from automtically sending your calls AND texts over wifi! And then it has the nerve to inform you that wifi calls still count against your minutes!!!
Any idea why this new sw version is breaking three different rooting methods?
z4root does not work for Android 2.2.1 or later. Gingerbreak is what you need. It is great and easy. I rooted my Optimus T with it.
Hey, thanks for the heads up! I'll give Gingerbreak a try and post my results later.
Gingerbreak works! Thanks again, you made my day and weekend! Hope other people will find this thread. Gingerbreak is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Already got Titanium backup Pro reinstalled and am ripping out the crapware now.

Great! Chrome crashed and by the time I get back to give you a link to gingerbreak, you have rooted the phone.
Have fun!!
PS It is better to freeze apps rather than delete them. Just in case.
Yeah, I'm quick when it's that easy! I rip out the real crap like game demos and web2go to save space, and I do freeze the rest. TB is just the best!
had the same issue after upgrading to 2.2.2 thanks a lot for this post saved me
since we have optimus T on the topic does anyone know why the new 2.3.3 baseband internet doesnt work here in the US at least with the optimus T
If works. Not with your ROM.

Was that a it or if?? And if it was for me then what 2.3.3 ROM with new baseband works on tmobile optimus T
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
ROMs based on stock GB only. Unless you are told that you need a new baseband for the ROM, it will NOT work. Read the instructions for the ROM.
My incredible is rooted running 2.2 and would like to upgrade with gingerbread.
I have tried a few things but seems that the ROM file that I have been able to download won't open.
Also, is CM7 better than gingerbread?
Please help.

Hi - if you have not found it by now there is a great thread about this here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19356442#post19356442
wildstang83 - packaged up the OTA and made a flashable ROM that works perfectly. I had rooted with Unrevoked just to freeze some bloat and for the fun of it but had never done a ROM before this so I was definitely apprehensive but with a little help from Titanium Backup I'm purrring along with Gingerbread now.
Although I thanked him in person with a PM I would like to let anyone know who reads this he knows what he is doing and on top of that seems like a really good dude. So go for it and thanks again wildstang83!
Hey guys, i got my atrix earlier this morning and have been trying to root and unlock the device. While unlocking the devices was easy thanks to this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423
got got to the end of it and my atrix says unlocked when it boots up which is great but i can't seem to root the devices i have tried a lot of the thread here, i won't be able to fix the ram problem without root .Could anyone help me out?
As far as i know there is no direct rooting method for 2.3.6 yet, ideally you would have been better off rooting 2.3.4 and using OTA Rootkeeper and then updating to 2.3.6. Shouldn't be long before someone comes out with a root method for your version.
hmm so i'm stuck with this for now? i came from a rooted milestone so i don't really know but i can't flash any rom for now right?
After a little surfing the guys down in Brazil claim to be rooting their Atrix phones running 2.3.6 using the SuperOneClick method i'm not sure if you've tryed it yet but it's worth a shot.

If you can't find a working SuperOneClick download link there's this one:

Edit: As for the installing of custom ROMs without root i'm not to sure about that sorry.
thanks a lot i'll try if it works
Edit: it seems that it is working you just made my day even better
edit 2: i got superuser installed but i can't seem to be able to delete/rename the install-recovery.sh as stated in the guide' i'll try to see what is wrong
edit 3: i am rooted and titanium back up works i'll take a break and figure out the rest later thanks again
Try using the root explorer in the ROM Toolbox app, supposedly some file explorers will not give you the proper access levels to delete or rename the files correctly. Read that in tayshun12's thread:
