Hi there,
I am planing to buy the P500. My question is are there any restrictions when using a Mac to access the phone? Is it possible to access the phone especially up-/download images music etc. or would I need a Windows or linux computer for doing that?
Second question is, is it possible to flash a custom rom to the phone using the Mac?
This will be my first Android Mobile so I am not at all experienced ...
And for the flashing part is there a step to step tutorial how to do it?
Thanks in advance,
Thorsten

U can unlock by contact your carrier to obtain the unlock code or buy a sim unlock chip to trick your device into thinking the inserted sim is correct sim card. Don't know if there is soft unlock yet.

well heres my problem:
my phone (optimus one) is new and i still have insurance from the company.
i really want to root my phone in order to install overclocking app because as you know this phone is not that quick.
anyways, people told me that first i need to downgrade my device and than root it with some softwares and to be honest i don't know **** about those stuff.
i would really like someonee here, who knows how to do those things, to help me though skipe or msn and take me though those steps without destroing my android.
my msn: ok i cant write my msn here than just know that the name is Wizarflesh and the mail is gmail.
my skipe: omri.haim
huge thanks to anyone who can help me root my phone.
at least post some info l
like what is your firmware version?
allright
where do i find it? what is a frimware?
i meant it when i said i dont know **** about those stuff.
i am from israel and i bought the O1 from orange company in hebrew languang.
it is 2.2.1 android
Settings ---> About Phone ---> Software Version
Only v10b is root-able. If you have other version you gotta downgrade to v10b.
lg-p500-v10d
can one of you guys help me do all those steps? otherwise i will probably screw my phone
I believe you can do it with Superoneclick

you cannot root 2.2.1
you can find all the info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875881
basically find an original LG firmware for your country that is 2.2 (v10b). Then flash phone using flash tool from emergency mode with firmware.
Once you have the original 2.2 rom on the phone, grab Z4root app and then easy to root phone.
Next step is custom rom like cyanogenmod 7 etc if you want real performance! start reading! (alot)
Has anyone tried SuperOneClick to root the O1? They say that it can root any version of Android. Is that true with O1?
No,only 2.2 is rootable for now
I suggest that you read the thread given below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244
The instructions are well explained there.

Once you root your phone immediately install the recovery. Don't play with a rooted handset if it is not having recovery. Otherwise you will end up in a boot loop and its really hard to get phone back in working condition(in case something goes wrong).
Be very carefull while installing recovery. Crosscheck twice before you push anything to handset.
Chat with me on g talk my I'd is [email protected]....

you can root with this. I did it

Yup... its been tested and proven that you can root 2.2.1 using Gingerbreak (dont u guys read the news??? ), though i havent done it myself... rooted mine long time back before Gingerbreak came
use gingerbreak....
can you install CM or amon recovery and and custom rom on P350?
well, I allready got my xperia mini pro rooted but with firmware 4.0.2.A.0.42 and android 2.3.4 GB. It's a brand free new phone, I haven't even inserted a SIM since I received it yesterday, I'm still waiting for my SIM. I've only downgraded the firmware & rooted the SO, nothing else (the only new change is the adition of superuser after rooting)
I'd like to know the steps I have to follow from this point to install a rooted android 4 ICS , if there is any good guide to lead me..
Thanks
EDIT: finished...simpler than I thought

You have to downgrade to a rootable version using Flashtool, then root it using DooMLoRD's method. THIS tutorial is absolutely not obsolete... and it's sticked in the first page of the forum
I got confused
thanks for your reply
I saw it before, but I was confused in beginning, it seems there's a msitake:
when it says "NOTE: If you have newer firmware(4.0.2.A.0.62 or 4.0.2.A.0.69), check tutorial 3 first to downgrade your firmware"
should say "...check tutorial 4" That silly thing made me think that the whole tutorial was wrong or obsolete, cause both points have nothing to do with each other.
Thanks for your help, I'm gonna try it
PD: do I need a SIM card in any step of the whole prcess?
No. I don't think you'll need a sim

lilflix7, first of all to understand what is rooting you need to understand the basics of a Linux system, as Android is nothing but a system using the Linux kernel. "root" is like a default administrator account in Linux , which gives you hardware level access. For example giving hardware level access to applications which manage CPU Scaling for battery efficiency. By default the vendors lock out the "root" access just to protect their warranty incase you do something harmful (i.e. deleting important system files") or a malware granting itself administrative privilege to mess with your phone. But some of us have found ways to enable it incase we want better control of our phones for more customization (i.e freeing up some space by deleting unnecessary system applications) and hacking. The methods vary depending upon the make and the models and most importantly the Android Version .. As it sometimes varies between gingerbread and ICS .. With ST15i with ICS please don't consider rooting the phone directly using the scripts, you might end up with a brick.. Downgrade to a Gingerbread Kernel after which you may have a soft brick due to the kernel mismatch, but then you can run the DooMLoRD rooting tool with busybox....After this process switch back to the stock kernel and you are rooted xD .. Please note Firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 and 4.0.2.A.0.69 are difficult to root on a locked boootloader. So to root gingerbread you need to flash either 4.0.2.A.0.42 or 4.0.2.A.0.58 and then Root.. This might sound hebrew to you as you are new to this phone, so i suggest you to read through the forums before you decide your call. As "rooting" your phone will void your warranty AND MOST IMPORTANTLY BRICK YOUR PHONE if you do something wrong.. Here is a detailed guide on how to root ST15i (talk.sonymobile.com/thread/41119?start=0&tstart=0).. I have tried it on my week old ST15i and its rooted flawlessly now xD.. All the very best..
