No, you're fine as long as you're unlocked and have not updated OTA to 2.3.4.
Good luck!

[Q] just a simple Question please Answer it ....

hi.
thanks for you time to reading this...
i buy a X10i from the market in used it is ruining on Android 1.6
i want to rooted it and update on 2.1
i know both thing that who to root it and how to update it.
i just want to know that which action i do perform first ? either i rooted it or update it.
please tell me i update it first or rooted it first.
and one thing more if i update it from sonyericsson then after update can i rooted it with the help of Z4root or not
Update it to 2.1 then root it with flash tools. Then why not install xRecovery and use a custom rom TripNMiUI 2.2.1 v1.4 is nice
Sent from my X10i TripNMiUI using XDA Premium App
install 2.1 and all things needed (root, superuser,busybox --> all in flashtool)
take a look at dev section and have fun
Update first then root using flashtool.
Once uwill get to that stage, maybe a custom rom? TripNMiui 2.2.1 is very nice and stable

Hello guys

Im using megatron rom it is froyo ver. 2.2 it is very stable no bug at all.
But i recommend you to flash francisco devoid rom.
It is actually depend of what you actually need. Check it out on optimus one android development forum here. You can find fabulous rom there you cab choose to flash or maybe you can learn how to create your own rom. Goodluck

The above post says it all....I would also suggest you to try out mik's CM7 b6.5, it's nearly complete in all respects besides a few bugs...
I use devoid.franco with franco.kerner v13. If you want this ROM I advise you to use AmonRA Recovery.
i m on clockmod recover now how can i do AmonRA Recovery on my device plz help me
u don't need AmonRa. just boot into the recovery by going on terminal
su
reboot recovery
i too have clockwork 3.1 recovery right now... which is better? AmonRa or Clockwork? and can u flash a new recovery from the recovery or do u have to do some adb stuff? Not sure how flashing a different recovery works
ROM
I'm currently using devoid franco & his kernels. It is minimal & I get a decent battery life
Finally I have decided to go with devoid.Franco.
Thank you all guys for suggestions.

help selling my p500 soon

I'm planning to trade-in my p500, but i don't think mobile operator will buy it if it is rooted and has custom rom on it. so is there a way i can revert it all back to stock froyo unrooted? I'm currently on andy's phoenix gb rom with cwm recovery.
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
You must use KDZ.
could someone point me to the right direction please? I've looked but didn't find anything for reverting. thank you!

I had the same problem.
In order to get back to stock i used kudoz and installed a 10e european version and after that I used lg update tool and flashed the latest official gingerbread release for my country.
And surprise...it worked flawlessly, I was back on stock before you know it!
can you give me full instructions?
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Just follow the instructions in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060121.
after you are done with that connect the phone to pc and fire up lg mobile update tool and update.
that's it!

Best rooting method for stock 2.3.5.?

Hello,
Apparently, upd_1.zip method doesn't work, and SuperOneClick 2.3.3 can't root stock 2.3.5.
How can I root my Ace?
What's the error you are getting?
Is it something like status 7?
I also encountered similar issue.
1st time stock ROM root is OK. After roll back from custom ROM to same stock ROM, I got this error!
Try to wipe cache, format etc .. It works for me!
yeh I had that problem for like 5 weeks trying to root my ace but it had no root access !
OK so download cf-root b3
and flash with cwm 4
then just flash a different rom !
that simple
now I have root and a custom from!!!

I'm not getting any error, I read about experiences with both these tools and I'm pretty sure they can't root the device with stock 2.3.5. firmware. I want to know if anyone had success in rooting 2.3.5. and what tools had been used.

I don't want to flash a new firmware or a new recovery. I just want to root my phone so that I can remove some pre-installed applications.

Stock 2.3.5 ? I rooted it using the upd_1.zip file. Worked for me. Try the file posted in 'ZIP file to root ace" in this section. It might help.

Updated my brand new galaxy two days ago. Had no problems and was locked to the three network.
Used stock recovery to flash cwm v4 and then used this to apply the root update zip.
I am now running nimms amazing cm 7.2 rom and have had no problems.

Currently, which rom are u using?
and initially, were u on stock 2.2 (froyo) or 2.3 (gingerbread)...when u had ur "connection" working?
i tryed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529777
the previous mod was 2.3.7
it may be because of u tried to flash a rom of different baseband....if u was initially on LG stock 2.3.3 then u should use rom wich have new baseband....nd If u was on stock 2.2 then old roms should be work fine...
so i can't istall newest roms??
gimme a link of a cool room whit latest android please!
you can install official GB from LG website. In this way you will get the new baseband automatically. After that, you can root the device (there are many guides available around), install from market clockworkmod recovery and install any new ROM from this site.
Good luck!

Ok, but what ROM and baseband do you have now?
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
if you want to use newest rom with new baseband then just upgrade your baseband....search for how to upgrade basebande in xda...there's a beautiful guide on that and it's quite safe i have changed mine 2 times already ;-)
Go here, read everything and STOP WHINING AROUND!!!!
now i have original lg rom updated... 2.3.3
but when it start it says wind... (f**king phone company)
Maybe the Rom you flash is not suitable for your sim, there are two version of Roms like milestone and droid
Milestone is for gsm
Droid is for the other one(i can't remember the name)
Or you should try stock Rom?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA
he already said that is official GB from LG.
If that is the case, maybe you shpuldtrywoth another SIM. Looks like a SIM issue to me.
