Hi, I have the LG-P509 with build # frf91 SW ver... lg-p509-v10h...can I use any root method / rom in this forum or does it have to be specifically made for the P509? Thanks in advance...sorry nOOb on this phone...have vibrant...this will be for my nephew...
I did do a search btw before posting, but only found this anwser...
" Yes! Its just a general discussion section so you can post your queries regarding Optimus T here "
this doesn't answer MY q as to if I can use this forum for rooting/flashing roms...
Also it was bought for use as a pre-paid phone...not sure if there's diff versions of this phone for plan/pre-paid?
anything in this forum, from roms to kernels to rooting methods, can be used on the optimus t
and the phone being prepaid will not make affect the hardware, so no worries about that
Nice! Thank you very much!

Hey, I am new for the Android phones, before my samsung galaxy s2 I had iPhone 4 and things were very simple, now I'm lost in all the terminology and don't know what should I look for in Roms and tweaks. Can some one guide me to some noob Faq tread which will explain the differences in roms andhow can I determine what's best suited for me?
I found the root faq and understood how to install roms, but I can't choose one
Tnx for the help
still need help

If after reading you cannot work out what YOU want then stay with stock until a basic understanding is acquired .
Most users start with the question i want xxx and find a rom to suit rather than ???????????

Hi everyone I am Sean, and I just got my ATT SGS2 Yesterday. I think I followed a rooting guide for the non ATT one. The rooting was successful but my WIFI is down with no MAC Address, also I cannot seem to get any custom rom working.
Is there a way to get the Stock ATT Kernel so I can flash and start over. Is there a rooting guide specificly for the ATT version?
Thanks ahead of time!

If u flashed the wrong kernel, go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294574. Not trying to be mean, but it took me less then a minute of skimming over the Android development section to find this.
Here is the normal rooting guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301682.

Umm, Sorry I wasn't aware I should be looking in the Development section? Since that isn't the right section...?

Please read *before* you post a question. There is a lot of information available on the XDA I777 forums. Please read all the stickies in the general section, as well as the library sticky in the development section. You've been on xda-developers for several years and made many posts, so you *should* know the forum rules. People here will be glad to help you if you do your part first, but if you are looking to have your hand held, you will probably get little help.

Excuse me, I did read. Why would I look in the development section for a troublshooting issue? Please do not post unhelpful comments like that. You obviously can't comprehend the issue fully.

It's just that your questions are already answered in sticky posts in both the general forum and the development forum. I thought it would be better if you wnet and read the answers there rather than taking the time to write the answers all over again.
You clearly didn't read if you went and flashed something not meant for your device without VERY explicit instructions on what is OK to flash and how to flash it.

Actually as I have already explained I did read plenty, I found nothing in the Q&A Section, which is where a solution to a "Question" should be.
And the Guide I followed which was from XDA never once stated that it was only for the International version. Nor did it say it would not work for the AT&T version.
I have been with this community a long time and have never had someone as rude or unhelpful as you. Please do not reply to posts if you are not helping in anyway.
Even though you may have read threads in the Q&A section, a simple search would have pulled up the IMPORTANT threads taht are located in the Dev section that would have answered your questions... and why are they in the Dev section you ask? Because, when flashing anything to your phone like a rom or kernel, its considered DEVELOPMENT and you would have know that if you would have read.
Now go read some more and search. Thread closed.

difference between android development and original development is simple. android development is roms basically with a slap on theme on it and original is well original.
read this thread here for better explanation between the two
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175660
as regarding unlocking bootloaders you do not have to as it is already unlocked..all you have to do is flash a cf-root kernel from chainfires thread.
here are links to help you better
