LG 2x P990 ICS-stock. Root problem - Please respond - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I've stock updated my LG 2x P990 to ICS 4.0.4 and I've tried for the last 2-3 hours to find 'something' to root my phone, since I'm in love with JellyBean, after hours of searching I found nothing. Please, does someone know/have a guide or something on how to root a 4.0.4 ICS phone? Or, is it possible at all to root ICS at this time?
Simpler put, I have ICS 4.0.4 and I want to flash LG 2x P990 and then put JellyBean on...
Thanks in advance!
Edit:
I have tried SuperOneClick
I have triedUnlock Root
USB debugging is checked
I do have all drivers.

[Q] Software Version

Hi
I recently got my LG P500 which is my first Android phone.
I have to say it's really awesome! Though it took me a whole friggin day to get the custom restore set up, it was well worth it
I am currently running the Void Mod and the new Kernel by mik_os. Both work great!
Now there is only the software version. I have the 10a version and I heard that the 10c (I have it already on my PC) would solve the +001 bug.
My question is: If I update do I have to completely wipe my phone?
Cheers!
don't install the V10C update. it solves 1 bug but brings home many.
you should wipe your mobile. anyway everything will get deleted. so wipe as a precaution so nothing.
PS: also depends which country rom you talking about. cause different rom solves different problems & offers new ones.
I am talking about the european 10c
So just to clarify: When I install the 10c (or 10a for that matter) I will always delete my custom rom, kernel, loose root and will have to do it all again from scratch?
Is it expected that Gingerbread will come with a new software version or is that a LG problem?
V10C cannot be rooted. So don't install/upgrade to this version.
How come it cannot be rooted? I thought impossible is nothing?
So lets rephrase my question to 10a...
When I install the 10a I will always delete my custom rom, kernel, loose root and will have to do it all again from scratch?
Thx

Root my LG Optimus S LS670?

I have a To Root my LG Optimus S LS670, its a plain one.
Here's my information:
Model Number: LS670
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: LS670MVJ_6150
How do I root it?
It's been upgraded by LG already to 2.3.3, and I can't find anyway to root it.
SuperOneClick, GingerBreak or this.
Luck!!
I have this phone and gingerbreak worked then the next week the phone updated and i cannot get it to root now.
hheeeelllppppppp!!
Yea I can't get this phone to root when it's been updated to the LS670MVJ baseband every root method I can find is for the older baseband versions

This thread should help, I had to downgrade to ZVH using stock recovery, then use the optiauto CLI tool to root and install Xionia CWMA recovery. Root, radio and gingerbread works, but radio flashed with a Froyo downgrade is not legacy compatible with ZVJ. It's worth noting that while CM7.2 or 9 can be flashed from Xionia, you shouldn't do this before having all necessary files/drivers from the froyo, gingerbread and cm9 images, and CM9 flashed LS670s cannot be activated on Sprint.

Did you ever get this rooted, I was just given my brother in law's phone and phone number and I was going to use the phone as a media player but wanted to root to remove sprint crap or put a custom rom on.

I cannot go into too much detail since I spent hours on it and forgot and renamed a lot of stuff.

Hey, so I just got an LS670 (LG Optimus S) from a friend to replace my current phone. Not sure how it will go since I have an old SERO account.
Anyways, I had some time off and would recommend to you update flashing your baseband to ZVH. Turn on usb debugging from the applications/development from settings and use stay awake option.Use Sons Of Korhal 1.0.1 to root it. Update to ZVJ using its appropriate update.zip. Then use OptiAuto (aka OptiAuto-sfx) if its the new enough version will allow you to root the zvj baseband. Some of these files are hard to find, took me 3 hours total in trial and error.

and this one: forums.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-s-rooting-roms-hacks/131297-how-rooting-ls670zvd-zvh-100-automated-zvj-automated.html
optiauto for windows might be this one, you'll need it: mediafire.com/download/dsblck8764079q0/optiauto-sfx.exe

Root lg l3 e400b

I couldn't find very much info when I rooted this phone. It turns out that you can use Superoneclick v 1.7. I included a link.this may work for other E400 models aswell.

LG Optimus G E975 Helpp

hi to all, i am using lg optimus g e975 Korean in Pakistan. android 4.1.2 installed on it. now i want to upgrade it to higher version. I tried LG Support Tools, it find an upgrade foe my cell phone but after downloading a large file when it start upgrading process and my phone goes into downloading mod it gave error that please remove your battery and then insert it again and then try again... i tried many time but same error.. i actually want to upgrade my android software to kitkat 4.4 is it possible? if possible then what is the best and safe way to upgrade my lg optimus g e975... thanks ..
There's no official Kit Kat for your phone. You would have to use a custom rom like CyanogenMod or something along those lines. The LG Support Tools sucks. You should try using this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498102
I gave you the link to the latest KDZ (official firmware) for the Indian version in your other thread. I'm also not sure if many custom roms support the language you are looking for either. Basically you would want to root (Safe Root or Framaroot should work) then use FreeGee to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery. Then boot to recovery, backup rom, and wipe, and install new one.
