I believe you need to install a custom recovery (recommended 4ext). Then flash Superuser to get permanent root.
The answers are here, just need to look carefully. Check out Hansoon's tool.

You seem to be very new to what you are trying to do. Please spend a good amount of time reading and learning before you try and flash anything. All your questions have been answered before, start with the stickies. Once you think you have the procedure down post a detailed breakdown for us to critique.

After you S-OFF and root your Flyer and install a the custom recovery tool (is all described in the S-OFF topics) you:
download a ROM
copy it to the (real ;-) sd-card
go into recovery (reboot with volume-down key hold)
PS. This is the development forum for development
PPS. All this also described in every custom ROM topic, so please search and read before you ask...

we need a how to on Unlocking the bootloader

we need a how to on Unlocking the bootloader... I can not find a concise way to do this. can anyone help I've watch the Youtube video by Adam Outler and i still cant get it to work... I am on Beans1...
Thanks for any help...
Adam just revised his guide (first post of his thread) with even more steps. Also, if you read through the first few pages of the thread, people put exactly what they do.
Between those two and the video, I unlocked in roughly 15 minutes last night.
But please note it assumes a base knowledge of rooting unlocking and the such. Those guides are elsewhere on xda

Watch the video again... I followed it exactly and it worked first time through from Beans1... pm me if you need additional help and I can walk you through the steps I took, but I am in no way a developer, themer, modder, etc... just a guy who loves Android and follows instructions from the guys who pour their heart into this!
Seriously?

Wrong section. I'm still making adjustments and redoing the guide as I go. You need to be rooted first.

odin tries to unzip the .tgz file
ok i tried to use 7-Z file extractor and it will not extract the file to .tar... says the file is broken? the link for the revision3 file goes to revision3repak.tgz is this the correct file?
Odin will do what it needs to do, you don't need to extract it yourself. If Odin doesn't like it, you prob need to re-download the file.

Moving to Q and A.
Check that you have the newest versions... you no longer need to use revision you do have to be rooted though...

[Q] Root Neo V 4.0.4 4.1.B.0.587

Hello guys..
I am new to XDA and new to rooting..
I have unlocked my bootloader..now could anyone help me with a step by step guide on how to root my phone??
Thank You
Seriously man, have you even bothered to check sticky thread's?
This became crazy. It's not even funny any more, people asking questions while answers are already written and even made sticky threads.
Even googling for a "Root Neo V 4.0.4 4.1.B.0.587" which is btw your thread title, gives you XDA thread with instructions..
Sorry for being harsh but this is unbelievable..
YES!!..i have read couple of threads..
a thread by you..but it only shows for locked bootloader..
another thread by vimjam..but it doesn't work..it says extract zip file from recovery mode..how do I enter recovery mode if i havent even rooted..
then there were couple of other threads..but all for different firmwares..nothing for .587

1) read them BETTER, it even says in thread title that it's for locked AND unlocked and even says that it's for that exact firmware which you have,
2) you don't need to be rooted to enter in recovery, since you are on unlocked bootloader, that's why there is kernel which hve CWM,
3) always ask in similar threads instead of creating new threads.
OK..
to start with..
this is your thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690 .... in the root segment for unlocked bootloaders you have posted this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183465 ....but it talks abt NEO only...and shouldnt be the clockworkmod recovery after i root??
Seriously man... These noobs keep spamming the threads... PLz moderators close this thread and take serious actions on such lazy ppl..

It's kernel with CWM recovery only, so it doesn't bring up system at all it boots directly to recovery, so it works for both. Otherwise I wouldn't say it's for Neo and Neo V.
Just follow instructions and everything will be ok.

Btw Lone Wanderer has also provided a noob solution guide!
And it includes. 587 as well!
And as for Madfysh's thread, I am sure his thread has it for sure,if not,the method remains the same! Just requires a bit of a thinking!

I wouldn't say anything if I didn't write "for hoooootboot you can use this kernel: and then link to kernel" and yet you still flashed it instead of hotboot it
I also told you in this very thread: It's kernel with CWM recovery only, so it doesn't bring up system at all it boots directly to recovery
Just flash back stock (or any else) kernel.

Ok i flashed it..but there is just one tiny problem...A stupid friend of mine flashed AOKP while we were stuck in recovery mode...now i flashed some old kernel..but the phone doesnt turn on..it keeps rebooting..so whats the next step?? should i hotboot the kernel from your thread or what??
Sorry for the inconvenience...
First make up, who is doing that phone, you or your friend. Can't be both. Or you will end up in this kind of situation.
Aokp rom, aokp kernel..
Ics rom, ics kernel
Gb rom, gb kernel
Logically, right?
As i said read some basic things. Or things can end up badly..
"A stupid friend of mine"... Im guessing that stupid friend of urs was your brain.. im sorry I couldn't resist..
First thing u need to do is switch off ur phone and put it aside before u hardbrick it and forget about it..
Then goto every single sticky thread and READ..nd then Read again..and again..
Then im pretty sure that stupid friend of urs will come up with a genius solution..
By now u should have realised why everyones askin u to read first..before doin anythin..

[Q] Question about the 'how do i root' thread in the FAQ

Is the link to the thread, how do i root my phone, still valid? Its about a year old and closed, is it still safe to follow? thanks!
Q - How do I root my device / install clockworkmod recovery / install a custom ROM?
A - Follow Binary's thread and make sure you READ IT. If you don't, Binary will put you on his sh*t list! http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1426377

I was on GB when I rooted following these directions. I would use hasoon's too though. This thread basically just explains what his tool it's doing for you. . don't use CWM, use 4ext.

I would recommend taking a look at this thread for the LG-C800, it includes how to root the device, install Clockworkmod Recovery, and some ROM's such as Unofficial Cyanogenmod 9 that you can then flash. Let me know if you still have questions.
Thanks Shimp
that thread doesnt give instructions for rooting it just says to use SuperOneClick to root my device
however I havent found proper instructions for rooting my phone though
or is it simple enough to simply click root while its connected via usb or do I need to enable other options
[maybe go into recovery mode or something?]
thanks for the help
bumpskies for some help :laugh:

For SuperOneClick what you can do is download it from the thread I linked to, then download and install the LG adb drivers in the thread, then make sure USB debugging is enabled in the system settings app either under development options or the applications section depending on the version of android your running. After you have done that you can run SuperOneClick and select the Root option to root your phone. Once the process completes you should be rooted and ready to install a custom recovery and then custom ROM.

After a quick look there doesn't appear to be any new ROMs for the LG-C800, however you can install the old ROMs I linked to previously using Clockworkmod Recovery.
