Hi, newbie here who's rooted only once in the past (Core LTE.. don't laugh) so my knowledge is limited and I really appreciate any help I can receive. I'm looking to root a G7 ThinQ (lm-g710ulm) with software "V20p-LAO-COM".
I'm looking at following the thread by Awesomeslayerg and I think I have all my ducks in a row.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/howto-unlock-bootloader-root-g7s-t-mo-t4077105
But I'm stumped with regards to my software version. I can't find any good information about it on the web.
Is it even a risk? Is the solution simply to change it before doing the steps in the thread ?

I, of course, searched around for the answer to these questions, but didn't find any - here or on the internet.
I spent a long time working on my custom theme/appearance, and have also considered rooting my phone (LG Optimus Sol) in order to be able to customize all aspects of it.
My questions:
1. Theme problem: Like I said, I spent quite a while on my theme, if I root my phone, will my theme and/or widgets be lost?
2. Rooting: I use Gingerbread as OS and would like to know which rooting program is better/safer: Gingerbreak or SuperOneClick?
3. Brick solution: I know the risks of rooting, and I would like to know if there is any chance to un-brick my Sol if the horrible thing happens.
I hope this thread doesn't get ignored. >.<
Have an awesome day.
Thank you in advance for the answers.

Hi guys. Sorry for this, I was unsure where to look. I attempted to ask in a different section but was told to post here.
Here's the problem -
I am stuck with this cell , cannot make calls, connect to wifi, etc. I have read many complaints about this. Basically, I am told by others I need to flash it, and get an upgrade. Currently I am running Android 2.2.2. Sorry guys, I am VERY new to all this. I cannot seem to find any help upgrading it. Of course I cannot do so when attempting via the upgrade option in settings, due to the wifi issue. Can someone please point me in the direction of a tool kit which can be used with Mac OSX?
Also, when I attempt to make calls, I get something like "Reorganizing internal processes"
Software version is currently LGP925 - V10e
If I need to tell anyone anything else about it, can you please let me know? Im so bad with all this, again sorry. I am a recent convert from Windows to Mac. Just not sure how to get the proper tools I need. If I could find them, I can then very easily just follows the steps, which I made a note of.
Thanks so much for anyone who can offer a little assistance.
I suggest you ask in the Optimus 3D forums.
I would give you some links but I don't see P925, only P920 and P920H. Someoen who uses the Optimus 3D will know which version of things is right for you and get you flashed on a newer custom rom. :good:

MUCH appreciated, mate!
Hello there xda, I've been loorking here for a while now but not commenting or creating threads so much.
Now I need someone to clarify me something about LG Versions. I already did some research (with no good results tho, I must s*ck with google and search boxes) so some orientation here would be really appreciated.
Can anyone tell all the version of this phone and its differences?
I know about e970, e973, e975 and e987.
And all I know is that they may have some little hardware differences due to the carrier's decision.
But this brings me to a huuge problem when I'm looking for rooting, recovery methods and flashing roms. It seems that some of this actions can be done with some versions but not with all of them.
Precise question: mine is e987 by "Claro Argentina", so witch methods are compatible with my terminal?

My device software details are attached as a screenshot .Can anyone point me to a correct guide to root this particular device.
Thanks in advance.

What will happen if I flash LG G4's kdz to a g4c device? Sorry, I'm new to this... please tell me if it's possible or not, and if not - why not. I'd be grateful if I get any 6.0 OS for G4c as well.
Don't worry, some say there is no such thing as dumb questions! x)
You found just the right place to get help and gain knowledge about your phone, so feel free to ask anything anytime! =)
To (somewhat) answer your question, in general it is not a good idea trying to put anything somewhere, where it doesn't belong.
There are some exceptions ofc (ie. V10 camera software ported to G4) but as a rule of thumb you should really just stick to the things that are known to be compatible with your phone/hardware.
Else, you might end up with an expensive paperweight ("bricked", in the worst case destroyed beyond repair).
There are different G4 software versions for all the different G4 models, H811, H818P, H815, . . . which are even more or less completely incompatible with each other. You get the idea!
So you probably wouldn't even be able to flash any of those G4 KDZs on a G4c (H255n) device "out of the box" . . .
[edit] but,
I did a quick Google Search and it seems like there is official 6.0 for G4c?!
Here, found a bunch of Marshmallow 6.0 KDZs for G4c http://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h525n-firmwares/
Good luck, have fun and welcome to XDA!
thank you, just got 6.0 on my G4c
Hi! I will upgrade my G4C from 5.0.2 to 6.0 but all the time in LGUP doesn't matter or refurbish or upgrade it's always stopping on 9% after 'retry open dload port'
Any solution?
