I hav ea problem here please someone reply quickly............i was finally able to root myu phone with Doomlords easy root, cause for some reason SOC would not work for me....i installed rom manager, installed cwm successfully, downloaded kernels .4 rom, made a backup of my stock, clicked install rom through rom manager, installed kernel .4 successfully, allegedly, and now my phone is boot looping...i have the nitro hd p930 at&t version. the only thin im able to accomplish here is go into download mode.....im holding the vol down as i turn on phone but it will not go into recovery...what do i do???????


update...........

for some reason......recovery decided to wield its head, i was able to successfully flash the kernel rom and boot up no prob...i was ready to pee and cry in a corner..for real

recovery is hit or miss.
try MULTI-TIME, like maybe 10 times or 20 times.

I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but I went to flash HO!NO!'s rom using this new CWM and when I searched for the .zip to flash on my sdcard, it showed a garbled folder name and clockworkmod, but when I put the .zip in the clockworkmod folder it couldn't find it. I found this rather odd, so I looked at my phone's /sdcard folder in adb and did an ls and it showed all sorts of file io problems and garbled folder names. When I mounted the phone on my computer in this CWM, everything looked fine, though. Does anybody know what could be causing this?

I ended up reflashing bytecode's CWM because it actually works for me with using the manual commands. I'm just really glad I didn't reformat my /system partition before I verified that I could flash the new rom...

lg nitro what beautiful phone but lg nitro you give so many of us headaches...always something new you pull out of your dirty pocket of tricks

LG NITRO-N XDA APP

So is manual root the best way to go or should i try SOC now? bricked the **** out of first phone, went to bell and they handed me a new phone that i havent touched yet. now that there is working CWM i want to know best way to start. Wont be able to get another hand out from bell so i cant mess this one up.

This is exactly what I did


From untouched phone (had to replace my first nitro because I bricked it)

1. Root phone
2. Download Rom Manager from Android Market
3. Use Rom Manager to install CWM
4. Back Up Untouched Rom
5. Use Rom manager to install Kernalpan1c's rom
6. Enjoy

There are steps 7-9 in there, but I am not allowed to talk about them yet.

This is my first Android phone, does this mean we can just install ROM Manager and hit "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery" and have it? Is it really that simple, like the one-touch Jailbreak on some iPhones?

So I turn my phone off, turn it on, when it gets to lockscreen do Zergrush, download ROM Manager, and hit "Install Clockwork Mod"?

Here is what I did to root:

I had USB debugging and Unknown sources enabled on the phone before running SuperOneClick. Also make sure you have the latest version.

Here is the link to developers site:

So to summarize:

1. Run SOC to root the Nitro HD
2. Install ROM Manager
3. Flash CWM through ROM Manager
