or,and i dont want this to seem as spam or an ad but i have used cheapunlocks.ws in the past and they have been REALLY fast with unlock codes- and yes they said they will be able to unlock this for $14.95... i asked before i purchased one.... They also advertise on ebay.

I found it! here is the link if anyone else needs it http://www.mediafire.com/?vk3xq9m4r4l1392

I'm rooted! But, how do you get into recovery? Can't get in from Rom Manager. Or from holding down power and vol down button.

Um, doesn't he have the download links in the post he links to at the beginning of this thread? I mean, I was able to get it right from here, in mere moments, without resorting to mediafire or any file sharing services.

I followed the directions and downloaded the LG Drivers, but am not sure that I have this rooted correctly. I do have root permissions and superuser and Titanium backup work, but not able to get into recovery. When I click on SuperOneClick the box to root comes up as Samsung Captivate. That can't be right. Is it? Can anyone help with this? Thanks

Um, No. The link was to the SuperOneClick thread and the link provided by that thread does not load.

Did you even bother to read the thread? You're rooted - that means you have superuser permissions. There currently is no way to install custom ROMs on the G2x because it does not have a custom recovery at this time!

Of course I read the thread. I wasn't trying to install a Rom. No need to be rude.

Awwwwwwwww yeah!!! Picking mine up tomorrow! Just what I need.. Another phone. lol

There's no custom recovery yet. You've gone as far as you can for now...

Mine arrived today, and I successfully rooted ! yay!
