Ok, so I wanted to root the LG Optimus G, UGH!!! Well I'm hunting for a .exe that was a nice one click for rooting but I can't find it. If anyone can find it PM ME.
Ummm... I have to ask... Did you even look around the forums before posting this? Unfortunately, the methods you'll find in the post below are more complex 19-click methods
Try the very first stickied post in the Sprint Optimus G Android Development forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho... 4-14-13- ROOT, UNLOCK- zvb/jb, zv9, zv8, zv7
Yeah I looked around my brother had a one click.

Well we have an almost one click, you just need to do the prompted actions whilst running the program.

dont mean to sound like a ****, but can anyone give me and ETA?
im a complete noob when it comes to the current root process and im much more familiar with the APK process, like the one with the MT3G.
so can any devs give me an ETA?
sorry to sound like an asshole
As far as I know, no one is developing a "one click" apk to root.

Correct. My policy: if you're unable to follow the simple directions currently used to root the Espresso, you have no business rooting your handset in the first place. Great root comes with great responsibility. Having a little background knowledge should be a prerequisite.
Moved to Q&A, please don't post question threads in Development.

It may be supported on future universal androot apks but I doubt it to be honest

Ohhhh you can soft root with the new version of universal androot.

Isn't that explained in the S-OFF status thread that is stickied in the dev forum? It says once they get the S-OFF working 100%, they'll attempt to apk it to hide how they did it, only so official phone devs don't use it to make it harder to root on future phones... or somethin like that.
Yeah they should so they can't make them harder to be rooted indeed

I dont want to ask questions that have already answered and have searched the forum so hopefully noone has discussed this yet.

Is that website legit? Has anyone tried it? Just got my G2 and don't want to brick it with a dumb easy way out...although it looks tempting. Ive never tried to gain root access on the g2 and by the looks of the tutorials, its a bit more complicated than my former g1 and vibrant!
ANy suggestions??
Yea also curious.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I'm not sure what to think of that.
But, I do know that the safest and absolute best way to root your g2 is in the wiki.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
The reason you don't find any info on it here in XDA is because its boogus and all post with it in it have been deleted by MODs, they want you to do survey and then can't root your phone, do not use this, its not legit, I would erase the link.

The easiest way I did mine was from xda it was the visionary temp root and perm root with gfree pretty simple

All the info is in the wiki here. That looks a somewhat dodgy site. There's no need to be filling in surveys - everything is here and for free in wiki
Hey now.
I offer guidance/support rooms and themes for a phone that is not in xda's list.
First thing I did was try to find my device (LG ms910) in the phone list.... and she is not in there.
I imagine other people may be looking for support/mods/etc for this phone which is not easily found on xda's forums.
So the big question... "can this phone be added to xda's support list? If not, what is the best way to go about sharing my work and opening discussions on pertaining to the LG MS910 (Esteem)
Thanks in advance
Dover (xda noob, sorry)

You can always post your stuff in
Miscellaneous android developement section if your device is not listed here. That is the best place to share your work.
You can request a separate forum for your device if developement goes high.
And sorry for yesterday's misunderstanding, you language was foul, better take care next time. And oh, welcome to xda, yesterday's welcome was not so good

Hope people can find it, not having a device to search on.

Yes,
And oh boy did you post in the wrong section. Questions are for the QA thread. This is strictly for Android development, as in if you've developed something (Roms, Kernel, Scripts, ETC)
Also, if you have ported the apks they'll go into the app section.

Come on guys..if you dont want to add anything just dont comment and ignore it..
am a developer as well and still sometimes after extensive searches things are no clear..
no need of being a smart ****
From what I read till now on this forum, there are big diferences on how v500 is partitioned and how is v510 partitioned. So the answer is no you not could install GPE rom on v500. Until now...only option fot kitkat is custom roms

We may get it eventually but as for now conversion does not occur.

Nice spamming 2 posts to tell the OP not to spam. Wouldn't answering the question be easier and less spamming?

Look up the definition of spam.
The op is the one not using proper etiquette and breaking forum rules.

Being polite and considerate doesn't cost you anything. Having new people turned away by comments such as yours does not promote the good will of xda, and gives a sense that it is forbidden to ask any questions at all.
Simply stating an answer to the question with a sidenote that there is another place to ask such questions would be prefered.
And, It IS ambiguous as to whether or not it is possible to convert the system.
While there are numerous threads here talking about it and stating such, you would not want to simply download some rom based on the wishes of others to make it happen before it's time. For somebody new, the threads that have such discussion may very well look like they have it converted and ready to go, where others state the opposite.

Isn't this section called "q and a HELP and troubleshooting"? I am posting my legitimate question in the proper section because of how vague the other posts have been. Those who aren't willing to help, why post? Is it really ruining your day to glance over a question? Instead you waste your precious time trying to beat your chest on the internet. Thanks have been given to those who were helpful. I appreciate you clearing up the issue.

I have a LG V500 as well(coming from Nexus 10) and after looking at all(well most) of the threads, it is not clear which for me
means the answer is NO(or we would have had a definitive guide to do that ).
For now, I am looking for the most stable custom rom with least issues. CM or Mahdi atm
Mahdi works great and has a lot of options.
If you have AOSP you have CyanogenMod, CarbonROM, AOKP, ParanoidAndroid, SlimROM.. all of which have every feature of AOSP + the same looks as AOSP + extras.
GPE is cool if you're not a rooting custom ROM kind of person in which case you should have just purchased a GPE G-Pad to have stock AOSP

It's not even worth it anymore, dude. Members of XDA have huge ego and pride issues and it doesn't seem like it's going away any time soon.
I agree, there is no reason for the hostility. Politely answer the question and let him/her know to search next time. One more thread asking the same question isn't going to break the internet but people don't understand that.. they'd rather be know-it-all assholes.
Honestly, you are better off getting v500 And installing custom kit Kat. This way you can switch back to lg if you prefer it.

Best advise, gives you more options. As it is the v500 gets more support. I wish the device was more popular but I'm still grateful for what we have.
