root problems

I finally got mine done. Went with a one click option that I found on youtube. It truly was a one click (well actually two) and it immediately gave me root priv. At any rate, download Titanium and then "freeze" the bloatware that you don't want. This way also prevents them from hogging cache and RAM. But, it doesn't trigger the commie Verizon bootloader locks. As of yet, ODIN does not support this device, but gooManager does. Haven't tried to flash yet, but it's downloaded and just sitting there....I'm afraid to pull the trigger. I wish I could remember the link...I typed "how to root android 4.0.4" and it was like the third or fourth option. I tried and tried and tried JCase's method, but got caught in the shell because it wouldn't verify lgroot.sh file was in place. It was. Looking forward to developing. Im in IT in college as a non-trad so expect a lot of questions you guys.

What is that lockout app? I'd like to do the same on my rooted vs950 just to ensure nothing I do bootloops it.

LG intuition Root 4.04 Help!

Can someone help me root my LG VS950 its been updated to 4.04 and I can't get it rooted using Bin4ry or Jcase suggestions so for... Others said it works with the 4.04 update, I just can't figure out what I may be doing wrong... when it gets to the reboot part and ask me to hit restore it starts and stops I about 5 seconds and nothing happens.. I added a pic of what it said when I tried to root using bin4ry method.. hopefully one of you can decipher this for me and help me find a solution...

P.S. and to be clear what USB connection type do I select (MTP, PTP, Internet Connection, or Charging) after I turn debugging mode on. and do I need to factory reset before I root?

Any other minor tid-bits would also be helpfull thanks..

Thanks in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkbreazeale:
Here is how you fix it.

Power up the phone holding Power, Volume Up and Volume Down until Download Mode appears on the phone.

Connect the phone with the usb cable to the computer.

Use the LGMobile Support Tool and go to Customer Support -> Recovery Phone.

Follow the onscreen instructions from there.

This will download and reload your phone. Takes about 30 minutes total. All data will be lost.

Hopes this helps people.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peter Bishop:
Does this have anything to do with rooting the phone? Your response was @ no one in particular so i wanted to be sure before followed your directions
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkbreazeale:
This is when you root it and you delete bloatware that it doesnt like. When the phone restarts and it shows that there is a Security Error, Can not find morningcall meaning a soft brick. The method that I gave gets your phone back up and running. It does wipe the phone so be prepared.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamdroidman:
It shows the device connected and then I get an error when it is checking the information. It validates the esn, cell phone number, then right before it errors out it says its looking for LG PC-sync software. All drivers are installed. Any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullriders:
I successfully got mine rooted but Bricked on restart due to Vz security software. I posted Step by Step restore in case of brick.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enzojrc:
This method just does not want to work for me......I chose all rooting options and it keeps saying it can't mount, and file does not exist. I will try to post a screen shot when I get home but it is very similar to Peter Bishop but I am not even getting the prompt to add busy box, it says "confirm backup", "confirm restore", and then reboots and says it is done....but Root Checker says the device is not rooted. I am trying this on V31 of the root program.

Here is what is hangs on:

Device type:

1) New Standard-Root <thx Ariel Berkman>

2) New Xperia Root by Goroh_jun <Xperia Z, XperiaV [JellyBean] ...>

3) Old

4) Old-Special <for example: Sony Tablet S, Medion Lifetab>

G) Google Glass Mode <thx Saurik for the ab file>

x) Unroot

Make a choice: 1

Please connect Device with enabled USB-Debugging to your computer

Doing a back up first, please confirm this on your device!

Now unlock your device and confirm the backup operation.

Done!

Press any key to continue.....

Please select RESTORE MY DATA option now on your device!

Now unlock your device and confirm the restore operation.

Please press any key when restore is done.

Press any key to continue..

Going to reboot now....

press any key to continue...

Going to reboot last time now....

You can close all open command-prompts now!

after reboot all is done! Have fun!

so yeah....it does this for all options......

Has anyone used the Xposed framework app for this device yet? I have been looking into it and want to know how well it works before I try it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stance works:
the xposed install works and runs great I love love love,the Instagram downloads I dislike using the repost app because I don't always want to post a photo or video I snatch off someones account,another thing I love is the black list feature,i keep getting irrated phone calls and this app takes care of just that same issue. There are several things you can use and try out on the xposed installer :-

I know you can decompile systemUI and change the order, add, subtract toggles from the notification pull down. Does anyone know if you can add things like wifi direct? It'd be kinda of nice instead of shuffling through settings. Or even add in a flashlight toggle?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Eyalkn:
Wifi direct

It will be nice to have Wifi direct toggle. In TW JellyBean you can always long press the Wifi icon in the notification bar and it will get you inside the Wifi menu and then you can choose Wifi direct from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tallgrasshawk:
I wanna bump this. I had kinda forgotten about this, but being snowed in the last couple days, I've been playing around and would still like to know if we could add new options in the stock notifications toggles.

Hi!

I really don't know ...I think about if it worth ....

For me I will do, but not sure if I will share with you , because these Custom Roms does not seem to be appreciated !

( as long as they have been downloaded over 500 times ( Clean_Slim&Fast ) - and is appreciated, as you can see only 20 people - I still think about !!! )

Good luck ! :good:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] BrateloSlava:
By the way, is not all your users download the firmware from this server. There must register to download.

That's why I made ​​a copy to other file-sharing server.

According to a survey on the Russian forum 4pda.ru of users TF300, JB@Overclock is one of the leaders.

I know that many people are changing their firmware (for example, Hydro ROM) to your JB@Overclock.

So, I think part of the Russian-speaking users waiting for new versions of your firmware.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] pwachleman:
So, because not enough people say thank you you aren't going to update your two biggest contributions? I just now added my thank you but have commented many times in the forum on how good your work is. Ive been running v02 overclock for several weeks and very pleased with it. I don't think its really fair to judge your users just because they don't hit the thank you button. Just my two cents.

Today I'll release Stock Firmware 10.4.2.14 SU - deodexed, root & busybox already installed ( ...also with init.d support ! ) - only for TF30T !

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] surdu_petru:
Hi !

This is not a "Rom" ....If you need to root the last update Asus Firmware 10.4.2.17 , you need to flash on recovery this archive ( see first post ! )

I hope you understand now ! Good luck ! :good:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ricardowec:
Surdu , don't agree with you.. Your Roms are good only need a bit more of features.

Soon your Roms will be the only stock based Roms in the 300 thread. I don't install it because I have to register. Also, your Roms are WW based and I personally need a US base.

Please, go on. You are good!!
