[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] autoprime:
IOroot

IOroot was originally a Windows script to root the LG G2 on 4.2.2 made by IOMonster... based on the original adb backdoor found by GiantPune and later posted by jcase.

The script has grown to support various other LG devices on Android 4.0 - 4.4.2... 4.4.2 kk_root.zip by autoprime. Current IOroot25r1 by autoprime.

Supported devices include LG Optimus G, G2, G3, G Pro, G Pro 2, G Flex and G Pad just to name a few.

4.4.2 root will NOT work for you if you cannot get into the stock recovery menu w/the "adb reboot recovery" command.

Check the supported devices list below. You may have to downgrade to 4.2.2 or below and root that instead.

Or your device may not be supported at all. Again.. check the supported device list below.

Current Version - IOroot25 refresh 1

Download IOroot zip, extract and run script to root. ADB must be enabled (USB Debugging ON).

REBOOT AFTER STEP #13
[/SIZE]

v

Automated .bat/.sh Directions:

Download latest ioroot.zip. Unzip and run bat/sh. Follow the onscreen instructions.

4.4.2 is rooted through stock recovery. Once in recovery use volume keys to select "update with adb" then hit the power button... then continue with the script.

4.4.2 users will see DAT ROOT when finished rooting. Reboot phone. Done.

Windows:

Download and install proper ADB driver. Enable USB Debugging. Double-click on root.bat

Linux:

cd into /IOroot/ folder

chmod +x root.sh

./root.sh

Mac:

cd into /IOroot/mac/ folder

chmod +x root.sh

./root.sh

Windows Drivers:

Drivers for everyone else - HERE

EFS Backup:

EFS is automatically backed up for all 4.2.2(and below) devices.

EFS is backed up into the ioroot folder on your computer. If running ioroot on mac.. it'll be in the ioroot/mac folder.

Store backed up EFS partitions somewhere safe.

4.4.2 devices will not have automatic EFS backup.

Use the commands below to backup EFS.

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modemst1 of=/sdcard/modemst1.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modemst2 of=/sdcard/modemst2.img

Not Working?

If you are on 4.4.2 and cannot get into a stock recovery menu with adb reboot recovery then you CANNOT root 4.4.2 on your device.

You must downgrade to 4.2.2 with stock tot or kdz, retain root and take OTA updates to 4.4.2

OR

downgrade to 4.2.2 and install custom recovery and manually upgrade your way to 4.4.2 by flashing a KK rom + modem.

Make sure to read all of the scripts on-screen text or you may miss something. Hitting a button when it's not time to do so or not reading everything on screen can cause problems. Make sure the phone is unlocked with the screen on whenever possible as well.

If the scripts fail for you check out the manual directions further down the page. The manual method is only a few ADB commands and can help if I've messed up in the scripts somewhere... or if the scripts just don't seem to be working for you. Taking it one step at a time manually almost always results in success.

Still not working?

I need the output from the 4 ADB commands below along with IOroot version and if it was on Windows/Linux/Mac. Any errors you come across would help as well...

adb shell "getprop ro.product.model"

adb shell "getprop ro.build.target_operator"

adb shell "getprop ro.lge.swversion"

adb shell "getprop ro.build.fingerprint"

What's Next?

Confirm full root with rootchecker. ( [MENTION=1477081]joeykrim[/MENTION] )

Support a great dev by buying the Pro version.

If you only did the "temp root/adb only root" then you can confirm root by opening adb shell and seeing # instead of $.

For custom recovery(TWRP/CWM) on 4.2.2 and below run FreeGee ( [MENTION=2413393]Shelnutt2[/MENTION] )

Check out the FreeGee donate version if you want to support a great dev.

For custom recovery(TWRP) on 4.4.2 run AutoRec by [MENTION=270378]Cloudyfa[/MENTION] for a safe and easy install.
