doesn't work on LG F460

to whom may concern.

My G3 is korean version F460. I tried the root tools few minute ago and failed.

Here's the error message.

-------------------------

Your phone is a [ LG-F460K ] on [ KT ] running SW version [ V10i ] ...

Alright. We're ready to go. We're going to temproot your phone first. Press enter when you're ready!

Press [enter] to continue...

Rebooting phone...

Waiting for device... .. Found device!

Found device, checking if vulnerable...

Yep, performing temproot...

Waiting for system to settle...

Temproot worked, all done here. Moving on...

Alright, now that you're temprooted, you can press CTRL-C here and get

a temproot prompt through 'adb shell /temp/fakesu' if you're so inclined...

However, if you'd like to permaroot, let's continue.

Press [enter] to continue...

Waiting for device... Found device!

Applying permaroot...

Waiting for system to settle...

Checking if it worked...

ERROR: Something went wrong. Permaroot doesn't appear to have worked, rebooting phone.

So, we temprooted your phone, but we weren't able to permaroot it for some reason.

Please post on XDA with your phone model, carrier, and SW version in the PurpleDrake thread and someone will take a look.

Your phone has been rebooted back to normal system mode, no changes have been made. Thanks for trying!

Try clicking on the link instead of Copy/Paste. The link doesn't fully show in the thread so if you copy/paste it you will have issues.

Try to dis-connect and/or go to settings related to connection on your mobile (after connection click on notification). Something similar happened recently to me. (assuming you have USB debug. enabled and installed all drivers...).

If it's not working, try another way to root - http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906

I was told by someone that they were able to root their g pad using purple drake. Is this possible for the LG-V410? I could not find any other solution for rooting the g pad 7.0 so I'm really hoping this is possible. :thumbup:
[G3 Android Development] californiarailroader:
It worked on my V410, and several others on here have had it work for them too, so it's definitely possible.

I have one question: ilI only want root for fixing the sd card and to get rid of the publicity.

However, i don't want to loose ota updates.

With this method will work ota? I case not, would it be enough to use the unroot option of the supersu app?

Thanks!!
[G3 Android Development] nycmon:
ok purple drake is asking me to turn on the usb debugging option on my v410 tablet. Can anyone tell me where i can turn this option on? it doesn't seem to be under the applications menu like on my g3

update: never mind i figured it out lol
[G3 Android Development] KingOfDope:
Go into Settings>About Phone>Software Information>tap "Build number" multiple times until it says that you're a dev

now go back into settings and search for "Developer option" (It is mostly on the bottom or at General if you're in tab view)

And click on "USB debugging"
[G3 Android Development] nycmon:
I figured it out already but thanks for that bro...

Also rooting the lg-v410 was hella easy with Purple Drake...

Kudos devs :thumbup::thumbup:

Hi all,

Have anyone problem with GPS fix after root on LG G3s D722? The fix is much worse then before root, I try it with girlfriend's non-rooted D722 and she had fix about 5-10 sec. On my rooted D722 I have fix about 1 minute, but with less satelites. Anyone have an idea, how to fix it? I tried utility FasterGPS, bud didn't help. Will me help factory reset? In other words, clear factory reset my rewrited information from faster gps and remove my root? Or have anyone link to stock ROM to flash? thank you so much.

After your info I decided to test this on LG G3 with Swedish Three and versione 10J. It worked just fine!

The very best part is I now could use NextApp and gain control over my external card.

Feels like I got my phone back from Google (morons and invaders of privacy). So THANK you for this.

And thank you NextApp for your very simple to use "SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD".

I am rooted with 10h and i am a happy "customer"

I just got the message for the L upgrade.

I rooted with purple drake method.In case the update procedure continues, will i still be rooted after the upgrade to 10L ?

Is it safer to perform through lg suite a restore , then upgrade to L and finally root the phone again ?
[G3 Android Development] strix75:
You can not OTA update if you are rooted.

Why can I not get a computer to find my device? I've tried this on both windows and Linux and the programme never finds it. USB debugging is checked and my phone it in PTP mode but it's just stays on "waiting for device" :confused: :(

*edit*

Ok, I've got it past the first part but now when it restarts my phone it gets stuck on the "waiting for device" after my phone restarts :confused:

*edit 2*

I tried doing it manually. After typing "adb reboot --bnr_recovery" my phone restarted but after typing "adb push ./assets/start_restore /temp/start_restore" I get "error: insufficient permissions for device". Is this what's stopping the programme from working as it's at the same point that neither method is working.

I'm on v10L by the way.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Just updated (OTA) from V10H-EUR to V10L-EUR, no problems occurred, I still have root acces. I was running Xposed with G3 TweaksBox, KeepChat and Snapshare, so that shouldn't be a problem for all of you that are worried about losing root by OTA updating to V10L-EUR.
[G3 Android Development] 500L:
I was rooted with this method in version i. Yesterday I've updated to version l and rooted again without need to wipe anything.

Steps:

1-Disabled Xposed

2-Unrooted using SuperSU (It doesn't performs a full unroot). Uninstalled SuperSU.

3-Tried to upgrade using OTA, but at the first reboot I get the message that my phone is rooted.

4-Installed LG PC Suite and selected option in Menu Phone --> "Repair update errors". It does a full unroot without wipe any data. This option updated the phone to version l without problems.

5-Rooted again version L with PurpleDrake using the script. Permaroot.

6-Installed again SuperSU, updated binaries (normal) and installed SuperSU into system. I get root again :)

Hope that this helps!
