trouble with "send_command.exe" not working

all the "one click" and even this very good guide won't allow me to root my verizon LG lg-vk815 (lollypop 5.0.2 tablet from verzion 4g lte, 8-core model).

every step goes flawlessly until i need to use "send_command.exe".

i'm running windows 7 ulta x64 on a 8-core 4ghz, 16gb ram; so proc power and RAM are not the issue, but nothing i've tried (5 days @ 4+ hours a day) has worked yet, i've tried using linux VM's, a windows xp VM, a DOS vm, booted a modern version of dos. my next step will likely be trying to do a totally fresh install of windows 7 in a VM and only installing the drivers for the hardware of the computer, the tablet drivers, and the rooting software/directions. i'm so out of ideas at this point, and this is the only device i have that's not rooted already (most only make it a few hours before they are rooted) i find it very surprising that a big company like LG can beat the rooting community at large, or that the tablet isn't popular enough for rooting. from what i can see thus far without root, this is a fine tablet to have and use.

please anyone that can offer any help, i will be very thankful.

Will this rooting delete all my files????
[Android General] doctazz:
If you follow the directions, you won't lose any files. The worst that should happen is that the process will get stuck somewhere, and not allow root to take place. In rare cases, it may brick your phone. Proceed with caution. :)

Lg g4 h815

So this thread has been worked on for a while. I'm one of the late people that got their LG a bit late, but I'm trying to figure out why I continue to get a "FAIL" as the last command sent "sh /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox"

Drivers have been downloaded and installed, cable works, phone has 6.0 Marshmellow and have SDK in tact with my laptop. My laptop sees the phone as a COM # but only when the phone is ON. When put ondownload mode and run "adb devices" it doesn't show my phone being detected. I've reinstalled the driver many times and have started the these steps one by one in order but I think something else is wrong....can anyone help? This would be the 4th day I spend on these forums looking for a solution :eek:
[Android General] PalmCentro:

You have luck that it didn't brick your device.

Moving on...

After opening up the device mgr on my pc and NOT seeing the proper port data I went and got the Verizon software update tool, installed it and suddenly the send_command.exe started to work right. Now I'm stuck at trying to get the tablet to do what needs to on the "download mode" part. I'm going to attach a picture of my command prompt window. The results are the same regardless of which "version" lg root I use.

So here I am again... A little further but still not there just yet, I've also included a picture of the tablet software info. Not sure why it says modified, or if that is even important.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm using my Windows PC to run the commands on the LG vk815 tablet as described in the guides. The problem is that the tablet will not expand or run the root.sh file on the tablet.

[Android General] cecnwv:
Thanks to the devs and all who have had positive input on this thread. I have an extremely bad habit of reading every post of any thread that is of interest to me. Currently I am at an old friend's place and rooting this phone (LG VS810PP 5.1.1) as outlined in the opening post. Unfortunately I'm in a crunch for time and can not read this thread in its entirety so I apologize for asking this question if it has already been addressed.

I have the phone in download mode and connect to pc. It's been awhile now, well over 15 minutes and there is no progress indicated on the phone, The bottom left reads "Modified" in red lettering. The picture in the opening post reads "rooted". Which is correct for the phone to display at this point, Modifies or Rooted?

I don't need an exact estimate but does anyone know how long this model takes to finish the "Firmware Upgrade" ?

Is it OK now to go to the next command which connects to COM4 and then enter the rooting script?

I don't want to risk any missteps or end up using king or kingo unless it's the only solution today. If anyone has experience that I can learn from I'm eager to read your reply. Thanks!

Though I dont' have time to read the entire thread, I have a question. I've just rooted my G3 VS985 using the TOT method to revert the firmware back to 12b first then rooted., Does this method eliminate the need to revert? Not that it was difficult, like many methods, they work as long as you read, watch videos, read again, watch videos again, then follow directions TO THE LETTER (learned that the hard way before).

I'm currently running the brand new Ressurection Remix rom with Android 7.1.1. It's working great so far.

[Android General] LetsHaveSomeAndroidFun:
Same thing happened to me on my VS980. I just unplugged it after two minutes and restarted my phone, the first time nothing changed so I did exactly the same thing again and this time when it rebooted it told me Android was upgrading and now I have full root access.
[Android General] alex_herrero:
But did you get the command feedback on your computer's screen? I didn't get any.
[Android General] LetsHaveSomeAndroidFun:
No, after I entered the last command it went down one line and didn't give me any indication it was doing anything.
[Android General] alex_herrero:
Well, maybe it's the fact that the phone is encrypted, but I'm not getting root, nor supersu installed, nor any feedback from the command, so any suggestion will be more than welcome. Thanks in advance.
[Android General] LetsHaveSomeAndroidFun:
Hmm, that's strange. Did you try the same process twice? Just once didn't do anything for me, not install supersu etc. If you did, I'm not sure, I guess it could be possible it's because the device is encrypted.

wait for 2min then unplug the device and pull the battery and put it back... turn on your device you will see "Android is upgrading" that mean it worked... install "Root Checker" and see...

Here's a Hint. LGLAF.py

"LGLAF.py is a utility for communication with LG devices in Download Mode. This allows you to execute arbitrary shell commands on a LG phone as root."

"Your Milage may vary, I'm not responsible for anything, anywhere, at any time for you and your phone, as it relates to the words and phrases I use on this forum."

Dude! If this method isn't working why don't you remove the thread, or let it be known up at the top that it's not working. The problem with xda is that there are now to many outdated thread that no one gives a cr ap about wasting people time. But that's not even what pissed me off here. You thread author who ever you are have pop-up links that are supposedly required for you're method. So long before realizing that you were wasting my time you jacked up my lap top like a dirty virus spreading azshacker that shouldn't be on xda forums unless th,at's what there about too.
[Android General] seanskiT!:
How about before you do anything to your device you do your due diligence and read and research. Had you read through the forum you could have prevented yourself problems. Take some freaking responsibility for your own actions instead of putting the blame on others.
[Android General] chuckrobinson47:
No.

You need to remove the links you've posted here. They are links to download malicious software under the guise of lg volt rooting software. I think you're whole thread is FALSE. Your intention is not to help anyone root their phone. You have simply cone up with a clever way to get people to keep clicking on these pop up sites that are paying you for every person you can get to there site. Screw you aswhole. Why don't you take responsibility for you're thread, and remove it since you've already confirmed that you don't know schitz about rooting, of installing twrp on the LG VOLT.

If you aren't getting money from those sites you trick people into clicking on, then you have nothing to lose by removing this completely UNINFORMATIVE thread! Correct?
[Android General] seanskiT!:
Yeah, you haven't a clue. Had you took the time to read you would have seen a solution about 3 or 4 posts above your stupid rant. This thread has been active for a long while, things happen. My suggestion for you is to stay stock.
[Android General] chuckrobinson47:
I rooted my LG LS740 LG VOLT with KINGOROOT,

Installed TWRP (on recovery partition, not boot)with the Official TWRP App,

Installed Cm12.1 with TWRP, uninstalled KINGOROOT and use built in root from cm12, then installed Virgin mobile fix zip, and MMS fix. Done. NO PC NECISSARY.

I just offered more information than you have.

You still not explaining why you are linking people to malicious sites.
[Android General] seanskiT!:
You haven't offered anything that I need my G3 has been rooted for close to 3 years and this isn't my thread. Obviously you don't pay very close attention to detail. No where by my name does it have op. And like I said there was a solution about 3 or 4 posts above your first post.
[Android General] chuckrobinson47:
The four posts prior to mine are all talking about the thread's link to a bad popup website that had malware attached to download. You, Seanskeet, aren't paying attention to the details. However you are for some reason paying attention to my comments, even though this isn't your thread. My problem is that this dik is using XDA forum to spread malware. So what dog have you got in the fight? You're a "senior member" . So tell me something. Is XDA A MALWARE SITE? #MALWAREONXDA? forums. This thread doesn't have a "NEW ROOTING METHOD FOR LG" so what reason would senior member Seanskeet have for defending the malware linked thread? This thread is hopefully not a standard example of what XDA is doing. Hacking sites have a hard time building a good reputation.
[Android General] seanskiT!:
My dog in this is the bullsh": attitude that you came in here with. Quit f@#&ing barking orders when you shouldn't even be allowed to comment in a development thread yet.
