Am I missing something or is no one working on a automated root method or a simple one click method for the latest jelly bean release?
It seems as though the current method of the unlocking the bootloader is not working even after following the directions to the letter. Basically, it fails to unlock everytime.
Edit: this appears to be a known issue in the only way to resolve it is to mail it in to Asus.

Has anyone found a way to root a thunderbolt with version 1.70.605.0?
I believe the manual method still works on that. Haven't seen anything different.

works like a charm

Without the unlocked bootloader all you get it temp root. So, unless you want to do an ADB temp root on your device while running pre-release firmware, you're kinda outta luck on that front. Do you have an issue with unlocking the bootloader we should be aware of?
I just upgraded to Jelly and would like to unlock and root my tablet. This would be my first time tampering with my tablet. I only have experience rooting my EVO and Rezound following the instructions. So I was wondering if Vipermod works with Jelly bean. Thanks.

hey, unfortunatly neither vipermod nor debugfs is working in JB atm..
if you didnt protect your root with rootkeeper while on ics, youll have to wait for a new root method

I have followed the directions to the letter. It won't root. Any ideas?
Is your build number 11c? If it is you can LGNPST back to stock 10o and then root. Or if you look around I saw a method that can root 11c.

I had the same prob with a new replacement lgog the other day and used the lgnpst method. All worked fine after that.

Got it rooted. Nocturnal ROM installed, but the AT&T apps are still there. I thought that ROM deleted them. Everything else is right. I used version 1.5.

Hi Torquerules, I'm curious if you actually use lgpnst to downgrade to 10o first or you're using that newer root method that can root straight from 11c ?
I rooted straight from 11c. I will have to search for the root method I used. It was easy.

Actually, I think it was this one. I downloaded and tried so many, I can't remember...

Thanks. I just wanted to confirm that this method work straight from 11c.

The universal root for optimus g works with jb update . Just read the instructions
Yes, the one it the link above works like a dream.
I can't find any sources on rooting the jelly bean version of the wind mobile lg optimus l9, the only source I found was one for the Canadian ICS version. Is it possible to root it or am I stuck with the stock LG rom?
You can use cydia or vroot (literally Google vroot). However, even one you have rooted the phone, you will have to unlock the bootloader to be able to use the custom ROMs you find the Android development forums. To do this I recommend using kuma82's method. But you will need quite a bit of spare time as it is a lengthy process and you may not be successful on your first attempt.

Hey all. Finally decided to root my one. Does it make sense to wait for it's kitkat ota update and then root ? Would this change any of the steps in the root process?

You should wait, if you root you can download a Rom that is 4.4.2. But things like WiFi calling doesn't work.
Go ahead and root. After a official 4.4.2 is released someone will put out a custom ROM that will already have root as well so why wait

Yes s-off that might be patched until a new exploit like gustav said and also imo a custom recovery to have some fun and trying out a few custom roms while you wait for an update just remember to use the update you need a locked bootloader and IIRC you need a stock recovery both not hard to get (someone plz correct me if im wrong about recovery)
Thanks guys I rooted but have been having trouble getting some tethering apps to work I think my kernel is write protected? Can anyone recommend a rom that has cool customization stuff and is also good with tethering?

Edit - I flashed insertcoin and the tethering works great.
