1st of all, wrong sub-forum. In development forum, there must be devlepoment. There is a forum specially for q&a. Not only that, but there is a whole forum for at&t.

Enabled USB debuggingon the phone before running the root tool?
Also, root only works on the 10c firmware I beleive. Some of the newer devices seem to be coming with newer firmware and you'll need to downgrade that in order to obtain root.

[Q] Rooting a LG Optimus L7 v10j

I saw this topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895472) and I installed the v10j firmware on my LG p705. Sucess. But i can´t root it, just because I only can see de img extracted form .kdz file on the folder when it got´s locked and start to be used to flash... Is there a way to create a kdz file with this modified system.img.ext4 ? What can I do to be more lucky to root this phone?
Thanks!

The computer should just have LG drivers installed.Run the script and select the 2nd option-special. Don't forget the two lines when the phone boots the 2nd time.Read the thread thoroughly ,this tool works,it worked for me with same version 10j.
Use this modified one

Edit- it should have supersu try to use rootchecker or titanium back up find out

Hey,
I tried that old-school a lot of times and finally I could root it. When I saw "lg keyboard has stoped", I really knew that finally worked. The strange thing is that the system haven't came with a superuser app, so I installed "superuser".
Btw, thanks for helping. Around 0:30 (gmt -3) thr procedure got sucess, just few before your post. I thanked both your posts!

Looks like the devs are having trouble to unlock the bootloader, and thats why we dont have great roms like cyanogen for our phones. I hope that they can unlock it, not only for cm10, but overclocking tools too...

Seems like its complicated, at times we appear too close then again too far,does it mean the fellows at LG managed to lock their device in a manner that no one can find out ?

Maybe because of L7 isn´t a "best seller" cell phone, we have less developers to this cell phone... If Optimus was like a Galaxy SII, surely would have been unlocked...
I´m just waiting to the Jelly Bean update. I was a little lucky that my model isn´t from Brazil (brazillian model is p705f, with a very old actual firmware, like v10c), so I can put p700 or p705 newest firmwares, but i´ts a bit boring that we can´t go ahead in that phone customizing..

Problems rooting my xperia ion! Acces denied...

Hello fellow xda'ers !
I recently tried to unlock the bootloader for my XPERIA ION and I think I managed to do it. It rebooted in a "new" state so everything I had was gone. Not sure if that's what's supposed to happen?
Well, then I tried to root with the "bin4ryv18" runme.bat.
It goes fine until it keeps on running ,so something went wrong...
Also when using another program, it says it "failed on data/local/tmp permission denied".
I don't know how I should continue from here? I'm quite a noob when it comes to this.
Do I flash something first ?

Yes but insn't that an early version? I just flash the file with the command "flashboot...kernel.elf"? And after that i'll be able to root it?
If so, can i then update to a newer version?

Honestly I don't know, because I don't have an Xperia Ion. I don't want to say yes or no because if i'm wrong you phone could get bricked. But a similar question is asked in that thread and just wait for someone to answer it.

I'm new at this rooting stuff, but I've been all over Google & YouTube I have not found a root that works on my phone. I don't have a USB cord so I'm having to root it by my phone. I have an at&t huawei u8800-51 its running on 2.2.2, I've tried to z4root but I read it won't work with 2.2.2 I've tried and no use, I also tried gingerbreak & I went through the process but it just keeps rooting for like ever. I don't know what to do. I've been trying for days at this. If someone could help me, I will love you forever! Ugh.

With the info you have given..........
Are the drivers installed on computer?
Are you running as administrator?
Which version of Odin?
My guess is the 2nd one. Super easy to miss.

There was a time or two where my drivers would not install. But I disconnect and reconnect or returned to stock and connect to computer and they would install.
2.3.6 ??? You should have upgrade to JB
