I was wondering if anyone had any advice on the next step I should take to root my phone?
I have the a T-Mobile LG Optimus L9 P769 with the following OS; Android 4.04 with Firmware 10g.
I have tried the following methods to root the device....with no luck:
Gingerbreak, root with restore, one click root, recoveryClockWorkTouch, and pretty much most of the others out there.
Is it possible that the phone has some form of modified privileges done before hand?
Is there a specific way to root my phone, or am I missing an essential step?
Please any advise or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.....
Try lelus method of rooting, it works for all firmware n all variants. Check in development section :good:

Use the forum search and you will find the answer. The answer is yes. It will probably take a few tries and it will succeed. Good luck.

You said you are on P769-V10E, then you can root, but never upgrade to V10G and many people are stuck on V10G as they cannot root it and cannot downgrade too.

If i downgrade to v10a i'll lose all my data, right? So, if i decide to do this downgrade, i have to do a backup, i think.
So, in synthesis: Downgrading, rooting and then flashing?
As I know no one who is looking for a root exploit for the job update I will start. So anyone else searching for it please write me a pm as we can team up.
But I find it really important that this thread isn't messed by people saying that they are needing root rights and have lost them because of the update. Everyone knows that and it's just not helpful. I will appreciate all help full contributions.

Only working on xt912 because of the older smart action version...Looks like they have fixed it that's why we can use it as we have the newer version of smart actions and as it is a systemapp we can't downgrade or change to the needed version because you need root for it...

I used lgnpst to return phone to factory state, I was initially rooted and unlocked through freegee. I've received 11c and jb update OTA so I'm assuming my bootloader was relocked but I can't boot into anything as power and vol up do nothing. Can anyone verify lgnpst relocks? Thx

You should be able to use freegee to redo the bootloader unlock. Or use TeenyBin from autoprime's thread. That's the method I used to knock out the required partitions upgrade from the OTA and leave me rooted and unlocked all in one step.

I need to get my phone back to stock rom state. The more I looked around for LGNPST, the more difficult for me to find suitable one for E970. Could you point me to the appropriate download and instructions? I REALLY need this as my radio is messed up and I cannot make any phone calls. Any help is highly appreciated.

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.
