Have you tried disable?
sent from my locked rooted P769 v20f
I'm on YouTube (BioDesigner48)
You're able to disable it, but that's it. If you root you can "quarantine" them and it's sort of a more powerful form of disabling. It stops them from ever starting up again and saves a ton of memory, RAM and physical. Now, why would you not want to root? Why not use the LGPwn?
Because if I root the phone I void the warranty and void T-Mobiles Jump program and would have to pay full price. I only got this phone because my HTC Sensation no longer works and I needed a phone to hold me over until a phone came out that I actually wanted.
You can just as easily unroot, lol.

Rooting is not like unlocking the bootloader.

If you carefully follow directions, then it's never really scary.
One click root apps are pretty old now, they don't work on newer devices, so you'll probably have to "get your hands a little dirty" of you want to root

Probably, just don't pay too much. I'd say $15 is MAX, really don't want to get ripped off. Also, make sure you have some sort of "warranty" like if they brick it then they owe you a refund and full price of the tablet

Just got this today about an hour ago.
Did not seem to break root, i'm using LBE privacy guard and it's still running the active protection service. Is there another easier way to test if root is still working?

See if SU grants permission for an app like "Adaway" or something like that. My lady got the update about few hour ago as well.

The 2.06 update pops up every time I unlock my phone. I'm walking to the store, I look at my phone and behold its installing the 2.06 update on its own. Well played Verizon. The thought of selling this phone never crossed my mind, but since 2.04 root is priority over 2.06 I'm highly considering it.

It's not about how good stock is or isn't. It's about being able to do what you want.
Go try and use teamviewer or a vnc server. Need root.
How about Wi-Fi tether that doesn't require a screen password. Need root
Titanium backup? Nope... root.
Game cheat engine's... root
So while the stock interface is fine, no unrooted phone can do the above without it.

Forget it. As of now it says, "Your device currently isn't supported. " Anyways. When it tries to unlock the bootloader, it'll most likely end up just rebooting. And the ROMs will probably be for the P760 (As CM supports it officially on the site)
Yep does not work. Unsupported.

In all honesty I don't even know at this point. I'd imagine it only "works" on phones that are "officially" unlockable. They even stated that just about every Verizon phone is out the door lol.
I saw p760 is on the support list, not 769.
So no luck for 769 user here?

I look at the P769 as a T-Mobile phone instead of an LG phone sometimes. They do not want the L9 to run CyanogenMod. Plain and simple. They want us to get a Nexus for that.

Well from a theoretical standpoint, it would possibly unlock with a P760 ROM(?), like we had to do to unlock our bootloader.

Probably, but... And here it comes:
I think it was xonar_ from my old OB forum who found out, that even if you flash you phone with a kdz file, some partitions remain untouched/simply dont get flashed. Maybe if you manually would e.g. flash every single one, you might have a chance. But that being said, we need a guineapig
