Hey everybody, first post. Anywho, I rooted my phone on version 4.0.4 and I used the lelus method, and once I got the phone to root everything was fine. I wanted to update to jb so I went into busybox or superuser, and unrooted and it gave me an error, and of course I don't remember the error. My root access is gone but things that were in the root like a custom boot animation are still there, i'm not sure if thats normal but now when I try to update to V20f and get an exclamatory android and a reboot. I already tried a factory reset and hard reset but I still can't update. Thanks!
Have you tried using the lg support tool? Thats how i updated without wiping everything. After that tuns, ifyou are trying to still have root, run lgpwn.apk,and lg-recovery-installer.apk. works like a charm

Hi
I rooted my htc explorer sometimes ago.
Today i tried to unroot the phone.
I relocked the htc explorer's bootloader. But it is showing security warning.
I followed some tutorial to unroot the htc explorer.
I tried to factory reset after the unroot. It didn't work.
I checked my sd card status. It is not detected.
I went to bootloader and tried to use recovery which again brought me to fastboot.
I tried to factory reset which took me to the fastboot again.
Please help me.
You'll want to find the RUU for your phone. This should fix you right up.

Unfortunately it seems that many of the links for the RUU are down. You need to know what region the phone is from and what update it was on last to be safe though because they made different variants of the phone and typically the versions are not compatible.

I flashed one recovery and flashed a stock rom which i got it here.
By the way, What is a stock rom? It looks like my old os but it has some new apps installed on it.
Thanks for the help
Hi guys,
I rooted my phone a month ago using Kingo Root, it works fine. So I un-rooted now and restarted the phone and it says "custom" when I go to Settings - Status, etc.. I factory reset the phone and it still says custom! weird.
I don't know why this is happening, when I had an S4 and used Kingo Root to root it says custom but upon un-rooting the phone returned to Normal.
Does anyone have a stock recovery img to flash? or a way to solve this? I would like to be able to check for updates.
I have the C101 International version.
Thanks
Have you tried installing a stock ROM with Odin software? It should resolve the problem! have you tried it?
So I let my brother use my rooted LG Volt ls740 to play a game. The phone had downloaded an OTA update about a week ago, but I've been putting it of and not installing it BC the phone is rooted. Well he went ahead and did the update without asking and basically soft bricked the phone.
It just boot loops to CWM Recovery. I bit the bullet and tried to wipe and factory reset the phone to no avail.
i then tried downloading and flashing with stock Roms zv5 and zv6. Both install fine with no errors. When i go to restart it goes to a screen that says "root access possibly lost, fix" followed by 6 nos and a yes that says Fix root (/system/xbin/su) Whether i choose yes or no it just restarts back to the same screen.
I've looked everywhere and figured if anyone could help it would be XDA. Please someone help. This phone is my livelyhood and i can't afford to replace it at the current time. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!

This is the fix for the G2 and G3, so I would think it's the same for yours, although I am not familiar with that particular one.
Since you have CWM and not TWRP, which includes a terminal emulator, you'll probably have to do it via adb shell on your PC, or maybe the Aroma File Manager:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter
type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
After that, you should be able to flash a rom or install the KDZ, if available.
Hello all! I am currently trying to root an LG Premier LTE
5.1.1 lollipop
Straight talk
Please help me, also thank you very much for your time
I have this phone also and I have searched high and low. At a glance it doesn't look good. I hear people saying things like a locked bootloader and unrootable. I remember the Motorola Atrix 2, and what a nightmare that whole thing was for me and my woman. I'ma give this phone to my daughter. She would love it for a birthday present. If this phone cannot be rooted, and if the bootloader is locked, and nothing comes of this it is useless to me. So if a bootloader is locked does that mean this device is unrootable? Any of you developers thank you for your time in advance, is there such thing as an unrootable Android? If I come up on any information I will post it here on your thread my friend
I'm also looking to root this phone. Hopefully someone will come up with a way. I remember when the Samsung Galaxy J3 came out and it took a while before someone came up with a root method for it. If I find any new information, I will also post it here.
Locked bootloader doesn't mean unrootable. You can root with a rooting app, then before rebooting, use flashify to flash the stock kernel(boot.img)
Ive tried Kingroot and other one click methods. Also tried kingoroot on the pc. All failed. Tried using adb reboot bootloader and it just reboots the phone and adb reboot recovery only gives you the option of factory reset.
Anyone able to root this yet?
Has anyone figured out how yet?
Yes I rooted it

How'd you do it? :fingers-crossed:
Can u please tell us how we can root the LG Premier Lte
Or are u just lying to troll all of us as u can tell it means a great deal to us and lying doesnt make any progression
I have same phone and I have tried everything...........if anyone knows a way post here please and thanks!!
I also have this phone. Would love to root it but none of the above were successful: King Root. Kingo root. Srs root. One Click Root. Stump root. Towelroot. LG one Click. Lol ive tried them all.
Has anyone done anything or had any succuess with this phone? Seems to be a higher priced but lower end phone.... My LG G2 from 4 years ago still blows this phone away. I shouldnt have jumped on this phone when my G4 broke. Should have just spent $20 on a throw away for while in the bind and explored my options.
Just a thought here but....
I have read the LG K10 is the "SAME" phone? and that the "LG Premier LTE" is just the renamed version of the K10 for Straight Talks services.... Can anyone confirm or deny that we could use the Root methods, Recoverys and or flash system images etc. from the K10?
Has any successfully rooted this phone yet?
I was able to temporarily root it with King root but as soon as you restart or turn off the phone, root is gone.
After getting temp root through kingroot we will need a custom recovery. Frash that before the phone reboots. Once it reboots. Go to recovery and flash a supersu zip. The only thing we are missing is a custom recovery.....

Wonder if the TWRP guys are working on this? :fingers-crossed:
It should be just like every other LG phone
Open McAfee security, sign up and get into the security options. Then disable it's root blocker.
anyone been able to figure this out yet????
Wouldn't Hold My Breath.

I wouldn't hold my breath. If this hasn't been rooted by now, it most likely won't be.
I've been waiting for months and at this point will have a new phone before anyone takes the time to figure out how to root this one.
