Has anyone rooted the virgin mobile (or boost mobile) LG Volt let? If so how? I've tried several ways, Kingo Root, using adb to push the SU binary, ioroot update in recovery, etc.... love the phone just really need to root it.
Edit: VRoot also doesn't work, testing more methods
Thanks in advance

go post in this thread to show that people want the volt rooted so support can be implemented by the author. Use the following commands to post the information for the author of ioroot so that he can possibly add support for the ls740

I need the output from the 4 ADB commands below along with IOroot version and if it was on Windows/Linux/Mac. Any errors you come across would help as well...

Looks like someone has. Head over to towelroot.com and download their tr.apk. I can confirm it rooted my Boost LG Volt. Some issues with getting Superuser.apk or SuperSU.apk to work, though.
I too agree tr.apk will allow root. It does not push buysbox so just grab that and you fav su apk and get rid of those damn sd card restrictions in 4.4?
Have you guys been able to get full root with this app? I can get get supersu to install correctly ?

Another thread on the androidforums.com saya installing the SuperSU apk from the xda-developers thread worked fine...not sure if it is the lg f90 or volt it worked on...Another on the same thread said it didn't work for them...They were wondering if it was Virgin Mobile causing the issue...
EDIT:
At this point, the SuperSU in Play Store has been updated (Version >= v2.00) so that it works properly with our devices.
I did it!

To recap install and run the apk here: http://towelroot.com/
Then install the version of supersu listed above.
towelroot and superSU
Rooted my VM volt using towelroot and superSU from Google play. A reboot was necessary for superSU to update.
Thank you to everyone who shared info here. I hope to see some custom roms around. :laugh:

Root LG P500 Fast
this tool was originally created for the lg p350, but some people tried it on their p500's and it worked
I post here so all of you can root your devices with only a few clicks
Disclaimer
I am NOT responsible for any bricked devices, dead SD-cards, or any misfortunes that happen to you
This tool is fool proof, and if doesn't work, then YOU have broken it, YOUR phone was already bricked, or YOU Haven't followed the instructions properly
Do not Blame any developer for any problems. If it bricks devices, then it won't be published
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You do not need to boot into fastboot. All instructions are given to you as you work
If your device can't be detected then it will go through checks, such as seeing if pc can see the device (windows 7 only)
It will also download and install the drivers for you silently if your computer doesn't have them, or if they are not working correctly
To use
download the zip here
extract to where ever you want
run "antdking's p500 rooting tool.bat" (could be called "antdking's p500 rooting tool" depending on your system)
follow the steps
If anyone wants to suggest features, post on here
If anyone wants to alter code, or add code (only if you know what you are doing), then send the suggestions to me, I will check them and add them
If people from other phones use this and it works, please post on here, or the original thread and I will post it into your forum as well

Issue
Thanks for putting this together antdking
I came across an issue rooting my LG Optimus One with it, the batch script gave an error with something like "invalid option for su: --install"
Fixed it by adding single-quotes around the busybox command on line 409 like this:
adb -d wait-for-device shell "su -c '/system/bin/busybox --install -s /system/bbin'"

No. Rooting will only allow you to flash a custom recovery, which you need to do seperately after rooting.
Options for Custom Recoveries -
1) AmonRa 2) TWRP 3) CWM
I use AmonRa which I find most stable & functional. CWM installation from ROM manager could brick your phone.
Once you have installed your recovery, then you can flash any custom ROM you like from this forum.
Hope this helps.:good:

Warning: This is semi complicated, and is known to ruin phones if done incorrectly. Proceed at your own risk
Needed:
1gb free space on the phone.
Working adb, must support the adb restore feature (ICS and up!)
Downloads:
backup.ab (300mb) mirrors: http://d-h.st/tau - http://depositfiles.com/files/9c61r4lgo - http://www.filefactory.com/file/2va8yp2i1h99/n/backup.ab
DNA_TeamAndIRC mirrors - http://d-h.st/D4r - http://www.putlocker.com/file/F357F205F5235B3D - http://rapidgator.net/file/59342799/DNA_TeamAndIRC.zip.html
Unzip DNA_TeamAndIRC, put runme.sh, CIDGen.apk and backup.ab into the directory where adb is (or anywhere if you have your paths setup right).
Please Check the readme.txt before continuing!
Code:
adb install CIDGen.apk
Run the CIDGen app on your phone, enter the last digit of your IMEI (NOT YOUR MEID) and press generate. Then confirm the generated file exists.
Code:
adb shell ls -l /sdcard/CIDBLOCK.img
If CIDBLOCK.img does not exist, run the app and try again. Do not proceed without generating a CIDBLOCK.img, it is needed to repair the phone and unlock.
Once you have CIDBLOCK.img on your sdcard, open two terminals (command prompts) and continue
In the first terminal/cmd prompt run these commands:
Code:
adb push runme.sh /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/runme.sh
adb shell /data/local/tmp/runme.sh
runme.sh will continue to loop and spit out No such file or link failed errors, just leave it running for now.
In the other terminal/cmd prompt run this commands:
Code:
adb restore backup.ab
Then allow the restore on your phone. Once the process is finished, you can go back to the looping terminal and stop it with control + c, or close the terminal
At this point, do not continue unless you are certain you can do this. Past this point, is where people can brick if they do not follow the directions correctly. If you run into a problem, find someone to help you. Do NOT power your phone off or reboot it. Leave it charging and find someone.
Code:
adb shell rm /data/data/com.htc.usage/files/exploit/*
adb shell mv /data/DxDrm /data/DxDrm_org
adb shell mkdir /data/DxDrm
adb shell ln -s /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /data/DxDrm/DxSecureDB
adb reboot
Once the phone is rebooted, open two terminals and repeat the restore exploit:
In the first one:
Code:
adb shell /data/local/tmp/runme.sh
This process will also loop forever and give out lots of "No such file" or "link failed" errors - again, just leave it running.
In the second terminal, restore the backup again:
Code:
adb restore backup.ab
After the restore is done, we will undo the DxDrm symlink attack and write the new CIDBLOCK.img:
Code:
adb shell mv /data/DxDrm /data/DxDrm_trash
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/CIDBLOCK.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5
If this returns an "out of space error" come to our chat, and find either jcase or beaups. Do not reboot. Do not continue.
Code:
adb reboot
After reboot, you can go to http://HTCDev.com, and unlock through their official process. Choose the "All other supported models" option when selecting your phone.
Cheers!

I just did it, and it's really not that hard, took maybe 10 minutes, just copy and paste the commands and you should be good :good:
So I was able to unlock with this method via HTCDev, I installed TWRP and the insecure kernel, but my SuperSU will not work after I flashed the file in recovery. None of my apps can get root access, and I cannot update the superuser binary via SuperSU. What's going on here?

This will void your warranty, like all root exploits. Use this at your own risk. Do not take OTAs on rooted devices unless you know what you are doing, as it may cause a bootloop or a soft brick.
RockMyMoto is designed for MotoXs that have recieved the Camera update, patching PwnMyMoto. If you are unsure of your firmware, try PwnMyMoto first.
First step is to install Cydia Impactor, by Saurik. http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/ This is required. You will also need adb installed and working, and be comfortable with the command line. Your phone must be on the same network as your PC.
Figure out the ip address of your phone:
adb shell getprop dhcp.wlan0.ipaddress
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
unzip RockMyMoto-{version}.zip and push the exploit and su to /sdcard/:
adb push su /sdcard/
adb push RockMyMoto.jar /sdcard/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Run Impactor and select "# start telnetd as system on port 2222", then hit start.
Once the process is complete, run telnet:
telnet {your phone's ipaddress} 2222
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Run the exploit through telnet
dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The exploit will tell you to use adb to reboot:
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Run the exploit through telnet for the second time, it will reboot on it's own:
dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Run the exploit through telnet for the third time, it will not reboot:
dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wait 0-60 seconds, for su to install, then install SuperSu from the market.
Enjoy!
Known issues:
If you have AP isolation mode enabled in your AP (aka WiFi router) you won't be able to connect to your phone via telnet, disable isolation.

I confirm that this does work on the Droid Maxx on the new OTA update !!!
Thanks JCASE Much Appreciated !!!

Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
This might a dumb question, but why don't we just release a rooted OTA update?
Quick question about this exploit. I know that the issue with the first two earlier methods is that everything is still signature checked, which prevents Custom ROM/Kernel flashing, as well as Custom Recoveries.
Does this exploit bypass the signature check to allow for custom recovery, or not just yet?
PS: Your skills are godlike. A million thanks for your root hacks!

no, just me forgetting to attach it, seems ppl were using hte one i have in the motox forum. attached and fixed, thanks
I'm not sure why or how I did this but I am rooted with no write protection off I still have stock recovery. Everything went smooth but when I entered dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto for the first time it said I was rooted and to install super user I have tried since to go through the steps but i end up in the same spot

youve almost got a triple negitive going on there, so to clarify, you are rooted, with write protection disabled (ie cant make lasting changes to /system) and you still have stock recovery. is that right?
I am getting link failed file exists when attempting to start telnet.
Forget all that, I was using the wrong port, now the process beings to start the telnet process hangs at waiting for completion then goes back to the impactor main menu, the telnet connection is not successful after that.
I am using the latest soak test update, Am I wrong thinking that this method works with that update?

Yup sorry if it was confusing.
Ok I think I figured it out my phone is already rooted even after a factory reset. I used voodoo when I took the update and everything worked but I had no touchless controls so I did a factory reset after installing stock recovery. I must have had the protected su on the phone still and it stayed unless jcase has a work around for this I am stuck until the new fxz comes out. Then I can completely wipe su out and I will be able to start all over. It really is not that big of a deal I can use almost everything with just root even xpsosed setting work. It would appear the exploit does not allow you to run it if you have root it must verify you do and thinks all is well so it never installs the writer protection off and replaces the stock recovery. My stupid mistake for trying to short cut this I should have just did an fxz took the update and used this method.
Aaaaaaaaand back to rooted. JCASE you are the man!!
If anyone has questions on what to do ask away. it was very simple
I've never used adb before in my life. Would you recommend me trying it lol. Meaning would it be easy for a first timer.

ADB is not difficult. There are tons of tutorials all over the web. I wish I knew more about telnet and the other stuff involved tho

You need to go into settings and about phone. Scroll to the bottom to build number and tap it like 6-7 times you'll see it countdown and say "now you are a developer". This enables developer options

ORIGINAL STUMP APK ROOT THREAD- ALL CREDITS TO JCASE!!
This is the easiest way to root your LG G3 (VS985)
1. Install THIS app
2. Open app and start it
3. Hit Grind, then hit bruteforce (it wont mess up anything, you have to do, it works)
4. Wait until it says to reboot to finish root
5. it reboots twice
6. Done
Now install SuperSU from the market, havent tried any other superuser apps except SuperSU

Hey there! I have the Korean F400k10g version ( which i downgraded to because the 10l version wouldn't root ).. any idea if this would this root the 10l? Rooting the F400k10l ( which is the latest version in Korea ) failed on all popular rooting software.. :good::good:
Hey thanks for the post! I went ahead and downloaded and started the "grind" and it gave me a message that it had to bruteforce. And it could take 10 minutes, is this normal? I do have the Verizon version btw and everything is stock as,I just picked,it up yesterday. Thanks!!

Yes, had to bruteforce my VZW G3. Worked perfectly. Remember to uninstall Stump after you've installed SuperSU and rebooted once to be sure all is good.
Worked perfectly!
I'll confirm, I did this w/my Verizon G3 when I got it about a month ago and it worked perfectly. Been able to use apps like TiBu, root explorer, greenify, g3tweaks (donated), etc with no issues.
I did have to Brute force, and it took about 3 minutes IIRC.
Another confirmation that it worked. Now off to the main thread to give more thanks.
Had to unroot the device, now when I try to root using this method I get "Phone not supported".. Any ideas?

Think you should be able to brute force.

Try downloading it to your computer, and sideloading it to your phone.

Thanks for posting this. My GFs face will be priceless when I unbox my G3 tomorrow morning from Amazon, and go to this page, and root it within minutes of it's first startup.....
Some oddities with this apk:
* Wants permission to pass queries to Maluuba (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maluuba.android&hl=en)
* Wants to manage IPsec connections - why would a root app need to establish a vpn connection?
* Wants permission to Google Now Remote Access
All of this seems fishy... so the app could remote into my phone via an encrypted VPN (so no trace of the source), and do whatever - including screen my search queries...
I don't think so.
I want to do this to my GF's G3 but is there a 100% way to get back to factory?I am not familiar with LG phones
after i run stump, can i uninstall the app? after the reboot, the phone was asking permission to uninstall... let me know thanks!!!!!

Fastest way is just to reboot into recovery. If TWRP is there, it was successful. If you weren't able to unlock your bootloader, and you tried to flash recovery etc, you would know it didn't work, most likely get a message like Verizon has detected unauthorized software.
Getting error on Mac LG G3 BUMP
-bash: adb: command not found / Can someone help
Make sure you are running the terminal from within the same folder that your adb tool is (usually the platform-tools folder of your AndroidSDK install directory). Then use ./adb instead of just adb for Mac OS X to recognize it as a terminal utility.

Why not try the Flashify app? I got TWRP up in under 5 min. No need for adb- just one click and you're done.
Thanks acparker18, worked great!
Got to make sure its on the root of SD card unless u are familiar enough with adb to change commands..Flashify is the easiest option or terminal emulator.. No real need for PC..The first set of commands is backing up your stock recovery.. The second set is the golden ticket. (Bumped recovery)
adb

Some people feel more comfortable following the devs instructions as closely as possible. I ran all the commands from the terminal emulator on my phone and had it running in less than 5 minutes but I can't blame anyone for not wanting to risk it! Plus I don't mind some good old-fashioned terminal work. To each his own.
Anyone got the clean theme working yet? It just boot loops for me.

Its not really unlocked per se. This exploit basically allows the phone to boot non-factory images, but the bootloader is still in tact.
Now that I have root and unlock how do I turn off updates from Verizon so it doesn't mess up my phone??

You can freeze it with Titanium backup from the play store
The app to freeze with TiBU is the one called "System updates ..."

Not true. According to the thecubed, this isn't an exploit, but is an actual unlock method.
Negative, the boot loader is 100% locked still.
