Yes you can. If you have the D625 LTE version, you should try version 1 instead of the newest.

I have 620r

Try root LG G2 MINI D620r,V10g with towelroot but it said, this phone isnt supported. Any tips for rooting this phone?

Did you try the other versions of Towelroot? Certain ones work better with certain versions of the phone and updates. If not that, possible that the older method via update.zip in stock recovery could work: http://hexamob.com/devices/how-to-root-lg-g2-mini/ or a bit more difficult but end result being that you can also install a custom recovery and root that way or install roms would be to unlock the bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/bootloader-unlock-t2827748 . Might want to check with the OP to see if your update is supported by that method, just to be certain.

[Q] about how ppl root their xperia devices

hi all
new from samsung to sony.
just curious, is it the only way you guys used to root or re-root xperia devices after updates with vroot, tools from DooMLoRD etc? i mean except those mentioned, nobody use other alternatives to root xperia devices (in general, not z tablet only)?
and thus if these tools are not compatible with new firmwares then u r not able to root your device in case the previous root was removed?

You can open the bootloader and then you will always be able to root (flash custom recovery, root, flash stock kernel).

thanks for your reply
yeah, i kown that. but what i found is, everyone is sticked to flashtool and thats why i asked
and unfortunately, mine is bl unlock=no, just learnt this after i took it home and so unable to flash own kernels
oh yes, one more thing . couldnt managed to run adb in the recovery mode since windows cant find the drivers and i have tried many drivers already. any idea?

Then I guess you can only root with the exploits and need to be careful about upgrades.
Is it possible to downgrade with Flashtool on locked BL? I think it is (but it's confusing). If it is then you need to keep FTF of the current version in case you upgrade to a new version that can not be rooted.

Sorry, that was misstake. The purpledrake shows me that device has been rooted. I've turn on, downloaded SuperSU and it shows that cannot find binary.
I'm too waiting for root , I can't install any games:/
i hope this gets rooted. i have the MetroPCS variant on 4.4.2 but nothing works, purpledrake, towelroot, kingoroot, ioroot... none work. i want to change the density on this phone this extra large look sucks.
Waiting for root is too long, maybe better way is sell this telephone and buy another one

[Q] LG Optimus L7 II Rooting Help (v20A)

First of all: My english is a lil' bit bad, so sorry for that.
So yea.. I need help. I can't root my LG Optimus L7 II with the firmware
v20A (Android 4.4.2 Kitkat). I think, i should tell you the history of my
phone first: As i got my phone, it had a firmware-version with Android
4.1.2 which I rooted with.. Framaroot i think. Then I flashed cyanogenmod 11.
And i lost my root T.T. Cyanogenmod had many lags, bugs etc. So i tried to flash
Android 4.1.2 with the LG-Update tool. After that my phone didn't start anymore.
My father sent it to the LG-Repair center and i got my phone back with Android
4.4.2. (v20A). I tried to root it a several times (framaroot, towelroot, easyroot..) but it
didn't work. Anyone who can help me?
Some people told me that now this app (former vRoot) can root on Kitkat firmwares (yes, it is a 1-clic root app). Maybe it could help you. If not... have you tried flashing an already rooted KDZ file?
If I wanted a rooted phone with Kitkat and a custom recovery... then I'd flash one of maxx_hr's KDZ. Just use his KDZ and LG Flash Tool (not any other LG tool) and you're good to go
Thank you!
I flashed a pre-rooted ROM by max_hrr 1-2 weeks ago
and it works for me. I have full root access now! Thank you
for helping me

That's great. I used the kdz for Mexico and the results were amazing. Stock firmware, no modifications, rooted, with custom recovery, all in just a few clics. What model of L7II do you have?
Have you seen that now the CyanogenMod 10.2 is going to be the best rom for our LG L7II devices? If not I'd recommend you to have a look at it.
Have a nice day!
Thank you II
Thank you, i'll take a look at it Have a good day

After you flash my kdz, and check it works, turn off device, boot to recovery (TWRP), and flash upgrade-supersu from: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU .
That's all.

Hello,
If I flash the phone with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56986151&postcount=2 ROM, it will be automatically rooted?
If the phone is rooted, does that mean that I can uninstal some system applications that I don't need?

Yes, you can uninstall system apps you don't need. But in order to root your phone you have to download a .zip version of SuperSU and flash it in the recovery mode. I done the same with my P710 and everything went well, so you don't have to worry

kingroot,kingo root this two are better app for rooting and you don't need to backup to root your device.Though titanium backup is a good backup tool for android.

I was under the impression that you could not root the LG K7 because I wasn't able to root the LG K3 (Boost Mobile). But which program should I use? -- Kingo Root or King Root?

Root is already available, there is TOT which you need to flash but you must be downgrade it to V10m first otherwise root will fail. My brother is using same variant which I got rooted without any issue.

Hi Waxim1,
Thanks for your kind assistance.
Will study more on rooting and start rooting once I have confidence and better understanding.
Hi,
Tried the TOT files but soft bricked phone. LGUP stock firmware able to recover phone.
Will try again when not busy...need phone for work as will be travelling on business trip.
Hi guys, I'm on f600s 30c and I just factory reset due to consecutive dirty flash. Restoring almost all apps already when I found out enable oem unlock in developer option. Does this mean we can actually unlock using adb? I'm hesitant to try since I'll have to repeat my settings and installing all over again.
also searching for any method to root my bootlooping f600l on 7.0
