I have an LG Enlighten (Verizon Wireless), not an LG Optimus Slider (Virgin Mobile), running Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread). I am in desperate need of a root solution. I have searched the online forums to no avail. I have put the phone up for sale for fear that this device may never be rooted. I am calling on XDA Developers to produce a working root before I ultimately rid myself of this thing. To add, I tried running Android SDK (adb). No go. The instructions threw me even after trying them repeatedly on several different occasions. It could be that my laptop
has no internet access, but I'm not entirely sure.
I really enjoy this phone and have customized it to the point of
exhaustion. All I'm waiting for now is ROOT! Please help ASAP...
Have you attempted to root it? Have you tried Superoneclick, z4root, and/or Gingerbreak?
Re: Have you tried to root it?
Yes, I have. Unfortunately, with no success. Results are as follows:
Z4Root - The end result is my phone takes me back to the previous screen (internet, home, games, music, etc.). It begins the rooting process... acquiring shell root. Then it just sticks for approximately 30 seconds and then closes. I have repeated the process on several occasions in the event that something unusual happened the first time around. But the result is always the same.
Gingerbreak - This app just ultimately hangs, endlessly. Approximately two hours worth before I just quit in frustration. But all online forums claim it should take no more than 15 minutes tops. I should also note that I read Z4Root and Gingerbreak will not work on rooting Android 2.3.4 due to the patching of an exploit. However, I did not update my phone to this firmware. It came preinstalled. And I have not found a procedure for downgrading (sbf'ing) an LG Enlighten.
SuperOneClick - This is the one I'm currently trying still. I can't recall the website, but in addition to SOC, it also requires the use of adb from Android SDK. The problem I'm coming across is the laptop I'm using to perform this action is without internet access (which I've tried feverishly to restore to no avail). And I'm thinking this is what the issue may be, but I'm not entirely sure. The only access I have to the internet currently is on my phone. However, I make a weekly trip to the college library (no restrictions on installing, downloading, etc.). So maybe I can try something there.
For the past month, I've been doing extensive research online trying to find any and all information in regards to resolving this matter. A few sites have blamed Verizon for crippling their Android devices from performing certain functions. For instance, this particular device has no "boot into recovery mode" (which I confirmed with a Verizon tech support person). Had it, I easily could've updated with the .zip file from my SD card (which I've now deleted since it's rendered useless).
I did read today that the next version of SuperOneClick v2.3 (to come out at a later date) will include the option for the forced inclusion of adb debugging/android files which could be the solution to my problems. Possibly.
I apologize if this reply post seems a little long-winded. But I wanted to provide you with all the information I have available in order to better recieve instruction as how to proceed forward. I will continue to try the SuperOneClick in hopes that I will acquire root. But if not, I will rely on the expertise of those in the XDA community.
Thanks,

Rooting LG Enlighten
Ok. I found the solution. There is a video on youtube which shows you how to do it. And it works. I now have a rooted device! Finally. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi, I too have an LG Enlighten from Verizon wireless. I was just wondering how your root process went? Did the phone work well afterwards? Also do you by any chance have a link to or at least remember the name of the video you watched which helped you to get your phone rooted.
thanks in advance, Angel

seeing as there is no link, I would say no.
secondly, the video posted and my own research indicates that root was possible only if it was v. 2.3.3. There isn't anything available for 2.3.4.
I have rooted my LG Enlighten which was on Gingerbread 2.3.4. I made a tutorial over at phandroids forums since xda does not let me post links to outside sources. Just google Lg Enlighten root and you will find it in the first or second link. Enjoy.
PS: If you do not believe me I made a video of my phone rooted on youtube. My user name there is the same as xda and I posted pictures at the end of my tutorial. Gingerbread 2.3.4 is fully exploitable on the LG Enlighten.

I think it would a great idea to include which firmware you used this on. I kbow for a fact that it fails on v4 and v5.
And its not that I don't believe you (I do btw) its just the lack of specifics are going to excite someone and they'll leave you a nasty message cause they thought it would work. So, just a heads up:
Android version:
Firmware version:
Sent from my LG-VS700 using xda premium
I can confirm that the new VS700ZV5 update crippled the ability of this phone to root. I just tried the gingebreak and it didnt work. Any way around this?
Same here, android 2.3.4; firmware VS700ZV5.
I haven't been able to get root to work with SoC....
Any chance someone will figure a way around this update?
please reply to root on you tube PLEASE!

Extremely frustrated and hoping you will share this link. I to have tried everything to root my Enlighten to no avail and would appreciate your help more than I can explain! Please! Thank you and congats!
I had my phone rooted, then verizon put out an update, and now I can't root it. I think we're screwed until sombody figures out a new method.
Model: LGVS700
Firmware: VS700ZV5
im not sure if this will help but here, i found this claiming to be able to root the phone.
First, you need the file hboot_2.xx_soff-V8.9.zip, download it.
Unzip it into c:evoroot on your pc.
Second, put your LG Enlighten into development mode by
going to Settings->Applications->Development and turn USB
debugging on.
Third, connect your LG Enlighten to your computer and set
your USB to Just charge.
Fourth, if you get errors with drivers, install their HTC drivers.
(You can also install HTC Sync, but it is bulky!)
Fifth, open up a command prompt by typing cmd.
Sixth, type the following commands: (Or copy and paste,
easier!)
Code:
cd evoroot
adb push root/unrevoked-forever.zip /sdcard/
adb push root/mtd-eng.img /sdcard/
adb push pc36img/PC36IMG-ENG.zip /sdcard/PC36IMG.zip
adb push pc36img/PC36IMG-MR.zip /sdcard/PC36IMG-MR.zip
adb push root/flash_image /data/local/
adb -d install -r root/z4root.apk
Seventh, go to your phone and launch Z4Root app. Then select
temp root and wait until its done.
Eighth,go back to command prompt and type:
Code:
adb shell
su
If you get a pound(#) sign, that means you have temp root,
which just gives you temporary root so we can now install
permanent root.
ninth, go back to command prompt and type the following:
Code:
chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image
./data/local/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img
sync
And reboot to bootloader mode by typing:
Code:
reboot bootloader
When bootloader mode starts up, it will look for PC36IMG.zip
and after about 3 minutes ask you if you want to install
PC36IMG.zip.
Say Yes by hitting the volume up button, it should now install
the new zip file, should take about 10 minutes. Go grabs some
coffee and come back.
Eleventh, reboot when its done by hitting the volume up
button.
It will reboot into the OS and we dont want that so takes the
battery out and puts it back in it. Then go back to the
bootloader by hitting the power button while holding down
the volume down button.
Choose Bootloader and wait until you get the triangle sign and
type:
Code:
adb push recovery /
adb shell busybox Cinstall /sbin
adb shell nohup /sbin/recovery
&
Go back to your LG Enlighten and you should see green
menus.
Choose install zip from sd card and choose unrevoked-
forever.zip
After that installs, Choose MS-USB
Go to your computer and delete PC36IMG.zip, then rename
PC36IMG-MR.zip to PC36IMG.zip.
Then power off your LG Enlighten, power back on by pressing
Power Button while holding down the Volume Down button,
this should get you back into bootloader mode.
Simply wait and when it asks to install the update, hit the
Volume Up button.
then reboot your LG Enlighten, your device should now be
rooted with Recovery menu then you can flash new ROMs for
LG Enlighten.
LG Enlighten root
I have lg enlighten running 2.3.4 and it is rooted with super user and rom toolbox working. I used POOT.APK which can be found on google. It worked well and everything went smooth. It is a simple and easy to use application. (You can use either SU or SSU)
any way to update it to ics? i have one
Hey I'm new to the whole rooting thing. But I'm trying to use the one touch root for the Lg Revolution. I have unzipped and installed the drivers. I turned on usb debugging and turned on the Internet connection. Hit the root.bat and it just stopped at the daemon start successfull.
If anyone has any idea what I have done wrong would you mind helping a noob out?
Thanks again
Edit - had to run it in admin.

I can't find any files for this phone. All the so-called one step application links have expired or been hijacked to media download managers. I realize this isn't one of the newest phones. It was easy to get files for the GS3 but the revos all seem to have expired. Has anyone got the files needed to root and install cmod?
Hello,
Just purchased this phone and would like a root in order to expand its storage. It's a new offering from TracFone and is limited for on-phone storage. Other than that, it's a fairly decent phone considering it is a TF. I searched the forums and found other similar phones, but none matched this one. If someone would be willing to help, you would get a lot of thanks from TF users who bought this phone.

Thank you for your suggestions. I have tried several of the one-click methods for root (Kingo, Genius, towelroot, framaroot, etc.). All of which have been unsuccessful. Obviously, there is no rom available for this phone. If anyone has any other info, I would really appreciate it.

Hi MotoJunkie01. I saw your post today, and I just got an Alcatel A564C from TracFone. I would be very interested in rooting this device, since the accessible internal memory is so small it makes it almost unusable. Please open a root thread for this device if you feel there is enough interest. Or, if you would be willing, just send me a PM with the instructions. I have been able to gain temporary root permissions on this device using KingRoot, but they go away with every reboot. Also, I have not found any way to unlock the bootloader. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'll get a thread and a guide posted on rooting the A564C. I've had some PMs with interest as well. I'll post the link here once done.
MotoJunkie, fellow R.F. guy here, I have been browsing this site for well over a year and just signed up in fact this is my first post. I was following your information on the LG zone 3 as well. I own a brand new in the box A564C and just can't get it rooted. I too, tried different ways and actually was able to get temp root once with kingroot when the phone was really lagged out for some reason I had root until reboot. But now every version of kingroot that I run comes back with a network error which is strange and didn't used to happen. So please, let us know what you have found out. I am eager to hear back from you. And, thank you so very much for your willingness to share your knowledge.
Just checking back in, to see if any advancements or progress has been made. I'm excited about finally rooting this device and anxiously waiting.

I'm getting a thread started, as well as threads for other various devices. I know you're anxious, but please be mindful that XDA rules prohibit asking for ETAs and such. It's not that I particularly mind, I just don't want to see you sanctioned for rule violations by a moderator.
A couple of things, I I may....
First of all, aside from the rules (not that I'm saying that I don't respect them, I do but at the same time want you to know what I'm about to say is genuine and not out of fear of getting booted off the forum) I want to personally apologize if I came off as asking for an ETA or came off as rude or unappreciative in any way, shape or form. That was not my intent at all, and rather than PM you I wanted to publicly say that I am sorry for that and to let you know as I previously mentioned how much I enjoy reading your posts and am thankful for your willingness to share your knowledge. With that said I won't get off subject or topic again. I just felt that I needed you to know that I was just excited that someone had it figured out is all and I will pay closer attention on how I come across from now on. Take care.

You're are both respectful and courteous, qualities that are coveted and always welcome here at XDA. I didn't take any offense to your questions but I appreciate your kind words. On an update for this device, I'll be posting a root thread early this week coming -- Tuesday or Wednesday most likely. I have threads for this and at least 4 more devices I'll be posting.
Thanks again for your kind words. By the way I'll be posting the link to my thread here, so check early in the week.
I certainly will...thanks for your reply, and can't wait! I will keep checking back periodically. Thanks again!!
Update: I'm experiencing a boot loop on my own device from trying to flash custom recovery. Trying to get this snag worked out and get the tutorial posted. Sorry for delay.
Hey,..noooo problem on this end...again, just grateful you're both willing to work through the issues and obstacles as they come your way (and if it's anything like that happens to me they sometimes seem to come out of no where, just about when I think my task is complete) but also appreciative that you're willing to share. I would like to start a new thread, not to pile on your list of people bugging you about things already, but need to find the right section. It is more of an R.F. type related question with regards to the modems in the phones and weather the modulation techniques and bands capable are software driven like a software defined radio or more hardware dependent. I know as far as bands go the frequency coverage would have to depend on hardware all the way from the local oscillator to the RX strip to the TX PA as far as gain and linearity, duplexors of some type, antenna (s) being resonant at the middle of the desired band (s) but as far as modulation techniques being more software controlled somehow? Anyways, stuff that I am very interested in but haven't found a section??

MotoJunkie01 - I'm curious to know if this boot loop issue has resulted in you stopping work on rooting this device? Although I am still interested in obtaining root on this phone, I'm cool either way. I'm just posting to see if you think obtaining root and posting a tutorial is still in the cards?
Thanks again for your work on this. I really do appreciate it.
I'm sorry guys. Upon trying to flash the device with a stock fir!mware image to fix the boot loop, my device is now hard bricked. I can tell you, in order to root your device, use the latest KingRoot apk. This will give you temp root only, meaning root will not survive a reboot. So, to gain permanent root, install BusyBox (any version should suffice), then download SuperSU-Me Pro from the Play Store (paid app). This will eradicate the KingRoot root binaries from your device and replace them with the latest version of SuperSU. You will then have full root.

I will thank you if this method would work on my phone, but I am unsure my root would be successful. I would appreciate the steps you took in order to root the A564C(such as time to root, USB debugging, etc.) and if you can post how your phone is doing since the root. I would be much thankful.

See the instructions (author has since updated) at
http://click.xda-developers.com/api...Touch Pop S3</b> 5050 | Every Android version
and the second page comments for recovery hints. TWRP requires some study and preparation before use so it's not good to be stuck when attempting recovery.
Note the comment on the 3rd page about the updated recovery image that lets you see what you are doing on the screen. For me I got it working, working in the dark (ie. not seeing anything on screen), so it's too early for a video tutorial.
Please Help me :/

Rooting using Kingo Root
Rooting nowadays is very simple.
But the easiest way to do it is the following:
1. Download Kingo Root for Windows, Mac or Linux;
2. Install Kingo Root;
3. Open the program;
4. Connect your phone to your pc through USB cable and wait for Kingo Root recognize it;
5. If your phone is rootable it will appear a button saying "ROOT", click there (If your device is not rootable then you are out of luck and you must try another method)
6. Don't remove your phone and don't click anywhere, wait until the rooting process is finished;
7. After this your phone should reboot, it means you are now rooted (If your phone did'nt rebooted, manually reboot it then);
8. Enjoy!
Note: Rooting will void the device's warranty, root at your own risk.
Download the phone's drivers if needed and disable Windows, Mac or Linux firewall if needed.
Hope it works for you!

I can't seem to root this thing. I've tried many onclick roots. You cant use the phone from 10 minutes without the phone going koo-coo. I want to load some random ROM and hope it works. I can't load the ROM without first rooting the machine and using cwm recovery or something. So I think......
Tried TowelRoot on the phone..Tried iroot on my pc etc. I've gotten my self somewhat familiar with adb in my cmd prompt. I'm learning just enough to be dangerous but not enough to make a difference. So far the closest thing to getting a root on this phone has been pushing some pwn and trying to run that. I did try MTK Droid Root kit but that started getting a bit to complicated to follow or they were ill written directions. Here is the nitty gritty...
I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2684210
All was going well. But when I ran nautilus in Linux it did not see the phone anywhere. therefore I couldn't move any files.
Then I ended up getting to something similar but pushing some code named psneuter to the phone and another one called pwn. pwn started but then said failed in the cmd prompt.
I rarely give up on something like this but I can't so I'm writing here. Should I persue the MTK Droid Root kit or does someone have something I should try.

I'm not sure if this will be much help, but...
I recently purchased an XGODY model G300 off eBay, from "eternaldealer". Not sure how much it differs from the X200. Anyway, as received, this phone had pop-up ads and banners. The phone was not really usable. But, a scan using Malwarebytes found three malware apps, "Flashlight", "BeautyMakeup", and "Fun Weather". I did a factory reset and then disabled those three apps. (I cannot uninstall them... yet.) With those three apps disabled, the phone works just fine. You said that your X200 phone goes koo-koo after about 10 minutes? That is sort of what I was seeing before I disabled those apps. So, unless you have already done so, you might consider doing a scan of your phone using Malwarebytes, and maybe a few other malware-related apps from the Play Store. Or, just going into your phone apps list and disable any that don't look absolutely necessary.
As for me, I do want to root my G300, but only to do minor tweaks (e.g. shut off the startup/shutdown sound).
Good luck!

So far the closest thing to getting a root on this phone has been pushing some pwn and trying to run that. I did try MTK Droid Root kit but that started getting a bit to complicated to follow or they were ill written directions. Here is the nitty gritty...
I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2684210
All was going well. But when I ran nautilus in Linux it did not see the phone anywhere. therefore I couldn't move any files.
Then I ended up getting to something similar but pushing some code named psneuter to the phone and another one called pwn. pwn started but then said failed in the cmd prompt.
I rarely give up on something like this but I can't so I'm writing here. Should I persue the MTK Droid Root kit or does someone have something I should try.

Assuming this thread is still relevant;
A couple years ago I rooted my girlfriend's XGODY X200. You'll lose all of your settings and apps with the method I used, but if it's worth it you could try this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/xgody-x200-t3347444
Kingroot works with xgody g200 android 5.1.
After the fifth attempt
