Help rooting LG G Vista 2 (H740) AT&T - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been trying to find a root method that will work on my AT&T LG G Vista 2 H740. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

Yeah this affordable and very capable device seems to have been overlooked. It runs 5.1.1 and would be an awesome root and ROM project.

Bump

Anything yet? I received my lg g vista 2 in the mail and was excited to go on xda to root it. Nothing yet?

I believe I've found a couple exploits that I could take advantage of. I'll update every couple days or so on my progress. I've been messing around on my Vista 2 and it seems like a fun and simple enough project. I'll be back with updates!

Thank you! I'm mostly dying to root so I can tether wifi to my 2yr olds tablet. When we're in the car it's a lifesaver! :good:

Sesrch google for "Kingroot apk"

Bump on this thread. Nobody is noticing because nobody cares about this handset. This unit is most likely exploitable by anything that works on the G3. I am desperate to get root because I am sick of the random reboots. Any brave souls want to try the G3 exploits?

I'm going to necro this because I think plenty of people still want to see a root method for this phone.

Guys I have a question. What is the code you put in the dialer for the hidden menu? I know this thing is very capable but at the moment my LG G2 beat this thing out of the water. even though this thing has better specs than the G2,why is it lagging so much? any help would be appreciated as I just got this and if it is a POS, I can return it within 12 days regards, ~Sky

I'm gonna refer to earlier suggestion to try kingroot.
It will likely work in rooting the Vista 2.

Believe it or not, kingroot didn't work :/ I tried it like 3 times and they all fail

I've tried King Root multiple times without any luck. I really wish someone would find an exploit for this phone. If you could clean all the bloatware off, it would help it out tremendously. And without thinking the other day, I installed the Marshmallow update, so I'm sure it's going to take a little while to find an exploit for it.

Yes I'm hoping someone comes up with an exploit soon. I really want this phone to have a cpu control app because I know it has the potential to be fast but the cpu won't allow it. Also I'd really like to have the lucky patcher work. If ANYONE has an exploit, please post it here. How do we get this thread more noticed on XDA?

I will pay money for Root and Cyanogen Mod-G Vista 2
Currently using the AT&T LG G Vista 2 and the phone would be fantastic with Cyanogen Mod so anyone want to take this on and I will send you via PayPal $50.00 to get it rooted and working with Cyanogen Mod. Anyone else care to add to that so we can make it worthwhile for a good DEV???

Bump

What is bump and who do I do it

We're you ever successful in any of the exploits you tried to root the LG G Vista 2? I'm just wondering because I have been looking for almost a month for ANYTHING on the subject only to have no luck.

Kingroot, as well as Kingo root, iRoot, One-Click Root, root genius, and any of the other One-Click apk's, as well as their companion PC Software's, do NOT thus far. And if anyone knows where to get the original firmware of the LG G Vista 2, which is the Android 5.1.1 version, it would be greatly appreciated! I have searched hi and low, and have yet to find it.

Has anyone tried the G3 exploits yet? I'd be interested to know if it works.

I cannot find the firmware either, and if anyone knows how to root it, I would love it :3 I'm literally putting my G Vista 2 aside because it's useless without root tbh. I'm on my G2 with CM but it's falling apart -_- so yeah

[Q] Samsung Conquer 4G Root?

Any information on rooting the Samsung Conquer 4G released by Sprint recently? I'm planning on picking one up this week as soon as the return of my broken MoPho is processed and I'd like to root it as soon as I get it..
I would be interested in this also, might finally convince my wife to ditch her palm pre for this little device
i've got one on the way, if anyone needs a hand testing anything. root would be awesome! it's a nice little device.
I'm on day 2 with a new Conquer - would love to see someone post a way to root it.
I am hoping to find a Root method for this guy also, here is the review i posted about it for my wife.
Conquer 4G Review
i've tried a lot of the general root methods, even tried just doing some experimentation, no dice. 2.3.4 might be a mofo to crack, but you'd think with source being released, someone would come up with a way.
2.3.4 has been rooted on the Motorola Photon 4g (MoPho) so doing it on the conquer should be no problem. I'd do it myself but I have no idea how.
Damn, this does not bode well. Was thinking about going with this phone over an HTC Evo Shift 4G since it has a faster processor and more RAM, but the lack of root and the apparent lack of interest in community support makes me lean the other way.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A

[Q] Pantech Breakout: Can it be rooted?

I had to upgrade my cell phone at Verizon yesterday and they talked me into getting a smartphone, so I got the newly released Pantech Breakout. It runs Gingerbread 2.3.3 and I was wondering can it be rooted? Has it been rooted? If it's not been rooted yet by someone, are there any chances that it will be since it's a low to middle-end phone? I tried Gingerbreak on it and left it running all night and all it did was stay stuck on the Rooting screen.
I need it rooted so I can replace the wpa_supplicant file and be able to connect to my ad-hoc network here at home.
Thanks for any help.
I'm curious too. Everything I've read says it can't be (yet). But I'm still searching. So far gingerbreak and superoneclick don't work =/
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Bump! Also, are there plans to have a dedicated sub-forum for this device?
Thanks
Thanks for the replies all.
@ lucf Sorry for posting in the wrong forum. I'm new here and there are so many categories.
Does anybody else have this phone? If so what do you think about it? I think it's pretty awesome minus no flash and slower processor.
Yeah.....any luck with the root?
I am using right now. Not sure about root, being that I will only have it for a week or so.. its pretty nice and $49 on contract at bby isn't bad.. I am pretty sute the processor is the same as the thunderbolt processor.. the ram is less however.

No luck with the root yet, hoping someone will figure out how to do it soon, haha. I don't even know where to start or I'd look into it myself.
Did u guys know that this phone will do data and voice at the same time. Even on straight 3g.??
Sent from my ADR8995 using XDA App
I'm getting this phone sometime next week. I hope it becomes popular enough that somebody might try for root on it. Every where I look more and more people are picking this phone up for cheap LTE.
When I get it I'll see what I can do, but this may require a whole new root method.
I hope to see root soon! I am sick and effing tired of seeing my wife futz with the stupid system apps autoupdating themselves and taking up precious app memory!

I have had the phone for a few days now and love it for the most part. You are right though, you have to make sure you move new apps to SD or the mem fills up fast.
I got it for free through TigerDirect, so I am not complaining too much. lol.
I keep 4g turned off unless I am surfing or using the Market etc and that VASTLY helps the battery life. Also loaded Launcher Pro to get rid of the stock UI.
All things considered, I think this is a good little phone for the price. Rooting would REALLY let it shine though, IMO.

Rooting LG V10

Hello everyone.
I was recommended to check these forums so I decided to create an account.
I have had my LG V10 for almost three weeks now and I love it. I have the T-Mobile version. I came from iPhone and I always had my phone jailbroken. I wish to root my LG V10 for more freedom and to get rid of those pesky ads.
Can someone link me to a guide that will assist me in rooting my T-Mobile LG V10? I haven't been able to find anything anywhere else. Also, I would love to know what can I do or what are the things that people recommend to do after the phone is rooted.
Again, it is my first time on Android so help me out, please.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Mrs Ana.

Thanks for that.
I apologize for being new. I clearly do not understand what is being said there lol. I know what rooting is but I don't know how to follow the directions and in what order.
Can you please tell me what I have to do first? If there is a step-by-step guide, that would be awesome. I am trying to root my T-Mobile LG V10.
Thanks and again, sorry. I just do not want to mess it up.
I think you're going to have to do some googling and reading about adb first if you aren't already familiar with it.
I'm no expert. Still running stock here and havent rooted a phone since my original HTC g1 and HTC g2.
Sent from my pretty nifty brand new LG V10
Not sure if you have seen it yet but at the bottom of the LG-V10 posts there is a T-Mobile LG-V10 link you might look in there that may help you out also good luck and keep asking questions no question is to dumb.

I tried method of Kingoroot and Framaroot but I couldn't.
Please give me some advice.

If you already tried all rooting programs its not possible to root without TWRP or any other custom recovery.
But you didn't tried "all". Just keep trying.

Have you tried Towelroot? I've had success with it in the past with another Asus Tablet. If you have done any software updates to it already you may be SOL , not positive though. I just received mine today and as soon as I'm out of work I'm going to get started on it, I'll let you know if I have any luck

Did you get your tabled rooted?
No dice =-(
Ended up doing an OTA update that I couldn't stop from pushing through. Still searching around for something that works, I just hope I'm not too late. I absolutely love this tablet.. For the performance , build quality, and price, this thing can't be beat. Samsung and Huawei had a couple of decent tablets in the same price range but they looked and felt "cheap" to me. Unlike my HTC 10, I don't think I will lose any sleep if it never gets rooted but I certainly wouldn't mind a custom ROM on this thing
Rooting Z500M
I very much hope someone responds favorably to rooting the Z500M.
I have seen several websites that offer instruction on how to do it. I posted links to some of those pages that offered solutions, but when I did my post was deleted and I was accused of some nonsense from the head of the forum.
I have also seen a site that gives a tutorial on loading Nougat to the Z500M, I would share it but I don't want to get criticized again.
In that meantime, will Asus ever have a upgrade for Android Nougat, at least to 6.01, which had been out for quite a while and I use on my Asus built Nexus 7(2013).
I really want to root and install Adaway to manage all the ads.
Thanks
Jon

I would appreciate that very much as well.
The z500m looks like a very good android device but unfortunately I would like to be able to root it before I buy it.
If anyone knows a way to achieve this I would really appreciate that.
Thanks to all. I have had the ZenPad Z500M for about two months and it is a fantastic Tablet, especially for the price.
I am waiting to read from someone who has successfully rooted it. I have read several posts around the web with methods that "should" work, but no comments from anyone who has successfully done it.
I also am waiting for an upgrade to Android 7, Nougat. After signing a petition for Asus to allow upgrades to Nougat and several tech emails and calls, Asus tech support says it will happen.. When?
I would very much like to root it, use Adaway and a custom ROM if I need to.
Thanks,
Jon
i got the nougat update for this tablet about a month ago. android 7.0.

LG X Venture twrp?

I have a LG X Venture H700. Had it for a while now and would like to root it, I heard some whispers a while ago about a twrp maybe coming out for the device but haven't seen or heard any updates. Anyone got any info on this device or is it past the point of anyone developing a root method?
Nobody? Did I post this in the wrong forum or is this phone old news?
I'm curious about this as well.
Im waiting for it too...
Me too...and it's over a year later and still, no responses. I wonder why?
