SuperOneClick 2.3.2 Root Attempt LG Optimus Net

I am running Android 2.3.4 on a LG Optimus Net L45C Smart Phone used under the NET10 (owned by Tracfone) service.

Following the instructions from the SuperOneClick author regarding LG phones and 2.3.2 I get as far as the following statement in the right pane of SuperOneClick 2.3.2 :

Killing ADB and restarting as root ... enjoy!

When I look on the Smart Phone in the Android Tab, There is no SU icon that appears prior to rebooting the phone. After rebooting the phone there is no SU icon that appears. The process was repeated 3 times with the same result: The phone is not rooted. Anyone with similar experience?

The attached pdf file shows the output from the right and left panes of SuperOneClick 2.3.2 during the root attempts.

SuperOneClick setting used was for Alternate ADB Parser.

Did you try using unlockroot method?

elbaroark · May 5, 2012

Rooting

For the LG Optimus Net LG L45C, you will need to use Unlockroot from Unlockroot.com. It is currently the only way to root the phone. The Clockwork recovery method that is posted above is not for L45C, it is for P698 and P690, which can brick your phone trying to install it in a phone that may not support it.

Also, good luck with getting software updates for the phone, because Net10 WILL NOT let you upgrade the software on it. It will download the software package, but states that it is invalid and will not install it. If they would allow the phone to update itself, it wouldn't have many bugs that are showing up

Guys I tried the method mentioned above for adobe flash but the files that I place inside data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib keep getting erased everytime I restart my phone. Note that flash works perfectly as long as I dont restart my phone.

Sorry but that's how it is. Try using cm7 it doesn't seem to disappear.

Using Qtadb P690F> PC

Just one addition, as I had problems in using Terminal Emulator on my small screen phone, I wished to use Qtadb which is able to be run from a PC under Windows. I had all sorts of problems getting Qtadb to 'see' my phone and the installed files.
This is what I had to do:
1. Download and install Qtadb and Windows binaries Google as can't post link
2. Download & install LG drivers
3. DL & install Busybox Google Play

The last item was my problem, I had seen this on one of the many threads I checked & had DL but had NOT installed. When installed all problems solved.

Hope this helps someone.

Hi long time phone community forum member but this my first post:

I spent multiple-hour long sessions looking for info on this stupid cute lil phone that my girls kid liked. and i was so shocked that first off i couldnt get this rooted with oneclick or a zergrush attack, then after rooting that there is little to no dev for this phone.

if you want to root it use unlockroot.com (i agree that this tool looks funny and like its going to be an advertisment or scam, but it worked)

for custom cwm recovery i used cmw v5.0.2.7 for the optimus q(lgl55c) this worked in the lgl45c that ive got i will not guarantee that it will in yours but if i was you id jsut go for it. I obtained it here:

androidarea51.com/***-all-things-root-***-12/custom-cwm-recovery-for-the-q/
---thanks to Mark_One (im guessing of that site) for the files adn info---

on that same page is the flash_image.zip file that you unzip to the root of your sd card and follow the instructions to flash the recovery into your phone. I used adb shell instead of terminal editor and used esfileexplorer.apk to move some files adn grant permissions where adbd wasnt cooperating

I put a pretty fun rom thats from the androidarea51 site into teh phone its some redrom adn is all devilish with red icons and widgets adn screams redrom redrom like redrum redrum on bootanimation this was also for the lgl55c so after i flashed it i did adn advance restore and only restored teh boot from my initial backup.

i am having a hell of a time getting this into a diagnostic mode?? lgs usually dont need to do anything just enable debugging. ive done this i get an lg androidnet modem adn two ports, they appear in qpst but are not listed with an active phone?? can anyone help me with this also spent hours looking for this, im wanting to flash it to cricket and need to change the prl.

hope this is helpful and reduces some peoples searchings for the optimus net lgl45c

LG L45C

I dont have the link, but you can find it at androidarea51 on the OptimusQ thread (lg l55c). It worked on mine. I just followed the directions exactly. Good luck, hope it helps.

Does anyone know where to find a link to a stock or rooted rom for this phone? Mine is rooted and has CWR 5.0.2.7, but is stuck in recovery bootloop. (loaned it to my daughters friend to play games on while i fixed his, he thought he could reset his game when he found settings, factory reset). If anyone could help i would appreciate it, or if anyone knows another way to get this to boot to phone i can go from there. thanks in advance, you guys on XDA are great.

What have you flashed the phone to get a boot loop?

And a warning, when you actually had a Cwm on your phone and you factory reset it, your phone will be bricked.
