[Q] Root after the new April update for LG P930/LG Nitro HD

---

I'm tyring to root my LG Nitro HD after I updated it to software version LG-P930-V10j-FEB-26-2012. Can I even root? Is there a way to root? If neither, could a very awesome dev find a way around the update? I would be eternally grateful.

Sorry, there is no way to root for now. I‘ve tried all of the methods. If it‘s so critically to you, come back to stock rom before update.

How do you go back to stock ROM?

Figure if you really want to root then do a factory reset.

Nevermind, just realized that won't reset the update... I think we're screwed!!! On top of that, I think messing around trying to get my phone to root has really slowed it down too.

I thought mine slowed down a lot after attempting root processes over and over water I believe happens is the RAM gets clogged (I saw it a lot wen flashing different firmwares wen I was in the PSP hacking scene) so wat I did is just let my battery die all the way out and leave it dead for awhile maybe even take the battery out wen it dies for the RAM to clear

From what I have been able to find out we are not totally screwed... you need to use the "unbrick" guide found here. But I have not had any luck with this because I do not have Windows (I use OSX and Fedora Linux).

If anyone can figure out how to do this with either that would be awesome

Yeah I've been trying to follow the unbricking method that Machzelet posted but I can't get one of the programs to open in Windows 7.

Guys, all you need to do is to carefully read the guide and carry out step by step, as they have written.

UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe

Hey I'm just having this huge problem with UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe not running at all. I can't get it to open no matter what I do. XP Compatibility, Run as Administrator, nothing works. Otherwise the guide was going very well. Everything seemed to work perfect up until that point.
