[SOLVED]First time

I've never rooted a phone before, I was always content with the preloaded/ downloadable apps from the Play store... From the looks of it, Rooting is done from the computer. Guessing this isn't something I can do on my phone. Any recommendations/tips for a first time rooter?

    Now accepting donations to get my own LG G3 ;)

    How-to:

    1 Run ioroot.bat, ioroot.sh, ioroot.tool and follow the onscreen directions.

    Extended info and FAQ below...

    Windows Drivers:
    Verizon Drivers - HERE
    Drivers for everyone else - HERE


    Download and extract the latest ioroot.zip... datroot.zip is inside the bts folder.
    ioroot also jailbreaks other LG devices. Supported devices are found in the device list in this thread.
    Enable "USB Debugging" on phone. Accept RSA certificate to allow ADB access. Not accepting RSA will cause ADB device to show as "offline"
    Verizon users must also enable "Ethernet" for USB mode.

    Windows:
    Install drivers.
    Double-click on ioroot.bat in ioroot folder.

    Linux:
    Open terminal and cd into /ioroot/ folder
    chmod +x ioroot.sh
    ./root.sh

    Mac:
    double-click on ioroot.tool* in ioroot folder.

    ** may need to chmod +x the file first.


    FAQ
    Q: Will this jailbreak other LG devices?
    A: It will jailbreak any LG device which can be booted into stock recovery with menu. Confirmed devices are found in the device list in this thread.

    Q: Why do I see an android with a red x or just reboot when I try to get into recovery?
    A: Your device has a lame recovery and may have issues jailbreaking w/current IOroot 4.4.2.

    Q: Will this root non-LG devices?
    A: Probably not.

    Q: The script doesn't work for me, can you help?
    A: No, use terminal to manually enter the commands or ask for help in the thread.

    Q: I can't get 'adb devices' to see me phone, can you help?
    A: learn2android

    Q: Know any hip places to hang out and talk with other rad people about the LG G Flex?
    A: Check us out on IRC: #lg-g-flex on Freenode

    It was based on the original adb backdoor found by GiantPune and later [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2169117"]posted by jcase[/URL].
    The script has grown to run on Windows, Linux and OSX and support various other LG devices on Android 4.0 - 4.4.2... 
    Supported devices include LG Optimus G, G2, G3, G Pro, G Pro 2, G Flex, G Pad, L70, L80, L90, G2 mini and more.

    Changelog:

    as suspected.. it was just a change to a file name... I was 1 letter off from what I was testing with people on IRC. Doh!
    thx to @wolfgart for the tot.

    Members, Thread Cleaned and addressed....there will be no selling/requiring "donations" via XDA. Thank you.

    i missed everything.. who was asking for donations?

    most likely the reason anyone was asking for $$ was because there is a chinese site that sells the tot files for $10-$20... so unless someone pays up.. the tot/kdz file will have to leak. The owner of the chinese site has direct LG Service Center access. I had similar access until recently when LG patched up their server holes :angel:
    If this was indeed the case of why $$ was asked for... you can't be mad at that. If someone is going out of their way to grab a file that requires $$.. certainly he shouldnt have to come out of pocket for it. If this is not the case... then I agree that's wrong and should not be tolerated.

    if anyone works in an AT&T service/repair center they may have access to the tot. Tot files are for official repair/service centers.
    KDZ files are the firmware files for us lowly consumers. It is up to AT&T to decide if you get a KDZ file. AFAIK the G2 never had an official KDZ... so not sure if AT&T will release a KDZ for the flex.. but we can hope. :fingers-crossed:

    As for the kdz/tot extractor you've all been poking at... you NEED an actual tot or kdz file to run the scripts on.. it is not to run with your phone :p

    A system dump will not help root. As I've previously said.. I need the aboot and boot partitions... you can only access these with root.. or if you pull them from a kdz/tot.

    Root will come... it's not a question of if... just when :good:
