New KitKat root

Hello there! As you know, the new 4.4.2 update come out not so long ago, and i need root (and i think not only me :D). So if you can, please update impactor that will work with KitKat. BTW, i used this before update, worked fine.

I second this motion... I've recently got a d605 (was redirected here with it for rooting), only to find out, that it won't work with 4.4.2...

??

Hey guys, I'm new to rooting android, JDK, and working through linux.. so sorry for my lack of know-how..

Anyways, I downloaded both the 32bit and 64bit versions of this program for Linux, but when I click on the file "Impactor" nothing happens..

What am I doing wrong? I extracted all files to the desktop, plugged in my lgms769, turned on usb debugging. but nothing happens?

Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Any help is appreciated. I've been trying to root this device for the last month in my free time, but have not had any luck! Frustrating, especially because it's such a great phone and all I want to do is move it to my new t mob carrier... ahh. :eek:

How do I know if it worked?

How do I check if everything was successful? I was trying to move my facebook app to the external SD using Link2sd but it said it can't.

The message is...
App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card.

    Rooting method for L3II,L5,L5II,L7,L7II,L9,L9II

    Credits:
    Masterkey exploit tool has been released by Saurik on his website http://cydiaimpactor.com all thanks to him.

    Code:
    I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
    thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
    before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

    Requirements:
    • Computer
    • USB Cable

    Procedure:
    1. Install latest LG Driver installed (available on LG website).
    2. Enable Developer Options on you Android device.
    3. Connect your device to the computer throught the USB cable.
    4. Download Cydia Impactor from http://www.cydiaimpactor.com .
    5. Extract the zip and run impactor.exe (with administrator right if you are on vista or later).
    6. Click on start.
    7. Wait some seconds
    8. Reboot
    9. Go to PlayStore and install SuperSu or get APK from ApkMirror

    Tested Working on:

    Recents updates:
    Like some users reported LG fixed both masterkey exploit used by impactor to get root, so if you are running a recent firmware or you took an OTA this method may not work, impactor will return "SIGNATURE BUGS UNAVAILABLE"

    Alternatives:
    Look at Framaroot or TowelRoot

    Cool, worked on my cousins stock P769. Much better/faster, and easier than the original root method.
