Re: Finally!4.1.2 can be rooted.

it needs to add a busybox with the file
just wait a while for more testers success
that would be better.

good news know LG OG KR version can be rooted @ Android 4.1.2:D:D:D

Doesnt work
Also:
echo 1¡¢connect the USB cable from the phone and the computer.
Ok
echo 2¡¢turn the phone's usb debug off.
You cant turn it off while the phone is connected to PC
echo 3¡¢turn the phone's usb debug on.
You cant turn it on either
echo 4¡¢connect the USB cable from the phone and the computer.
So when i should disconnect it?

Ok, its worked :)

Problem was: the root confirmation windows appeared with a very, very loong delay. So the catlog said there no root.
Now all fine, thank you :)

Re: Finally!4.1.2 can be rooted.

It was rootable since day one. It's just that it was not publicized because we were afraid they would patch it when they released JB for North America.

I had the f180k version rooted before I made a system dump...

Now hopefully it doesn't get patched.

Hah, that would be terrible if LG fix it with next update cause the international version rolling out next week so there should be some quick OTA updates.

Also, since you knew the way to root, do you have a DZExtract modification (Or any other app) which can unpack the F180K .dz file?

no,i don't have that tool.someone told me,if we can extract .dz file,the phone's rooting method will be easy.but he doesn't have that tool after all,actually,no one has that tool,because it never exist.

That korean guy wrote the problem is DZextract cant recognize header of F180 .dz, but the container format is still same.
So, i think they probably already assembled a modded DZExtract.

Unfortunately not. I was helped by the devs on IRC on how to root. But I reverted back because network would not work on my E971.
