im sorry for the mix up but the only way i have sucessfully rooted the lg optimus dynamic and lg optimus logic was following this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1963232 i have not personally tried the one click method on this device but the tutorial in the link is pretty straight forward and worked like a charm as far as tethering goes i am also in a situation that i have to rely on my phone for primary internet source i have not been kicked off the network but they have throttled my speed quite a bit but after me downloading large files like crazy so i kinda get it im going to refill the card in a few days and well see if my speed is also renewed as far as tethering apps go i have been using pdanet / foxfi [wifi dosent work but bluetooth dose] / easytether [you have to pay to get full feature ] /and after root android wifi tether works i use this everyday getting on xbox live downloading and surfing and i feel like for once i am getting what i pay for from a phone company although like i said if you get too crazy they will throttle you i was watching crackle on xbl with no buffering when i first got the phone but once i was throttled i have found streaming anything is nearly impossible so im just hoping that they reset my speed when i renew and im gonna not get so crazy on the downloading this time and see how it goes once again sorry for the mix up and i hope some of this info helpsThank you, Momerat99, for clarifying re: Apps2SD and for confirming that the One-Click root works for the Dynamic as well.
Have never personally rooted a device and so am a bit wary of trying. But am recalling that in my early computer days (early-mid '80s), before Mac and long before Windows, we worked at root level almost all the time. So I shouldn't be so wary, I think.
My current tablet was delivered to me rooted and with Uberoid installed. I've enjoyed the benefits of the "rooting": but did not gain the understanding or experience of doing the actual rooting.
Live off the grid and the only phone service available to me is cell via Verizon working off the old Alltel tower. Have been waiting and waiting for Straight Talk (and related America Movil companies) to offer a smart phone that would work on Verizon. So glad that such an affordable one is now available. (Likewise, only real internet available to me is via a wireless co-op with speeds limited to about 1 MB/s up and down.)
Am tempted to tether to the Dynamic and see what speeds I can get. But don't want to risk getting booted off Straight Talk for doing so since then I would be without phone at home (from which I also work). No landline here. Phone company wanted $35,000 to run landline cable to me in '02 and I opted not to pay that. Back then, Alltel was in business and delivered strong, reliable 5-bar cell here..
I actually may not get great speeds via the phone at home. Will have to find out. Before the wireless co-op, I was using a Verizon "aircard" for internet. It delivered speeds faster than typical dial-up but not fast enough to stream a YouTube video or allow a Skype conversation. That was in '03-'04 era. Same card, same laptop, in major cities while on the road, delivered what I considered blazing fast speeds back then. Think I clocked it at 800 kbps then in New Orleans and Phoenix and in several other cities. It MAY be that the Verizon data signal still will be poor here on my land. Will have to find out. My property is 12 miles from the tower, but I have clear line of sight. I notice no difference in speed here and in town using Verizon's funky, very slow "mobile web" on Straight Talk on my current non-Android phone.
Looking forward to finding out and to making a Dynamic work like it should. Will probably be back with more questions as I begin fiddling with it. Going to pick it up next trip to Albuquerque -- sometime in the next week.
Grateful for the help.
