[Q] Rooting ICS 4.0.4 V20d ? - LG Nitro HD

Hi everyone,
I just registered but have been reading some of the stuff on here for a while.
Anyway, I have a Korean LG Optimus 4G LTE (Nitro HD) and just updated to ICS 4.0.4. I'd like to root it so I can clean it up a little and maybe modify some stuff, but the guides online don't refer to my exact software version.
My question is, will the root guides/software for V20e software work on my Korean V20d phone? Does the software version really matter?
Thanks

use this method it works on p930 and should work on v20d too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

Thanks for the suggestion, but is there a way to do it without re-flashing the ROM (and losing all my data)?

with that method you dont loose any of your datas and you dont need to re flash your rom
there is a Video Tutorial , its very simple just follow the instructions .

I gave it a go, and after a lot of messing around to get the phone working with a Mac/VMware, it's now rooted! Thanks for the link :good:

Me too.....who can help us?
There's a Super One Click root that works. You just have to be persistent with it. It will fail a few times, but if you keep at it, it will eventually succeed. So far, noone seems to know what the pattern is, it just works.
Has anyone verified the method? I have been trying for a while and it still doesnt work....hope others have better luck

look there and please next time use the search button of this forum.
you need root to install CM9.
Thanks for the quick response, I did look at that thread however I am hesitant to do the unbrick method. Is there any manual method/other way I can do it?

nope. You have to flash a new KDZ file alltogether because the Telus one is unrootable.
Once you get your head around the 'unbricking method', there is really nothing to it.
or you can wait till Telus releases the next update, and hope that it is rootable.
Sorry to be a hassle but could you give me a noob type rundown on how to do this

unfortunately the bootloader isnt unlocked so we cant flash custom roms to the og pro...from other users it seems that that is true of the international versions as well. next time a lil digging might save u the trouble of asking. there is rooting available so u can make some tweaks...at least for the att version. havent looked into weather it would work on other versions, maybe a dev will answer that for u. as for the docomo gui, the simplest answer to that is just install nova launcher or go launcher or some other launcher and use those themes, i used to use go launcher a lot and it has tons of customizations and controls u can tweak.
That current root method should work for all versions of this phone.
Oh
Thanks for your answers,
1) so the versions for the F220K doesn't fit to the L-04e?
2) can someone give me a link to the root method? (i afraid to make mistake...)
3) the docomo is not only gui it takes control also on the Contacts and some of the features that google usually do.
Thanks!

thats the root for this device. again i would advice not to try flashing any roms...so far from whats been discussed in the bootloader unlock forum flashing will either brick ur device or it'll force a factory reset and all u'll do is wipe ur phone. we're almost to the point of being able to flash roms soon tho so give it a lil time. as for docomo pretty much trying to control ur phone, its still a droid, u can install apps to do cover everything pretty much. i rooted mine and loaded a different texting app and got rid of the one included by lg/att. as for contacts u can download different apps to manage contacts and dialers. i had mentioned go launcher before, they also have go contacts that is a customizable contact app, they hae their own text app too...so u dont have to use the docomo provided apps, even if u dont root it

That unroot method should work for all versions of the phone. If you do some digging you will find it is actually the same root method for the Optimus G.

Yes i tried, famaroot not working on this phone (((
Works for L-04e
Update, way too late. I got a message saying I had successful rooted. It in actuality had not worked. Still looking to root it.
Sorry for the incorrect information and late update.
Originally I wrote:
I just got root on an Optimus G Pro L-04e NTT DoCoMo. Followed instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006946. It took me a couple of tries as I probably did something wrong, but I am now rooted.
I also tried FeeGee (paid version referenced in the above link) to get get the boot-loader unlocked. That hasn't worked for me. I started to do the more complicated manual version noted at the above link, but it looked like it was going to try to do the same thing and so gave up while I was still ahead.
I hope the bootloader unlock becomes available soon.
Thanks for the rooting information. i didnt try rooting yet.
i also hope that the bootloader will be unlocked soon

Downgrade From Lollipop to KitKat for Root

Hello everyone!
I'm reading all the guides on the net but im confused.
I have a d855 vith v20a, and i want to install custom rom for remove the lag and other nice things.
BUT.
I've seen that lollipop isn't rootable so i have to Downgrade to kitkat and then use PurpleDrake, right?
And after this i have to flash with Flashify a Bumped TWRP?
I've download this file : D85510g_00.kdz. I have to flash this with LG FLASH TOOL 2014 Right?
Wich setting should i have to use with this program?
And..there isn't something like a bootloader to unlock or something?
Thank you a lot all.

It is important, to download the right firmware. Here is another site to choose from, hust to make sure its the correct one: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/
The correct settings are in the LG Flash tool thread, you don't need do divert from those.

All of them are named like that what you need to pay attention to is the prefix it has, which in your case will be either A6IT or AHIT (surprisingly with a country code at the end), depending on which version of the G3 you have.
The A6IT is for the 16gig variant, downloadable from here, and the AHIT is the 32gig variant, downloadable from here.

H815L root?

Hello XDA.. I own an LG G4 (H815L Variant), and I am very interested in rooting my G4 H815L (Israeli variant).
however, I am extremely unsure whether any of the available rooting methods will work with this variant (by rooting I mean that I also need to unlock the bootloader and TWRP)
anyone know if any of the currently available methods will work with this model? as far as I know, from trying, the official method does not work just yet with the H815L.
thanks in advance to anyone who can answer.
yes i have it and rooted with no problem, follow the guide on the original android development forum.

nevermind, figured it myself. thanks for the help! this post can be closed.
I made a rooted rom for H815L based on the Israeli 10c version & running it on my phone since yesterday.
Everything is like stock including all regional features (like RTL alignment & Hebrew on dialer)

Well I did not use the official method. I used the method presented at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765/
followed instructions to the letter, while downloading the drivers which are labeled: "All G4 (except Verizon) - http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime...Ver_3.14.1.exe"
and the Command to run I used was:
"International H815 10c Version (NOT H815T, H815TR, H815P, etc - you will lose internationalization and possibly features):
Code:
dd if=/data/media/0/system.rooted.H81510c-EU.img bs=8192 seek=55296 count=529920 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0
using these with the instructions the OP wrote in that post just got my phone rooted.
I do recommend that you do a little more research before attempting... would feel bad if you got your phone bricked.... cause as you can see, in the command to run he mentions not to try it one the H815P...
you better ask him which command to run you need to use before committing to this method.
I wish you luck friend!

From what I understood... the "etc" meant that all the H815 variants (H815L , H815T, H815P, and so...) can be considered as "NOT"
Did you notice anything wrong after doing it? Everything fine?
