Just bought a LG E975 with 4.1.2 but I can't seem to find any guide on rooting that works for it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

if its an E975 running JB it sounds like its already rooted seeing as no official 4.1.2 has been released yet for that model unless that's the korean model . I could be wrong though. Wouldn't be the first time. Check in app drawer for super user icon.

You can root it with the method posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2112190
Might take a few tries but it works as I tried it on the E975 KDZ a couple of times.
Then download busybox from market.

Now I think to think of how to fastboot recovery into this phone. Can't seem to be able to enter it..
This LG phone sure is a learning curve for a former Samsung s3 user

Maybe jump on the IRC channel and ask for the E975 freegee if available. It will unlock bootloader and inject cwm for you. Then you just reflash a newer cwm version which can be found in the AT&T section.

Hi,
i have red different things about how to root an e975.
So i have a few questions before to root my phone.
Is there a better method than another to root my optimus G?
Is there a way to unroot it easily later?
If i unroot it, will it be exactly the same as a never-rooted optimus g?
Will it be possible to update officially my phone when an update will be available? (with root? unrooted?)
thanks for your answers
the easiest way is to use motochopper to unroot, after u need to unlock the boot loader with freegee available on the mp...
now you re ready to flash a new ROM.
at your own risk....
ask yourself what u want to achieve with root... if you want to get the last stock lg experience, you don't need to root.

Any chance this means we'll see some of its Neato software features ported?
(that is, assuming LG won't at some point do something similar)
You may want to put in big red letters at the top not to flash this on our OG.
I know it says so in post 3... but you know how people read.
Just trying to save you from the inevitable "it bricked my phone" posts.
can we flash just the modem?

i think the apk related to some launcher or something needs to be found , as probably the wallpapers will be integrated in the launchers apk.. so u can have more luck as by just looking for the files related to launcher ..

On my e970 this modem broke external (main speaker) audio. No audible ring tones, and music wouldn't play. In call (ear piece) audio worked, but suffered significant delay/latency... But I was testing by calling my wife in another room in the house, both on our microcell... so not the most reliable testing environment. I was running houstonn's rootbox.

You have 2 options
1.flash stock rom with kdz updater.this is the safest,but it has 2 drawbacks,it takes alot and it wipes phone content.
2.use unroot option from superuser app.but this method has been reported to create problems.

Depends on phone hassan.When i was using stock rom, the update couldn't be installed when i was rooted when unlocked.I was able to see the update,it showed i installed it, but,after reboot, nothing changed. So yes, some need unroot to update.

Hello guys,
i d like to know whats the procedure for flashing a rom on the OGP e986, as i am new to lg devices and cant really find a thread for the e986..
I should inform you that i am pretty familiar with rom/recovery flashing,rooting devices etc.
So,should i flash any rom for the e98x and then flash the right modem for my device?Or should i flash a rom made for my exact model only?
Also,will i have the ir bluster functionality as on stock rom in custom roms?
Thanks for your time and help.
Ok so i succesfully rooted using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2362657 ,and also backed my efs and changed my recovery using FreeGee..So im ready to start flashing roms..Any answers to my previous questions?Thanx

When you launch freegee it automatically downloads supported devices list..If e986 was not supported it would automatically exit..Try for yourself.
