To install you need a root explorer app
Then you copy both files to the system/app folder...
Fix permissions and see what happens...
Make sure you make a back up just in case it breaks something...

I don't think anyone's experienced a hard brick from free gee. But anything you do is at your own risk obviously. There are a lot of helpful people here and on the optimus g IRC so chances are whatever you do can be fixed. In any case good luck.

Alright everyone. Here is a stock ZVB rooted ROM you can flash. I recommend you flash in TWRP because that is all I have tested.
You must be Freegee unlocked
You do not need ZV9, this ZIP can be flashed clean.
It can also be flashed on top of ZV9 to upgrade it, wipe system before flashing.
I also recommend wiping system, cache, and dalvik cache in TWRP before flashing
I also recommend flashing the radio update prior to this. This can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176186
Information:
Odex
V1.25 SuperSu
1.19.0 Busybox
ROM Link: http://goo.im/devs/TheShadow/geehrc/ZVB-Stock-Rooted.zip

Hit the Imperium thread and you'll see why.
After Shelnutt stopped being dumb and corrected Freegee (heh) I decided I was going to upgrade last night, but since it took 1.5 hrs to donwload everything, I wound up having to get to bed before I was able to apply the updates.
Perfect timing on this! Thanks so much. Can't wait to get home.
This is what dreams are made of! Thanks for everyone and their hard work. Downloading now

You have to be rooted and use Freegee to back up EFS unless your smart and know how to use ADB method ( I dont use it) I just use freegee. You cant find the EFS with an file explorer.

i think there a easier way
just use titanium backup to convert superuser to system app
Here is your root in english, no need to watch video.
Supersu has been uploaded too.
After root install superSU and do as promted, it will remove the installed root app.
Now go to apps and uninstall the chinese app that vroot installed.
For OCD clearance do a wipe ?

Well the problem with vroot is that it supposedly Logs and uploads IMEI Numbers to servers in china(possibly). The idea around that is well they could use those IMEI numbers to take a stolen phone or Chinese phone and give it the uploaded US IMEI and then create a activation outside of the US.
