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.

Thanks... it works beautifully!
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.

I had OTA update earlier that means i am on 4.1.2 (E97320e)
Does it have an impact if i want to install CM 10.1 ? or when you get to the bootloader what version of android you had before makes no difference?
Thanks !!
Freegee doesn't work to unlock the bootloader on LG's version of JB (4.1.2). To unlock the bootloader, you have to KDZ downgrade back to 4.0.4 first.
And most custom ROMs won't boot if you flash overtop of anything but 4.0.4.

Just go GomdoLight you can read guide there
As for sms limit nobody in the world bother to fixed that under F180 so go E975 you will experience a little dull mobile network and some little problems with CM even Custock because all of this ROM was base on E975 except GomdoLight

You can install aosp based rom search in lg g pro forum and you will find a lot of roms or you can install stock based rom for e988 like sphinx rom
Or xitrom ..... If you want to install e975 rom you should install the correct kernel and modem for e988 but sure do a backup first for your curent rom ( sorry for my weak english )
