Make sure when you are in the file explorer that you aren't trying to access /emulated/0/Download. There was a file system change that I've found with 4.3 that links a lot of things to the emulated folder.
Manually go into /storage/sdcard0/download
Should work fine. If not let us know.

Hi all,
I've uploaded this root method because it is the only way I have been able to get root on the first try every time.
Your results may vary. If you don't get it first try, just try again.
Here are the methods I have tried and had fail:
UnlockRoot
Doomlord v1
Doomlord v4
TPSparky
SuperOneClick (Any Version)
So here you go! Here is a method that I have had 100% success with. I will be editing the script to try and make it more clean and less work on your part in the future. I will post new versions on this thread when I get them done.
Required Downloads
LG Nitro HD Root.zip
Enabling Root Rights
Enable USB Debugging and Unknown Sources.
Unzip the zip file to the location of your choice.
Run the file named “Root.bat”.
Follow the instructions on in the CMD window.
Notes
Here is a list of the apps that I have found will brick your Nitro if removed:
AT&T Address Book
AT&T Navigator
Google Play Books*
Google Play Movies*
Google Play Music
Google Play Store/Market
removal of at&t addressbook and navigator doesn't brick your device !
i confirm this !

Thank you for your input. But, I have removed both of them individually and bricked it. Also, several others have reported in other threads that it has. I believe it just depends on how much luck you have.
Just tried... no worky.
Again, I am trying to root on 2.3.5. Zerg fails, SOC wont make it past rebooting adb...

Matt your instructions for root say to extract from zip, root.bat. But your link takes me to a apk root file not a zip file...
can you be more specific or maybe the link is misdirected?
are you saying this is a root method via apk from phone?
IM starting to remember why I sold my g2x....nothing changes eh LG??

But as to what? Run the apk on your pc o_0
His directions say dl zip, yet there is no zip it directs you to a page that looks like what may have been in the zip? Still not clear
The apk root ...it shows up on the phone but still unclear.
Need the link fixed or to be clarified please Mattman when you get a chance thank you.
Edit: is the zip you were refering to the lg tool that reverts you to v18f ?
If so will this work on official ics release via lg tool.
Thanks again in advance
Sent from my LG-P930 using Tapatalk 2
Terribly sorry... The privacy settings on my Google Drive must have been reset somehow.
I've fixed it so that the zip should show now.
But it now says that you have binned the file. It works right, doesn't it?
Mattman your script isnt working.
When I hit "any key to continue" it flashes..but its not flashing anything.
Cmd window turns off (checked process not running at all)
nothing happens.
No instructions , nothing. cmd. window just exits.
so guesse thats another brick wall for root on lg updated firmware to ics.
Mattman sorry but this method does not work.
Or I should say it did not work for me.
I even put togewther my own rendition of your files that you compiled still would not work.
In fact I am now convinced the ONLy root method for the nitro running it the one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30209937#post30209937
Im not saying anything against your method, it looks solid, but it would not work.
I tried it on v20c and v18f.
I now have root but want to say your efforts and work are appreciated.
I hope this is not considering hijacking the thread I wanted to post this for others with the same issues.
EDIT: Mattman I been searching through the threads and seen that you initialy used this method off of 2.3.6? Meaning you rooted from 2.3.6? ( from the cwm thread you came up with a way via script to run cwm) I am wondering maybe your method only works from 2.3.6? what firmware did you originally root from?
i tried this method on my v20c and my wife is not working.. and never get root??
please help me

I think the Rogers file is corrupt. I have tried downloaded several times and tried different software like latest version of winrar and 7zip, but none is able to extract the file.

Sorry I cannot post in that thread. But please help if there is a mirror site for download like the other versions.
Thanks and sorry if this is not the correct place to post this.
Just wondering if other Rogers users also have this problem, thanks..

I downloaded the file, extracted with 7-zip, and installed without any problems. Perhaps the file is getting corrupted during download.

I also downloaded and followed the instructions and it is working perfectly so far. Not a problem at all.

I had the same problem but was able to figure it out. Don't download with Chrome. Download with Internet Explorer and it'll work.

I used his zip, it's fine. Sometimes you just can't get a good download. I have 60mbps at home and the first thing i always do is test the zip.

Broken how? The image appears to be intact to me.
Go to sammobile.com and pick your Roms in firmware tab.

That probably just means you don't have 7zip or something else capable of extracting .7z files on your computer.
Should be fine I was doing it to my friends phone last night just make sure you have 7zip installed and right click the file and extract
I am on 4.1.2 Jellyverse v3.0 but that isn't that important...on the play Store, I can download (almost) any app, but with a few apps when I download them I get an error (see attached photo). I've read up, looking for fixes, one talks of deleting a file within ".android_secure" but there's nothing in the folder. Anyone else run into this issue and if so how did you fix it?
Thanks!

Have you tried un-mounting your sd card, install the app, then remount the sd card? Can't remember the other fixes but that was a common work around. I'll try to locate the other threads for reference..

If it's not too late from now, you could try to flash THIS RECOVERY in Mobile Odin Lite, but it will still result in being unable to install to USB or SD Card. Then, reboot into that recovery and flash the recovery listed below in the attachments field, and it should fix everything for you. I had this issue myself and was helped by graydiggy through the process. Here's the thread I got help in just in case you need more detailed instructions. THREAD
Thanks, I appreciate the help! But yeah, I've already solved this problem that's to help from BluesRulez
