[ROOT] LG Nitro HD Root Method - *Not working on latest update*

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

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

E98010P Rooting

I usually don't post and I mostly just follow your all direction and accomplish what I need. While doing my research for Rooting my LG Optimus G Pro I have seen that if you have the updated version of the phone you can't root. Now my phone is completely stock 4.1.2, kernel 3.4.0, E98010P. Can someone direct me in the right way or link to a How-to root an E98010P?

I figured out a way to work on my LG Optimus G Pro running 4.1.2 Jelly Bean with E98010p. Watch this Youtube vid, Its a chinese root but he shows you how to make it english.

Just gave this a shot and it worked!!! Really didn't want to go through the hassle of using the flash tool again just to regain root.

Has it worked for everyone whose tried? Any failures?
I'm nervous to try.
I may just do it.

It Works
Thanks JL969u for posting video. Since my phone kept telling me that it is not registered yet any time I tried built in updater I figured I give this a try. I downloaded the BIN_LGE980AT-00-V10p-ATT-US-NOV-22-2013+0.zip, the used LGflashtool to flash to my phone. Then followed direction in the video. Now have E98010P plus root.

this worked great for me on a windows 8.1 pc and e9810p software version no flahing required very easy thanks to the poster of the video

I havent tried this chinese rooting method yet. There was a similar program to root samsung devices but was later taken off xda.. do you guys know that this software is reliable
are there any big differences in 10p and 10k?

worked perfectly. I've used this tool before on an LG L9 and didn't bother uninstalling from my pc

Yeppers!
Just got my phone back from LG. It was acting up so i sent it in for repair and they sent me back a brand new phone ... it came back with the e980p update. I used this way of rooting and it worked perfect. Thanks a million!

If you get update, it will fail in updating due to root. If you are on anything other then sprint. It will fail because of files changed

Sorry this is late.. What is your service provider? Maybe that is why you're not getting updates. Sprint and Boost will OTA update to ZVG which is the lollipop you're looking for. Or you can study the threads to get Cyanogen 12 which is lollipop (5.0.2) based. If you're on a different provider, it's possible your LS980 was flashed to work on their service which makes it ineligible to update to ZVG.

Rooting w/ Kingroot (if it works) is only temproot, as soon as you reboot the phone root is gone. So this tute doesn't really give you the whole process to achieve perm root on your G3.

You have to download the latest version of Kingroot. I think it's 4.9.something. The links on some of the pages are to earlier versions that didn't work for me either. Search for the latest Kingroot version. I don't think it was on the main website.
To be honest I don;'t like Kingroot at all.
It installs it's self as a system app and puts this purify program on (and btw it's a temp root on the LG G3, if you restart , you have to do it again). And it seems to have issues with SuperUser once you flash the ROM. Some appz would get root access and others wouldn't. It was quite annoying. I am waiting for a Stock.zip of MM to come out before I go back to it. For now I would stick to LP 30E Bloatware free. Very easy to root.
And if anyone that is reading this knows how to get MM to stop asking you if you want to wipe your ass for every little thing tell me how to disable it. Every time I connect it to my PC, it's like "are you sure you want to allow USB connection?". No I slipped and it plugged in all by it's self! Even when doing some of the most basic stuff, it asks 'Allow' or 'Deny'? Extremely annoying. The only thing that is a plus is the Bluetooth function. It doesn't ask you to enter the '0000' or '11111' code when connecting different devices like it does on LP, KK, JB, and ICS.
Edit: The Kingroot version that worked for me was NewKingrootV4.9.6_C151_B329_en_release_2016_09_30.apk. I think the one on the Kingroot website is older and named "NewKingrootV4.9.6_C151_B309_en_release_2016_08_18_105203.apk". Just do a search for the former and it should work to temp Root MM. Remember, if you restart the phone the Root will go away.
Once you temp root it, download TWRP's latest version, twrp-3.0.0-0-d851.img or what ever and put it in the phones main directory. Then download the terminal emulator that has the green android fella on it from the play store and type these commands in:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp-3.0.0-0-d851.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
reboot recovery
(Just make sure in the line "dd if=/sdcard/twrp-3.0.0-0-d851.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery" you type the name of the TWRP img you put in the phone.

Kingroot 4.1 can root Kitkat/LP but not Marshallow. I tried Kingroot 5.2 on MM did not work either so I end up downgrade to KK/LP and root it. Then can flash custom roms. For MM I seen method on other forum just a bit complicated to do it.

Try this method from PonchosoftX and if it's unclear, then I'm sure that he would be glad to help. Perhaps if you're successful, then post any tips or tricks in this thread.
