I came across this when searching for G4 root. https://www.androidroot.us.com/how-to-root-lg-g4/
Has anyone tried this? If not, is there any harm in giving it a shot?
Spam. You'll see root here on XDA before some news article.
Pretty sure that app will tell you the device is not supported once you installed it and all of its malware. I would recommend to run that app in a VM environment and prepare to delete it.
I wouldn't even try it. There is no root for the G4 yet.
Thanks for the advice. I assumed that I'd see it here first when it happened.

Lame. Funny because it says it RIGHT on their front website that it has root. Marketing scheme.
Paid by the click. Genius I say. Lol

Best advice is stick with xda as they are the number 1 trusted site on my list i check the post and google everyday, so far no root. To let u know you may hear or read that there is a root method by jcase. But its not out because he and whoever is a dev working on root is making it safe for us so we dont brick our phones easy. It is really hard as i used to root the old way and boy it was a pain on the htc evo 4g. Just keep checking xda and later u will see root

Ok... I'm one of the idiots that updated to froyo thinking that I would be happy with it and not miss having root. I was wrong. Fat chance that froyo will ever be rooted so maybe its time to buy a phone from someone that hasn't applied the ota. Has anyone been keeping up with the latest developments? Is there a chance that someone will manage to root froyo? I think I know three answer. I had no choice at the time. Phone was rebooting everytime I got a call while already on another call and I couldn't afford to have that happen as I was out of town on business.

Lol. I'm glad a nice and relaxed person got in before the xda mercenaries started screaming for blood.

Lol...i had the same thought.
dude relax lol...... trust me froyo will deff be rooted soon..... nothing is impossible trust me.... its a tough task but these devs are insane
Well sometimes I wonder... If all the noobs installed the ota then why would the leet devs bail them out? Wouldn't it just be easier to keep developing onto whats already been cracked? Thanks for not jumping on me

Well, what about the people that bought their EVOs with 2.2 already.
I would be a super sad panda if I was stuck with an unrooted/unrootable phone.
On the other hand, almost every EVO forum out there has a sticky of this sort: "2.2 NOT ROOTED YET!!!!"

There is no excuse.
I used Rom manager with DamageControlv3.1.2-deodexed.
Took forever to reboot, and had to shut down to finally reboot.
Many processes are stopping unexpectedly, I have no phone dial pad.
what next ??

hmmmmmmm, you start off your thread with a "q" and i can only assume it stands for question. In the evo section we have a section called Q+A....
No offense to the op, but i wish they gave an aptitude test before selling a smartphone. Or at least XDA should implement one before allowing registration?
But to answer your question, just reflash the rom, or another. the rom your using is pretty ancient anyways. Try virus or the new two point two rom. Either is excellent. If you want aosp, go cyan.

Alot of times when you flash a rom it takes a few minutes to initially boot up after you flash. Next time let it sit for like up to 7-10 minutes and see what happens. You might think its locked up or whatever, but its really building the cache and getting things ready for you.
Sorry these other kids has to act like idiots. Seems they all think they are moderators....just ignore the trolls and you will be ok.

lol thats what happens on all sprint phones. with the MSL, you can perform a hard reset, including the data folder. or just using ##3282# wipes ONLY the data folder, none else.

The only ignorant one on here is you lefty or whatever your name is, regardless if he found the youtube post or not it doesn't work but he claims it did. People come on here claiming **** works and it don't, they should just zip their damn lip and wait for the Devs to find a solution. Personally i can care less my phones rooted lol, but I am sick and tired of kids coming on here and posting crap that ain't legit.

Evo 4G 2.3.3 root yet??!!
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
*pulls on his flame retardent suit*
Hmmm....
Sent from my Evo 4G, locked up like Akon, from the premium xda app.
There's just as many hate threads about people asking for root as there are threads for asking about root lol. I swear, does anybody read anything before they post lol ?
Actually, there is root, but we're keeping it a secret from the morons that keep asking, over and over and over without doing simple 12 second SEARCH on the goddamn subject......
No Root................
I wish Stericson was our moderator.

Yes, there is root, but the devs are waiting for 53 more people to post threads asking about it before releasing the new method.
Seriously, search before posting.

This was an epic flaming right here. Anyone who reads this thread should now be aware that people that actually know how to use Google and the search function here on XDA are really tired of lazy asses posting threads about not having root. Also threads asking for root.

On a more serious note...About once every week or two we seem to get one of these threads claiming there's been an official release. Why?
