Accepting an OTA update un-roots your phone so all those apps that require root no longer work. You're going to have to root again.

If you're lucky, updating unroots the phone. Some phones just won't update if they're rooted - the update fails until you reflash the stock ROM.

What version of the phone do you have (Sprint, Verizon, etc.)?

The latest updates on most carriers broke existing root methods. In order to root, you'll need to use the LG Flashtool and a PC to revert to an older version of the ROM, then reroot. Then you can probably find a pre-rooted version of the update to install.
