Welcome to Android Central. I've edited your post as we do not allow profanity. Also, an exceeding number of exclamation points and all caps usually is not a good way to get a response to your thread. And we have a special section for rooting related subjects, which is where I'm moving your thread. Good luck with your problem.

You prob just need to switch USB ports. ADB will only work on the #1 port on your computer. Try the directions and switch USB ports until you find the one that works. Then use that one for anything in ADB. On a PC it's likely the top port on the back, on a laptop, your guess is as good as mine.

You probably have the V6 software. To check, go to Settings-About Phone and scroll to SW Version. If it says VS910ZV6 then you can't root. The latest software has blocked root somehow and no exploit has been found to my knowledge.

You'll just have to wait for the guys at xda developers to finish their CM7 port or for the Gingerbread update like the rest of us. Whenever that is.

you need to try to update your phone to 2.3.4 which is the gingerbread

AFAIK, Android 2.2.2 Froyo cannot be rooted on the LG Revolution. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I've tried almost every root method out there, with no success.
