OK i couldnt quite figure out how to do it by using super one click shell root and entering all the prompts. BUT...... i was succesfull rooting it through super one click by just pressing "root". now that i have my phone rooted..............WHAT NOW........................what cxan i do i really dont know much about what can b done BUT I AM VERY EAGER TO LEARN. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP with what can now b done with my rooted optimus v
yes if u go even as far as the super one click download and hit root instead of shell root, that will root a newer optimus v. I JUST DID IT LESS THAN 1O MINS AGO and iam allowing super user permissions. i downloaded titanium backup and removed some of the factory apps (scvngr twidroid) SUPER ONE CLICK PERMANENT ROOT WORKS FOR OPTIMUS V (VERGIN MOBIL)
I went through the whole process and it appeared to work. ( I even unmounted and physically removed the SD Card) Then I even checked the files (su and busybox) while I was logged into adb shell to make sure they were transferred, and then I checked em after chmod 4755 su chmod 555 busybox
to make sure their permissions were appropriately modified. They were.
After reboot, I "Successfully Installed Superuser" <--according to my notification window.
And then I downloaded "Titanium Backup" and it said I didn't have root!
I went back and repeated everything many times and searched over the web trying to find an answer, including here in this thread. And then...
All of a sudden, while I was typing this post, it started working! Wow. I'll never know what I did wrong, but I'm crossing my fingers that it "sticks".
Im assuming the sdk and java get installed to your computer and not your phone ? lol? I have to make the directory say android its says glass fish...and I cant find the "android\platform-tools folder created from installing the SDK"
