[How-To] Rooting LS670ZVD with GingerBreak (no reverting and OTA works too!)

[drewwalton19216801]

Need help my phone does not connect to pc even if adb is on on the phone.cant root my phone with it not connecting .but it shows its charging.

1) ADB isn't something you install to your phone.
2) Do you have the correct drivers installed?

Try the LG Mobile Support tool. Just install it and when it opens click "USB Driver" and choose the right one (Sprint LS670).

Did you install the correct drivers like I said?

type exit to leave the adb shell before trying to push gingerbreak using adb push

LOL - thanks! I forgot to exit the shell and will try tonight!

Okay I know I am close! but I need a little help...I got the # prompt briefly (i think i followed the directions correctly)... then hit exit and the prompt went back to $...
I know i need to do the recovery first, but haven't had any luck...how to get back to #?
I only get $ doing ./adb shell
See below:

[!] dance forever my only one
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /system /system
# cd /data/local/tmp
# cat su > /system/bin/su
# cat busybox > /system/bin/busybox
# cat Superuser.apk > /data/app/Superuser.apk
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
# exit
$ exit

Thanks!

Thank you so much for this. I've been wanting to root my phone for awhile now.

Re: [How-To] Rooting LS670ZVD with GingerBreak (no reverting and

Okay, so I have done a backup...
Can someone point me to the right thread (My brain is mush- been reading al the threads and now can't find my way back to where I should be)
1-I want to get rid of all the sprint bloatware! (is there a thread of how to do this and which files should not be removed?)
2-should i install a ROM first?
3- Thank you for all the help- the forum is truely kind to newbies and i for one appreciate it!

Re: [How-To] Rooting LS670ZVD with GingerBreak (no reverting and

Ok, I'm running into a few problems, probably self-inflicted, but any guidance would be appreciated...

I unzipped the exploit contents into its own directory, and ran adb from there.

I copied the necessary files over to the tmp directory and chmodded to 777, no problems. I let the Gingerbreak app run for about 10 minutes, never got root. So, I attempted to mount the file system, and got an "operation not permitted" error.

Any ideas what I'm missing or leaving out?

TIA

Ok, this thread is way tooo long! So, I ended up using Gingersnap to root my phone last night. Ended up having to use an XP computer rather than Windows 7. Thanks for the info.

 

[jondevere]

Lol... I just posted on how rom manager is not for our phone. Read that post. Also yes you flash it thru recovery
