LG Revolution has been Rooted, Good Bye Bing. - Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog

For those of you that picked up an LG Revolution yesterday, you should know that our boys over at RoozWiki have already rooted it. It looks like LG left this one pretty wide open to that old rageagainstthecage exploit, making it easily rooted by pushing a couple of files in adb. Time to remove that Bing!
Cheers Andy!

this is great, i saw it but i dont see an unroot method yet. we need some devs over here to get this thing rolling, i think the lg is the best of the lte phones for verizon. i returned my charge yesterday because it was too buggy. lg so far it is smooth. it has excellent potential. my buddy returned his thunderbolt because of the battery and reboot issues. the bad publicity and lack of advertising may hurt the revolution. people are claiming they would not buy it because of bing (this cant be logical), but should know that google search can be downloaded from the market with google maps and it can be used as a default search engine.

how can we tell xda developers to open a forum for the lg revolution, i dont even this they acknowledged that the phone even exist.

Battery life is my biggest concern. Need to hear more input. 2.5 days sounds too good to be true and would like a few more opinions. Really want to make my decision on one after work today. I had the Tbolt and returned for the chance to choose another. Been wanting the Charge for awhile now for it's battery and Display but the processing is worrying me. But now the Rev's looks pretty dang good to me now with the available storage, smooth ops and Netflix and a 2100 quadrant test. Are you kidding me, The dual core droid x2 scored about that on one of the videos I saw. Add 4G to that and the Rev is looking pretty dang good to me, bing or no bing. Battery, battery, battery is the key though. Keep the reviews coming please. Today's the day for me.

probably a good idea to stop using quadrant as a comparison unless the phones have the same resolution, which in this case they don't. Quadrant runs at the native resolution of the phone.
