Rooting my LG Optimus L7 - Optimus 7 General

Hey guys,
This is my first post on the forums, anyways, I've searched up multiple sites on trying to root the LG Optimus L7 including this website.
I have tried this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664322
and tried downgrading to V10a but it didn't work.
Phone stuff:
Model Number: LG-P705G
Android Version 4.0.3
Baseband Version: MSM7227A-1-AA
Software Version: V10c-May-10-2012
Please help!

Read it carefully!
Many members has succeed to root the L7 using method in the first page. V10c India and Indonesian version for model P705 can rooted directly use the rooting tools provided.
Ensure you do it exactly as described there

Have you checked usbdebugging mode? Install from unknown source? Disable LG modem in the PC device manager? Using correct firmware? (v10a europe open or v10 c indonesia).
Important thing! You should push enter while you have seen the locked screen while use LG.L7 Rooting Tools

The only thing I'm not sure about in that list is the firmware, I have v10c but I don't know from where.

Root tools cannot work that way. You must patched the system.img.ext4 with rooted one while flashing it. Follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31247149. It can root any firmware!!!

Hey guys, I rooted my cell phone a little time ago, and i just realized that there's a new method to do so with a new version of KDZ. so i decided to download it, and prepared everything to install it, but whenever i try to connect my cell phone to the PC I cannot make windows to "detect" the device in emergency mode, i've tried witH vol+, vol+ vol-, but they haven't worked. I've tried it with a lot of different Pcs, and different architectures (x64, x86)
Has it happened to anyone else here!!?

pls help
i have bought my LG Optimus P700 from Orange Romania and i have ICS 4.0.3 V10C September 03 2012 on it,i tryed to downgrade to V10A AND V10H all flashing firmwares from Romania and Europe and none seem to work my phone opens normaly but the Network keeps crashing and reconecting back,and i just have to update back to V10C,the problem is that i dont realy know where my country gets theyr phones from,so if there is any way that you can help me root it or send me to a V10A firmware that will actualy work and not crash my network i will be forever in your dept :crying::crying:

hohoho... my next project root the LG P705 .... i should try this one , thx guys for the information

Tudy, put the v10i version from România and root it and should be okay with the network. I'm from Romania also and I have v10j Spain version and works fine. You should find the petrescu way to root (helped a bit myself).

I've tried those but... none worked...
Even I have this device and looking forward to rooting it. But unfortunately none of the methods work.
Dudes, I think this guy knows the answer to our problem, check him out in this discussion, he claims that he rooted LG e435
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42593612#post42593612
although there was a bit of problem so... just read it to at least have an idea.
My ROM version isalready v10c which i updated with LG mobile support tool and I tried framaroot apk many times with no success. So I m not sure if installing v10c ROM with KDZ is going to make any difference or not. As someone suggested we need to probably flash a pre-rooted ROM.

A pre rooted Rom is basicly LG stock Rom rooted. I have yet to see anyone saying they have rooted this Rom so my guess is that flashing a pre rooted Rom is basicly not possible. I know it can be rooted wish I knew how.

Even I have this device and my software version is already v10c and framearoot doesn't work for me. So should I flash it with KDZ to make it rootable or the firmware for which the links are given is something special ? I belong to a different country , So should I flash with the firmware meant for my region or the one given in the links in that post ?

What is your firmware version? maybe there is something on the firmware that made it rootable, the version in my phone says that it is "E43510c-CIS-XX" and my stock firmware is "E43510c-SAS-XX" maybe it means that this thing is a different 10c, I also thought that I had the right version and failed with framaroot but with his 10c it became rootable.
Go check if you have the same version as him, if not, flash the firmware using KDZ, don't worry about the region, I guess it won't be a problem.
Can you post links for download of kdz farmaroot and firmware... If you have root I think u can use kdz again to flash stock firmware effectively removing root.

Does flashing with this method erase all the data ? And apart from installing on externel SD , Are other root apps working properly ?

When you flash a different Rom.it should erase all data. If you have root then everything with root should work. Root is like getting administrative power which is similar to ur windows administrator account.....

When I flashed it, no data was erased, but make a backup, just in case.
About the apps, its good, apps that need root works just fine.

Or is there any way update my phone without changing rom..
Download your region rom from sammobile.com. Install "mobile odin pro" in your smartphone. Copy extracted rom tar file to your phone internal storage. Flash it with installed MOD Pro and you will have updated 4.4.2 rom with root privileges.
I had problems with CSC and force closing keyboard after update. But later solved it by flashing again just "cache" with MOD Pro.

I should be save the thread is trusted. Don't forget you can't downgrade so if you're on 4.4.2 you can't go back to 4.3 or lower

i dont have your phone, but it's difficoult to have a rom without an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery:cyclops:
oh is the bootloader locked, what a shame,, hang on i thought u cant root if the bootlaoder is locked,,, my phone is rooted and its fully wokring root
also what happens if i go update recovery in the lg support tool
so trying this will do either nothing or brick my phone[ adb reboot oem-unlock ]
ok so i have used framaroot, SRSRoot, impactor and kingo all of them have failed to root this phone using v10H
exploit has been patched in new firmwares

LG L Bello Lollipop

Hi this is a tutorial to flash Lollipop official firmware to LG L Bello
First you need to download the firmware,
Here is the list of newest firmware to LG L Bello
lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=54
Check most recent firmware
The V10 is the KITKAT version and the V20 is for the Lollipop, then there's a letter, that is little updates, download the one with the "last" letter
The D331, or D335, or D337 is the version of your phone (I own a D331 and right now there isn't a Lollipop firmware for de D331 so I have install one from the D335, and there is no problem, my smartphone works perfectly)
There is no problem installing firmware from other countries, I did it to.
Next download this files:
LG Flash Tool
mega.co.nz/#!CIVgzDKL!WJkGjVpzZQhXb4sd698VXL-DAv6sG0SLAH8QT7H90zQ
Drivers:
mega.co.nz/#!vMlRXJbb!q5DM5rmSxO-oA53yc6B9Vp3CDTZOgLbIAIyjYTTo8zY
1. Install the drivers with your phone connected with your PC, when it finishes disconnect your phone
2. Now turn your phone off, then click continuously on the up volume and connect your phone to your PC, it must be now in download mode
3. Open LG Flash Tool, In Select Type: CDMA ; PhoneMode: CS_Emergency ; Select your download firmware and click in CSE Flash
You can change your language as well
In 10-20 minutes it must be finish and you now have LOLLIPOP

The only difference between D331 to the D335, is that the D335 version is a dual-sim, and the D331 is not, the only thing is that appears that the SIM 2 is not inserted

In my experience I would recommend it, I notice it's a litter faster, the animations run smoothly, the battery before I would get 3hours/3h30 screen on time, now I get 4 hours, and you get the lollipop experience with the LG UI wich I think improve from the KitKat version.
