Rooting my LG Optimus L7

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!

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).

Try to search the FW on samsung-updates.com. You will find it there for sure.

you can also flash back to stock with kies

Try this site: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N5110

Thanks guys, unfortunaltey those sites also seem to have thier mirrors down. ill try kies

samsung-updates.com had they're files hosted hotfile.com. And I guess they were forced to shutdown the hotfile site due to MPAA lawsuit.

Hello,
xda, doesn't allow me to post direct links till I reach 10 posts, to download, please copy the link in code and open it in another window, its a google drive link, you can just download the file from there by just clicking on the file name.

Dear OP
Hi
1. The link you've provided does not work... it just shows 2 files on Google drive but by clicking on it nothing happens... is there any other way you can suggest or any other link you can provide?
2. Also can you tell me that if I install this update somehow .. will all my data and root permission get erased??
3. I rooted my Xperia Z just recently with 10.4.B.0.569 firmware.. if the phone is unrooted by applying this update... then how to reroot it?
sorry for asking so many questions...
Thanks n Regards

Hi,
1. when I open the drive link I shared(Without logging in to any Google service in incognito mode) I see the two file, and when I click on one of them I get an error saying "sorry an error has occurred retrying". just click on the download button in the right down corner to download the file. attaching a screenshot for your reference.
Code:
http://i60.tinypic.com/112ebt5.png
2. This is a generic unrooted firmware, if you flash it on your phone using flashtool, it will rewrite everything on your phone, you can find the flashtool from the below thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335555
secondly, flashtool does provide you option to not wipe your data partition and also provide options to exclude parts of firmware, screenshot attached for your reference. though, I generally wipe everything while flashing the FTF, and do not exclude any part of the firmware. you may wish to research more about flashtool before performing any changes to default options and advance tasks.
Code:
http://i61.tinypic.com/o0uh4h.png
3. And as for rooting I dont know if there is any direct method of rooting this firmware, as I havent tried it yet, you can research on xda forum for indirect root methods.
Thank You.

Can some post a link for

Stock rom
please not chineese links i have troubles with pan.baidu thanks.

Sammobile. With basic account almost impossible to download as very slow. There is an app created for windows os. It enables you to download very fast but can't remember the app name at the moment.
Maybe it's only downloading the latest firmware so not sure if you can choose to download 4.4.2.
