I'm new to the rooting thing, but i recently rooted my phone with ROOT L7. Then I tried getting cwm to work on it so flashed a custom firmware using KDZ updater. That screwed up my things. So I needed to reset my phone but that did not help. So I got a different stock firmware and flashed that on my phone. but now when I tried to root it it would not work. My L7 is the P705g model running p705 firmware. (Android 4.1.2).
I tried using various root programs like root l7, bin4ry root, and more.
how can I root my phone?
#########EDIT##########
Well,,, that was easy..
I fixed the problem.
I used this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486512
follow exactly what they tell you to do. I used the CYDIAIMPACTOR one. Option 3 on rooting.
you use the cydia impactor to root, reboot, install SUPERSU from play store then you have root access!!!
HI! I flashed Slimbean rom on my lg l7 p705. It was a success, then i installed apps for rooted phone but when i try to open them it says that application needs root acces. I also downloaded root checker to check if my phone was unroot, and yes it was unroot, it doesn't have root access. I tried to root it again using framaroot and vroot but no luck. HOW CAN I REROOT MY PHONE?

Sorry I cant give you a link,because I'm on my phone..
Go to google and search SuperSU. Go to his official thread on xda, download flashable zip for the latest version, reboot in recovery and flash
Now you have root access
Hello all,
I have an LG G2 D80220c-222-88, with stock rom KitKat 4.4.2. Few months ago I rooted the device using towelroot, just to be able to install the xdabbeb's 3.1 camera. I did not installed any recovery.
I would like to know if there is a way to unroot my device, for warranty issue, and to be able to install further stock update. I already try to uninstall the towelroot apk but Root checker still find the device as rooted...
Thanks for any suggestion,
kindly,
Cisky
Does anybody know if 'Unrooter' tool, by bender_007, may works for my request? At least to upgrade to a new stock OTA release?
Search the threat return to stock for full unroot!

If you didnt installed Supersu after rooting with towelroot your phone is vulnerable..it grands root access to ANY app
Try installing Supersu(from Google Play), and then from SuperSU theres an option "full unroot"..and after full unroot use root checker to see if its still rooted
OR you can flash a stock firmware with lg flash tool, you will loose root and all things from your phone... You phone will be like new ( not sure if it will be like new new xD, i mean maybe in download mode it will still say"rooted" because it was rooted before...but even this thing can be faked if you need to return your phone for waranty...but how i said, im not sure that in download mode will say "rooted" after flashing the oficial firmware)

Thanks a lot for your answer, I unrooted the device using SuperSU (root checker confirm that i'm unroot), but still, i'm root on download mode, it means that I cannot update to any OTA stock update

Did you flash the firmware? You can flash the latest firmware instead of taking OTA
Or if you didnt flash the firmware, you are safe to update JUST if your ROM is clean...with clean i mean no mods installed like the camera mod that you installed...so its recommended to flash the firmware instead of taking ota
The latest firmware for d802 is v20h you can follow the instructions from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

Install root, custom recovery, etc causes small modifications on system, partitions, etc, so LG software detect that and triggers the root flag.
Flash a jb kdz for your phone model, reboot, factory reset, update by ota to kk.
Pure untouched stock phone again!

I recently got a new phone - LG L Fino (D290) - after some time I googled how to root it and found the PurpleDrake method. People said that it works and it saved their lives.
I tried it - PD said that everything was successful.. so I installed SuperSU and can't get it to update binaries, all I get is an alert that says "Installation failed"
There is no CWM nor TWRP recovery compatible with my phone.
Even after hard-resetting the phone I have the same trouble
Can anyone help?
I changed SuperSU to Superuser. When I try to update binaries on this one, it fails on downloading the manifest file.
Seriously, I need help...
Well firts of all sorry if my english is bad. I root the phone with purpledrake method and it was completely succesful. Then i went to Google Play and i downloaded this apphttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu Open it, click in update, normal and thats all. You will have supersu and your phone rooted. (If you have reset the phone try to do the purpledrake method again and then download the app)
Im guessing this is a unique problem with your device. Try reflashing a stock KDZ and trying again.
Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. I found a really nice way to root the L FINO with no issues.
Get Kingo root app, It's an installer. It will install root and a SuperUser which is Kingo SuperUser or Something like that.
If you need screenshots, I'm here !
So i finally got the OTA update for lollipop and updated while rooted? I tried stump root because some said it work. Stump root says device is rooted already but its not. Can i just re root with the one click method, or do i need to do something special?
