This is my first post in the LG Revo section. I love my phone, but the OTA was done in the store, therefore I can't root. I've read through all the posts here but I haven't read anything that says someone is actually working on a way to root the V6 firmware. Does anyone know if someone is working on this or if there are any updates? Thanks!

I believe there is a way to downgrade the firmware ad root from there. Check in the dev section or possibly in this general section

I am new to the game but would like to root my LG Revolution! I had it rooted and was working well with decrap rom and other fixes but the ota update screwed me up. I have since downgraded but cannot find a root method I am can do myself since I am slightly inexperienced. I used super one click before when it was working but it seems to be broken now! Please help me root my phone with detailed directions!
What does this have to do with development? I think you posted this in the wrong board.

Moving to General
So i've heard and read that the latest version of KFHD (7.2.3) is completely locked and only a genius can unroot it and stick on a stable ROM.
I did a quick search of the forum and i've seen, yet, anything concrete on 7.2.3... I know it works for 7.2.2 and below but don't know about 7.2.3.
Hope i'm just plain jane wrong.

i'm waiting too
downgrade + OTA survival ?
Did you try to downgrade, root, set OTA survival and reflash .253?
EDIT: Doesn't work.
As eager as you're to root, this is not the forum to post in. This is a development forum so please use the Q & A from next time.
If i update my 350 via ota to 434 and after to 253 i lose the root?

So from your perpsective, rooting methods and tools should be posted in Q&A ? Asking for a rooting tool in Q&A, no devs will ever see it.
You see, there are rules we need to follow. A development forum is where a developer or a contributor posts. Requests are entertained in the Q&A only. Also, if someone does manage to root the new firmware, it'll be up on the development forum. I have nothing against requests, just try to keep the forums organised.

A solution that works
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41517811#post41517811
Maybe OP can change title to SOLVED or better FW.253 ROOTED ?
The solution is not from me, so don't forget to thank the rightful users/devs who did it.
Here are direct links to the "guide" to make it work, until OP is updated:
To install .253 rooted:

To fix reboot issues:

Don't understand the fix reboot part
only create the file with notepad named "install-recovery.sh" and put it into the path in the flashable zip?

i ran it in a terminal once and that was it, not had a reboot since.
Ok I have a rooted verizon DE moto x. It just popped up to update to 4.4.4. I was wondering if anyone has just updated there's while rooted and how it went. I don't won't to let it update and soft brick my phone bc I'm not where I can do anything about it for a few days. I would think it would be ok seeing it's a DE unlocked boot loader. Any help is gr8 thanks

First, questions belong in Q&A - not General - please post to the correct forums.
Additionally, please search. You can find all the information you are requesting in any one of these threads of the same exact topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/4-4-2-4-4-4-vrzn-rooted-t2831132
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/vzw-ota-4-4-4-problem-t2834435
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/getting-error-updating-moto-x-dev-t2835144
Good Luck :good:
If you're on stock recovery, with no stock apps disabled by titanium, and without xposed installed (or at least disabled), it will work. I was stock rooted on my dev edition vzw with stock recovery and the ota installed no problem.
That said... Just wait until you get home. The update is very small stuff and isn't worth being phoneless for days over.
As mentioned above questions should be posted in Q&A not general and there is already threads which this question has been asked and answered. Please use them instead of creating a new thread. Thanks

Now that we have root, hoping putting this download here will lead to some development. All credit to Sunderwear for the original upload.
If anyone needs me to upload other stuff for ROM development, just let me know what to grab.

Please search, Android Development forum isn't for questions like this

Can someone contact Sunderwear and have him grab files for newest release from ATT so that PingPong Root can be built for new rom? I haven't taken ROM yet because of this.

Just saw in another post someone has sent them the kernel and other files. Shouldn't be too long.
I don't think they patched the exploit, so hopefully it'll be up the next couple of days. Would really like some nice upgrade options.
This is a development section not general. Conversations belong elsewhere. Since this serves no other purpose other than provide stock firmware the thread has served its purpose.
