Model:vs910

No way to root it yet. You have to root v7 then upgrade using MTs AIO to V8.

are you serious Whats the ETA on finding a root to root V8?

You can flash v7 over v8 (using a. Tot file) , use mtmichaels root maintain script and then Ota update to v8.

thanks i just do not want to loose all of my data.... thats the only thing i was hoping for a one click root on my device with the 2.3.6

Hey everyone, at this time i assume there isn't a patch out yet for rooting the LG Revo 2.3.6?
If not, can someone point me in the direction for instructions on flashing my phone with the VS910ZV7_10.S7_10.P58008.R5.tot?
Thanks!

I belive the next thread has instructions to patch LG Revolution 2.3.6.

I rooted my Revo while on 2.3.6 and installed CWM using the Revo All in one Thing

Tried it. No root yet. Kept denying access, program says i am rooted, but no superuser and no root.

There are multiple aio's in the development section. Mt's works for my wife's revo w/ win 7. Easy v8 works on my revo. If none work then I suggest trying a different pc.

Try the Easy V8 V9 All in One. There has been good feedback with it.

All in one click root did not work

I have an LG revo stock with OTA GB 2.3.4. I tried rooting with mt's all in one click and it never took. mt, do you have another route we could take?
You could actually try the new superoneclick that was just released, it is version 2.2. It uses the same exploit, zergrush, as the all in one. It is the only exploit that will work on the Revo. You will then have to use Revo toolkit to install cwm.

ok, where do I go to download the revo toolkit?
Also I am on a VS910ZV7. Do I have to downgrade?

[Q] No upgrade to Gingerbread

Hello,
I used the upgrade (11.6.11)[TOT]ALL LG Revolution VS910 Firmware V4,V6,V7 *Gingerbread* W/ Instructions to try to upgrade to gingerbread. The whole process went smoothly but after final reboot I am still using Froyo 2.2.2. I used the v4 .tot which was correct. I have since upgraded to need the v6 .tot but have yet to try figuring the same results. Is there any other way to upgrade to GB?
Thanks for any help.
Not sure I'm understanding correctly but v7 is gingerbread

V7 is the Gingerbread .TOT file.

So now will S1C root GB?
follow this thread to root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348557
Thanks Patsoxfan
Man, was it annoying trying to figure out that I had to have the V7 flashed first before I could make GingerVolt work. For the longest time I couldn't get my SIM card to work with GingerVolt and couldn't figure it out.
IOW, couldn't go directly from V4 -> GingerVolt. Had to do V4 -> V7 -> GingerVolt.
I still can't root GB. I am unable to get anything to show up in adb. No devices found. Downloaded and removed and re-downloaded drivers. Phone is reconized by windows, I have debugging on, internet mode. S1C didn't work, Esteem didn't work, I assume because adb can't find my device. I am using windows 7 64 bit. SDK has downloads for 2.3.3 but not 2.3.4 maybe that's the problem idk.

V8 update

Has anyone had trouble using the revo all in one tool to put the stock recovery back on their phone ? I've been trying to update to v8, but can't seem to replace cwm with the stock recovery

I've been having the same issue... i was trying to get the latest OTA but cant seem to get sock recovery back on with the one-click tool.
Im running gingervolt 2 by MT can I run the update. Will it go through n does that mean i will loose root access and start everything over?

I don't think the toolkit works right now, if you look for the original thread for it I think it says something about it ... was supposed to be back in working order last Friday, don't think thecubed has had a chance to fix it yet

[Q] How do i go from V8 to V7 to root Revolution

I'm having trouble finding out how to go back to V7 on my Revolution so i can root it. Been lookin for days, anything i find says to use CWM but you need rot access for that. Any help would be legendary.
No need to downgrade anymore. This thread has a working root method on zv8.

If you're on gingerbread. Search for Megatron root in this forum. Otherwise ICS is out and is easily rooted.

this you will need: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144738 (use this to flash recovery/bootloader)
this is what i used after the completed above step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903752 (this is for root) (worked on my thrill) (it does root but super user doesnt show in menu)
this is how i got mine to root I was first stuck till trying this but sometimes it may take twice for it to work a good way to see if Super user is working is to download something like WiFi tether this is how i knew this method i tried to work I have official ICS on my phone
here you go...
