Using Windows 8 :silly:

Go into the o4xr folder and there should be another o4xr folder inside that, and open a command prompt holding shift and right click with the mouse (might work with windows 8) If not the terminal path will have to go through both folders. That happened to me because I had the o4xr folder within another o4xr folder if that makes sense ( if that makes sense) hope that helps

About windows 8 I don't know a thing but, on seven I just double-click on the "root" batch file and the process starts right away...

Win 8 the enemy of developers it seems.

Well, for me Windows8 will end like Vista, while Windows7 like XP.
Windows 8 for tactil devices have a nice interface but in a normal computer... sh*tty.
I have a Toshiba Qosmio, 18,4", with 8GB of RAM, I7 Intel processor, I can say that is a fast laptop... even like that I un-install all unnecessary programs and functions (except AERO), shortcuts I don´t have, I use two DOCKs for that, soo... have a OS that looks like a windows mobile, is not for me!
Sorry for the Off-topic

can someone actually show me a video of how to root ? maybe i forgot
i only need it for Beats audio

I don't believe it... you forgot something like that???
OK...
1st - Install the "IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.apk"
2nd - open the app, while the screen shows "Hello World" press power button and click on "reboot"
3rd - after rebooted and with the phone connected, run the batch file "root" from the folder "onxr".
Wait for the reboots and voila
Don't forget again that the phone must be setted to "charge only" and "debbug" ticked...

Wait... you're with Windows 8?
Cause if you are maybe is not that simple but, first try this:
Copy the 11 files inside the "onxr" directly to disk "C:", open the cmd select C: and type "root", if it doesn't work tomorrow I'll try something else.
Now is time to go to bed :angel:

great solution, or (like me ) you download an windows XP iso , and download VMWare, install windows xp on that , and there you are, you can now do anything windows 8 cant
used this to root
and bootloader unlock my parents wildfire s, and also to update my brothers xperia p to ics

I just downloaded an app that could possibly substitute beats (dsp manager) buts its not as good as beats.
And could I give the phone to someone that could root it for me? That would be nice lol

Run as sudo
If it still doesn't work,then
Menu>Users and Groups>assign your account administrator and root permissions.
Might not be completely accurate as I am not using Ubuntu right now

The easy way maybe formatting the C drive and fresh installing windows. And i guess its affected with virus, which probably maybe the reason for slow bootup.

Not normally.
On some computers it's F11 just after the bios screen, but it will depend on your computer.

If you cant see it, try to open your eyes ok, now seriously, what ROM are you using? Try a different usb mode (settings -> storage -> menu button) and it should work just fine.

Did you maybe update to a higher version? Install any app, that could cause it? Like I said, simply try to go to settings and then use different usb modes. Maybe it will work again. If not, I d see, if you can connect it to download mode. Turn it off, hold VolUP and plug in a usb cable. If it turns off, your USB port should be fine and working and it seems to be a software issue.

I found a line of code that installs an app to transfer files from ubuntu to android, if anyone else needs to make that transfer here is the line
sudo apt-get -y install mtp-tools mtpfs gmtp
This will install a ubuntu app named gMTP and when you open that, you just attatch your usb with your phone, and click connect
Edit: after looking properly rather than posting to xda like a plank, I also found this lovely app incase anyone needs it

GMTP? Yes it works fine but its not like using wmp to transfer music or anything, you have to completely order your folders from scratch and if you have ocd Like Me that can take a while... It works brilliantly for file transfers but you can only Mount internal or SD one at a time which may be a little annoying otherwise its the best thing for Linux
