How you do it?

Guess he checked the The Optimus 4X/P880 Index here and found an answer in the "Guides/HowTo" section. That's what I did back then

Maybe a stupid question, but if I am running Gingervolt 1.3, can I just flash this directly over it? Don't really mind if I lose root.

Yes you can flash right over. You have to re root I believe

Thanks. Am I right in assuming I will lose all of my apps? If so I can just back then up I guess.

Thank you very much for that. The step by step guide there will help a lot! But I do have 1 small issue, the files you linked in your tutorial dont seem to work as i am using a mac. Is there any way to get these for a mac?

POINTLESS
So, Do I understand correctly? That thread is now titled "pointless" and after reading the posts there it would seem that there is now a root for zv8, is that correct? If I am correct can you please direct me to how and where to get it? I would really appreciate it, thank you very much in advance.

The UNROOT
If you wanna unroot your device, why so ever, the easiest way is to use Unlock Root (Link above) open it, connect your phone via USB, enable Debugging Mode and click unroot. If you wanna unroot it, e.g. to be able to send it back to LG on warranty, better use the method below, to unbrick your device with R&D tool.
Because like this, you will get back an unrooted device, which has also been hardresetted. So LG will hardly/never get a clue, that it has ever been rooted.
Dont forget to format your SD card as well

That's from my how to, but I think I should correct this. Use Smartflashtool and flash the latest version available for you. Do a factory reset from within settings menu and everything should be fine

You should have done a quick search first, or looked at the home page...
This is the link to the Jelly Bean (4.1.1/4.1.2) Root Method
Althought djrbliss never mentioned it was for AT&T's 4.1.1, it was assumed as it was Jelly Bean.
Just use an Ubuntu Live CD/USB, Boot/Virtual Box into it, and get the android-tools, and any other required packages...
So you obviously look that hard man.

Some people are unconsiously oblivious...
Others just have a harder time comprehending the descriptions for the Guides here...
Then again, there are those who just skip that part anyways...

If you have any spare USB Drives, there are easy windows programs to easily make a bootable USB... If needed, I could put up screenshots showing (visually) what to do to make the bootable drive and how to root.

First, make sure USB debugging in enabled, if it's not, go to options - pc connection and enable it.
1_)Enter stock recovery by holding power button + volume rocker down while your phone is booting until a screen with small texts appear.
2_)Select the option that contains word "ADB" (I don't remember it)
3_)Run the root tool.
That tool is pretty easy to use, you just need to google anything you don't know, I learned it that way and so should you in the future
