Root easy way to root froyo that wroked for me

[cb3p0]

sorry for posting a method that could set us back overall

 

[jrock204657]

The main reason for going through Trident's guide is to get fastboot. I guess that way will work but if you ever run into trouble and can't get into recovery, you will be shit outta luck.

thank you good to know, probably gunna keep it the half ass way anymore

if someone wants to try or has already tried let me know your findings

I did the same thing and posted about it, and my thread got deleted. I think this is one of the things that getitnowmarketing, death2all and Trident were talking about mentioning any kind of exploits, so I would ask you to remove the info you provided. You don't have to, but I would just in case

No, the method you spoke of has been asked not to be talked about by the community developers. I also have had posts deleted on the topic.

Please, I am a developer for Punisher ROM, and a dev for many others, as one of the guys who supply you with ROMS, and on behalf of Getitnowmarketing, Death2all110, and Trident, I ask you remove the content of the first post before LG find out they messed up and fix the problem. Thanks alot!

I'm not trying to be rude, but who cares If there is a root exploit for 2.2.1 when using the lgmu?

Even if LG did find out about it, and closed the exploit we would still be able to use Tridents guide to get root on 2.2.1...

Maybe i'm confused as to the reasoning, but in my opinion theres no harm done by people posting this exploit since we can already achieve root with the 2.2.1 ota by using Tridents guide. If i am wrong feel free to correct me, and again i'm sorry if i came off as rude.

Dude, I dont think you sound rude but reread the post above yours. He is asking you very nicly to remove the posts. This is one of the few rom dev's out there for the Ally. Maybe just maybe he is on to something and knows a bit more than you or I. Give him the benifit of the doubt and remove said posts, not argue your point.

No offense to anyone but I bet they already know. I am not advocating either side "take it down, or not take it down" Most likely there is a mole on our site seeing everything.
Personally I have seen this same info posted in about 4 different places at different times. Most likely so have they.

Im just sayin.

i updated via lg mobile updater when i was rooted and on velocity .4 and had amonra 1.2.4 as my recovery... when i was done updating to froyo i had obviously lost the root, but not my custom recovery. so i tried loading bare bones rom and savoxis and both restored the root and work flawlessly... if someone wants to try or has already tried let me know your findings

Here's the deal - Unless your phone came from the factory with V6, you will not have the fastboot-bootloader when you update this way. What this means is that you will not be able to flash any new ROM that includes a radio update. IF the ROM does not incude the radio update or you just don't care about ROMs then you are good to go. Otherwise you are limiting your future options by updating this way.

If this method did everything properly, dont you think that the root guide would have been posted sooner and be way easier? Please dont be lazy, get to know adb and fastboot.

I rooted this way and here is my logic. If I am wrong in my thinking Please let me know. I do not claim to be nearly as knowledgeable as the gurus here. I am not interested in different ROMs. I like the way my phone looks and handles with my wallpaper and Launcher Pro. What I want is the ability to use more apps. So I loaded 2.2.1, did a factory reset (which gained me 22MB of memory) and rooted using this method. I can now run Move to SD Enabler and Titanium Backup. I can move all my downloaded apps to SD, backup everything on my phone and remove apps I don't want freeing up more memory. If my logic is wrong, please let me know. In the meantime I am happy and wish to say thanks to all the devs and others who have helped me to understand my Ally.

Actually I PM'd the author of the above linked thread and he said SuperOneClick has nothing to do with the exploit he was talking about.
