I've followed the one step click tutorial that Dan Rosenberg created

I open up the run.sh file in terminal and get this message

LG Spectrum Root Exploit (OS X version)
[*] by Dan Rosenberg (@djrbliss)
[*]
[*] Before continuing, ensure USB debugging is enabled and that your phone
[*] is connected via USB.
[*]
[*] Press enter to root your phone...


I go ahead and press enter

and get a bunch of these messages and nothing happens to my phone... line

55: ./adb.osx: No such file or directory

Can anyone help
 
You have to pull the folder outta the zip file place it on your desktop then run it. Also make sure when you plug your phone into the PC on your phone select "internet connect".

*Also make sure after you select 'Internet Connection' you UNCHECK the box that says "Always Ask". I had this same problem the last time I recovered/rooted my Connect. The exploit refreshes your phone, and then loses connectivity because after power cycle it goes back to Mass Storage!

I had to use Dan Rosenberg's Spectrum root exploit kit, since mtmichaelson's Connect exploit wasn't working like it did when I rooted before.
