LG G2
Rooting Instructions

  • Modifying / replacing your phone's software may void the phone's warranty and may render phone to 'brick' status - meaning your phone will not be worth much more than a brick. 
  • Rooting a phone is entirely at your own risk. No one affiliated with ROMWarez is responsible for your decision to root your phone.
  • Unlocking the bootloader on most phones will automatically wipe all data.
  • Always backup your current Apps/Data/SMS Messages before performing any type of rooting procedure. Find these backup apps on Google Play. If you have a Google account, then backing up your contacts is unnecessary as these are on Google servers.

Rooting Phone
  • Download and install the phone's USB drivers for computer.
  • Download and extract IORoot zip file to desktop.
  • Install RootChecker from Google Play.
  • Download 'Open-Command-Prompt.cmd' file and place in IORoot folder.   
  • Enable USB debugging: Menu --> Settings --> Developer Options
  • Enable Unknown sources: Settings --> Security
  • Ensure phone is in 'Charge Only' mode.
  • Connect the phone to the computer through USB.
  • Open the IORoot folder/directory created earlier on computer desktop, double click on the 'Open-Command-Prompt.cmd' file and type adb devices to ensure phone and computer drivers are installed correctly.
  • Note: Verizon users need to set USB connection to 'Ethernet Mode'.
  • With the IORoot folder open (downloaded in earlier step), double click on the IORoot.bat file to start rooting process. Follow on-screen instructions.
  • If script does not proceed from the 'waiting for device...' turn phone screen on and unlock. Ensure ADB has the proper permission and that the ADB RSA prompt isn't displaying 'YES/NO' screen. Check the 'always remember' box before accepting action. 
  • Once phone is rebooted and home screen displayed, type at command prompt, adb install rootcheck.apk and press Enter.
  • Launch RootCheck and press the button to check for Root.
  • If text displayed is 'Congratulations . . . ', you are rooted.
