Instead Of Having To Go Through Hours And Hours Of Messing With The KDZ Updater Tool, You Can Download Framaroot. It Is The Quickest One Click Root And To Download It, Search For "Framaroot APK" In The Google Search Bar. The First Link Should Be A XDA Link
 
If this is for real, it will help out a lot of people. The step by step root method here works but there is nothing easy about it. A 1 click method would be outstanding.

I can confirm that it works. I have been holding off rooting this phone just cause I'm lazy and it seemed like a lot of effort. But when I saw this method, I decided to give it a try. Worked super easy and super fast. Now I just need to load up CWM and get one (or more) of these ROMs loaded!

Thanks for pointing this out.

I remember that someone on this forum said ROM manager almost bricked their marquee. Did I misread that, or is there a compatibility issue with this phone and that app?

I'm a little skittish about installing that unless I get confirmation that it's safe.
 
ROM Manager Worked Perfectly For Me. I Picked CWM Recovery, My Phone Name (LG Marquee) Showed, And It Flashed Flawlessly With No Cache Errors Or Anything. It Works.
 
tsk tsk, 99% of the issues ppl have with ROM Manager are user error. I have never had a issues with RM. ;)

And I would grab that framaroot while its on the Play Store as it wont be for long. ;)
 
old marqUee broke, boUght a new one was getting mad that i coUldent get the kdz Updater to work i prob jUst had bad timing becaUse i did it before, searched google for frama downloaded the app rooted in Under 1 min .. da f is that.

What's up Playful?

Myself and another Marquee owner both were running ROM Manager and both of us formated our sd with the phone and ended up with a fried MB. Coincidence maybe, but not worth taking the risk of it happening again. I lucked up and got LG to fix it since the phone was under warranty. My warranty has since expired.

ROM manager is a very useful tool and i wish I knew It could be used with absolute confidence on the Marquee. Unfortunately I cannot. Thankfully most everything it can do for the Marquee can be achieved through other methods.

Also, I just checked Play from my Marquee and Framaroot didn't show up. Maybe it will show when I check from my Transformer.
It looks like it's still available on XDA too.

If you're gonna use it, use it to install CWM and then get rid of it.

That's what I was looking for.

Thank you. I'll go ahead and do it. I simply wanted confirmation that it would be OK to install CWM using ROM Manager. And since you're the one who said it caused issues, I trust you that it wasn't the process of installing CWM that caused those issues.

I'm one step closer to installing one of these awesome sounding ROMs I've been reading about the last couple months. :)
 
OK. Thanks for the confirmation WetBiker. I just wanted to make sure CWM wasn't the problem people had with ROM Manager.

Nice that I didn't have to use the 23 step process outlined on the Root Guide! :) I downloaded 2 programs and with a total of somewhere around 8 or 9 taps, now have a rooted Marquee with CWM installed. And never once had to connect the phone to the computer. Or count to 10 before hitting a button. :)

I booted into recovery, created a backup, came back into stock ROM and texted my friend, just to confirm that my phone wasn't bricked. He was impressed, as he's been scared to root his phone (not a Marquee, BTW), so hopefully when he gets back from his vacation next week, he'll have his phone rooted too, and we can compare ROMs.

Anyway, Just a success story accomplished by using the framaroot and ROM Manager apps, rather than the 23 step process that seemed so painful to so many.
