Root Update to 4.1.2

LG has released a 4.1.2 kernel source code for the venice meaning you all will be getting an OTA update to 4.1.2 very soon. Enjoy:)
 
Updating to 4.1.2 removes root. :( Time to try and root again...

You got the ota update? Go to settings about phone and scroll down and screenshot the 4.1.2 os version and post it. A friend of mine with a site might release the news but needs proof.
 
That looks correct, btw you can capture a screenshot by pressing power button and down volume button at the sane time for about 1 second or by quick memo.
 
And the screen shot...

So if I never turn my phone off will I still get this update? I kinda want to wait to make sure it can be rooted again. Thanks for any info
 
No good. That exploit didn't work. So the non working exploits are as follows:

Spirted_Away
Superoneclick
The exploit from the root page (methods 1 and 3)

Got anything else? I am missing AdFree...

How did manage to you get 4.1.2 on your LG Venice? Was it a regular public OTA that showed up when you went Settings >About Phone > System updates?

Has anyone else gotten an official 4.1.2 JB on their Venice?
 
When i clicked to update my phone went to recovery then was stuck there i had to reset my phone lol but is there a way to get the notification for the update again
 
I have the LG Venice from Boostmobile, still with ICS 4.0.2 firmware, and Ive been System Firmware Upgrade checking for 7 days but keep getting "no Firmware upgrade" message?? WTF Thanks Boost??
Do you know any website I can find JB 4.1.2 so I can manually Upgrade my Venice? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
