Root Anybody rooted yet?

[woody1]

So, has anybody rooted their G Pad yet? If so, what did you use to do it?

I'm also interested to find out if it's possible to root these devices without voiding the warranty. Does anybody know how that works?

I rooted mine this evening using the instructions here....

[ROOT] For stock LG G Pad 8.3 - xda-developers

Very easy to do and seems not to have the doubt cast over it that the Kingo method has.

There is a very useful reference resource being maintained here....

I suggest when rooting your LG pad to remove sensitive data from it first because when you're rooting it, some of your data and IMEI numbers may be sent to a Chinese IP address.

You're referring to the Kingo method. I used an alternative method, as mentioned above.
