root is possible, just need to get SU working so that its a proper root that asks you permission instead of just granting all apps root access.
 
How long is the root process? Is it a one click or is it a long process like when the optimus m 2.2.1 was first rooted and we had to root using LGQRST?
 
succes for us all!...looks like im going to switch back soon..anyway to donate to mike?

Check here for a donate link. I saw it on the right side column.

He says that once he gets su and everything working he will release a one-click. Check the link above.
 
Wait so could i root my phone now???


Nope... superuser isnt working properly which means any app can gain access to your root without asking for permission which I'm sure you know how bad that could be.

Once mike fixes it he will release the root
 
Why would he get banned? Iffy stuff..keep us updated..

Yeah, a while back he got banned from here. He wouldn't listen to the mods -- something about posting the paypal link in a wrong place or having to have a paid account to have a paypal link or something like that. Anyway, he was warned repeatedly, suspended and he told them just to remove his account and he never came back.

He posted this:

Android Forums ban | Diigo

So, while he was not banned "permanently", he's not here anymore.

But he's been very helpful in rooting phones -- Optimus, Indulge and now the Esteem.
