However, you should know that this operation is not official, that is, this has nothing to do with LG or with Google. What is it for you? Well, this only means your device warranty will get void. If this is the case, you must take into consideration the things that you put in your device, specifically when you decide on rooting your device otherwise you will meet shortcomings while you’re in the middle of the process. So before starting, you should first try to fix or unbrick your handset through manual troubleshoot solutions to avoid soft brick of your device.

On the bright side, this procedure is guaranteed 100% safe and compatible with any LG Android based device. The tool is named Stump Root. This tool is responsible for automatic root access, so it spares you from rooting the longer way. Thus, this is considered one of the easiest unlock solutions available for the Android OS.

To avoid corruption of your files, even it is unlikely to happen, you must ensure an appropriate backup to save up your important documents including your personal info, contacts, messages and so on. And you are also encouraged to use a custom recovery image to save your present ROM made possible by Nandroid backup.

Furthermore, you will need a computer to download the root tool. It is advisable that your computer must be free of any security protection since it may interrupt the download process. On the other hand, you should enable the Unknown sources option on your phone (Menu>Settings>Security) and you must put a check mark on USB Debugging on the same. Just go through Menu>Settings>Developer Options. Finally, you should see to it that your device has at least 60% battery power otherwise it will get bricked in case it turns off in the middle of the process.

Again, this is a universal root procedure that is only exclusive for LG branded devices. So, if you try to root it to other brands such as Samsung, HTC, Motorola, or other devices, expect that your Android device will get soft bricked. I encourage you to not proceed to the guidelines below.


Now you are more or less ready, just carefully go over the process so that you don't get yourself having problems in the end. Good luck!

Paint On Galaxy Z Fold7 Phones Is Already Peeling Off, According To Consumers

The paint chipping issue reported by some Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 users appears to be a recurring problem that was also seen with the Z Fold 6. Despite users claiming they have not dropped their devices, paint delamination is occurring on the anodized aluminum body. Samsung’s support page for the Z Fold 6 suggests that poorly grounded third-party chargers can cause leakage currents, damaging the anodized finish and leading to paint chipping. This is why Samsung advises using only official chargers. However, since at least one affected user on Reddit reported using an official 25W Samsung charger, it raises concerns that the problem might not be solely due to third-party chargers. It could indicate potential issues with Samsung’s paint application process or possibly that their chargers might not fully prevent this damage under certain conditions. Received the phone and been using for almost a week. Treated the phone like a baby but the paint seems to start peeling off (sort of) day by ...
