Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that I've found a way to permanently root the latest stock KitKat ROM for our LG L9 II (D605) phone.
Here's what I did:
Starting with fresh KDZ install of v20h (no cwm or other things necessary), you need to be on Dalvik (default).
1) Download and install KingRoot, use it to root the phone (might restart, after it boots, just start the app again).
2) Download and install SuperSU Me Free app, use it to delete KingUser and switch to SuperSu. Make sure to give the app root permissions. To install, enable 'install app from other sources' or something like that to be able to install the apk.
At this point you're fully rooted with working SuperSU, although you will lose it at restart. If you just need 'temproot' to delete some stuff, go ahead, you're done.
To finalize root:
3) Put this file to the '/cache' folder. Will require root to do this step.
4) Download and install Reini Reboot from Play Store.
Start the app, give it root permissions.
Click 'Restart to Recovery'. Phone restarts.
You're in you stock system recovery. (Go up or down with volume keys and select with power key.) Navigate to 'Apply update from cache', where you will find the root_v2b.zip file you put there. Click on it, it installs, reboot.
You are now fully rooted, that's permanent. :)
(Might have to update the SU binary after and another time after you update SuperSU in Play Store.)
