How to Root LG Optimus L9 II D605
Once your hands get a hold on a rooted LG Optimus L9 II D605 , you’ll never want to put it down. To get root access on this model, use SRSRoot. If this is your first time performing this useful procedure, you’ll get help from us. So grab your phone and follow us!
First of all, this tool is a dedicated app. You can download it for free and use it with many gadgets from various manufacturers. Including your LG Optimus L9 II D605. This smartphone was unveiled last year. The Build ID we used with your model was KOT49I.D60520a. One of the pros of using the SRSRoot is that it works with many other Build IDs. So you won’t have to use the one we chose for your phone if you have another ID on your mind.
The processor inside your handset is of the dual-core 1.4 GHz Krait variety. Its speed will increase significantly after the rooting. Which means that the smartphone will deliver a better performance.
The benefits of this procedure
Equipped with Android 4.4.2 KitKat as an OS, your phone won’t end up with this version deleted from it. This dedicated app won’t allow that to happen; the app functions with every single one of the Android versions out there.
You can, if you want to, revoke root access with the SRSRoot dedicated app. This tool has numerous goodies to offer. But before we mention them, you should know that it is powered by an SRS Server. If you use it to root your handset, the latter will be spared the following: serious security issues. You will also not experience bloatware.
Now let’s see what this aplication is able to deliver. It will all start with these: root-only apps and a series of fresh new features. You also get superuse and admin permission. More to come are the following: custom ROMs. Battery tweaks and customization methods are on the menu, too.
Unfortunately, a rooting also means disadvantages. Especially when perfoming an upgrade. Should the latter be on your mind, the phone will have its root access and system partition no more. But the internal / external SD cards and important data will be safe from such problems. If you don’t consider an update, though, the rooting will still deliver something negative: the loss of the warranty.
