Recently XDA Member @tungkick posted a method to root LG-H960A
However, different variants like H960AY gave error "TOT File is Invalid".
I managed to avoid it with some Hex-editor changes:
Use at your own risk!!
Tested on my H960AY and working
Other variants like H960AR can give it a try, it might work as well - Please - tell us.
Instructions:
1. Download Fixed TOT File for H960AY - Here.
(If you have a different variant like h960AR: open a hex editor like HxD, Locate first line that has "AY" and change the letter to your own model.
This will bypass validation check of LGUP. Theres a reason for these checks, however in our case there shouldn't be changes between H960A, H960AY, H960AR etc...
2. Download LG USB Drivers - Here
3. Download LGUP - Props to @tungkick .
4. Install LGUP_Store_Frame_Ver_1_14_3.msi.
5. Install LGUP_8994_DLL_Ver_0_0_1_18.msi
6. Copy "common" folder to "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model"
7.Boot V10 into Download Mode (turn off -> press volume+ -> connect usb to your PC while volume+ pressed)
8.Run LGUP --> Select your Phone --> Select bin file (The file you downloaded)
--> Choose: Upgrade (so you won't lose data).
9. Enjoy a rooted V10.
