I have followed the directions to the letter. It won't root. Any ideas?
Is your build number 11c? If it is you can LGNPST back to stock 10o and then root. Or if you look around I saw a method that can root 11c.

I had the same prob with a new replacement lgog the other day and used the lgnpst method. All worked fine after that.

Got it rooted. Nocturnal ROM installed, but the AT&T apps are still there. I thought that ROM deleted them. Everything else is right. I used version 1.5.

Hi Torquerules, I'm curious if you actually use lgpnst to downgrade to 10o first or you're using that newer root method that can root straight from 11c ?
I rooted straight from 11c. I will have to search for the root method I used. It was easy.

Actually, I think it was this one. I downloaded and tried so many, I can't remember...

All of the 2.1 releases from HTC - including ALL of the leak versions - are rootable with theone-click apk (app), and this is far, far easier to use than the method that Huntredge links to (above).
Same goes for the Universal Root For Dummies method (Androidforums.com) - it will even work on cupcake releases, too.

Explain the steps you took in detail please.
Remember that after running the one click root, you need to do a full reboot once, then power off and hold send + power buttons till you get to bootloader, then (i believe, haven't had my eris in a while) you press vol down, then vol up to get to the custom recovery. Then flash the rootme.zip ( i think thats what its called) to be rooted. Then do a nand backup and flash away!
I don't remember all the steps but i used the one click on mine but I have the actual 2.1. I just did all the same steps for his. I'm gonna try it again later

Without the unlocked bootloader all you get it temp root. So, unless you want to do an ADB temp root on your device while running pre-release firmware, you're kinda outta luck on that front. Do you have an issue with unlocking the bootloader we should be aware of?
This is a CWM flashable I created to update the radio on the T-Mobile US P769 to L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1232.00 for the new Jellybean update.
I have tested it on three different devices and all showed results.
Edit: It is confirmed that this radio will also function with CM10.1 for the P769BK
This is not needed if you have taken the OTA update and it applied successfully. This is only needed if you used the CWM work around because you were unable to get the OTA update. Find here. When I used the CWM method to update the radio did not take so I created this. Your mileage may very.
It does take awhile to process allow the file to run. Make sure your device has a charge.
Required: Root with CWM recovery find artas182x CWM here. Will function on a locked BL.
Again this is for the T-Mobile US P769. I am not responsible if you brick your phone.

To help the old baseband version was L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1233.00 based on 10g.
I tried OTA 3 times, all failed with android/red triangle, so I use CWM to upgrade v20d.
My Baseband version shows L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1232.00.
Do I have the same version as this one? If so, I do not need to flash this zip file.
Thanks!

The 4 fls came from the OTA.zip.
You might be able to get them by downgrading and waiting for the ota update zip to pop up.

The CurrentRoot method from carrett's guide will root 20j.
That's odd, mine was rooted before the ota so i haven't messed with it on my OG but on the one I'm trying to use it on it only reboots the phone once then goes back to the home screen on the phone. Guess I'll give it a few more tries.

You would still need to unlock with FreeGee to avoid getting security error when removing bloat. There is a rooted zip for 20j that you could flash after teenybin if you wanted to go that route.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this or not but I came across this method through Google. It worked for my Verizon Note 2 with the OTA 4.3 update. I also used Foxfi until the update. With Titanium Backup, I froze the KNOX security and Foxfi works again without asking to contact VZW. Thanks to the Devs who are responsible for this method. I hope it is ok that I shared the link.

I don't think that downgrading is possible without tripping the KNOX security counter. As far as the s4, this root version should root the phone, and I believe that I have read somewhere about a safestrap app thst allows you to flash roms and such.
