How to Root LG Viper 4G LTE LS840

LG Viper 4G LTE LS840 (Sprint) will get used to brand new software. The latter will work as a rooting tool. With its help, the phone’s going to deliver new stuff. And its performance will outshine the one peviously delivered. Stay tuned and find out how to grab this tool!

The name of the software we mentioned before is SRSRoot. As you can see, this is a tool which roots gadgets. And there are many different devices that work with it. Including yours, the LG Viper 4G LS840. This software is a dedicated app which will surprise you even more!

We should now deliver the goodies which are only possible if you root your handset. The new app is the kind of rooting material which brings root-only apps. Released in 2012, your device will sport custom ROMs and battery tweaks; the latter are ready to improve the battery life of your handset.

The advantages of this procedure

The rooting also delivers new features and tweaks to customize the device. As long as you have root access, your smartphone’s going to feature superuser and admin permission. And your phone’s dual-core 1.2 GHz CPU will have improvements, too.

You can always consider the same solution as an unrooting method. The app is powered by an SRS Server. It’s compatible with not only your phone’s OS, Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread, but with many other versions. It’s also compatible with many Build IDs; the one we used for the procedure was ZVD.GWK74.

If your handset gets root access, it will be safe from security problems. It will also not contain bloatware of any kind.

If the smartphone gets anywhere near an update firmware, its system partition will be deleted. Likewise, the root access will not be available anymore. But an upgrade done on a rooted device won’t affect important data; its internal and external SD cards will also not encounter damage. If you root your phone with the SRSRoot dedicated app, its warranty is going to become revoked. You will then have to find a way to get it back. There are many solutions to this problem, so don’t worry.
