If youre looking to banish Bing from your LG Revolution, then roll up those sleeves because root access is now possible on Verizons latest LTE-equipped wunderphone.
The process is relatively straightforward (provided you know what youre doing), and uses the rageagainstthecage method to unlock your handsets full potential. This crack comes one day following the phones release, which suggests LG didnt expend much effort locking this one down.
Theres just two caveats here. First, you must install and configure the Android Debug Bridge (ADB), which puts the rage into your Revolution.
Second, theres currently no option for recovery images -- which must be addressed for custom ROMs to be of any value. Still, if youre undeterred (or really want to eliminate bloatware), just follow the source for this superuser solution.
