    WOO HOO!

    It did not work the first time. I'm not sure way. Rebooting my computer allowed it to connect in debugging mode and the run.bat worked fine.

    It says "
    Now install LG adb drivers on your PC"
    When I open that zip, all that's in it is a system info, system file and application extension. What do I do with these files?

    when you connect the phone it should install the Verizon LG upgrade utility and drivers.

    when you connect use the internet, ethernet connection.

    I've done everything listed and it just doesn't work for me.

    The run.bat file just gets stuck at "*daemon started successfully*" I have left it at this point for as many as 10 minutes before I simply close the cmd window, disconnect the phone, and reboot both the PC and the phone.

    How do I know if adb is running correctly?

    UPDATE: I ended up uninstalling the USB drivers I found somewhere else, rebooted my PC, installed the USB drivers listed HERE, rebooted the PC again, and tried rooting my LG Spectrum again.

    SUCCESS!

    I will de-bloat tomorrow!

    Yesterday I rooted my one month old LG Spectrum. Today I partially de-bloated it.

    Here's what I have successfully removed so far:
    Bitbop
    Blockbuster
    Finance
    Friends Plus widget
    Hot Pursuit
    Let's Golf 2
    News
    Polaris Office
    Rhapsody
    Richnote + widget
    TuneWiki
    VCast Apps + installer
    VCast Media Manager
    VCast Tones
    Verizon Video
    Video Surf
    VZ Navigator

    There are a few others I'd like to remove, but I'm not sure if I should. They are:
    DummyApp.apk/.odex
    Favorite Contacts widget
    Guided Tours
    In Touch widget
    Interactive Messages
    MLT.apk/.odex
    Quick Reference
    Social Plus
    Today Plus widget
    VZWService.apk
    Weather + widget
    What's New

    Anyone have any concrete advice? I state it that way because I can't find advice anywhere else and I don't want someone to just say "Go for it!"

    Thanks
