In this tutorial we will show you how to root your LG Optimus L5 E610/612/615 with the help of the Frameroot App. Frameroot uses a well known exploit which enables it to root your device quick and easy. Several Companys like Asus, Huawei or LG have already fixed this exploit in newer software updates. There is a possibility that this exploit won’t work with your LG Optimus L5 E610/612/615, but we recommend you to first try it out because there is little to no chance in bricking your LG Optimus L5 E610/612/615 with Frameroot.
