The LG Nitro HD is finally out on AT&T in the US and it has already been rooted just days after being released. The LG Nitro HD is a 4G device for AT&T’s LTE network, it comes with pretty good specs: 4.5 inches screen, dual-core processor and Android Gingerbread. With a rooted LG Nitro HD you can now remove the bloatware added by AT&T and get better performance out of it. Let’s find out how after the break.

As I was saying previously users have reported that just by rooting the LG Nitro HD and doing a factory reset the device felt much faster. Quite nice since getting root privileges on this phone is actually quite simple.
Follow these instructions to root / jailbreak your LG Nitro HD:

You need to make sure that USB Debugging is checked otherwise you may have some issues getting root on this device.
It is also worth mentioning that using a USB 2.0 port might give you better results and that you may have to do a force install of the drivers.
