Ok guys since I did not see anywhere on the net how to root the device here is a quick guide please move the thread wherever you feel more appropriate:
1) you will need to install the driver for the LG flex on your computer
2) unlock developer mode go to setting - go to about phone - go to software info - tap 7 times on build number this will activate developer mode
3) go to setting you will have a new option called developer options go inside check USB debugging
4) go to lgviet dot com and search for lgl23 I cannot post the link since the site is blocking me click on the first result download the software from android host move the folder in the zip to your desktop
5) connect your phone with the usb with your computer
6) run runroot follow instruction for the rooting
7) if you see that the software is stucked its probably because you have a warning message from google SAY NO and that is it the software will finish instantly and your device is rooted.
I rooted 2 devices both of them were 4.2.2 japanese editions bought on ebay.
Cheers

Moving to Q&A
I rooted my LG-C660 by LG Esteem:
1.- You need to install the phone USB drivers (They are usually in the SD Card when they are new).
2.- If your pc has Windows 7, restart it, press f8 when starting and choose the "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement" option. Your pc will load normally. (If you don't have windows 7 just skip this step).
3.- When the computer is ready, put the phone in USB depuration mode (Settings-> apps -> Development). Connect it to the USB port and be sure your computer recognize it well.
4.- Download LG Esteem. I can't post the URL but go to google and paste this "LG_Esteem_Root.zip mediafire" , you will find it in the first link.
5.- Unzip and run "Run.bat". The program will start. Just follow the on-screen instructions and after seconds it will be rebooted. After this, your phone it's going to be rooted and you will find the Superuser app.
Try it, hope it helps you.

Thanks a lot! :good:
It helped my friend's phone removing some stock apps that he never uses. The next step will be the solution to the lack of ram, but that will be another story. A new custom rom maybe...or a new phone.
I spent days and nights but I got it
1. download rar file from MOD EDIT: Links removed. Please do not use pay per click links, or links that require registration before downloading...also make sure that your files are not full of malware and that your file hosting service is it loading themselves.
2. put your tablet in debug mode (go to setting >about tablet >click on build number 3times till you unlock developer options)
3. in developer options check USB debugging
4. on your pc unpack the rar file
5. double click on run me
6. write ACCEPT
7. choose option 1 to install ADB drivers
8. close all open run me and write ACCEPT this time choose option 2
9. then choose option A1
10. then choose option 1
11. then choose option R2
12. then type ACCEPT
when finish your tablet will reboot and enjoy your tablet is rooted!
Got my kids one each for 80, so I figured I would try to root.....this didn't work with 4.2.2....locks up after ACCEPT restarts No Root Permission, reinstall......thanks though

So this is my second post on XDA.
LG L50 Sporty is also known as LG L50 D213N.
It is not so high level device and so maybe is not of wide interest. But ...
After searching a whole internet I was root it. So other don't have to go through.
Maybe this post will look as long procedure (first view) but actually is not.
There are a couple preliminary steps but just three steps to root.
