If you have custom recovery and root the ota update obviously wont work. I had asked the developer of root for our devices for the otas and this is what he had said:
dalingrin said:
My suggestion, if you want to keep root don't take an OTA.
If you really want to stay with stock LG then you'll want to flash updates via custom recovery. The community will take the updates from LG and make them flashable with TWRP or CWM.

so you ll have to wait for someone to make this update a flashable zip.

Yeah there is a script that runs when you do a OTA. My buddy had to completely restore to stock using download mode to fix his. You may get lucky with doing a factory wipe but sounds like flashing a new rom didn't even help... Look through the forums and find the thread that guides you through doing a regular restore (this will restore you to the original software. You will be unrooted and your recovery will go back to stock. This means you can do the OTA if you so desire. Just keep in mind it may block Loki and root)

Thanks for the reply mate,
Yeah i will do like that , but surely there is a way somewhere to remove the boot loop , from TWRP you can remove edit files.
So if someone with more knowledge tell us where the OTA files give the command to boot to recovery we can remove it.
Cheers

Post your problem in twrp's thread. Drgravy replies often and he knows more than anyone what to do in a situation like yours.

Thanks all for your help ....
I unbricked the device with FlashTool.1.0.54 , i flashed the original firmware , the strange thing this did not wipe my data, only removed Custom recovery and root.
Cheers

the software version is v50010b from v50010a

Perhaps the update is by region. I cannot seem to initiate update via OTA or LG PC Suite.

To be honest I didn't mention any chances , sure they (lg) updated their apps but I haven't notice any system chances , but then again I can't take it from my kids and wife hands!!!!

Just tried the update to a stock (but rooted) Gpad
At 3% installing, error 0x13E
After booting, a samsung-like:laugh: message:
"This device is suspected in rooting. Software update is not available for rooted device"
Fortunately this tablet is not mine... This tablet needs a "google edition" update ASAP

Maybe somebody could cook this update into a package that can be flashed by people who are on stock, but rooted?

I am on stock, rooted, but the update went fine.

Hmm? I am stock rooted 4.4.2 and my phone updated fine. Is your phone still working fine?

Well I unrooted using SuperSU and took the update...boot into recovery only. Had to flash stock and then take the update. Will use the towelroot mentioned and go from there. Hope it is worth it.

T-Mobile OTA System Update v5.0.1 - 4/14/2015

I Just received the ota system update for my T-Mobile LG G3, but I am worried about what will happen if I update. Last time I updated my phone with a system update, it bricked my phone completely. Let me know if there's anything that can go wrong. Thanks!
I am running "SR REMiX G3 4.4.2" which is stock based 10r ROM. With the "Furnance Kernel".

I'm not completely sure but I'm pretty sure updating will brick your phone. Just wait until someone here puts out something to flash

As long as you do not have a custom bootloader installed you can update then re-root with http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951 It works fine. I used it without any problems.

How do i go back to original stock? Can i restore with the backup i did of the original stock thru TWRP and then update?
Sent from my LG-D851 using XDA Free mobile app

I forgot I had TWRP and got stuck in a bootloop of TWRP. I flashed the stock recovery and it booted normally again. Still on 4.4.2 now I no longer see the Lollipop update again. Probably going to have to wait until I get the push from T-Mo again?
I went to check for updates and nothing came through there.

Which stock recovery did you use? And did you only revert to stock recovery ? or did you also revert to stock ROM?

You cannot take OTAs with a custom recovery. Can you use the menu and do you have a backup? You will have to somehow revert to stock or try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/general/t-mobile-usa-lp-ota-t3020967/page83. (mjfrank posted "This has been floating around
(@inshadesofgrey gets the credit,") I always recommend downloading and keeping the stock rom on your sd and a clean backup-- after rooting and installing a custom bootloader for the first time-- and saving to pc. Keep us updated

Did you use lollipop auto-rec to install TWRP. Which will put the proper boot loader, and download with kernel. Then you go to TWRP and install radio and ROM after a wipe.
I believe someone said it came back with a firmware issue. But I will have to tot, back and verify.

Cm12 is based on jellybean boot loader.
Lollipop boot loader is on stock.
KitKat is for those on custom stock based pure lollipop code.
I'm hoping I can verify something as to if only lollipop Roms can use the new auto-rec due to something in coding or something else.

i jave ls980 with twrp recovery installed....and i m ron rooted stock zvc...
also help in this scnerio can i install zvg through terp recovery

Since I already have to be on ZVG and rooted in order to install this... what is the purpose of installing the Full version of this? wouldn't it just get me what I already have?

Good question, I believe it was in the thought that we could jump from zvc,zvd, or zve into it. But firmware, seems to be an issue. Upgraded firmware breaks coming from a different version.

i can't root my stock zvg
i installed stock zvg with adb sideload. but i can't root it! this root method is stucking at %90. is there any root method except this?

Mine would stick at 90%, I waited quite a while and figured it for stuck. So I rebooted and checked, i was rooted.

Have you tried the non graphic version 1.2.

Stuck at initial boot
For some reason I can't seem to boot for the first time after flashing. I am stuck on the LG logo waited around half a hour and got nothing.
Tried Re-Flashing it from recovery, doesn't seem to work.
Before flashing this, I TOT'ed back to ZVE, took OTA, Rooted with LG One Click Root, got TWRP installed with AutoRec (the Lollipop one) and sim unlocked with http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...click-tool-sim-unlock-network-manual-t3114446
Luckily I backed up my stock ZVG ROM. Any clues on what to do?

Hi, guys can you tell'me if i can flash this rom over my custom rom lollipop actually a have VK 5.0.2 but i want flash this rom, can do that?

E98020H issues.

I just got this phone today and it came pre installed with 4.4.2 firmware. Now I can root it which is not the issue. the issue is no matter what I use, I cannot install custom roms. freegee does not work, I can use CWM via g pro kitkat but installing anything always results in an error 7.
what are my options considering this?

Which method did you use to root the phone? It's said that stock 4.4.2 can't be rooted correctly. The best thing to do, if you want to go through the trouble, is to flash back to the stock JB, which is v10g if you're using e980. Follow the guide line giving in the posting below, and you will get the best result.

That's why because towel root and freegee doesn't work on stock 4.4.2. I think you have to use universal root and then flash cwm6.0.47 to give you both recovery and unlock the bootloader. Flash back to JB is much better approach .

I did. I am on 4.1.2 and I used kingroot as opposed to towelroot, and used freegee to install 6.0.47. I grabbed CM11 from the website, went to flash it and was hit with an error 7.

Something may be wrong when you flashed back to JB, is it booting normal? You install busybox too right?
