Just received the OTA... After download cannot install due to the device been rooted.
Any idea how to bypass the root check or install?
You can try this app -
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amphoras.hidemyroot
But I think it will not work, you can trick some apps but can't trick the OTG (OS).
I think I've tried everything to hide root. I've even unrooted and it still won't update. You have to reflash the stock rom to get it to update OTA. If only someone knew where it's downloading to so that we can extract and manually update.

No knock code, but that can easily be added putting 2 files into system/apps from the G Pro 2. You can also add SlideAside.

So I've been checking daily for the JB update, and came across this small update today.
I attempted to apply this update, but was greeted with the following message after a failed update attempt.
So, is this LG attempting to patch the root exploit, or just being d! cks?
And, what is the simplest way to unroot? (just root, not bootloader unlocked)
Sent from my LG-F180L using xda app-developers app
Just wow. I have the F180K, rooted - installed 2 updates came over OTA - no problems. Root still here by the way.
Also OTA says no updates for me
Tried disabling Superuser in SuperSU and that didn't work. Tried enabling Survival mode in SuperSU Pro and that didn't work. Might just take my chances, run the full unroot, update, and hope that I can re-root.

My rooted Rogers LG-E971 just tried to run an OTA software update. Said update was cancelled because of suspected root.
I am curious to know what has been updated if anybody has or can find that information.
Yes! This problem can be solved, please read my post on this thread:

Pushed the update V10p via LGmobile Support Tool. Update completed, lost root, unable to re-root via Bin4ry method or otherwise. :shrug: Guess I wait for a new root method if one ever surfaces.
I have the .kdz from before the V10p update, could always revert back and root if I wanted to. Don't really see any need to at this moment.
Just received a 3rd update for F180K, but while installation it shows error 0x13E, probably cause of unlocked boot

I received that error with just root, never had bootloader unlocked.
Does anybody knows where the update is stored on phone?

Yea, I maintained root up to and including V10n. It is V10p that seems to break root and prevents re-rooting.

Must be we have different models, cause in case of F180K, firmware story was like this:

OP, does this work for you?
Woke up this morning to notification of new software update from att. I'm already on the official KK update from couple of months ago. Anybody else get this? What is the update?
http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB420581&cv=820
From the above link...
"Update to android 4.4, including improved security".
So what does this mean? What exactly in 4.4 has been updated? What security updates? Anyone know?
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for reply rom
But i actually meant did anyone know specifically the differences much like Andy's question
The update forced on my phone, crashed it because I had a custom recovery, so I had to flash back to. Jelly Bean and now I can't obtain root after re-updating.

Have you tried it on a device thats had the new ota update installed?
Also I thought there was a security concern with the kingo root method, something about it being from China and contains malwares that sends files back to its home server, supposedly these files are the ones necessary to clone the device.

Download the GPRO_Recovery_6.0.4.4.apk from this page and install it then use it to flash clockworkmod or tarphttp://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-g-pro/development/lg-g3-port-optimus-gpro-e980-t2827464
I haven't seen a clear answer on this, so does anybody know what root methods still work after the new update? If they all still do, is there anything I should do differently in the rooting process?
You have to wait till one of the methods gets an upgrade
BAD ASS G3
Well seeing as how the d851 boot loader is shipping unlocked from T-Mobile I think it would be pretty safe to say that once you manage to properly install the 10m OTA, you would simply flash TWRP from purpledrake in fastboot and from there flash supersu.

I used Stump root and mine is rooted again. I had to use the brute force root to get it done in Stump. After that I installed SuperU, TWRP and Busy Box.

Purpledrake probably replaced the M boot.img with the C boot.img. If it did that means your back on the C kernel and if it didn't you no longer have the modded disabled root checker.

Anyone have any idea what this update brings to the phone? It was pushed to my phone this morning and I dont know if i should update it or not. I highly doubt that it is lollipop however i want to know if it is safe to install the OTA and not lose functionality of exposed, rooted permissions, etc...
i don't think it's android L. see changelog here.

It's the for inflight text.
Did you get a notification on your phone about update or an announcement on t mobile's website? I haven't seen any posts about update nor customer service has any knowledge of it.
I just got an OTA for the update. you can always use LG's update tool to upgrade your software version. I was actually presented with another update this morning. I have no idea what it is. it does however bring the software from swv10q to KVT49L. It is still android 4.4.2 FYI
Is the update rootable (required for SD fix)?
Is there anyway to force this update? I'm on 10M stock
I havent gotten the notice and really am in no hurry to hook it up to the pc or force update right now. Has anyone actually updated to this and aside from the minor changelog were there any changes to the bootloader or anything?

purpledrake is blocked.. not sure if root will stick thru OTA or if manual updating will be required.
bootloader has been updated with the same changes the other G3 "pre-L" updates had (nothing noticeable to end users).
downgrading is NOT blocked or anything.
oh and to OP and others.. it's 10R.. not 10Q

So if stump was blocked through last update a drake is blocked now what are the options to regain root? By bootloader was updated does that mean it is now locked and will require bump?

Taking the OTA while already being rooted may allow root to stick through the update process... I cannot confirm that yet and we will need to wait for other users to report back. Your other options are not taking the OTA at all and instead using TWRP to manually update to 10R partition by partition (flashing modem, boot and system).. OR downgrading back to 10C/10M and continue using that. There most likely will not be an updated LG root in the immediate future... no reason to waste a bug when downgrading is still possible... every single G3 and other flagship LG device has root with some firmware version. Perhaps we'll see a new android-wide 4.4.x bug that would work for all.
As for bootloader... no we don't need bump.. we have an unlocked device. Update is not related to a lock.

not that I know of. easiest way will be to just dump the 10R kdz when it comes out and flash the partitions manually in TWRP. I'll probably make a secure flashable bootloader update zip.. and I'll have have the boot, modem and all the other partitions (minus system), as always, up on my codefire folder. Someone else will have to upload/mirror system for the masses.
