you can use framaroot to root your device, and then using freegee (from playstore) to backup EFS, Unlock the Bootloader, Install CWM Recovery (mako unlock)

what do you mean the root of the peripheral framaroot
because I framaroot install apk but it does not work
thank you

error message framaroot
failure ... try another feat from the list if there is (error # 5)

Then I managed to root with towelroot.com
but how do you save the EFS file
THANKS

App called FreeGee from Play Store.

Are as many as two methods of doing root.
Read my posts:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2787077

I will use and install CWM Recovery FreeGee but will I lose my paper photo applications ...
I hope that I will not have to install a new rom

No, you can't. Framaroot doesn't work on KK, as OP already figured out by himself...

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.

HELP! Cannot get freegee to work!

So I installed the 10K tot file and then used towel root to root the phone. Rootchecker says the phone is rooted but then every time I open freegee. it goes to the play store and starts busybox which I install but the freegee says cannot install file. What's going on here? Please help!

Did you install the busybox app or install busybox itself? because the app is just an installer...you have to open that app and use it to install busybox.

Yeah I installed busybox and when I run freegee I get a cannot download file error. Frustrated at this point now. Is towel root the issue here? Thanks!

Every time I start "from scratch" (which is a lot), I come from stock JB, towelroot, install supersu, busybox, then freegee. Works every time, so I'm confused...10k *is* stock JB right?

I always have to install Sphinx G Pro recovery before Freegee works for me: go here and do things.
(I always start out at a fresh v20g Kitkat though, so maybe I've forgot the correct protocol for Jellybeano.)
If you still can't get Freegee to work, or need a method that works offline, no internet required, I could send you over a ZIP with a batch file and stuff that'll do everything Sphinx and G Pro does, only manually (for e980 usage only), with no internet required.

Tried everything including the sphinx recovery method you suggested but still no dice. Freegee is kicking me in the nuts over and over again. So please go ahead and send me that zip file with some instructions and I'll greatly appreciate it and make a donation too. Thanks!

This covers it, though I see the TWRP I included has been updated. Whatever, this should do ya, and from there you can update. This is for a fresh Kitkat v20g install on an E980 (anything else I don't even remember).
I'd test on Jellybean, but I just sold my e980. Booyah.

G pro recovery, no reboot, then freegee flash twrp. Only thing that got it to work for me

It worked for me... I'm using E988 UAE firmware.
Method:
From 4.4.2 I downgraded to 4.1.2 and then I ROOTED and installed FreeGee TWRP recovery,
then installed Flashify and flashed the IMG.
I also tried the flashable zip but I keep getting "certification verify" on boot and finally, I decided to try the Flashify thingy..
After all day screwing my phone, softbricked it like 5 times, now its working with cm 11 installed and twrp 2.8.1.0
Thanks,

Hey.. Ive reas various conflicting posts regarding this but the one that worked on my Ogp was installing the g pro recovery then installing the kitkat recovery which installs cwm touch then u download the modified twrp which is i think 2.8.0.1 and then install that using flashify. That should work.

I see. I read too, lots of softbrick experiences.
When u say "Installing the G Pro recovery", do u mean that? - http://forum.xda-developers.com/opt...ecovery-boot-unlock-install-recovery-t3054295
Do u know about this new procedure that should make recovery work, even with Stock KK 4.4? Does it work?
Thank you!

Yes just install busybox in the busybox app, dont just download and install the app. Then freegee will work and you can use twrp from freegee. I always use twrp.

I have TWRP 2.6.3.0, and it is not able to read my external SD card. Can this one do that? also, is it possible to upgrade the TWRP from recovery mode by using ADB sideload? (in case of boot failure/softbrick/no OS)

if you have F240X then this one can't recognize your SDcard, but ADB sideload is working.
You can try this recovery, it can recognize your SDcard but adb sideload doesn't work on my F240L

[Q] Can't restore or Install Cyanogenmod on my LG G3 D855

Hi Ladies and Gents,
So I tried to Root my phone with this solution: LG G3 (D855) - How to install CyanogenMod 12 (Android 5.0 Lollipop) User Explore Gadgets On youtube (Can't post llinks....)
Everything worked fine and the phone got Rooted.
So I was going to install Cyanogenmod 12 using this solution: How to Root the LG G3 on Android 5.0 Lollipop (All Variants) (On youtube. User Qbking77)
But when I opened the app "Quick Boot" and pushed the "Recovery Option" i didn't come into the same view as he.
So I tried to do the same via TWRP... And tried to install it. Somehow.. I did something and now when I'm trying to get into the recovery mode the phone is black, and the LED is flashing Red and Blue.
And I cant reset the phone and I cant install Cyanogenmod.
Any thoughts what I have managed to do and how I solve it?
Thanks ALOT!

Hi
You need to downgrade to Kitkat and root it and then install TWRP. There are several threads here on XDA showing how to do this. Basically you need LG Flash tool on PC and download a Kitkat Kdz. If you go to the G3 general thread on here there is a tutorial on how to do it. I think itvis the first topic on the thread.

When you have TWRP installed on the phone it's just a matter of downloading a preferred CM12-based Rom and Gapps and flashing them in that order :good:

Thanks mate. but when you mean install TWRP, you mean only install the APP from the market and then boot into Recovery via the APP?
No options needed to be done within the app?
