KDZ back to your jb release, root it, freegee it, get into your recovery, install the 4.4 release, install supersu zip, boot into 4.4, freegee it and you're done.
At this point, this is your only option. I was stuck here and no root methods seemed to work on this release.

Kitkat Root LG G Pro w/ TowelRoot

Root KitKat LG G Pro or Any Device W/ TowelRoot
Its real folks, hacker Geohot created an apk file that claims to root any android device. I have personal tried this with my LG G Pro AT&T on KitKat 4.4.2 KOT49l.E98020g and I'm now rooted. Links Below
The method found on this form below allowed me to install clockwork mod recovery onto my device. From there I was able to download FreeGee from the play store to install Twrp Recovery.

Just did it on my E980. Installed Chainfire 1.99 for SuperUser, and then tried Titanium Backup to verify root. Everything is GOOD!
only issue was some confusion as to where the SU apk was stored. Roundly found it, and everything went smoothly!!!

When you've installed that recovery, download Freegee from the Play Store and install CWM 6.0.4.7. It can also backup your EFS partition.

Thanks

thanks work perfect on my ATT LG Optimus G PRO 4.4.2

WOWZERS!
Crap that was easy. Anybody seeing a difference in battery life? Heard it is diminished with root.

worked like a charm
if you want to install cwm , first install GPRO_Recovery_6.0.4.4
then use freegee tool

Has anyone tried this with e98020h. My phone forced the update when i wasnt paying attention and i had cwm installed which soft bricked my phone. I used lg flash tools to get back up and running but let it update to e98020h to check it out. Anywho i tried to root it with towelroot and softbricked the phone again. Just wondering if it was a hickup and if anyone can confirm towelroot doesnt work with e98020h.

got a small OTA package yesterday (about 89Mb). I unroot my phone and download the OTA. LG said the update package includes apps updates. After I've installed the update, I didn't see much difference (apart from the fact the the home launcher seems to be more fluid). But when i tried to root my phone using TowelRoot, it failed. ... so, please beware. if u don't want to loose your root, don't install the latest OTA update.

i am e98020g.. how to install cwm in that? rooted via towel root

- Download G Pro Recovery and Freegee.
- Open G Pro Recovery and select the 'Flash Recovery' option at the of the menu.
- Then open Freegee and choose your recovery. (Probably not a bad idea to take advantage of the EFS backup there and transfer that backup off the phone for emergency purposes.)
Towelroot -> G Pro Recovery -> Freegee == works for me every time.

It works on most phone with new LG stock recovery. In new v20 Stock recovery LG allow user to adb sideload zip and flash anything to our phone. That script just flash su and root your phone.
PS. You cannot use it with old LG recovery.

No, you need to unroot it first. But most unroot method leave some files that make LG OTA fail. So if you root your phone when you need to upgrade with official LG OTA, you need to flash stock kdz back.

ok thanks i just want to clarify that, maybe ill just wait for now. Hoping LG would bring another upgrade before i decide to finally root my phone. Android L maybe? what do you think? would LG ever care to upgrade our G?

IMO, LG will not update our phone to Android L but we will get it from dev anyways. Kitkat v20b update is stable and battery friendly, it maybe last update from LG for our 2 years old phone.

It's such a shame that they are already considering it as kind of Obsolete. The OG still packs a formidable specs(still better than most of Mid-Tier phones lately), and it's an ex-Flagship of LG to start with. I understand they should ditch the OG for their newer products to sell out but it's pretty unfair for those who have the G. Unfair to the fact that the Xperia Z(which has the same specs with OG) is still supported by SONY and it is now on 4.4.4

you can try installing custom recovery (TWRP or any custom recovery you want) and flash the Super user and remove kinguser this way should work i guess

sir please help me rooting my device ive got lg g3 d855 android version 5.0 software version V20n-234-30. thanks

Please help me root my G3 too. I'd love to know how

this is a simple way root your device not sure if it will work but it works with marshmallow tho
1)you will download kinguser apk from playstore and try to root your phone try to root your phone if it failed you will download the windows version of iroot from here http://www.iroot.com/ (you are rooted here)
If you want to swap to supersu
2)you will need to install a custom recovery which will be simple will install this from google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager&hl=en thats TWRP and will select your device
3)https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip you will need to download this zip and reboot to custom recovery you can do it manually or by this apk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.petrus.tools.reboot
flashing a zip: will be by pressing install in recovery then you will search for the zip in the location you put it in. im not responsible for anything happens to your device.

You cannot install a Custom Recovery on the 815P due to the Bootloader being locked and LG has no plans of unlocking it so the best option for you is Flashfire (in the play store). You have to be rooted though.
