UNROOT - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there, can i unroot my g3 by clicking on supersu "full unroot" setting? I rooted using towel root and installed xposed framework and g3 tweaksbox to change a few things here and there. I also uninstalled some bloat using titanium backup. However i realized that i can no longer use android run time which kinda bums me out because it felt a lot smoother to me. Any help with unrooting would be greatly appreciated...

Because I tried it.
And another Verizon person couldn't get it to work. And no one on Verizon has yet confirmed that it does work.
LG Suite just won't recognize the Verizon G3 at all.

[Q] I received the D851 10m OTA today. Some questions.

I have rooted, and I have xposed installed.
What is the upgrade procedure? Do I need to go so far as to remove root? Any advice appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have T-mobile LG G3 and I also received 154 MB update this morning. My device was rooted with Xposed installed. After the updated, i lost my ROOT access, everything else remains the same. Hope this helps.

Got this just now...but don't wanna lose root. The notification is annoying as hell. I would flash and update if it won't bork everything but I'd settle for just getting rid of the notification. Anybody know how to get rid of it??

When I long press, I see "App Info" and when I press it, it shows Google Play Services.
When it is disabled, does the update go away, or is it still on my G3 waiting to be installed?
Anyone know how this happened? I'm rooted, with custom everything, and I have OTA updates disabled!
I'm doing a TWERP backup anyway.
Anyone that has installed the update - did you get root back?

[Q] Rooting after the new update(10m)

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.

Towelroot worked fine for me. There's a thread for it, and it is WORK, but it can be done. I will have to wait until I get home to find and link the thread for you though. VK810, Version VK81011A, 4.2.2.
I rooted with stump root, with no issues.

Ran into issues with Stump. Towelroot worked fine, but the links to the files are down and I'm a still in noob territory. I have Dropbox, Mega, and Box. I can upload everything to either, with very simple instructions, or if you tell me where you want it, I'll get it there. I'll even zip the whole thing and email it to you if it'll help.

[Q] How to get TWRP on D850?

Hello,
I have the att D850 that is still stock rooted. I now want to install TWRP on my device and flash since development for the g3 finally seems to be picking up I rooted with TowelRoot, and just want to know the best method of successfully installing TWRP on my device.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

There is only one. Bump'd link http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/orig-development/bump-unlock-lg-g3-twrp-t2900569
Does this phone have a root indicator like the G2 did? In download mode I believe it was. And also in about phone it would say modified or something.

Using the phone dialer pad enter 3845#*850#. (Relace 850 with your variant). This allows you to enter the hidden menu. Look for LG RCT tag and display result. The content of the file will indicate whether G3 is rooted or not.

I believe you can use flashily to flash an OEM (signed) ROM, or a 'bumped ROM'.

"Is there a difference to using Flashify vs. Bump??"
You asked for input, and I gave you one. I told you the one difference between using the original Bump installation proces, and using a noob tool like flashify that does everything for you.
There is no difference between the two, they do the same stuff after all.

My original question was if there was a difference between using one over the other; If BUMP did something Flashify couldn't or vice versa. Not which one was the easiest to do or is "noob" friendly. Why go out of my way to use ADB on my PC when I can just download the TWRP img to my phone and flash it from the phone itself? Either way, this has been solved and I now have TWRP. Thanks for your input, anyways.

Look in the S8 plus forum for ROMs for the Partcyborg ROM. You should be able to flash that because it is a bootloader version 2 ROM.
