[Q] G pad 8.3 Root problems

I previously rooted my tablet. Then Verizon finally put out 5.0 lollipop update. Now rootchecker, superuser, and other root tools says my tablet isn't rooted but stumproot says it is. I want to reroot my tablet can any one help?

Use LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the 24A KDZ, use Stump to root, put the bump'd 4.2.2 aboot (bootloader) on and install the loki'd TWRP v2.7.0.1. Upgrade to ClockworkMod Recovery (thread in Development) and then flash my ViKtory810 ROM from my thread listed in my signature below. I haven't updated my ROM OP, I know I say to use TWRP but flashing SuperSU.zip in TWRP and trying to boot 35A_08 (official LG Lollipop) has caused problems for some people that's a little bit of a pain to get out of. My ROM thread has all the rest of the instructions you need once you have custom recovery on there.

[Q] A few questions about Custom ROMs

Hello everyone! I'm not really new to this Android rooting and unlocking bootloader stuff (I did this to my previous Xperia phones) but I'm "new" with it now because I'm now an LG user. I currently own the D855 Global variant.
So here are my questions:
1.) Is it necessary to unlock the bootloader to flash custom ROMs? Or is root enough? (I rooted my phone yesterday and installed TWRP with AutoRec for D855 users) I'm kinda interested with the Cloudy G3 ROM.
2.) Is it necessary to unlock the bootloader to flash custom kernels?
3.) What does bump mean? I haven't heard this term before.

1) No, you do not need to unlock your bootloader on lg g3 to flash Cloudy ROM or other custom ROMs.
You are not even able to unlock the bootloader on this phone currently. If you already
flashed TWRP go get your Cloudy ROM and flash it with TWRP.
2) Again no. Like I said you are not able to unlock bootloader on this phone currently.
But you will be able to flash custom kernels because they are BUMPed.
3) And finally BUMP is a way of signing boot image so it could be booted on LG bootlader without the bootloader itself being unlocked. All XDA ROMS for LG G3 I found here are already prebumped so you are able to download them and flash immediately.

Thank you so much! Another question tho, if I flash any stock based custom kernel, how do I get back to stock if in any case I would want to?

Before flashing anything you should always do backup with TWRP or other custom recovery you already have. If you did your backup there, just restore it that way.
In case you did not, you are able to use LG flash tool and flash stock kdz files.
Also you could backup your boot.img(kernel that is...) using app like Flashify and restore it with it if necessary.
And again I recommend doing a nandroid backup with TWRP before flashing anything at all.

E986 cannot boot OS

Hello Peeps,
Ik have a E986 with a problem
When i rooted my phone and run freegee i only see the options of installing CWM/TWRP or Backup/Restore EFS.
There is no option to unlock my bootloader.
It is still possible to flash a recovery and a rom, but i can only boot into the recovery.
The only option is to flash a stock KDZ file and return to stock.
I've used freegee and different roms succesfull in the past, but because a soft brick i had to return to stock.

I want LS980ZVD Stock Recovery.

Hello Everyone, I was using Sprint LS980 with LS980ZVD Firmware in which Access Point Name Option is available, recently I was curious to try out CloudyG2 2.2 for which I have rooted my phone with towelroot and installed TWRP recovery through autorec. Now I want to restore my LS980ZVD backup with stock recovery but the problem is that I had not backed up the stock recovery before getting TWRP recovery. I have tried TOTing back to ZVC than take OTA update of ZVD and backing up the stock recovery using flashify but when I am flashing this recovery with my old LS980ZVD firmware my phone is stucked in "Recovery Mode Loading...". I'm writing this post to ask if someone using this phone in Pakistan or any other country and have their phone unlocked (with LS980ZVD and access point name option) and have backed up the stock recovery and can upload it here. I will be very thankful to him. Thank you and Love you guys. :victory:

Recovery doesnt boot on D851.

So I recently bought an Lg G3 D851 and the phone was already Rooted and bootloader unlocked. So i downloaded some root checkers to verify and then installed SuperSU. Since after doing some research I knew that the T-Mobile variant comes with a factory unlocked bootloader. I tried flashing the latest twrp from their own website using flashify, it would flash successfully but instead of going into twrp when rebooting into recovery, it just says: Fastboot mode started. It is the same case for all the other recoveries i could find for the d851. Im on Kitkat 4.4.2.

You can try using the latest twrp i think is 3.0.0.2, and your problem of fastboot.
Re-flash the system since a tot or kdz becasue you have damaged the bootloader and the recovery givin that the last hope who is fastboot mode.
i hope have you fixed the problem.
