So you're on stock right now? And it is ZVC right? And you updated via updates or LGNPST, right?
If all of the above is correct, ... are you using the KK recoveries?
If you are, then when you flash the ROM you may need to install the flashable SuperUser.
If you're just trying to root and unlock your phone, look in the Development section for the root guide. You must be on stock to root/unlock your phone. If you used Freegee to unlock them you'll have the required recovery to flash KK ROMs.

Ok first off, sheesh on the all caps bro - don't need to yell! lol. I am a little confused though. You downloaded all the files but how did you actually try to root? I'm confused because you say clockworkmod recovery says "error while flashing your device" but it's my understanding that you can't even install CWM without having root access. Can you still get back into your stock? If you can, look at your apps, if you see Superuser or SuperSu then you are rooted. If not, you have two options - use the Framaroot app that you can find in the play store. Install that and use the Gandalf exploit. Option two is to use Fiddy619's Universal root method, just search the general section here and you should find it. I have tried both and both have worked successfully. After that, you need to unlock your bootloader in order to install CWM or TWRP correctly. The easiest method is to install another app from the play store called "FreeGee" and use the sbl unlock method. It will unlock the bootloader and install either CWM or TWRP for you, your choice. If you have any questions or run into more problems just let me know and I'll help dude.
EDIT: @engine95 is much faster than I.
EDIT#2: I type too much, Lol! Also, I haven't used FreeGee in awhile and keep forgetting it's been overhauled - not sure if you even have to pick sbl unlock or it's just become the default.
Just barely. Besides... 2 heads are better than one.

Hey all,
Just got my Gpad 8.3 v50020d kitkat 4.4.2 yesterday. Trying to flash a CM ROM preferably, but having nothing but issues.
I was able to get TWRP 2.8 installed, and make a backup of stock. Have been able to wipe and restore no problems. But everytime I try to flash cm-11-20140910-INFECTED-v500 I get a failed error. Also, can't flash the KitKat gapps-kk-20140606.
Never had problems flashing custom ROMs on my ASUS tablet, galaxy S4, Hisense tablets, so a little guidance would be MUCH appreciated.
I must be overlooking something...please help all.
Thanks so much.

V500 is very tricky tablet, i had issues too, but after few tries i was able to install slimrom, latest weekly build. The newest TWRP is a must, you can't install any ROM without it, so there is probably your problem. If not, try to wipe. First factory reset and then advanced wipe and check first 4 options I think. Flash ROM and it should work.
But I want to ask you - don't you have unmount SD issue? If not, try to monitor it after flashing ROM, it can appear and it's pain in the ass
Well I do know if you take the 4.4.2 OTA after purchase or you buy with 4.4.2 installed,
Its 10 times more of a pain to root/recovery/rom on 4.4.x base, it's a lot easier on 4.2.2 base.
As for TWRP I'm on 2.6.3.2 and never had any problems.

Appreciate the replies all.
After wiping again, I tried flashing CM 11.0 Nightlies and it worked without a hitch. Also flashed the same gapps zip but this time it worked. I don't know whats up, I was having external SD issues so I put the ROMs on internal storage as well.
Now that its all up and running, I have root,and no problems accessing external SD card. Also, knock on works as does my smart cover. Couldn't be happier. Incredible battery life and amazing speed.

probably the easiest way is using this TWRP Manager (ROOT) app from the Play store. It will allow you to install TWRP onto your rooted, unlocked bootloader device.
I did it a harder/longer way without the above app so try the TWRP Manager app first.
Good luck!

Just curious, has anybody confirmed that the TWRP manager app is compatible with the V500? Does it deal with the Loki exploit required for our tablet?

I would download the TWRP (for our device) of the xda thread to be honest,
And flash manually through a flashing app off Google Play (I use Flashify, but there a few on there)
In theory if it grabs the TWRP file for the V500 it would have the Loki patch in the recovery file, but I wouldn't take the chance just in case it grabs any random file lol
Manual is the best on the tablet itself, or do it through a PC and push the TWRP file through ADB to the recovery partition.
But now-a-days you just run the .bat files and it does all the mumbo jumbo for you and reboots straight to the recovery.
Hope all goes well!

I agree. Until somebody can confirm that this app works reliably with our tablet, I would go with the manual approach.

I can't remember all the details. But I'm pretty sure I put the 2.6 version of TWRP onto my internal storage, downloads folder, I think (I did have an external SD card installed too, but I can't remember where I put TWRP initially). Then installed it using the stock recovery...Once TWRP 2.6 was on there, I upgraded to 2.8. Then, made my stock backup and then flashed CM 11.

You're rooted right?
My device has an unlocked bootloader. Does yours say the same?
Which version of twrp are you trying to install?
Once above is done try using twrp manager in the play store.
Let me know how it goes.
How do I unlock the freaking bootloader? I have root and twrp but cant boot into it because of the locked bootloader
I am in the same boat. I have rooted my device and I can't get any further.

I'm Pretty Much a Complete newb so that said.
From I understand I need to install a cusom recovery so I can flash the stock Rom in case something goes wrong.
Also do I need to turn off ota updates?
Could someone point to a custom recovery, and stock rom. (with detailed instructions)
If it helps the adroid version is 4.4.2, thats what came on it when I got it. which was Monday.
Any Help for a poor nooby would be much appreciated! Many Thanks.

well I followed he prompts and installed busybox and patced to write to external sd, but when i click to select my device name it just goes back to the main page of the app.
I think it says Twrp has stopped. very quickly then takes me back to home page of the app.
After checking I was getting the same error. I really don't know what is up with that program for it to do that. I mainly use it to reboot into recovery. You could find the latest TWRP on XDA, save it to your SD card and use a program called Flashify from the Play Store and flash it that way.

Hello all.
I have been trying to root our kfhd89 and keep running in to errors while rooting.
Sometimes get an error about insufficient space on the device to push certain files or the whole procedure finishes but with no root access..
I have tried option 1 in z root and option 3. I've tried various methods (from the tutorials on here) to no avail.
Sometimes I get to the slow (broken lock screen) stage but can go no further regarding flashing 2nd BL/recovery.
Please help I'm going nuts here lol
No body got any ideas?
The issue is bloatware that got added to the factory set. It is recommended to delete officesuite.apk to make room.
I don't have the link handy, but if you search the forums there are some options to add these commands to the bin4ry script. It worked for me on 8.5.1.

Hi thanks. I have managed to root it now but cannot flash a recovery img file (like twrp) it just won't do it. I've tried 4 or 5th different methods but no luck
Read the post about how to install TWRP 2.7.0 under the developers forum for the 8.9. It worked on mine with rooted 8.5.1. There is also a nice YouTube video showing how to do the fire flash.

Yes mate I've tried ALL the guides and like I said none of them work, the cmd prompt itself cant write or send the . Img file over but doesn't say why. I've been rooting phones since my Samsung omnia so I'm not an amature with this sort of thing.
As part of the root process, you likely needed to delete some bloatware files, such as officesuite.apk. If not, then you still may not have enough space to do the bootloader process. Which files did you clean out?

Rooting w/ Kingroot (if it works) is only temproot, as soon as you reboot the phone root is gone. So this tute doesn't really give you the whole process to achieve perm root on your G3.

You have to download the latest version of Kingroot. I think it's 4.9.something. The links on some of the pages are to earlier versions that didn't work for me either. Search for the latest Kingroot version. I don't think it was on the main website.
To be honest I don;'t like Kingroot at all.
It installs it's self as a system app and puts this purify program on (and btw it's a temp root on the LG G3, if you restart , you have to do it again). And it seems to have issues with SuperUser once you flash the ROM. Some appz would get root access and others wouldn't. It was quite annoying. I am waiting for a Stock.zip of MM to come out before I go back to it. For now I would stick to LP 30E Bloatware free. Very easy to root.
And if anyone that is reading this knows how to get MM to stop asking you if you want to wipe your ass for every little thing tell me how to disable it. Every time I connect it to my PC, it's like "are you sure you want to allow USB connection?". No I slipped and it plugged in all by it's self! Even when doing some of the most basic stuff, it asks 'Allow' or 'Deny'? Extremely annoying. The only thing that is a plus is the Bluetooth function. It doesn't ask you to enter the '0000' or '11111' code when connecting different devices like it does on LP, KK, JB, and ICS.
Edit: The Kingroot version that worked for me was NewKingrootV4.9.6_C151_B329_en_release_2016_09_30.apk. I think the one on the Kingroot website is older and named "NewKingrootV4.9.6_C151_B309_en_release_2016_08_18_105203.apk". Just do a search for the former and it should work to temp Root MM. Remember, if you restart the phone the Root will go away.
Once you temp root it, download TWRP's latest version, twrp-3.0.0-0-d851.img or what ever and put it in the phones main directory. Then download the terminal emulator that has the green android fella on it from the play store and type these commands in:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp-3.0.0-0-d851.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
reboot recovery
(Just make sure in the line "dd if=/sdcard/twrp-3.0.0-0-d851.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery" you type the name of the TWRP img you put in the phone.
