Yes it is the sprint version, I'll look on there.

i rooted while on z8, then installed root keeper, updated to z9 then restored root through rootkeeper app.

if its an E975 running JB it sounds like its already rooted seeing as no official 4.1.2 has been released yet for that model unless that's the korean model . I could be wrong though. Wouldn't be the first time. Check in app drawer for super user icon.

You can root it with the method posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2112190
Might take a few tries but it works as I tried it on the E975 KDZ a couple of times.
Then download busybox from market.

Thanks... it works beautifully!

Now I think to think of how to fastboot recovery into this phone. Can't seem to be able to enter it..
This LG phone sure is a learning curve for a former Samsung s3 user

Maybe jump on the IRC channel and ask for the E975 freegee if available. It will unlock bootloader and inject cwm for you. Then you just reflash a newer cwm version which can be found in the AT&T section.

Hi,
i have red different things about how to root an e975.
So i have a few questions before to root my phone.
Is there a better method than another to root my optimus G?
Is there a way to unroot it easily later?
If i unroot it, will it be exactly the same as a never-rooted optimus g?
Will it be possible to update officially my phone when an update will be available? (with root? unrooted?)
thanks for your answers

the easiest way is to use motochopper to unroot, after u need to unlock the boot loader with freegee available on the mp...
now you re ready to flash a new ROM.
at your own risk....
ask yourself what u want to achieve with root... if you want to get the last stock lg experience, you don't need to root.

I think you're referring to towelroot. It doesn't work on the 855 version yet as far as I know.

The very easy way to root is in this thread! I also did it this way!

If you just want to root your phone, try towelroot.apk. You must be really lazy because a Google search on rooting lg-e980 will tell you about towel root app.

By any chance you have link to a thread which points to installing a custom recovery on my E988 (running official Kit Kat) ? SW version is E98820c-ESA-XX

Help needed for noob trying to downgrade then unlock bootloader

Hey guys just bought a second hand lg g3 appears to be the singapore model. Its a 32gb D855 and was running lollipop 5.0 when i got it. Im trying to downgrade it to android 4.4 kitkat so i can then unlock bootloader and flash TWRP so i can flash roms. 1) is that plan correct aahaha will this even work. 2) what kdz file do i need off here http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/D855/ theres two singapore models which one do i need? thanks a lot guys

Hi
You should have no need to downgrade to Kikat. Search XDA G3 forum for Root tool v3 and use it to root and followthe instructions on installing TWRP.
I have the Taiwan version of the D855 32Gb and that is how i did it on Lollipop 5.0.

Yes i know but in xda people don't like using kingroot app.... say it has security issue.....also get kernel panic issue with kingroot but it can be just for me...

Yeah but if you install a custom. Rom after using King root you can use it and for me it was only option because of broken USB port
