Hello! So, the new software upgrade has came out 10L (my version is 855 european) and I'm rooted (with IOroot). Intalled Xposed Framework and these modules: AppOpsXposed, BootManager, Complete Action Plus, G3 TweaksBox, Greenify, Instragram downloader, Keepchat, XHangouts and Youtube AdAway.
What shall I have to do to install the update that has come out? Unistall Xposed and the modules and unroot or theres other method I should do?
Thanks!
Just flash it and reroot again! Thats All!

I have to flash it?
Wouldn't it work, If I unistalled the Xposed + modules and unrooted the device, with super SU for example? And then update it OTA?
Sure, but to flash and reroot is much easier and faster!

I was just asking this, because I had a nexus 5 and once I started to flash new versions of software... I couldn't no longer update OTA, it always gave me an error while downloading.. I'm just afraid that will happen to my G3, because now I like to flash, but sometimes, I just want to download OTA and I don't like when I receive an error, because that means, something is not the way it was supose to.
But thanks
Btw do you recommend any video/ post on the forum that helps with the flash of the new version?
Thanks again

By this I mean
What is best... upgrade by LG suite or Flashtool?

Is the phone rooted as well? Have you made any other modifications to the phone?
the update wont flash through twrp since its a custom recovery. (thats what I know)
anyways, assuming that you have your bootloader unlocked and a custom recovery installed, why dont you just do a backup of ur current rom and flash a new custom rom like viper or insert coin. they provide the latest updates.

You're getting different advice cause you're double-posting and not sticking to one person's advice
Me and most people do have life's families & jobs we just don't sit here to help people out as I have mentioned before I give you loads of information to help you and as so as other me members. We all wasn't born to know how to root and unlock bootloaders or get s-off some people know more and they write great information on how to do it now go and use Google and the search function what is implemented into xda to stop multiple posts.

Hello,
I have a G2 Running Stock LS980ZVA Kernel Version 3.4.0. Now I rooted the stock ROM and now got a notification to update the ROM to ZVC.
Now my dilemma is do I "Restart and Install" this update or not. Will this brick my phone?
I have TWRP running as the custom recovery. What should I be doing? I tried to search for a similar thread but couldn't find one.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you!
You will brick. Either hold your finger on the notification and then click app data. Click on the show notification. No check mark. Notification will go away.
Regular reboot will not install the update.
If you unroot and put regular recovery back. Then you could.

okay, i did some research and found that it is safe to install OTAs but if youre rooted youll lose the root and unlock will still stay.
best imo, is you upgrade to 4.4.2 and root again with custom recovery and install a nice ROM.

I was wondering if there was some method for rooting the LG G3 on Android 5.0 (Lollipop). I've searched far and wide on the internet but have found nothing so far. I did see that there were methods for the Nexus devices but nothing for LG.
Would like this as well. I thought I could live a while without root.. Seems like I just can't. :crying:
I think that you can find already rooted lollipop version on the forum.
For now, i nowhere found any root options.
Sent from my LG-D855
now it's impossible to root lollypop via purpledrake, ioroot or other programs but you can flash a rooted bumped rom.
I'll wait for this.
Same situation here.
Planned to use the pre-rooted lollipop but to use it you need twrp on the phone. To get twrp you need first root. So its a dead end, a points on b and b points back on a, both needing the other present first.....
Maybe if you flash an older kdz, root it with any of the previous methods, then get twrp on the phone and then flash the pre-rooted lollipop. Im just gonna wait for a lollipoproot without twrp needed.

I am on 5.0 and tried purpledrake (since i used it with 4.4.2), but it did not work, i also tried Stump and got an error too. With 5.0 the structure has changed and the methods for KK are different to Lollipop. So far, even with Nexus, the only way to root is through bootloader/kernel.
Hopefully soon we will see a method that can bypass this.
This is the method that works on the d855 by skin1980 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-lollipop-rooted-rom-skin1980-t2936022

Yup, thats the reason why i downgraded it to KK. Downgrade, root and you can install rooted L.
Sent from my LG G3
Does that work then? I'm on Lollipop 20a on the D855. If i install the KK kdz, will it make the phone rootable again? I read something to do with the boot loader not reverting back to how it was before lollipop

(you can flash almost any KK KDZ, v10x of course, but make sure it's for your device)
Root it with your preferred root method (i prefer Purple Drake)

Now you can flash the bumped roms you'll like. Just make sure, it's for your device.

Guys, I got the notification to update my ZE551ML to WW_2.20.40.59_20150807_7712_user_rel. Problem is, I already rooted and uninstalled many bloatware. Fortunately though, I've backed up all the bloatware before I uninstalled them with Titanium Backup. Will I be able to update my phone if I were to restore all of the original apps? And do I need to remove root/and or Xposed completely or do I just turn off root via SuperSU? Thanks in advance.
PS: I've tried updating the update directly prior to WW_2.20.40.59_20150807_7712_user_rel and it failed. I didn't restore any bloatware last time though. And I have NOTHING to do with any boot loader because I don't understand any of it. Please give me step by step to successfully update my phone (preferably without OTA).
I have the same question please help me

Better idea, TWRP backup before doing anything.
Easiest way?
Apply pre rooted image, you will not loose your setting or need unfreeze or reinstall bloatwear, just will need reinstal busybox and Xposed framework and update superSU. This is the fast way, Xposed will also wipe cache so phone will run smothie.

Yeah, but it takes so long.... And not everyone had the forethought to unlock their bootloader. Though I suppose you could still do it with the untethered TWRP too...

The V4Arise method of flashing works, you just use Flashify instead of TWRP. I used one of the zips in that page as well with no problems after installing. And to answer your previous question, if you do a full uninstall of SuperSU after installing Viper, I think it should work. The only part of Viper that ever needed root was the installing process from what I remember...
Do we have the root file for Odin yet?
