Ok. This is confirmed....But
Has anyone modded this to flash outside the software update? Since my phone is rooted and lokified it will not take the update, and a boot loop or something is waiting.
Has anyone have a download and "modded" version for us lesser children???:angel:
Thanks !

BE ADVISED: More than likely if you are rooted and you go back to stock and flash this ROM, you will NOT be able to root right away, and Free Gee probably will not work, so if this is important to you. Do NOT flash this ROM OTA. wait till the dev's come up with a rooted version.

[Q] Update to lolipop

Can I update to Lolipop directly instead of updating: -> 10L -> Lolipop?
If yes, what is the best way for me to update, since I'm rooted with Xposed Framework, stock bootloader
Thanks in advance!

Also would like to know.. Up*

If you are using the final build of the Android L KDZ then you'll be fine to flash it from any version as the KDZ contains all necessary files. @autoprime has confirmed on his twitter feed that this update does not implement anti-rollback so you should be fine to downgrade and Bump in the future if you want. Hope this helps!

But I'm not using the final build of Android... I'm asking if I can upgrade to lollipop, when it's officially out, instead updating to 10L and then update to Lollipop

I know that... I just wanna know if I need to do 2 updates or I can just jump to lollipop once it's officially out. I just said that I have Xposed and the rest, for you guys to tell me which is the best way to update in these conditions.
Thanks.

I said the Lollipop update contains all necessary files. The final KDZ is what they will push when Android L gets officially updated on your device, or a TOT or .dpkg. You will not need to update in between as you never do inbetween major system updates. If an official update ever has dependencies, it will not let you update without them so don't worry. You would be able to jump from any version you like to Android L. Like I said though, we will have a ported version of Android L long before the official update. Also, although @autoprime has confirmed the release of Android L for the D855 does not implement anti-rollback, this does not mean that other variants will not implement something to keep us from going back to previous software versions, then you may be stuck with Android L but no root or TWRP permanently. I can not emphasize enough how much I do not agree with taking any official updates if you are the slightest bit interested in root or custom roms for you phone.
Also, you only get notified if someone directly quotes a post of yours or if you mention someone by username using @ like I did for @autoprime above.
If I've helped, hit the thanks button!

If you want to update officially with the KDZ, the best option is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799647
Just use the tool and official KDZ to ensure everything is wiped and completely updated.
There is already a rooted Android L .zip ready to flash via TWRP that is available in the General G3 Development thread. Good luck with either route.

Love you.

Thank you so much! Finally someone who gave me a perfect answer for all my questions! Thanks again! By the way my model is indeed 855 international. Is the released Android L KDZ the official one? because I wanted the fully stable version released by LG...

His twitter feed Auto(utoprime) shows recent tweets where he bolded the fact that it does not implement it.

It's a few tweets down and it specifically says the D855 20A update does not use anti-rollback.

[Q] Questions on rooting and upgrading to Lollipop - AT&T D85010d

I've been reading and reading and I'm slowly learning more about rooting and so on, but I need some help understanding how to upgrade to Lollipop safely. I'm an ex-iPhone user, so please be gentle. Instead of asking a billion annoying questions throughout the forums, I thought it might help if I summarized my situation and asked my questions in a single thread. Hope this is an acceptable approach.
Below is info about my phone, software and what I've done so far root wise.
* I have an 32gb LG G3 with AT&T - I'm in the US.
* I'm running Android version 4.4.2
* Kernel version 3.4.0
* Build number KVT49L.D85010d
* Software version D85010d
* I rooted using 'towelroot'
* I installed 'Busybox', doing nothing more than just installing as instructed.
* I installed the 'Root Browser' and disabled all bloatware using a thread here on XDA (super improvement in performance overall afterward)
* I've installed and running 'Nova Launcher'. I've made various changes to the 'Look and Fee', eliminating all animation and other visual effects. (This too improved performance overall)
* I've converted the (This too improved performance overall)
* In 'Developer Options', I've set 'Window animation', 'Transition animation', and 'Animator during scale' to 'off' (This too improved performance overall)
* I've converted my runtime framework to 'ART'
* I have installed Greenfy, Advanced Task Manager & Clean Master to help with the obvious memory/space/task management.
* I have the paid version of Titanium Backup and I've backed up my apps, userdata, etc.
The performance and battery life of this phone has come a long way since making all of these changes. I'm very happy with it now.
So now Lollipop is coming soon or may be here already?
* When going into 'Settings' and 'Software Update', it says there is a new AT&T software update available. It's 163.MB in size. What is this?
Not sure, but I don't plan to find out
With all of the above said, my questions are:
* What guides or process should I follow to update to Lollipop?
* Will I lose everything?
* Is this recommended to update and start from new?
* Am I missing anything?
* Should I install anything else?
* Should I be concerned with 'bump', 'twrp' and these other common apps/tools?
Thanks in advance for helping me out. I just want to be sure I don't brick my phone. I'm a very technical and geeky dude and I feel I've gotten pretty far at this point by reading a lot, but the wealth of information, methods, etc. on upgrading/rooting have me a bit nervous to do anything further.
Thanks! :fingers-crossed:

Rule of thumb...
DONT UPDATE UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR A FACT THE UPDATE IS ROOTABLE.
I've seen one person say he was able to root again with purple drake on google+. That's it. One guy. That's suspect at the very least. The timing of this update is odd also. It could either be an update preparing for lollipop with various system optimizations or it could be "security enhancements" (Read: Patched root and bump exploits). I'm not taking the update. There's really no reason to. Even if it does have some updates that improve the device functionality it would be barely noticeable. In fact the only thing I would notice would be the aux cable bug. Even IF they fixed that it would still be fixed in lollipop and Dev skin1980 said lollipop patched root exploits so he released a patch to keep the rootable KitKat boot image. If you're happy with the device, wait. Once lollipop is released for d850 there will be a patched version released shortly after. If root is important to you (obviously it is if you're using greenify, TB etc) then wait. Rumor has it that the lollipop bootloader cannot be downgraded. You'd be boned if you did the ota.

Thanks, BreakingVZW. I suspected this. Thanks for confirming.
Question: Do I have everything I need to handle the Lollipop update/install when uploaded here on XDA?
Thanks again for taking the time to answer.

Once they release the rooted version of lollipop that is patched for bump all you need to do is flash it via twrp. You're good to go if you're rooted and have twrp.

Thanks! I've been dying to ask for a SITREP on 5.0 for 850, all the 855 threads are making me jealous. Beers to the first Dev to cook up a daily, stable version!

OK. Question about being rooted and 'bump'
Do I have to do anything right now like install twrp? What difference is that app compared to busybody? Not the same?
As for bumping, is this something I have to do or flash to enable? When should I do this?
Thanks again for answering all of my questions.

Twrp is custom recovery. Bump allows custom recovery to be flashed so we can flash roms. You'll need twrp if you want to flash rooted Lollipop

OK. I think I understand.
I'll definitely need twrp. Bump is an option, not a requirement?

CURRENTLY, the only way to get TWRP onto an 850 is via flashing bump. Then flashing TWRP over stock recovery.

Ah ok.. Thanks for clarifying. I'm sure there is a thread or two around here that will help with this?

Would this be an appropriate method to restore to stock and prepare for the Lollipop update?
In another thread I saw someone say they used a combination of LG backup and titanium backup to restore.
Thoughts?

Hello, I was looking through the Android Development section and sadly both the available ROM's were only for the 7 inch version of this tablet, I was wondering if you have planned any development for the 10.1 inch version, I would love to see a CM or custom ROM of Lollipop for this tablet.

Hmm, tried this one on LG GPad 8.3 KK 4.4.2, didn't work sadly, it may be that I only have a VM of Windows and there's an issue with mapping COMx to ttyx in VirtualBox that I'm not at all sure how to overcome. Adb finds the device, so it's at least communicating, but when it's time to run the exploit it just stops on the download screen. If anyone knows a good way to figure out which port is "diag" on a linux box (it's easy to *map* it, just difficult to know *what* to map) please do share. I've been searching high and low for a few days, and have learned a lot, just not what I need lol. I'd rather not do a hard install of Windows if I can avoid it, but I'm fresh out of ideas. I was thinking it might be that the software updated to VK70011A from VK700, but judging from the post above this one, that's unlikely(hence the edit). Not giving up just yet, but *any* input would be greatly appreciated.

...ammend that, trashed my partition table trying to move LVs around to do a Windows install, so backed up, and just scrapped the whole thing and started over with a dual boot from scratch. NOW it's rooted right and proper, yay, I can actually use the sd card I dropped $100 on, thanks for the link, worked like a dream.

I rooted with 5.0.2 and DP-Tools. My virus scanner alarmed me, but I guess/hope it is not a real virus.
I do not have LTE, but the DP-Tools is for LG-Devices in general.
Only missing thing is xposed framwork (doesn't run in lollipop)...i would love to remove softkeys in chrome while browsing.

I have yet to get this to work on my VZW 10.1. It hangs during the download screen portion. Any thoughts would be helpful.
TIA.

The single-click root worked on my US Cellular UK410. Thanks!

Interesting. I have a 4G VK700 I just got and Kingroot works fine. There is no reason to swith superuser apps because kingroot provides plenty of features and there's nothing I have been unable to do. I put in T-Mobile APN settings and my 4g signal was on and conected after reboot. I will post my sofware version and kingroot version. I don't know why you would install an update unless it is needed to run something you have been unable to run.
Just FYI most updates these days simply lock you out from or make root more difficult to get. and they often cause hardware issues regardless of wether it is rooted or not.

BUT GSM/LTE radio will shut off for a second every 30sec-1min. Kinda lame. Maybe there's a way around it.. I'm not sure yet... feel free to mess around.

Thanks.

it will be 5.0.1.. it is still technically 5.0 like the site says.
All US carriers started off with 5.0.1.. vs Intl getting 5.0.
Intl will probably get 5.1 first tho.

Just updated my lg g3 to android 5.0.1 yesterday by using the upgrade recovery option in the Lg mobile support tool. I used this same method to get the other minor update that t mobile had a while back as well. Everything is running smoothly and i've had no problems so far.
