If a stock Lollipop update was available (maybe in Poland, but I think that is the only place currently), then this might apply to you. It seems that you might be able to root the 5.0 ROM, but you would most definitely lose Bump and the ability to flash a custom recovery or ROM.
Any Lollipop ROM that is being floated around the forums already has a kernel that has been modified and rooted. It does not apply in those cases.
Can anyone confirm that it's working?:good:

Do we need to upgrade TWRP to 2.8.3 before flashing lollipop?

No. 2.8.0.0 works fine.
Hello guys!
I own an HTC ONE M8 [non rooted- just stock] and I have updated my device to Lollipop 5.0.1 via OTA. Unfortunately, since Xposed is currently working under beta conditions, I want to downgrade to 4.4.4 to use the "full power" of my device So my plan is to:
1. root and unlock the bootloader of my HTC [currently on stock Lollipop 5.0.1]
2. Download and flash a ROM based on KitKat 4.4.4
3. Install Xposed and all the goodies it supports [Amplify, Greenify etc]
Is my plan possible?
Thanks in advance!!
Yes ...
That's not really downgrade, it just install 4.4.4 custom ROM, so your plan should work

So, a downgrade would be returning to stock Sense 4.4.4, right? I am not interested in that.
I just want to flash a custom rom, based on 4.4.4. If that is possible with the steps I plan to follow, then OK
Yes
If I want to return to stock 4.4.4 from Lollipop, do I still need to root the phone? The phone worked perfectly well before the Lollipop update, I really regret updating, I see no benefits whatsoever and lots of problems.

Yes. You either have to root, or gain S-Off and run a 4.4.4 RUU.
Hi,
I want to root and install CM13 on my H815 10c International G4.
For rooting i`ll use this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
After root, CM sites states: For CyanogenMod 13.0 it's required that your device is running stock Android 6.0 (H815_V20A or higher).
So i need to first flash a 6.0 ROM, but which? I found this: H81520B_00 zip 1.4GB.. but i`m not sure that this will install cleanly once rooted.
Basically how to i get to 6.0 so i can install CM13?
Thanks

You can upgrade to 6.0 but if you want to flash CM after that,you have to unlock your bootloader first,then root,then flash Twrp...
The only G4 variant that can be bootloader unlocked is H815 Eu version.

Hello,
As i understood you don't have Root access,let me tell you some things.
First,If you proceed rooting your mobile,you may be unable to boot your phone.
Second,you should be really careful with what you do.
If you want to proceed,Go to Settings→About Phone and tell me Device Model and what V(Version)of Marshmallow you are.
Greetings.

If you reinstall V30n you aren't going to have root access.
Why not going to a custom ROM?
There is a big variety.
Fulmics it use's LG UX5 (LG G5 software) and with Xceed kernel or Gabriel the phone will have a great performance.
Cyanogenmod aka Lineage OS(The one that I'm using right now)
Great performance,stock android experience and with Gamma kernel you are going to have +more performance and battery life.
But if you don't want to install any ROM then you can flash the pre-rooted V30N and flash Xceed or Gabriel kernel.
P.S:Would you like me to provide you a guide on how to Downgrade your device?
Greetings.
Was wondering if I flash a 5.1 rom with an untouched stock lollipop boot image onto my G4 what the outcome would be?
Is there any lollipop custom rom that this would work with? I have tried this on my locked lg g4 BTW and no dice

1)
The 5.1 Rom is the stockrom for the G4 Series came out in 2015.
You can flash a 5.1 and it will be run, why not? But MM (6.0) is more G4 friendly, works more fluid...
2)
The only thing you must looking for is the correkt Modell, H815-H818 and so on....
What Android is on the G4 now and what is locked on it? The Bootloader or have a Provider Lock..?

It's a H815T with a locked bootloader and I root all my devices
I was hoping that imperium or some other stockbased rom with notable differences would have released a 5.1 version, but I think they started on MM. I actually tried to flash cm12.1 then my stock boot image lol. Had to wipe and restore plain old Genisys rom
It's network unlocked and I use Twrpinfish by @steadfasterX
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/locked-twrpinfish-locked-g4-devices-t3573048
My wish is at least to have a more 'stock android' ui and ability to theme (cmte,etc)
If I could boot a cm12.1 rom it would awesome :highfive:
