So i got my G3 a week ago. It comes with android 5.0 ( i have the international version ) however i can't seem to find any root that is compatible with android 5.0
Anyone knows a root method that is compatible with root on android 5.0?

Q15: How to root stock Lollipop?
You can't. You will have to revert to stock firmware, root the phone and flash some prerooted Lollipop ROM.

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:

me too. i tried many times & searched for it but couldn't find anything. i appreciate if developer are working on our device (LG G3 32gb "D855") running lollipop 5.0
i need to root ASAP
Someone tested to do this ->
4.4.2 Kitkat (rooted and with TWRP recovery)
Flash Lollipop rom via TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/stock-t2961073
Flash root (supersu.zip) via TWRP
Install flashify - flash Lollipop stock recovery - flash stock Lollipop bootloader.
Hey!
Going to make this as short and simple as possible.
So I was runinng stock LG G3 4.4.2, but about 1 week ago I recieved the 5.0 update to my phone. I was all glad and dandy until I got sick to my stomach with McAfee (unfreeze-able and non-removable) and games starting to lagg without device even getting hot...
So I decided to Root and run CM or some other more lightweight ROM, but to my greatest fear, 5.0 seems unrootable atm!? I am at a loss here.. I am in no way happy with the Lollipop update, I can't even see if my device is running ART or not, and the overall experience feels even more sluggish than before - Need a 'get out of jail' card over here ~
Sidenote; I've only ever owned Samsung Devices (S2 and S4) as main phones, so I feel a bit lost when it comes to how LG run things (no Odin is my primary issue, as well as limited support since the device is not all that popular).
TL;DR:
1. Is there a working Root for LG G3 International d855 (32gb, 3gb RAM)devices running stock 5.0?
2. If not 1: Is there a way to downgrade from 5.0 to KitKat again?
3. If 2: What's the best way to Root the device with, and what Kitkat version should I run?
1. No.
2. See FAQ in my signature for links for guide to downgrade (guide is listed as unroot in faq).
3. PurpleDrake should do.

I am currently following your 10 (6) linked guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
But I am already stuck on 1.. http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/
What firmware file do I pick? Using the 32Gb LG-D855 (international), and I picked it up along with a carrier contract from "Telia" (Swedens biggest carrier).

Yes, that is the guide.
You need firmware for D855. Latest Lollipop version is 20F.

Wait what? Exactly which file do i download, to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.4 "KitKat" again?
Currently downloading this file; "D855 TOTs/ -> LGD855AT-V10e-EUR-32G.zip" Is that the wrong file?

Download kdz file.
If you want to downgrade then some v10 version. V10N is the latest.

Interesting
I think you can get rooted device using Phil's recovery. Works perfect on 4.4.2, I shure it will be no problem with 4.4.4.

try to use chainfire's CF Root one for 4.4.2 on 4.4.4, it should work just fine since there's not much differences between 4.4.2 and 4.4.4
we will have problem rooting if we get 5.0 as there's none at the moment....
Any success in rooting n5100 official 4.4.4 rom?
Couldn't you just flash a custom recovery through Odin and then flash Super SU in recovery?
I need confirmed step by step solution for 4.4.4. Don't want to brick my n5100.
