I updated to lollipop and the root disappeared.
Is there any method that works? or i must downgrade to kitkat?

You can get root back by flashing the SU beta zip which is found here....

You need to flash it in recovery.
Good luck
I had already replied to you in the ROM thread where you posted the exact same question, did you not see that.?

new to note forum...!!!

Please please forgive me if I'm reposting. I have an s3 that's rooted up and running great so not a novice here. Although my brother finally gave me his T-Mobile note 2- 4.3 w/knox to play with. However his request was to root and unlock it. I've been through the threads over here and just need a link to the most successful method to achieve this. I've tried a couple of rooting methods already (cf auto and Mr Robinson) but can't get root to stick or get recovery. I guess can I factory reset his phone and flash a 412 rom over it and root and unlock that way?? And I believe his 4.3 update was ota. I would appreciate any help here thanks.

I had some trouble getting root & recovery to stick on my stock 4.3 Note 2. I think the method that worked best for me was installing TWRP recovery using Odin. The official T-Mobile Note 2 TWRP thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1966105
There is a download link towards the bottom of the 1st post that redirects to the TWRP homepage but here is the direct link to the TWRP page for the T-Mobile Note 2:
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/123
The Odin Method is the last on in the list, download the TAR file & flash with Odin
Once you have recovery, you can flash the latest Chainfire (1.99) to root your ROM or just flash a custom ROM
This may help you to get root/recovery but beware, I have been randomly losing my root access even on custom rooted ROMs. I just created a new thread yesterday to hopefully track & resolve the issue but I have a feeling it is related to the 4.3 bootloader which currently can't be rolled back or fixed in the T-Mobile Note 2. My thread for losing root is in the link below, please check it out and see if you are experiencing the same issue:

[Q] Lollipop... Update without backups?

Hi everyone.
I have the D855 model of G3 with 4.4.2 (KitKat) stock version installed without root. Yesterday, I receive the notification of update to lollipop but I haven't done it yet.
I pretend to root the lollipop version (or at least, wait for a method to root, because there is no way yet, right?). What's the best procedure to do it?
a. Update to lollipop and wait a method to root it?
b. Backup my actual version before update so, in case of not exist a root method to lollipop, I can restore KitKat, root it and them install a root version of Lollipop (if so, how I can make this backup since I don't have root?) ?
c. Root now, make a backup and them remove root to update by OTA or install a rooted version of lollipop?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] D851 - Newbie Questions on TWRP and Lollipop.

Newbie to rooting.
I'm gonna be exact with what I have.
Stock 4.4.2 (Lollipop available but I don't wanna get stuck in TWRP with an OTA)
TWRP Installed
Rooted G3.
NO, I REPEAT NO CUSTOM ROMS OR FRAMEWORKS.
I'm afraid T Mobile will force me the Lollipop update someday, and if it does, I will always boot into TWRP because TWRP doesn't work with OTA updates.
So... Here is what I want to do... In the easiest way possible.
I want to get TWRP off my phone, unroot my phone, so I can install Official 5.0
OR.... Is there a flashable OFFICIAL Lollipop G3 Zip I can flash using TWRP?
Please be patient with me, I may very well have future questions on this thread. Thanks a lot guys.

Download the kdz and do a clean flash. After that do a factory reset then root and install twrp. You can block lg updates with titanium backup
