[Q] Help with rooting phone - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an LG G3 on T-Mobile, running android 4.4.2 and my software version is D85110r. I downloaded and installed Stump Root and when I load the app it says "Device is already Rooted". Then I remember I had previously rooted the phone last summer when I got it. But I'm having issues with several apps not working because of root permission. So then I download and install SuperSU and when I run it, it gives me the message, "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it." It then says something about if you have android 4.3 you need to re-root your phone. How do I proceed? Do I need to un-root my phone and then re-root? Thanks for any help you can provide!

Anyone?

same here. I am not on 4.3 but still getting the same message. Fix?

Hello! I had no problems rooting my F400k with this root tool.. I also tried rooting with Stump but it failed many times.. I suggest format your phone then try this root tool. Look at number 5 of this post.
Attached is the root tool. Good luck

This thing does not work as of JANUARY 17. The phone does not go into recovery mod, but just restarts once you click run.bat file

You've flashed other root tools like Stump, etc.. right? It probably left some files behind after unrooting.. Factory reset and try that root tool again.. I've always used it and rooting was a breeze!:fingers-crossed::good: If you have updated to the latest firmware then maybe rooting isn't possible at the moment. Try downgrading to the previous version you had after you've factory resetted and used that root tool.. Good luck mate!

Root is Gone?

So all of sudden, my rooted S3 is not rooted anymore.
I wanted to use Titanium Backup and it says
"Sorry, I could not acquire root privileges. This application will *not* work! Pleasre verify that your ROM is rooted, and try again.
This attempt was made using the "/system/xbin/su" command."
and then I tried my other root applications such as Greenify, App Ops and they are all saying my phone isn't rooted anymore.
I don't understand, I never upgraded my phone after I rooted and I never flashed a different rom and kept the Touchwiz Rom.
I used this guide to root my phone originally:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771687
My phone is running 4.3 Android (Same Version I used when Rooted in the first place)
Baseband Version: T999UVUEMJC
Please let me know what to do
check if supersu is working properly.

It isn't.
The following message pops up:
"There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!
If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device!"

My suggestion would be to back everything up and re flash root66.

Would I lose all my data?
In terms of re flash root66, that means simply using Odin and re-rooting my phone like I do the first time right? Would it be the same instructions too?

I'm not sure if you are going to lose your data.. so that's why I said to back everything up, just in case.
And yes.. same method as before from that post.
Befoe you flash again. Try uninstalling then installing supersu again

I can't uninstall supersu as it gives me no option to do so. I can only uninstall all updates that were applied but not complete remove and then install it.
I had this happen on my Tmobile Galaxy S3.
I read somewhere else on XDA that you just had to install the latest SuperSU, in zip form, from recovery mode.
I havent posted enough here to be able to post a link, but you can find it on chainfires website.
Then reboot and it should work.

So I was a happy camper following the purpledrake rooting method for my LGG3 (D851) and then made the rookie mistake of upgrading to 10r. Now it seems my SuperSU doesnt work (no binaries found). Root Checker says Root access denied. Xposed Installer is not up to date as it doesn't have root permissions. How do I get out of this? Tried looking for downgrading from 10r, but couldnt find anything solid. Should I downgrade or wait to re-root 10r?

I've never used a toolkit on my HTC devices, so I can't speak to their effectiveness. Perhaps they need an update to work with Lollipop.
I recommend using TWRP recovery (just because it's the one I used and I know it worked for me. Can't speak to CWM or Philz)
Flash the SuperSU update zip found here: http://download.chainfire.eu/695/SuperSU/

[Q] cant update SU binary?

I have a ls980ZVE that was previously updated to ZVE through OTA. I don't know if it was rooted previously or not, so in order to root it i installed stump. but grind button was disabled and it says device is rooted, so i thought i might be rooted already so i installed supersu from playstore and it displays message "There is no SU binarry installed, and superSU can't install it.
now can anyone tell me what do i do? i just want a clean rooted device, but would not mind custom recovery if there would be no problems.
any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks
Doesn't sound rooted to me. Try towelroot.com. I've used it a lot and it has always worked for me. Su should work after that

If it were me, i would try downloading the lg flash tool and the back to stock ROM tot files and return it to the original stock and root the phone at that point. You can then install a custom ROM. Sounds like they are blocking root with the zve update. I use the cm 12 lollipop resurrection ROM and I love it
I use rr also, but from zve. I used stump root.
You have to use the "brute force" method with Stump root if you are on ZVE. Haven't done it in a while and don't remember where that option is in Stump root but it is there.

Maybe try a factory reset and then try to root again if you haven't tried that yet

you can try installing custom recovery (TWRP or any custom recovery you want) and flash the Super user and remove kinguser this way should work i guess

sir please help me rooting my device ive got lg g3 d855 android version 5.0 software version V20n-234-30. thanks
Please help me root my G3 too. I'd love to know how
this is a simple way root your device not sure if it will work but it works with marshmallow tho
1)you will download kinguser apk from playstore and try to root your phone try to root your phone if it failed you will download the windows version of iroot from here http://www.iroot.com/ (you are rooted here)
If you want to swap to supersu
2)you will need to install a custom recovery which will be simple will install this from google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager&hl=en thats TWRP and will select your device
3)https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip you will need to download this zip and reboot to custom recovery you can do it manually or by this apk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.petrus.tools.reboot
flashing a zip: will be by pressing install in recovery then you will search for the zip in the location you put it in. im not responsible for anything happens to your device.
