[Q] LG G3 (europe) error when rooting with Purpledrake - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I'm attempting to root my LG G3 model D855 with the PurpleDrake rooting tool, but every time I try to do it the tool comes up with the following error.
Any idea where I'm going wrong and how can I fix it.
I'm running MacOSX.

Then thats your problem
Theres no current explots for Lollipop
Downgrade back to KitKat and you can root it and install bumped Lollipop if you wish

Ahh ok. Many thanks. I bought the phone with 5.0 already installed. I think I might just wait for when 5.0 root becomes available.

Pretty sure you can downgrade it if you can find the right KDZ
1) What does it say under software version?
2) Is it carrier branded?
3) What part of Europe are you from? I might be able to find the KDZ for you

Software version V20f-EUR-XX
and I believe it's not carrier branded.

I wouldnt suggest you do that considering your variant is branded and not just simply D855

How did you downgraded the device? Any recommended guide?
I think we will just have to wait for the official SEA bootloader unlock, I'm in the same situation as you. GODDAMMIT.

Hi mate,
There is no KDZ available for V10o.
But there are V10f and V10n for H812 Telus.

If OTA update didn't offer you to install V10o - it means that the version doesn't exist for Telus.
Why do you want that specific version? (I really believe it doesn't exist)

its your G4 bootloader unlockable.? not all are.. with locked bootloader you cant on MM.. but you can root it if you are in LP... but you also need to make sure you can downgrade to LP as some have antirollback that will brick if downgrade..

20-i its tmobile right if yes then read the reply and click the link.
You should wait for the OTA for 20-0 because once rooted OTA will cause bootloops. But if you dont wanna upgrade then follow below link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...ck-guide-h811-20-o-bootloader-unlock-t3421589
This is very strange because I have H815, not 811
I unlock bootloader via official Lg page
Install TWRP also no problem
But when I wanna install coustom room, phone bootpool and I must use LGBridge to back v20i

on G2 all variants have different names.. you cant mistake... but i remember someone said 20i so i assumed he meant for h811. and they said i was misleading information.. that it was for H815.. i then hover mouse over link and in fact had 20i H815... so am i right.. all variants in G4 are different names letters..

LG Wing 5g (LM-F100TMW) Dual Sim Variant

Hi! I need some info on how will i be able to find the correct kmz or firmware for this variant. As what the title says, it is a LM-F100TMW with Android version 11.
When i try to check via IMEI on LGROM, it says that i am using a LM-F100EMW variant from TAIWAN or TWN. I already downloaded the recommended firmware from that website but I'm still not sure if it is the right one.
Just needed to make sure, you know? Haha! Thanks!

If it's not the correct firmware,LGUP will give you an error saying you can't swap firmware from region_x to region_z as an example.
