You can't root with LP (for now) and personally, i don't like the looks of LP that's why i want to root and try xmod.

Just make sure its for the 16gb variant and its from the same region
Usually if you flash firmwares from other regions theres always a ton of problems related to network signal, battery etc etc

So bricking is almost impossible? if that's only the problem when flashing, then that's good news!

You can try the CloudG3 rom, it's a V20F (Lollipop) and it's rooted.

I updated to Lollipop using LG PC Suite and ran it Lollipop for a few days..
The most annoying issues for me were notification access.. I couldn't access the notifications with double tapping on them.. Always had to single tap and swipe.
The battery somehow drains a whole lot more when asleep.. I lost 10% overnight.. horrible!!!
I reverted to my last backup F400k10u by flashing the backup through TWRP. Back on KK and loving it !!! Lollipop sucks! :good:

i also did the same.. i updated thru PC Suite and yes, I'm not satisfied with LP. As if LG did rushed things just to boast that they're the "first" to release LP (except for Nexus phones though). I'm encountering force closes and lots of lag. I don't even see the difference between KK and LP, oh there's one thing... it became worst.. hahaha!
Good thing you're back on KK. I'm much more pleased with KK since i can do most of things i want i even messed my phone and did a factory reset. (forgot to backup my data LOL )

[Q] How can we root LolliPop on LG G3?

Hi everybody.
How can we root Lollipop on G3 and install something like Xposed or something like that?
Thanks you.

1.Xposed woun’t work for now on L maybe later...
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/rovo89-speaks-up-regarding-art-and-android-l-support/
2.you can try the new L here this after bump you device (Costum rom with old bootloder that can enable you to downgreat back to 4.4.2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-lollipop-rooted-rom-skin1980-t2936022
I still don't konw for sure if root & bump works on L rom stock and if we can downgreat back to 4.4.2 safely for bump & root with out brick ,
some of them says yes with TOT/KMZ some syas otherwise ...
If we can now ? maybe LG will block it in other updates soon...we don't and can't know until it arrive !
Xposed wont work on lollipop with an major update. As for root check the flashable lollipop update
Well considering that Xposed needs Dalvik and Lollipop is ART only... I don't think that's going to happen. Most definitely do not take an OTA to Lollipop as there is some big changes in security that may make it harder to root and or bump.

Xposed doesn't work on android 5.0 and it might never work, it is incompatible with ART.
If you are on a 5.0 build because you flashed the KDZ then you are out of luck, there is no way to root it (at least not yet).

Also, although @autoprime has confirmed the release of Android L for the D855 does not implement anti-rollback, this does not mean that other variants will not implement something to keep us from going back to previous software versions, then you may be stuck with Android L but no root or TWRP permanently

So For now we can ,but with other new Ver. of L-5.0 we don't know
If you want root, DO NOT update to the stock 5.0.
Simple as that. No one knows how hard it will be to root, when it will be rooted, or even if it will ever be rooted. Wait for the devs to deliver a version that support root.

doesn't exist yet. don't use the lollipop one but I'm sure you already know that. I got around it by downgrading to 20J with a Koodo KDZ that I saved and rooting then using lollipop autorec, then flashing TWRP 3.0.0-0 via image flash in TWRP recovery.

well, waiting isn´t as good as contributing. If you provide some files and testing autorec might be just around the corner
If I come up with anything worth of sharing, I most certainly will. I'm always tinkering and trying to figure stuff out on my own

I ment, I will do the Autorec for d852, doing some other projects now but it will come
I will most certainly test it out for you if need be. Dont mind helping out wherever I can.
That´s good to hear. Mostly I tend to send out to people who are vicious to unbricking, wouldn´t be nice doing it otherwise. Mostly it´s secure but..better safe than sorry
[email protected] is my email address if you want me to test anything for you.

Downgrade H815 (Taiwan Version) from MM TO LP?

Well, I thought buying this phone would end my terrible relationship with ATT's Note 4 for good... Hell it's even an H815 for christ sakes....
But it seems like it can't be rooted on MM due its bootloader being locked :/
Yes, I did try using the official unlock tool but, as some of you know it doesn't work for the Taiwan version (Just my luck).
However, I looked around and saw that the Lollipop version can have root/twrp installed WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader.
In conclusion, my question is............. will I be able to downgrade from MM to Lollipop?

From what I know the H815 model can be unlocked. But I think it's only the International one. There's an unofficial unlock in the works, just look around on the forums, haven't been that interested 'cause I'm rocking an International model

You have to downgrade to LP if you want root.
