Hi all,
I have rooted Lollipop on my LG G3 (D855). Previously I used xposed framework and had Lollipop style navigation buttons installed. Now I have actually got Lollipop I find that the buttons are back to the horrible old LG G3 ones and I cannot used xposed to substitute them! Is there another way to replace the LG buttons on rooted stock Lollipop?
Thanks
Sean

They are rolling out the update, depending on your country you should have it at this point.
Both of those responses are forgetting he has root, he can't OTA. Only way you can update it your Lollipop is already rooted is by downloading the 20H KDZ and flashing it via a normal upgrade with LG Flash Tool 2014

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.
Hi guys I have tried all the forum but could not find anything on how to root lg lollipop g3 v20f have solutions
The answer is the same for every thread on this same subject. You cannot root LG g3 with stock lollipop.
You must revert to kit Kat (via kdz or tot methods), root, then install a rooted lollipop rom.

I was going to ask this very same question. Are there any good guides on how to do this? I upgraded mine to stock Lolipop and it's not that great, but the custom rooted ROMs like Resurection Remix look quite good.
Phone just runs slow, too many stock apps....
I have a LG G3 D855 (32gb ver) that i have just rooted and flashed resurrection remix rom. The pain of losing default lg g3 features like knock code, split window, camera app, etc is proving more thab i can handle. I've looked aroubd and it seems xposed is the way to enjoy best of both worlds. Can any1 direct me as to how i can do thia on my newly rommed n rooted g3?
I was on stock lollipop until yesterday when i downgraded to kitkat use using kdz method and then rooting via purple drake and twrp and then supersu followed by the rom itself. What do i have to do starring from my custom rom to get xposed? Pls n tq in advance
Ideally speaking id to be want cyanogen12 (i prefer the cyanogen12 ui over the stock g3, its just much more mature n smooth), but have the default g3 bloatware especially Camera n maybe LG Health as well as Knock Code, and then have xposed on top of that so that i can use the g3 tweaksbox
If you have KK installed on your phone no need to go through anything hard. Just download xposed framework on your rooted phone and install it. and then install xposed through the app.
If you have lolipop on your phone:

First of all, I am new to rooting. I just want to get that out of the way -- I am still learning the ropes.
Anyway, I have VS985 (Verizon) LG G3 and it is running Stock Lollipop 5.0.1. I recently rooted the device.
I am interested in installing TWRP, because I would like to try some custom ROMs (CyanogenMod in particular). However, I have not been able to install TWRP on my device. Also, I have not been able to find a working tutorial for my particular LG G3.
A short tutorial that will help me install TWRP / CyanogenMod on my G3 would be much appreciated.

How to root and install android 5.0 lollipop on Lg g3 (all variants)
Hey guys,
My LG G3 D855 (32GB, international version) is still on KitKat, rooted, no custom recovery, with Xposed and some xposed modules like G3 Tweaksbox installed.
It's been working very well so I really didn't see any reason to upgrade to the buggy Lollipop release and then I stopped following all the latest developments on these forums. Now Marshmallow is rolling out it seems like a more compelling reason to upgrade:fingers-crossed:
My questions are
Is there a stable official Marshmallow release for the LG G3? From what I read there was only a partial release for Poland but not the rest of the world
If so is there a reliable root method for it (essential)
Also is it possible to install Xposed and G3 Tweaksbox (not so essential but pretty important, mainly to get rid of the annoying "battery full" notification that would ping and light up my phone all night before I installed G3 tweaksbox (I heard the G4 and G5 have the same issue, can't believe they haven't addressed it - everyone leaves their phone on to charge overnight)
Thanks for any help and advice
Official MM has been released for most G3 models. Best way is to download the official KDZ, extract system and flash it using TWRP and then flash Super su. Will be better to upgrade to LP modem ... Not sure if KK modem works with MM. Also, remember to bump the MM boot using sharpening mod script and set SELinux. Simpler to download a boot image that has been so modified.
XPosed and Tweaksbox works on MM. Remember to use Tweaksbox for G4 as the Tweaksbox for G3 does not work on MM.
