Whoo, finally got it installed! I thought it was a problem with my USB drivers, but ultimately it was that my ADB was too old!

Hello all, well I'm in the process of trying to root this thing after the march 2nd update. However, when I plug it into the computer via usb Windows7 can't install the device drivers. I have usb debugging enabled but it still won't connect.
Anyone know how to fix this issue or has anyone had this problem also and how did you fix it?
Also, do you guys know how to root this thing? Every guide that I find and they say to download so and so package my anti-virus keeps telling me that the package contains a trojan so i'm not sure if I want to trust it lol

Sorry, Can one of the forum moderators delete this? I just discovered that the NEW update in june prevents you from using the march 2nd update root guide. soooo this is basically useless
Thread closed.
I was following this guide to root my LG G3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/general/how-to-root-kvt49l-d85110r-install-twrp-t3004158
and when running purpledrake_windows.bat from PurpleDrake-Lite, my phone is never detected and stays at the homescreen unchanged. I have tried about 10 times so far.
Some notes on my situation:
* Developer mode has been enabled, and Android USB debugging is enabled when connected.
* Unknown sources is checked and Verify apps is unchecked.
* I uninstalled newer LG drivers to reinstall the drivers provided by the guide.
* All software used was downloaded from the guide.
* Phone is Android 4.4.2 and build is KVT49L.D85110r.
Can anyone tell me what I can do to get it to detect my phone?

If I were you I would try the new One click root method that works for most LG phones. It is actually easier to use and better success rate with the newer firmwares for our G3 including Lollipop. Works flawlessly for me every-time. If I am not mistaken Purple Drake only supports up to 10m.
Anyways here is the link for the One click root method, I can confirm it worked on 10c,10m,10r, and 20b

Thanks for the suggestion vel0city, but for some weird reason it was detected once I put the protective case back on the phone, which I believe must be purely coincidental. The rooting went smoothly after that.

Glad you got it working!
My phone's stuck on the firmware from April 1st (specifically LRX21V.WW-ASUS-Z00A-2.13.40.13_20150401_8390_user044030427_201501601090010000500001). I have the TW 4GB/32GB/1.8GHz version of the phone and I have not ever unlocked the bootloader or rooted.
I can check for a OTA but it doesn't come up with anything. I was told to download the firmware from ASUS's support site and flash it from there. I downloaded the WW zip (my phone is currently running the WW version) and made sure it was *-user.zip and put it in the Internal Storage but my phone doesn't detect it. I've rebooted, recopied it, tried with a different version of firmware (still newer than my version) and no matter what I do I don't get the notification to update. I've also since factory reset my phone, which hasn't helped.
ASUS told me to try downloading the WW_2.14.40.19 zip and trying to update with that, but I don't get the notification to update either. My friend who also has the same model as me has exactly the same problem and we both have Android OS swallowing up ~60% of the battery per charge by using up the CPU, which is very annoying.
I have exactly the same problem. I can't update my phone.
The systemupdate.apk also crashes at start.

I am having this issue as well. Anyone figure out how to fix it?
I think I fixed it.
First I flashed a pre-rooted ROM (Like in this tutorial: asus-zenfone.com/2015/04/asus-zenfone-2-pre-root-systemimg.html)
After that, my phone detected the update files.
I hope this will help
I have same problem
That most likely indicates that you have CN device with WW rom slapped on top of it. The only way for OTA is unlocked bootloader and TWRP install, or ADB sideload full update each time new firmware released. If you still can return the device - do it.
Try:
1. Copy the downloaded firmware file to MicroSD
2. Rename it to MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
3. Go to recovery mode
And the file should be detected and the update process should start immediately.
Edit: Okay, looks like your guys got it fixed.
Edit2: And oh no, this was actually a one year old thread :-|
Thanks dude!

Hi all. I'm posting here because after countless (2) hours of searching online I haven't been able to find a proper solution for a problem. I'm hoping that you all can help me with this one.
I've been using the LG g3 for the past year and everything has been great. But since my screen got smashed I've had to replace it with a newer one. I got this last Thursday.
I've been sticking with stock because I'm quite fond of the stock marshmallow. But since I'm a tinkerer I can't help myself. So after I updated (yesterday) I was going to attempt to root and flash a shiny new rom. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get that far, as my phone can no longer be recognized by my computer.
I will put it in, and it will pop up with "USB Device not recognized". Under device managers it merely shows up as "unknown usb device". So I uninstalled my LG drivers (which are normally installed once you plug in the phone, but I digress. It did all of this before the 6.0 update) and it will attempt to install usb drivers but fail almost immediately and say it experienced an "unknown error", very helpfully reminding me to try and unplug/plug the device or factory reset.
Factory reset is very difficult for me right now as I have just finally gotten the phone tweaked to my liking. I really don't want to have to re-download everything. I have tried almost every workarounds I could find on the Internet but I keep running in circles. I've downloaded several different drivers for my phone and none of them work. I'm really at a loss.
I'm assuming that it must be the marshmallow update, as I haven't rooted or installed cfw as of yet. And I can plug someone else's phone in and it will install the drivers in a heartbeat. I can charge my phone but it won't give me options for MTP/PTP/Charge mode at all.
Anyways that's about all I can ask at the moment. I just hope someone here has experienced this and knows what to do.
Okay, I have now tried factory resetting my phone and it still won't work. It's the 6.0 update that's causing this. I'm at a loss, either I have to wait for google to hopefully patch this or I have to take back my new phone and exchange it for a new one.
You should be aware that the correct model number for a Canadian G3 from Koodo is D852, not D820 as you mentioned.
Before taking back your phone, try to see if your phone is recognized with a different USB cable (OEM one preferred), plugged in a different USB port of your computer, or, if possible on a friend's Windows 10 or Windows 8 computer, just in case different drivers might recognize your phone.
Your suspicion (that the OTA update to MM caused this) is not well supported by the reality: the OTA update was quite uneventful for thousands of other Canadian G3 phones; we should have heard more complaints if the OTA update were botched by Koodo or Telus.
Hi All
Bought a Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) from lightinthebox...came this week and it is full of either bloatware or malware as I can't use the phone with it popping up randomly with adverts and installing apps. I thought it would be pretty straightforward to update to another ROM. It is running Android 5.0
I've had nothing but problems with every step and method I have used. I've downloaded the stock rom from Asus (Android 6) and tried to install from SD card in Recovery I got 'only android 5.0(newer than 20160504 version) or android 6.1 (older version) can upgrade to this version'
I've tried over ADB and even then had issues with drivers (running windows 10). I've also tried the Asus Flash Tool but that didnt work.
Please please before I literally pop this phone in the bin, can someone provide a link to a working stock ROM that I can just install from the SD or whatever method that is known to work.....too many sites have shown various methods all of which haven't worked for me.

Do you have a working phone now ?
You can if you have above , disable WiFi , click app drawer, click on junk app ,and disable junk and it will uninstall it.
Firmware upgrade...
Put Asus firmware on SD ...WW-4.20 bla bla etc , .184 is a good one of LP ..
Make sure it ends in WW-4-20bla bla .184 (user.zip )and reboot phone
You also can change name of firmware to MOFD_SDUPATE , Put in adb fasboot folder and adb sideload..command is.....
adb sideload MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
Did you try a factory reset in recovery mode rather than a factory reset from the rom?
