For rooting Kitkat, use this method instead:

The easiest method of installing TWRP is by using TWRP Manager...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager

I can overwrite the recovery (I have CWR) with TWRP Manager? No problem?
The software showme a windows with this "Something is wrong: FLashing recovery was unsucessfull. Either you already have this recovery installed or another has occurred. Would you like to attempt rebooting to recovery now?... It give me 2 options CANCEL and OK.

If you already have CWM (ClockworkMod recovery) installed, then installing TWRP after will just overwrite it. Normally that error pops up if you already have TWRP installed. Select OK, and let it reboot into recovery. Then post back w/ the results. Also make sure to select D851 as the phone model, and 2.8.7.0 as the version of TWRP to install.

SOLVED. TWRP and Root access. Thank you redduc900. :victory:

marshmallow twrp and root help

just installed 6.0 on my lg g3 d855 32gb
trying to root and install a custom recovery but not able to. used the method with kingroot then installing supersu from twrp but then when booted supersu keeps asking to update binary and then freezes. am using the v30b-global-com version
any straight forward way to do it? without kingroot
i dunno if that's weird, but i can't even enter the fastboot to install the recovery using fastboot command

1) Fastboot doesnt work on LG G3 because it bootloader isnt natively unlocked
2) Please do not install TWRP on your current firmware. You will brick your phone
If you need TWRP you must downgrade to KitKat before you can install it.

I did install twrp and it booted normally. Using kingroot and a method i found on the forum. But the problem was with supersu that it kept asking to update binary which never happened. Anyways thanks for the reply. Phone not with me anymore

LG G3 Need to uninstall TWRP

I need to uninstall TWRP so I can install the newest update for my LG G3 as TWRP is causing an error doing update.
I tried to use TWRP manager but I dont see any way to use to uninstall TWRP.
I looked at using flashily but that dont seem to work either.
I dont want to do anything drastic to just remove TWRP let the phone get updated and then reinstall TWRP.

You can't remove TWRP as you install it. In their website it is said "Simply install whatever recovery that you want and that will overwrite or replace TWRP".
Doing kdz would remove TWRP. But I don't know whether that is helpful in your case.

All you need to do is flash stock recovery via dd or via flashify.
If you cant obtain it anywhere from forum here, then extract it from kdz.
If you dont know how, I might have time to do it for you if you give me your G3 model version.

My first backup on my phone using flashify was after I already installed TWRP and I made a backup of that.
This phone has been getting its updates through FreedomPop stock updates as I just got phone last month.
If you can post or link my the file needed to get back to stock that be great.
The LG G3 model version is LGLS990 Hardware revision number is 1.0 TIA!

Flash stock kdz...if you are on lolipop flash it with lg flash tool...you can't install update whatever you install stock recovery because you root your phone....so you have to do a cse flash or install kdz version totally different from your version.

Where Can I get the 6.0 stock ROM and just use TWRP to install it as opposed to removing TWRP letting system update itself and then having to reinstall TWRP.

I can't seem to find stock 6.0 ROM for Sprint version but here is a very stable port as reported by it's users:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-lge-d855-android-marshmallow-ported-t3285025
You can flash it in TWRP, but please make a backup of your current ROM if this one proves to be buggy.
As for the official stock ROM provided by Sprint in form of kdz or tot, idk if it exists, but you could check here:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Replace 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' with your IMEI.
It's ok to put your IMEI, thats LG official download server.

So I found the Update.zip file that was trying to be installed to update my LG G3 and wondering why I cant install the zip directly using TWRP as I keep getting error message from TWRP and when phone reboots method and when I try to install Update directly it using TWRP I get same error message
The error code is 7 which happen during rebooting phone when attempting to install the Update.zip that way and now that I found the Update.zip file and try to flash it I get same error trying to install file that way.

Lg G3 d855 rooting without kingroot

Hello, I wanted to ask if there is an option to root the device (marshmallow rom 6.0) without using "Kingroot".
Sorry for asking again in the forum (someone already asked that and didnt get an answer)
Thanks in advance.

Yes.
Downgrade to 10A ( Kitkat ) using LG UP.
Root with Stump Root
Flash TWRP with your app of choice ( DD command will also do )
Flash one of the custom roms / @autoprime 's stock 6.0 .zip

Thanks alot, I did what u said and now i have a rooted device with lollipop version.
I wanted to ask 2 more questions:
1. now, if i upgrade to marshmallow the root will "dissapear"?
2. I have problem to flash Twrp recovery. I tried autorec, flashify, and also official TWRP.

OK I solved this issue

LG G3 D852 (Rogers) Lollipop 5.0.1 Quesiton about TWRP flashing

So I was able to successfully root Lollipop using the one click tool. Now I am confused how to get TWRP in Lollipop. The autorec tool is dead and doesn't work anymore even with APKs found online. How do I flash TWRP? I tried using Flashify and the latest D852 3.0.2 TWRP image and it ended up bricking my recovery and forcing me to go back to KitKat firmware to fix it. What should I do? I want to install Fulmics MM ROM but I need TWRP on Lollipop firmware first.
Please help.

You can fin a working autorec in the download section:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/canadian-d852-stock-bumped-rooted-rom-t3056843
It says mm on the filename but worked with lolipop... at least for me.

Hello,
I have a similar situation. I bricked my recovery and now I'm stuck with Lollipop and no custom recovery.
How did you go down to KitKat? Which file did you use?
I am with Fido and need all the help I could get to be able to restore my phone.
Thank you,
