Okay, so I have the Sprint LG G2 and I currently have the 4.4.2 update with LS980ZVE and everything I have tried to root my phone has failed. Towel-root says my phone isn't supported, stump-root says my phone is already rooted but its not which is confirmed by root-checker. I have tried iOroot and that failed. Another program failed because of my ADB bull**** and I don't even know how to get it to work on my computer. Could really use some help whether it be downgrading( tried to do by myself with LG Flash tool which also failed ) so anything that could point me in the right direction or tutorials would be great.

Ok so after you use stump root did you restart phone and install SU from the store? This is something that has to be done for you to gain root access.
edit: Use these steps here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56584296&postcount=153, this is what I did and it worked flawlessly.
☝ What he said. Worked for me.
I'm rather new to the whole android thing and screwed my phone more than I could hope. When the new firmware version came out I thought I needed to unroot to install it. (I wanted it for the WiFi fixes). After installing it I went to reroot and of course the one click root doesn't work, so after trying to find a new method I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60913483&postcount=23 failing to realize it's for D855. My device is a D852 and is stuck in fastboot now. Attempts to continue give error "Unable to find suitable device tree for device (194/0x00010001/121/0)". Just wondering if there's a way to fix this without losing everything or a way to recover my files before resetting. I don't really care about the root at this point.
Hi everyone. Happy New Year.
Today morning, I told my wife she can't unlock my phone, and so she tries unlocking the pattern many times, and then all of sudden the phone auto factory reset.
I have a unrooted verizon VS98535B LG G3 phone.
I managed to recover the sd card files through my pc, but i can't recover the one in the droid phone. Tried many software and they can't seem to detect the phone. I think it must be because there isn't a drive letter in the PC for it to read.
So, i have a couple of questions before i root.
1. What software should i use to root once to recover files and then unroot it?
2. The reason i would want it unroot is so that i could receive the OTA updates later on.
3. I would also want to sell my phone in the future.
4. What recover software works best for internal memory too?
Thanks!

I tried stump & towelroot, it did not work for me. Am going to try ioroot next. Cross finger.
It seems that ioroot cannot find matching phone model.
and when it goes into the stock recovery mode, there's a sleeping android with exclamation mark saying no command.
Tried LG One Click Root, and it got stuck at 90% with my phone showing 0%. Sigh.

any ideas ?
I have an HTC desire 816 (710c) Virgin Mobile. I have tried the following: King Root- APK and PC. KingoRoot- APK and PC, Framaroot APK, iRoot APK and PC, Towelroot APK, Z4Root APK, RootMaster APK, One click root APK and PC, Baidu Root APK, And none have gained full root permision. I have had Temp roots with both King Root and KingoRoot, but it seems to only last minutes and then my phone reboots on its own and its back to no root. I have my bootloader unlocked which I thought was supposed to prevent this sort of thing? Im running 5.0.2 stock. I'm fairly versed on this subject so this is becoming very frustrating for me, ive been trying for over a week now. I know i could flash a rooted rom but i have tried literally at least 12 different ones for every variation of my phone possible, from CM 11 up to CM13.. and when I go to flash it says (roughly) "this file is for A5, A5DUG, A5.., This phone is A5dug"......How is that possible? I dont know if this is relevant or not but when im in recovery mode up top it says "A5chl" in the specs area... but thats not what it seems to think it is? I have managed to successfully flash once but it was for a dual sim variant of the 816, needless to say it was jacked up and i had to go back to stock. I must be missing something.. Anyways, im rambling on now. Im desperate, PLZ help me. I have run out of ideas and losing hope quickly.
Cheers,
Mikey

Truly, no offense meant but you're evidently not that well versed because you didn't need to flash any of those exploits to obtain root on the 816 a5_chl VM version because I didn't do any of that and I have root on this same device using V_ Superuser's XDA tutorial thread.
Unlock bootloader through HTCdev then flash current TWRP version for the A5 using ADB/fastboot then download the SuperSU flashable zip file from it's website to the root of your internal SD card then install/flash the zip file using the newly installed TWRP custom recovery. Wipe cache and Dalvik cache then reboot system and you're device is rooted.
After this you can S off with the Sunshine app (my preference) or flash the lollipop WP_ mod.no write permission mod to be able to use root apps like Link2SD and you're done again.
Edit: I've also flashed all of these same custom roms with little issue so something else must be going on there as well. I would get your stock recovery reinstalled ( there are several links to it here in XDA ) ,relock your bootloader and flash/run executable of the stock RUU for the VM A5 found on HTC's download page then start over because I assume you don't have a backup to the stock firmware saved somewhere ?

My sister has pretty uncommon G4s variant known as H736. It comes preinstalled with Marshmallow.
She asked me to root it, so she could move apps to SD card. I never rooted any LG, but I tried.
First, I checked for bootloader unlock on LG website. If it would give me fastboot code, that would be 5 minutes of work. But it's unsupported... So I need to work with locked bootloader.
Second, I looked around XDA and found root method for H735 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4s-world-root-lg-devices-t3231759). Because it's almost identical with H736, I tried it. But it didn't work - I did read that it's only compatible with Android 5.1.1 and is broken after upgrade to 6. But H736 comes with 6 preinstalled so... I'm just afraid of installing software from one phone onto another.
Third thing I tried - low effort root (https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4...t-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765). After reflashing rooted system, phone was stuck on LG logo and red LED turned on. Nothing happened in few hours, so I reflashed original system.
I also tried flashing Magisk-patched boot, but it ended the same way.
So is there any way to root this phone? Maybe some exploit, or some way to workaround my issues with low effort root? I don't want to mess with King/Kingo thingies, cause it's known to steal things like IMEI...
