Hello XDA! First I want to say I am not new to rooting but I'm still noob at it.
So here's my problem. I've rooted my LG G3 S D722 (I don't know if it is known as Beat) 3 months ago and I wanted to unroot it today for a software update. The only problem is that I haven't unrooted it correctly. Now I can't root it anymore (or I don't know how). Anyway I wanted to unroot it so I heard a Hard Reset will unroot it but it wasn't like that. After I hard reseted it, a game app which I really like it keeps giving me crashes and I don't know what to do.
I'm thinking that my last solution is to downgrade the software to the stock firmware but I don't how, again. I've searched 12 hours today and I couldn't find anything brilliant and 100% working without breaking the device.
Device : LG G3 S D722
OS: Android
OS version: 5.0.2
ROM: Lollipop
Kernel version: 3.4.0+
Bandbase version: MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.15-00044-M8926DAAAANAZM-1
Compiler Number: LRX22G.A1440040099
Software version: V20d-EUR-XX
The point is I want to downgrade it to stock firmware first. If I can't do that I want to root it again (if it is possible) and install a custom ROM, but I would prefer the stock unrooted firmware. Any help?
Thanks in advance!

I've done some reading, and it seems there are two relatively easy ways to root the Sprint LG G2 - IO Root and Towelroot. Just wondering which one is recommended. The most important thing to me is that I won't lose any data by rooting, and I guess the second most important thing is being able to unroot (since I believe LG will eventually be offering Lollipop 5.0 and I'll definitely want to upgrade to that, and then hopefully re-root )
Thanks!
UPDATE: Here's my Android info just in case that helps.
Version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20046

My wife bought a phone here in Mexico from TELCEL and I hate the stock ROM on it, I'm wanting something like CM or Paranoid Android etc on it.Is there a way to root a carrier locked phone from TELCEL? I can't seem to find any information as I don't know so much spanish to read tutorials about it. Even if I can't unlock it, just installing a new ROM on it would help.
Can anyone lead me in the right direction?

If you want to root the device you can follow this guide.I used PurpleDrake to root my device with firmware V10e for G3 (D855).(As long as you are still in kitkat 4.4.2 / V10a firmware you probably could use Towelroot too to root your device without using a PC).
As long as you root your device you can change the official rom with a custom one.In order to achive that you are going to need a custom recovery.You have to find the right one for your device.I am using TWRP on my device.
If something goes wrong or for some reason you want to restore your phone to official rom you can flash a stock firmware using this guide.I hope I helped you.

Hello everyone!
This is my first time on any forum . Now back to the issue. I am using LG G3 (f400l30c) Marshmallow 6.0 (official LG update). I want to safely root my lg now but i can find root only of lollipop or kitkat. I don't know if those same root designed for Android lollipop will work on marshmallow as well? Any help is appreciated!
P.S. I have never rooted by G3 before.

Is there any known good method for rooting an LG G3 F400K running 6.0 ?
Reason I ask is that I have tried a few, none seem to work? Updates to most of them were around 2 years ago?
If you are on v30n firmware is impossible to root, for moment, and you need to revert to an older version on firmware , if lg flash tool don't work, give a try to lg up
F400K30i
Thanks for the reply. I'm on F400K30i.
Do you know which versions can be rooted? (obviously not 30n)

Title is self explanatory, any of the tutos. that i find online won't help and KingRoot doesn't work on G3 on 6.0 stock

I'm facing the same issue! Have tried all the Root options, like king root, kingo Root, purple drake, one click root.
I really don't know what's happening with my device.
These are the software infos:
Android Version: 6.0
Security level date: 10-01-2016
Kernel version: 3.4.0
Build number: MRA58K
Software version: V30a-GLOBAL-SCA
Have you tried rolling back to a previous version and rooting that?
