Hello everybody!
I have a problem concerning the completion of the root process on my device LG G3 D855P - Rom version V10o.
After upgrading to the V10o version, the root was removed and since then I try to trouble reactive it.
I tried to make the root through various APK's such as: Framarrot, Towerlroot ... I also tried using ".exe" via PC, such as: Ioroot, PurpleDrake, UnlockRoot, among others.
I was not happy in any process so far. I wish someone could help me regarding the realization of root on my device.
Thanks in advance !!
Thanks to some idiot, team codefire left g3 behind for good.
There will be no more root for g3 unless someone else does it.
Only way to get root back is going back to stock rom reported working with root and dont upgrade if you wanna keep root

PurpleDrake is working with v10o.
If you have properly installed LG drivers and USB debugging is enabled, it's good to go.
Got it!
Guys, it worked.
I made this ... I changed the MTP option for PTP then open a window PurpleDrake, it failed to carry out the root, she kept open and open another window of PurpleDrake, yes this worked.
Installed SuperSU and ta all right.
Thanks guys.
Hello everyone
I have just received a replacement LG G3 D855 after cracking the screen on my original. I used SuperSU to root my device to uninstall a load of bloatware system apps. I then tried to unroot my phone because a) Sky Go doesn't work on rooted devices and b) I wanted to update to Lollipop officially as I had done on my old device. I am also unable to reroot with SuperSU as it cannot install the binaries required.
Is anyone able to provide me with assistance in either properly unrooting, or rerooting and then installing Lollipop by other means and hiding root from Sky Go? I have searched other threads but I have no knowledge about recovery modes or flashing. I am on Three in the UK. Thanks

Thanks guys, I'll give it a go
Thank you very much that was incredibly simple - installed lollipop through the PC suite, keeping my apps without reinstalling bloatware, great!
I just got my G4 Unlocked international H815 model. It's running 5.1 software on ATT. It keeps bugging me trying to OTA software update. Not sure what it's trying to update to exactly, because the only way to see more info is to hit continue with update and there's no turning back from there.
I love this phone unlocked! it didn't have any bloatware I usually root to delete when I get my phone from the carrier. It's got stuff like Wifi hotspot stock and the FM radio and charges over QI instead of Powercrap ... etc.
My question is
if it's already got most of the stuff I root to access, do I let the OTA update happen and risk not being able to root?
not sure what all I'd gain.
I'm wary about rooting because my last phone was the LG G3 and I rooted it and despite me disabling all update processes, it updated itself one day on my way to work and got screwed up so bad I had to force a downgrade and put a rom on it and after a couple days of holding a 600$ paperweight, I finally got it up and running on a rom... still had some bugs but it worked.
I REALLY want to avoid that nightmare with this 3 day old phone.
opinions welcome!
Thanks
Are you saying it's already rooted? If it is, the OTA won't work anyway. You have to unroot and flash the update using LG bridge. but then you can just root it again using the same method. The update doesn't block root. Lots of us have done it. Read the rooting threads.
G4 TweaksBox. One reason to root. ^_^
Adaway, no more adverts in apps. another (big for me) reason to root.
What version are you on now? It's probably only the stagefright fix.
Root...flash TWRP...flash cyanogen 12.1
Install xposed framework and get the YouTube adaway module. That's deffo a reason to ROOT.

You need an unlocked bootloader to flash TWRP / CM.
I'm running stock v10d + root. Works awesomely.

Yes mine's unlocked, NOT rooted. apparently the update it was trying to do automatically wasn't a big update because it decided it had waited long enough and did it on its own, rebooted and its still at
5.1
I'm still trying to wrap my head around all the terminology and methods of rooting droids- I came from the dark side- I've jailbroken every iphone since the first one they ever produced. My G3 was my first real phone, but like I said, I had it for a couple months stock, rooted it, and almost immediately it went kamikaze OTA update while rooted and went haywire. I limped by with a mediocre rom for another 8 months, until some drunk A Hole destroyed it on Halloween. I may or may not be said A Hole haha
So I guess now my question is, once rooted, am I stuck at 5.1 forever with no security updates, software patches ETC?
and since most people don't have a true unlocked phone, is this process easier to do? I'm probably asking in the wrong forum section now aren't I?
I sure hope at this point if you truly have an unlocked bootloader, that you have the latest MM version 20B installed and have root! - I find that the stock ROM is the best performing and least buggy of any of them (with some minor tweakin)
Unable to Unlock BootLoader. SOS!!!
Hi guys! need a lil help here. I have LG G4 H815. Now this is what's happening :
1. I have tried t install LG drivers a million times but in the device manager, there's always some problem with them during the installation.
2. Therefore, I'm unable to locate my phone using 'adb devices'. I'm stuck on this first step for last 1 week and I have tried every available lg driver on the internet but still the result is same.
3. I'm using Windows 8 Pro.
What's the solution here guys? Your help will highly be appreciated.
you need "disable driver signature verification" to install it
(advanced reboot options from windows)
Still stuck!

I did as you said and disabled the driver signature verification at restart. Uninstalled the driver and installed again but still the problem persists.
When I connect the phone, LGE Android phone appears with a yellow question mark in the device manager. When I try to update the driver, it says that
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
MTP USB Device.
The system cannot find the file specified."
Still can't locate the device with adb. Please help me!
However bootloader unlock is not available for the H815P... :/

But...but...
But sir, my phone is H-815, not H-815P.
Please help me where I'm making the mistake. I want to root my phone but nothing is helping me out.
I am really sorry for opening a new thread, but i have searched extensively and found nothing related to it.
The problem is I recently bought a G3 Ls990 Sprint and i used ioroot and that lg root script 2.4 to root my G3.
My G3 build number is Zv4, and it didnt rooted my phone.
Which i came to knew later that only stump can root zv4.
The problem is, it somehow managed to change my download mode and it is not working. it says secure boot error and flashes led then restarts, mobile is in use and it is ok except then the download mode and unrootable issue. So i cannot TOT or revert it to stock.
One more thing mobile is not rooted, flashify cannot work as it is not rooted.
Stump root shows as rooted and cannot root it, and root checker says not rooted.
Basically i cannot root it because stump shows it as rooted and i cannot install twrp etc on it.
So its quiet complicated as i dont know what to do.
I know basics and all and i am not a noob or amateur related to android I just flashed or done something wrong with out reading. As i have owned G4 V10 and G3.
pls can someone help me. I would really appreciate and honor you guys. let me tell you already what s my problem
I bricked my LG g3 d855, I bought it maybe 2 or 3 days
from now. and on my previous phone I rooted them
all without any issue and install custom ROM and
recovery which called (twrp or Cwm)
so this LG g3 with running 6.0mm frmwre I tried to root
using kingroot but it was failed bcoz of updated security patch and kigroot does not support that kid of version. so I searched for another method of rooting.
then I found some forum that has the rooting process for LG g3 which I followed his procedure.
then I downloaded the same os marshmallow but lower release date maybe. kingroot does not support marshmallow with v30c up so I downgrade my LG G3 to lower marshmallow version. which is v30b.zdk files.
so the downgrading process was successfully done and flashed through lg flash tools via donwload mode.
then here it comes . so after I downgradey new lg g3
kingroot finally worked, BUT after o rooted my phone. there's still steps to follow according on the forum.
so installed kingroot.
I had to download the following files like he said.
so I downloaded the LG root file.
note: I have root access via king root
then I put lg root files on my phone Internal storage.
then run the autorecovery file which is the twrp. via file explorer
then it booted and bang it says you can now boot into twrp received
but it boot and bang turn off and dead. no power no download mode no recovery no sign of light
I tried to detect it using qhsub Qualcomm or adb fastboot but I think I miss something. computer detects my device with it power off but driver s not installed successfully. pls pls help.
It happened to me 2 days ago.
Google for "Fix hardbrick LG G3". you're gonna find multiple guides showing that you have to create a short between 2 points on the MB.
It worked pretty well for me, my G3 is now working properly.
