Do you need to root the LG G3 D855 device to get CM 12/12.1/13:silly:
Yes you need root because you need to install a custom recovery if you want to flash cyanogenmod or any other custom rom.

Hi,
Is there a way I can flash a CWM or TWRP Recovery on my LG G3 D855 device? OR does this require an unlocked bootloader which this is not even available atm?..
Can you tell my if it's possible to root the v20e version on a LG G3 smartphone?
No way to currently root lollipop on LG g3, you need to install rooted ROM, downgrade to kitkat, root and install TWRP recovery... Then install any of the rooted lollipop ROM.
everybody has waiting for working root

how i can install a custom rom.
Hello everyone I am a new to android and flashing roms on kit kat and lollipop. Right now I have a stock LG G3 D851 (T-mobile) running android 4.4.2 kit kat. I plan on rooting this phone but I need to clear something up first. If I root my 4.4.2 phone and install twrp, could I flash CM 12.1 or Cloudy G3 2.3 or would I have to update to official lollipop 5.x.x, root, install twrp, then flash those roms?

You do not have to update before installing new roms. After your rooted, intalled Twrp and so on, you are good to go.
Make sure you read all about rooting and flashing rooms before doing so. The guides here are very helpful. Even if you have done it before each phone has its own process.
I want to flash supersu v2.64 to my stock LG G3 D855.I know i need twrp but twrp need root.How can i do?
