Possible to root Tmo G3 manually

Hey guys,
Just got my G3 yesterday after Jumping from the Nexus 5.
I was just curious, because I couldn't find anything after searching the Tmo G3 forum, is there any sort of guide to rooting the Tmo G3 manually? I understand PurpleDrake has his own root utility, which looks awesome, but I've always been one to want to see exactly what I'm doing to establish root. (I know it probably won't be as easy as rooting the Nexus 5 obviously)
If anyone could point me in the right direction, that would be awesome.
Thanks guys

here follow this if you have windows.

and if you have mac and linux its very straightforward just follow purpledrake method
this is the easiest android phone to root ive ever encountered seriously.
i did it on my mac and no need for drivers, and few clicks on terminal and you are done

I rooted with the zedomax video method posted above. It's super easy and only takes like 5mins to do.

if you can help me to do it, that will be excellent, i am thinking on do it with kdz, but i am not sure what will that suposse, i will lose all on the system partition (no problem because i was don't rooted now) or will lose too the data partition? and what file to choose, i think that my model is the "europe common (is D855)" with that i found the file that is supossed to work, but i am not sure if KDZ is what i need, it is?
and like i am downgrading i will need CSE flash and not a Normal flash, what partition is supossed to be cleaning that?
Thanks for all and sorry if my english isn't the best one

Follow this guide.

[Q] Downgrading and Rooting

My G3 is the 16gb D855 V20h-EUR-XX version, I would really like to root it but have been reading on these forums that I'd have to downgrade to KitKat first, I've never rooted a phone before let alone downgraded one either, is their any in depth guide's or videos I could follow because I'm not really sure what to do, I don't know how to flash and I don't know what TWRP is , any help would be much appreciated please.

First, root then discuss TWRP and flashing.

Make sure you get the proper files for your specific phone. Don't try to use a file that wasn't made for your phone model or build number.

Rooting LG G3

Hi,
I'm sorry about the noobie thread (and I hope I've put it in the right section) but I've been trying to root my LG G3 for around 2 days now and every method I've found just doesn't want to work.
I have tried:
One-Click
PurpleDrake
Razrs edge
LG G3 Root Script v1.2
This isn't all the ones I've tried, I've tried others but couldn't actually find them all due me downloading them after they've failed.
It's the D855, Android 5.0 (Lollipop) and I'm based in the UK.
the major issue I had was the ADB being out of date, tried updating drivers and all sorts but still no luck!
I had another issue with an error message popping up and closes the command prompt, somethings towards not being compatible...
I'm close to giving up but thought I'd make a post asking for any advice on how to get this sorted.
Thanks for any advice,
Walsheh
EDIT: LGD85545108b5
I got this from one of the LG G3 Root command prompts, don't know if it's decent information.

Give this method a try...

Which method should I choose to root my LG G4 H815?

Hi,
I'm unsure on which thread to follow to root my device for best outcome.
First link talks about steps that are in the following second link. It talks about following steps in 1,2,3 for example, but doesn't list all of them. I'm curious to know if by leaving some steps out would I make a mistake or what? Whereas the second link provides the root guide but with less information, and is not related to first thread and I assume is to guide you in rooting your device successfully. I hope I'm not confusing this.

2.http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3049772
EDIT
I have tried following first link, but sadly failed when entering a code. Would it be best to try second link and follow those steps? I don't want to be missing out valuable steps that could screw me over.
