Unable to root D850 - Help requested please - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a D850 with the latest version of Lollipop.
I have tried several different methods in the forum to root it; however, no luck. I've tried so many different methods that I am about to go bonkers. I have the correct drivers installed. I just cannot root and install recovery.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

have you tried one click root method?
are you on stock factory image?
try autorec for installing twrp and use the latest su from chainfire to root.

Yes. I have restored to factory via the flashtool and upgraded to 5.01.
I've tried the one click method I think. However it appeared to work but then got a secure error when booting.
Maybe I need to look at the one click method again. I seem to recall more than one version.

I basically want to flash a stock Rom without all the AT&T bloatware and to hopefully make for a smoother scrolling experience.

Damn...still not luck. Restored back to stock via LG flash tool. Still at Kitkat.
I tried installing stump, but fails during installation with no error message.

Try towelroot on kitkat

Need Root for AT&T Nitro HD Official Rom V20c

I downloaded the rom via LG Support Tool yesterday. I was looking to do so because the leaked ICS rom would restart on me multiple times daily so I could not install ROM manager and flash the rooted version of the official rom. Tried all available rooting tools including Matt's method, Superoneclick, UnlockRoot, and TPSparky. Can someone help me?
Best way, that i choose is install CWM ROM from HO!NO! You need to go though unbricking guide. You can flash leaked firmware from .exe, then root and flash stock GB images. On 10f you can install CWM, then flash rooted 20c.

The only problem is that the leaked rom is unstable and sometimes takes 10 times of it restarting before it lets me get the device on.

You don't have to use the leak... Just download v20c and flash it in CWM.

To clarify, to use HoNo's CWM-flashable version of the official ICS (not the leak), you have to have installed the leak, then unbricked to GB, rooted, and installed CWM. If you haven't flashed the leak, you will boot loop trying to install HONO's CWM version of the new official/stock ICS.

Mine never bootlooped at all.
@mattman86,
It's not installing the ICS leak that does the trick, it's going through the unbricking guide, which you've definitely done because you basically created your own revision lol.

Oh, I see... My bad.
I would need to go back to the leaked ROM in these cases, which is a problem. It is unstable on my device and I might have to send it back to LG for the 3rd time. I need a method of rooting that does not require flashing a ROM.

It didn't work. I have the Transformer Prime and I started with the premise that the Transformer Prime root techniques worked on ICS Leak, so I thought maybe voodoo root keeper would work when upgrading to the official release, but no dice. The upgrade wipes everything clean except the data on the SD card.
I had to run the unbrick procedure.
So there is no way to properly install Clockworkmod from the leak? I've tried to and it gives me this message at boot, "secure booting error! Cause: boot certification verify".
So I need to take it all the way back to gingerbread then install clockworkmod? Please help, I'm confused!

Finally have rooted V20c!!!! I still haven't been able to install clockworkmod so what I did was brianlil's method. Once I rooted V18f via TPSparkRoot and let the phone reset itself 30-40 times (for some reason V18f is notorious for that on my phone. Caused me to ship it back to LG twice). Then I put the image files brianlil provided on SD card and flashed using adb. Turned phone offf, removed battery, factory reset, and voila, rooted LG Nitro HD 4.0.4!!

I've found the kitkat rooting tool for Optimus G Pro which was released yesterday. It's confirmed to be working for F240x series phones with KitKat.
StartRoot.bat will take you to a cwm recovery mode in where you can select the sideload option to install the root files. Once done, just install supersu from Play.
Just tried it on a F240K and works fine.
It's working On AT&T E980 (unlocked) E98018c too

Woke up this morning to notification of new software update from att. I'm already on the official KK update from couple of months ago. Anybody else get this? What is the update?

But i actually meant did anyone know specifically the differences much like Andy's question
The update forced on my phone, crashed it because I had a custom recovery, so I had to flash back to. Jelly Bean and now I can't obtain root after re-updating.

Have you tried it on a device thats had the new ota update installed?
Also I thought there was a security concern with the kingo root method, something about it being from China and contains malwares that sends files back to its home server, supposedly these files are the ones necessary to clone the device.

I installed the OTA update and then Odin TWRP and then flashed super SU. Root is working just fine for me and still sticking after reboots.
You installed the latest security update OTA (190mb) and then Odin TWRP? It didn't seem to affect my installation of TWRP or at least I was able to get into recovery as before. Install SuperSU as before with no errors. Reboot and no root or SuperSU. May have to do a complete reinstall tonight. Glad to know root can still work after this little update.
Solved: installing the latest SuperSU 2.71 worked without a hitch, root restored

I did want to ask only in koops thread, but well, not much answer there. So i ask only once again here, definitely not every thread available.
Moreover, everyone's phone could have its own issues, which need troubleshoots. Not all are the same.
I have installed twrp so many times for so many phones, so that i know that might be something else.
Im using twrp 3.0.2-0 in koops thread on pd2 well, but it didnt work on pd3. So what might be wrong here?

Rooting XA1 Ultra Oreo 8.0?

So I tried to root my XA1 Ultra, but without luck. The bootloader is unlocked and twrp is installed but root? From all the methods the internet gave me I only have one left to try (unless I oversaw something). I use Magisk Manager so my option is to either get the boot.img file for my phone and let it patch or flash the zip thru the recovery which needs a data wipe and I am tired of setting up my phone just to see that nothing happend (I mean I can ignore this point). But I guess that the encryption system (also in twrp) is my enemy.
My question is: Is there a solid way to root my devices? It is stock rom and has Android 8.0 NOT 8.1.
thx
Flashing magisk zip file should not requirer a data whipe.
I have never heard you should whipe data but when you install twrp you need to reformat your device.

Hi there,
I'm looking for a ROM AOSP for my Sony xperia xa1 ultra
I would like to manipulate fonts and I think this is the best way to don't get a bootloop
I would feel really thankful if you could give me a link or whatever, I can't find it by myself
Thank you

I don't really know what exactly you want from but I can only say where I downloaded the firmware.

I tried su but it aborted. And I had twrp installed but now when I try to flash it, my phone is stuck in bootloop.
That was is exact method in my mind after installing twrp. But have you cleared it from bootloop?

I only got twrp flashed once with fastboot. The twrp image was downloaded for probably the Android 7 version.
So is not for xa1-ultra g3221 oreo? And have you gotten your phone out from bootloop state?

It is not for oreo and I got rid of bootloop by flashing the stock firmware with flashtool
At least out from bootloop. Which site if you mind where you downloaded the stock room, because most of this sites claiming to have stock domains are not reliable.
