LG g3 n00b questions

Hello
i am a new LG g3 user and a completly Noob
All i ask this question before i hope i can have any help
i have root my LG G3.
- Can i still receive and use LG updates of will my phone crash
- If i want to unroot my phone i see in the tutorial that there is some links one of them ask what serial you have, i have a LG G3 D855 10H. In the tutorial i see only the 10D and 10 E. If i want to unroot what do i need to use the 10D or 10E or is there a 10D version on XDA?
thx for answering
I can only answer in regards to the LG updates, as I have the T-Mobile variant and am unsure with the D855.
With root, you can still accept and download LG updates that are for LG apps and so forth, as you'll see them pop up in the Settings menu.
Ok so system updates fro. LG is not aproblem

But you won't be able to install OTA firmware updates while rooted, if you try it will give an error and it will just go back to normal like before you tried to update.
You can download official firmware KDZ files and update manually by using a flash tool. All relevant help with regards to doing this is in various threads on the forum.

LG H815P Question

Hi,
I have the LG H815P variant, this is my first android phone, and would love to know how/where to check if it has received 6.0. Is there a specific website? Can I force the update somehow?
Thank you
If you want the easy way check on Lg bridge for your phone software.

Does it depend on where I am located, what country I mean and not the variant model?
Yeah..different countries get the update sooner..Poland for example

Sorry for my questions but what are the downsides and is there a guide/link to a tutorial or something?
You can install the INT h815 MM but you will have no root as there's no unlocked bootloader for that model

Help needed for noob trying to downgrade then unlock bootloader

Hey guys just bought a second hand lg g3 appears to be the singapore model. Its a 32gb D855 and was running lollipop 5.0 when i got it. Im trying to downgrade it to android 4.4 kitkat so i can then unlock bootloader and flash TWRP so i can flash roms. 1) is that plan correct aahaha will this even work. 2) what kdz file do i need off here http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/D855/ theres two singapore models which one do i need? thanks a lot guys
Hi
You should have no need to downgrade to Kikat. Search XDA G3 forum for Root tool v3 and use it to root and followthe instructions on installing TWRP.
I have the Taiwan version of the D855 32Gb and that is how i did it on Lollipop 5.0.

I'm such a noob smh. Turns out I have the European version XD. Anyway reckon you can link for to this thread man finding the most current root method is so confusing ahahahah. All the ones I've seen for lollipop are only root and don't install TWRP so I'd really appreciate a link thanks

King root is for all Android versions from 4.4 up to 6.0.1 I guess

Yes i know but in xda people don't like using kingroot app.... say it has security issue.....also get kernel panic issue with kingroot but it can be just for me...
Yeah but if you install a custom. Rom after using King root you can use it and for me it was only option because of broken USB port
