Rooting H815 on Marshmellow - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have LG G4 H815 on Marshmellow. I have unlocked the boot loader but i want to find out how to root the phone.
So far, I have tried the two method below without much luck.
1: ) http://www.technobuzz.net/install-twrp-recovery-on-lg-g4/
2: ) http://www.androidrootguide.com/2015/06/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-and-root-lg-g4-h815.html
Infact the problem is after trying option 2, The phone gets stuck in bootloop and just does not want to start.
To resolve this issue, i started the phone in download mode & then using LG Bridge, Used update error recovery option to restore the phone in booting again.
Any help / guidance to get the phone rooted will be much appreciated.
Regards
Iru

You said you have unlocked bootloader, so you can simply do same thing as me:
1. Download which ever kernel you want to use, I used simpleGX
2. From the zip package copy the boot.img
3. Reboot to fastboot by and flash the boot image (fastboot flash boot yourbootimghere.img)
4. Reboot the phone to the bootloader again.
5. Flash latest TWRP image (fastboot flash recovery yourrecoveryimghere.img)
6. Reboot the phone
7. Reboot to recovery
8. Flash SuperSU if not included in your kernel.
9. All done, enjoy root

HELP - TWRP on OnePlus 3 running the Open Beta 9 (Nougat ROM)

Here's the deal. I unlocked the bootloader of my OnePlus 3, flashed TWRP Recovery with "Tool All In One" through my pc. Then I was able to root my phone, I did it and then, flashed the Open Beta 9 through TWRP.
Now the problem I have now is that I'm unable to flash TWRP from my computer and I don't know why. It doesn't display any error or anything else. But when I boot into recovery mode, it is not TWRP, it's the stock one. Help me out. I want root and Xposed lol!
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
into recovery Vol Plus and Power
flash SU
beta9 is Nougat so xposed is not working yet.

You need adb and Fastboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979&page=95
On The Fastboot PATH
Same directory, Put twrp.img
Shift and Right Mouse.Open cmd and type
fastboot flash recovery "twrp file name.img"
You can get TWRP.
I recommend TWRP .28
After you can flash any Rom and Kernel , SU etc...
You need modified TWRP Recovery to Run Open Beta 9, official TWRP won't work
Here's the link for Modified TWRP

Thank you guys so much, I successfully flashed TWRP on my phone. First time, it didn't want to boot but when I rebooted it id did
... Well, update: Booted into system and when y tried to boot into recovery, this time unplugged from the pc, booted with stock recovery -_-
... Update of the update haha: I downloaded the root zip and then I flashed the TWRP, Installed root zip and made a backup of the whole system and now, the TWRP recovery is installed permanently. Thank you if you guys followed my thread.

TWRP gets overwritten

I'm on latest ob18. I am able to flash it, and run it once, but after reboot, the stock recovery gets Back. Any ideas?
Just Reflash twrp via flashify or adb in fastboot mode, that could be normal if u r flash an unmodified stock rom
Yep. On latest ob-Oos or H2o for me recovery stays, after instaltion of the rom. But on a second reboot, stock recovery shows and i reflash custom recovery again.
Guys I flashed latest H2OS beta over OOS Beta18 and lost access to recovery. These are the steps I followed, please help.
1. Backup current ROM (OB18)
2. Dirty Flash New H2OS version
3. Flash recovery image again
4. Reboot system
ROM booted without any problems and all my data is present but I lost access to TWRP.
Solution attempted: Reboot to fastboot and flash recovery image again, the process is successful but still TWRP is not coming up.
Please help. Thanks in advance
Stock rom always over writes recovery best way to get it to stick is flash stock zip than twrp reboot to twrp and reboot or flash mods/root

Just flash magisk.zip with recovery and everything would be ok. So install now magisk.zip and after that go to twrp and flash and you're done.
1. Flash recovery via PC
2. After flash recovery unplug cable than MANUALY (dont use pc command in cmd!!!!) restart into recovery (in fastboot use volume +/- button)
3. Flash Magisk
4. Reboot to recovery
5. Done

Issue since beta 11 on OnePlus 5t

Hello,
I have an issue since open beta 11. When I do a fastboot oem lock, my phone boot only in bootloader mode or recovery mode. If I unlock the bootloader I can boot on beta 11.
The problem appears since the beta 11. I Installed the beta 10 with a locked bootloader after installing the recovery.img without issue, and if I upgrade it to beta 11 I encountered the same issue I can't boot with a locked bootloader. I have to unlock it.
Any idea ?
Regards

I think you need to do this steps:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Install TWRP
3 wipe everything and format data
4 install stock recovery by flashing recovery.img in twrp.
5. Reboot to stock recovery
6. Choose ADB sideload in stock recovery
7. Flash OB10 by Adb sideload.
7.1. Reboot to stock recovery one more time and install OB11-OB14 by flashing it by adb sideload.
8. Reboot to fastboot from recovery
9. Lock bootloader
10. Reboot to stock recovery
11. Wipe everything.
12. Reboot to system.
I hope this can help you.
And remember: "All you are doing, you are doing on your own risk !!!"
P.S. also you can solve this problem by using unbrick tool. For me it was the best way to solve all my problems with my OP5T.

Done this several times, but I didn't use hard buttons, instead i used fastboot boot recovery.img command to reboot to recovery after flashing recovery. I also tried rebooting to recovery from twrp without problem, but after rebooted to system, twrp reverted to stock recovery, everytime.
I didn't have this problem with MIUI 10.3.1.0 with the same TWRP.
edit : I'm using TWRP 0330 btw, and somehow there was no swipe to allow modification confirmation when the phone rebooted to twrp for the 1st time after flashing twrp.
Wonder why.

Tks, but I don't have problem with TWRP 0330, it works fine, including touch screen, the problem is TWRP get replaced by Stock Recovery everytime I boot my my phone to system.
I don't want to root my phone, just like to have TWRP recovery around so I can use it to flash hosts file for ads blocking and some other things.
Someone told me i need to flash lazyflasher...I'm going to do it later ..

Boot to recovery through fastboot and then flash the image or the zip through TWRP, then to flash it reboot again to TWRP before to boot up to system.

No. don´t try to boot to recovery from fastboot after to flash it, don´t flash it through fastboot.
Do the next three steps and see what happens but do it exactly the same or won´t worth the try:
- In fastboot delete recovery partition by typing fastboot erase recovery
- Then reboot to recovery (don´t flash it yet) by typing fastboot boot twrp.img (rename recovery image firstly to twrp)
- Now once in TWRP flash the zip or image to the recovery partition, when you finish go to Reboot options within TWRP and choose recovery to boot to it before to boot up to system. If you boot at this instance to TWRP then the issue have to be solved, reboot normally to system.
Edit: If this way the problem is not solved then after to install TWRP flash Magisk that can prevent it to be overwritten.
