Basic questions on LG G3 and Marshmallow - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
My LG G3 D855 (32GB, international version) is still on KitKat, rooted, no custom recovery, with Xposed and some xposed modules like G3 Tweaksbox installed.
It's been working very well so I really didn't see any reason to upgrade to the buggy Lollipop release and then I stopped following all the latest developments on these forums. Now Marshmallow is rolling out it seems like a more compelling reason to upgrade:fingers-crossed:
My questions are
Is there a stable official Marshmallow release for the LG G3? From what I read there was only a partial release for Poland but not the rest of the world
If so is there a reliable root method for it (essential)
Also is it possible to install Xposed and G3 Tweaksbox (not so essential but pretty important, mainly to get rid of the annoying "battery full" notification that would ping and light up my phone all night before I installed G3 tweaksbox (I heard the G4 and G5 have the same issue, can't believe they haven't addressed it - everyone leaves their phone on to charge overnight)
Thanks for any help and advice

Official MM has been released for most G3 models. Best way is to download the official KDZ, extract system and flash it using TWRP and then flash Super su. Will be better to upgrade to LP modem ... Not sure if KK modem works with MM. Also, remember to bump the MM boot using sharpening mod script and set SELinux. Simpler to download a boot image that has been so modified.
XPosed and Tweaksbox works on MM. Remember to use Tweaksbox for G4 as the Tweaksbox for G3 does not work on MM.

[Q] D852 and Custom ROMs

I have an offer through Kijiji to buy the Rogers LG G3 (D852). I am currently an owner of a Nexus 5. A lot of things about the G3 are very tempting for me especially in regards to camera and screen size with small bezels. However I also like trying out what third party development has to offer. After going through these forums most of what I see is simply for D855 and D850. So, a couple of questions:
1. Rooting and "unlocking" bootloader: Is Purpledrake compatible with the d852 and can the d852 be "bumped" to have TWRP?
2. Lollipop: I'm aware that LG G3 now has Lollipop but are any builds compatible with the d852?
3. "Stock Android": By this I mean "not LG's skin", is there any way to get stock android or anything similar (CM12/PA/etc.) onto the the LG G3? I plan to use LG's firmware for the most part but the option to load an AOSP rom would be nice.
4. Backwards compatibility with AT&T model: Would ROMs that are available for the D850 work with the D852 since both are similar hardware?
5. Debloating: After rooting, can the phone be debloated to increase performance? I'm assuming LG has added a fair share of bloated software onto the stock ROM.
I really want to own this phone (the Nexus 5 just has HORRENDOUS battery life and camera for me) but the only thing pushing me away is the lack of development, if these questions can be answered and I can at least be provided with some hope for the future I will definitely consider buying the G3, thank you for any help in advance!
1. You can root it with Stump root
2. At the moment no.
3. There is CM12 but for D855. Carbon and Mahdi are also for D855. For D852 there is no AOSP rom.
4. No, it is not compatible.
5. Of course it can.
My D852 is rooted with Purpledrake and also BUMPED with TWRP recovery.
In the General section, read the Canadian Users thread and there are some converted D855 ROMS for D852.
ROMS are slowly but surely gaining traction. [I think there's a bit of a pause now as devs have moved from KK roms and now working on Lollipop ROMS]

[Q] How to get Xposed on LG G3?

I have a LG G3 D855 (32gb ver) that i have just rooted and flashed resurrection remix rom. The pain of losing default lg g3 features like knock code, split window, camera app, etc is proving more thab i can handle. I've looked aroubd and it seems xposed is the way to enjoy best of both worlds. Can any1 direct me as to how i can do thia on my newly rommed n rooted g3?
I was on stock lollipop until yesterday when i downgraded to kitkat use using kdz method and then rooting via purple drake and twrp and then supersu followed by the rom itself. What do i have to do starring from my custom rom to get xposed? Pls n tq in advance
Ideally speaking id to be want cyanogen12 (i prefer the cyanogen12 ui over the stock g3, its just much more mature n smooth), but have the default g3 bloatware especially Camera n maybe LG Health as well as Knock Code, and then have xposed on top of that so that i can use the g3 tweaksbox
If you have KK installed on your phone no need to go through anything hard. Just download xposed framework on your rooted phone and install it. and then install xposed through the app.
If you have lolipop on your phone:

Xposed on Marshmallow

It's pretty clear that the only workaround to get Xposed on LG G4 running Marshmallow is by deodexing apps. Apparently, there is a test version that was released on github that solves the issue and prevents the deodexing method. I tried it on my LG G4 running V20D and everything started working perfectly fine. I found it useful so I'm sharing the link here.

Upgrading to Marshmellow via TWRP?

Hi everyone,
currently I have LG G3 D855 CloudyG3 Lollipop ROM rooted with twrp recovery and I'd like to upgrade to android mashmello.
I checked and I found stock kdz rom 30b but that means I'm losing root and twrp (i guess).
Is there an easy and safe way to avoid losing root and twrp AND upgrading to marshmellow?
Thanks
You'll find a lot of custom roms (stock one ) having android marshmallow like Fulmics 5.1, Limitless and others try searching better then this and don't let your laziness stops you from enjoying a lot of awesome features *-* good luck

ROOT for F400K 6.0 MARSHMALLOW

Is there any known good method for rooting an LG G3 F400K running 6.0 ?
Reason I ask is that I have tried a few, none seem to work? Updates to most of them were around 2 years ago?
If you are on v30n firmware is impossible to root, for moment, and you need to revert to an older version on firmware , if lg flash tool don't work, give a try to lg up

Thanks for the reply. I'm on F400K30i.
