Hi,
I want to root and install CM13 on my H815 10c International G4.
For rooting i`ll use this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
After root, CM sites states: For CyanogenMod 13.0 it's required that your device is running stock Android 6.0 (H815_V20A or higher).
So i need to first flash a 6.0 ROM, but which? I found this: H81520B_00 zip 1.4GB.. but i`m not sure that this will install cleanly once rooted.
Basically how to i get to 6.0 so i can install CM13?
Thanks

You can upgrade to 6.0 but if you want to flash CM after that,you have to unlock your bootloader first,then root,then flash Twrp...
The only G4 variant that can be bootloader unlocked is H815 Eu version.

Hey!
Going to make this as short and simple as possible.
So I was runinng stock LG G3 4.4.2, but about 1 week ago I recieved the 5.0 update to my phone. I was all glad and dandy until I got sick to my stomach with McAfee (unfreeze-able and non-removable) and games starting to lagg without device even getting hot...
So I decided to Root and run CM or some other more lightweight ROM, but to my greatest fear, 5.0 seems unrootable atm!? I am at a loss here.. I am in no way happy with the Lollipop update, I can't even see if my device is running ART or not, and the overall experience feels even more sluggish than before - Need a 'get out of jail' card over here ~
Sidenote; I've only ever owned Samsung Devices (S2 and S4) as main phones, so I feel a bit lost when it comes to how LG run things (no Odin is my primary issue, as well as limited support since the device is not all that popular).
TL;DR:
1. Is there a working Root for LG G3 International d855 (32gb, 3gb RAM)devices running stock 5.0?
2. If not 1: Is there a way to downgrade from 5.0 to KitKat again?
3. If 2: What's the best way to Root the device with, and what Kitkat version should I run?
1. No.
2. See FAQ in my signature for links for guide to downgrade (guide is listed as unroot in faq).
3. PurpleDrake should do.

I am currently following your 10 (6) linked guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
But I am already stuck on 1.. http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/
What firmware file do I pick? Using the 32Gb LG-D855 (international), and I picked it up along with a carrier contract from "Telia" (Swedens biggest carrier).

Yes, that is the guide.
You need firmware for D855. Latest Lollipop version is 20F.

Wait what? Exactly which file do i download, to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.4 "KitKat" again?
Currently downloading this file; "D855 TOTs/ -> LGD855AT-V10e-EUR-32G.zip" Is that the wrong file?

Download kdz file.
If you want to downgrade then some v10 version. V10N is the latest.

Man there are so many variants of G4! I did read guides but most of them just cover international models.. Its more confusing. I wont wanna brick my phone.
You cannot root F500K MM. The only way to get root is by flashing 5.1.1 LP.

Hello,
As i understood you don't have Root access,let me tell you some things.
First,If you proceed rooting your mobile,you may be unable to boot your phone.
Second,you should be really careful with what you do.
If you want to proceed,Go to Settings→About Phone and tell me Device Model and what V(Version)of Marshmallow you are.
Greetings.

If you reinstall V30n you aren't going to have root access.
Why not going to a custom ROM?
There is a big variety.
Fulmics it use's LG UX5 (LG G5 software) and with Xceed kernel or Gabriel the phone will have a great performance.
Cyanogenmod aka Lineage OS(The one that I'm using right now)
Great performance,stock android experience and with Gamma kernel you are going to have +more performance and battery life.
But if you don't want to install any ROM then you can flash the pre-rooted V30N and flash Xceed or Gabriel kernel.
P.S:Would you like me to provide you a guide on how to Downgrade your device?
Greetings.
Hi guys, I'm currently on Marshmallow stock firmware with lineage os 14.1 as dual boot rom (I used dual boot patcher) . I have a LG g4 h815 with unlocked bootloader and twrp. I would like to downgrade my primary stock rom to lollipop (I don't mind wiping also lineage os rom). Can I use twrp to do so instead of LgUp? I need a flashable zip of the lollipop stock rom, where can I find it? Do I need to flash something else like modem or bootloader zips? Is there any custom rom for lollipop? For those wondering, I want to downgrade because both lineage and stock MM are awful for gaming, I can't get acceptable performances even with geometry dash. Thanks in advance for your help.
No one? I don't think it's a difficult question for the most experienced Android modders...
