Hi,
I have looked high and low for a tutorial on rooting the LG G3 verizon (VS985) on 6.0 marshmallow. I know you can use KRoot but im looking for SUser method.. If its not possible on 6.0 i am also stumped on downgrading to lollipop to root there.... Thanks any help is appreicated!!!!
Last I knew there is no root available..like to know myself,as I do know I've been told to down grade,then root..

There's only Kingroot at the moment, no permenent root as of yet.
Usually it's left unrooted or they downgrade their bootstack, install TWRP, and then flash a custom stock ROM (like XDABBEB's 47A or Azadi).
Kingroot actually works,i thought it wasn't comparable with MM, got stuck in bootloop??. I pretty much gave up on rooting 6.0 as the out come was 100 percent to downgrade.better safe then sorry,if downgrade then root works why take the chance of bootloop,just my thought..

Rom for the G2 that's ported from the G3, the rom is sim unlocked, very easy to unlock a Sprint LG G2. Always flash the GSM version of the Rom through Aroma
Hi all,
I tried to setup on-screen phone (OSP) on the G3 but it didn't work.
Installed all drivers and having a connection with LG PC Suite with no problem as well. But on-screen phone doesn't find my G3 (D855).
In another forum I found out that also the menu entry for on-screen phone is gone which was available on the G2.
I also contacted LG support in my country because of this. They even called me twice and said that they have to check for themselves if this is not supported anymore and they want to get back to me with further information.
For me this is a killer feature and one of the main reasons I switched from Samsung to LG. I cannot be that this is supported on older LG phones but on their flagship device not anymore....
That would be another giant step back for the step backward thread here...
If this is really true is there a way to port this feature from the G2 to the G3?
Have a great day.
Cheers,
JJ
Look around. I remember reading through a thread where somebody provided a solution to activate this feature.

It worked for my 851(T-Mobile G3), thanks!
Has anyone been able to get this working on the Sprint version of the G3?
I've tried countless times (just tried again) and made sure I followed the steps precisely, but to no avail.
OSP (nor does LG PC Suite) still does not recognize my phone, yet my PC recognizes my G3, allowing me transfer files.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help

My wife's phone is downloading a114mb update right now. I was just messing around and was surprised to see something start downloading.
Edit - Looks like some new bloat called Lookout was installed. Unless that was always on here. It's a system app so all I can do is disable it.
Lookout was on mine when purchased Saturday (12/6). Is there an update log?

Hey guys we need somebody to download the update on their phone and upload it. Just DO NOT install it yet because the file will be deleted once you do. I think it's stored in a security or cache folder somewhere, I forget exactly.

Honestly I haven't read the changelog feature update list from Samsung or Sprint but I can say that it may bring some hidden suprises.... and not the good kind. I could be wrong but if you're like many people here at XDA, you might want to hold off until more information is available from somebody who can give more details on what this OTA contains and how it will effect our phones. These days carriers are getting more and more sneaky.
I have update ready also. So going to backup. I have fake system status enabled. Im on echo rom. When I get home this evening Im going to try to download and install on to0 of echo rom. Is this a good idea? Or should I flash stock firmware take update and hopefully reroot ect.

114mb its a small update. The connection issues this phone has im at the point of not caring if It breaks root permanently. Has anyone taken update and rerooted? Three blocks from a tower and struggles to hold lte.

Hopefully this fixes the Wi-Fi issues, and adds more good stuff.

I installed the update and it did nothing in the way of fixing the slow LTE/SPARK speeds. So it was a useless update to me. I have anew N4 arriving tomorrow from Sprint, maybe Ill be one of the lucky ones and get one that does not have the slow issue. Seems a handful of models out there don't have the slow data speeds. I wish they would address this issue before other lower priority issues.
So far this isn't available through Kies. I'm new to using Kies, should I expect it to become available any time soon? (because my phone is rooted it won't even check for OTA updates.)
Seems to fix all the lag problems I was having. But I already ordered a replacement. ?

UPDATE* Well the status bar icon is different, no more spinning star for Sprint Spark. New icons and Samsung pay from I've noticed right away.
No more spinning spark icon is worth the entire update lol
Yeah no spark icon. What I find particularly hilarious though is that the Samsung pay app is installed, yet does absolutely squat.
Edit: feel I should add that this phone has never been rooted, so it's not Knox related either. Lol.

Can someone who has TRIPPED KNOX and taken this update, but is now 100% stock please go into Samsung Pay and see if it gives any sort of error message saying Knox is tripped?
Also, can someone please test the multitasking and have like 7-10 apps in memory and try switching between them? A screencast would be awesome too. Thanks!!
