Im trying to root my phone and have tried purple drake and gotten error messages saying my version isnt compatible Ive tried stump abut it says its discontinued. Im afraid to keep trying and bricking my phone as a result. Does anyone know a method for rooting my phone? IVe went to faqs and checked out the spreadsheet and that failed thats why Im here
Here is the software info

2016-05-01

Hi,
I'm in the same situation as you , i get an OTA update D85030L , Can't root :crying::crying:
i tried KingRoot But it's a temp root can't event install TWRP on it
Help Please
You have to downgrade to KitKat first. Word to the wise though, grab the modem from mm first as there isn't one available for download on the d850.

I've done some reading, and it seems there are two relatively easy ways to root the Sprint LG G2 - IO Root and Towelroot. Just wondering which one is recommended. The most important thing to me is that I won't lose any data by rooting, and I guess the second most important thing is being able to unroot (since I believe LG will eventually be offering Lollipop 5.0 and I'll definitely want to upgrade to that, and then hopefully re-root )
Thanks!
UPDATE: Here's my Android info just in case that helps.
Version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20046
Kernel version: 3.4.0
Build #: KOT49I.LS980ZVD
Software version: LS980ZVD
First off here are the current details of my device:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Model Number: SAMSUNG-SM-N900A
Android Version: 5.0
Baseband Version: N900AUCUEOC1
Kernel Version: 3.4.0-4335446
Build Number: LRX21V.N900AUCUEOC1
Knox Version: 2.3-------------------------------------------------------------
(Sorry I would have posted screenshots but I don't have 10 posts yet.)
I bought the phone with KitKat 4.4.2 and Baseband Version N900AUCUCNC2
Since then it has been updated through:
KitKat 4.4.4 - Baseband: N900AUCUDNJ5
KitKat 4.4.4 - Baseband: N900AUCUDNL1
and now Lollipop 5.0 - Baseband: N900AUCUEOC1
I carelessly updated my phone via Firmware Over the Air (FOTO) not knowing at the time that it would change the process for rooting the phone later on.
I have tried many tutorials and checked various threads throughout the forum for a solution but it just seems AT&T phones are extremely hard to root nowadays.
Some of the things I have tried without success are:
TowelRoot
KingoRoot
Root De La Vega
and possibly a few various other methods.
It is also possible that I may have done one of the above methods incorrectly, although I tried to follow the instructions as carefully as I could for each tutorial.
I have heard that it is easiest to root this phone while it is at KitKat 4.4.2 and I am curious if there is a way where I could downgrade the Android version and successfully root this phone. But I have also heard that AT&T patched 4.4.2 so that it was harder to root although I am not quite sure if this matters.
If anyone has any solution to my problem I would so greatly appreciate it. I want to be able to use this phone to its full potential before I get a new one.
With the 5.0 update comes a fully locked bootloader. ..which means no kernels....ever again. .
Downgrade is not possible to an older version. ..
No bootstrap recovery exists to my knowledge. ..and leaves you with no real root options. ..
Perhaps our devs could find a method. ...but support is not looking good for this older device.
You are locked up tight. ..
Very sorry. ...g
Sounds like you have a Note 3, not the 2.
What he said. Note 2 is i317 and has no lollipops
Tried Kingoroot, IORoot, lord knows how many. None have worked so far, anybody managed to successfully root this model ? Cheers

You need to flash back the stock JB and go from there. Follow the guide in the posting below:
