Downgrading LG G3 from Marshmallow to Lollipop or KitKat? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to root my LG G3 but there are no root methods for an LG G3 running marshmallow. I have tried One-Click methods like ioroot, towelroot, and kingroot, but for some reason, my device just won't get root access. Now, im trying to downgrade the system and try out the various root methods available. Can anyone can point me to a good tutorial on how to downgrade the system? I have the T-Mobile D851 model but on At&t network.
Thanks.

LG-D851 with Wind Mobile (Canada) can't root.

I just bought this D851 and I am with Wind Mobile in Canada. I have tried rooting in all the ways I've researched online. Youtube has several methods none have seemed to work for me. I've had many rooted phones and flashed many ROMS with those phone. I'm no pro but I know what I'm doing basically. I just cannot figure out how to root this phone. Any help or solutions to this would be very helpful and appreciated.
Assuming the phone is running LP, and you've already tried the one-click method, then use the second method in this thread...

Thanks I'll try it out. I have v20g and Lollipop 5.0.1. Purple Drake and Towel root did not work.

Root for LG G3 D850

Hi all,
Is there any information on successfully rooting 6.01 on LG G3. I tried a few of the rooting apk's and they don't work.
Try flashing the stock KitKat tot file first. Then root/install TWRP.

Take a look at this first if there is not k in your variant then you can downgrade. https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/help/vs9854ba-root-downgrading-t3575145
If your variant does not have a K then downgrade then root and then install what you want.
