Root issues with LG Optimus G

I'm having issues with a LG Optimus G. I can't access Recovery or Bootloader. I can't even root it. When I use Root Checker, it says something it's wrong with the actual root.
All I wanna do, it's to install a custom ROM. But that seems impossible since I can't even get into recovery. I installed a KDZ but even then it won't work.
Download Mode, seems to be working. I tried rooting with the bat file, but nothing, it won't work!
I followed the Unbrick Tutorial, but nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I used this Root on E975 with Stock 4.4.2 and it worked.
There is also a detailed description how to do it right.
You can unlock the Bootloader with FreeGee after you've rooted the device.
Then i would recommend you flash TRWP 2.8.7.0
P.s.
But you also can try towelroot or maybe King Root but i suggest the first Methode.

Thanks! King Root did work! Now it's rooted, still I can't install recovery I tried with FreeGee but it won't work it says "Perfoming action" for about an hour. Also tried with Rom Mananger but nothing.. it won't install it.
I keep getting the error "Secure Booting Error! Cause : boot certification verify" each time I tried to boot into recovery.

Maybe re-flash the last original KDZ file for your device first and then do the common steps -> Root -> Unlock Bootloader -> Flash Custom Recovery
You can Boot into download mode by "Hold VolUp + VolDn and put in the Charger cable connected with your Computer"
Then you can try the Original LG Software to "Reset" the device or use the LG Flash Tool 2014 to offline Flash a KDZ file.
KDZ for you device you can get here or use the Original LG Firmware tool to download for your device.
Get Sure you backup all the data you need before, becasue this Method will "clean" your device completly!
Edit:
Get sure you use the last USB Drivers, i've used the LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.0.4.exe

HELP! Fully wiped. Only Recovery mode is possible. Help me flash a stable ROM.

What I've done:
1. Tried LGNPST method but phone never showed up in the software
2. Tried flashing with LG official tool. That always resulted phone disconnected.[I did put my phone into download mode]
3.Tried almost all KDZ_FW_UPDATE methods they always stopped either in not responding-> close program OR extraction error
4. Tried sideloading using adb but they also resulted in "bad file" even push didn't work saying no permission to write(I think)
for adb I tried converted .zip of kdz using some guide in xda.
My phone is totally clean now. I can boot to Recovery or Download Mode. There's no file that's flashable right now. I'm in Philz touch recovery
This actually happened while I was flashing to unlock bootloader and charge went low.
I desperately want it to function properly. Please anyone with any new or updated methods, help me.
When normally trying to boot up, Google logo comes and phone switches off.
I was in F180L converted to E975.
I've INDIAN(20a) version kdz also european(10h) and korean(30e).

Soft/Hard brick when chainfire rooting

Hi there,
Proud owner of a new Pixel XL. Unlocked version. Tried rooting last night (i've rooted all devices i've owned and am not new to this). Followed the instructions to a "t". The device won't get past the white screen and dots leapfrogging each other. Now when going back to fastboot, device isn't recognised by ADB Fastboot etc...
Please help!!!!

My guide should be able to help you get back to the OS and then install root.
Keep in mind you may lose data if you don't remove the -w from the script mentioned in the guide.

Did you unlock bootloader?
Then immediately try rooting?
That is one cause for bouncing dots.
You should: flash factory image, then boot into device before any flashing. Setup device until you are at the home screen and OS settled. Use a pattern or pin security. That is needed to make recovery work properly. You need to decrypt at recovery boot. No ask for pin? Then power off and boot TWRP again.
Follow directions in TWRP and SuperSU threads to a Capital "T"...
Versions:
Latest "Q" firmware
Boot TWRP RC1 img, then flash zip installer
Use SuperSU 2.79 SR1.
You'll have no bootloop. I found first rooted boot to take just a few minutes.
Just in case: update SDK platform tools if you haven't cos that screws people up for days too.

Thanks mate. But i get to step 9 and nothing happens. My device is no longer recognised

thanks mate, but the problem is that now the device is simply not recognised by my computer. I can't flash anything

I should clarify.
SDK is 100% up to date.
I am trying on both Windows 10 and Mac.
Device drivers worked fine prior to trying to root.
I'm really worried that i might have just bricked a $1.4k(aud) device

I unlocked my bootloader and got a bootloop when I tried to fastboot to root. Would not recognize the device either. I redownloaded SU 3 as suggested in the third post and it worked. Good Luck.
I used the fastboot to root method and did not install TWRP.

Thanks, Mike01680. trying now

When i go into sideload i can see the device listed on adb devices!

Okay. Booted into recovery, found my firmware for NMF26O. Downloaded and ADB Sideloaded it can once again boot. thanks for all of your help!!!

Stuck on team win recovery project please help

I have no idea how to root or anything like that, I bought this oneplus 3 and had a update a week later.. so when I did the software update it took me into teamwin recovery mode and now I don't know how to get back into my phone please help....

Did you buy the phone second hand or did you try to flash TWRP yourself? It shouldn't have TWRP installed by default.
Regardless, you can use TWRP to flash the latest update.
Given that you have TWRP, I'm assuming that you have an unlocked bootloader. Did you notice a warning pop up everytime you reboot your phone before? It should say something along the lines of "your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted". If not, you'll have to unlock it (it wipes your phone in the process).
If the bootloader is unlocked, you can simply download and flash the latest zip for OOS 4.0.3 in TWRP. This will update you phone and replace TWRP with the stock recovery (so you don't run into this problem again in the future when installing an OTA). If you don't intend to modify your phone in any way, then this is all you need to do, your phone should be functional.
There are plenty of threads with detailed guides on how to do all of this.

I'm also stuck on TWRP after stupidly downloading the latest OTA and I don't know what to do!
Phone won't boot normal, just goes off.
Situation:
- Bootloader, Fastboot and TWRP wil load.
- Device seen by windows
- Zip install in TWRP gets stuck at 'patching zip unconditiontally'
- Another zip flashes, but gets stuck at the end, no reboot option (manually but that's not the way)
Can someone please point me in the right direction? I don't care if I lose data, just want my phone back!

Saying i'm a dipsh-t I know, I know, I will do better in the future, for now, help a brother out please

Simple, check the OnePlus D/L sites for this one http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/recovery_op3.img and flash it by TWRP or fastboot to RECOVERY. Boot once with the official Recovery and all ist fine again.

This is issue of using a faulty twrp so for that when ur phone us booting up go to fastboot and flash twrp 3.0.4-1 and everything will work

Similar Problem here:
just wanted to flash latest OOS 4.0.3, so I flashed back stock recovery with flashify and rebooted into recovery mode to flash the already downloaded OOS 4.0.3. zip. That's when it began to go poop! After rebooting it just went dark with no Chance to power it on again! No dice with power button, Volume up/down + power button, nothing! Not even the LED's are blinking when plugged in. So this one seems to be basically dead!
I got it once booting again after randomly pushing the buttons (after x minutes!?), but everytime I reboot the phone it just shuts off without beeing able to power it on again. At the Moment it's dead!
Any ideas what might happened? If I get it on again, should I immediately reset it to factory Settings?
I am kinda lost here! Any help/ideas would be much appreciated!

Flashify? Never used it and never trusted apps which flash stuff on a running system. Use fastboot and reflash the recovery partition. Link to recovery is in my former post.
fastboot flash recovery PATHTOIMGFILE

Thank you for your advice! Still a lot to learn! Got it up again, will try as you suggested!

It appeared that my stock recovery file was corrupted , but all is fine again! Thank you very much!

I may have been the person you traded with to get the OnePlus 3, but I took the phone back and after 5 hours I got it up and running.
The phone would boot to TWRP, but even after wiping the entire system and dragging a ROM zip to the internal storage, reinstalling did nothing. It just kept booting back to recovery.
The solution entailed the following.
Download stock recovery IMG. Flashed through TWRP. Rebooted recovery and now was back to stock recovery.
Download the official OxygenOS ROM zip from the OnePlus website and changed the name to update.zip
Next I downloaded Android studio for access to ADB. I had never used ADB before, but I knew this was needed to push a file to the phone.
Needless to say, ADB kept freezing my computer when I would type in the commands to side load.
I deleted Android studio and installed a minimal ADB/Fastboot I found online. I opened my command prompt, typed the command for sideloading, and immediately got my installation starting. It took about 10 minutes to fully install. When it was finished, I rebooted and had a fully functioning OnePlus 3

G710PM EDL Method didn't work, Tried rooted boot image, but su prompts do not pop up

Hello all,
I'm working on getting my bootloader unlocked. I bought what I thought was a ULM model off Amazon, but it appears to be a Sprint PM model that's been flashed with the ULM firmware. Sadly the EDL method doesn't seem to work on this phone (either the drivers aren't correct or some other issue is preventing me from getting past the Partition Manager step) so I was trying the old method Here. The issue I'm having is that the rootedboot image allows me to boot and Magisk comes installed, but any su commands never bring up a root prompt, including adb shell.
I also goofed and hit the "Install" from the magisk app and it appears to have made the bootloader angry, as the phone will no longer boot without my manually pushing the rooted image. I also cannot get LGUP to recognize the phone anymore (saying "Unknown model" so I can't flash it back to factory with the KDZ.
I still have access to Download Mode, fastboot, and system by pushing the rootedboot image.
Any help would be appreciated.

UPDATE:
I managed to get a root shell by re-patching the rootedboot image using the updated magisk manager application!
Bootloader is now unlocked, and I'm working on installing TWRP etc
Edit:
I'm still on the v35 abl at the moment, and that may explain why booting to the twrp recovery isn't working. Not sure yet

Use universal twrp ON any pie+ rom
