To put it simply
You cant. If you want TWRP and custom rom you have to downgrade to Kitkat to install it

Hi, first I own LG G3 D855 32gb with previously installed stock LL ANHD 8.3 rom with downgrading to KK rooting method. Today I decided to try fully root following guide from this threat given by @topet2k12001 and after clean installing LL 20H KDZ file I root it with no problem and then I decided to follow guide for installing bump¨d TWRP and aboot.img from KK witch I extracted from latest 10N KK version, only thing I did deferent is that for flashing TWRP and boot.img I used Flashify from playstore and for aboot.img I used Android terminal with commands in guide from this threat. After flashing all and turning off phone then turning it on to enter TWRP it work so I can state that TWRP is working fine, no more error, even I restore my backup (system and data) of rom ANHD 8.3 (LL) I used before this and all is working flawlessly with almost full lollipop rom except aboot.img (KK).
If you do bother to read clearly it requires you to flash the android bootloader which is a risky process since download mode function, bootloader and recovery all depend on it
If not done properly you will brick your phone. So please do not risk it and just downgrade it properly with LG Flash Tool, it will save you so much time.

Hi @itsbighead,
The "aboot.img" is the Bootloader (Android Bootloader).
The "sbl1.img" is the Secure Bootloader.
The "laf.img" is the Download Mode.
There are three (3) methods available in my thread:
1. "Kitkat Downgrade" method: this is the first method discovered/known to have custom recovery (TWRP) + root on LG G3 Android Lollipop
2. "No Downgrade" method: the reverse approach of the "Kitkat Downgrade" method
3. "Imageprep" method: it's nothing more than an automated script that combines the commands from the "No Downgrade" method. This is created to reduce the risk due to human error (typos, etc. when using the Terminal/Command Line)
The principle in the Kitkat Downgrade Method:
1. From a fully fresh/stock Kitkat, root the device
2. Install a "bump'd" (patched) custom recovery (TWRP)
3. Get a Lollipop Firmware and extract the following image files: system.img, modem.img, and boot.img
4. "Bump" (patch) the boot.img
5. Done
The principle in the No Downgrade Method:
1. From a fully fresh/stock Lollipop...
2. Get a Kitkat Firmware and extract the following image files: aboot.img, laf.img (some users nee to also download other image files like sbl1.img, rpm.img, tz.img, dbi.img, and persist.img)
3. Install a "bump'd" (patched) custom recovery (TWRP)
4. Get a Lollipop boot.img and "bump" (patch) it
5. Flash the "bump'd" boot.img, aboot.img, and laf.img
6. Done
The principle in the Imageprep Method:
1. Basically all the commands that need to be entered are automated in a script
2. Put the corresponding image files mentioned in the No Downgrade Method in the appropriate folders as per the instructions in Imageprep
3. Run the script
4. Done
So as you can see...either way, Kitkat Downgrade and No Downgrade have the same risks. The only difference is "which image files to flash", but essentially you are still flashing image files which, if done improperly, will definitely cause a "soft-brick". In any case, the problems are already anticipated and solutions already documented in the "Troubleshooting and Q&A" section of my thread.
EXTRA: as a matter of fact, it was one of your old posts that led me to understand all of these and therefore, led me to create a script. You are actually listed in the "Credits" section of my thread.

Hi @itsbighead. Let me assure you I, "Do bother to read clearly"sic. I do believe that if you had bothered to read the Thread clearly, @topet2k12001 would not have had to post such a lengthy reply...

New Guide root+twrp for 5.0 by auto -scrpit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/d855-one-click-root-twrp-recovery-t3072767
Hi I was wondering if it would be possible to unlock my bootloader and install twrp because my sprint lg g3 is already rooted successfully. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a method aside from downgrading and I would like to feel safe in knowing that I have a backup. Installing a custom rom is in consideration also so you if you have any recommendations it'd be appreciated.
Thanks, Josh

can confirm this method works. easiest tool available for the newbies.
Do you think that my ls990 already being rooted will affect the outcome?

Sorry to revive this thread. I was wondering that since I currently don't have the capability to unlock my bootloader, what steps would I need to take on my rooted ls990 to replace my stock messaging app with cm12's messaging app. Will it be compatible as I am running lollipop, and if there is a different build of the apk that doesn't need to be ran from the system and can be set as my default messing app please inform me.
Thanks in advance

Will this method work for D850?

I'm not completely positive but I've been told by some developers that I should wait it out until a method comes that is specifically known to work on ls990. I appreciate the feedback though.

Like in the link said: only D855.
for other Non-D855 there is other guides (the links are in post #11 Link).
try Autorec d855 @ playstore...find it and just run it...that's it
Hello everyone. I have been all over the web and especially in this forum reading up for weeks about rooting and TWRP Recovery for my brand new Sprint LS980 (Best Buy $150 plus tax!) that I updated to ZVE via OTA. I'm still a bit confused. Information is all over the place and varies. For rooting, there seems to be at least three ways from what I understand. The first is Stump Root, then there is LG One Click Root, and finally DP Tools. Which of these is best? I just want to keep the stock ZVE (Odexed) and be able to have TWRP for backup purposes. I may run the stock ZVG update in the future when it becomes available as a ROM to flash thru TWRP.
That leads me to more confusion. There seems to be two editions of TWRP available with various version updates for each. The original TWRP Recovery from Team Win and then Blastagator's modded TWRP Recovery with Thermal Control and F2FS. Which one of these two editions and WHICH VERSION UPDATE is best for my Sprint LS980 on ZVE? Do I need to worry about my phone heating up and melting from using it with the original TWRP? Please remember that I just want to keep it stock ZVE for now and maybe run the stock ZVG in the future. What is the best way to install the right TWRP for me after root?
I ask all of these questions because I read here and there about overheating issues and possible damaged screens from the original TWRP. I also read here and there about TWRP not working with ZVE unless downgrading the bootloader to ZV8 and/or the radio (modem) as well . I need Knock On/Off to work and there are many reporting it not working after rooting and TWRP. Can someone please clear this up for me? Thanks in advance.
If your on zve and want to stay on that. Then root with stump root. Then install autorec for kitkat. I suggest flashing dorimanx Kernal knock on n off works, and b there will be no wedgie line issues and no b overheating. Good luck

Thanks jcsheriff, but after some more research, I actually found the best way was to use Stump Root and then use Flashify to install blastagator's TWRP mod. This is what I did and it worked amazing and very easy (less than 10 minutes) on my Sprint G2 with no computer needed. All stock with no modifications and no issues at all!
The best way to root and install the latest TWRP for Sprint LS980 on ZVE (KitKat) with no issues is this. Easiest and fastest way and as simple as 1, 2, 3! So that all can understand this clearly if they need it, see below:
1. Root the stock Sprint LS980ZVE (KitKat) with Stump Root from here:
http://downloads.codefi.re/jcase/Stump-v1.2.0.apk
If you need instructions, read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906
2. Use Flashify from Play Store to install blastagator's latest recovery.img from here:
http://blastagator.ddns.net/twrp.html (You have to unzip it first)
3. Smile and enjoy the happiness!

Thanks for your guide.
I did your way and it worked.
But I had to force root.
The easy way to install recovery is with autorec for KK.
Worked realy fast and easy. But do not try to install twrp with autorec on other version.
I had my phone bricked by autorec.
Good luck
anyone know if loki works on ZVE

Hello, I've recently rooted my phone.
I have an LG D855 on Android 5.0 on software version V21A-EUR-XX
My question is, what is the safest way to install TWRP?
Also, what's bump? Is it related to flashing TWRP?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/help-thread-lg-g3-question-t2947298
Check the Q & A thread.
i used this app http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/apk-flash-twrp-autorec-thanks-to-t3081396
it is an .apk install it (take the one for d855) once the app is installed run it and follow the steps.
I suggest you after you used the app go to the playstore and search for twrp, download TWRP Manager by Jmz software and uptade the Twrp version to the last one from the app.
I have an unrooted gpad 8.3 how to get easiest to cm13 have searched the forum but i am unsure how and in wich order to do it.
I have the korean unrooted lollipop. A step by step that an non tech savvy person can follow would be great.
Follow these steps:
1. Root with oneclick root app Kingoroot
2.Install TWRP manager from Play store for download and install twrp
or
you can download it from here https://dl.twrp.me/v500/ and instal trough flashify app
3.then follow this to get TWRP working how to install KK bootloader + files
4. before booting to twrp, download ROM, Gapps whatever want or you would be forced to use adb/micro sdcard for installing it
When u installed TWRP + KK bootloader u wont be able to boot your V50030a ever again only if u do this : With same commands for installing KK bootloader u can install back the LP bootloader through TWRP terminal ..... to get stock rom working again
Thanks will try it during weekend
Took som time before i got time to try this but all went ok on cm13 now thanks for the help upu
