First kdz that I tried and failed was europe one( probably first version of marshmallow) Second one that I fixed with was TRD855 (30b)
[G3 General] miguel7501:
All right. If you still want to go for root, I recommend flashing a 10x kdz file. This is what the devices usually ship with, kitkat. There you can either search for a 1click root script or try kingroot. It should even be able to grant you permanent root acces without having to flash anything else. Then you can update through the settings like usual and the root acces should stay. I dont know about flashing new kdz files, but any custom rom will be fine.

Try a different version number of Kingroot. Even an older one (see the software bundle in post #1). When I was re-rooting V30c a couple of weeks ago, I had a couple of false starts before I discovered that the older Kingroot (4.5.6, I think) worked while the latest one did not.

You can go back to 4.4 and run a 1click script from your PC. That will give you permanent root access even after updating. Then you update to the latest version and youre done.

I've tried Kingoroot and 1 click root, all doesn't work. Still haven't find a way yet. Kind od disappointing really, was looking forward to flashing cm13.
[G3 General] miguel7501:
For the 1click scripts you first have to downgrade, wich you can do via the LG PC software. Just download an older kdz file (preferably 4.4) from the LG website and flash it, then use a 1click script. you can then install TWRP from 4.4 and flash CM13 with it.

I cannot root my D885 on V30b-SEA-XX

Hey guys,

when trying to root my phone I always get the message: "Root strategy unavailable, no strategy now".

I've even reflashed the .kdz as someone suggested on this forum, but it hasn't made any difference.

The only thing I can think of that I am doing wrong is that my phone might not be the GLOBAL or the EUR version, since I noticed that the software version is V30b-SEA-XX, where SEA means Singapore from what I've found out on the internet.

Does somebody know why I cannot root my LG?

Thanks in advance!

[G3 General] cultofluna:
You don't have to go to download mode ..after you flash the permissive zip and you get a bootloop ..remove the battery ...put it back again and boot manually toTWRP..flash supersu zip and reboot...
[G3 General] Bailx:
ahh.. thanks... i got into twrp... flashed the supersu zip, but it still won't boot up after flashing 3__HacerPermisivo.zip

i guess i'll throw AzadiROM on here and try to get back to "near" stock that way (that rom works well enough for ls990 g3 models on sprint, and not sure which KDZ file i would need for the U.S. anyways, as it seems to be absent from this list http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/D855/)

*edit*

AzadiROM was a no go, gets an error Fastboot mode started after flashing that

i guess i'll try an AOSP rom, but the phone was only just activated and i had planned on keeping it stock for a little while .... i'll post results for the other guy who had these problems if i have any luck

*update*

I was able to flash cyanogenmod 14 after updating the radio

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/radio-modem-lg-g3-t3110376

hope that helps the other guy who was stuck

p.s. to that guy -

the method is slightly different on the sprint g3 (ls990) phones to boot into recovery using buttons

on the d855 you hold vol + down until you see the LG logo, let go of both for a second, then press and hold both again, answer yes to both prompts and you'll be in twrp

You have to downgrade to v30b....

Otherwise you can't obtain root....
[G3 General] Runzolf:
Hey people, I can't get that thing straight.

A bit of recap

Had my D855 on 6.0, couldn't make Kingroot to work, neither flash the TWRP. So after looking around on xda my choice was to downgrade it with LGflashtool plus the .tot file, and then flash the .zdk, precisely the D85520A_00 version.

After that I could use Kingroot and flash TWRP. All working fine, so I decide to try some ROMs: Bootloop.

I'm able to access TWRP but nothing appears to be helpful.

I surrender, use the LG Suite repair tool. Back to 5.0 but my antenna doesn't work. At last I updated it to 6.0 30C, working antenna but I'm starting over (no kingroot, no TWRP)

What do you suggest me to try this time?

Thanks in advance!!! :)
[G3 General] cultofluna:
Downgrade to v30b with lg flashtool...

Then follow the same steps...

Bro, I tried this one as you recommended, and the root process fails at 30%. With the others it fails at 51% or 53%.

I've been thinking to reset the phone and take a chance with the last Kingroot version, but if it doesn't work I would have had deleted all the data for nothing. I read the Kingsroot app should do the job even with 30b, but it seems that's not my phone's case.

[G3 General] cultofluna:
Did you flash permissive kernel zip before flashing SuperSU?
[G3 General] Runzolf:
Yes, I forgot to mention, I did for sure, the "Hacer Permisivo" one right?

Could this be because of something i installed earlier? I remember using a .tot file a year ago ( v10e... 2014... something, can't tell precisely) for a downgrade.

Also thanks a lot for helping me through my troubles!
[G3 General] apolousm:
Hello guys, how are you all?

I am aware this may not be the site to post this problem, but I think I could some help here as I screwed the phone while trying to root the phone. The problem is that I installed all the files, it worked all fine (for a while) but I wanted to install some files, so I formated the phone to start over again -here comes the hard part- I used the Flashtool's CSE flash option to restore the V30B-EUR-XX rom. The process got stuck in some point, so I had to remove the battery unplug the phone and start over again, but the phone is stuck in the download mode: no recovery mode, no boot, only download mode. If I try to use the the Normal Flash nothing happen, but there is difference: with the Normal Flash mode the phone doesn't connect to any port but the computer makes the "plug noise" when I connect the phone, with the CSE Flash mode the phone connects to COM 8, but the "connection to the server fails". So the phone may be bricked in some way, but I hope you can guide to some point where I can solve this problem.

Thanks to all for your support with this.

Have an excellent day guys.

UPDATE: Problem solved with the TOT procedure.

If TWRP doesnt work for you, you can try CWM. It usually does the job just as good, its just a little tricky to control with the volume/power buttons on the G3.

As always, sending logs would help everyone here.

5.) reboot into twrp and flash bet-supersu2.52 reboot

at this point im on system boot and kingroot.apk isn't installed althought purify is installed and supersu is installed but requires a binary update

[G3 General] Rom:
Sorry, I hesitated to put the links to the zips that I had to use to no longer have to make to the messages of errors concerning the problems of starting on the telephones type LG, but since it is asked nicely, in this case no problem.

At the beginning, i wanted (right word ?) to fix the root access on my D855. Initially i has flash the permissive zip to "inject the octet" to signed the boot img and make the kernel permissive to can be able to make SuperSU beta 2.52 zip able to work on my device but the root wasn't permanent..

So i have search on many XDA pages, reddit etc etc....

After many hours of searches, i have understand that my root (and by check my loggcats) that in certains works the SuperSU binary files were kick from the system by SELinux and many others android policies..

And i have find this XDA thread: https://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/development/stock-d855-30b-images-kdz-flashables-t3282012

=> The zips include in this thread have the necessary files to replace a false boot img by the V30B boot img bumped but i must wipe the data..

After that, my phone became functional again.

So i have flash the V30N (that is for me the best ROM for D855): https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68559943&postcount=3480

To avoid my first problem (temporary root access), i used the DP Root method: https://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development/dp-root-win-tool-to-root-lg-devices-t3074717

To have a permanent root, i worked with the last TWRP version (get it via Flashify, the app recommended by the dev team :good:).

After that, i install the SuperSU app from Play Store (as an anecdote, I never understood how the application of ChainFire stayed and is still on the Playstore knowing that Google knows what it serves but there is not the problem and its developer has other Problems. In pasage a big thank you to him for all his work if I have one day the chance to cross him or rovo I pay them beers abundantly ahah.)

So after install that, i don't open it and reboot in TWRP to flash the permissive zip and superSU 2.52 zip (from this thread), reboot in normal mode and open SuperSU to update the SU binary.

==> Finally, now i have my phone reboot, test it via many reboots and use :good:

The reason that i have not explain step by step by an simple answer that is i was already warn about multiple post by another XDA members....why they made that ? I always wondered :confused:.

So, for me, there is the method that works (for me):

I wiped all partitions except my external SDcard (so system, data, internal storage, cache, dalvik).

I used this XDA thread to download and install (so update) all partitions on my D855: https://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/development/stock-d855-30b-images-kdz-flashables-t3282012

And i flashed the version i wanted (so for me the V30N, the V30O was originaly build for an specifiq Est Europe country).

=> Link for V30N: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68559943&postcount=3480

Rebot in normal mode to initialize my phone after these big changements..

After have a good working system on my LG phone, i used DP ROOT V2: https://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development/dp-root-win-tool-to-root-lg-devices-t3074717 to get my phone permanently rooted.

I rebooted in TWRP to flash the "BETA_SuperSU2.52.zip" and hacer_permissivo.zip" to get a proper kernel and to be sure to boot normally with a good stuff.

Reboot in normal mode worked and i installed SuperSU official app from the Play Store, open that and update directly the binary. No one errors and i now, i have a permanent root on my D855 using these files, and that from approximativly 3-4 weeks :)

So with this method, i use stuff from V21A and V30B, its just that rpm and tzcome from V21A because @autoprime explained, they don't arrived to get all stuff from MM works succefully with permanent root.

Why ? Compatibility problem that i have understand but i don't arrive to explain, if you want to know more about this issue, ask this magic team (Which I thank very much for searching and working at the source code of LG stuff :good:).

I hope that this method could help many users to get revive their LG phone !
