Okay. So I've decided that I wanted to root my SPRINT LG G3. The only legit method I've found was STUMP, which claims that my Phone is patched. Since I've never encountered this problem before, I have no knowledge of how I can upatch it. I've tried looking for other root methods but found nothing compatible with the LS990 LG G3. Do you guys know any other root methods, or a way to unpatch(Provided with links please.)?
Hi,
You can review this thread, especially the first post. Lots of info. It seems that's your only root method. As far as undoing stump, You'd need to ask in the Stump thread about that.

Good luck!

Lg stylo H634
I have the Lg stylo h634 through Cricket. After reading another thread I used Kingroot to root my phone. However I decided I wanted to removed the root so I can upgrade to Marshmallow. So I purchased Supersu to get rid of kIngroot. My phone is now stuck in bootloop. At this point I don't care what ROM I have, I just need my phone back. Any suggestions, help or even a "I'm screwed buy a new phone" statement would a least let me move on. I have been at this for about a week now.
Thank you

Bring it to where you got it and play dumb. Don't mention root or anything of the sort. As far as they're concerned you don't know jack about phones. Just tell them it froze and you had to pull the battery to reset it but now it wont turn on.
My Cricket Wireless LG G Stylo is also briked
I rooted my Cricket Wireless LG G Stylo (H634) with Kingroot then I used Super sume to covert to SuperSU instead of Kingroots after I used the Super sume app and updated binaries the phone restarted and and is stuck on the LG logo. Boost and Metro has flash files all over the web TOT and KDZ files we need flash files for the Cricket Wireless LG G Stylo if anyone can post them online thank you in advance.
Me 2 but i still had warrant after i rooted
I bricked my phone with supersu me but i still had warranty after i rooted with king root so i called it in and they gave me a new phone
I rooted my new lg stylo with king root and sticked with kingroot cause i dont want to
Brick my phone again ever since my phone worked perfectly fine if you ever get a new phone just stick with kingroot
Avoid apps that cause phone to Brick
Xposed installer
Super SU me
Dont use these apps unless theres a kdz available for your phone
I am rooted with New version 4.8 KingRoot. Have root checker Pro by joeykrim. No issues. First attempt with super su bricked. But phone was three days old. Duh my phone locked. New phone is rooted for good. Need custom recovery though.

Hey guys,
Hopefully this thread continues to grow for the LG G stylo Cricket version (h634). I'd like some help and would really appreciate it. I currently have the latest updated LG G Stylo Cricket version and would like to know a few things:
•*What is the safest and successful root procedure? I've heard too many bricking issues, so I am afraid to just jump into it. My software version is the latest, which is the H63410g version
•*Is there any actual factory restore available? I came across this thread and not sure how accurate or valid it is: http://www.mylgphones.com/cricket-l...are-how-to-unbrick-restore-back-to-stock.html
The main developer on a original site said to please not share freely, but if it works, I really do feel everyone with a bricked device should donate for his hard work and help. Its a paperweight + having to buy another $150+ device vs $10 + supporting passionate developers.
• Why do people insist on using super su instead of just keeping kingroot? Isn't kingroot enough for root?
•*What is the best way to modify the lg g stylo to force the system to automatically use the external sd storage for all media including apps, cache, etc.
Really appreciate an insight here. This low memory storage on the lg g stylo cricket version (8gb) is ridiculous and impossible to work with without worrying about low storage issues/errors
Please advise, thanks guys.
I just rooted my h63410g with kingroot. It says that it's not recomended but hit the proceed anyway and it'll work.
I only did 30mins of research and realized DO NOT USE SUPER SU. IT WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE. just use kingroot for su.
I havnt done any bloatware removal yet but everyone says that the paid version of link2sd is the way to go.
The link you shared with the stock firmware is password protected and none of the comments can confirm it works. Hopefully it does tho!
I've managed to root my Samsung TabPro w TowelRoot w/o tripping KNOX, and subsequently changed the ROM to a different/later stock version and successfully re-rooted after that. I've rooted a simpler pre-KNOX Samsung w ODIN and TWRP. Pretty easy to follow the directions for both. BUT, for rooting my low-end LG Leon running 5.1.1, I haven't found any attractive options. Looking at KingRoot convinced me that I do NOT want to go that route. All that to say that I'm no expert on rooting, but can research things and follow directions.
I've really appreciated the value of a rooted device with respect to getting rid of unwanted built-in apps, or at least keeping them from nagging me to update them. I'd like to have the same options with my LG Leon, but am NOT finding any credible approaches for obtaining root.
Any suggestions? I understand that a prior exploit that worked w 5.0.2 was patched, and so can't be used w 5.1.1. But, that was true for Samsung, and swapping out the kernel for an older, vulnerable one allowed me to root my TabPro w TowelRoot, and then restore the latest kernel w/o losing root. Might something like that be possible with my LG? I don't know enough to know how to put together something that could do that, only enough to be curious enough to ask if it could be done.
Just wondering. I'd really like to find a way to root this phone. Any suggestions? Thanks.
OK. I KEPT looking and, lo and behold, to my surprise, the solution was right here in the forum. It involves NO KingRoot or other weirdness, and it WORKED first shot. So, if you've got a T-Mobile LG Leon (or some other LG models), hop over to to the thread titled: "[GUIDE] how to root US LG G Stylo on 5.1.1 and unbrick updated on 9/2/2015" and check it out. It was stunningly simple, especially after rooting my Samsung TabPro TM-325.
Again, I'm running 5.1.1, not an earlier version.
I've been searching for a long time and haven't found any guide supporting this device that didn't say "Only works for lg g3 5.0 or below".
I want to root my device without downgrading it first, is that possible?
