I think the only way to root the LGH636 is with Kingroot. For now the canadian stylo is stuck to 5.0.2.
If I root the phone, will I be able to get the 5.1.1 OTA update when (if) it come ? If yes, will I loose root after the update ?

if you root you can't OTA.....and if you have a unlocked bootloader chances are that if you do update via OTA that you will have a locked one

Hey all Stylo users,
I think my bootloader is locked or something because I can't root after flashing a KDZ for Fido on my phone. I flashed the KDZ, then in an attempt to regain root, restored from the LG PC Bridge program. But still can't root with LG One Click Root or Kingroot. Kingroot worked 100% before flashing the KDZ. Im just not clear on why after flashing it, root isn't possible. The KDZ thread states that there was no root method available for 5.1.1. or something. My current version is 5.0.2, and I have no OTA's pending. I guess Fido hasn't upgraded this phone to 5.1.1. yet. Can someone fill me in if they have any info? Thank you !
Flashing a kdz for the stylo locks the bootloader, and root will not be available anymore, thats why using a kdz should be used as a last resort.
Thank's for the info friend, and that's too bad for me I guess.
Just a general PSA. I reverted to 5.1.1 Lollipop stock and OTA'd to Marshmallow with my LG G Stylo purchased from Family Mobile. All seemed well, and I rooted via KingRoot, which claims it has a G Stylo unroot strategy for 6.0. All seemed well. Configured my phone, used apps that needed root. However, when I rebooted, I got stuck in the 1003 Security bootloop. Am now downloading Marshmallow KDZ to see if that gets me back into a sane state.
tl;dr Don't use KingRoot to root Marshmallow with your H631 just yet.
(Use this after all updates are taken)
Fastboot boot twrp recovery
Then flash the Twrp.IMG in recovery
http://m.supersuroot.com (to root)
Yep, I went the adb->fastboot->supersu route after reverting to stock. Xposed and TWRP seem to be working fabulously. Had a devil of a time getting fastboot to work with the latest LG Stylo drivers, and ended up having to install the LG United Mobile Driver in Windows and adding it in Device Manager manually.

I'd love to know where you found the Marshmallow KDZ also, been wanting to update but OTA wont work for me. gets half way and crashes.
Please do the reseach before going flash crazy.. On mm you need to fastboot unlock bootloader before root or you will get bootloop. Here is the kdz guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-stylo/development/stock-lg-h631-firmware-h63120b-kdz-t3339342. Here is the root guide i used and it worked perfect for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-stylo/how-to/guide-lg-g-stylo-how-to-root-t-mobile-6-t3333916. Anytime i flash kdzs, i turn off my internet connection before starting lg flash tools to avoid unimportant errors. The only thing strange with using lg flash tools without internet is the part where you pick install language is blank but still works perfect. Good luck
Has anyone figured out how to root LG G Pad 8 v495 (6.0.0 marshmallow)?
Software: V49520g
Kernel: 3.4.0+
Build: MRA58K
I JUST got this new tablet today and it was 5.0.2 Lollipop when I 1st turned it on, and it got a forced OTA upgrade to 6.0.0 marshmallow while I was still going through the factory setup/activation process! LOL!!! :highfive:

Root v495 AT&T LG Gpad F 8 "Firmware" 6.0 Mrashmallow with King Root.... So far I have successfully rooted & unrooted use King Root v4.5.0_2015_09_28 and the newest version 4.9.2_2016_05_30.. When running King Root it will say no root available but don't worry, just press "TRY IT" anyways.. I tried to find a version of Super-Sume Pro to remove King Root and all of its components but I have failed doing so.. I was also unsussesful updating SuperSu binaries so if anyone can find a way please let me know. I haven't tried the LG one click Root Tool used on the 5.0.2 Firmware as of yet but will update this post soon as I get around to it...
Enjoy Root

I also have this question. can you help me root my lg gpad 8 v495 att running android 6
I just bought a LG G4 ATT H810 unlocked phone with Lollipop system from ebay. I am thinking about upgrading it to Marshmallow. Will it be locked and needs to be unlocked again if I upgrade it to Marshmallow? Is there any way to root it after it being upgraded to Marshmallow? I heard that H810 phone has No-unlockedable bootloader if it be upgraded to Marshmallow. Thank you very much!
H810 means no root w/ MM. Not now and probably not ever. MM doesn't really bring anything new/exciting to the table that you can't get with other apps, so if root matters to you, stay in Lollipop Land.
****. I already upgraded to marshmellow

Im pretty sure cf-auto root by chainfire works with MM but you can double check his thead HERE .
My laptop is down ATM and am trying to find a no pc root method, but no luck thus far.
I tried
KingRoot (i know i know, but i tried anyway)
Galaxy s5 MM 6.0.1 (kltespr__SM-G900P)
