Just wondering if there's a thread I can follow about anyone working on lollipop 5.0.2 root. News, updates, anything really. Want to be able to root as soon as someone figures it out. Ota removed root from lg gpad 7.0 v410 now running 5.0.2 kernel 3.4.0+.
I've tried every method available, with no success.

I'm going to buy a G2 on Saturday (D801) and I'd like to know how to downgrade it to KitKat. Lollipop seems problematic in terms of trying to root, install TWRP, and flashing CM12.1. On KitKat I could just use Towelroot and AutoRec (simplicity, we need it!). So please, if you can teach me how to do this, that'd be amazing. Thank you.
I have been pouring through fourms for about a week, trying to figure out if it is possible to root my tablet and install Cyanogenmod on it. So far I have not had very good luck with any of the methods that I have found. There is a stable snapshot, along with nightly's for this tablet, so there has to be a way that it can be done. Any help would be appreciated.
Tablet specs:
LG-V410 running on AT&T
currently on Android 5.0.2 lollipop
I am happy to provide anything else that might be needed.

I've tried it using Purple Drake, I fails out at the beginning and just reboots the tablet. I have tried several methods that have also said that my device isn't compatible somehow. I'm wondering if it might be because it just recently updated to android 5.0.2 Lollipop. I liked the tablet until it updated, and now it runs slow as crap, and won't update apps properly.
I am planning to root my G flex 2 ...
My doubt is that if i do so Will i still get System Updates or will they discontinue to give updates ....
Please guide me !!!!
OTA updates, sadly, no. You can root and unroot though, there are many threads on the forum. Look for them..
Sent from my LG-H955 using Insomdroid
So if i rooted my flex 2 ,how will i know whether a OTA update is available ????
I have a Lenovo Tab ,which i rooted .In that i still get OTA updates ...
Like that why cant i get OTA updates in my g flex 2 ??
Different companies have different policies, for example Sony are quite happy for you to unlock your bootloader (voiding your warranty) and LG Won't allow us to unlock our bootloader. And to be honest I've always found out about new OTA updates on XDA way before my carrier get the update. If getting the latest ROM is such a big issue for you I'd suggest you remove root as I don't see LG changing their policies any time soon. And if your wanting Marshmallow when it comes out you can only root it with an unlocked bootloader at the moment, something we don't have.
According to news, LG will soon release marshmallow update to G Flex 2 .
So, mine is a AT&T model H950 ,running lollipop also rooted.
If I want to install the update what should I do next?
Please explain as I am not a expert,Just a newbie .
Will unrooting help ?
I rooted my phone using Kingoroot which also has a unroot option.
On one droid maxx I had updated to SU6-7.3 after which I had downgraded to SU6-7.2 and then to SU6-7 to root it with CrashXXL method. Another droid maxx is updated till SU6-7.7, and I want to downgrade it to root it. I've heard that I cannot downgrade it which means I cannot root it. Please can anyone help me through the process, can it be downgraded or can I root it on current firmware?
Can you please tell me how can I downgrade from SU6-7.3 to SU6-7?
Yeah, I need also downgrade from SU 6.7.7
Is it possible or not?
Want Su6 7.7 downgraded...
I want to downgrade my droid mini su6 7.7 ...please help me...
NO help yet guys , be patient and put up with it.
*one year later*.. I would like to downgrade.. Has anyone found a way to root/downgrade SU6.7-7?
Hello,
I have been trying to search for an answer to this but have only found ways to root a note edge or root a note edge after upgrade.
I know that when Lollipop was released, there were discussions of how you had to go back to a stock configuration, then upgrade, then root again.
I have a stock kernel root 4.4.4 which I did back in 2014.
Is there any way of being able to upgrade, while rooted, to Marshmallow?
Regardless of the answer, all help would be greatly appreciated as to the required steps to move up to the new ROM.
Links would also be helpful.
My intention is to remain in stock root configuration.
Also, if any of you have Marshmallow with root, would you happen to know if the old GalaxyTools ver 2.2 works with it (the only reason why I have not yet upgraded)
Thanks in advance
