30c was installed in the G2 I purchased. So far 4 different rooting techniques failed (Purple Drake, ioroot, StumpRoot, LGOneClickRoot). I am about to try Kingroot, but am getting a little anxious because without root my plans for CM are on hold. If you need root and can root on 30b I would not recommend the upgrade unless there's an extremely compelling reason (battery drainage fix, etc).

Hi, I bought last month a LG G3 D850 from AT&T, I'm from Argentina.
I must say that I'm very disappointed about this phone by the way, the extraction of the FM chip is really anoying.
But I have it, and for a year maybe I must use it.
The problem is that AT&T only update Android if you have a SIM Card from AT&T, and in Argentina AT&T doesn't exist.
I rooted the phone and try Cyanogem (the graphics are really poor and the performance is poorer) and Cloudy G3 (that has A LOT of bugs and problems with the system).
So I ask you, if you can help me, the official AT&T Room of Lollipop. I prefer a lot of AT&T programs (that can be uninstalled) that have a rom that crash every 5 minutes.
I apreciate your help a lot.

You can follow my LG G3 back to stock guide and use the tot method. But there's no lollipop. You'd be stuck with kitkat, as OTA doesn't work. There's no official D850 lollipop tot and probably never will be. You'd have to flash KitKat. And hope OTA might some how work or try manually downloading the OTA after rooting the fresh install of kitkat.

That's a shame.
But anyway, it's secure to come back to kitkat? Or there's a chance of broke the phone without a chance of recoverying it?
Can you put the link of the guide?
Thank you!

There will always be a way. . Just like ever since it first came out. It's just very doubtful that a stock lollipop will come out.
It's not easy to link when mobile but here you go. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53452990
Also just googling LG G3 back to stock that guide is the first one.

If you are OK with keeping root and TWRP, there are in fact stock ATT lollipop roms that you can use.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/development/rom-lg-d850-20f-lollipop-5-0-1-extras-t3052041 - Stock ATT 5.0.1 ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/development/rom-20f-stock-rom-debloated-t3059610 - Same stock ATT 5.0.1 ROM but with most ATT apps removed
Thank you very much!!!!!
Just got my LG Stylo been debating about rooting it I had a rooted S3 and it was the cool I am familiar with flashing and everything but I just wanted to know if it is different if you use root king or do it through the computer

You need to say which version of Android you have on there and especially which company you use. Is it a sprint/boost/virgin or a tmobile/metro pcs? If you have Marshmallow and a sprint variant you can't root, only temp root and no roms at all. If you have a tmobile/metropcs then you can root and they have a rom or two, BUT you probably should not use kingroot NOW as they don't have Marshmallow root YET. You can go to androidforums to the lg g stylo and it has a tighter following and you can readup and get some easier answers
Hi. Bought a used d850, got a few questions.
I'm running lollipop 5.0.1. Is there any way to upgrade to marshmellow without an at&t sim? If no, what's the best way to get a sim if I'm located in canada?
Secondly, how do I go about rooting this thing? How stable is the most stable marshmellow rom that exists for the phone?
Cheers.

CyanogenMod is your best bet for stability now and no you don't need a sim card. Just Google rooting 5.0.1 and once rooted your good to flash CyanogenMod 6.0, you HAVE TO FLASH 6.0 GAAPS with it as well. Google all this and you'll do well, good luck!

Got a bunch of outdated results when I googled "rooting d850 5.0.1", any chance you can link me to an up to date guide?
Also, how stable is the latest cyanogenmod 6.0 when compared to stock android 5.0.1 that I'm running right now? How stable is cyanogenmod compared to lg based roms? What's the most stable lg based rom?
Also, some other questions. Is the d850 missing any features that the other lg g3 variants have? How do I go about making those features work?
Well I'm on an lgg3 850 running CyanogenMod 6.0 it's stable. If you like stock rom then stay with stock. Not sure if you could OTA without a sim card though.

I don't need at&t sim card if im getting cyanogen mod, right? Can i root my 5.0.1 without sim? What lg features are missing on your cyanogenmod? Can you double tap to unlock and double tap to lock?

No there is not sadly. Cheapest way is a go phone sim or H2O sim if you can get ahold of one.
There's no root for MM.

Yes, just won't have the LG phone or any of the LG apps, CyanogenMod has plenty though, YouTube CyanogenMod. No there's no root for MM you'd have to flash back to Lollipop gain root then flash CyanogenMod after you root Lollipop. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3249803
Not gonna hold your hand through the process dude, do your research like everyone else does...

Sry if im taking longer to understand this than usual, its my first time.
So if I want LG's Marshmellow, I have to get my hands on an at&t sim and that way I'll never have root access. The other way is to downgrade to kitkat, get root access, then get android 6.0 cyanogenmod/fulmics. Is that a correct understanding?
What features of lg get disabled with cyanogenmod/fulmics? Does the camera work fine? Does the battery life last as long as stock?
Also, another question i couldnt find an answer to - does my d850 have qi wireless charging? Can it get qi wireless charging?
Cheers.

Every single question you have has been answered and discussed here on XDA. Some of these questions I know for a fact have been discussed quite thoroughly in multiple threads. Please do your research.
Hello
I just received my V10, bought from swappa, and it has 5.1.1 on it. I see that there is no way to root MM, so we have to decide on LP rooted or MM unrooted, right?
If I want to root LP, can you point me to the thread? Also, I shouldn't accept the MM update once I activate the phone, right?

It all depends on what you desire. Some people (like me) can't live without root. Rooting unlocks the full potential and possibilities for the device. Sticking with LP rooted seems like a better choice to me. Also I've seen some people complaining about the battery life on MM as compared to LP.
Here's the link for root:

Thank you affangta. Of course i want root. Who doesn't? My question was more technical than theoretical, like your answer.
My phone forced the upgrade to MM, and thus I'm now stuck like many others; i had no way of stopping the software upgrade right after I activated the phone.
Oh well

Unfortunately, when I bought the phone MM update was already installed in it. Hence, I'm in the same situation as you. What I wouldn't give to go back to LP and root the device
Hey all! Good news! A 9-year-old bug called the "Dirty Cow" exploit still exists in the Linux/Android kernel can easily grant root on any Android phone!!! See the video below.
http://www.xda-developers.com/9-year...on-of-android/
So there's another bug to exploit for root and even possibly unlocking the bootloader! The bug has been fixed recently in Linux but hasn't been rolled into Android yet. If anyone can get this working on my AT&T LG V10 (running Marshmallow) I'll give a reward of $50! Plus you'll be my hero! Now get crackin!
Since I bought this phone, I got stuck and not much support for this AT&T version LG V10. I have gone through issues like Ghost Screen, Heat and Less battery life. Also I cant install TWRP recovery on this.... This phone Hardware and Specs are good but not much customization in ROM.
I am just wanted to ask my LG V10 is running 5.1.1 (H90010f) version OS and its without Root, should I upgrade it MM? can MM be Root - able and Installable of Xposed Frameworks?? I am not in the US and dont have AT&T network here I am just wondering how if my SIM Card doaest recognize or Phone become SIM Locked.. can any one help me / suggest me??
Thank in Advance.

you should'nt try to update your device through the available Kdz file cause it have corrupted many Lg At&t v10 phone. you will probably end up with a unusable phone.
i have updated my phone to MM but now its unusable, cant uninstall apps, fingerprints dead, cant even lock my phone
i would'nt recommend you to upgrade to MM but if you are still willing to do it do at your own risk.
no don't update your phone .. same answer above
