both LP and MM can be rooted, but only with your PC (via ADB etc.)
On KitKat it is sometimes possible to root it with the Kingroot app, at least for me it worked.
I'm going to wait for MM until I root again (I did the LP update some days ago)

how does it work then? I only found one guide but you have to use a homepage to get the unlock code and the homepage doesnt work anymore.

I never really looked into it since I updated my phone to Lollipop.
When I update to Marshmallow I will try to root it again but I'm fine for now.

really every rooted stock rom I ever had would not receive updates. It would say your phone has been modified and can not receive updates.

How to root LG-H955 device on android 6.0.1 ?

Hi EveryBody,
First time on a xdadeveloppers forum, so sorry if this post is not in a good place.
So i'm looking for rooting my LG-H955 device in which Android 6.0.1 is running (downloading and installing with LG PC Suite).
If someone has a very good easy solution for that, it will be very nice.
Thanks in adavnce.

Your most likely going to first need to downgrade back to lollipop before you'll be able to root.

Thanks for your answer.
I was sure I have to do that. Is there somewhere a clear procedure to do that ? I mean (link to rom + some explanations).
Thanks in advance.

As far as I have seen in the forums the flex 2 is rootable only in lollipop by flashing a rooted Rom. so far the MM roms have not been successfully rooted.

Thanks a lot. I am going to test that.
For later, is there somewhere i can find official Lollipop (non-rooted) and MM roms.
Thanks again

Unfortunately, it doesn't work. I waited for more than 15 minutes and nothing happens. So i reboot the phone (hold vol. down and power together). And no-youpi, it was still my non-rooted android 6 installed...
I do not know how and what to do now.... Let's look for !!!
There is hope to root locked bootloader LG, if anyone has the capability to study these.

Yes, I know that. From what I read in his second post, he wants a way to root his phone, knowing that he has to downgrade to lollipop. So I gave him a way to downgrade to lollipop and to root it.

No because these methods need a debug bootloader and debug kernel from a debug phone..
I wonder i g flex 2 has a debug phone.. that also if possible of att h950...

DirtySanta is exclusive to v20 only I guess..
But we can extract a system img using dd from download mode and decompress it... Add mods and repack it and flash..
All aslongas super user binaries aren't added... You can put any mods.. sad no one has done it yet and i am on h950 so no MM

Nougat? Anyone? ?

Is this official Firmware updates? I don't get the these updates on the updater app in my phone. If not, can I install this update on unrooted/unlocked device? And after installing this update will I be able to install OTAs from built in EMUI updater app? ?

And you can install it using this app? Even if you are not beta tester?
I just got OTA
Hey everyone I just got the OTA update for EMUI 5.0. I don't want to install it yet until I know I can get TWRP back. Do you guys know if the update will remove TWRP? If the update does remove TWRP can I reinstall it using adb and fastboot? Also does Xposed work on nougat yet? Sorry for all of the questions I'm back on android after two years on Windows 10 Mobile and I'm a little out of the loop for a lot of this stuff. Thanks.

You can. Just backup your stock recovery and stock boot image before your root. If you want to receive OTAs again, just restore those two then uninstall your root app.
