For those of you looking to root your LG G Flex 2, LG G2, LG G3, or other LG devices on Android 5.0.1/5.0.2 Lollipop, we have some good news, WE HAVE ROOT!
Thanks to XDA user Unjustified Dev and a Korean user, we can now root most LG devices on Lollipop (and probably should work also on KitKat) by using the LG firmware exploit method.
This root method works on many LG devices, here’s a list of devices it should work on:
- LG G Flex 2
- LG G Flex
- LG G3
- LG G2
- LG F60
- LG Tribute
- LG MS395/D393
- LG L90
- LG Transpyre
- LG Volt (LS740)
If your device is not listed, do try it and let us know and we will update this list.
Before we begin, you will need a Windows computer to root your LG device.
Step 1. Go to Settings->About Phone->Software Info then hit on the “Build number” about 5 times until it says “You are now a developer”.
Step 2. Hit back button twice and now you should see “Developer options”, select it.
Step 3. Make sure “USB Debugging” is checked ON.
Step 4. Connect a micro-USB cable from your LG phone to your computer.
Step 5. Download LG_Root.zip and unzip the files. You should get a folder called “LG_Root” in your Downloads directory like shown below:
Download:
Step 6. Make sure you have proper drivers installed. Go to Device Manager and find “ADB Interface”. If you don’t see it, download LG Drivers and install it. Then you should be able to see it.
Download drivers:
Download LG G Flex 2 Drivers for Windows (Works for most LG devices including LG G Flex 2, G2, G3, etc…etc…)
For Verizon LG devices, download the Verizon LG driver instead!!!
Step 7. Open a command prompt then type:
cd Downloads
cd LG_Root
adb devices
Then unplug and plug the micro-USB on your phone until you see “Allow USB debugging” on the phone.
Select “Always alllow from this computer” then hit “OK”.
Type “adb devices” and you should see a serial number along with “device”. If you see this you are ready to rock!
Step 8. Next copy and paste the following:
adb.exe push busybox /data/local/tmp/ && adb.exe push lg_root.sh /data/local/tmp && adb.exe push UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp
For some reason, above code gets cut off, try copying and pasting this here:
adb.exe push busybox /data/local/tmp/ && adb.exe push lg_root.sh /data/local/tmp && adb.exe push UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp
Step 9. Power off your LG phone and unplug the micro-USB cable. Then WHILE HOLDING DOWN the Volume Up button, plug in the micro-USB cable. You should see “Downloading…”.
And after few seconds it should turn to “Firmware Update”.
Step 10. Next, double-click on “ports.bat” and read the COM number next to “DIAG1”. (Note, some users have reported you must do Right Click->Run As Administrator to get this step working although I didn’t have to.)
Step 11. Next, type:
Send_Command.exe \\.\COM24
But replace COM24 with the COM number you found in Step 10.
Then type:
sh /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox
Step 12. If you have an LG phone with removable battery, simply pull battery and put it back in. For phones without removable battery like the LG G Flex 2, hold down Volume Up and Power buttons together for 30 seconds until your phone reboots.
Step 13. Once rebooted, you should find SuperSU app in your app drawer and a fully rooted phone!
You can download and run Titanium Backup app to verify full root!
Congratulations, you’ve successfully rooted your LG G Flex 2 (or other LG smartphone) on Lollipop!
Don’t forget to root your sister’s, wife’s, brother’s, husband’s, and cousin’s LG phones!

So does this mean I can flash the same recovery image from kikat, and or use lg g3 tweaksbox app?
No, there’s no Lollipop recovery yet, we will have to wait. If you are on KitKat, better route is to just install stock ROM here using your recovery.
http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-stock-roms/
Any TWRP yet?? Onl Lollipop I mean??
great root. Thanks. Worked for me.
I have a rooted g3 on 4.4.2 can I flash this?…and does WiFi tethering work?
Yes you can use this but wifi tether is additional mod you will have to do, rooting by itself doesn’t allow wifi tether.
If my previously rooted phone upgraded to 5.0.1 can I follow these steps to make it rooted again?
Followed the tutorial. Everything seemed to be working pretty well. Now I’m stuck on the at&t logo and can’t seem to get out of it. Ideas?
have you tried doing a factory restart?
I was stuck at the LG logo for a bit… found that I mis typed something in the adb… When done with step 12 did you get the “inflating” everything?? If not try to re-type the commands
I was unable to make it work on Windows XP, but it did work on Win8.1. The .bat file paths are hardcoded for the newer win folder structure.
You can type “LEAVE” at step 12 in order to not pull out battery to reboot.
This was tested on LG G3.
Lg G3 D850
yeah so i follow all the steps and now im stuck on the at&t screen for opening. any suggestions?
well i can get it into download mode (firmware update) any idea what to do from their?
I am getting the error “failed to copy ‘UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip’ to ‘/data/local/tm’: Permission denied”
What can I do to fix this?
Solved my own issue…. I hadn’t unzipped the SuperSU folder.
When I double click ‘ports’ it says the system is unable to find the specified registry key or value. Any ideas, I’m on Windows 8
Not work for Tmobile G2. works until step 8, on step 9 never see downloading….Tried a few times still not work at step 9
did you ever solve this? I’m having the same issue on my ATT phone. Holding down volume up and plugging the USB cable in just brings up the LG logo for about 10 seconds, then it goes away. That’s all
You friggin rock fellas… donating in 3…2…1…
How do you perform step 11 on a mac?
I think it’s some sort of COM port command, there must be a Mac substitute.
Would this work from mac terminal:
./adb-mac shell /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox
Hi,
Will this work for D855? International model which is available in India?
Thanks,
Shekhar
Bro m frm India too…. Did it work without any bugs?
at step 10, when i click “ports.bat” no COM display. Why is it?
Hey brother, you have to right click on the ports.bat and run with admin rights 🙂
thank Kevin. However, the code inside “ports.bat” only show the available ports, admin rights does not effect here. You can open “ports.bat” by Notepad to check it.
I think the problem may relative to step 8.
My Phone is LG G2 F320. I found nothing in the registry HKLM\hardware\devicemap\SERIALCOMM
Please help
Did you ever get past this?
Thanks! it worked for my LG G3 D855!!
Will this work on 4.4.2 Verizon?? Just a simple yes/no is appreciated!!
Yes should work fine.
Does this trip q-fuse ???
I don’t think so.
Lg g3 d855.

You should type D: first. Then cd LG_Root
From where do i copy the commands?? its kinda confusing. .u never explain that part properly!!

when i enter in D:cd LG_Root it says device is not ready??
Thank you. Thanks to have rooted my G3.
Thanx very much… Successfully rooted my phone with no problems…
and yes its LG G3 (D855) …..
i get # at the last step means after
sh /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox
i get # again
how to go about ?
Same here. I’ve got the same issue, after typing “sh /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox”
I got “#” and nothing happens. Can anyone explain?
Thanks in advance.
Please see attached.
I had the same issue.
– Could it be that my phone is encrypted?
– This similar post said to install SuperSU first. Should it be installed or not? (http://www.reddit.com/r/LGG3/comments/2ydptk/workinghow_to_lollipop_root/)
I had the same issue. I need to decrypt my device.
After i enter the command sh /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox nothing happens. what should i do??
For Everyone stuck on step 11 to 12 what i did to fix my problem was. in the extracted LG_ROOT folder i extracted the SuperSu folder. Closed the Command Prompt window i had opened went into the extracted LG_ROOT folder Held shift and the right clicked in an open space (not clicking on any software or programs) then selected open command prompt from here then repeated step 11 and i now have root.
What COM settings is the Send_Command looking for to establish communications? It is unable to open the port when I attempt the command.
Here is a screen shot of my attempt. The second attempt with Send Command is after unplugging and reattaching the USB cable.
Try running the file as administrator, right click->run as admin.
I have run CMD as administrator still no luck.
Finally have root! I ended up using a different computer and it worked like a champ. I have the Android SDK on my main machine and I wonder if the versions of adb on my computer and the one included with the root package were having issues working together. Thanks so much for the procedure.

What is your software version Imad? in Settings-About Phone-Software Information-Software Version.
I have T-Mobile LG G3 D85110r, not sure if it would work with this version.

Funcionando perfeitamente no LG G3 brasileiro depois da atualização da LG para android lollipop. Muito obrigado meu amigo.
system can not find path
Does it work on a LG G3 S.?
What do I say ? How do I Say thanks to you ? Its SIMPLE AND AWESOME. IT WORKS. Thank you so much !!!
my phone is in a constant boot loop after this process. lg g2
Thank You! Awesome walk through. For those users stuck on Step 11, through trial and error, I found the problem that I encountered and a clunky work around.
I ran the command “sh /data………busybox” and nothing happened. No inflating, to ui_print. Nothing. So I typed LEAVE and rebooted. No SuperSU installed. Which was the case, nothing happened.
Turns out my phone was encrypted (corp IT policy) and you can’t modify system files when encrypted. So my clunky work around was to do a backup, factory restore, then rooted the phone, re-joined my work Exchange and then the encryption happened after gaining root and finally data restore.
Thanks again for the write-up and video!
OH MY GOD, it worked!!! Thanx man, really appreciate it, I was so fed up for not finding any root method for my G2 (with newly installed 5.0.1) now I have it you have me relieved of doing a manual (so difficult) root method! cheers, TC
lg tribute ls660 zv4 works thanks
Hi,
I have Lollipop 5.0 on LG-G3.
I ran all the steps perfectly receiving all expected screen responses both on Windows and on Android.
When I boot after step 12 (removing/placing the battery and power up), the phone is stuck on LG splash screen for more than 15 minutes, with the led flickering with green/blue as if booting up, but does not progressing into password screen or anywhere. Any thoughts?
After investigating it seems that have no choice but to re-install my ROM. That means full wipe. So chaps – if you plan to install this root, make good backups of your valuable photos, messages (SMS, WhatsApp etc.) and prepare yourself that something might go wrong and you’ll end up with a soft brick that will requires hours of setups to reinstate your original phone with a major loss of passwords and reorder of the screeens. What a waste of time!
I have the same problem. Any solution?
Hi Gaby, I have the same problem. Can you help me?
Unfortunately I had to flash my rom from scratch, but this occasion made me try Cyanogenmod 12, and it’s very good, although not completely stable just yet.
Works Perfect, Thanks
so… my LG G3 its crashed in the start… you can say why?
Hi, does this work using linux?
great job~
And how can we get this diag port to connect to qpst?
Works on LG g3 Verizon 4.4.2 with no problems.
Did you ever get past this problem?
I’ve got an odd problem on my G2: USB debugging is no problem (although I have to set it on PTP instead of MTP to get the dialog box).
Everything works through Step 9 — I’m able to run the adb commands, and I get to the Firmware Update screen.
But then it gets odd because ports.bat doesn’t find the device even though it shows up in Device Manager! So when I try Steps 11 and 12, nothing happens.
Any clue why ports.bat won’t find the phone? Everything else seems find, and I tried it in different USB ports on my computer. But no joy.
Help!
I have the same problem with no port showing up. Did you ever fix it?
Yes, but I don’t know if it will help you. It seemed to have been a setting in my PC’s BIOS that was preventing my USB ports from handling a serial connection. I turned on something like “USB legacy support” and it worked.
Hrm, that option was already enabled. Thanks anyway.
run as administrator when you click ports.bat
ive got the same problem. I have the lg g3 d850. I also have the (!) next to the device listed in Device Manager. Interesting… I’m going to reinstall the drivers. Running ports.bat as an administrator did nothing.
When you run ports.bat, does it tell you it can’t find the registry key??
I can get to step 9 but I have no DIAG1 for a COM port. While trying to solve it myself, I did notice that after I plug my phone in holding volume up, my device manager shows several devices with ! on them (CDC Serial, LGE Android Phone, and MTP USB Device). I’ve installed several drivers and it appears to be working before I start with the steps.
Running Windows 7 with 5.0.2 on LG G2. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know!
hello,
did you manage to get around this somehow? i’m running windows 10 and everything goes well up to stage 9. now i am in firmware update mode, but can’t continue. would really appreciate an answer….at least a safe way to get out of this mode would be great. many thanks if you’re able to help!
Did you ever figure it out? When I run ports.bat, it tells me it can’t find the registry key. Is that what happened to you? Were you able to fix it?
Everything was fine until i did that last command with the # and copied and pasted the command and nothing happned. I am not encrypted and on lg g2 5.0.2!!!! I rebboted and it said root access was not properly installed!!!
Dont copy the hash, # in linux basically means treat everything after as a comment and doesnt interpret it
Same EXACT THING happened to me just now. ;( help guys!!!
-LG G2 tmobile 5.0.2
(Improper root access on SU)
i was stuck on that too but i did it for like 3 times until i see the step 12 i waited for like 3 minutes and the cmd doesnt move so i made the step 12 NEED TO WAIT 30 Seconds
and the phone start showing a red light than rebooted and show “the sistem is inicializing” and then the supersu show it up :DDDDDD
u r damn god
Hey Max, FYI, It doesn’t seem to work on the VS980 Verizon version of the LG G2. Everything works fine up to 6:35 of the video which never runs as your video shows. This leaves the phone soft-bricked when you reboot it (it just shows the LG screen forever). I re-flashed the stock Lollipop ROM “VS98039A_05.kdz” using the LG Flash Tool 2014… 🙁 No harm, no foul! Hopefully another root exploit will be found soon for the Verizon LG G2… Thanks for the effort and the great video… 🙂
at the end just tipe LEAVE and it will reboot and thanks man for info 😀
IT WORKED!!!! on my LG G3 5.0.1
the only difference i had to make was putting,
./
at the beginning of everything and use windows powershell and go up in the top left and,
click on file and click on start powershell.exe
and also i wasnt able to use the && symbols so i seperated those commands like so..
./adb.exe push busybox /data/local/tmp/
and then
./adb.exe push lg_root.sh /data/local/tmp
and then
./adb.exe push UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp
and then after i found the “com” number by opening the port file i went back to the powershell typed in the next command with
./
at the beginning and DONE
What is your software version Nicole? in Settings-About Phone-Software Information-Software Version.
I have T-Mobile LG G3 D85110r, not sure if it would work with this version.
Thanks works on lg g3, would this work on nexus 5?
For nexus devices, use Nexus Root Toolkit. Just Google it. Worked perfectly on my nexus 7 Android 5.1
Great Tutorial Max, works great on LG G3.
can I root my Optimus G Pro F240S lollipop 5.0.1?
Every time I have the same problem “Can’t open the port” even using admin privileges, and I used other tools I have the same error, please help
Guys let me clear this out for you , you need to be on MTP MODE no PTP because you will not see the the right “COM” and you will stack when you are going to move on at “step 11” download the correct drivers that is a **MUST**
When in MTP mode, i don’t get the device listed in step 7. Any suggestions?
For my G Flex 2, hold Volume DOWN and Power Button for step 12.
Thank you very much, this worked like a charm 🙂
Thanks! Works on LG H440n.
After a lot of unsuccessful attempts to gain root, I downloaded busy box. Followed the instructions and gained root on my LG G3 version 5.0.1
please help.. I tried it on my LG G Tab v400 lollipop 5.02. it says it’s rooted but when i run an app that requires root access. it says that the device is not rooted.
Did it this morning and success. Mine is LG-D858HK dual SIM bought from Hong Kong last month.
Worked 100% for LG G Pad (V400) on Android 5.02 FOTA. Rooted
ok works perfect on LG G3 32gb.
At step 9 download mode is by holding volume up button and plug the mini usb(G3 users only)
I god emulator and localhost in the list of devices and I got error : more that one device and emulator
(LG G3)
I have just rooted my Lg G3 using this. Works perfectly. Shows it is rooted. However, when I try to use flashify to flash twrp recovery, it reboots, shows that boot certification has an error at the loading screen. The screen turns off and the led flashese red and blue. Is there a fix for this? My version of the LG G3 is D855. International.
And after few seconds it should turn to “Firmware Update”.
should something happen after this screen. looks like nothing is being updated even after 15 minutes. Continuing with the next steps does not result in an unrooted phone. LG G2
Kind regards
Working with LG G Pad 8.0(wifi)
im sorry but i keep stock on the Logo screen can’t do nothing…. pls help me
hiI’ve upduted my LG g3 to androide 5.0 and i have a problem with google accounts i ‘ve not access to google play why ?
Just wanted to know if anyone got it to work on T-Mobile LG G3 with software version: D85110r
Hasn’t been working for me…
Um, ports.bat this is what happens
C:UsersJacobDownloadsLG_Root>reg query HKLMhardwaredevicemapSERIALCOMM
ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
C:UsersJacobDownloadsLG_Root>pause
Press any key to continue . . .
This won’t do shit for me, every time I try the cd LG_Root it tells me can’t find specified path
it’s working for lg g3 d858
So I did this, but now it wont boot. It just stands at the LG , lifes good logo and “flashing”? Any ideas?
The exact same is happening to me
Hey guys, I didn’t have a DIAG1 but did have a DIAG3,so i used the port number provided from that. Did the rest of the operations like instructed. Got no errors at all and the last command line ended in a Done statement, so i figured it had worked. It, in fact, did not and i got in a bootloop. Fixed that with LG software but just wondering if anyone knows why i didnt have a DIAG1 and why using DIAG3 wasn’t a problem.
B.T.W. the com used with DIAG3 was the same as the LG repair software used, so i think that is not the problem. I’m ofcourse not sure since im new to this root method.
Got stuck on LG boot screen… any solutions? LG G3
Same phone, same trouble.
Yeah I had that problem as well, had to flash to kit kat and redownload all me apps, although I probably would’ve just done recovery mode had I known I’d have lost everything anyway
Same problem here
Disperation
A factory reset is enought?
I need only my phone working
same trouble! How can I fix it? please tell me something, soo frustate
Remove the battery. put the battery back into the phone and reboot the device. Its really simple and it should boot correctly. i kept my USB Cable plugged in the entire time. I rooted my AT&T LG G3 D850 doing this method and followed the steps entirely and it worked.
Worse…I’m stuck at the splash screen, and the phone will not boot.
I believe that I have just bricked the AT&T LG G3 (850) with this method. I would definitely not try to do this with one.
I have the same exact phone and i followed the steps correctly. i was on the “firmware update screen” and removed my battery. then rebooted and it booted fine and it is now rooted! Done with AT&T LG G3 D850
Same thing happened to me, doesn’t work, doesn’t do anything. Lg G2 D800 (AT&T version).
a mi me paso lo mismo con el d800 despues de insertar el ultimo comando, pero lo deje asi un momento luego lo reinicie y cuando encendio ya tenia instalado el SU.
OK…got it back to the firmware update screen…where do I go from here?
Any luck with D850[20f] (Build LRX21Y), AT&T?
i found the solution!!!
yeah what is it
Turns out its just out dated drivers. I tried everything on forums prior and nothing else worked, hope this helps.
Witch drivers the LG ones?
Yea, for instance I have a verizon lg g2, and downloading the drivers directly from their website fixed all the rooting problems.
Did it work for you?
Nope, can’t find any Telstra drivers anywhere. So I guess I’m just out of luck.
Just tried this on my LG G3 D855K android 5.0 Telstra Australia. Went through all steps all good. Removed battery switched on G3 now stuck on startup screen. Shame so wanted this to work. Now busy with LG Mobile Support Tool again….
Just tried it again same result……SW Version D85520F
HELP im stuck in boot logo, using LG g3 Please help. ASAP
Yes Same thing for me please help. I am also stuck in boot logo LG g2
The phone is bricked. Happened to me as well.
Not permanently. This exact same thing happened to me yesterday!
Follow a guide on how to unroot / flash STOCK LG ROM.
You should use a guide that involves using a program called LGFlashTool or something like that. I’m a beginner to rooting and I did it with ease.
Keep in mind this will WIPE your device. It will be like brand new.
I Think something happened, when I downloaded the adb thing it just acted like driver software, (I tried both) so in the middle of the command prompt something didn’t work and with the allow usb debugging for computer I already did that (u have no idea how much i’ve tried, for like a year). So plz help I have a LG G2 and a crappy (Like it almost crashed) Windows Vista Premiem. HELP MEEEEE
its volume DOWN and power to reset the LG flex 2
Thank you SOOOOOO much!
I have the solution for the ptp lg g2 port problen
Error at step 10, saying “The program can’t start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.” reinstalled twice now, and im stuck on step 10. PLEASE help.
Same here!
Help!!!
Same problem here too!!! someone just help!!
Hey Matt. I get the same error. Did you find a fix for this? I’m running VirtualBox(Win7) on OSX.
Many thanks in advance.
I noticed if you copy and pasted the line after step 8, it appears the copy isn’t getting the entire line of what’s supposed to be pasted in the command line…. I think this was the mistake I made…
Same thing ..got stuck on the boot screen.
I root my lg g3. Everything works until the last step. My g3 can’t turn on. It freeze on the LG starting screen. what can I do?
Same here….
I own a LG LEON H340 and this procedure to the rooter works beautifully
help my lg g3 vs985 is bricked and i cant figure out how to un brick it
mine did the same i’m currently downloading the stuff to do an un-brick/un-root procedure. If it works I will let you know
congrats but that wont help the guy above
Didn’t work on my LG G3 D851 from T Mobile… Stuck at t mobile screen…
(LG G3 D855)
Everything worked great, I followed everything to the smallest detail and have gotten to the boot logo, but my now my daily driver is probably bricked. 🙁
It is stuck on the LG Boot logo and the LED is cycling through blue and green.
I thought i would just let it sit since first boot could take longer but it is still stuck.
Please help because this phone is important to me as it is my daily driver.
yup me too.
yay….
same here except mine is stuck at verizon screen, HELP?
Mine was bricked. I had to wipe and restart. Once you do that, look up StumpRoot, wayyyy easier to root and i’ve used it twice sucessfully.
does this work on g2 as of 5.0.2? because that would be fantastic. I looked it up though and it says it was discontinued?
Yeap stuck at step 11. When You are trying to run Linux command at the Windows Command Prompt, what is TOTTALY NOT STUPID.
If your send_command.exe connected to the com port for the phone correctly, you’re actually executing those sh commands ON the phone.
Maybe You fucked up here Send_Command.exe \.COM24
i get through everything but at step 11 my device does nothing… whats the fix?
Tried unzipping SuperSU?
How do I do that?
It depends on your PC’s operating system. Usually when you right click the zip file you’ll have an option to unzip or extract.
Dude I fucking love you so much
Doesn’t work for me, did everything step by step got stuck in LG Logo loop like others have posted. In order to fix this you have to use LGflashtool and flash the stock .tot/.dll file, but change the action mode from “Upgrade DL” to “Board DL” then touch OK when screen pops up with AAT, and hit normal boot.
can you elaborate? im having the same issue. where would i get these .tot and ,dll files? does doing this wipe my phone?
Dude I’ve tried to comment how and for some reason my comment’s won’ get approved lol. e-mail me marsel.vcu@gmail.com
thanks, i ended up finding out i pretty much had to factory reset because of this guide.
You get the .tot and .dll files from his “how to unbrick your LG G3” tutorial in step 3. Go through that process but uncheck “Upgradl DL” and check “Board DL” then when your phone’s screen light’s up towards the end of the process, touch the screen even though it says not to and select “normal boot+”
im stuck at the firmware update.
after i reboot my phone at step 9 it shows firmware update but it just get stuck at 0% and does not increase
LG G3 b855 here
That’s normal, it’s waiting for you to send the updated information. Continue with steps 10 and 11 where you will actually send the data it’s expecting. After you sent it you will see
ui_print – Unmounting /system and /data
ui_print – Done !
#
in the console where you inputed step’s 11 line.
You can now remove the usb cable and restart your phone.
I can confirm i got my D855 device rooted with this method.
I did everything how you said, but it doesn’t work. When I reboot my phone, the SuperSU app doesn’t appear in the dock and any other apps that needs root access doesn’t run.
Hi Andre, I am experiencing the same issue. Have you been able to fix this?
for the love of God someone please help us!!!
Same exact problem
Im stuck step 11. I copied the text, but when i hit enter nothing happens
Me too here, I got a LG g2 D802

The same with me here in Brazil. the LG G3 is in startup mode only with the LG logo. What to do?
The same problem, please help
Did you guys fixed the problem?
the same problem here plllz help
Hello, the same problem in LG G2, do you have any solution? my phone dont work any more. Thanks you
for the lg g2 you dont need all of this. You can easily root your android just with your android without a computer. for example: stump root app but there are many others.
Stump root is kit kat
Congratulations. You’ve all bricked your cell phones.
hold down volume down and power button instead of vulme up and power max lee lied
Tips from a noob thats been rooting since OG EVo..if you copy and paste, make sure you look at the screenshot to make sure nothing was cut off. CMD must be run with Admin, or will not copy SuperSU. Follow the directions!!I kept hitting the power and volume, which made the phone start up. Files are copied to tmp, so if the phone turns on for any reason, start over. Took me a few tries to get over my own stupid,
Step 9 just will not do
I try this on my lg d415 and brick happent
Looks like it doesnt work anymore? It worked month ago but now it stucks at LG logo…
stuck at step 8… when i copy it it says cannot stat busybox : no such file or directory.. help?
Well this guide sucks just Soft Bricked my phone! You sir are an asshole!

Thank you!

my cat closed the cmd window when i was at step 11 and now my phone wont go from firmware update. plz help
g2 d800 at step 12, need to wait for 30s, the red light show up few times then release the buttons
I Found A Fix that doesn’t require a factory reset after your phone screen gets stuck on the logo, basically go back to step 9, after unplugging your usb once more and while your running the cmd hold the volume up button and plug in your usb. repeat the steps from 9 to the end and once your phone starts up again be patient, it will take about a minute or so and it will say android is upgrading, then you will have superSU on your phone. Glad i can help, let me know if this helped you.
How come you have mac and linux files in there but don’t say how to do it on either of those systems?
Does this method work on a Mac?
What happened to root AT&T LG G3 with Mac?
I’m having trouble getting my phone to enter download mode. I just got through the 1st cmd prompt section. I don’t think the phone’s rooted yet and it definitely isn’t bricked. For some reason it’s just not entering download mode. Any help?

Wow, I just created an account just to comment oh here…
THANK YOU! At first I was disappointed because it did not work. After reviewing the comments and comming to the conclusion that you did not mention a step, I went ahead and “risked” it. OH VIOLA!
LG G2 LS980ZVG has been rooted, thank you!
Great tutorial Max. Just wondering if it comes with TWRP, or do i have to flash it separately? Thanks for any help.
i rooted my lg g3 and after i rebooted my device the supersu wasnt installed 🙁 what should i do
Im having the same issue. Everything goes fine during the process but upon reboot SuperSU is not there. Not sure what to do here
Thank U. The only one post that help me to root my LG G3 D855 lollipop 5.0! Thank you again for great explanation and links…
Worked for me without a glitch. Thanks!
Hello Max I have been checking out your excellent tutorials. I have spent days trying to get Lollypop on my Verizon i535 so that I can use it on Android Auto. I have tried a number of different tutorials all I have been able to do is soft brick my phone a number of times. I wonder if there is one generic set of instructions to go from a stock phone to one with CM12.1 booted up on Lollypop. What I would like to know is what type of files need to be installed and in what order. I can then search the procedures to install.
Hi. I am getting an error at step 11 that says: System_Command.exe – System Error “The program can’t start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.”
I have confirmed that the .dll file is in my System32 folder and restarted my computer to no avail. Can you please provide some guidance.
thanks in advance.
I wasnt on Lollipop yet. Used stumproot to root in kitkat (I think), then installed Lollipop. Now about to root in lollipop.
I have the same exact error. I’m using a VM within OS X. Could that be the reason?
How do I do this on a Linux? I saw that there were linux files.
I have rooted successfully but my phone won’t update to the latest Android version….I was going to try installing stock firmware for the LG G Flex2 but having trouble finding it online. Any ideas where to look?
thanks! worked fine on my lg g2 5.0.2

i tried it on my lg g3 and it didint work
awesome! success!
I’ve done everything exactly how it’s sited above. I have LG G3 D690 running 5.0.2 . When I checked for root it says my phone is still not rooted. Can you help ?
when i open command prompt and type cd LG_Root it says the system cannot find the path specified
Keep having the same issue over and over again.. I have the AT&T LG G3 (850) running on Lollipop 5.0.1 and I follow all the steps to a T. After step 11, all I see is:
ui_print *******************
ui_print SuperSU installer
ui_print *******************
ui_print – Mounting /system, /data and rootfs
ui_print – Extracting files
ui_print – Disabling OTA survival

There is no inflating process as shown in the picture and my phone does not install SuperSU and does not get rooted.. I’m running the command prompt as Administrator and my phone is not encrypted… ANY SUGGESTIONS??
Hi Jon,
Did you ever get this figured out? I have the same problem.
Same here D851 followed all steps correctly, no super su installed, so i installed it thjrough play store. no root detected.
I like to know…I have H950 for At&t anyone want to give me a fair warning not to root it?? Please?
My G2 from Verizon is only recognized as an adp device if it is in (PTP) mode. Everything works fine until I manually put my phone into downloading mode. Once it is on the “firmware update” screen, my computer no longer recognizes the device as an adb device. I can’t use the “ports.bat” function, and I can’t continue the process.
how do i do this using mac? to be exact how do i do step 8 onwards on mac
my verizon lg g3 goes through the whole process and it says “done” but when i reboot my phone it is not rooted i am running on android 5.0.1 and drivers are installed. Any help?

Is there a way to root my LG G PRO 2 on Lollipop without a PC? because I have a MacBook…
idk y but my tmobile lg g3 wich I recently updated to lollipop wont root at all this is the 3rd method ive tried but it wont root can I get some help?
Successful root on LG US550 (LG Logos-US Cellular).
Mine is LG G3 with Android 5.0. I did root it this way. If you are stuck at step 9 dont worry . Just continue with other steps as Instructed and you will be fine. It will be Rooted. Check with Rootchecker from app store.
Everything works fine! (5.0) 🙂
I have a Sprint LG G3, model LS990ZVA, running Android 5.0.1. Did everything exactly according to the instructions above. Everything worked exactly like the screenshots, and Supersu was installed on my phone, however, my phone is NOT ROOTED. I installed Root Checker and it’s showing that the phone isn’t rooted, root-required apps don’t work either. I’m at a loss, I’ve tried every rooting method I can find to no avail. I don’t want to wipe my phone, but I’m tempted to wipe it and downgrade so I can use stumproot.
When I check the ports for the G3 the I get a DIAG3 instead of a DIAG1. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks alot, appreciate the work you put into this.
I followed your instructions step by step and..surprise … it worked without any problem. Took maybe 5 minutes, and my Flex 2 is now ready for Xposed (hopefully this will work on the Flex 2^^)
I followed all the steps and everything goes smoothly, but when I check the root with the “Root Checker Basic” app, it tells me that my phone has not been rooted. I have the D855 model running lollipop 5.0
Confirmed ,
LG Magna / H502f root working!
you need to start including a method for mac users. becasue this is utterly useless to me. No offense. Thanks….
Hi there! I’d like to root my G3 running lollipop 5.0 and this method seems great for me but I only have access to Mac OS computer? Any suggestions?
Computer won’t show ADB Devices in my device manager. Downloaded it from many different places. Also won’t ask for debugging permissions @ step 7. Help?
I have LG G3 D855, I did everything you did and everything said successful but i have no SuperSU app on my phone, can anyone help?
Worked like a charm. Finally a method that worked for my T-Mobile LG G2 running on Lollipop! 😀
It doesn’t work x) when i try the step 11. I have any download on the cmd. Who can help me?

Does anyone have any advice on rooting and LG G4 F 500S ?
THanx dude 🙂
how to unroot to get OTA update?
You don’t have to unroot to get ota’s only have stock recovery and rom installed. You will loose root after update. If you still don’t want roit, go into the super su settings and click on the unroot button
I did all procedures and worked well my LG g2
Thank you so much

i tried to do it but the done thing did not come and my phone did not root…

same issue here….. not sure why ?_?
same as me, anyone know the issue? i have verizon lg3
Same here 10/09/15
Everything went fine but no SuperSU app and it looks like did not root.
Also have LG G3 Verizon.
The phone did restart OK.
my software version <<<>>>>> same prob… plzz help.
Yep, same issue here as well. LG G3 ATT D850 Android 5.0.1. The required files are not extracted. I tried looking for the files on my device, but couldn’t find them. Thought if I could copy them over manually to the proper location, I could try again. Anyone know how to find the correct location on the device?
Same problem on my Flex2 LG-H955 rev.1 build LMY47S version V15c-EUR-XX
The required files are not extracted.
I tried a hundred times, nothing works.
As I looked directly via command on my phone there was no extraction folder, but all copied files via adb.exe.
So I think the extraction on my device do not work.
Any ideas to solve this problem? Thanks.
same issue…LG D850 5.02
we miss the extracting files detail on the log.
same issue here
Same issue here. I saw Done! but couldn’t see Supersu.
Same issue have, Is there any solutions ??
I have the same problem. However, after repeating the process and leaving my phone connected longer before restarting it, SuperSU is in my app drawer. When I open it, though, I receive a message stating there is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. Any ideas on what can be done to get this working properly?
Having the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?
adb is not a recognized command. In other words, I cannot even complete step 1.
Edit: I had to use . adb
Edit 2: When I hold volume up and plug in the USB cable, it goes to the Firmware Update screen but remains at zero percent process. Nothing I do causes it to progress. I remove the battery and repeat the process, to no avail.
Trying your guide on the LG G2, and i get to the firmware update screen. Is it supposed to take a while to even make it to 1%? the program you also have listed as an option is unable to find the port after reboot at 75% Then in step 9 i never see downloading all i see is download mode and then it goes to the firmware update screen where it never makes progress.
everything seems to have worked fine except nothing at all changed phone works as if i never touched it and i had to download super su and it says not rooted missing su binnary, anyine have this problem or now how to fix it
mine went through all steps successfully but it didn’t root
i have tried this method on lg g3 d850 an nothing :<
any advice ?
Stop at this stage in LG G3S Beat lollipop 5.0.2

Hi.. Do you have Custom ROM for G Flex 2?
What is the Best so far for you?
salamat 🙂
Hi. I am using LG G3. I don’t quite fully understand the basic reasons for rooting but it looks cool. My one reason to do it is because I want to use Android 5.1.1 on my G3 which is currently running on 5.0. can I do that ?
You can flash custom rom after rooting. Theres no stock rom 5.1.1 for G3
Titanium Backup tells it has no root access…. shows some error.
SuperSu asks for some binary crap… what to do? I’m using Tmobile G3 with lollipop 5.0.1
I followed all the steps to success, but still without root access….. please help
every time i do this tutorial it does root my phone
dosent*
This is a bad guide, not for newbies. You skip over steps you may think are trivial but will confuse new comers to rooting. Please make this guide more considerate to a wider audience.
sooooo. will this work with sprints 5.0.1 update? ive done this 3 times got trough it all the way but it wont root. just wondering if what one of the other users said about missing installation files compared to your command lines after the # sh command
After typing cd Downloads it says system cannot find the path specified
Awesome thanks it worked!
If anyone needs help I could be able to, well, help.
My PC wont run “Send_Command.exe \. COM3” because it claims that “MSVCR100.dll” is missing. I’ve searched through System32 to find it and I’ve found two copies so I know it’s there. The question is, how to get the command to run?
How to root on 5.1.1
Lg g3 d850 5.0.1…I can get all the way to step11, but when I copy and paste for supersu, nothing happens any thoughts?
How to Update SU-Binary
This is the 4th method I’ve tried (VS985), all with the same result. Once I get to the last step, I get a simple FAIL message. Is this because I am running 5.1.1? Is there a method that will allow for 5.1.1 or do I hae to downgrade my software first? I’ve rooted successfully twice before, idk why it’s not working this time. (I like to mess with my phone a lot lol)
This is the same problem I’m having now. Is it because we’re running 5.1.1? I don’t know where the path is either to find out what file the command is referencing either…
I’m following your steps, but when I disconnect USB cable my LGG3 and then plug it back in, computer does not recognize it because USB Tethering turns off and has to be manually switched back on, which I cannot do when the Firmware Update screen is on. The Firmware Update screen appears but does not update. I pulled the battery and turned on and all is good, but can’t get beyond this step. Any suggestions?
Didn’t work. 0/10 – would not recommend.
this is such a long-drawn method – just search for the 2-minute root process
nice, this worked. But for lg g flex 2 you have to hold volume down+power button to reboot your phone.
I can’t do step 9 🙁 when i press Volume up and i plug in the cable, my phone start charging.
Please help me.
LG G2
Can anyone confirm that this works on the sprint variant of the LG g Flex 2?
Hi Max Lee, Whats up Man, Please Update the download link of LG_ROOT. It’s not working on my Side. Thanks !
Thanks! Seems to have worked for me, I found the SuperSU app.
I got this working on my LG G3 F400L, thank you
Hi I just got a LG G2 and I get to step 11 and I past in the command and it does not look like it does anything. I do not get any messages saying that it’s inflating, it just returns another #. Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks
Doesn’t work…. LG D851 (T-Mobile)
Hi, my phone (LG G Flex 2) stays on Firmware Update stays on Firmware Update at 0%, it seems it won’t reboot.
Any help?
LOL
Well i guess i should have read the comments section as i like everyone else here got “success” but then no root
The method works for LG Leon H320 LTE. However, must add two precisations: first, your device must be in PTP mode (not MTP or only charge, they won’t work); second, the dowload link on this site is down.
Beware: the installation may require a lot of time
Can it work on LG G flex 2 that has android 5.1.1?
Will this work on lg g flex 2 Marshmallow? I dont know how to downgrade it ;/
I need help.! I’m at the end of rooting my lg v20 I open cmd, type cd Downloads, when I type cd fastboot it says sytem cannot find the path specified..! PLEASE HELP ME MAX. I’ll do anything.!
When I try to run the Send_Command.exe \.COM24 , it just says error, (replaced com24 with com3)
If you’re having problems, try extracting all files into a new folder which you will afterwards name LG_Root and also extract supersu and place it in there as well. After that, try SHIFT + Right Click and then open command prompt here. It worked for me with the lg g flex 2 but it won’t show me the supersu app, trying to see if I have root right now.
When I run ports.bat, it says “Unable to find the specified registry key or value.” – I have been trying for 3 days to get this darn phone rooted, and no matter what, I always slam head first into some kind of major issue. I’m starting to think this phone is unrootable. 🙁 Anybody have any suggestions?
I have an LG G2 (Verizon) VS9803aa 5.0.2
I’ve LG G Flex 2 H955TR android 5.1.1 I wanna root my phone but it doesn’t work for root 🙁
I have an LG LS990 ZVC (Sprint). running android 5.0.1. After many attempts using one click routines and now this site. I have come to the conclusion that something in one the three files pushed in the first step cause the LS990 to block communication. After disconnecting the phone, pull battery and attempt to go into download the phone does not respond. I think the phone is headed for e-bay as a sprint phone.
Did not work on Sprint LGG3, Never inflated files. Anyone else with same issue?
LG LS990 Android 5.0.1, Security patch level 11/01/2016, Kernel Version 3.4.0, build LRX21Y, SOFTWARE V. LS990ZVG, SECURITY SOFTWARE V MDF v1.1 Release3
I’m Running 5.0 on D855. The process goes smoothly all the way. However it simply isn’t rooted after reboot. No SuperSu, and Root checker says “Your device isn’t properly rooted”. Anyone has an idea what is going on?
Hi. I have problem in STEP 9. When i push Volume Up button and plug in the micro-USB cable my Gflex2 write : Secure boting Error
