With a little more reading, you could have found the same information on the front page of the Development section, but here...

Use the non-rooted version you have (hopefully with your laf.img still there) and LG Flash Tools with the 20b kdz for lollipop. Then after upgrading, root using the information in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3072568

i had it rooted but it was buggy on lollipop, i rooted it and it kept rebooting and hanging on the boot logo for tmobile until i rebooted and unrooted with super su. i used the mehod that roots your lg g3 g2 etc
Glad to hear you got it worked out.

If you're on gingerbread. Search for Megatron root in this forum. Otherwise ICS is out and is easily rooted.

this you will need: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144738 (use this to flash recovery/bootloader)
this is what i used after the completed above step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903752 (this is for root) (worked on my thrill) (it does root but super user doesnt show in menu)
this is how i got mine to root I was first stuck till trying this but sometimes it may take twice for it to work a good way to see if Super user is working is to download something like WiFi tether this is how i knew this method i tried to work I have official ICS on my phone
here you go...

I seem to have gotten over my head here being fairly new to android in general but wanting to try out all the new stuff lol.
Basically, I updated my LG G2 with the Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant but after updating proceeded to screw up a few system files in the process. The kicker is I didn't know that installing this update was going to remove my TWRP custom recovery!
So now... It seems I am stuck with a buggy kitkat and cannot reinstall it because
- my custom recovery is gone and it seems that I can't reflash it do to my being on kitkat (24a)
- Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant won't upgrade the phone again because in it's view I have the latest and greatest.
- using factory reset doesn't seem to be fixing the underlying issue of system files being corrupted but simply wipes user data and apps.
What am I to do? Am I doomed to have a buggy phone until CWM or TWRP support LG G2 so I can install a ROM?
Or is there something I can do to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
If you still have root, you can use this, AutoRec - KitKat Recovery Installer
http://forum.xda-developers.com /showthread.php?t=2715496
If you do not have root it would be best to start fresh by following this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45694605
Then use IORoot to root your phone, thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48709232
After rooting use AutoRec-Kit Kat Recovery Installer and you will be good to go.
Hope all this helps.

I believe it can be rooted used towelroot, but I don't think you can flash anything yet. Hopefully it'll change soon.
Thank u but it said it dont support my phone

Ah, I think there is one called stump too.
yup stump root which coincidentally lead to g3 getting a workaround for the bootloader which also awesome lead us to get both stump root is out an works i just used it not even a week ago an a bumped recovery an roms will follow shortly
Thank u...

Stump works already.
See here http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-flex/general/how-to-root-d950-kk-4-4-2-f-firmware-t2915517
I know I've seen some info that root is lost on the Flex if you upgrade to 4.4.2 and wanted to get confirmation on that. Does towelroot work on 4.4.2 or is it basically impossible to achieve root? Thanks
It Works

Hello, i'm new in this forum and i haven't flashed so many roms before.
in this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...w-to-update-to-g870aoc5-5-0-keeproot-t3083841
they use flashfire to install lollipop rooted rom into G870A devices.
but i have a problem, i followed the steps to receive flashfire beta on my device but i never got it, i asked in g+ page to someone to share me the apk containing flashfire beta (the version that is required to do this), but he said me i have to change the date of my phone to july 1st because the app does not open at all, and it is true, by changing the date i was able to open the app, but i;m not sure about using it because i thing it is not the right version and i thing i can damage my device.
Can i use twrp instead? or is it safe to use the apk he shared to me?
Thanks
Much to the dismay of almost everyone here Twrp will not work on our locked bootloader phone.

You havd at&t s5 active ,at&t locked the bootloader thats why we can't use custom recovery like twrp cwm . if u r in 4.4.2 kitkat i think u can use safestrap recovery..that process will install 5.0 rooted lollipop .i use the same process to update my att s5 to lollipop ..download the file flash through flasfire..

thanks! i'll ty that i hope it works.
but before trying this i, does anyone successfully installed the last flashfire beta? please would you share the apk, i would prefer using that since the tutorial looks very easy, im new using those kind of tools
I just used the latest beta to flash from rooted 4.4.4 to 5.0.1 Of3 without issue.

my problem is that i were not able to receive beta, does the latest google play public release work?
