Just confirmed with my international D855 unit.
Works flawlessly. Tested with Root checker and Titanium backup.
Still dazed as to how this works... possibly the fastest root method ever! :good:
To unroot do u just need to do a reset? This works on uk model g3 with 2gb ram?

warranty still void tho I guess? I'm wanting to root really badly, but holding off as long as I can in case of problems as phone is litteraly hours old

Not with my rooted phones - any that died or had faults have always been fixed under warranty - going right back to the 'Hero'. If I buy a brand name Windows PC, wipe the hard disk and install Linux, the manufacturer still has to honour their hardware warranty under EU law. Same with mobiles/phones/tablets.Rooting has always voided warranty. .. There were just ways to return it to stock like it was never rooted.
Sucessfully rooted my D855 using Towelroot as well.Tested with root checker and adblock to verify it's working.
One problem I had was when I installed SuperSU,it says need to have binary updated.However,when I clicked "Normal"..it says installation failed?
To unroot, can somebody install SuperSu and try to uninstal root pls?

Yup.. likewise with SuperSU.
I uninstalled it and never bothered with it
Doing so removes your root access (as you expect) but your device will still refuse to install OTA's

Alright.. I decided to try it again and now SuperSU works flawlessly.
I think you need to reboot and run it again. This time for me, it didn't ask me for a binary update. Just started working. Try it.
Towelroot installs busybox,stericsson, witch can't be uninstalled without recovery it seems. It still there after a factory reset.
Question. On the G2 you could put the phone in download mode and tell the lg tool to restore after a failure and it would download a new firmware and do a real factory reset, this doesn't seem to be working with the G3. Anyone got it to work?
