Does this or does this not work on Verizon 12B? At the top it says "10B. Blocked on 10C and up.", but in the changelog it says added support for Verizon 12B.
Thanks.
Thanks.

[ROOT][IOroot] LG G3 4.4.2 Jailbreak [D850|D855|F400|VS985][Yahooo!]
- Thread starter autoprime
- Start date
My phone does NOT work so I'm not sure why the change log states 12B.
What was upgraded, fixed, etc from 10B to 12B? Not really a fan of downgrading.
There is no root for 12b, period, end of story.
You have to flash back to 10b to root for vzw.
I have an LG G3 Vigor. I know is not the same as a LG G3 but I was able to actually get on recovery but no success in rooting. 
Well, I guess no developer is going to touch this phone... So why keep asking for a root?
Forget it, this is not worth my time to look around here or any other tool for the LG G3 Vigor if I do not have an LG G3...

"I had the same problem and this solution worked for me too :
Thanks for the great work!
adb devices didn't list the G3 in MTP USB mode and hence no RSA key acceptance popped up. I had to switch the USB mode to PTP. Please add this hint to the guide, would have saved me half an hour... thanks!"
Thanks

Confirmed working on Canadian D852 4.4.2. Probably the easiest root I've done since the Galaxy S2.

With reduced popularity comes reduced demand. It's always possible a dev will work on one in the future, especially since the G3 series is current-gen. However, being a less popular device it will take time.
It should also be stated that the G3 and G3 Vigor, despite their similarities, should be treated as completely different devices (because they are). This means that nothing for the G3 should be expected to work on the Vigor.

Code:[B][FONT="Arial Narrow"][B][SIZE="4"]About IOroot[/SIZE][/B] IOroot was originally a Windows script to root the LG G2 on 4.2.2 [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887"]made by IOMonster[/URL]. It was based on the original adb backdoor found by GiantPune and later [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169117"]posted by jcase[/URL]. The script has grown to support various other LG devices on Android 4.0 - 4.4.2... Supported devices include LG Optimus G, G2, G3, G Pro, G Pro 2, G Flex and G Pad just to name a few. 4.4.2 recovery root [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51507049#post51507049"](kk_root.zip)[/URL] by autoprime. [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48709232"]IOroot 12 +[/URL] by autoprime.[/FONT][/B]32guys.. my comment about sprint root was a joke to see how much interest there was in the root and see what kinda reactions there'd be.
BUT.. some of the guys working on this need g3 devices... for root.. for unlock... for future exploits down the road...
root for any unrooted G3's will come.. I can promise that. But.. it will most likely not be an update to ioroot specifically.. and I may not be the one to post...
SO..
the couple users who did donate for a future Sprint G3 root.. I will be refunding. But I do thank you for your enthusiasm. hold onto it and use it when root IS posted to ensure the G3 continues to see great work(moar r00t? moar unlox? moar hax? r0mz.. zzz). there is a great group of ppl poking at this.. but as i mentioned.. we all dont have G3's.. and some will have to buy out of pocket.. just for the sake of hacking and contributing to community. I think I've slept a total of 8 hrs the past 3 days(not complaining!).. trust me.. this is being looked at and worked on.
keep your eyes on our twitters... @ tylerfixer (iomonster/thecubed/insertnamehere) .. @ teamandirc (jcase) .. i dont think shelnutt2 or beaups use twitter.. and me @ utoprime
keep the assumptions to a minimum.. and please be patient(no not "months" patient)..
and who knows.. maybe someone new will step up and surprise us all.16
4.4.2 method should work for any G3 that can be booted into stock recovery. "adb reboot recovery" should take you to a stock recovery screen with a menu. If you get an Android figure with an error this 4.4.2 root will not work for you.
Anyone with a G3 that is not a F400 please test IOroot25r1 on your phone and report if you can get into the stock recovery menu and if you can root your phone!
LS990 is Sprint's G3, VS985 is Verizon's G3, D850 is AT&T's G3, D851 is T-Mobile's G3, D852 is Canada's G3, and D855 is International.11
asking for ETA's is completely out of the question considering no one is paying these guys to do jack ....
It will release when it releases!!!!!!!!11 Until then I high suggest those with ants in their pants and no restraints on their mouth/fingers chill out and wait quietly and patiently!!!
Badgering devs about releasing things tend to piss them off and feel unappreciated for the time they spend on this stuff.
