Maybe is not the thread to ask, but seeing that you have XPOSED working already, I wanted to know, how most of usual XPOSED mods are working for you? GravityBox and Tinted Statusbard for example, how are they working on your G3? I'm really used to them on my Nexus 5 and since I will probably get a G3 when an Internarional version is released in US I'm really interested in your answers!

Thanks!

gravitybox is working excellently , all my mods i used on the htc one m7 are running without issues. I cant say i ever used " Tinted Statusbard " before, but xposed misc modules / downloads searches works as you would expect, run the root method above, install xposed, and enjoy.


the one caveat i guess i should mention is that no custom recovery / backup has been run. So, install at your own risk,

Great! Thanks for answering!

I don't have a G3 yet so I guess by the time I get one there will be a custom recovery that works.

Thanks again!

Hey guys I have just rooted my G3 with towelroot, when LG software updates come up I press update and it always say cannot update due to phone being rooted. Is that normal? my first time rooting a phone.

Hi guy's

I just got my G3 yesterday and I want to root it but it's still currently on 4.4.2. Do you think it's worth just waiting for 4.4.4 and then rooting?

 

[Fentadroid]

I can root using towelroot but it's not still possible to install a custom recovery... right?

Maybe the 4.4.4 update is a security****patch to block towelroot

Yeah, I've got it enabled also on a d855, is all working but the difference between ART and dalvik is minimal, haven't really noticed anything maybe a couple less stutters switching between various apps

Does towelroot wipe your phone? Thanks!

What does ''untethered root'' means?

 

[Indurus]

I have three questions to you guys who already rooted the G3 with towelroot:
Does a factory reset unroot the G3 again and makes possible to install OTA Updates again? How can I perfom the factroy reset without a custom recovery? Do I have to install SuperSU (or something equivalent) after using towelroot?

+1 on this.

I'm new to LG devices and wasn't sure how to get OTA updates after rooting.
