[Q] Xposed / OTA update - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey! I'm about to root my device with towellroot apk (international 32Gb version).. If I install the Xposed Framework and install some modules.. once android L update will be avaible, will I be able to download it OTA?
Because I had a nexus 5 and when I installed Xposed and some modules and once 4.4.3 was avaible.. I unistalled everything and I still couldnt do the OTA update.. It gave me an error during installation and I don't want that to happen again with my new G3...
Thanks!

Most likely you'll need to unroot by installing the stock ROM before updating.

Sorry, I'm still waiting for Sprint to ship me my P_(*^$P() phone!! And since towelroot doesn't work on Sprint, I won't be able to help even then.

Root now or wait for Lollipop?

Just got my LG G3 D858 (Dual Sim) yesterday.
Just wondering, LG will release Lollipop soon right? should I root now or just wait for the 5.0 update?

I would root right now while you have the chance and install a custom lollipop rom.
After the official lollipop gets released by LG it will lock your bootloader, If you already have it unlocked.
Also it's rumored that root may not work on the G3 after the official lollipop update.

Thanks for the advice.
Yeah im planning to root now.. problem is.. I dont think other ROMs would work for the D858 variant. (Dual Sim)
Is it possible to get OTA while being rooted?

I think CloudyG3 1.2 -=- [All Variants] might work for you as a custom rom, He hasn't released lollipop version yet, It's still on 4.4.2 for now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-cloudyg3-1-0-t2917467
But when he does release the lollipop version it will be rooted!! and you will still have your bootloader unlocked!!
This is the rom I'm waiting for on my D852 since I'm pretty much in the same boat as you when it comes to not much development for my model.
You will lose root or bootloop if you OTA while rooted.
I've seen a lot of people get their G3's stuck in a bootloop from accepting a OTA while bootloader is unlocked too.
Personally I would just avoid any OTA's for now and stick with stock 4.4.2 or a custom rom, I'm itching to try lollipop too, sooo bad. but it's not worth being locked down!!

Try and us towel root ( Towelroot.com ) worked like a charm for me. Its from Geohot who is a very well respected hacker in Android , iOs and he is the one who jailbroke the PS3 originally.

Yeah, it's because you have the 11c software instead of the stock 10b. You need to flash the original firmware. Google xda g3 stock 10b and you'll find out how to do it.

just look for your specific stock firmware. There are threads on xda showing you which roots work on which versions.

yup. I saw the spreadsheet file, stumproot is suppose to work, but I did an OTA update, which patched my device.
I've already contacted the dev, hopefully he can help me out.

Dont even bother with that. Find your stock firmware and put your phone into download mode and use LG Flash Tool to flash to stock. Try googling what I just described, and you will be able to root to your pleasure.

Thanks for your help guys. I was able to downgrade and root successfully.
After rooting, there's an OTA available. Will I lose root if i install OTA?
I'd root now, the rooting is so easy nowadays.

LG G3 Lollipop (D85010f)

Hello Respected Members,
I've searched a lot about my issue of g3 but can't find the solution or right answer. So I've an AT&T LG G3 which is great no doubt but I saw on the official site of AT&T that they've released the lollipop update for LG G3 on February but when I checked update through mobile it say's I've latest version of software which is 4.4.2. Software information is below
Android version : 4.4.2
Baseband version : MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13.00009-M8974AAAAANPZM-1
Kernel version : 3.4.0
Build number : KVT49L.D85010f
Software version : D85010f
One Thing More, I've zero info about rom, cutrom rom, bootloader,etc
so I really appreciate if any one help me with this that is my phone have any root access or lollipop hasn't arrived for my phone yet?? I saw there is no SU here in my phone not in hidden applications also.
Please help me with this as all people around the world has solved their queries about their phones here....>
THank You!!
Help Me Please...!
Did you ever disable OTA? 3845#*850# < WLAN Test < OTA Settings < Enable
Here's the guide and TOT if you want to install that way.
You need a valid and working AT&T sim plugged in in order for the OTA to show up
Otherwise if you can manually find the lollipop OTA package for AT&T you can also apply it using the adb method
Highly recommend you do not use the TOT method to apply the update. Countless people have hard bricked their phone because of some random error that occured and its not worse the risk
I've checked and enabled the ota setting but didn't showing any update......
is there any easy way to manually install officially lollipop update in my mobile without rooting my mobile...??

Then you cant update it since noone has captured the OTA package
Why didnt you originally get the D855 edition instead?

OTA updates/notifications with root?

Hi!
I have rooted after installed A5CN51C fw, is it the latest version? I'd like to know if I will be notified when new version is available, or if root has stopped it?
Best regards
I rooted while on build A5CN507 and I got the OTA update notification for build A5CN51C. But since I've rooted, can't apply the update.

Ok, good to know!

A5CN701 is available after root today! Should I update it since its 5.1.1 Android!!! Will it remove my root?

No, you SHOULDN'T! Currently there's no method to root and install Gapps on the N1 on Android 5.1.1! If you don't want any trouble, don't update it!

xposed?

What @Saafir said and we are Arm64.
I didn't know we needed some sort of unofficial version of Xposed for the Sprint S6. A couple of weeks ago all I had to do was download the latest Xposed and flash it with TWRP and it worked like a charm.
EDIT: lol gosh, nevermind. I chose the latest "wanam" version, that's why it worked.
Thanks for the inout from everyone!
Now, what modules are you all running? I have taken youtube adaway. Nit sure what else to get. Lookibg for battery life and UI mods.
Also, wheb i try to reboot via framework, it gives me a busybox error. Should I try to install busybox from the app store and then try?
