Hello everyone,
I have bought a LG G3 T-Mobile D851. I want to remove pre installed T-Mobile apps from my phone. I am new in Flashing/boot loader. Can anyone guide me how to do it?
I want to make my phone clean from useless apps.
Awaiting for your responses.
Thank you
Arfarsh
Best way is to root your phone & install a custom ROM without all the bloatware TMo put in. Plenty of how-tos in this forum, you need to spend some time & search & you will find what you need.

hello all. I've rooted my past phones, and used custom ROMS.
I'm wondering if it's possible to just root my S3, but keep the stock Rom on it? i think it's fast, and I'm quite happy with it!
I'd like to be able to remove some of the bloat programs, and be able to do backups via titanium.
Is this possible?
Would i be able to do samsung ROM updates with ease?
would this void my warranty?
Could someone guide me to the right guide to accomplish this task?
Thanks for your time, and assistance!

Of course you can root your phone and stay on the stock rom, that's where your at after every root! Just don't flash a rom, your not forced to. You will probably have to unroot to apply updates, but I think there's an app in the play store to temporarily unroot the phone, or disable super user & busy box? Your correct on using TB to remove bloat, and there's a thread somewhere in general about what's safe to remove, and it's also best to make a back up before you remove anything just in case. There are guides in the development section on how to root, or for a video tutorial go to galaxys3root.com. It's a site created by user zedomax where he makes videos on how to root & install custom roms/reviews that can be very helpful to less advanced users. I hope I've helped, and if you have any questions, issues, or are just looking for an opinion on something feel free to PM me and if I can't help you I'll point you to someone that can! Best of luck, and be careful!
Hello,
First sorry for that thread. I'm be a stranger to LG devices and I' m confused and not sure that I pick the right ansers from each threat.
Device: LG G3, 32 GB, V10F-TUR-XX
I' m really very new to LG's rooting process. Before I' used HTC and Samsung devices. I rooted and made a lot of things with my Samsung Note 2. Now give it away and purchased me the LG G3.
LG Rooting procedures are confusing and scaring me .
I' ll be very appreciated if someone could answer the questions below.
So far I see there are many rooting tools for the device. Which one is the proper one for my device. How do I know to choose the right one. I hope the device specs I mentioned above are enough.
What are exactly the differences between the rooting tools.
Are there locking mechanisms of the Kernel like on Samsung. Is it possible to lose the EFS partition like on Samsung devices.
Are there some codes like Samsung's KNOX.
Am I able to go back to the unrooted state.
Thanks in advance

You may want to ask the moderators to move this to Q&A before you get flamed.
There is a root tripper.
I'd check out Purple Drake. It should work for all variants. I/O root may work for your variant though.
There is an EFS backup tool, I suggest you use it.
You can unroot if necessary. Or just flash the appropriate tot/dll files.

Not a problem. This is my first LG device as well. I've just had the time to read through everything. Thought it'd be best before I start messing with stuff

This is my second LG. Before I used LG Optimus but was not in the rooting business. I let my Note 3 untouched . I started rooting Samsung devices with my Note 2. So far I see rooting Samsung devices is much easier than the LG devices.
By the way thank you again. But I still not feeling ready to root my LG G3 :laugh:

No No. Rooting will be fine I think.
I only worry about to unroot the device to its original state.
This is important for me to get newer versions of the device's software. (Android's nwer versions like 4.5 or greater).
Thanx.
hai, first off im not new to the whole rooting thing, ive rooted and jailbroken before and know the ins and outs. i just need to know if there is a lg g3 root for lollipop, i have data that i dont want to lose ect, what im assuming is that the change from dalvik did this and there is no root atm. just wondering what i can do from here and if i have any options?
Thanks,
Josh
*UPDATE*
Checked Q15 on the newbie page, just wondering now why there is no
root and if there is anything i can do to contribute to find one for everyone to use.
I have the KDZ ect for my device, if there are any recommendations for backup utilities,
please raise your voice, thx

If there is Data etc. you do not want to lose, why not back it up (MTP) to your Computer?
thank you
hello everybody, quick question and i apologize in advance if this has been covered somewhere else or for just being a dumb question in general; I have the LG G3 from sprint and a little over a month ago i had a friend root my phone and convert it back to stock android. In anticipation for android 5.0 I removed the root. for over the past week I have been spamming the update software button and still have no lollipop. one of my good friends told me that by converting back to stock android i probably disabled the over the air updates. I was wondering about how to go about getting the updates, i have seen some posts suggesting to use the lg flash tool but I did not really comprehend how to use it. sorry if this is something stupid still really new to android.
thanks

You have to put in a valid Sprint sim card for the OTA to show up

I already have a sprint simple card in the phone but no update, should I go get a new one?

In that case its best if you take into your local sprint store and see if they can fix it for you
I highly do not advise trying to flash the Lollipop TOT files as a fair majority of people have bricked their phone since they did not do it properly or something went wrong during the process
Hi I'm hoping somebody here can help me. I just bought a new LG G3 & upon further inspection of the Phone I noticed an app installed called SuperSU. I did a little digging & it turns out this Phone is rooted. I don't want to lose my Warranty or OTA updates from T-Mobile so can somebody please walk me through the steps to remove this & start fresh from stock T-Mobile Phone please.
I'm not the best at this kind of stuff so I'll need a very nice person to walk me through this or if you have a video with clear instructions. Please & Thank you.

This is the best way I know of going back to stock.

Use either the KDZ or TOT method.
There is no "easy" one-click method and you are at risk of bricking your phone.
You can also try the LG Mobile Support Tool
This page is pretty easy to follow and is what I always use when refreshing my phone.

this cant be a "new phone" if Superuser was installed and its rooted
Having root doesn't void the warranty. Furthermore, by buying off somebody instead of a tmo rep, you already don't even have a warranty, unless Tue guy you bought it off still has one one it currently.
