How to re-root a LG G Pad 8.3 (V500) already on Marshmallow 6.0.1 - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my LG G Pad 8.3 (V500) and I installed the AOSP 6.0.1 (MOB30J). It works fine, but for some reasons (?), I lost the root. Does someone know how to re-root the G Pad 8.3, already on Marshmallow 6.0.1 ? The root guides for Android 4.4 do not work and I do not find a guide for the 6.0 version. Thanks for your help.

Hi, you flash SuperSU 2.52 in recovery to root your Device? If still not have SuperSu after boot, you install it from playstore. It's will OK.

Hi. Many thanks for your answer. I have SuperSu, but it tells me that:
1- I have no binary installed
2- if I made an update to Android 5.0 (in my case, it's 6.0), I have to re-root my device manually.

As @hptnhan says, if you flash the latest SuperSU.zip from custom recovery then you should be set.

OK. I understand. I'll do it. Thanks for your help.

I have the same problem. Lost root after AOSP 6.0.1
I tried to flash the latest supersu zip 2.76 and got secure booting error and stuck on LG logo. Please help.

Restore to a 100% stock unrooted ROM using a KDZ or TOT made for your variant (V500). Flashing a TOT or flashing a KDZ with the CSE option will wipe everything including internal storage. If you flash the same version of the stock ROM that you were previously successfully running, you could try flashing a KDZ with the Normal option which won't wipe Data. If the tablet won't finish booting after that, try wiping Cache or a Factory Reset which will be the same as flashing the KDZ with the CSE option.

Thanks for your help. I was able to flash the stock rom. I installed ASOP 6.01 again and i lost root again. How do I gain root again on ASOP 6.01? Flashing the supersu.zip doesnt work for me. Is there another way to regain root on ASOP 6.01? Thank you.

I will ask the same question: How do i root my LG G Pad 8.3, running Android 6.0.1?
I've tried SuperSU 2.52, but got stuck on the secure boot error.

AOSP or CM 13? I haven't fooled with CM for any device in over a year but last I checked it includes it's own SuperUser app that you could enable. It might've been in the Developer Options section of Settings. You could also optionally try flashing an old version of SuperSU that's not Marshmallow-aware such as v2.46 or 2.5x (I think 2.5x was still not Marshmallow aware). Don't blame me for bricks though.
When I had tried CM 12.1 (for a different device, I don't have what you have) you could opt for flashing SuperSU.zip instead of enabling the built-in SuperUser app. I don't know if that's still an option under CM 13.

Sounds like you fellas are running wrong base ^^ (original firmware that V500 came with?)
Could be wrong as I've been out of the game a while o_0
Try a new base and then root, recovery and custom ROM it.

How Autorec works

Hi guys,
I've planned to do a CSE flash (means "with data loss") of latest official rom and then switch from the obsolete CloudyG3 to the FulmicsRom.
So I'll need TWRP recovery, but according to my experience it need to be "bumped", otherwise I get a Secure Boot error.
Autorec is considered the best solution, now I want to know:
1) How Autorec works to prevent this?
2) I'll get latest 2.8.7.0 TWRP recovery or the 2.8.6.0 instead?
3) I'll definitely solve bootloader issues, also when in future I'll manually flash "non-bumped" recoveries?
Ps i would appreciate more a better method to obtain the same result (the freedom of use non-bumped recovery).
The only I know is the "oem-unlock", but it's irreversible so I dislike it.

1) Autorec flash the "bumped" kitkat bootloader.
2) I have the 2.8.7.0, but its up to you really.
3) If you flash a not bumped rom or recovery, you will get a secure boot error. But, everything is bumped because its the only bootloader unlock that we have

So Autorec is useless, if I obtain the same result and limitations of a manual bumped recovery flash.
Why make useless bootloader changes if same result without mess up other partitions?
So, if I understand well, Autorec make exactly what I manually do by flashing of a "signed" boot/recovery partition.
I'm wrong?

Its useless if you are still on kitkat, but if you're on lollipop and you want to install a custom rom or recovery, you don't need to downgrade with tot, loose everything, flash bump, and go on... it make things easier in that case.
In fact,
Bump make believe to the phone that what you try to boot is legit,
While Autorec install the bumped kitkat boot partition if you are on lollipop.
And the bootloader change is not useless if you're on lollipop because bump don't work on lollipop.
If you are on the cloudy Rom, you already have TWRP installed.
You don't need to go back to stock.
Just boot to recovery: turn off, press vol.down+power, when you see the LG logo release the buttons and press then again units you see the recovery the factory reset. Say yes both questions and then you are in TWRP.
Copy the new ROM on the SD card and flash it.

So you're saying that FulmicsRom, based on 21A, will works greaceful even under 20H system (bootloader, etc.)?
The CloudyG3 developer suggest to flash latest official rom before its latest custom one.
I think it's true for FulmicsRom too.

Regarding the rom, I never needed to look for bumped releases.
On my device I flashed both Resurrection Remix (CM-based) and CloudyG3 without any problem: as requirements only the root access and a TWRP bumped recovery.
Probably the cited roms are signed by default, so the scenario described by you may happens only in other systems like MIUI or Ubuntu Touch... given that they are unsigned, I'm doing only an example.
I continue to be confused regarding the aim of Autorec.
So, why if I flash a non-bumped recovery I continue to get Secure Boot errors? The bootloader may be modified to prevent this behaviour, but Autorec won't do that.
So what it does?

If you flash a non-bumped recovery, its normal that you get "Secure Boot Error" because bump is the "unlock". Everything on the g3 must be bumped to boot.
Autorec flash the kitkat bootloader if you are on lollipop (to make bump work) and after it flash a bumped twrp (recovery), that's all.

Yes, you can flash on top of the cloudy no need to go back to stock.
The only thing you have to do is wipe all partitions except the sd before flashing.
Both ROMs are stock based.
If you decide to flash a KDZ or TOT to go back to stock you will have to root first and then use Autorec.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.
I was afraid regarding the compatibility of the actual 20H bootloader with custom 21A rom, CloudyG3 is based on 20H but works under the same bootloader.
But you're telling me it's not existing any kind of problem with that.
So I can flash rom in the easier way (from zip file with TWRP recovery).

So we can say that Autorec is useful only when I work with TWRP on official (obviously rooted) firmware.
But since the cited rom is only "based" on official, I'm not needing to use Autorec, if I directly flash bumped version of TWRP.

Listen... Lollipop bootloader DOES NOT accept BUMP.
So what autorec app by Bender does is flash a kitkat bootloader which ACCEPTS BUMP.
Autorec also flashes the bumped TWRP to recovery partition.
So... if you have TWRP you are on kitkat bootloader and you can flash whatever you want that is bumped. All images based on whichever version of ROM 21A, 20H or any of the other ones you find will work on that bootloader.
To finalize, yes you can flash it the easy way with TWRP.

Clearful, thank you so much... even if uppercases may seem offensive (like you talk to a stupid who won't understand)
So if I start from an official 21A firmware, I need to:
1) Root device;
2) Install and execute Autorec;
3) Flash anything from the bumped TWRP (automatically installed by Autorec alongside the KitKat bootloader).

1. root
2. install autorec for v20t or 20u
3. install rom (you already have bumped recovery because of step 2)
4. yes, you can now upgrade recovery if you find a more recent one

LG based Lollipop ROM for V-500?

Hey guys, I have a Gpad 8.3 that I bought from Newegg when it first came out. As of now the only update I have received is the 4.42 Kit Kat update. It's my understanding that LG only updated the Verizon version to Lollipop. Is there a ROM based on the LG Lollipop update that I can possibly flash? I prefer the LG version of Android to the bone stock versions (such as Cyanogen Mod or the GPE).
I rooted with stumproot but haven't flashed any custom recovery of that matters.
Thanks for any help!
There are LG Lollipop ROMs for the V500, but only made for the Korean and Hong Kong ones. You can use them on any V500, though.
No, there's no port of the VK810.4G Lollipop to the V500.

Thanks for the reply. If I were to flash the Korean Lollipop update, and select English as the language, would it essentially be the same as a American update?

You're welcome! Since I have the VK810 variant, not the V500, I can't tell you from first hand knowledge but from what I've read yes, essentially. There may be some Korean-specific apps pre-installed you could get rid of with root or disable with or without root. If you have the original KDZs for the V500 for your region you could always flash back if you don't like it for any reason.
Although I run stock-based rooted official LG 5.0.2 on my VK810, I'm hoping there'll be a 5.1.1 (or 6.x+) update sometime as 5.1.1 on my G3 is much better than 5.0.1 was on it. Overall, I like Lollipop, though.
Good luck!

What would you suggest I use to create a backup of my current ROM (in case I don't like the Lollipop ROM)? I am rooted, but haven't flashed a custom recovery yet.

A couple options:
1. Install TWRP (I don't know the correct method on the V500) and make a nandroid. Nandroids don't back up every single partition, however, and sometimes a major change in official ROM versions requires some of the other partitions to be restored to work properly.
2. Use Titanium Backup to backup all of your apps and app data. You could back up system data too. Don't restore that system data on any but the same version of official ROM, however.
Either way, then you could use the original KDZ for your current ROM version to flash via LG Flash Tool 2014, then re-root, reinstall TWRP and restore your backup.

A full LG stock ROM file. LG's official tools download and flash them. The difference between the official tools and LG Flash Tool 2014 is that the former downloads only the latest available KDZ every time you want to flash it, then deletes the KDZ when done flashing. The latter lets you choose which KDZ (of ones you've downloaded on your own) you want to flash, and doesn't delete it after.

I was on rooted stock v50020d before flashing this! Works fine for other stock versions as well!
Go here to download the .kdz v50030b ROM!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...-custom-stock-v50030b-lollipop-5-0-2-t3230344
It's the Hong Kong version with no default Korean or Chinese language nor any Korean bloats. It's like an international rom! Just flashed it last week! And it's not necessary to wipe your data. Only wipe the cache after flashing the rom! Use the pure stock method if you don't want to have to update fishears kernel every time.
Steps: Download Rashr app from play store. Download twrp for v500 from here: https://twrp.me/devices/lggpad83.html
Install twrp using rashr and reboot.
Download supersu.zip v2.46 to flash for root access from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
Put the v50030b kdz and pure stock kernel file and supersu zip in same folder for convenience!
Reboot to recovery using rashr. Choose install and install the kdz file first, then install the file for stock kernel, and install supersu.zip and wipe cache and reboot device and you should be fine!

Cannot flash roms with TWRP

Hello,
I got a used G3 for my gf. I installed the latest LG marshmallow rom with LG flash tool.
After that I rooted and installed TWRP 3.0.2-0. Within TWRP I erased data and wiped everything.
Now when I try to install a rom (tried 3-4 different ones) I get this error:
"set_metadata_recursive some changes failed".
How should I proceed?
Great many thanks!
Just a quick question to understand what you've done:
If you installed "the" latest marshmallow rom with the flash tool, then how did you root and install TWRP? You can't root Marshmallow properly; That needs to be done from 10B.

Maybe I used the wrong terms. I flash "Europe D85530B_00_1217.kdz" with the flash tool. Afterwards the phone was on 6.0. Then rooted with Kingroot (if I remember correctly).

If you have TWRP, then better to flash custom rom LP/MM/LineageOS which they have root or you can root it. Much easier than try to root MM you have its complicated I think.

You have to use lgup or the flash tool to downgrade your phone to 30D MM or lower.
(https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...g3-d851-t-mobile-downgrading-rooting-t3608851)
Then root the phone using kingroot. Once you have root, flash twrp using adb or a terminal app from the phone itself. Reboot into twrp and flash MESA's complete 30G rom here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72931940&postcount=98
When the flash is complete, flash magisk before rebooting.
You'll be on the latest 30G build, with root.

You have to downgrade so you can obtain root access which is needed to install twrp. Twrp is needed to install mesa's ROM. You need to downgrade because 30g cannot be rooted. Mesa's rom is legit stock with the latest security patches. If you want the latest ROM with root this is how you do it. No other way around it

fixed the link. Kingroot is just temporary. You're gonna replace the whole system and can inject whatever root manager you want. And mesas ROM is on whatever security patch 30g uses since its stock 30g. Do yourself a favor and read before you attempt anything. Educate yourself before you end up with a paperweight.

LG G3 D852 (Rogers) Lollipop 5.0.1 Quesiton about TWRP flashing

So I was able to successfully root Lollipop using the one click tool. Now I am confused how to get TWRP in Lollipop. The autorec tool is dead and doesn't work anymore even with APKs found online. How do I flash TWRP? I tried using Flashify and the latest D852 3.0.2 TWRP image and it ended up bricking my recovery and forcing me to go back to KitKat firmware to fix it. What should I do? I want to install Fulmics MM ROM but I need TWRP on Lollipop firmware first.
Please help.
install via adb

Hello,
I have a similar situation. I bricked my recovery and now I'm stuck with Lollipop and no custom recovery.
How did you go down to KitKat? Which file did you use?
I am with Fido and need all the help I could get to be able to restore my phone.
Thank you,
