i have not use this one but its similar.. i used for h811 system image... on mine i had to be on LP 10n not sure aabout your variant... then copy the system image file ... its a 4.2GB file then put phone into download.. i opened folder and do a comand promt in there.. follow the commands and it moves the system image enter leave and it restarts with root on the phone....
like i said this is for the tmobile h811.. but its similar to this guide never done this guide so follow their steps..... good luck

First of all thank you for sharing this Im afraid i might brick ny device i thought there was some easy method like CF Auto root one click n done ... I Have to wait for bootloader to unlock i cant risk or is there any easy method flashfire?

i know i did mine too.. i was afraid too.. but there was an eaiser way for my h811.. its the same but it only talks about that phone... but it should be similar..

Theres no one click methods unless bootloaders unlocked which dont look like is ever gonna happen. As long as you follow the steps ure pretty safe.

NOTE THIS IS GOR TMOBILE ONLY H811
just read and since its shorter maybe you can get an idea on what to do with the other method .. this guy says to read the low effort as its the same....

Rooting H815 with locked bootloader.

hi
I did a lot of reading here in XDA lg g4 forums and still i didn't understand if it is possible to root a g4 h815 device
while to bootloader is locked.
i tried to unlock it with no success.
My software version is V10c-SEA-XX
Model number LG-H815.
Any idea?
thank!
If you can't find the answer to this question, you should stop looking. Rooting is dangerous and can ruin your expensive new phone.

No need for sarcasm, i just want to make sure,
i read this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
but still i want to be 100% sure that my phone is supported...
I wasn't being sarcastic. It's my honest belief, that if you have to start a thread to ask "can I root my phone" you should be warned not to try.
bump
as long as you are on lollipop or can downgrade yes you can.
if not sure if you can doengrade enter hidden menu. search if you dont know code. go to software all the way down and check antirollback.. i heard all h815 can but better to check..
then follow this procedure i did it when my bootloader was locked for warranty.
i created a .img from my phone.

LG G4 H815P - Need help rooting

After trying several tutorials, i found out that i cannot unlock my bootloader. I thought that my 815p could pass for an 815 but no.
I also looked for specific info on rooting this variant but it seems its not common enough. Can someone direct me?

use the same method as 815 EU. i'm using 815P from south africa and you can root it so easily with the low effort root. choose the 815 EU/international command

I get what you are saying, but all the guides i saw mentioning the 815 EU do the unlocking bootloader step. When i go to the official lg site after getting the info from fastboot, i get a message along the lines of "your model is not supported".
Can you link me to the guide you used, if possible? How did you unlock your bootloader?

not unlocking bootloader... your heading says "Need help rooting". you can root the H815P but can not unlock the bootloader. i'll paste the link for the low effort as they came up with it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
only for Lollipop (android V5)
rooting it is exactly as the H815 EU version.
get the Send_Command files
get the rooted system.img
connect your phone
type in the commands to verify connection
type in the dd commands for H815
your done and phone is rooted and can install all Lollipop ROMS

You're right. I need help rooting, its just every guide i saw on rooting the EU version does the bootloader unlock thing. i didnt know one could root the phone without unlocking the bl. Thanks for the link, i'm working on it now..

great thread.. thank you! Did it work for you?
it did
Guys I was able to root the H815P: First I flashed it with 5.1 (it had android 6), and I flashed it with H815.. not the "p"..
Then I was easily able to root it with that dd command.. smooth!

You probably need to unlock the bootloader, both in dev settings and again with fastboot. fastboot will wipe data

It's been a while since I used Fastboot.
Do you know the exact commands to unlock the bootloader?

Regarding root access, this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/root-lg-k10-420ds-t3479902
Explains how tho get root on a similar phone like LG k10 using kingroot. Other members have told me I don't have too unlock my boot loader before attempting too gain root.
Do you know if there is any truth in that?

No you don't need to unlock your bootloader to root your phone. Some devices need it.
I bricked my phone while replacing KingRoot with SuperSu. I don't trust Kingroot, removing KingRoot method for LG K10 for now.

the kingroot method doesn't work for me.. I have k430n (mediatek variant)
i just noticed this new trick which looks promising.. but i haven't tried it yet
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/twrp-root-lg-k8-k350n-t3475807
If you stop at "Your device ia corrupt... " Just use LG Bridge, works well!
One question is there is that is same for lg k420ds

G4 how to root it? (dont understand whats with bootloader and so)

Hello there, i got an LG G4 h815 few days ago, when ever i get new device first thing i do is root it, and it was always very easy for me.
with this g4 i got problems, try to go to LG website and unlock bootloader, it say i cant cause my device is h815 taiwan, so i read more in google and understand official unlock is only for the euro devices.
so i google more try to understand how can i unlock it unofficially, and found nothing, as well as try to google for a way to root it with out unlock bootloader, and also coulnt find.
im sure im missing something, cause i dont think its possible that there is no root for an old device, any help on how to root my phone?
thanks a head.
Lots of people here have H815 TWN...please can some one make a specific thread for rooting or installing xposed on Taiwanese H815 without the risking of bricking or bootlooping the device...meaning successful rooting ...

unfortunatelly you cant unlocked till today.. maybe later if someone can do it... but you can add root to locked bootloader... i have not tried this method.. i tried similar to h811 tmobile.. but its the same procedure.. mine is unlockacle but i dont want to with the bootloop issue... unlocking bootloader voids warranty. and root too but you can always try the kdz that disables the big cores and undo the root..

thank you, i found the root for locked bootloader, i done it, but its only for 5.1 android, and i still cant flash roms, only one rom witch they make for locked bootloader, so after all the process went back to unroot 6.0 androis >:
hope some1 will break this bootlock .

h810 has bootloader locked so no twrp... and only injecting system rooted.img. but...... not on marhsmallow you need to be on lollipop... but theres antirollback. you need to findout if you can downgrade fisrt.
Use the search function and really do not open several threads asking the same question this is not the way it works

search for how to enter hidden menu on your variant ... enter code then go to software on bottom it says antirollback i think if its 0 then you may proceed..NOTE not sure so if 0 then it means theres no antirollback..
downgrade only if you are sure you can..
