Root Rooting LG G3

[stormtrooper]

Has anyone rooted their LG g3 using the "easy" towelroot method? Thinking of doing it but Will it delete my stuff? Would u recommend it? Seems to good to be true.

I used ioroot and it worked perfectly fine. I've read towelroot doesn't work so well.

If you decide to root, don't update OTA from VZ..

GS5 is no longer rootable after their update today..

Thread moved to root subforum. You can stay up on which root methods are working for which G3 variant via this spreadsheet:

G3 Root Compatibility Matrix

It is regularly updated.

I realize this thread is several weeks old now but just in case anyone was curious, I have in fact used the TowelRoot method and I will say it was the easiest root job I've done! I have rooted my last three devices and this AT&T variant was hands down the easiest one.

The OP was right to be apprehensive in thinking it sounds too good to be true because that's exactly what I thought. I almost didn't do it because I was afraid of mukking up the device! But, I'm glad I did and what's more amazing to me is how quick it happened. I was completely done in less than ten minutes from start to finish...

I highly recommend the TR method for the AT&T device for sure
