Hey guys , i have used any programs und root apps and every time , it doesn't work. I am on the European Version. I have used the Kingroot app which always fails, then i have used the lg one click root rool: I get always stuck on download mode.....
Is there another way to root my phone , or did i maby make a mistake.

king root is more of a temporary thing on 5.0.2 and ask Unjustified Dev for help he can tell you if you're bootloader is locked or not to be able to flash a custom recovery and gain root

Ok so i have lg g stylo android 5.1.1 so how can i root it i cant find any ways
Hey , i wrote him a message , but he didn't write back
Because the bootloader is locked you cant root it. My friend has the MetroPCS version 5.1.1 and tried to root it , but he bricked his device so don't try it . only then if there is an official. There is one way to root it , you have to downgrade to 5.0.2 and than you can root it. I am on 5.0.2 and cant root it which i dont know why. Good luck and try to downgrade if you really want root access

Thx i wil try to downgrade and root and when i downgrade do i use the one click method or the king root method?
Try both . One of them both should work for you if you have the t-mobile , metroPCS or other carrier version.
Which Version do you have ?
