[Q] What's the best/easiest way to root my G2 (Stock 4.4.2 firmware).? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Greetings.
I want to root my G2 and I'm looking through applications/scripts for it and I want to ask with what do I root it?
I have SRK and DP tools, they both offer rooting through ADB, DP tools offer unrooting also.
What are other good options?
And one big question, If I unroot, can I update to stock lolipop OTA?
Since I saw a thread that updating a rooted G2 causes a brick.

[Q] Kitkat update with pure root?

Hello together,
I have a short question.
Would it be possible to update to Kitkat when i have rooted my G2?
I would only do a root like in this discribtion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887
No other Rom or costum recovery.
Thanks
yes
AFAIK, root access does not prevent OTA update success, but if you have a custom recovery installed, OTA update will fail.

[Q] New to LG G2, overwhelmed by nformation

Hello Guys. I'm going to buy my LG G2 tomorrow. And Going to Travel the next day.
I really want to Root + Unlock Recovery as soon is get my hands on my new phone. But with so many models, KitKat breaking Root and bootloops, i'm very confused as to what I should do.
Can you guys enlighen me regarding the "state of the art" tools for Unlocking Bootloader and Rooting my G2?
As for May 24th, this thread may help some newbies out there too
1. For root. Find ioroot25.
2. For custom recovery. Find autorec. Its an apk file. Load the file to phone after root and just run it from phone. Itll downgrade you rec to jelly bean and install twrp iirc.

[Q] Just got a new g2 with newest OTA

Hey guys. Just got a G2 and I haven't really messed around with rooting or custom roms in a few years. I was wondering if it's possible to root and load a custom on this phone? I just got one earlier today, it has the latest OTA and it seems like a good phone so far. Is there a definitive guide or thread somewhere? I took a look and I'm not fully understanding all the terminology. Thanks!
Download and install http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906 (Stump Root)
It will root your device with one tap.
After rooting download SuperSU and install
And for recovery download AutoRec http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715496

[Q] LG G2 (D800) Rooted Stock v30f Rom?

Hi guys!
I want you to tell me if someone on these G2 forums could pass me a Root v30f Stock Lollipop Rom, cause I tried a lot of methods in order to root my LG G2, and all went unsuccessful...
Thanks in advance, Joe
Hi joe,
I am kinda confused, are you looking for rooting method that works for lollipop? If you are looking for prerooted rom, well, you can't flash it because you are not rooted and don't have custom recovery. What methods did you try for rooting?

No, I'm looking for someone who has the original ROM (for D800 - v30f), and have it rooted, or having a Rooted TOT ROM to flash it; but if you have a method for root, I would be very grateful.
The methods I used were:
- Through SRK Tools
- Script from HighOnAdnroid.com
- Several tutorials on YouTube, but all were prompt, and none worked, because they were stuck ...
- TowelRoor (unsupported)
- StumpRoot (unsupported)
- Return To Previous Roms, and re-Lollipop (not working)
- And other more .........
