can't root lg g2 sprint zve
i am also facing exactly the same problem plz someone help me...
download root checker and double check if you really are not rooted. If not use the lg flash tool and flash a kdz of a firmware version which can be rooted via ioroot for example
Like Krenol said, use root checker to see if you're actually rooted or not, but if you aren't you may also be able to use Stump Root without reverting back to a different firmware. IOroot didn't work for me on the latest firmware when I got my Verizon G2 but stump root worked for me. I can't remember if I had to use the brute force option or not but its worth a shot.

Stump root says is rooted.. but the SU app tells me the opposite, il try the downgrade
so then how can i flash a firmware?
I just updated my phone using the Sony PC Companion. Then I rooted it with King Root. Unfortunately certain apps(Samba) I run didn't like King Root. So I found this http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html . It replaced King Root with SuperSu. SuperSu updated just fine. TitaniumBackup works fine and didn't complain about the su binary like it did with King Root and Samba worked. I'm going to try to install TWRP next. I tried it before but it didn't work with the King Root su.
I've been trying to root my GP using the KingRoot and Odin methods, but came out empty with both methods
Summarized attempt
- Installed the newest KingRoot apk into my phone and installed
- Gave me an "Could not find root but try anyways" error and processed
- Finished successfully and confirmed root with Root Checker
- Ran SuperSume Pro and it stalls
- Reset phone and it bricks (infinite T-Mobile opening loop)
- Factory rest using Odin and stock firmware (from samsung-firmware)
- Try using pre rooted firmware (CF Auto Root Fortuna3a and another firmware I found) after, but both failed during the Odin process
If anyone would like me to go into more detail about my attempt, help me through a process, or link me to another root solution I would greatly appreciate it
I don't have the same model of grand prime, but I'm pretty sure you could just flash supersu.zip then install supersu.
Maybe wait until somebody else can verify I'm right, but I'm pretty sure it works on other models. You can find it along with other info here in the forums.
Hope it helps!
Edit; reread your post and had an idea, how about using the kingroot apk to root, verify with root checker, then try supersu or Super User from the app store?
Doubt it could hurt, if root checker is saying you have root, then it'd be safe to deduce that it's the rights management app and not the root process itself that's the issue

Here this is how I rooted my g530t http://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-prime/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g530t-5-1-1-t3203476
I figured out it was the Google FRP Lock that was the cause of the problems lol, after turning on the OEM unlocking (found in the Developer options in settings) the root worked fine using the TrapKernel MD5 with Odin
I got it rooted but just the first apps that required root got access granted now when i use root checker or want to use a root firewall it says it's not rooted. Root checker says its not rooted. But i granted 4 apps and now suddenly its not rooted anymore. How can that happen i even got superSU pro. Tried to root again with Odin still same problem. Only got the 4 first apps i installed that required root then its not rooted anymore.
Wanted to give this away to a friend in Europe, root the phone unlock it and put a custom rom.
Tried KingoRoot it finished with 100% says "rooted"
Kingroot always fails no matter what.
Does anyone have any tips on how to get it to work please?

Try kingoroot pc version works 100% with 5.1.1 n910v
But remember this will give you only temporary root
Once you reboot device the root will be gone
Bootloader is locked in n910v
There is a method you can get permanent root in verizon note 4 thread to unlock bootloader via adb method
If you unlock bootloader after that you can install twrp recovery and flash custom roms
Don't ever try cf auto root it won't work and it may brick your device.

I was able to root once and run the script and it changed the CID or whatever it was. Now I simply cannot get temp root at all to finish the bootloader unlock process. Tried PC version and Android version so many times now it just reboots and reboots.

You must flash any rom once you unlocked bootloader cuz unlocking will mess up your system so you cannot boot into system anymore.
Flash 5.1.1 stock firmware and start unlocking bootloader process from beginning
