I've tried those but... none worked...
Even I have this device and looking forward to rooting it. But unfortunately none of the methods work.
Dudes, I think this guy knows the answer to our problem, check him out in this discussion, he claims that he rooted LG e435

although there was a bit of problem so... just read it to at least have an idea.
My ROM version isalready v10c which i updated with LG mobile support tool and I tried framaroot apk many times with no success. So I m not sure if installing v10c ROM with KDZ is going to make any difference or not. As someone suggested we need to probably flash a pre-rooted ROM.

A pre rooted Rom is basicly LG stock Rom rooted. I have yet to see anyone saying they have rooted this Rom so my guess is that flashing a pre rooted Rom is basicly not possible. I know it can be rooted wish I knew how.

Even I have this device and my software version is already v10c and framearoot doesn't work for me. So should I flash it with KDZ to make it rootable or the firmware for which the links are given is something special ? I belong to a different country , So should I flash with the firmware meant for my region or the one given in the links in that post ?

What is your firmware version? maybe there is something on the firmware that made it rootable, the version in my phone says that it is "E43510c-CIS-XX" and my stock firmware is "E43510c-SAS-XX" maybe it means that this thing is a different 10c, I also thought that I had the right version and failed with framaroot but with his 10c it became rootable.
Go check if you have the same version as him, if not, flash the firmware using KDZ, don't worry about the region, I guess it won't be a problem.
Can you post links for download of kdz farmaroot and firmware... If you have root I think u can use kdz again to flash stock firmware effectively removing root.

Does flashing with this method erase all the data ? And apart from installing on externel SD , Are other root apps working properly ?

When you flash a different Rom.it should erase all data. If you have root then everything with root should work. Root is like getting administrative power which is similar to ur windows administrator account.....

When I flashed it, no data was erased, but make a backup, just in case.
About the apps, its good, apps that need root works just fine.

Stay with the BTU ones, the ones from Carrier get updated very very slowly. Even my Carrier didn't receive 3 รก 4 updates for i9505.
Ok, but my point being that the carrier ones have received 2/3 updates in the time since my last one, my last one being April...

you can flash any new unbranded firmware MEA or MF8

It's same like the UK version? Because I saw that update on sammobile a little time ago. But this romanian version it came out after the UK one. So it's something new, or if you can find some change log please post it, I'll try to search to.

No you don't need root to install it, you need a recovery mode like CWM or TWRP (hope that's the name). If you're from the region where the official update is available ota, no you don't need root or costume recovery, you can update via Kies. If you will flash the ROM from sammobile site via recovery (ex. CWM) and you have root, you will lose it becouse that's the official ROM from Samsung and it's not already rooted, but you can reroot , your device. Look in to the Android Development category to finde out more about rooting and flashing ROMs or Kernels. I recommend you to read more about rooting and flashing ROMs becouse you can brick your device easily, so take care.

Hi all,
I have D802 G2 that had stock rom and I've upgraded to the 4.4.2 KitKat with the following manual:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665985
This is a vodafone official rom which is suppose to be rooted.
How can I downgrade back to the original 4.2.2 stock rom?
I tried the LG R&D Recovery tool and loaded the 4.2.2 kdz file and turned my phone into download mode but it doesn't work.
It keeps on saying that my phone has the latest updates by LG, I wanna downgrade !!!
Anyone can help ???

I'm interested in it too. You can try to follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
but i'm not sure if it is ok to downgrade (I think it's safe). I tried it but unfortunately I can't finish because of an error that is occurred and I didn't find any solution yet. So by now I still have 4.4.2.
I have same proble. any help?
Reset to Factory doesn't work as a method to roll back? Or does upgrading to Kitkat also upgrade the factory restore image?

The factory restore image gets updated to kitkat. You have to use the guide Revert To Stock here on XDA and follow the instructions listed. Just follow them to a t and you'll be good to go. It's awfully hard to mess up. Even if you're not used to using methods like that it's easy peasy

you aren't using the correct tool. Find the thread Revert to Stock here on the LG G2 forums and follow those instructions. You will be using the LG Flash tool. Not the R & D tool. That's a whole different animal that is used for updating software. Not downgrading. All that tool does is search the LG servers for software updates and starts the install for you if you cannot receive an OTA for some weird reason. I downgraded my AT&T d800 using the flash tool method and it takes about 10 mins and then you're back on 4.2.2
The link the other member posted is the correct method of downgrading.

That's the wrong tool. That's the LG support tool. You need to use the LG flashtool that is listed in the tutorial the other member posted a link to. You don't have to do anything with languages if you follow the instructions. The tool you're talking about is used for software updates. That doesn't let you downgrade.

I have a Bell G2 on 4.4.2 that I want to downgrade and install a custom recovery. Those instructions say to use the LG Flash tool but when I download it, I notice that the source says ATT/Sprint/Verizon only. What do I do?

That I can't answer. I'm not sure if the At&t and bell images are compatible. I can almost guarantee they aren't. What you CAN do is just google search Bell LG G2 stock tot. I'm sure there would be either an xda link or a dev that had a repository of factory images for various models of the g2.
The easiest thing for you would be to search for your specific device model number (I.e. d800 which is the AT&T g2) tot. That should get you to the image you'd need for the flash tool.

I have tried searching for the tot file but there doesn't seem to be one for the Canadian variants. I have the 4.2.2 KDZ file though, can I just use the regular back to stock methods and flash it over my 4.4.2?
Edit: From what I see, only ATT/Sprint/Verizon models use the .tot and .dll method.

If I remember correctly the kdz method doesn't use the flash tool. It uses another method entirely. So if you got an error while attempting to use flash tools with kdz that'd be why.

Idk, world war three.
The member said his version uses kdz and not tot. If your model uses tot then use tot. I've found it vastly easier than kdz. Either way you go just make sure you follow the instructions exactly for whatever method you decide to use. Neither myself nor the devs whose method you decide to use is responsible if you somehow mess up your device. If you follow the directions to the letter you should be fine but if you're not comfortable doing this then please don't. XDA isn't tailored for noobs. It assumes you have at least general knowledge of android modifications. Not trying to come off harshly so please don't take it that way.
