Unable to root LG G2 D802 4.4.2. 3.4.0 - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I am trying to root my LG G2 D802 (KitKat 4.4.2, Kernel 3.4.0) by using IOroot. I am getting the error:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
mount: Operation not permitted
Installing superuser
4371 KB/s (1468798 bytes in 0.328s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/superuser.apk
Success
In addition I checked and the phone seems to be rooted (with a couple of apps).
1. Why am I getting these errors?
2. I tried to install twrp and it seems its installed, however I am not able to backup, I am getting a message its cannot mount system, data, etc..
Any ideas? Thanks

Use towelroot
just install towelroot from towelroot.com by clicking on the 'lambda' sign there. one finished, install it and click on the 'root' or 'let it rain' button. you will be definitely successfull in rooting your device. towelroot has never disappointed me ever. hit the thanks button if it helped. *wink*

[q] failing while rooting lg g2 f320l

Hi,
I got the new G2 F320L LGU+ version from Korea.
Did an OTA to software version F320L11K.
Then tried to root using IOROOT method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887
But it gave following error
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted

Then I went thru the thread and found one of the solutions which suggested flashing back to stock ROM then factory reset and again root will work.
So I did that. But it still is not rooting.
I used the method posted by "hyelton" in the following link to flash. It flashed alright back to F32011G version of sofware i.e. before the update.

It doesn't support 320L/S version.
You may try the following method:-
ROOT:
F320 root pack (from choimobile.vn)
link: mega.co.nz/#!wB5B3AyC!YCtJDg9vfLRuwxoR8E0ZnlpRMctIft5zbzczA7uLAyo
or
Another method:
link: mega.co.nz/#!QN42wbgA!CKH5mUyTNJrSnopt88dpRwbvPqYUw_W_g_91XZG62ts
(basically they are using the same method, one is by exe and the other is cmd)
> Make sure you enable allow "untrusted sources" (Setting | General | Security) and enable usb "debugging mode" (Setting | General | Developer options)
How to show Developer option under General (by default this option is hidden)
Setting -> General -> About Phone -> Software Information
Press "Build number" 10 times
> Install the LG usb drivers, connect the phone in LG software mode.
> Connect the phone to your PC via USB Cable.
> Run the "Root LG G2.exe" from the attached archive.
> Follow the command prompt instructions
you should try on vroot , just download it and run it , enable usb debugging , press the green button n ur phone will be rooted , i also ve f320l

[Q] F320k updated to kitkat, show rotted, but cannot access root

Hi!!
Really need a hand right here.
I have got the f320k, and it successfully updated to 4.4.
After that, I tried to root it, but it kept showing:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to chown /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to chmod /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
I tried couple of times, it turned out to be the same as the above.
Then I got into download mode, it shows the phone is rooted.
Does it mean that I have rooted the phone only with a shell privilege but not root?
coz in the cmd, it didnt show as # but $.
Could anyone please give me some advice?
Thank you so much!
Hey,
Have you had any luck resolving this issue i have the exact same problem when tring to root.

Root D802 KK

hgey i just got mine lg g2 D802 and i updated it to KK imediatley !! but how the h** can i root this phone ? i ran an root batch file and it did say it had rooted my phone but wheni try rootchecker from play store it will not confirme i have root acces....
Have you got supersu app installed?
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Free mobile app
Did you have any output while it was in recovery ?
Try manually installing supersu
If it's already there, open it and check "enable superuser".
try this:
download terminal emulator from playstore (any..)
open it and type
Code:
su
and hit enter
if it asks for root access then you're rooted for sure. If not, there is something wrong and post results here
my output is(just tried again) :

Help Rooting D805 4.4.2

Im all out of options, I have no idea what else to do. Here is what I've tried:
1. Used the ioroot but it shows device not found right after it reboots into recovery mode but no error shows up .
2.Tried an older version of ioroot but this came up:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to open /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
mount: Operation not permitted
3. Tried TowelRoot but shows that my device is not supported.
I have no idea what else should I do now :/ Any help is appreciated.
PS: I cant use the newer version of ioroot now, it just shut down by itself when I press any key to start it.
EDIT: Ok I had to manually use CMD to install it.
