I used towelroot for my LG G2 and it worked great. Thank you for suggesting towelroot
will this work with KitKat on the lg g2 verizon
Check this LG G2 dedicated rooting tutorial: http://smartphonetechie.com/root-lg-g2/
Worked beautifully. Took about 10 seconds. For some reason towelroot.apk would not download directly to the lg g2. Had to do it through my laptop. Any ideas why it would not dl?
Thanks,
We are glad to hear that our tutorial helped you out. We covered a dedicated tutorial on How to root LG G2 (http://smartphonetechie.com/root-lg-g2/) and we directly downloaded towelroot on our LG G2 F320L and we faced no issues. What we gather from your comment is that there might be some server issue which was restricting you to download it on your mobile. Anyways, you have root access now. So, enjoy 😀
At some point I may want to unroot my LG-g2 vs980 Verizon to use ISIS Wallet. (It won’t run on a rooted device). How would I do this? Thanks, Howie
It works with zperia z c6606 T-mobile
