Use the easy root under development
Root method is available for getting root on jellybean but thats kinda tough and most of the folks unabke to understand because it is not one cluck root method neither works on windows but i hope ya can do that if ya see this thread with video explaination.
Its actually not tough if ya see the video and try to follow the instruction properly as therazrguy is saying .

Its impossible to downgrade to ics ot gb because once ya upgrade ya cdt.bin will be changed , due to that and our locked bootloader we cant downgrade .

You can't downgrade on Moto phones once you've upgraded...
This is coz Moto updates the bootloader...
Hence the only thing you can do is patiently wait for 4.4.4 stock firmwares to be uploaded and flash that...
Or try CM11 for condor in the meantime...
Here's the link... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2798015

I was on soak test 5.0.2 before going to 5.1.1 custom ROMs... I restored to stock 4.4.4, and got the 5.1 notification...
MY QUESTION IS:
IS IT SAFE TO ACCEPT THE OTA? Will it brick my device?

Yeah ni Brick happens maybe,
AFAIK bootloader upgraded in 5.0.2 big update, so cant tell what happens, and if u used custom ROMs, then u cant live with Stock ROM anymore. Im sure you will restore that backup after trying Stock rom, IMHO wait for twrp backup of FINAL OTA and try that, not make any drastic steps now bcoz the device is year older so we have no Warranty now.. ...

Hey thanks bro, but I restored to 4.4.4 yesterday, got the OTA.... And guess what!!!!
I am running official 5.1 on my phone now... No brick has occurred, everything is smooth.
I have never taken such a serious and risky step before in my life! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
But I can guarantee you and other fellow XDA members
Don't be afraid to install 5.1 OTA after restoring to stock 4.4.4 from 5.0.2
It actually works, since it Motorola has made it official.
Two things to note though....
The bootloader has been updated
The partition tables have been updated
The recovery is no longer the Kitkat one (as seen in 5.0.2 soaks)
Oh and BTW, if someone wants to get back to 4.4.4 for some reason, then he CAN, by flashing all the firmware files of 4.4.4 EXCEPT the bootloader and the partition. He will also get the OTA and install it fine. Just tried it tomorrow.
Peace!

Nevertheless, I think, it is good to get a taste of the Official ROM.

Why do you want the TWRP backup, you can just revert to stock and get the OTA.

I have made the backup, ready to be flashed....
Here are two things to do prior to installing
Do a backup of the previous ROM
Wipe Everything
Now install, and as soon as it completes setup, DO A FACTORY RESET (it gave bootloops, so I am requesting).
And another interesting thing, if you change the language to English US, the new Boot animation appears
I will definitely upload by tomorrow...
Thanks for the patience

Thanks to you bro
I had already made a back up just before rooting and after that I rooted,installed xposed etc.....When I got the stock recovery today I tried to restore the back up I had taken but same thing happened to me ....it didn't boot......stopped at android is starting then I forced switch off and rebooted to twrp and did a factory reset and then it booted ........
Initially it was showing the old animation (I had selected English (india) as language) but when I flashed the stock recovery , the animation changed to new one and I checked the bootanimation file is the same but I got the new one.....now when I flashed twrp again bootanimation stays as new one
Thanks for the upload again
I bet you both will back to Custom ROM again sooon, you all wasting time [emoji14]

Yes. There is a solution to update to Lollipop or MM.
1. First root ur device. there are lots of app and tools. i used kingo root tool.
2. install custom recovery. the only best recovery that supports g3 is TWRP. No need of latest 3.0 version. Even 2.8 version is good enough to flash all the roms you want.
Visit this link , You will Understand better.
http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-root-tutorials/how-to-install-cwmtwrp-recovery-on-lg-g3/
3. ** Even though ur device showed D855, you need to install only LS990 recovery as ur model is Ls990 running on custom kitkat D855 rom..( Yes. its a custom rom of D855. So the model shows as D855. You wont have system updates and some other options missing)
4. Now go to playstore, download flashify.. Open it and select the recovery file u downloaded. It will flash and will reboot to recovery.
5. Now ur device is rooted with TWRP'd.
6. Download the custom rom u want and flash it. If u did the above steps correctyly, U can update to 6.0 also( custom roms).
if anything goes wrong, feel free to PM me.
My phone is rooted with kingo but i want stock lalipop in my phone then i can update it to zv8 or zva update.with TWRP i think i cant have stock lolipop.please guide me.thanks in advance

If U flash stock lollipop, everything works fine except 2 things.
1. Sim wont get detected as ur phone becomes locked to a carrier
2.you will see a message or a dialog saying " handsfree activation" with a running circular progress bar all the time. You cant operate the phone, or cant even lock the phone as it appears again and again. There's a solution to this problem.
Also, a solution for the first issue. But data won't work.
Its better to flash custom Roms. Fulmics rom is the best for everyday use.
If u still want stock rom experience, and think that mobile data is not a big deal, then I can help you with the first 2 issues..
I flash stock firmware but fail motherboard says its ls990 but flashtool detect it d855.please guide me to get ur custom rom.
Now i lost root and not able to root with any method please tell me how to root it again i am on zv6 kk.please help me.without root not able to flash any rom.
hello i solved this issue on my sprint g3 a couple days ago let me help you
first of all these refurbished got the intenational version installed on them but you should keep in mind the phone is actually ls990
and for this tutorial you will need
1- adb drivers ( it will be cool you connect your phone and type adb devices so you get your real phone's version)
2- TWRP for ls990 other versions might not work (http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lg_g3/bump/twrp-2.8.0.0_ls990-signed.img)
3- root kk android version on your device using LG_Root_Script_by_avicohh (https://sourceforge.net/projects/avicohh/files/Android/LG_Root_Script_by_avicohh.exe/download )
4- you need to flash the twrp.img i'll recommend you to copy trwp on your sd and use flashify (available for free on playstore).
5- download, this marshmallow stock prerooted rom (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6tyZeOuo5smdWNzWVBURE9SMTg/view)
put in your sd or phones memory and install using twrp
it might take a while to boot but you will be ok
6- that's how i got android M on my refurbished LS990
oh one last thing nfc is buggy though but i don't use it
the rest works fine
you can check for rom updates here

Follow the steps exactly..
Not sure and cant guarantee that data will work. Inorder to uae data,u should go to custom roms only. (Self experience)
Done
Now everything should work.
Hit thanks if it helped...
