This is the new thread for waiting for root for Android 6.0.
Currently we have 5.1.1 rooted and people are just waiting for them to release root again for us.
If anyone is creating early bounty's for this than you can let me know and I will add them to the top of the thread.
I'll put up $20 for MM root.
I'll put up $5, it's all I can really spare.
i really wasnt looking for root on 5.1, i think verizon had to hurry up and put Marshmallow out because of root
I'll pledge $20. Gave up root for mm and regretted it rather quickly.
Root will only get easier now that it's been accomplished.
Kickin' it on my VS990

According to @tungkick root for marshmallow cannot happen without unlocked bootloader and edited kernel....

If @tungkick or someone cracks the bootloader for 11b, or does something like done on the G3 with the bump method, we should then bee able to get twrp flashed and custom roms flashed so we won't have to worry about cracking vzw's 22a at all. We could then flash any rom we'd want, including marshmallow roms. Am I right in this thought process? And those that are on 22a would just have to downgrade to 11b using lgup refurbish mode.

It didn't work for me. Gave me an error message saying something like TOT Anti-rollback enabled. Even though it didn't roll back, it showed my software status as modified in the phone settings. Had to reflash the mm kdz today to get the software status back to official.

Well damn, that blows! I was about to try out mm, but not at the cost of root and the possibility to bump twrp.
I'll pledge $20 for root

I pledge $25 for bootloader bump with that we can flash a modified version of marshmallow. But will take root on MM also so $20 on that also. Count me in.

If you took the update can you try the one click root in dev. Interested in seeing if it still works.

yea, we won't really know if this is a root exploit patch until someone takes the hit.
Its been confirmed by multiple people that the update does not address root or loki.

Yes...it doesn't patch root. If you are rooted and do not have a custom recovery installed. You can accept the update and it does nothing. If you have TWRP installed, you need to flash the stock recovery, accept the update and then flash back to TWRP after.

Hello all,
Has anyone heard of a potential root for MM (If you've taken the update via OTA or LG Bridge) in the near future?

"I've replaced my V10" - that does not mean root confirmed. "Grogg88" I believe changed to a non-LG phone running on MM and got root. He nowhere says it's on an LG V10 -But that he changed is critical because LG has their own firmware tricks...

I already knew MM doesn't have root. The OP never specified with LP or MM so I just commented. So I'm not telling lies about root on the H901. I was just not specific like the OP.

Now we know he did get a new LG V10 from TM, but it was still a Lollipop - lucky guy... that is why he was able to root...the old fashioned LP way...

Hi,
I read the thread and I have a question. If you used LG Bridge instead of OTA can you use the method in that thread to obtain root or am I still barked?

No. If you go ota or LG Bdridge, you are stuck until root is acheived. If you go the way of Eliminator74's version, you will have the official update with root. LG
Bridge and OTA = official MM without root and custom recovery.
Eliminator74's Rom = official MM with root and custom recovery.
Word of warning, no matter what route you go for the update, you cannot go back to lollipop. Trying to go back to lollipop will result in a bricked phone.

Can I use LGUP to flash the .kdz for marshmallow over my rooted lollipop image using upgrade option in LGUP? Yes I want to lose root. I miss android pay to much.
Yes, as long as it's the whole .kdz image and not the update it will do a complete wipe of your phone to factory.

Why didn't att just play nice and update to V3? Instead they update To V4 so I can't flip flop between t-mobile firmware and there's. Does root still work? On the other hand, I can flash Verizon firmware I guess.

I haven't attempted rooting it, and I won't be. There might be a small chance that it may work but I'm not sure.

Well ... if root doesn't work I know what my next firmware will be. (Tmobile)
I can't root, looks like it's back to the drawing board. It figures this happen as soon as I feel it necessary to root my device......
I advise everyone to not take any OTAs after the first August patch so you can still be able to root and flash roms. It isn't a problem for me since I wasn't planning on rooting this phone again anyways..

@raremind couldn't root on BL4. It's unfortunate how we can't root on API2, but if the developers are willing to find out a new way to gain root access on API2, then it wouldn't be the end of the world for anyone who wants the latest OTA but still want root.

So is this confirmed to work because I myself have a 4 CA and I'm interested in downgraded to 10B so I can root?
