URGENT!!! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an LG G3 32gb D85521A but I can't root it with the 5.0 firmware it came with. I need to downgrade to KitKat in order to root it, but I don't know which KDZ to use.
Which one is for the 32Gb version and what happens if I use the wrong one?
At this moment I have
Europe D85530B_00_1217.kdz
Greece D85510L_00.kdz
Spain D85521A_00.kdz
The way I see it, the Spanish seems to be the one I need (D85521A matches my model), but what happens after I root the phone and need to upgrade back to 5.0? Will LG Suite install its Spanish counterpart of 5.0?

GOOD NEWS!!!
I've managed to root my LG G3 without the need to downgrade to KitKat. PurpleDrake's method helped me do that and Root Check confirmed it, but:
1) I've followed PurpleDrake's instruction and went online to install SuperSU and it said something about a binary update, that there is another root in the system that prevents SuperSU from updating and that I should uninstall it in order to proceed.
2) In one of my attempts to root my phone I've installed Kingroot but it failed to root it. (there were some ads and when I scrolled down there was something about a memory boost and a button TRY IT. It required internet connection so I gave up. The root didn't work so I've uninstalled the app, or so I thought.
After PurpleDrake's root I've performed a factory reset to see if SuperSU stays in place, but instead of that I saw Kingroot stuck in my system.
Is there a way to totally get rid of Kingroot and keep SuperSU even after a factory reset?
Is Kingroot the program that prevents SuperSU from updating, or PurpleDrake conflict with it?

The update still didnt work. after that i decided to reinstall root and flash and update or something like that. but all the one-click root applications i try to use say my device is not supported. i now cannot update or re-install root and currently have no idea what to do.

Did you use the apk or the PC version to obtain root?
how did this work
So did you ever find out if the PC or apk was used. Was there any issues, how did it work. Also has anyone figured out a hotspot mod for this device. I have it on the boost unlimited plan. I really need the hotspot.
Kingroot non PC version will work on any device but you ever uninstall king root will not reroot that device
My question is will the PC versipn?
kingroot
So I can just install the kingroot apk and it should root my device. I am kinda new to this. Will it also install SuperSU or will I need to find a way to flash it, if I need it at all. Also. Does anybody know about how to get free hotspot. I read that changing the apk to end in dun will work. Anybody know for sure.
Yes second try but if you ever uninstall you will be looking for a new way king root will not work a second time nomatter how you try but its safe will not brick device and will cover as antivirus phone protection oh if use antivirus get rid myself f it before you try kingroot or your phone will glitch king root is read as threat because it has no limitations on what it can do BTW I use the y538 model
hotspot
Have you found a hotspot hack or mod. I am gonna wait till I know I can get free hotspot before I root it.

Use KingRoot APK, does it easily.
I dont like the app myself so im going to remove it with lucky patcher soon. Once king root is installed into the system i cant get him out for fear of loosing root. I just installed SuperSu fromChaindd but now I can not update the binary, Im going to clone superuser from my other phone so hes updated and then may he will stay updated when I install to system app with lucky patcher.
Oh, and by the way, Your bootloader is locked so you wont be able to change the rom. SuperSu couldnt even install himself into the system like he has on every other phone. Dont even try to install a recovery at this point because your phone may never boot again!
Someone is going to have to dump a backup and figure out how to fool the checks into thinking its a real OTA update on the way back in.

LG G3 SuperSU Root Problem

just looking for help with my AT&T LG G3. So I got my G3 while it was still on KitKat, I rooted it with Stump Root. Everything was going alright. It was all good until the Lollipop OTA update came around. I updated my phone and noticed that SuperSU was giving me this message: "There is no SU binary installed, and Super SU cannot install it. This is a problem! If you just upgraded to Android 5.0, you need to manually re-root-consult the relevant forums for your device.!" Iv'e looked into complicated steps of manually re rooting my device, but I don't think those are the same situations I am in. Therefore, Can somebody please, either link me to a proper instruction on how to fix my problem, or reply with an answer.

Is it necessary to unroot my phone?

I tried to root my phone before, but it didn't work. I don't know if it is not installed properly or whatever. My phone still works the same, so is it necessary to unroot my phone? I think before I tried to root my phone, it would automatically new software for the phone, but now it asks me if I want to download later. Would the choice to download software updates later go away if I unroot my phone?
first download root checker to see if you have rooted or not.
Two different root checkers said I didn't have root, another root checker said it wasn't installed properly. My phone has been a little off lately, that's why I'm wondering if my previous attempt to root it might have something to do with it.
Download later was always an option for me, had nothing to do with root

How I root my L3 II?

Recently I bought an L3 II (E430, keep in mind this model) for just 5€ (5,8 dollars) but the one thing is that the phone came with a V10F version that is from Movistar carrier (Spain ROM), this rom is vulnerable by Framaroot but I wanted to leave it with a Stock Rom without any carrier logo, so I flashed the V10E version,
The question is, this rom isnt seems to be vulnerable to Framaroot, TowelRoot and nothing, I tried kingroot, kingoroot, Vroot but all of these are methods that just install more malware and makes this little phone unusable;
I checked this forum but ALL the links or files are just down, so now I cant root the phone and change the binary to SuperSu cause Kingroot cant root, kingoroot keeps restarting phone and stuck in the process, and Vroot installs a TONS of malware and cant leave me work in peace cause the phone gets slow ..
Can someone help me with this ?
Solved, if there's anyone in the same situation as me, I did these steps;
used Vroot to Root, install CWM recovery and flashed SuperSU binaries (you cant install CWM if no root, that's why I rooted with Vroot), installed superSU APK and then with titanium backup removed all the bloatware/malware/adware
