Yes, except I'd KDZ 12B instead, but that's my choice. Keep in mind the 10B_01 KDZ wasn't the official release so you won't be able to OTA to 12B or beyond. The 10B_03 TOT was the official release, however. You can root any release with the new one-click method. Remember to move anything you don't want to lose from your internal storage to external before using the KDZ or TOT.

Can you maybe provide more insight on how to KDZ....I come from Nexus phones and am not familiar with this method... Currently I'm only stock Lollipop, I managed to gain root, but I'm looking to downgrade so I can install a custom recovery and Roms.

2.get into twrp
3.Flash it

What's this for exactly?
Hilarious. If you took OTA update, you no longer have TWRP or root to use any longer and there isn't a current way to get them back. If your on a 35B Rom, just use the 12b kdz file available to download through many other threads.
This is not needed at best.

That's not exactly true. There is a confirmed method to downgrade using the TOT method if you took the OTA update. See this thread for details. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3220693

I dont see any benefit to downgrade these partitions and not the system.
What is the point of this?
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

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
Sent from my VS990 using Tapatalk
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.
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.

You can root, then flash TWRP and then flash a custom ROM. That's about it. Since you don't have a SIM, you won't be able to receive OTAs.
Follow the instructions in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/how-to-manually-downgrade-partitions-t3326775
Or if you don't care about root, use LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the 47A KDZ. Look for @annoyingduck 's stickied return to stock thread in the General section.

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.
