To root or not to root the LG G3?

Just tried to download the flashtool and files from here.. No go.

Where did you try to download the files from?

Re: To root or not to root? Wait, what?

I've heard of Click Root in several places. Does it really Root the G3 running 5.0.1 with a LRX21Y build and VS98523C software version?
Every tool I've looked into excludes these later builds and says oops, sorry, SOL.
I'm REALLY tired of all this bloatware that comes pre-installed and want them gone. Plus I really liked Titanium on my old (but useless) Pantech Breakout.

Dont root it, you might brick it

This coming from a person who was banned... Take it with a grain of salt. Even if you brick it, there are ways to get it back up and running. Just make sure that you are prepare to restore it if it does bootloop or freeze on you.
