Hard Brick or soft?
How did you try to root it? What variant? I can help you out if its a soft.

(soft means you see the LG logo, hard means it doesn't boot)

You're forgeted.

What were you even trying to achieve via root anyway?

piracy lol

oh well

Unfortunately, Hard brick.

Apparently LG has a JTAG and a 1 year warranty, someone sent a hard bricked phone in and LG fixed it for money. I'm almost considering contacting them.

you can pirate normally without root, you're probably thinking jailbreaking which doesn't require jailbreaking either

thing about G3 roms is that so many are for the international version of the G3 and the carrier-specific ones don't have too many roms. stuck on sprint's model.. hurrrhg

can

but we arent naive are we

bricked my old LG, i told them it just stopped working (tried rooting it and completely broke). I kept turning it on and off till the battery drained and it showed nothing when powered up, then sent it in and said i'd made no adjustments and that the phone was almost new. Got a new phone completely free, never heard anything about rooting.

Call customer support and say the same thing, pretend to be an idiot and just say "It stopped working". It might work for you too.

warranty fraud?

This is why I like that I'm with T-Mobile. Even though they say they don't accept it in the terms most of the time they just don't care and swap it for a new phone under warranty. They have their little techies fix the problem and resell it.

A hard brick costs around $100 to fix if you know what to replace. Sometimes a new board is enough to fix it.

You didn't brick it. Like, rooting a phone is just changing the firmware. If you forgeted up, figure out how to put your phone into a firmware restore mode and put the original ROM back on it.

I dunno what you managed to do wrong, I'm using a LG G3 with a custom Lollipop (because the LG skin is disgusting in 5.0) ROM right now.
