It's been about three months since LG launched the G5, in the United States and some European countries. Apparently, so was the space which took to release the first device root method on the internet.
A post on the XDA Developers forum contains instructions and the tools needed to root the LG G5. There are links available to download LGUP for G5, DLL H830, Suppersu, Disbable, and archive TOT, together with the necessary ones instructions.
An image proves that the root was tested successfully, while many users of the forum confirm the same. For those who do not know the root of the specific device it is not easy, but as it seems the users of the forum managed to find the way.
By comparison, Samsung Galaxy S7 became rooted in less than a week after the device was released.
