Trying to help a friend who has a Cricket Stylo. I see that this only works for Tmo & Metro. Would anyone happen to know where to go to gain root for Cricket Stylo? Did some searches and found nothing yet.. Anyway thanks for your time.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Do you have USB debugging turned on in the Developer options?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Fiasco:
Yes I do.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
then you should get the pop up....
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Fiasco:
I should. But didn't. I'm uninstalling all android related drivers now. Will then re-install the LG drivers and try agakn
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Fiasco:
I re-installed the LG drivers, still no ADB permission pop-up. So I uninstalled the drivers and installed universal adb drivers. I got the pop-up and authorized ADB, opened a cmd window and confirmed adb works fine between the device and my PC.

I then uninstalled all drivers again. Re-installed the LG drivers and tried again, no dice.

So it seems the LG drivers are the issue on my system. Any way to root without them?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Thediesel1972:
You can try installing the tethering program pdanet. It will give you a choice of adb drivers while installing including a generic one which i use. Also when you attach your phone to the pc swipe down to see your notifications and you should see "meda device". Tap on that and you should see a pop up asking if you want to install drivers.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Fiasco:
I finally got it rooted with the manual root method. Couldn't get past the "LG Serial Port" part.

Update on Kingroot

I have not read through the whole thread to see if it has been mentioned. But seeing as it is not in the OP I wanted to post and say that KingRoot now works on the stock 5.1.1 ROM. I am running stock build LMY47V Software version h63110j as you can see from my attached screenshot. I literally just run KingRoot a few minutes ago. I bought my device two days ago. Hope this info helps everyone.

Question for the rooting on the LG G Stylo.

I have the metro version ( Lg Stylo ms631) is this a permanent root or temp root?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
there is NO Temp Root for any Stylo Variant just permanent.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] pmacevad:
Hi. I'm new to LG and the Stylo for tmobile. I received the device from T-Mobile already running 5.1.1 but the phone is asking me to do an android system update with a file size of around 60mb. Is it safe to take this update before i root or should i not worry about the update and just root? Also, does anyone know what that update contains? Stagefright update perhaps? Anyways, root and custom recovery seems simple enough to achieve, just not sure if i should update as stock or if this update can be taken after root, or if there is a way to flash update manually through custom recovery (which i assume would have to be made available by a dev). Any help is appreciated. Tia
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
First check what OTA (ZV3/ZV4) you are on not just the version (as you said 5.1.1) that way others can tell you if it's a OTA you should take. Second you can only take an OTA if you are completely stock that means no root or custom recovery....but chances are the latest update is available to be flashed via TWRP
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] pmacevad:
Ended up just taking the update cause i was bone stock. Rooted fine, twrp fine, katana fine. Thanks for the response though.

Hey guys since we don't have a forum yet for this device. Do we have custom roms for it?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Blu8:
We actually do have our little place over at XDA, though you're right it isn't what it could be. There's Katana ROM which is a modded stock ROM and CM12.1.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] T-Macgnolia:
Yes there is a CM 12.1 build for the device. But I am not sure of other builds are going to be possible as I have been working on building a different ROM for this device and also a android 6.0 build but nothing is booting so far. Real pain to be honest.

For LG Stylo H631

Instructions:

​You must be rooted with twrp-10J recovery installed (guide HERE).

1.​Go into twrp and do a backup.

2.In twrp choose "Wipe > Factory reset". Do not skip this!

3.Now choose Install and flash the Katana rom zip.

4.While still in twrp flash the MetroPCS or T-Mobile partitions from HERE.

5.After flashing both, reboot and enjoy!

6.First boot-up takes about 5 minutes, so be patient.

What happens if you don't flash the T-Mobile partition? I cannot copy and paste it to the phone. Device inaccessible

Which reboot option should be chosen (System, Recovery or Bootloader) in TWRP?

What happens if you don't flash this partition?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] pmacevad:
Have you tried the reboot to recovery option in recovery? May make your device accessible without 1st boot of ROM. Just an idea.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Elirahm:
Disable Network Lock App / LG Stylo T-Mobile

Thank you. Yes I figured out that the device would become accessible with a reboot to recovery.

Ultimately I went through this process to disable the Network Lock app but have been unsuccessful. I learned that I may have to unlock the bootloader. Is that true and if so, how is it done for the LG Stylo H631 / T-Mobile?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Blu8:
If you used TWRP then you unlocked it. It's the option in developer settings "allow OEM unlock"

Unlocking the Bootloader for LG Stylo

The T-Mobile Network lock app still comes up and doesn't allow the phone to prompt for an unlock code. Tried deleting the app with Titanium backup; Tried deleting the Network unlock app before doing TWRP; got error message that the deletion failed. now the Network unlock app is hidden. Cannot try to delete again. How can you access hidden system files with Titanium Backup or a similar app that can delete them? I thought if the bootloader was unlocked I would be able to delete that system file? Please advise

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Bwaana:
MetroPCS LGMS631, came stock 5.1.1, bought it this past Saturday (6 days ago).

Tried the One-Click and it sits at "starting adb server..." (which doesn't actually show that, I'm going by the screenshot of what it should look like) after * daemon started successfully *. I also see 2 adb.exe running in Win task manager.

My device manager shows a bang on LG G Stylo (the device cannot start Code 10), the driver says it's the MS_COMP_MTP and I thought MTP wasn't used in download mode so it didn't matter (?).

Latest driver 3.14.1 downloaded from link posted here, tried re-installing the drivers and same. Shows up fine when plugged in otherwise, no bangs in dev mgr.

I had to remove the battery to get it out of download mode, but it powered up no issues.

Then tried manual method, stays stuck on UNLK: and blinking cursor after the first command....

Re-installed driver and same.

Next, uninstalled the drivers and installed the VZW drivers - same issue.

How long does it normally take to start the adb server? Am I being impatient (waiting 10-15 minutes)?

---------- Post added 5th February 2016 at 12:41 AM ---------- Previous post was 4th February 2016 at 11:48 PM ----------

Straaaange... I was cancelling out of the root process to try this on my laptop (ending the 2 adb.exe in task mgr), I ended the 2nd adb and received an error, it started the next step, so I cancelled the 1st adb process, it started the root process again and got to installing SuperSu. It looked like it finished so I closed the command prompt window and tried to power out of the download mode.

I had to take the battery out to get out of it, turned it back on and SuperSu was installed! I verified root and installed flashify, ran it, added the TWRP file and rebooted. It booted back to TWRP and is now backing up.

I wish I had paid attention to the script to see the errors - it looked like it picked back up where it left off but not sure.

So, it must have been doing it's thing in the background and just wasn't showing in the command window? Or was it not supposed to have 2 adb.exe instances running?

I just got this phone as my old phone bit the dust. I followed the guide and rooted with one click and then installed TWRP and rebooted. However the phone is now stick on the TWRP screen and I can't swipe to unlock it or do anything. I can't even turn the phone off as nothing seems to be working. the status LED is red on top. Really appreciate some help as I got this phone as an emergency since my other one stopped working and can't afford another paper weight.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Blu8:
Take out the battery and make sure you enabled OEM unlocking in developer options
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] cmantis:
Yeh Im such an idiot I thought the battery wasn't removable. I deleted the .twrps file (which I read to do somewhere) and removed the battery. I didn't see OEM unlocking in developer options which since I am running 5.0.2 I read wouldn't be there. Is this correct?

What are my next steps or how do I test if twrp is actually working?

Btw big thanks for replying so quick.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Blu8:
Wait does twrp even work at all on 5.0.2? I think you might have to update to 5.1.1 because you definitely need to unlock the bootloader.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] lowender62:
I think it does. GT had a link on his Android Creations Page that showed root methods for 5.02 and 5.1 and also links to TWRP.

Would this help him out Blu8 ?

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Blu8:

Red bars

Hey guys, quick question. I just picked this up from T mobile a couple days ago. It was already on 5.1.1 software H63110l. Root went successful. But now there is a red bar at the top and bottom of the screen on the main screen. I'm assuming it's because T-Mobile knows I rooted it? Also com.tmobile.pr.adapt is constantly trying to get super user permissions. Does anyone know how to remove these red bars and T-Mobile from constantly trying to get super user permissions? Thanks so much

Marshmallow update

Wondering what people are doing with the 6.0 Marshmallow update. I'm on T-Mobile and it downloaded on my phone last night. I'm fully rooted on 5.1.1 using the method in this guide. So my couple questions are, do I need to fully unroot before trying to update? Should I wait to update, I don't know if there is even root for it yet? Or should I just wait patiently for one you awesome guys to make a rooted flashable zip that I can install with TWRP? Thanks for everything guys!

P.S. I see full unroot guides going to v10j. But mine is on v10l
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Telyx:
You have to be completely stock to take an OTA update. Stock recovery, unrooted, stock system partition, etc. (no modified files). There is root for MM--you need ADB & fastboot installed on your PC, though.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] wingsforit:
Hi. I have used this method to root my Lgh631 5.1.1. Now trying to unroot so that I can install update from tmobile. used SuperSU to remove root, but tmobile update still fails. Is there a way to undo what OneClickRoot has done without factory resetting my phone?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Telyx:
You can either download the kdz file for your phone and flash it with LG Flashtool or install LG Bridge on your PC and use it to go back to stock. Not sure if flashing the kdz file will wipe your phone; LG Bridge won't. I think the kdz file for MM is available now, but I'm not sure if LG Bridge has MM available as an update yet.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Telyx:
You would need a computer to flash the kdz, but yes, you can flash the T-Mobile kdz and wait for the update (unless the MM kdz is available). Same phone--you'll just have T-Mobile bloatware instead of MetroPCS bloatware.

Well today fcc law went into effect and they have to give us free Hotspot. On metro pcs we get 6gb then it slows after that. So I'm thinking of how to get unlimited Hotspot or use a VPN so they don't see our usage. Also do you think the stylo is worth 255 out the door with a case? I'm on the fence about getting it and spending that much on a phone.

i been using The Stylo for 2 weeks and i haven't had any issues at all and i'm very happy with it, I play very demanding game without a lag including Emulation PSP games (FF7 Crisis Core, Kingdom Hearts: BBS and some others), i use WiFi Tether Router for Unlimited Hotspot and only use my regular data plan (unlimited)...

Metro customer are lucky getting this phone at that price, us T-mobile user have to pay a little more for that same Device :( , if the device is worth getting? well that is up to the user and what the user needs.
