Sorry I should be more specific, after install and trying to adb reboot recovery it's the ded droid
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
I understood that dead android seems like stock recovery not twrp so I assume it didn't flash.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] xantanion:
says they're sent and reboots to dl mode and says twrp is flashed, still no go with adb reboot recovery
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
Have you tried flashing it manually? That's what I'm getting at don't use the script. Go in download mode and run send command manually and paste dd commands.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] xantanion:
when I do this and use the DD commands after it just pops up a # nothing more, no other info or letting me know it pushed or flashed any files.

Try following this guide here http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-g4/development/tool-one-click-twrp-root-t3172936 as the zip is the same modified to work with stylo. Check drivers etc
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Iluvandroidfone:
Can anyone give me clear instructions on how to start the process of adding twrp to my LG G Stylo (This Metropcs phone came with 5.1.1 and I have never rooted it). I have already enabled OEM unlock in the developer options. If anyone can give me the step by step instructions from start to finish or we have any youtube tutorial. I believe this twrp installation will also root my phone? This is my first LG phone that I want to mess with so I don't want to brick it. Thanks to you all.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
You have to enter recovery manually.

W-A-R-N-I-N-G!!!!!

You must backup your phone using LG backup before doing so!

Press and hold volume down, and press power until you see LG logo and release the power button and press again.

You will see a warning your phone will be wiped. Press yes twice.

If TWRP was flashed, you will see TWRP, if not, your phone will be wiped and you have to flash the recovery again.

I did same thing on my G4 and now it is rooted.

---------- Post added at 10:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------

This is for G4, but it may be applicable for G Stylo 5.1.x if OEM Unlock option is available in Developers options.

http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-g4/development/tool-one-click-twrp-root-t3172936

Make sure you edit installTWRP with notepad (save as NO FILE EXTENSION) and replace the whole line with the following:

dd if=/data/media/0/recovery.img bs=8912 seek=11968 count=3072 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0

You may want to copy latest SuperSU from chainfire to your memory card first (64GB OK).

What is the gps fix that's been alluded to in this thread?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
i believe its regarding the gps not working in unjustified devs first couple of tries at cm 12.1 but he fixed it in his latest release (7/14)
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
OP should make an update since root is available again with 5.1.1 out of the box.

Yes, I did an update on corp store floor demo unit and I found Enable OEM Unlock option is available in Dev options like G4.

Now OP has to do a modification in installTWRP file so the one click install TWRP will work with H631 and MS631.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Iluvandroidfone:
I am still not following how to install twrp on my phone. I had only rooted and installed twrp on my samsung phones and seems very newbie to these new things on my LG phone. I am thinking I should wait for some very easy root/twrp that emerge in future. I am just not following the way things are done right now by changing the commands in note pad etc etc etc. Just feel so stupid to not follow the instructions as I just feel I am going to brick my phone. Or I should just wait for a youtube tutorial where it is shown step by step where I can follow the instructions. I miss my Note 4 now when it was so easy to root and install twrp and custom roms. I have always used Odin and never used adb commands.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] xantanion:
Yeah. Still didn't work from 2 different computers using install twrp file it says it xfers and installs but it doesn't manual mode does nothing as well. No idea why it's being such a poo face but it is
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Afteraffekt:
Full GPS is still not fixed in 7/14, only battery saving mode using the network which is inaccurate and slow. Full GPS or asisited GPS will cause a hot reboot. He said several days after 7/14 he had a fix but have not seen this fix yet.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
just to make sure before editing/updating the OP:

1- Enable OEM Unlock under Dev. Options

2- You follow the One Click TWRP by @ Unjustified Dev to flash the TWRP.

3- Manually Boot into TWRP.

4- Flash SuperSU from chainfire while in TWRP.

i thinking flashing KDZ file my self and give it a try this weekend meaning either today or tomorrow but if the new method works ill be testing it still and update the OP.

If you did something different please let me know.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Afteraffekt:
I am having issues, I can find numerous accounts where people have gotten Xposed working on their 5.1.1 LG G Stylo. I have tried the Xposed Helper, I have manually deleted the Weather and Smart Cover apps, and cleared Dalvik and cache, but regardless of what I do the phone gets stuck on the Tmobile screen after flashing Xposed. Anything I can do, or am missing? I have TWRP and back ups.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Iluvandroidfone:
Can someone tell me how do I flash twrp using windows laptop. I can't use Flashify app cuz I am not rooted. So I have to use Windows laptop and use adb commands but I have never flahsed twrp with adb (I have only used odin before). I would like to get step by step instructions from start to finish so that I don't mess up this phone. I have already installed LG drivers on my laptop.

Thanks a bunch.

He said on another forum that it will be a few weeks before he releases the next update that was least week August 3
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Afteraffekt:
Yea I know, was just informing the guy I quoted that GPS was still not 100%

Edit, are there any downloads for 5.0.2? I am on 5.1.1, but have TWRP, my 5.0.2 backup got deleted and I would like to go back to 5.0.2 for Xposed.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
You don't need to go back to 5.0.2 for closed. Try romracers version from here http://xdaforums.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Afteraffekt:
Ive tried every way I can think of. I have used XPosed Helper for LG devices, fresh installs the works. Using SDK22 v70 32bit Xposed Flash. It flashes, just never gets past the Tmobile screen, even after 45 minutes.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
I could never get it working on stock. I did on cm fine. But I have a guess as towhy .... In several sections of forums for closed it mentions a modified odex file type that dex2oat needs to be modified for. Therefore on devices that have that xposeds dex2oat can't decipher the ldex and boot loops
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Afteraffekt:
I suppose, I just know some people have succeeded here, so I assume they are on 5.0.2, hence why I want to try it. Oh well. Big let down really. Cyanogen Mod doesn't support Knock On, WIfi Calling, or High Accuracy GPS, and will never support 2/3 of those. Shame really.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Knock on is possible, had it working on my old device on custom roms. WiFi calling is in beta. And the high accuracy GPS is just us trying to fox the bugs

can i get the stock recovery by just changing that to recovery.img?

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
LG aren't compatible with Samsung Odin. You will be able to flash it from download mode using send command tool would be nice if someone added a GUI to it for now it's a manual process from command prompt or terminal for linux.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] AP2FTW:
ah ok...thanks for the clarification...my only other smart phone was a samsung and i sort of assumed odin might be for all manufacturers. got any more info you could share or link regarding the "send command tool" that is something done via adb right?

I was informed knock on uses gesture control with the proximity sensor and is an intense battery. Wifi Calling is in beta, but was omitted from our CM12.1 build completely, along with gesture controls.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Riku Azhurlar:
Knock on is an intense battery drain for sure. The WiFi calling is ommited by the ROM maker but could be added.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Afteraffekt:
I just hope we geta new build with LED Working, GPS at 100%, and Wifi Calling and Gestures enabled. I really do love Knock On, and wish it were easier to implement LG and OnePlus's methods that use little power use to operate.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] PsychoPomp:
I have a question about how LP reads from the sd card. Certain apps of mine (like DroidEdit, Discoverer and Docs2Go to name a few are not reading the contents of my external memory. I can write to it just fine but cannot read existing data. From my searches I've turned up some issues with LP and sd cards but haven't found a definite fix. The main bulk of info seems to be about KitKat and sd write issues that were supposed to be fixed in LP. Any insight would be appreciated. I can make it work by using the internal card but i wanted to see if there was a fix so that I didn't have to do that. Or will the KitKat fix work for LP sd issues as well?

Thanks in advance. Haven't messed with rooting too much last few years as I rooted my GS2, put infamous resurrection on it and forgot about it til just a couple weeks ago when I got my stylo.

I am rooted and running the stock 5.1.1. My issues were happening before i rooted.

And thanks to Unjustified Dev and Draken and everyone else who brought stable root to the stylo

Ok. You downloaded the arm64 version? I have the t-mobile variant if that makes a difference.

no i used the armv7 version because i read this "The chip is 32/64 bit compatible , but LG decided to run it in 32bit mode only which makes it armv7 compatible. " here http://androidforums.com/threads/xposed.927153/#post-7036409

Are you using flashify to flash twrp?

Sorry should have explained better. I had 5.1.1 out of the box and I've been trying the method that works with the g4 to flash twrp then the supersu zip.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] thereal_antiHackmasta:
I'm not familiar with that method. Has it been tested working for stylo?
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] Unjustified Dev:
It's been patched by LG for the Stylo. I assume G Stylo and G4 have different dev teams therefore patches may or may not get added.

[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
LG usually releases sources a week or two before the ota so the ota probably hasn't been pushed out yet.

KDZ for metro pcs V10i has not been released yet. I got the one for t-mobile so I'll be posting a flashable zip in about an hour for that.

The update is probably to patch "stagefright" since LG said they would be patching it and as usual to block root and lock the bootloader, but this is just a guess.
[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] GameTheory.:
Alright guys here is the flashable zip for the new metro pcs & t-mobile V10i 5.1.1 update.

It's the same link and instructions as the previous update. If you have the latest twrp recovery already installed you can skip step #2...
