Moving apps to sd

I use apps2sd and it works great
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
Guys feel free to post any bugs you find in the new build, I'm aware of those bugs:

Data connection

Wifi

Bluetooth

Sensors

Fingerprint

Nfc

if you find anymore bugs feel free to post it here so i can debug it.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Shadowsoul Asriel:
I'll flash when WiFi, Bluetooth and fingerprint fuctionallity is added.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
well it depends on the support i get to fix the left bugs since only [MENTION=6911759]NMR2D2156[/MENTION] was interested in supporting the work :p
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] greentag:
The camera cannot take pictures in quick succession. Meaning, if I take a picture, and try to take one right after, the camera button gets grayed out and you can't take pictures until you close the camera app and reopen it.

When I have low signal, the stock rom, and another phone I have, register the signal as just low, but cm13 doesn't show that I have signal at all.

That's all I have right now except for the obvious.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
i don't have the first problem just took about 20 pics without stopping it's working great for me except the video recording i can't find the recorded file i'm using the stock lineage camera, yea i noticed this one but since the network is still work i didn't give it attention.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] greentag:
Ok, right on. I understand about the network. Honestly, it's a nit pick. As long as you can make calls and text, I could care less what the bar says, lol.

I have no doubt you'll get video working. Keep up the success!
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] NMR2D2156:
I hope others will join in. Creating this Rom for us, it takes time/work and certainly justifies support.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lilrich17892:
Played around for a little bit. I found vibration, sensors, data, SD card wasnt mounting, some settings FC, audio FX FCs, tap to wake, wifi. Will dig around more and see what else I find.

Thanks for your appreciation, i hope so atm i suspended the work until i see more support.

NP anything I can do to help just let me know. Don't have alot of knowledge in certain areas so I can only test bugs and report back. Anything I can help with let me know. And thanks for your support for this device. Huge milestones have been made and I greatly appreciate it.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Rmontoya83:
Figures.. Hmmm I Can't say I'm surprised to see the towel being thrown in already. But I knew it was coming.

I suggest people stop donating.this guy is a joke not a Dev. Save your money and upgrade your device.

I deleted all your repos. I will do this from scratch so no credit is due to you. We have some smart people who are good people whom will contribute free of charge.

So wait I thought you couldnt root/twrp the lgms550?

This whole thread is about rooting the metro and T-Mobile variants. Did you read the first post?
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] WASasquatch:
I am assuming any version of no-verity works? It states 2.1 but that version isn't even available anymore. The latest will do fine?

Clearly. This in regard to the various plethora of topics stating you cannot root the MetroPCS Stylo 2 Plus and being cautious... Besides this topic there is only one other unofficial website ripping these resources that tells you how. Every other topic ends in "You cannot root" to sum it up...
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
yes any version should work just fine.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] JvaOneShotzXprX:
To be honest, Messi isn't obligated to do anything if he doesn't feel like it, or if he feels that its not worth it, and that's his right. If he feels he is not getting enough support and decides to drop this project, theres absolutely nothing you can do by b**ching.

Now, imo, Developing is not about the money or support you get, its about learning, gaining experience, seeing your "baby" grow and showing everyone what it came out to be and that you were the mind behind it.

When I was developing for other devices I barely got any donations ($1 - $5 TOTAL) until I was actually finished and the people were satisfied with the results, and then would they start donating. I honestly enjoyed the appreciation more than the money. A few extra dollars aren't going to make you rich.

I had a hunch from the start that something like this was going to happen since the the last incident trying to build lineage. I had my $20 dollars ready to send, (secretly) willing to donate one of my 3 SSDs for this project, or let him use my Desktop to get builds done (probably in like 30 mins - 1 hr) but I saw some behavior that I didn't like starting with the the Incident when Messi and Rmontoya first tried to collaborate on the closed thread, so I just wanted to see where this all went before I put any resources down. Looks like my hunch was right.

I obviously don't have the time and energy to contribute too much technical support, me being a full time video game developer, so as I started to see some red flags, I decided I would just sit back and watch.

[MENTION=4929843]messi2050[/MENTION] , you were this close ---> | | , your work is so promising, really some impressive work, especially having to do this from scratch without a device tree/vendor tree. With a finished version of Lineage I would have been able to port ROMs like RessurectionRemix, Slim, Maybe Paranoid, or some custom kernels in my spare time.

[MENTION=4929843]messi2050[/MENTION] , [MENTION=5105245]Rmontoya83[/MENTION] , If you decide to continue, you have my support (not talking monetary here, just saying support in general), and if any of this offends any of you, don't take it personally, im just expressing my honest opinion here :)
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Rmontoya83:
No offence taken. Im completely new to building. Having the device tree, kernel , vendor is an easy task when making a rom for a supported device. Sucks you have to have a premium phone. To get any support. There are a lot of issues below the surface like everyone says two sides to a story. people that know me can tell you I'm real and a stand up guy.

Your right about making a rom [MENTION=4929843]messi2050[/MENTION] if he doesn't want to make then one then don't.

I have put a lot of money as well as time and effort in just getting root and twrp on this device. Did I get a thank you he'll no.

My name was listed maybe a day as a contributor for god sake I had to ask! What does that tell you?

And quite frankly I really don't care. This device would not be where it is if it weren't for my self creating a bounty thread and finding the financial means to bring support here. I made the call and few answered little did I know who I was calling to help.

I have seen peoples true colors and I can tell you for certain that I'm not the bad guy here... I'm not here to point fingers I'm hear to tell you all open your eyes and do some research on whom your give your money too.

If that makes me a bad person you all can p*** off.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] JvaOneShotzXprX:
You are 100% right. Im not one to judge, but It just shows how a lot of devs unfortunately look at money as a goal and not a bonus, especially in the Video game industry.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] greentag:
I had talked to Montoya about this very issue. "Support" translates to "give me money."

Like, my momma didn't raise no fool, and I've been around the block more than once...

He covered his butt by saying "nobody has to donate to me guys." Get outta here with that. I wish the rules were a little more strict, but they're not, or else I would have already reported dude to admins.

You're correct in saying no one has to give us anything. I am not entitled by any means. I am also not a worm dangling on a hook waiting for a fish.

I got curious, looked at his profile, and he's done this before. Again, "support" means "I want money."
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Infect_Ed:
It especially sucks because I'm kinda caught in the middle. I'm trying to learn (its been a rough road with no absolute "go to guide" available. [MENTION=3301588]rmontoya[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4929843]messi2050[/MENTION] are both good ppl. They both mean no harm. They just can't play in the same sandbox. Messi and rich got a lot of work done. A LOT! This doesn't have to stop here at a dead halt. If we all pitch in a little bit of time we could get an operational rom working. Hope we can all put aside the bull**** and get it done. [MENTION=4929843]messi2050[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3301588]rmontoya[/MENTION]... You are both cool in my book.

Ok so I've followed all of the steps in the original post but when i check my phone with with a root checker app it says my phone isnt rooted. Is there something else i have to do??
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] JvaOneShotzXprX:
If you have SuperSU and the SU binaries installed (If it doesnt ask to install SU binaries when you open SuperSU) then you are rooted. Otherwise go back and check you did all the steps correctly.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Aeorsyn:
Its sad really, i followed progress since the bounty. I had a different account and lost the password. Things for this device were looking up, to me personally the hardware/screen make this a premium device, probably the best phone i ever had. Its more like the mainstream hyped up phones get he attention. Really expensive nametag and mediocre hw. Like the cheapest macbook still being 999.9 when you can get insanely better hw without that name tag and put osx86 on it and volia you have a 2000 dollar mac book pro.

Its sad to see people get into arguments everywhere, but especially for the progress of an overpowered device.

You guys did amazing work on getting that root up, i mustve flashed it second day. That was such a huge thing now and then that i cannot complain about roms.. Theres hundreds of devices that dont even get this far.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] NMR2D2156:
I do not feel bad about any money I have donated to Messi. He has done a good bit of work for us. I am dissapointed that he does not have the desire to finish a ROM on this device, but its his decision and its understood. At least the bounty that was set and delivered did get us root.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] culot:
Donations are a nice bonus, but juvenile behavior likes Messi's is ridiculous. Holding open-source repos hostage until a tantrum is satisfied is shameful. I don't know why I am surprised dude has clowned out again.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ghet2rockuu:
yup
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
Open source > that's correct but it's my work and my time creating the device tree and debugging it and I'm free to keep it myself or throw it to trash and if you think os =free then you have to review your information and ask yourself if that's true then why you are paying for your device, i don't care with your opinion in me or the others you can keep it to yourselves, that's the humans nature when things doesn't go their way and they don't get what they want they start arguing, you can start working on it yourself, no one holds your hands :p
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] 5toneyboy72:

[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] WASasquatch:
Just wanted to come back and let you know I am thrilled all works. Data, wifi, etc. The only issue i dont know how to overcome is installing OTA updates? I selected the option which said TWRP would be less likely to interfere with system udates but the jan 2017 OTA sends me to the TWRP. Do you install them via TWRP or is it just not possible?
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MandoH:
Won't work. Need stock recovery
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Aeorsyn:
Use lg bridge on pc to update
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ghet2rockuu:
then ull lose the rom installed !
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Aeorsyn:
Yeah hes going to lose rom twrp and root. Just saying if you want the ota but dont want to flash stock recovery use lg bridge and itll do it for you, and using the same twrp/root method will get you back to where you were. If its the update before 7.0 that is
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
Don't be so sure ;)
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] WASasquatch:
Huh seems like something to add to the main thread. Original stylo can update just fine with TWRP, as well as my 4 other phones of various brands.

And I am not sure how installing the version I want and than following these steps helps when these steps returns my phone back to base rom, and vulnerable.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Rmontoya83:
Don't see how that's possible it performs a system check before flash unless you modify the update script like i did to update mine.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Aeorsyn:
After you do ota via bridge, flash twrp and root. Then youll have twrp and root running on software # MS55010p and build #MXB48T with patch level 2017/01/01

As in doing those 2 things after ota (flashing twrp and root)wont revert you back to stock builds, that being said i am pretty sure we will need a new root and recovery once nougat happens though.

If your confused about what the current status of ota's and 7.0 being released its because that last update, the one stated above being 554mb was initially labled by some articals and sites as thought to be 7.0 but opon installation it informs you that its just bug/security fixes for 6.0.1

Supposidly some people in indonesia have gotten 7.0-7.1 updates on their stylo 2 plus's but i have not.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] WASasquatch:
Uhm. It did. I've done these steps twice now. First time, back at stock ROM. Used LG UP and flashed TWRP and it gives me "Your device software can't be checked for corruption", boots into TWRP, flash Su, and ecnryption, restart and boom, base ROM. The directions tell you to click yes twice at original LG screen to get into TWRP for the first time. These options are factory reset. But if I click no, it restarts the device normally, and not into recovery. This is the Metro Varient. But yeah, twice now not sure what option to not click to prevent this as the only mention of deleting everything was from the white LG screen before landing at TWRP for first time. Mind you, this phone came broken. It was their only Stylo 2 Plus in after returning the ZTE Max Pro (which doesn't work with PDANet). When they opened it up to show me how it works, it was softbricked and he had to to fix it on the computer there. Out of a sealed box. Lol
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Aeorsyn:
Im not sure then, this is the metro one as well. Your using the 2nd build in first post right? After you update and reflash what software versions and build # does about phone show
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
If you are on the second build choosing yes won't wipe your data.

[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Kilroy5150:
I can't tell if my last post made it but i'm having trouble getting any of it to work.

I get a null error when trying anything in ADB. It's not initially mentioned what mode should be in when USB is connected or is USB Debugging should be enabled. I know the phone's drivers are in because the device manager is clean with no errors, the Stylo 2 PLus is mentioned in the mobile devices on the list.

ADB reboot gets null error.

What part does LG Bridge software play? Does it have to be running while doing any of this or does it just install extra drivers?

I did this sort of thing YEARS ago but i'm not in the loop so, sometimes, i need things spelled out to me.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MandoH:
If it's reading null is because your phone is off. Should be in fastboot mode when using ADB commands.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Kilroy5150:
Nope, not even. My phone has never been "off" any time i tried to use ADB. Only someone who is completely new would try it with the phone off. FastBoot mode is from Down+Cable attach and it's got that REALLY small lettering. I'm not new to this sort of thing, just to this phone...

One could say it's the cable but no. If i put the phone into "debugging" mode it will boot ADB, it just won't accept the unlock command. Then again, no one mentioned using debugging mode from the first page so i assumed it can't be used for the whole process.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] messi2050:
Then it's the driver and yes usb debugging & oem unlock are required.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Kilroy5150:
Yeah, i wanted to go there too but it's on the device list. And unless the Stylo 2 Plus has multiple listings, it's not that.

Attachments added...Is anything missing?
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Kilroy5150:
It was the OEM unlock. When i was in developer options my eyes sorta just went right past it. Once that was done, the rest was something of a breeze.

Thanks for spelling it out for me :good:
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MandoH:
Developer Settings> check>> Enable Unlock OEM and USB debugging should be enabled also as Messi mentioned.
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
For adb and fastboot commands to work on windows, the usb developer option must be enabled and the oem unlock must be checked. Lastly when connected to the computer make sure your phone ask you to remember your computer with a pop up on your phone . If it doesn't automatically then open a command prompt type adb kill-server then adb devices.

Edit ..your phone option should be on (PTP) mode. not MTP.

hope this helps..
[LG Stylo 2 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MandoH:
Yes. That Is correct info for the previous guy. Hope he has enough info to get it to work. I've been around flashing for years now. Nexus devices. New to this LG. Lol

Awesome! I got a good deal on a Ultra book at the Microsoft Store, which should be arriving on Thursday. As soon as I get it i'm dual booting Ubuntu on it, already checked that it didn't void the warranty so I don't have to boot from a slow External drive, instead I can take advantage of the SSD. Lets make things happen ;)
