Mr Messi could you be so kind as in telling me what files i need to compile Twrp for the Lg Stylo 3 Plus Sir would very much be appreciative ?

From my search seems that redmi 4x share the same soc as the stylo 3 plus

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
I was thinking of upgrading to the stylo 3 plus. Then I thought naw , I have a 1080p screen resolution on my zmax pro for streaming content already.

The stylo 3 plus serious went away from the all buttons on the back like the stylo and stylo 2 plus.

I believe the root for the stylo 3 plus would be far down the road due to no fastboot oem unlock to flash twrp.

The stylo 2 plus runs like a champ. rooted on 7.0 Nougat.

Although the stylo 3 plus is a nice phone, there were no spec upgrades like the spec upgrade from the stylo to the stylo 2 plus.

stylo (quad core (4) 1..2ghz )

stylo 2 plus (octa core (8) 1.4ghz)

stylo 3 plus (octa core (8) 1.4ghz) ...-same as stylo 2 plus....

Ill purchase the stylo 4 plus on android "O' next year june 2018.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghet2rockuu:
stylo 3 plus Qualcomm Snapdragon 435 8940	stylo 2 plus Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 8937

Built-in storage

stylo 3 plus 32 GB

styol2 plus 16 GB

Maximum User Storage	3 +22.9 GB

2 +9 GB

LTE (FDD)	3 +Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 20

2 + Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12

3 + Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Compass

2+	Accelerometer, Compass

plus 3 is way better n smoother phone and lighter

and yes power button is on the side like it should be

what nonsense r u speaking lol
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMedina559:
The stylo 3 plus does have fastboot oem unlock and full access to fastboot ;)

The stylo 3 plus has a gyroscope, 1080p display, and otg support unlike the 2 plus.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
Again what one considers an upgrade another may not.

32 gb of internel storage. Adoptable solves that.

gyroscope. Xposed solves that

snapdragon 435 from 430.. upgrade to me 430 to at least 617.

Same clocked speeds.

I did mention the 1080p upgrade.

Thats the only upgrade in my opinion and many others.

Real life performance matters over spec sheets and benchmark scores.

My wife bought the stylo 3 plus and the performance wasn't significant enough to be considered an upgrade from my current rooted stylo 2 plus.

My wife wanted to trade her 3 plus for my 2 plus because she said her 3 plus lags and my phone perform s like a flagship lol.

Never nonsense ..Educated in my thinking..I don't follow the crowd nor jump on band wagons.

Im on an unlimited plan and I have all the lte bands needed for my geographical area.

---------- Post added at 03:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

Meaning the .kdz takes around 3-6 months to be released and I hate not having root ../I have a zmax pro that's UNROOTABLE and I just can't take a chance that LG took away the ability to flash twrp via fastboot. I read up on this..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMedina559:
I've also had the ZMax Pro as a temp replacement for my Stylo 2+, zte screwed that phone so bad. There's an extremely high chance the 3+ will be rooted just like the 1 & 2+
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghet2rockuu:
how is xpoed gnna add a gyroscop top ur phone hahahah gyroscope is hardware not a software hahaah yea educated alright anywho plus 3 is way better phone no lag here
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMedina559:
I think the gyroscope module is the one that uses the accelerometer and some other sensor to emulate a gyroscope..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
Exactly. I watch 360 videos and play Pokemon on my stylo 2 plus using the gyroemu.apk . I keep two backups via twrp.

My 6.0.1 Marshmallow stock deodexed, tweaked.

Also my 7.0 debloated stock backup.

Once Xposed comes to Nougat/Octapus, then ill have just one backup with all mods enabled like Marshmallow.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhjhjhjhjhjh:
XDA Xposed on Nougat YES!!!

In case anyone is unaware Xposed works on Nougat7.0-7.1

Raiderwill from that horrible ZTE Zmax Pro thread.. I finally got rid of that thing and want to again say: Thank You again for trying to help get that thing rooted..

Anyway.. I was (and still might) ready to pull the trigger on the Redmi Note 4 which is a badass phone but would not mind just going down to MetroPCS and snatching one of these if you think you have a shot at rooting this puppy over the next month or so.. Looks like the bootloader is unlockable, but are your hands truly tied until the kdz pops out of LG's womb?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] messi2050:
What's up raider :D not sure of that but if there is an available tester i can start testing flashing a custom recovery image to make sure the bootloader is unlocked as the t-mobile g6 can be unlocked too while it's not really unlocked.. if it worked out i can try out some ideas to get twrp working without waiting for the kdz (not completely sure if that will work as it gonna require alot of trying..) otherwise we will have to wait for the kdz to rollout.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosthaxx:
Just a thought.i got a lg stylo 2 plus but i looked into this and it didn't look like much was changed but cosmetics.smaller screen. Assuming that's the case in theory if you can unlock bootloader wouldn't the twrp for the Stylo 2 work assuming not much has changed and then install magisk.i could be wrong.i prefer the 2 personally cause bigger screen but ya something to try.worst case lg bridge usually fixes lg phones if you brick

No there is not, this is how you can root lg devices no other ways available, without a kdz from lg you can't know the kernel values so you will be never able to boot the kernel and to build a custom recovery, from my experience with lg stylo 2 plus, k20 plus and aristo i was able to expect the kernel values(single wrong value= recovery bootloop) and fortunately it worked from the first try so it was great and you should be happy for this :p xD

you could kill a google play services and google play market and bunch of others services on that phone that you dont use and update your apps once a month and after that disable google play market again which is major battery hog and it will make your battery last longer after freezing and disabling most of services regular battery last for 2 days and i only have 3 services runinng in the background rest of them is disabled or frozen.
