[LG G Stylo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Dark Bulbasaur:
So, I think I've managed to salvage my bricked Stylo, I somehow also managed to root my Fiance's LG G Stylo that's on the 6.0 update... this is a guide on how to flash a TWRP Recovery I made of a rooted LG G Stylo that is running Android 6.0 This can get you out of a brick or just give your spare phone root access.

Since I can't find any ways to fix this problem on the internet I'll post what I did here so hopefully I can get some other people out of deep water with their phone.

Stylo.zip​

I'm going to assume that if you are following these instructions you have already downloaded and extracted the .zip file named Stylo onto your desktop.

All of these files are in the Stylo folder, so you should only have to download Stylo.zip

Minimal ADB & Fastboot installer

LG Phone Drivers

TWRP Backup file

recovery.img

1. Install minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.1_setup into the folder you extracted Stylo.zip in

(Install PhoneDrivers if you have not already)

2. Enable USB Debugging on your phone

(If you are boot looping, you should still be able to boot into the bootloader with

minimal adb fastboot just plug it in and let it do it's bootloop while you try

booting into the bootloader really quick, this may take some trial and error)

3. Launch MAF32.exe

(This is Minimal ADB and Fastboot)

4. In the window that pops up type:

adb devices

It should look like this:

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo> adb devices

List of devices attached

LGMS6318bb1ce9a device

5. Next you will need to type:

adb reboot bootloader

Now, the powershell screen should look like this:

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo> adb devices

List of devices attached

LGMS6318bb1ce9a device

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo> adb reboot bootloader

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo>

6. Once you are in the bootloader type:

fastboot boot recovery.img

(If you opened the PowerShell window by holding shift and using the right click menu,

the recovery.img file should load on its own, your PowerShell window should now look something like this)

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo> adb devices

List of devices attached

LGMS6318bb1ce9a device

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo> adb reboot bootloader

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo> fastboot boot recovery.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.367s]

booting...

OKAY [ 0.011s]

finished. total time: 0.380s

finished. total time: 0.379s

PS C:\Users\Hyperion\Desktop\Stylo>

7. Once TWRP boots up on your device you will need to navigate to Backup

Uncheck everything but boot

Start the backup process

(We are making a backup of boot

so we can take the name of the folder

it makes in /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS

and copy/paste that to the rooted backup file.

TWRP will create a backup of your

boot animation that contains your PHONE ID #

In my case it created a file named LGMS6318bb1ce9a )

8. Open your sdcard contents on your computer

navigate to /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS

Copy the name of the new folder that was created (Mine is LGMS6318bb1ce9a)

Open the Stylo folder on your Desktop \Desktop\Stylo\TWRP\BACKUPS

Paste the new folder name over the folder titled (Paste Here)

Overwrite the folder in /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS that contains

the boot animation with the new folder from \Desktop\Stylo\TWRP\BACKUPS

9. If you are not in TWRP on your phone any more, repeat steps 3. - 6.

10. Once in TWRP click WIPE in the top right, and Swype to Factory Reset

(Unless your backup file is being loaded from Internal Storage)

11. Navigate to RESTORE in TWRP, find your Backup file in the /TWRP/BACKUPS directory

LEAVE EVERYTHING CHECKED!

(If you uncheck anything the phone will not be rooted upon restore of the backup)

(Alternatively you can uncheck Data and have a fresh install of 6.0 with no root.)

The rooted backup should be installing 4144mb worth of data.

I left a few apps on the desktop that I figured would help some people out

Hope this worked for you, getting root on these phones is a *****.
