LG G Stylo (Boost Mobile) [UPDATED July 27]

Do not use this root method for 5.1.1!! You will get a soft brick and there is no way to recover! If your on 5.0.2 and did not take the update then you can proceed to this root method.
Here is the untouched update to 5.1.1:
udpate.zip
UPDATE: 6/25
BOOST MOBILE HAS RELEASED AN UPDATE! The update is around 413MB. I pulled the update and will be updating it soon. If you are rooted do not update the phone. It could cause a brick and or unroot the device! So far I just found a new radio.img inside of it. I'll check it out later this afternoon.
Hello everyone,
I wanted to make this thread for the LG G Stylo (Boost Mobile) cause I could not find any forums or any post about this device!
Anyways if you are looking for a ROOT method for this device visit here:

Here is how to get into STOCK RECOVERY:
Code:
1) Turn the device off
2) While holding the phone on, press and hold VOLUME -(DOWN) at the same time
3) When you see the LG boot logo hurry up and let go of the VOLUME -(DOWN) and hold it again for a few sec (kinda tricky)
4) Then this will get you into recovery mode
Here is how to get into DOWNLOAD MODE:
Code:
1) Turn the device off
2) While holding the VOLUME +(UP) key plug in the device into the pc
3) A screen should pop up and press the VOLUME +(UP) key until you see DOWNLOAD MODE with the progress bar
4) Done
NOTE: Pull out the battery once your done in DOWNLOAD MODE to get out of it and power the device like normal.
SYSTEM DUMP:
NOTE: These files are from 5.0.2 NOT 5.1.1!

Just tried this root method on the TMO version of this and out didn't start. Curiously tried the manual method for the G3/G4 and i get a device offline when doing an ADB device list.

Make sure you install the right drivers. I had to install the drivers and then restart my laptop. It took me like 2-3 times to finally root the device with the Graphical UI method. On a side note I had to toggle MTP and the other one and then let the drivers install for each one. I then put the phone into charge mode and it finally rooted.

I will give it one more try tonight. I had uninstalled and re installed the LG drivers a few times. I can connect fine to my L90 and my G2. But for some reason this thing shows connected but "offline" in ADB. Toggled back and forth between MTP and PTP a few times too. No response when in download mode ekther.

Any luck Cahiatt on the root? My LG Flex has an issue that I have to send it back for repairs and I've been considering ordering the Stylo. Just need root though for all the stuff I like to do.
Thanks!

Haven't gone back to it yet. Ended up on other chores for the weekend.

Well the short answer is this worked on the TMO version also.
I don't have a long answer. For whatever reason when I tried again it just worked. There must have been something software related hanging on my desktop PC that was interfering with the port used by ADB or who knows what. I just went back, plugged the phone in and it worked. Woo Hoo!!!!

Can anyone with the tmobile stylo confirm the 2gb ram and 13mp cam?
Im considering this over the g4, more budget friendly.
I have a few questions.
Hows the lcd? Does it show alot of pixelation? Im hearing its pretty good for 720p.
Does it have a notification led?
I know it has lollipop but is it 5.0, 5.0.2 or 5.1?
Pretty good specs for under $300 id say.

LCD is pretty good. I came from a G2 and don't notice any pixelation. Text and video quality is very good. It isn't as bright outdoors and doesn't have auto brightness but am pleased with it.
Camera is 13mp. Pictures seem better than my G2. Better focus.
Does have notification LED.
Running 5.0.2
It does have 2gb of RAM and performs similarly to my G2 before. WiFi and cell reception actually seem better also.
I think it is a pretty solid device for the price. I actually wish it were a little smaller but it is still relatively thin and light for the size.

i might pick one up today. anybody know if twrp is available so we can have a backup in case of a softbrick? hoping xda make a section for this device.

As far as TWRP no one has compiled it for this device yet. The device is pretty new so I would give it some time.

heres the mounts for the tmobile lg g stylo.

and heres a system dump for the tmobile variant. might help get development going.
mega link: https://mega.co.nz/#!R1VwiLiA!GJ2O1Tw-pVw2P8QEHcpM0c464Qlq6Ro8CZty0YAkNs4

I took the plunge yesterday and got the T-Mobile variant. So far, it's been pretty nice. I would ding the camera app a star, though, since it doesn't seem to offer any manual exposure controls. You can choose between standard and HDR mode, and if HDR is off, you can chose off/manual/auto flash. I'm guessing they don't want to steal the G4's thunder. That being said, it takes very nice pictures, and the autofocus is nice and fast.
This morning, I had one glitch: Google Maps and Google Play Music weren't playing any sounds, even though I could hear sound effects when I tapped the screen. I rebooted and the problem went away, and haven't had any further trouble.
I like the screen - it's nice and bright and has good contrast. Sure, it's 720p instead of qHD, but it's plenty sharp for me. The phone seems nice and snappy, and doesn't seem laggy at all. It's nice that the T-Mobile version has 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage.
From what I've seen so far, the battery should hold up nicely. However, the supplied 1.2A charger seems to run a bit hot. I'll be using the 2A charger that came with my Avant instead. I did make sure to unlock the Avant before upgrading; its supplied app unlocked the phone without any hassle.
Overall, for a budget phablet, it's quite good. I had been considering a ZTE Zmax, but I'm glad I held out for the Stylo, even if I rarely use the stylus.
I'm going to have to update my signature.

The lcd is my biggest issue. Even for 720p hd its got alot of pixelation on the fonts. My moto e 2015 actually renders better. :/ i assume this is becuase its a large lcd at 5.7". Wish lg would of gave it 1080p.
Its strong points are the camera and the overall design of the device, very sleek compared to the g3 or g4. Especially the back of the phone. Little choppy performance to but i suspect this is from the 5.0.2 memory leak.
Ill test for a few days before i decide if ill keep it or not. Good budget device though.

Anyone knows if the boot loader is unlocked? I expect the MetroPCS and T-Mobile variants to have one.

Could I also get the output of adb shell cat proc/partitions and a backup of the recovery image. I'm going to unpack and repack the image which will cause the signature to change. If the bootloader is unlocked the image will still boot even after the signature has been modified.

Great to see more people on board. I'm almost positive the boot loader is locked by default. I tried to erase my laf and see if it would boot into fast boot but that was a no go. Let me know if anyone can access fast boot?

Sounds like the same thing on the G4. What exactly happens after LAF is removed? I'm surprised the Send_Command root method worked for this device as it didn't for the G4.

When I removed laf it goes into the first download screen and says hold volume up to get into download mode or something like that. So I keep holding it and it does nothing. I tried to throw in some fast boot comments while its stuck on that screen and it does nothing. One thing I did find interesting is when you boot into stock recovery there is an option to reboot into bootloader but it just reboots the phone like normal.

Partition Dump

I'm trying to create a partition dump, specifically to have a backup of my efs partition. My first 6p had it's efs partition corrupted (while stock, unrooted, locked bl). I've got my new 6p in hand, bl unlocked, twrp installed, and chainfires systemless root up and running. I was trying to follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450045
but i cannot access / using any file explorer. The SU prompt never appears. I tried running cat /proc/emmc, and that was a no go as well. I was able to get the partition list, but only in mmcblkxxxx format. I would like the names, so that i can properly organize the dump. If anybody could point me in the right direction, that'd be awesome! Thanks in advance.

Never mind, I've found it. For other's reference, the correct path is:
/dev/block/platform/soc.0/f9824900.sdhci/by-name.
Hope this helps someone in the future

hope it helps to anyone
also i still loking for a temp root or full root acces without bootloader unlock , if anyone have this kind of solution please share

Wait....I don't quite understand....does this unlock the bootloader? If so, how do you push it there without unlocking first??

(I think) in short what this does is enable OEM unlocking found in developer options, if you don't have access which has actually happened to me once before because of the first CAF 6.0 test we had.
The important part is the adb code used I believe.

As you can see "mmcblk0p18" belongs to splash partiton.
I used "dd" command to dump splash.img on sdcard with adb shell.
But now what?
How to edit it?
I've searched for many hours but came up with mediatek or HTC thereads which is pretty annoying
Tools I've tried so far--> Android Kitchen, Kernel Kitchen, Logo Builder.
Please help me through this.. I desperately want to make a splash image for my device.
Thanks.

HELP ME RUN THIS SCRIPT AND BACK UP YOUR ZE550KL GPT.bin

please help me run this emmc dumper batch file on your ZE 550KL (it requires adb access on your phone)
and help backup and share your gpt.bin file with me.
The program is here. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B39xYnt0Q7O0cWQwVlRXVFNIWHM
Thank you.

please can anyone try this application Partitions Backup https://youtu.be/sikZ3IBAdew on their phone to backup all the hidden system partitions like sbl1, tz. etc. and post a screenshot of the partitions that are available for backup?
i'm hoping there's a chance the msimage.mbn and MPRG.mbn may be listed for backup. in which case you would be saving a life.

No one really should upload you full dump of their mmcblk0. It contains very sensitive informations like IMEI, whole /data and more...
BTW there are no msimage and MPRG partitions.

No one really should upload you full dump of their mmcblk0. It contains very sensitive informations like IMEI, whole /data and more...
BTW there are no msimage and MPRG partitions.

I don't want the whole thing. It will be too large anyway. I have the stock rom.
I need the files i already outlined.
BTW i read somewhere that the gpt.bin can be renamed to the msimage as they both contain the same thing i.e. the partition table

Needless to say, what exactly is wrong with my trying to revive my device? i bought this device with my hard earned money just 3 months ago.
if i ask for help and nobody answers, so be it. its my prerogative to ask.
Could have sworn this is XDA and i'm allowed to hack my own device if possible..

It is not your "prerogative" to ask. Where in XDA's terms and services did you get that from? Continuously spamming threads won't suddenly compel someone to do the things you ask.
