TWRP should prompt you to root after it's installed. Yes you can flash ROMs after you install TWRP.

I use CM13 nightlies.
If you're going to use AOSP ROMs make sure you backup your APN settings since you are using a different network than Sprint.

thanks, I've never flashed a custom kernel or modem before, only full ROMs... I'll do some research - any suggestions on which to use or what to check for?

No proplem in that ..its easy to avoid . just wait
Is 2.1.0.13 can be rooted? Im on 2.1.0.11 and not yet updated. Any info please.
I'm on 2.1.0.11 and custom recovery. The new update just won't install. Keeps failing in recovery with file not found. Tried from sdcard1 as well but still fails. Is it because of custom recovery?

Which rom you are running ? If you are running any s7 port or note 7 port rom then definitely fingerprint won't work at all.

If its still in a stock rom and you didnt root it, then maybe its a hardware failure.
Take it to the customer service.

Hello,
I recently unlocked my L720 using the SSU app, I'm currently running the stock 5.0.1 rom on the NG2 modem.
If I flash a custom rom like Cyanogenmod, will I lose my unlock?

No, just don't use Odin except for flashing TWRP.

Thanks, so to keep the unlock, I only flash in TWRP?
Also which one do you think is more stable, CM13 or 12.

12
I flashed CyanogenMod 12.1 and gapps, but I can't access data or send/receive calls or texts.
I changed the APN settings for the sim I'm using (FreedomPop), but it won't let me search for a Network Operator.
Why do you even need unlock? Freedompop is on the Sprint network. I prefer TouchWiz so I can't really help you on what AOSP ROM works best.
Hi guys and thank you.

i would like to UNROOT it and install Pie os.
