Yo, I also picked up today a Stylo 3 from Boost and would be happy to help you out. Used to work for radioshack back in the day and even a crappy little wireless store that's still in business, even though the Shack has all but dried up. Seems smaller is sometimes better eh?
Let me know what you can offer, as I'm all about rooting this thing and making it do fun stuff. Already tryin to cellmapper around the area where nobody has yet on Sprint.
I would like to give Root a try. Type boost 7.0

Good luck with rooting success on this phone. Alot of lg phones are looking scarce for root. Especially the LG tribute HD and other prepaid LG Android 6.x.x devices. It's crazy how locked up theses phones are. Check for access to the bootloader.

I jus got this phone 3 days ago.
---------- Post added at 01:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 PM ----------
As I purchased this phone from Sprint I noticed it was missing the default player my other LG phones had. It comes preloaded with "Amazon Music" which is useless. I also noticed it came preloaded with "Google Messenger" as the default Messaging app. I have owned the LG Stylo, LG Stylo 2 Plus, and LG Aristo and what I loved about them was the customizability the messaging app had with chat bubbles and wallpapers. I know there is apps like "Go SMS" but I like the default better. What I loved about the Music Player app was how when you listened to a song, the album artwork would be a blurred background of the app. I tried using an app saver to save the apps to storage and sending through Bluetooth. When I installed it went through the install and then I get the message "Application is Corrupt". I may sound stupid but since they both had same OS version, are both LG, I thought it might have worked. Am I doing something wrong? I don't mind installing a random app for my music from the market, the issue is they all have ads. I tried to find one where if I paid a fee, it would remove them, but I had no luck finding one. I still rather use the original LG apps. Thank you.

@all
Ever since the death of my LGG3 I have felt so "powerless" on the Stylo 3. The device itself is great. But not having access to log files, system info. and the modest improvements that Xposed provided is a major let down.
I have never been one to do custom roms or such things, but appreciate and acknowledge the value of being able to use Titanium to back up my device.
So thanks for everything and I look forward to seeing what wonders will be revealed for the Stylo 3 in the near future.
Regards,
Joe
If you can find way to root the Stylo 3 I'll gladly donate to you...
I'm sure obtaining root will help out many others as well

I talked to my friend who developed roms for the Samsung S3 I used, and he said we will have to unlock bootloader through adb to do amything. This thing is locked down tight. If we as a community can figure out that piece of the puzzle, we can achieve great things for the phone.
This device is way faster then the s3 I had but I really miss having @bilgerryan 's Wicked X Bare Bones. My processor was croaking and I cracked my screen so I upgraded. S7 still high dollar or I would have bought it. The stylo 3 is a superb phone and hope we can accomplish alot in the next year or two. Cheers!

The s3 was so much fun because of all the roms, overclocking, kernels...there was so much customization available and the wicked x rom was awesome.
How would we unlock the bootloader on this device? Custom roms can come later but let's first get root access first...any devs that can help out here?
I don't mind donating to the cause...

its not that the bls are locked on these devices they are signed
without a decryption key or a bypass like g2 g3 loki and bump there is no chance the lg g4s and many other lg devices do not have any root insight which sucks. i just got a cricket varient and kinda like it
so more than likely a root is going to be achieved with a modified aboot or laf
not sure yet i got the cricket stylo 3
and was able to sucsessfully pull the build prop and edited a few things but as of rite now cant push it back to device .

All,
Due to the recent accidental leak of Samsung eMMC vendor commands allowing write to protected eMMC areas, we are now able to write CID values on production devices.
Beaups has written an awesome tool called 'SamsungCID' (found here: https://github.com/beaups/SamsungCID). This makes the process all teh simpler!
I have built this tool from his source, and used it on a multitude of devices that use a Samsung eMMC. It works without flaw on the Moto G (Second Generation), Galaxy S5 (VZW/ATT, though, ATT doesn't have a Developer Edition that I am aware of), and many, many others.
How does this apply to you?
The Note Edge uses a Samsung eMMC (I believe, no teardown I can find definitively says so), and has a Developer Edition. This means that it is (most likely) vulnerable to this exploit.
How can I help this progress?
I need a few thing to make this work:
- A few testers with Production devices, and root (temp-root should work fine) -- I will contact these people individually, do not ask here to test.
- One person with a Developer Edition that has root (need an aboot dump, and them to run one command).
If any of you know of someone with a Developer Edition, please get them in contact with me. I can be reached on Hangouts, or on Telegram (@npjohnson).
PLEASE do not post your CID publicly.
Me again, unfortunately the seller didn't have the aboot backup of my Dev Ed Edge.
I'm fairly certain the one on my device is locked, but I can try to get you a copy of it after work.
Like I said, I have permanent root, just no bootloader write access so no custom recovery/firmware. I'm stuck on 5.0.1 BOJ7
I take it progress is at a standstill?
I'm really hoping for a breakthrough. One way or another. Please dont feel like noone is interested, because this guy sure is.
For all others waiting for news: today a retail Note 4 was converted to Developer Edition. Thats HUGE!

I wonder if they're on the verge of a breakthru with the Note 5 because that would likely take precedence. But yeah Im looking forward to using xposed framework and modules and custom recovery. Ill keep checking back
I think all that needs to happen is the file that's out there for the Note 4 needs to be altered with a Developer Edition CID for the edge but I just don't know how to do it I'm not a developer....
---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------
I'm pretty sure all the hard work is already been done and it's just an alteration of a Couple files, I've already flashed the software on my Edge and and it worked but because its a SM-915V and not a
SM-910V won't convert it.

The Verizon edition of this phone was and still is very unpopular. The release date kept getting pushed back and the Edge seemed like an experiment IMO. I thought it would be a liability. I got this phone for free by dumb luck thru a Verizon error. If it was up to me I would have just gotten the note 4. But i have no money for full price phones to keep grandfathered data plans so this was a godsent miracle. I digress.
This is a charity project i presume. I doubt its very hard but theres not much (or any) reward for the developer who feels like throwing us a bone. Im sure npjohnson has a paypal link for gratuities. Just sayin.
They just released the full exploit for the Note 4. I'm sure they're inundated with requests and questions concerning that.
I'll be waiting patiently, I have no doubt they'll get to us soon enough. Anyone brave enough to try the Note 4 exploit on their Edge?

Read someone else already tried. Didn't do any damage but didn't succeed either. This phone would be amazing running CM. I'll certainly donate to whoever gets it Edge compatible.
I have released the cid and aboot for stock note edge DevEd 4.4.4 to npjohnson so you guys with retail may still have a shot at this. Don't smash your phone's just yet lol.

Does KingRoot still achieve temp root on 5.0.1?
I've tried a couple times now using NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_1 05203.apk which is the one being used on the Note 4 prior to converting to DE and have been unsuccessful. I'm not sure if its just because of the instability or if I need to be on a different version of android.
So lets get an head start on the ROOT for LG G5 ATT. I have started working on it and any help I can get will be appreciated.
I've been poking around a bit, but the thought of needing another kernel for root of marshmallow is kinda out if my knowledge. Main step is to find a way around the boot loader.

The H830 is the T-Mobile variant. Those files are for the T-Mobile variant as well. If you did this on our AT&T H820, it'd brick the phone. Do NOT attempt this.

I doubt the AT&T G5 will be getting root anytime soon, or at all. The S7 Edge now has root for AT&T, get that phone. Much better phone anyways IMO with it's bright, beautiful Super AMOLED display.
I already pulled the trigger on the G5... Got it today. My Note 4 has ruined me for Samsung. My LG G3 outperformed the Note 4 in every way except taking pictures despite the Note having 'better hardware' and being newer.
Since it's dead in the G5 forums and S7 has root, devs, and roms, I think i'm going to [sadly] trade.

Apparently the Sunshine team that finally cracked the Droid Turbo has had no luck finding an exploit on this phone. It's gonna come down to giving one to someone who can crack it and pay them if they want money... If you really need root, at this point it would be easier to buy an X-Force, you can get the unlock code from Motorola. Verizon is not letting them hand out codes for the Droid Turbo 2.
There's a few root threads to read over, no one has gotten close to cracking the bootloader yet, until that happens, perm root is not achievable on this phone.

Good luck rooting that iPhone.
There's plenty of phones better than iPhone, and which can be rooted. You just bought the wrong phone. You should stay away from any Verizon phones in general, if rooting is important to you. Or at least make sure there's an exploit (like with Droid Turbo) before buying.
Why is there an option for "unlocking bootloader" in developer's options for Droid Turbo 2?

Hello all, I'm wondering if anyone has started a bounty for rooting this device. As it compares to the S8 itself, the hardware is the same in a much less soy-esque packaging. I like everything about this device except for it's lack of dev support.
I'd be willing to start it off with $100 dollars USD to begin with. (I'd also be interested in contacting some devs to help fuzz the thing / provide dumps / do what I can)
It would be a wonder to see this thing rooted and it's assumed to be possible if the S8 had received one.
I'll give this thread a nice bump since it seems like the Active is coming to other US carriers soon enough.
I'm in for $50 usd (or worth of btc/eth)
Want this phone on TMo but need root
EDIT: i'm good for $50, but to be clear, needs to work on the TMo variant which is coming out later this month (I will NEVER buy another AT&T phone -- the most locked down bootloaders ever!).
I can contact some of the devs i worked with in the original SamPWND root method and see if they would be willing to take the task on. Will report back shortly with update!

For the time being, I just brought the phone back and got an S8. That does mean that I won't be able to help with any sort of development for obvious reasons. I'll be sure to pick up an active if something goes on and I am still good for 100 dollars.
I really needed root sooner than I thought for some specific stuff, it's rough not being able to afford proper unlocked devices from the OEM..

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pyp5n11ibmtzvr0/G892_ENGROOT.tar?dl=0
Don't own the device or a US s8 but from my experience with the s7 active and flashing s7 roms on the active and them working I would guess that root can be obtained the same way with the same methods used kernel wise as in kernel image setup or which ever combination method was used for the s8? Just a uneducated thought I had. Aside from the s7A I haven't bought an American US branded phone since 2013. Another idea I have would be since they both share the same everything, can you use the root method for the s8? My experience with the 7active was the active button didn't work and the back and menu buttons were broken but other than that all worked. Same theory for your s8A but since you don't have physical buttons I'd say success is 90%
I say again success is 90% if you flash s8 firmware on the active and take the same root method as the active. Battary will be wonky but you'll have root lemme know if method works please.
Also, hard brick is unlikely since everything hardware wise minus the battary is the same.
anybody checked out the thread by chainfire about signing boot images??
There's other Sammy guys in the mix too interesting thread for sure

King Root? Don't make me laugh.
When's the last time some 1-click root like that ever worked? 5 or 6 years ago? And even then it was malware infested. Current versions certainly are. There's a reason to don't see that crap on XDA.
If you installed it on your V35 you need to completely reset your phone, really freshly reflash KDZ via Refurbish mode.

The shop in China where I got my V30+ sells V35 with root. They gave me my V30 rooted as well. I did the TWRP myself. The V35 is really cheap and was even considering one. They're like 140 USD for 98% new.
Are you saying there is no root or if the phone is rooted, it'll be malware infested?

I'm saying any branded 1-click solution like "King Root" don't work on any recent (past 4 or 5 years) LG phones and are malware infested. Why are they lying? Because they want you to install their adware/Malware -- and you still won't have root.
But you won't think to flash full KDZ via Refurbish mode to clean you phone.
That's the reason you see all those websites falsely telling you that you can root using the files they entice you to download and install.

Yes you can buy already-rooted V35 from China.
Any V30/V30+/V30S you can do yourself.

Use Telegram, you'll get a quicker response
Must use MP or Oct Pro for unlock Bootloader first before can root this device
I'd like to root my V35 ThinQ as well. I don't see a guide for it or anything... anyone know? Feel free to send me a PM too.
The best way to root your v35 is to ask someone in the Telegram forum to do it for you remotely. I recommend @vbenkovskyy. Your other option is to lay out some cash for an Octoplus setup.

Hi I'm looking for the service but seems like I can't send PM's for some reason. I would like this person mentioned or someone offering the service to help me please. I know there a small fee no problem. I'm planning on buying the phone in the next few days and would like to set everything up.
Where are the services at? Three people here wanting it and it's not free so what's going on?

You find someone in another country who remotes in to your computer and does some stuff, while your phone is connected. You pay them money.
In Discussion sections like this, XDA does not allow advertising or referrals in posts for paid services like that. They prefer devs create procedures and share so others not only can do it themselves but can improve on it. XDA allows donations to Devs, but they can't charge money in advance.
There are Advertising sections on XDA, but not here.
The other way is to buy already-rooted V35 from China. But it won't be new.
Hey @ChazzMatt,
Thank you for the response covering xda policies.
The situation with the v35 is tricky. It seems prospects for a do-it-yourself, free-of-charge unlock are fading with each passing day. LG and QC have foiled some skilled devs. The v35 is even immune to the recently reported CVE2019-2215 exploit, too. Thankfully, there are other means to free this awesome piece of hadware. Sadly, they are less than perfect. Have you unlocked your v35?

Thank you both for the replies. I absolutely understand and didn't mean to break any rules if I did and apologize. I completely understand and agree with the reasons behind it.

No, I haven't. My rooted stock firmware V30+ (with Magisk and Xposed mods) is still my daily phone and I have a backup V30+ also.
My V35 was bought from XDA member who had SIM card unlocked it and flashed it to NAO firmware. Mint condition. I've not updated to Pie yet.
I know there was V35 TWRP floating around somewhere but not sure it worked with Pie? If I have root, I would like TWRP.
The 2nd V35 I bought was brand new in box AT&T V35, for my sister. SIM card unlocked but still AT&T firmware, as she's AT&T customer and wants Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE. Finally gave it to her last weekend.
Do you have links to rooted v35s sold in China? Better yet, a working TWRP for V35? I have a rooted V35 with no TWRP and gives a system warning or error message upon boot.
Thanks
