Hi,
My friend wants me to Root her phone, which she knows is an "LG Stylus 2" and is *not* the "Plus" model.
A while back she performed an OTA Update, which brought her phone to Nougat 7.0
Now here's the confusing part: When you look in the phone's internal Model # info in About, it shows the Model # as an "LGMS550".
But when I search for Root methods for her phone (LG Stylo 2") and include that number in the search, the hits are always about the "LG Stylo 2 Plus".
If I leave the Model # out of the search, it shows hits, but they're for completely different internal Model #'s than hers.
Did LG send Nougat OTA's for the "Plus" model to both types for some reason? What should I do to get her phone Rooted, please? Can anyone please point me in the right direction? I don't want to brick her phone.
Thank You

Hi all, Just purchased a LG V20 F800L (Korean version) here in Australia.
It all seems to work well but I would like to change the software to an international one or a more English one.
As some things are still in Korean such as the ringtone list, the phone dialer and especially LG smart world and it will not allow me to log into it.
What I need to know is which firmware would be the best to flash & if some can point me in the right direction on where to start it would be much appreciated.
LG-F800L
Android 7.0
Build number NRD90M
Kernel 3.18.31
Software version F800L10m
My main aim is to get LG Smartworld working and in English

I think the issue here is that there isn't even an international version that has been released at this time. I will be keeping my eyes on this space though for when there is something. I have an F800K and will be changing out the ROM on it to international when/if I get the chance.

1) First you need an international version to be released
2) Then you need someone to post the firmware
3) Then you need the international version to have a bootloader unlock and TWRP and root so you can even do this
4) You need to hope and pray that on v20, unlike Samsung and many others, flashing other SKU firmware will NOT brick the device.
You rolled the dice and got the "wrong" version for your market....There's a strong possibility you're stuck with what you have, or that doing this you'll end up with an $800USD paper weight.
We currently don't have a way to flash firmwares at all.
Thanks guys ill just have to wait and see what happens.
Is there anyway of getting LG Smart world working in English?
any news????
Maybe this will help.

I have searched for the posting of the Verizon Wireless varient of the LG Stylo 2 and cannot find one.
Does anybody know of a root method for the Vzw LG Stylo 2 V? I have stayed on the software version VS83510B and will not upgrade even though Verizon Wireless has an update available for the phone now. I cannot find a detailed explanation of the update on verizon's site, nor did I find it on LG's site.
Thank you for the information and help.
I've been looking for a root method for this device as well. I tried One Click Root and Kingo and neither one worked.
Looks like there is no solution for this device?
If anyone has a way to root this lg vs835 please let us know!

List Secret codes may help
I dont have the VZW version , however I do have some of the VZW settings options in my METRO pcs version.
The link I am providing may assist you in unlocking the potential of your device. After trying some of the codes I provide please let me know which codes work for you to access settings in your phone.
If you do not have the same (APP'S) in your phone then the codes from the list may not work for you. I could try to share the app so you can install it?? That might be intersting.
There are 38 pages included in the PDF file. Scroll down til you see Telophony secret code (#########) there are several in the list,
CAUTION! I HAVE NOT TESTED ALL THE CODES AND IT IS UNKNOW HOW THEY ALL WORK.
YOU MUST ADD *#*# in front then end with #*#* WITH THE SECRET CODE FROM THE LIST IN BETWEEN.

Has anyone found a root method for the Lg Stylo 3?
Build number: NRD90U
Software version: Lgl83bl10a
I keep finding methods for the stylo 2 plus and 3 plus but none for the stylo 3. Need a working root asap.
I'm on the same boat. I bought the phone thinking it was ok to use with Tmobile but to my surprise, it's locked. :crying:
Still nothing? I am assuming that both of you have the same problem of bootloader? My stylo 3 just boots right back into system....
Not sure if this phone will ever be rooted its been out for sometime now.
HELP
I too am having the same issue when I try to boot into bootloader it just restarts the system is this going to be an unrootable phone
Found a solution

This tutorial worked for me for bypassing verification: [cannot post link because I'm new; go to hardreset dot info and search for lg stylo 3] . There were a couple of tricky steps. One was getting a phone number to come up while in youtube. Just search for KFC, go to the youtube about page and click the URL. Next was having a bluetooth headset (required). You only need it briefly but it is a must.
I assume all of the LG Stylo 3 tutorials are legit after this one worked.

Interesting. I too came across the BT method but didn't give it a try on this model. You should write a tutorial on your method. This phone was a bit of a pain at first to get past. I kept having my Accessibility Switch Access Help Page framed in for some reason. Finally after hard resetting a few times I was able to access an unframed version and get out to the internet / settings.

Did you find away for this pleas reply to me
No I ended up getting a different phone
My brother got this S7 Edge on used market, so no box or anything. I don't live in the US but there's Verizon logo on the back of the phone. I don't know why but the phone is a bit laggy, so I wanted to flash a custom rom. Unfortunately I couldn't find any guide to flash TWRP for this phone as most guide are for Exynos models only.
Another thing is, according to about phone, my model number is SM-G935F, build number NRD90M.G935FXXU1BQB7 but CPUZ says my model is SM-G935T. Are this two model the same? Is it possible to root and flash TWRP on this phone without using CROM?

Boot to download mode there it will show you the real model number. The model number in about phone can be faked using build.prop and is therefore not always real
The model is p00i and it's on Android 7.0 from Verizon. I can't find that exact model here and don't want to try something that is meant for another model
Hi there,
I just picked up this tablet as well they other day. Mine was bought on Ebay and the bootloader is unlocked. So, root should be definitely attainable. I'll read through the threads for the already successfully rooted model numbers and compare the specs to ours to see if it can be done.
