if you get /system/xbin/spritebud does not exist
what is the issue. (running version 4.4.2) - LG-F260S LG Optimus LTE 3
i've installed the .apk.
enable debugger mode
enable debugger mode on the application
turned phone off and back on
did a backup
did a restore
ran again same error
i'm a noob, go gently with the sandpaper to the arse. maybe new version not supported.

thats what im guessing, LG made a new patch in the kit kat update, i would be careful im not sure if it has a locked boot-loader and could brick it if you try other ways, just wait for an official root method.

Likewise have version 4.4.2 loaded on my F260S and tried several rooting methods with no luck. Am really hoping someone could help us with this dilemma and provide a solution

any solutions yet? specifically for v20f. as advised by a vietnamese site, I need to downgrade to v10m. Unfortunately I always get an error at 4 - 5 % of the upgrading stage and wouldn't pass that point and the connection with the fone (serial port 41, windows7) disconnects

[Q] LG-Optimus PAD (V900) ROM

Gents, I am using LG-Optimus PAD (V900) with honeycomb 3.0. still now I didn’t get any update for my PAD, 3.1 or 3.2 etc…
May I know if anyone have 3.1 or 3.2 stock ROM for LG V-900?
or any chance to update my pad?
Thanks in advance
Musheer
Anyone have honeycomb 3.1 (or 3.2…) stock ROM for LG V-900 (Optimus PAD). Or any working custom ROM? Still I didn’t get any single update from LG.

I also have got an LG-V900 which I want to root. In order to help me, could you answer to these questions :
1 - Can you tell us how did you root it (with linux, windows) ?
2 - Didn't you lose 3G when you rooted it ? Are you sure it's only the update with android 3.1 from v909 which broke 3G ?
3 - Did you try this in order to recover 3G :

I'm trying to find the stock firmware LGD850AT-00-V10f-310-410-OCT-15-2014. I followed your guide this evening, and I am getting the endless boots, even though I performed the factory reset. Looking at the logs, the Flash tool stated I has the above, and I flashed with LGD850AT-01-V10d-310-410-JUN-19-2014. Is there anyway to get the V10f version? Or is there anyway to move forward to a higher stock version?

Did you use LGUP instead of "LG flash tools"? That's what I had to do because I was on Marshmallow.

[Q] LG G4 Stylus (Stylo) [LG-H540]

Hi!
I am able to root my new unit via KingRoot. Now I am looking for a recovery compatible with my device. The devices I found here does not match my variant of the LG Stylo. I am just wondering if somebody has a similar device and could share their recovery.img and/or custom roms if any.
Thanks!

first you need to figure out if your bootloader is locked if it's not then TWRP should be easy to make for it if not then your in the same boat as use Boost Users....

you can just use kingroot to use it. i found my kingroot from google.
. .i also used that kingroot but when tried replacing it with SuperSU normal binary installation does not work. .now the only option is to use the trwp method but i just found that this device does not have recovery method. .it would really be a help if someone will share how to fully root this device aside from kingroot

Android 5.1.1 Update for AT&T G Flex 2 Unlocked in India.

Alright So I just got the G Flex 2 here in India, it's a AT&T device which is unlocked to work on all networks. the phone is currently running 5.0.1 which is Slow and laggy and heats up bad and I desperately need to update it to 5.1.1 even if it's not the latest one. I'm not too technical and can't flash anything so maybe a simple install package or something is available which would be helpful.
also, since I tried to check the update after manually taking the date forward and took it like 2-3 months ahead I can't check for updates till 2351 hours so maybe a work around with that too, please. I have a stable WIFI connection at my disposal.:good:
you can upgrade with H950PR A 5.1.1 , HAS A POST OF HOW TO MAKE THE PROCESS , I FEEL MY BAD ENGLISH

need to root J327T1

Greetings,
Ive bought J327T1 today and i want to root my device which is on nougat.
You and countless others. Welcome to the unrootable device club.
the Sm-j327u is rootable its the same exact device as the j327t & t1 the only difference with that model is it's bootloader unlocked. the only solution i see is buying the unlocked version of the j3 prime from samsung's website. good thing about buying from samsung is the fact you can choose what company you want and theres none or less bloatware installed.
---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------
also i have the link. i recommend that everyone buys directly from samsung for now on. remember one thing if your device has sm-XXXXU (X's in place of model numbers/letters) (U=unlocked and available on all carriers.) This is the death of unlocked bootloaders on carrier specific devices. the link to the phone is: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/all-other-phones/galaxy-j3-16gb-2017--unlocked--sm-j327uzkaxaa/

We are working on it stay tuned a new thread will be made in the guides and news section if we are successful.
Update: we are out of ideas. Until someone has an exploit we cannot root this device sorry but you will need to either buy some other device or buy the j327u directly from samsung. It is unlocked and you can flash cf autoroot no problem. The only issue is we do not have twrp for that device yet but it will be soon.

for now its hopeless. samsung really pissed me off by patching the root method not even a month after it was made. sure performance was improved slightly but patching the bootloader is just too much. is having an unlock method too much to ask?

Really surprised me with Samsung to about this. They're normally pretty nice with OEM unlock and etc. Unfortunately this is just a phone they've licked down. They're Galaxy Note series all have root. So it really makes no sense to me why this one is so closed off.
