My gut instinct is that it is. The Risio is H343, the Leon for MetroPCS is MS345, and the Leon for T-Mobile is H340N. Phone Scoop says they're all the same, but of course they're not an authoritative source: http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=4705
When my G3 gets back from warranty service next week, I want to try putting the Leon TWRP build on my Risio: https://twrp.me/devices/lgleonlte.html
I realize I could brick the phone and that's fine. My question is whether or not there's any sort of prep I can do beforehand to (possibly) put it back to rights in case I do. If there's some information I can pull from the phone that might help, let me know. It's been successfully rooted using Kingroot (specifically NewKingrootV4.52_C127_B227_office_release_2015_09_28_105203.apk).
TIA!
EDIT: Now I'm even more convinced. According to CPU-Z, the model is "c50_crk_us", the board is "msm8916", and most importantly, the hardware is "c50" (same as the "code name" for the Leon LTE on TWRP's site). Is there any way to tell which bands my modem supports? The TMO Leon supposedly supports band 12, while the Risio and MetroPCS Leon supposedly do not.
hey if you find out more, please tell me, because I would like to get custom ROMs with the risio...I'm planning on getting it from cricket

Eh, I used Kingroot to get root and then tried to throw on the TWRP build for the C50 using the TWRP app. No dice, but it rebooted just fine. Then I tried to replace Kingroot with SuperSU, but that borked it somehow. It would hang forever at "Android is updating..." (or one of those other messages) and just never finish. When I tried to boot into recovery, I got a secure boot error, so apparently I borked the recovery install, too.
I told LG it got messed up during a software update and they gave me a prepaid label to send it to them for warranty repair. They restored it and sent it back to me without any hassle. Since I already had my G3 back from them, I sold the Risio.

Hmm ... I am not sure if I have understood your question correctly.
You want to unroot your old phone?
If yes, then install SuperSU app (e.g. from Play store), open it and select the complete unroot option.
Or you have unrooted it already and want to root it again?
Then check this thread: [Root] Alcatel One Touch Fierce.
Or you just want to get a confirmation that you should get your sister's phone?
Yes, the LG L90 is a nice device ... see its forum on xda here: LG Optimus L90.
And you can root it easily ... like described here: [GUIDE][ROOT] Root your LG L40/L70/L90/G2 mini!.
it is unrooted. but.
When I go trade in will there be anything to tell its rooted? I might root that lg l90 but I don't want T-Mobile not taking back the phone if something goes wrong. I accidentally did a ota update and now I can't access my settings on the Alcatel. (I accidentally updated while still rooted.) I factory reset(recovery mode ftw) but I'm stuck in the sett up menu I can't get past language with the notification "unfortunately settings has stopped" but I can still use Google now cards and I got to play store and got some launcher(cm) and I use that but I can't access settings no matter what.

I'm still not sure if I understood what you want to do.
You void your warranty (depending on your country/carrier specific rules) already by rooting it.
Installing the OTA update might have unrooted the phone automatically.
I assume that manually flashing an official/stock firmware will be the best way to "prepare" it for a new user.
Please check the threads I linked in my previous post and ask there.
Thanks for your understanding. Thread closed.
Theres Too Many Roots for Tmobil and Boost and Metro now lets give some Time for Cricket
WE NEED SOMEONE TO MAKE A ROOT FOR LG stylo v5.1 LP CRICKET
PLEASE
:fingers-crossed:h
I got mine rooted, now we need someone to make a custom recovery & maybe a bootloader unlock also.
Lg stylo H634
I have the Lg stylo h634 through Cricket. After reading another thread I used Kingroot to root my phone. However I decided I wanted to removed the root so I can upgrade to Marshmallow. So I purchased Supersu to get rid of kIngroot. My phone is now stuck in bootloop. At this point I don't care what ROM I have, I just need my phone back. Any suggestions, help or even a "I'm screwed buy a new phone" statement would a least let me move on. I have been at this for about a week now.
Thank you

Bring it to where you got it and play dumb. Don't mention root or anything of the sort. As far as they're concerned you don't know jack about phones. Just tell them it froze and you had to pull the battery to reset it but now it wont turn on.
My Cricket Wireless LG G Stylo is also briked
I rooted my Cricket Wireless LG G Stylo (H634) with Kingroot then I used Super sume to covert to SuperSU instead of Kingroots after I used the Super sume app and updated binaries the phone restarted and and is stuck on the LG logo. Boost and Metro has flash files all over the web TOT and KDZ files we need flash files for the Cricket Wireless LG G Stylo if anyone can post them online thank you in advance.
Me 2 but i still had warrant after i rooted
I bricked my phone with supersu me but i still had warranty after i rooted with king root so i called it in and they gave me a new phone

While installing the latest update from T-Mobile for my LG G2 (D801), my phone got bricked. It boots, shows LG logo and then T-Mobile welcome screen and gets stuck there. My phone is not rooted and doesn't have debug on. T-Mobile and LG tech support have told me that the only thing I can do is to try a factory reset. Unfortunately, that would make my data inaccessible.
I really want to recover my data and feel confident in following complex instructions to do so involving software or hardware manipulation. I want to learn if there are any ways to achieve that and what would be the chances of success.
I had a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime, I was watching
Some youtube videos on hoe to root your phone, I thought it would work because of how many likes the video got. I did not know about devices being bricked at this time. So i downloaded kingroot and attempted root. It said root successful, so i plated around with some rooted apps then I tried to restart my phone it showed this. Yellow triange (Custom Binary Blocked by FRP) I regretted everything. Then I got a new phone, same brand. 5 months after having the phone my friends told me that they rooted their device and it didnt get bricked, I was told if i use the newest version of kingroot i wouldnt get bricked, so of course I tried to root, GOT BRICKED AGAIN ?. A week after my 2nd phone got bricked there was this mothersday sale in T-Mobile, so i got an LG K7 for 96 bucks. Right now I have this bestfriend who has the same phone as me (LG K7) and he said he rooted it with no problems, not bricked. nothing. Right now im struggling if I should root or not. Is it only Samsung devices that can get blocked by the FRP? Help!!

I have a LG ls770 (supposedly for virgin mobile, but the IMEI check online said it was a boost phone...) and i kinda need root, for the stuff i do with automagic and Xposed..
this came up when i googled "root ls770 marshmallow" , and claims it's featured on XDA.. Is this going to brick me? I really can't afford a new phone right now.

There is no root for LS770 on Marshmallow. The reason is because dm-verity has been added to the boot process requiring an unlocked bootloader to allow modified kernel permissions. So if you could flash back to Lollipop you might have a chance, but there is potentially a problem with qfuse, so there you go
