Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
As an owner of the F3Q (a close relative, but with a HW keyboard), the procedure is complicated because of the bootloader. Yours probably has the factory-reset-to-get-into-recovery as well, and it's too dangerous to try to get around that without employing kernel trick workarounds instead.
Anyway, in my travels I have seen a few ROM's for the F6 (including CarbonROM), although I don't think CyanogenMod was one of them. Here is a short list of what's available:
> General discussion > General > LG Optimus F6
If you want to learn more, I would suggest posing any question in that thread (you will need to register for an account in that case).
Hope this helps, and good luck!

Hello,
I am new to the world of smartphones. I chose LG G3 S – D722 with Android 4.4.2 – for the qualities of the LG G3, with the lower price of the small version. On PC I use Archlinux and have installed adb and fastboot from the community repositories. My phone is ready to be rooted (provided it can be done, which I am not sure yet). I do have questions, and also found a first error message in the output of the console while launching the PurpleDrake Lite script for Linux.
Where should I ask for one and the other(s)?
Best regards,
Mélodie
/Edit: I found clues here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/twrp-lg-g3s-beat-d722-d724-f470-tested-t2945283
as this one thread is under the LG G3 > General sub-section. I guess I will just continue reading all threads D722 related for now.
Hi,
Yes, from what I've seen... Any G3 S thread I've found has been in the G3 section. So for now that seems to be where to go for that device.
And I see you're familiar with the G3 section. Good! ?
Good luck!

Hi,
Not perfectly familiar yet, but I'll try to get used to it. Thanks!
I bought a Motorola XT1031 Moto G (System version 210.12.57.flacon_cdma.Boost.en.US sprint - Build KXB21.14-L1.57) with Kitkat 4.4.4 from TextNow and I want to root the phone but it comes with special software from them that I don't want to lose. That software basically integrates the TextNow VoIP service seamlessly with the native dial-pad and controls of the phone. It also lets the owner conveniently know how much cellular data is remaining out of the monthly allowance. It's basically a re-branded Boost Mobile CDMA phone (not GSM).
I'm not used to writing in forums so I apologize in advance for anything I did wrong.
Can I back up what's on it or do I need to do something special?
I'm planning to use an OTG drive but I think I have to root the phone to use it.
This is my first Andriod phone and I could use some help.
What's the safest approach to root the phone that allows me to undo any damage I cause in the process?
Hi there,
All you need for your device is here: [RC-FAQ] >> Frequently Asked Questions for Motorola Moto G [Updated : 2014/02/08]. Read part where is about root, see post 2, Q8 ...
For other questions use same forum for Q&A.
Good luck
Thank you, R_a_z_v_a_n.
This thread you posted has a lot of helpful information but I haven't found anything specifically related to the special TextNow software described in post #1 (or maybe I missed it?). I tried using the thread 'Search' feature with the keywords 'TextNow' and 'Text Now'. I'm hoping to find another TextNow user on this thread with the same situation I'm in and a successful story to learn from his or her experience, assuming I'm not the first person to root a phone with the specifications I mentioned above.
Rooting an Android looks like a risky procedure because I've seen many threads where people complain about stuff not working properly after their attempts. From the lessons learned from other posts it seems to me that I will have to compromise something to root the phone and I want to know what it is before I begin. Thanks again
I'm also curious to know if anyone out there is interested in the result I'm trying to achieve in this thread.
For any other questions please post here:

Good luck

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Short answer, no.
Long answer, there has to be a lot of similarities between two devices in order for them to be capable of sharing the same firmware (or ROM). Bare minimum, they must have the same chipset and partition layout, or you will end up hard-bricked (something noone ever wants). The rest of the hardware has to be the same (or similar) too, or you will get a bootloop after installing, or less often, a feature that won't work.
The only time I have seen a ROM closely matching two devices is when two models are made by the same manufacturer, and even then, there are subtle glitches in the function of that ROM for the other device (such as auto-rotate not working).
At any rate, you can create an account, and post a thread in > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting asking if there are any ROMs, or plans for ROMs for this device.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
I would like to learn how to root a device but I'm not sure where to start. Pretty much I want have a more streamlined system that is more secure. It's currently an android device. LG G Pad VK700. The carrier is Verizon. I have used Linux a lot and done live builds along with kernel builds. Nothing really custom though. I was told this was the forum to hit up.
Where do I get started? Any recommended books?
I'm more interested in learning the entire process of rooting a device and developing and installing a custom ROM than in a quick download this app.
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist.
Please check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3049772
It should work as reported here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60319213&postcount=170
Good luck!
Hello, new member here. Let me start with I apologize if there is a general tutorial explaining everything I am about to ask, I have looked and cant seem to find one. I know and understand how to root and what the basics are that it allows. I have rooted several phones for the sole reason of cleaning preinstalled apps to make more space. The problem is I bricked my last phone and am now using my new LG G Stylo. I have no real idea about what or how recoveries work. Also kernels and roms. I am looking for a general tutorial explaining pretty much everything about rooting. Like how to mAke and use a recovery, what roms are and how to use them, same with kernels. Nothing too in depth, just the basics so that when I do root this phone I can have a recovery ready and set up, and get the full potential of rooting.
Also if anyone knows of a tutorial for the LG G Stylo by metro (LGMS631) that goes over the best setup for this phone for speed,space, an functionality.
Any help would be extremely appreciated.
Thank You, Nikkon

Thank you, I thought about there first but figured that doesnt make sense. My questio.s are mainly general. I was only stating my new phone and asking a quick aquestion abbout that, but the main gist of this post has nothing to do with the LG G Stylo. The main questions and even topic of post is general questions just explaining what it means to root and what kernels, roms, etc. actually are. In general. Thank you for some type of feedback tho. Its appreciated.
