Hi Everyone,
Wanted to know if anyone has already figured out or through a different method, can help me root my phone.
It's an LG phone under GSM technology by TracFone for Walmart Straight Talk service. the Model is "LG l21g" .
It is specifically running Android 5.0.1
I've heard it's best to follow a root process uniquely made for the exact model of your phone. But since TracFones lack much in rooting fame, I'm hoping that there is a safe generic method used to provide basic root access to phones/devices that have the respective OS. For which in my case is version 5.0.1
Also note that although i am new to rooting. I am not new to computers in general. I have searched for quite a while for a way to root my device by model. But finding nothing has lead me to this site, and the closest thing i've found is the CDMA version reference of my model here. Which doesn't quite seem solved.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

lollipop 5.0. I can not for the life of me find a way to root it.
I have seen many ways to root my phone. But none that

really like to root my phone. Even though I have never had a
rooted phone. Can someone plz help me. Thanks for any

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. The best palce to get information on your device is in it's specific forum here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3 For your specific question read through this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/root-note-3-sm-n900-lollipop-5-0-t3027054
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3. The carrier is Virgin Mobile. They are on the Sprint Network. My model is the SPH-L710T. The build number is KOT49H.L710TVPUOAOF2. It's currently running Kit Kat 4.4.2.
I have seen/read a successful rooting protocol for the SPH-710 but none for my particular model.
If anyone can point me to a successful rooting protocol and ROM for my particular phone, I'd be most appreciative.
Thanks in advance.

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
As you may have already found out, there is an XDA area dedicated to the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-sprint but not everything there applies to the SPH-L710T. I suggest you post your question with all relevant details there where the experts familiar with your device might be best able to guide you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search a thttp://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=SPH-L710T which might be worth reviewing.
Good luck!
Hi
I'be been researching the benefits of rooting android devices for a while now and have finally decided to try it, I have a Samsung galaxy s5 and a cheap android tablet branded as "laser" (model number: MID-742) I am going to attempt rooting my tablet before I try my phone just so I can familiarize myself with the process. The problem I'm currently facing is that I'm unable to find any info on how to root this tablet, I've tried searching xda and Google for the make, model number, build number and haven't been able to find any recent proper way to root it. If someone could help me out I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, I'm making this thread because Im having some trouble updating my phone to the latest version of Andriod.
I have an LG G3 D850 factory unlocked. This means it's an at&t phone, so I'd need an at&t sim to update it. The problem is, I dont live in the US, Im from southamerica, Uruguay specifically.
As I dont have the sim or anything, my phone is stuck in Android 4.4.2.
My question is, is there any way for me to update my phone? What happens if I download and install the D855 version for this phone (the international version) will it block my networks?
Thanks for reading!

Hi, I have a Tracfone LG Reflect (LGL555DL). I've been searching the forums and can't find information on rooting. Are there some rooting instructions for this phone? Or a way to install viper4android without root?
Thank you everyone in advance
I also have a tracfone reflect LGL555DL version 9 and having very little luck obtaining any helpful information on how to go about rooting. I see this was posted a month ago with this being the first reply. Sorry it's still to say not rootlng. I was told to try pc version. Have you had any luck on your end? Seems like someone would if had something to say...
