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!!

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.
I am trying to root y cricket risio
I am trying to root y cricket risio. I checked the Allow usb debugging thru usb. But when I plug it in. it goes grey.any suggestions?
I got a new phone because my iphone 5 got stolen and it was jailbroken and when I got my samsung device I decided I want to root it. Upon research and countless hours on how to root my phone I got nothing. I guess i'm new when it comes to rooting and i'm trying my best to learn as much as possible.
Anyways, I've tried Kingo Root and it keeps failing, i've tried King root (2 different applications of king root) When I open the app it says Root Acess is unavailable and on the bottom of the app it says Root strategy available, just try it and there is a button asking to try to root. And then it goes to 16% then goes up slowly and then it jut says root failed no strategy retry. Sometimes the app closes out and my homescreen is all black.
I've heard of odin but I've never tried it, if anybody could help me out on rooting my device that would be great.

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.

Installed xposed last night after some other people have said it worked perfectly with the same device and model number, but mine is not stuck at the virgin mobile boot screen and i'm really lost now. Can't find any stock roms for the device, can anyone offer help?
hello all.
long time viewer first time posting..
Ive searched, downloaded, and even called Samsung Tech Support to no avail. After a week now this is my final attempt before the phone goes on Ebay..
I have a Samsung Galaxy On5 (SM-GT550T01) through MetroPCS. Acquired last week when I decided to trade a sibling phones. I had actually rooted the phone for them and it was working fine. switched SIM card out etc, theirs works fine mine isn't. Turns out they did a factory reset with root and somehow managed to even wipe the OS leaving me with just Twrp Recovery.. Ive locked up my fair share so first thought was smart switch the SN i found on Twrps terminal was not the original sn anymore? Searched here saw someone post a sn -tried it - it seemed ok until 100% then states an error use code in emergency recovery but does not give me a code.. eventually says cannot recognize anything, Ive tried ODIN, ADB, countless recovery firmware - same result,,,called support was transferred to "the techs" who said they wouldn't be able to force a new OS onto the phone...I find that very hard to believe...sorry for the rant....just wanting to know now if i waste anymore time or buy a new phone....as for knowledge on all this I would say between beginner and intermediate...lots of google/XDA/YouTube and I am usually able to accomplish something..this had me beat as well as awake at 346am...any help appreciated! Again

What happened with your Samsung oN5 GT5501
Im currently trying to root my samsung GT5501. Now I notice their is a GT550. Different model. I think the GT550 is the ON5 Pro. 16Gb of internal storage, but the one I'm guessing were both inquiring about has an internal storage of 8GB, correct?? Now hopefully were talkg bout the same phone. Now was it the GT5501 the phone u had rooted? If so, did u do it without a PC?? If so can you direct me to instructions or vids. Can't find any specifically for the GT5501. All the tutorials are for the GT550 model..... sorry I wasn't any help to you, but I hope you got it all sorted out...
