Boost/sprint/virginm are all the same LS770. You cannot unlock the bootloader. Only the tmobile/metropcs stylo variants have unlcked bootloader, so NO custom trwp, no roms, no cyanogen. Best you can hope for is flash back with LGup to Lollipop and root. But no roms or recovery, just root

I'm getting the tmobile g stylo (same os etc as boost ) on the 26th and WAS wondering if anyone found a way to add an equalizer besides power amp and rooting and installing a zip in recovery to the g stylo

Carrier unlock Boost Moto G (XT1031)

Hello,
Is there a way to carrier unlock the Moto G XT1031 on 4.4.4 from BoostMobile? I bought it certified pre-owned and I want to use it on TracFone. I read a few posts on the Internet that say that say unlocking the phone won't work past 1/15/2015... is this still the case on pre-owned devices? Or just for new devices bought after that date?
I'm a huge noob at this. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Well you don't carrier unlock cdma phones you flash them to another carrier. As for moto g on any thing else but boost sorry it is a no go. Unless like the lg g2 it is possible to say take a rom from vzw and put it on the boost variant and make it a verizon. The lg g2 sprint can be carrier unlocked by flashing a tmobile rom that has been modded. Found that out here on xda and did it.

Why no makes any roms for LG G FLEX 2? or any mods

Bootloader is not open,so no custom rom as long as somebody finds a way to do it.
Sorry.

The old G flex really doesn't have a recovery last time I checked. On the T-Mobile variant they did come up with a trickery way to get a recovery install but it really wasn't safe, also there's still no unlock bootloader for that device neither. For a device that's been out for more then a year it's really dead it has no development at all no custom ROMs at all.
Would be ashamed if the flex 2 goes the same route.

LG G Stylo [MS631] (Metro PCS variant) Marshmallow update

Hi there guys was wondering if root is available for marshmallow on the metro pcs lg g stylo since I was having trouble finding out. On game theory's website there is a guide to updating to the latest firmware here but i'm not sure if its talking about the marshmallow update.
Any help would be appreciated I'm half worried no one will respond because it might be an incredibly easy question anyway cheers.
In case anyone ever finds this thread I eventually found out that you can receive the update fine by going back to stock. And rooting is almost the same as the T-Mobile model. If you have any doubt's pm I may be able to respond.

install Lineage OS in the LG G5 Verizon VS987

Hi does anyone know how to install OS lineage on the LG from verizon?
I have lay in all threads but no one explains or speaks of it
Greetings from Uruguay
Can't, no root yet.
Don't think there will be root or recovery I've had this phone almost a year and I've seen nothing for root let alone recovery.
