Howzit guys.
Firstly if this is not the correct place to post my questions please inform me or MOD can move it.
I am trying to get some information about this device:
LG G4 Stylus
Brand: lge
Model LG-H635
OS: Android 6.0 (32Bit)
what i require is some links or help or guides on:
How to root this device
How to install custom recovery
Where to get older stock/official versions of the ROM ie. KitKat or LiloPop or Marshmallow.
Any help or assistance would be greatly appreciated as my knowledge on the LG phones are very limited.
EDIT: Uploaded some pictures.
Hey, I have the same phone (H635), but unfortunately, the bootloader is not unlockable, so no one has created a custom recovery for this phone. I did have a temporary root with KingRoot, but there was a system update released on Tuesday that broke even the temporary root, so as of now, there isn't anything that can be done to the phone to mod or customize it.
If you have the opportunity to buy an American T Mobile model, that version has an unlockable bootloader, as well as custom recovery and roms available for it.
The only firmware I found on the internet for the H635 model is here, a version of Marshmallow: http://lg-firmware-rom.com/download/lg-g-stylo-h635-stock-kdz-firmware-h63520a/
Hope this helps answer your questions...
Cheers

Hello,
I really really want to root my GT-I9507, asap, have been looking through this site alot recently and the simplest (for a noob) way seems to be 'CF-Auto-Root'.
The problem I am having and not being able to solve is how do I unlock the bootloader?
As chainfire says it can brick my phone if locked and it would appear that it almost certainly is, but I cant find a way to unlock the GT-I9507. I can see that some people must have as they have used the 'CF-Auto-Root' method.
Any ideas, or if someone can point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Katoiam

I got a response on a different page from a person who had rooted their GT-I9507 phone, they said:
I managed to root it mate, flashed latest optus 4.4.2, then flashed Philz recovery, then flashed CF autoroot ( the new version dedicated specifically for i9507 which you may find on cf autoroot website . )
Use This CF AutoRoot; ( This one is for Android 4.4.2 )

Check all versions here;

If you want custom recovery, use PhilZ ( The same as for I9505 ).
Good Luck.
But as I am very worried about bricking my phone, and as chainfire does specifically say it can brick your phone if the bootloader isn't unlocked , can some one help me to understand why this method works?
I really want to do it, but am very scared

I am beginning to feel a little crazy as I think I am talking to myself!!
On a different forum, some one has just suggest that in Australia the S4 probably doesn't have it bootloader locked!
Can any one confirm this? Or help me to find out if my bootloader is locked? I have also looked for ways to do this but haven't (I believe) found anything relevant.
Cheers in advance
Hi,
I suggest you ask the experts who own your device for help in this dedicated help thread in your device section,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192886
Good luck !
Cheers Darth,
I will make a post there now.
I didn't even know this post existed, I have been searching GT-I9507 the whole time as its not so common
So Just to finish this post off,
I have just made the plunge and rooted my phone.
So I used the Chainfire-autoroot method as stated above, and it all worked fine.
I have some issues trying to get odin to see my phone, whihc were rectified by going to samsung for the drivers.
So for anyone who is wondering, Optus have not (at least by 27/1/15) not locked their bootloaders on the GT-I9507.
I hope that this might eventually help someone, and I'm not just talking to my self!
Awesome! I will close this thread.

Hello everyone! I'm new to android, and I have bought a Coolpad 8297-T01 on a trip to China, which I wish to root in order to install Google Play. It runs on 4.4.4 android version and kernel version is 3.10.28.
I haven't found advice on rooting this particular model, but I've seen that some users here post from the same device. So, before going on rooting from the generic list here http://www.xda-developers.com/root/, I'd like to ask if somebody has rooted successfully this model and how (in order to avoid making any bad mistake)
Thank you!

Hello.
Yes, your device can be rooted. One of the methods in the thread link you provided should work. Framaroot gets success for a lot of devices, and is probably why it is listed first. If it fails, just move on to the next option until you get root. The methods listed there won't break your device.
Good luck!
I have a stock unrooted Motorola nexus6 that is currently running lollipop 5.1.1 build LZY28N. I am using the AT&T straight talk sim card. I cannot get it to update to marshmallow. ive been considering unlocking the bootloader and flashing it myself, but I don't know wich build to download. from what ive gathered the LZY28N build is tmobile build. I also seen somewhere that I need to download build MRA58K. I have downloaded this build but have not proceeded because I'm not sure if it is the correct build. I want to get an official build as to not screw up my new device. I recently had a one plus one running cyanogen 12.1 and it was crashing a lot and I'm trying to prevent this from happening to this phone. anyone out there have any info for me? I know how to unlock bootloader, root,install twrp, and flash. I just need some direction as to what build to flash and have everything go as smooth as possible

Good luck!
I've had this phone rooted for a while now, and I've decided I'd like to install a custom rom if possible. CyanogenMod is the name I see tossed around the most often, so that is what I figured I'd look into. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry but the bootloader has not been unlockable yet by any devs for the AT&T version of the V10. If you have the European version or the T-Mobile version you can unlock the bootloader, however. There is a tiny glimmer of hope yet to come if you don't have the Euro or TM versions.
A 9-year-old bug called the "Dirty Cow" exploit still exists in the Linux/Android kernel can easily grant root on any Android phone!!! See the video below.
http://www.xda-developers.com/9-year...on-of-android/
So there's another bug to exploit for root and even possibly unlocking the bootloader! The bug has been fixed recently in Linux but hasn't been rolled into Android yet. If anyone can get this working on my AT&T LG V10 (running Marshmallow) I'll give a reward of $50! Plus you'll be my hero! Now get crackin!
Not sure about Cyanogenmod but I found this weblink that refers to it bing possible to install roms.

It Links to some posts here on XDA so thought it best to just post 1 link so you can look through them as you wish.
Since I can't find an appropriate category I post it in this one, if any admin is able to move to the right one please do so, thank you.
I have an LG Stylo 4 model number LM-Q710TS Rev 1.0 (T-Mobile) I've been looking for quite a while for a custom ROM and rooting guide, and it seems that on the forum there's a sub forum for every other stylo model but none for the Stylo 4.
I have done a few online searches for a custom ROM for this particular model, and I've come out almost empty-handed, all that I can find is some generalized rooting guides and nothing on a custom ROM for this phone.
This phone is updated to the latest Android that officially came out for it Android 8.1.0, Android security patch level May 1,2020, its software version is q710s11u if that helps.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you.
I too have been searching for a rooting guide for my LG Stylo 4...
