I rooted my LG Optimus Fuel with Towelroot. It's a Net10 phone. I am an amateur to say the least but I have successfully rooted a few others as well. My next step is to learn how to install a custom Rom, however, I am not able to unlock bootloader on this one and I could use some advice. Be kind, I'm new at this.

Hello and welcome to the LG family! Please note that your phone is the equivalent to the VS415 and that is where I will be giving you help from.
Currently, there are no custom Roms available for this device.
The bootloader is assumed to be transparent/inaccessible.
The recovery can be entered using a computer with adb.
If you have any questions, PM me and I would be glad to help!
-Cheers! Meow/TheUnbricker
Hello has anyone figured out a way of unlocking the LG LEON besides via device unlock app??
I ask because currently the servers have been down for the past 2 weeks and I have 10 Leons sitting around my house
I have found a way to enter the unlock through the hiddensimunlock.apk
says success , reboots, the sim is blocked by the app
I have asked a few friends who currently haven't experiment with the leon but they said if we can remove that app for good we might be able to unlock the phone
so i was wondering if someone installed a custom rom on the leon (no device app integrated) then performed regular unlock code method with APK
will it work?
I am offering 50$ paypal to whoever can show me how to unlock this phone successfully without device app
any help/info would be greatly appreciated
bump
Let me know if you succeed.

Any devs out there?

Im goin to check into thiss. Some one else was able to gain temp root using dr wondershare data recovery program. So i tried and also was able to gain very temp root. Of coarse kingroot kingo and all the others have failed. Once we get root i will find many more things we can do such as xposed. Twrp if there is a bootloader unlock or bypass. workaround.
Just sucks i need root to nuke recovery or laf partitions to get to fastboot to attempt bl unlock. Have u been sucsessful in getting to fastboot in any way
using various button combos i was able to get into several different "Scenarios" with several different drivers kicking in according to my device manager. i gave up on this phone. If we could somehow install Supersu while we have temp root that would be great. maybe write s script and run it while drhone is doing its thing, i dont know?

New to forum, I have tried everything to root grand x max 2 with no luck. Really like this phone, but would like better rooted!! So I will continue working on this also.
Well sorry to say, but rooting this is way off down the road. Without unlocking the bootloader, and no that oem unlock does not unlock it, its just the first step to unlocking the bootloader. And seeing as that Cricket has been removing fastboot from their newly released phones we have a real struggle on our hands. I also have the lg stylo 2 from Cricket, and not only did they remove fastboot, they removed the entire bootloader. And without fastboot unlock, that bootloader is useless right now, need another way around. But from what i have read, FTM mode does have a form of fastboot built into it if anyone can figure out how to use. Has anyone had the nerve to take it apart and look for the Uart pinouts, if thats on the mother board thats our way in, Uart means instant rom dump and flash, hacker 101....
help get the root on the Alcatel 5056D tried all the programs on the phone and the computer.root is needed to add volume and clean the android
Sup people,
I bought a LG Harmony (cricket) as a quick replacement phone and was looking to root it. None of the one click root apps work so I figured I try a computer method. I seen a tutorial to root the K10/K20 (which is basically what the Harmony is so I've heard?) ..so I figured it would work, but I just cant get into fastboot. I tried the vol down thing as well as adb commands and it just won't go into fastboot. Is fastboot patched or something or is there another new method? Using 7.0 Nougat.
Bootloader Unlock
Hello...I have the LG Harmony as well. Just got it. I'm looking to modify the phone as well. Now, I'm a newbie as they say. Although I have rooted phones before, and successfully un-bricked a galaxy s2 a few years back. Anyway, you might go to the LG developer website and navigate to their unlocking the bootloader page. It gives you access to their tool (I believe) and has step by step instructions on how to go about unlocking the bootloader.
I'll be doing that soon myself. Have fun!
I went to the LG site already to look to see if they have a tool for the Harmony but I couldn't find anything. I had seen something on YouTube about a LG root tool as wrk but havent tried that. Let me know if you made any progress. I won't be able to try anything new until after I get off work.
Bootloader Unlock
Try going to mobile.developer.lge.com
There's an Unlock Bootloader option you can click on towards the bottom.
LG Harmony isn't listed under supported devices.
