Hi guys!
Recently i buy this Photon Q 4G LTE Sprint to my wife's birthday.
It's a wonderfull device with a nice hardware, but the best is the external keyboard (She likes it, because his old device was Motorola dextr, and she was used to), but we're from brazil and my first difficulty was to find a rom that support drivers without bugs.
So here i was: My first try was MIUI. I unlocked my bootloader, rooted and installed TRWP. Didi Backup, formated and installed MIUI, :good:
First i tryed with Kernell the UFO developed for it, and the device don't boot. After i tryed just the rom, but it has no modem or wifi. So i flashed up the stock rom modem img and worked fine.
But apks like "retrica" doesn't work with it, bringing black photos and others apks made for instragram. I love this rom and i have installed in my Xperia Play. It works perfect, but in this device have a lot of bugs, so i give up.
I know how to use it with bugs, but not my wife. Then i had to try another one.
I downloaded Cyanogenmod CM10.1, CM10.2, CM11 nightly, snapshot. Then after try all "Xt897" roms, i tryed all "moto_msm8960".
I can't get in any of this roms make my wifi or 3G work. I believe that modem is not compatible. Even if i tryed to flashed stock modem after, i still had no signal at all. No IMEI, no MAC Address, nothing. :crying:
This device have few alternative roms, so i decided try to translate the rom with less bugs at all. I picked up the stock rom JellyBeans 4.1.2, but this was my second failure. A language patch is something that you don't find in market, and to disassembly entire rom and work in a translate is something beyond my knowledges.
So i have an answer to someone that know how to do a fix patch to wifi in cyanogenmod(Specific "cm-11-20140518-NIGHTLY-moto_msm8960.zip" ), or someone good in translate rom, or input a language in stocked rom, like The Solutor did in " [Full ICS ROM] Multilanguage/Toggle2g /STK/Tethering" (but the rom he used was 4.0.4 and it have bugs).
I will be grateful for any help. :fingers-crossed:
Hmm, what's the language you want (CM11 already have lots of them - not in the list?), and what WiFi/3G problem are you having? And you also failed to RSD the phone back to stock?
My recommendation is you first sort the RSD thing out and get the phone back to stock 4.1.2, and flash everything from that onwards. Assuming that you don't do anything wrong in the process, you should have no quirks with WiFi/3G.
Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM11
Try MoreLocale2 for the stock ROM language issues.
As for the CM issues... I agree with Andy, if it works in stock form, it "should" work on CM - at least that has been my experience.
You are clean wiping / factory resetting before or after flashing CM yes? I see you have done this step for MIUI, so I am thinking that you have already done this step...
If you have, can you provide logs from CM if the wiping/RSD'ing doesn't work?
Thx for help guys...
AndyYan - The language i need is Portuguese(Brasil) and it has on CM 11 and MIUI.
I did it as you said. I downloaded stock from here:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=3
Rom version: Android 4.1.2 - Blur_Version.98.10.5.XT897.Sprint.en.US)
And flashed by RSD.
Everything ok till here. No errors, nothing wrong. Wifi working as well, and the network.
My MIUI was taken from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2444449 (GSM one).
Cool rom, it has wifi and network, but camera bugs with some apks. For me ok, but not for my wife. So this rom was discarded.
CM i dwonloaded from here: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=moto_msm8960
The last one was: cm-11-20140521-NIGHTLY-moto_msm8960.zip (i tryed all of then "XT897" and "moto_msm8960", but none of them could get my network working. No wifi, no IMEI, no MAC, no wifi).
CM was my hope, because it has my language, but in all tries i did the wipe in cache, dalvik, system, factory, even internal memory, before installing, and cache or dalvik after flash. I tried this in all (tried not wiping too) and still has no modem.
After this, just for try, i flashed stock modem "NON-HLOS.bin". Still got no modem in any CM roms.
arrrghhh - i did try "MoreLocale2" for the stock rom, and "Set Locale and Language" (and more). This softwares did a nice job for keyboards and apks, but system stays intact in english. It need to be a real translation for my wife.
My guess is that this issue can be easily solved.
If all JB roms have the same system(at least for "moto_msm8960" processor kind ).
This ROM is generic for Motorola Atrix HD, Electrify M, Photon Q, RAZR HD, and RAZR M right?
Razr HD is a type of phone that came to my country.
Is it possible compile a system from Brasil career stock, for this phone with modem and anything else from my stock rom? Does it will crash my phone?
Please provide logs from the latest build of CM after booting and attempting to engage/connect to wifi.
Logs??
Sotty about my doubt, but i don't know what kind of logs do you want(i'm not used to).
Logs from TWRP in instalation?
This is easy. Installation was made with no errors and succesfully.
Does CM made logs itself??
If does, i dont know how to get them. Please send me a link.

CM does create logs. If you're not familiar with them, the easiest way is to use an app from the Play Store... which I'm not sure how you will manage without wifi or mobile data, and I assume you are not familiar with adb.
I can go thru the detail, but it's a bit involved. Perhaps this thread will help you?
Once you know how adb works, there's actually an easier method than using adb logcat to output to a file - there are logs stored in '/data/logger'. So:
Code:
adb root
So you can have the permissions to pull the files, then pull them:
Code:
adb pull /data/logger
Will pull all of the log files to wherever your command prompt is. If you 'cd' (change directory) to your desktop, doing the adb pull will send all the log files to your desktop.
Let me know if you have any questions, good luck.
Logs from Adb
Yeap! I'm familiar with ADB!!
(i'm not expert in it, but i already did something with that...)
I don't know exactly what are you lookin for, so i did two logs.
First a complete boot:
Code:
adb reboot system
adb logcat -v long > boot_log.txt
And one for especific modem log from boot
Code:
adb reboot system
adb logcat WifiStateMachine:E *:S -v long > just_wifi_error.txt
(I believe this this won't help u a lot?!)
The first one is the most complete solution for this and have all the boot infos, errors and other things.
If am i wrong please say the correct command to use.
I forgot something...
In filemanager i can't access internal storage.
It shows /storage/emulated/0, and points to nothing.
If i'm right, this was a well know bug on CM 10.2, which supposedly been fixed in CM 11 right?!
I think that information can help to solve this bug...
Please try the adb pull command I sent... Those logs are not very helpful, and quite difficult to read.
However, I have a feeling if you use RSD Lite to flash everything back stock, confirm it works, then start with the latest CM, I'd be curious if it works.
Also, someone mentioned they needed to install the CM10.2 snapshot before going to CM11 - or else BT and wifi did not work.
Eureca...
That is something that i didn't tried! I'd never flashed CM 10 in first!!!
I'm downloading "cm-10.2-20131102-SNAPSHOT-M1-xt897.zip ".
Fisrt i'll flash stock "Blur_Version.98.10.5.XT897.Sprint.en.US" with RSD.
Then fastboot "logo.bin" (to avoid warning unlocked), and TRWP(my stock have a original recovery that can't install CM. I can edit XML, but to cleanse my conscience i'll let this way).
After i'll install "cm-10.2-20131102-SNAPSHOT-M1-xt897.zip" with TRWP and boot with this one.
Then i'll flash "cm-11-20140526-NIGHTLY-moto_msm8960.zip ".
But i'll have to do this at night(it's 12pm here), because i'm working today.
If that don't work i'll pull the log that you said here, but I come back to thank.
Same problem
I confess I was hopeful in that case you said to flash first the CM 10.2.
But again failed. I tried two ways:
In both I tried to install the Snapshot CM 10.2, then the CM 11.
There is no way that cell boot with "CM 10.2" in any case. That saty on boot animation for several time(i waited 30 minutos each).
In the first I downgraded to version 4.0.4 stock to see if the modem worked.
After that i flashed CM 10.2 that stood in boot animation, then CM 11 booted without modem signal (no wi-fi, no signal).
I taked the log for that version (attachment named log_4.0.4.7z)
On the second attempt, I used the default stock 4.1.2.
After CM 10.2 which was stucked on boot animation again, then CM 11 again booted without modem signal (no wi-fi, no signal).
I taked the log for that version (attachment named log_4.1.2.7z)
Strange thing happened on both CM 11 boot. When the system's load, it shows a message "The clock stopped". This is strange thing for me.
Can you wait for CM10.2 to boot...? There is a fsck process which sometimes takes quite a long time to boot.
Also, for your FC issue - you are clean flashing the ROM everytime? You are doing a factory reset everytime you flash a new ROM?
Edit - looking at your logs, I don't think the fsck is the issue... something is causing the CM10.2 boot to die over and over. Please try clean flashing...
I clean everything before.
Yeap. What do you call a clean flashing?
Everytime i flash some ROM, i do factory reset, clean cache and dalvik.
The ROM is flashed on a clean state of the stock one. Is this the clean you are talking about?
CM was taken about 30 minutes to boot, and yet don't load system.
This is why i stop that and flash CM 11 over it.
Is this time bigger than that? How long your cell take to boot this CM 10.2?

Yes, factory reset == clean flash.
As for the long boot, I'm not sure the fsck is your issue - basically there is a process which runs a disk check, and sometimes this will make the boot take quite longer than usual. I can't say how long, I've never personally experienced the issue.
However, the fact that CM10.2 isn't booting is a little disturbing. I've heard some people report 45-60 mins... can you do me a favor, charge up the phone, and try to let it boot for at least 90 minutes?
If at the 90min mark it still hasn't booted, pull logs and post them.
Thanks.
The logs contain references to apps that are present only in stock firmware.
That means the CM boot is actually not happening in a clean environment (the data wipe/factory reset in TWRP hasn't worked as it should?).
Please try to use OpenRecovery 2.09 instead of TWRP (as OR is the recovery I personally use and watch for possible bugs) to wipe the device and to install CM11 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2211579&page=10
When installing CM in recovery, you will probably also want to install the gapps package - http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
Btw., CM11 expects the baseband (modem) and other partitions the be at the 4.1.2 stock level. Experiments with 4.0.4 are useless.
Please post the logs from CM11 boot.
You will need to enable the logger under CM11 by
Code:
su
setprop persist.log.aplogd.enable 1
in Terminal app or ADB shell, it's not enabled on CM11 by default.

Hi... My TRWP version is "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-asanti_c.img".
Something is not ok with this one. Sometimes this one format the cache, sometimes not.
I have to do it a lot of times and when i try to format data partition, this just reload the TWRP.
I want to install this one that you said, but those links in the post you sent are broken.
Can you please send me another one?

I'm on an older version of TWRP, and it has never failed me... that's a shame really. I'll try to update and see what's what. In the meantime, flash OpenRecovery I linked above ^^.

TWRP 2.6.3.x should also work properly.
@arrrghhh, so you see it's not just me having the "wiping /data reboots the recovery" problem... I've already sold my PQ (might buy a new one in the future), but please do help let this problem be known to whoever's developing TWRP for us
Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM11
I can't believe it works
Unbelievable! :laugh:
This very simple solution worked for me.
My TRWP did not work right.
He said he had done successfully in cleaning the cache and manufactures, but did not.
I downloaded the link you guys sent me and it worked on the first try.
Not needed before installing CM 10.2. Already installed in the first CM 11, has worked with modem and everything. Now I can configure the GSM network my country and language of the country for my wife (PR-BR).
I want to thank the efforts of user @ AndyYan to respond, the attention given by the user @ Arrrghhh teaching me with patience, and the solution given by the user @ kabaldan. :victory:
You are awesome for this forum. Thanks for everything.
If you still want the log I get, but I think with everything working, you guys should already know the outcome.

This is a problem with most 5.1 roms. Mostly after using another audio app like hangouts phone,whatsapp phone,music players and video players. Driver is not released back too phone.Reboot is needed . On a good note, Paranoid Android 5.1.1 has just come out with an update and an audio patch that fixed mine. Hope this helps.
I don't get any signal
My phone after updating it to candy 5(5.1 Lollipop) I can't get any signal?
Please Help!

This is the best rom I have installed ever since fixing my bricked Skyrocket a couple weeks ago.
Latest Version 5/15:
After installing the latest update the data drops far less frequently... however it is still a good five times every twenty minutes or when I send two or more text messages. I tried rebooting, messing with wifi/airplane mode, removing excess APN's, and using Signal Boosters which are junk. Folders seem to be a bit different and overall rom is a bit more laggy compared to previous version. My recents menu did not work, holding the home button with no response, fixed by turning on OmniSwitch.
Installing SlipLP fixed the data, so I am confident you will figure it out for Candy! If only I digged the look of SlimLP.
Will report back next update, still learning how to Logcat... I will post if I figure it out tonight.
I am not getting any charging or heat issues like the poster above. I did not change to noop prior to writing this.
Found a PERMANENT signal fix!
Apparently this has something to do with the radio being flashed and 5.x.
Here is how you fix it, I have not had one drop in signal since my previous post!
(For AT&T, T-Mobile, possibly others)
1. Download the [UCMC1] I717 AT&T Radio
http://d-h.st/PKI
- official thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2228292
2. Either Clean flash or Recover from a backup of Candy 5.x
3. Install the AT&T Radio
Signal drop is fixed, select your APN and enjoy!
I suggest this for those who are using AT&T Servers, T-Mobile, or etc. If not visit here and find your carrier radio... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785999
I hope this helps everybody! :good::fingers-crossed:
I am not a professional, I have been flashing custom for a couple years here and there! This is working on my device, I now have ZERO signal drops and perfect signal, please allow OP to further test.

Thanks, yes the UCMC1 radio or newer is needed for this. It is one of the last versions available for the Skyrocket. My Slim threads have this but I didn't see that mentioned here, so I have updated the OP.

Make sure you are using an up-to-date version of GApps. Recommended is Slim's Zero GApps (~60MB), a link to which you can find in the OP.
Google Cards
The google now widget I can't find under the widgets tab is their anyway to retrieve it?

How would you update the 2.53 version to this one?

When you flash the ROM, either the GApps package you flash needs Google Now (might be Google Search, not sure), or you need to install it from the Play Store separately. Voice input on the AOSP/Google keyboards may be missing as well until you do.
I partitioned my Skyrocket to have a 6GB Data partition so the tiny GApps is fine and I can install pretty much all I want for apps. It's quite nice.

Flashing Potential Issue
I am currently Flashing the ROM using TWRP and everything seems good it's just that its stock on "Patching system unconditionally" It's been on that step for about ten minutes. I did the Cache and Dalvick Cache wipes. So I Don't know what I did wrong.

Then it sounds like there were core changes which may require a full wipe (/data or a factory reset).
I normally clean flash to test, so unless I've made a change that I know requires a full wipe, or coming from another version (5.0 vs. 5.1, etc.) I would suggest to try dirty first and see. If you get stuck, as you have, then I'd go clean.
Sorry for any inconvenience...

Have you wiped /system in the process?
Have you formatted your device with ODIN using a PIT file, or have you used any virtual partitioning?
Post your recovery log. You can export it from TWRP.

Recently, I have been able to download apps from the Google Play Store perfectly normal. Although I can not download from browser. When I try to download any kind of file from the browser I go to my downloads and it only shows it in the Queue. I am also unable to take a photo with the camera and go to the gallery to view it. I also can not transfer files through fast boot or recovery (I use Skipsoft Toolkit). Due to being unable to add any files I can not attempt to install a new rom, kernel, or anything else. Earlier today when I plugged it into the charger, it rebooted and kept starting up to where it said Google (screen you see even if booting into fastboot) and bootloop restarting at that point but I left it and it eventually started up. There have also been random reboots. All help will be GREATLY appreciated. Phone info below.

It was my first Android also.
Been waiting for a modern ROM for it...
I think I got it loaded, but can't get thru the setup, due to popups...
com.android.phone has stopped...
google play services has stopped....
"that" has stopped...
"whatever" has stopped.....
Edit: I reinstalled the ROM today, and was able to setup properly. Only quirk so far is a red outline that flashes around the screen occasionally.
great news!
@mdmower - I was following your GitHub notes over the past while, always hoping there would be something which we could use!
Thanks to all involved - I still have and use my evita, but often with an alternate SIM for travel. It is still a very nice phone. I put new batteries in both my evita, and my wife's, and they keep going. But security... That's where LineageOS, and this build, will be crucial.
I need my evita as a daily-driver for the next couple of weeks, so I'll eagerly read the results from others for now. But I have three other devices using unofficial LineageOS builds, and I'm very happy with them.
Thank-you, everyone!

I'm not sure just what worked, because I tried so many things. I even tried flashing the evita-x twrp, but it didn't work, so I reflashed the twrp in the op. At one point, I thought I was really screwed, because the data partition showed a size of 0. Then I re-did the format data (step 6), and was able to install the ROM and get thru the setup.
You might try reflashing the twrp, and repeat step 6.
Also, I installed the ROM by itself, booted and setup.
Then flashed gapps and rebooted.
Then flashed SuperSU.

Great development on the One XL. Thanks guys for the great work. I managed to install the rom. It however seem unstable and apps taking long to open. Also the red box on the edge of the screen. Will try wipe and reflash and see if there will be an improvement
WOW! Nougat on a Five Year-Old Phone!
Thank you so much. You guys are amazing. I can't believe I'm running Android 7.1 on a five year-old phone. Everything works and is running pretty smooth (except for occasional red border flash).
As things turned out, my good old HTC One X has become my primary phone for the time being. And here I am running Nougat. I guess it says a lot about this phone's build quality that it has lasted so long. My deep appreciation to all the XDA developers and their amazing ROMs, apps and troubleshooting tips that have kept this phone, amazingly, at the forefront of Android development all these years.
Well, I couldn't wait. And the summary: I am thrilled
Here are some notes and observations, while installing lineage-14.1-20170226-UNOFFICIAL-evita.zip:
from within TWRP-3.0.N2-1, device always performs a full system-reboot when selecting "Reboot to Recovery". You have to reboot to fastboot (press-and-hold Vol-Down and Power), then enter recovery from the fastboot menu. Later, from within Lineage OS, you *CAN* reboot to Recovery.
cannot flash this ROM and nanoGapps queued together: insufficient memory. Flash this ROM first, then use TWRP file-manager to delete the ROM .zip. Now, there will be sufficient space to flash nanoGapps.
there are plenty of red-border-flashes during setup, and during regular operation It seems like just about every user-input-event, and maybe even every install-decision-point will produce this. It's actually slower than a "flash" - more like a red-border-blink I doesn't hurt anything, and I suspect this will be ironed-out later.
this ROM doesn't include 'su' (SuperUser). For this installation, I opted to use Lineage's 'addonsu-arm-signed.zip'
My roaming SIM won't work where I am now, but I have input my voip details into the provided dialer, and voip/SIP calls work as they should. I added Yahoo as a CM_WeatherProvider, and now cLock looks and works as expected.
a huge THANKS guys, for bringing this ROM to this point - @h8rift, @mdmower, @jrior001 !
Wow, guys this is great!
Thanks for the hard work.
What can we expect from this? Will it be patched to fix bugs or is this a "one build"?
Also, question for the devs: can one realistically hope to use Nougat on evita as a daily driver or is this device simply too old? I'm on CM12.1 and it's not that smooth. Would switching to Nougat better or worsen the experience?
For current testers: what features are currently working (camera, GPS, etc.)?
Again, hat's off!
Device Encryption busted
Device Encryption does not work.
(to be honest, this seems hit-or-miss with other LineageOS 14.1 ROMs; maybe even more "miss" than "hit" :-O . My Nexus 5 will encypt fine; my Nexus 7 (2012) won't).
Camera Works
I've attached an image OF YOUR QUESTION @Luxoboy to show that the camera works. The (exif??) data that I can see in the LineageOS Gallery app shows reasonable information too.
It doesn't seem to crash, nor have weird colors, for still-photos.
HTH,
WiFi stumbles a bit
OK... During setup, the first inkling of a rough-spot for WiFi showed up (for me): finding and displaying WiFi SSIDs took *forever*... Maybe I even skipped past that, and went back to set up WiFi access after the setup was finished and Lineage OS was fully running.
In actual hand's-on usage, I've found that the WiFi connection is both a bit weaker (fewer bars, doesn't reach as far) and lower-throughput than other devices. Both the 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands work; max throughput on 5GHz was 135Mb/s for me, right next to my 802.11n router (running DD-WRT). It's OK though.
Also during use, I sometimes noticed the WiFi icon, and the Settings -> WiFi progress indicating a drop + renew of the WiFi. Right now, my evita is at home while I'm at work - the phone is charging/sleeping but my Voice-Over-IP SIP provider site shows that the evita isn't registered... I suspect that WiFi isn't working, when it was during breakfast when I was playing with it...
The WiFi is certainly usable, but it does stumble a bit here-and-there, it appears.
Does anyone else experience the same, or something different with WiFi?
Nice! thanks guys! The red flashing border and a little lag is
the only thing I see so far... This is awesome!

You need to root device(install addonsu-arm-signed.zip from attachment) and then add 2 lines to the end of file /system/build.prop with any root file explorer and reboot it.

worked like a charm! Thanks!

Thanks, this fixed the red border flashing, and also has made the phone seem to run more smoothly. I already flashed the latest (2017) version of SuperSU when I flashed the ROM. I notice your attachment has a different version of SuperSU. Is there a difference between the version in your attachment vs. the latest one on the chainfire website. Thanks for your advice.

beta 2 uploaded
dt2w works, bluetooth audio works, camcorder works.
wifi still partially broke and is a wip. after that its on to lineage os 15 for the h631
wifi works now and the end? of lineage 14.1 dev is here. everything seems to work now
release 1 is posted in the op.
Awesome work! I've finally got me a full featured daily driver
I still got my OG Stylo lying around somewhere. Guess I'll give this ROM a try...
After attempting to reboot after installing, I got a "Kernel Crash!" error. Now my Wi-Fi won't work after restoring a Nandroid backup. Good thing the OG Stylo isn't my primary phone, anymore.
EDIT: I just realized Bluetooth is busted, too.
EDIT 2: After reading from sources outside of XDA, the firmware should have definitely been on v20k before flashing this. Oh well. I might check into attempting to fix the issues, one day.
But ever since I moved on to the OnePlus 5, I only use the OG Stylo as an alarm clock. As long as that still functions, at least it won't end up in the dumpster.
Gave this ROM a go. VERY pleased! WiFi had a hiccup but now working. I can connect to Bluetooth but can not hear audio. Any others come across this? I'm on the metro version of the Stylo.
Thanks in advance.

I have a MS631 (MetroPCS).
S/W : MS63120p
Is it possible to install and any plan to post Official Release (14.1 or 15 later)?
Thanks..
This is cool... hoping to get a Google-less minimal fernsprecher going, but this time (compared to your other 14.1 build) I can't see any providers-- just 'error while searching for networks.' Now I'm guessing the reason is the same in both cases-- I started from wrong official ROM. Can anyone point to a 63120k kdz? All the old links I found yet are dead
ed: Tried to prove to myself that a kdz was even useful. I have a few wrong kdz sitting around still-- 10j, 20b, 20l. LG Flash Tool wouldn't actually change anything, ever, no matter what. ("Consult your system administrator". Well, he's me... baka.) And LGUP looked like it was doing great the first time, right up until it gave me back a shiny brick (QHSUSB__BULK), so ...maybe later?
:: phasepalm ::
ed-2: found https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-ms631-firmwares/ so now all I have to do is get QFIL to do anything.
I love this OS. I removed the Nexus launcher and installed the new pixel 2 launcher in its place though. Every now and again I have to disconnect and reconnect Bluetooth. But that's not really a problem for me. WiFi sometimes drops but reconnect. I can't wait for the new lineage OS.
Any update?

Nope, because the OP's phone was destroyed.
On another note: I was also able to get my OG Stylo up and running again with LG Bridge yesterday, with the latest official update (Marshmallow). I might try this ROM again, one day.

Hey there I got it. What I did was I hooked up to LG Bridge and let LG do the repair from the upgrade repair button and it got my phone back to square one which was fine. From there i unlocked the bootloader and booted from TWRP 2.8.7.1 image file and then once inside TWRP I installed version TWRP 3.2.0-0 recovery from the zip file. At that point I then was able to do an advanced wipe and wipe out the system and then do the lineage install from there. Once that worked I wiped it out and installed CyanogenMod just to see if it will go on as well and it did. So I went back and wipe that out and put the lineage OS back on there with the opengapps and it's running flawlessly! I also installed magisk to root it and everything is running fine. The only thing I miss from the LG part of the software was the knock on knock off feature. And I downloaded a tap on tap off app for that but you can't use any other locks with it. but I'm good, and thanks! Because I hated that stock operating system with all the bloatware even though MetroPCS didn't have as much garbage as the T-Mobile or other versions but still now I can control Play Store and everything else. I in fact use APK pure to get most of my apps if I can find the software there.
Hey I got my LG g Stylo and might use it again with lineage on it. I need to understand you're flashing a nougat custom rom over a mm stock room and it works? Also, I have 20o and in reading I see 20k is the requirement? Hope to hear feedback, thanks in advance. And can anybody tell me how they got twrp 3.0.2 on the stylo? I can't seem to do it with an unlocked bootloader via adb.

Your best bet is (very likely) to back up stuff and wipe it all out. I use SMS Backup Restore, manually export contacts, copy the files to SD, etc. Then to answer your other question-- root using apk from Kingroot.net which works but it loses root every time you reboot. So before you do, you can use Flashify to flash TWRP onto recovery, also run TitaniumBackup once and put everything on SD card. Then with TWRP running you could install SuperSU zip onto the stock rom and it actually sticks, but you would (make yet another backup and) wipe the phone before starting fresh with Lineage and then restoring your stuff piecewise. That was last year, though, might have forgotten something. Like it's hard to remember but I *think* you can skip the Kingroot & Flashify routine altogether, just reboot to fastboot and on the computer 'fastboot boot twrp-x.x.x.x.img' to boot it once-- even though it won't flash it directly. Then 'adb push twrp-x.x.x.x.img /sdcard' and then inside TWRP, flash it using [Install Image] under [Install] instead of the usual zip file. HTH

The phone is bricked now. I did a fastboot boot twrp and installed magisk zip. Then installed flashify and flashed twrp image. Then formatted data and installed the lineage os and it didn't go through. I was in a hurry so I didn't backup the stock ROM. And so I pulled the battery and put it in download mode and flashed kdz. And when it finished the screen went black and shows no signs of life no matter what I do.
