[Q] TMO D801 4.4.2 Root?

I see one other user posted the same question but the only response didn't understand the question.
Is there a way to downgrade my LG G2 that came with 4.4.2 so that I can root my device? Or, is there an alternate root method since IORoot still isn't supported?
I have a friend who has a Sprint LG G2 and they just pushed out 4.4.2 and he has the same audio sync issue as I have now. Youtube app is fine but games and the netflix app have out of sync audio. I had planned to root as soon as I got the phone but I'd be OK without rooting if I wasn't already having an issue.
Thanks in advance!

Any Successful Root out there for LG V20 Sprint LS 997ZV7 :)

Hello folks
I never used Android without root but looks like NO NO for this device.
Is there a root out there for this LG phone ? LG V20 LS997 ZV7 which I assume is version 7. I tried some auto root software but no luck. Looks like LG is not popular here. Phone is not bad but if I can root it .
Thanks in Advance for responding.
No root yet. There are some people still working on it.
Also the g5 and g6 forums are also working on it as far as i've been able to find though search.

Yes. Up to zv7. I have root now.
loopytee. Really??
loopytee: how did you do it??
If you do a search, there is a thread on how to use the VS995 KDZ to roll back, and then flash the Sprint firmware back on the phone after you are rooted....
Remember folks search is your friend.
EDIT: In the search bar on the left I typed in "ZV7 root" and the first hit was: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/root-ls997-to-zv9-t3696488

Need help rooting an LG V20 h91810s?

So I am interested in rooting my LG V20 h91810s. From what I gather I have to roll it back to 10j or i. I have the bootloader unlocked already. But I'm not sure about the rollback. Will a factory reset take it back to 10j or 10i? If not, I haven't been able to find step by step instructions on doing this. I think once I can get it rolled back I should be able to follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/instruction-to-root-h918-10i-t3536472 in order to root it. Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
No can do..... You will make your phone into a paper weight.
So there is no way to root it? I need to root it in order to recover some very important texts. If it can't be rooted does anyone know how I could recover a deleted sms thread?
Thread title changed on OP's request
Thank you very much.
As of right now anything 10p or higher is ARB01. Which means you can't roll back to root. Trying will create a brick. There are people working hard to make it happen but until then it's a waiting game. As for the recovery of SMS hopefully someone can help you. Chances are if you've searched and searched for an answer with no luck, it'll be hard to get that answer here. But you never know. Good luck.
Ah, that sucks. Well tyvm anyway.
We are both on the same boat unfortunately, we'll have to wait patiently.....
Me too waiting to root my h91810s.... hopefully someone will find a method soon.....
Sucks! But I like this phone. It'll be a shame to switch. ?

Yeah no reason for you to try... Cause of it works we would be rooted Samsung style using flashify instead of twrp.

No I remember I used it to root get the used flashify to flash TWRP.img then flashed magisk and removed kingroot after. If someone with a unlocked boot loader could try it because they had many requests for root
root

Care to interpret what exactly they did to root? Where to get files and how to? Maybe this can be changed to English format.....
Just wondering if there's a progress thread for the h91810s exploit. I just received mine and it's on the same firmware.

Need root method for Cricket LG Stylo 3 (LG-M430)

Has anyone successfully rooted this phone yet? LG Stylo 3 LG-M430 from Cricket?
Thanks
I have been trying. The boot loader is locked, like the Z983 Blade XMax. If you find something, let everyone here know please!! I have tried several methods, and explored via adb.. Nothing solid yet.
According to SRSroot's twitter just now they have found a one click method for the Cricket LG-M430.
The .exe file is for download on their wedsite (SRSroot.com) not sure if it works but I will try it as soon I get home.

These guys (SRSroot.com) are crooks, they tell you your phone is rootable via there app, then Then later tell you root isn't possible for your phone. still keeping your $40 bucks!

I think everyone's given up on this one.
Id like to give it a shot. It seems like this phone is a blend between the ph2n(MS550) and sf340n(MP450). I dont have a computer so ill get an OTG cable soon and see what i can do. Ive been using my Stylo 2 Plus with Magisk 18.0 and the ADB /Fastboot module to play with other devices. The beauty is if i do experience a brick my stylo2+ is at least factory unlocked....knock on wood. I would love getting one of these non metro/tmobile variants a new life

In the xda forum the MTK Easy Root method is available. Which gives you root permissions with the limitation that you cannot write to the system only read, that is. You cannot modify any file or delete apps from the system. But we are on the right track, I wonder if this method can advance something.
That's not going to work
the M430 is a Qualcomm soc https://www.gsmarena.com/lg_stylo_3_plus-8694.php

I think I found root for a similar phone with a larger screen at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81269513&postcount=5
I also see someone posted a youtube video about rooting the Stylo 3 (but I don't know whether it was the M430 or LS777) It apparently used a TWRP 3.2.1 for SF340. It was mentioned on getandroidtips.
This is my only working phone and I can't take it out of service yet.
