LG Leon unlocking Bootloader - LG Leon Questions & Answers

I am not sure if the Lg Leon is locked or unlocked and don't have good references to check on youtube or forums.
I used to root and mod my android phones easily years ago, but sadly switched to an iphone :crying:
I'm trying to mod my phone by flashing the cyanogenmod 12.1
my phone is already rooted.
I need some help and guidance ASAP.

What software version are you running? Do you have TWRP or a custom recovery already installed?

ioroot is the way to go with any device, and root process doesn't brick device; if pa 4.4.3 is using lg official sources then you would just need to flash and your done
Ioroot25, as mentioned, to root. Use AutoRec to get recovery. Modem is fine since you're already on KitKat by the looks of it.
As far as which panel you have, there's methods to determine floating around, just search.

[Q] How do I install TWRP on LS980 4.4.2 ZVD?

Hello everyone, I am newly suscribed but I have been reading the xda forums since I first had my optimus black. Now I am the proud owner of the LG G2 LS980.
I am currently on Kitkat 4.4.2 ZVD and unlocked and rooted, my question is, how do I install TWRP? I read some formusm but still am not sure how to do it and I am scare to brick my phone. Can anyone help me? I read about autorec but I still worry the phone might brick or something because of downgrading the bootloader.
All I want to do is install TWRP to flash the Split screen mod. I already have the files for the mod.
I attached my software info.
any help will be greatly appreciated.

Leon Stock Kernel and Update Issues

Ok, so everyone with LG leon have H345 or H340 kernel and enjoying Android 5.1.1.
But my Leon ( bought in october 2015 ), has a kernel H32410C with Android 5.0.1.
I Tried update via mobile, LG PC Suite or LG Support tool but to no avail.
I might require some MAJOR help here. pretty pls.
p.s ; on net i saw t mobile and metropcs leon each giving out their own updates.
I would first suggest making a backup after rooting and installing twrp, since the old version allows you to unlock the bootloader, and newer version do not !!
Plenty of tutorials for this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-2/how-to/lg-leon-d-e-f-one-click-root-t3231622/page2 is simplest root.
I have the 10f, and can not unlock my bootloader to upgrade to MM Android 6.0, so if you do get a backup made via twrp, please let me know here.

LG G2 D801... Installing custom rom related question...

Hello
I have T-mobile variant of LG G2 D801 and i was thinking of installing custom rom on it.
But i have this query which i would like to ask before i continue.
My device is currently sim locked so after installing custom rom, will i be able to unlock it via code? or should i unlock it first then install?
Also it is weird to ask but after unlocking the device with stock rom, will it stay permanent? Is it possible for the device to get locked again after custom rom installed on it. I was thinking of installing CM13 on it.
Please help clear my doubts.. I am kind of new in this custom rom stuff. The last time i installed custom rom on a device was long ago and that device was also factory unlocked so it was piece of cake. So i am not sure how to proceed with this one...
Regards!!!

LG v20 safe to update?

Hello all!
It's been a while since I've been back, and i've definitely been out of the loop for this phone..
The last thing I did with it was right after I bought it, I unlocked it, rooted it, put TWRP custom recovery on it using the "dirtycow recowvery" patch and method.
Very very long time ago...
I'm still running Nougat 7.0.1 I believe? Basically whatever the phone shipped with.
I have the T-Mobile Variant:
LGH91860fbde7d
My main question is, any phone is unusable for me if I can't get Root, and a custom recovery on it.
What is the latest version/guide on the LG V20 of the latest version of Android that it supports to download and install where I can still Root, and put TWRP on it?
I did search the forum, but there's a lot of guides, and I don't want to "assume" that it's for the latest version of Android (Oreo?) for the V20, so I wanted to make sure
Thanks!!
