It's a phone for poor schmucks like me, so no one care much
Sad
Im sad this phone is nice and all but.. A custom rom would speed it up so much kinda need root access to begin. I can port a rom myself but the actual process of a root i know and love has failed me. Would love an outside opinion... Maybe someone will respond?

Can someone help? I've tried everything. I've exhausted my level of skill...

I found what appears to be a stock rom, but as a new member I can't link it.
It shows up as the first google result when I search "lg firmware list m151", hopefully that's enough for you to find it?
I found the firmware all ready thank you

Thank you, thank you , Thank you!! I know there's a button but I'm just so happy a donation will be heading ur way on payday! I bought a steel blue lg g3 from craigslist unknowingly what carrier it was paid the $250 for it only to get home and see a sprint boot logo and was devastated. Google reffered me to unlocking sites, are those trustworthy? I managed to install stump and recovery twrp daily easy. Your ROM saved my phone in a cm12 package, THANKS. No LTE but h+ on T-Mobile isn't too bad here in Chicago. Love it, love it love it. Would love a stock lollipop gsm unlock port but that's not something I'm trying to push on you. You have done a lot for me and its very well appreciated.

unicorn ROM not working for LG G3 for Sprint LS990, Stuck
After flashing unicorn DU_ls990_5.0.2_20150307-0123.v9.1-UNOFFICIAL, all google plays are not working. Tried to flash back to stock ROM, failed all the time. So Now I am stuck at this Unicorn, which pop up error messages regarding google apps all the time.
Installed quick boot to try to boot into TWRP but it did do anything. TWRP sees to work fine in background.
any way to fix it?

You need to flash the updated gaaps and you should always have a back up I just open the thread back open but it'll be a week or so before I'm developing again for this

I reckon you can just reflash with official firmware to get back.
As a side question where did you find the recovery and custom firmware? I'm planning to do that to mine but cant find the thing anywhere.

Have you tried doing a factory reset from the stock recovery?
If so then your best bet would be to bring it into a MetroPCS since your PC won't recognize the phone. They can flash the stock system back onto the phone.
Any time your going to root your phone the first thing you should do is anable USB debugging in developer options and make sure the drivers are installed for that phone on your PC just in case this happens.

How are you guys able to flash this recovery with a locked bootloader? Does this mean that the bootloader doesn't have t be unlocked for this to work? I remember reading from the Fierce XL thread in the early days we had issues with flashing partitions.

I was skeptical as well. But I guess all you have to do is flash the recovery image. I checked my backup location and the backup file is present. I also sucessfully flashed A.R.I.S.E and Atmos. But the question of CM came up in another forum and I'm wondering if now it may be possible to compile.

Alright, enjoy your recovery. I've yet to see TWRP 3.0 on this device. I wonder why. I built 3.x but it didn't boot, ported this one and it booted.
This is great! I had just about given up all hope for any progress on the Fierce XL and this comes along. Would be great to see a 3.0.X version but this is a start.
@kirito9, if I recall from the other thread everyone was kind of afraid to try the port cause at the time we didn't have factory images available in case things went south.

That's great . I have a device tree I think we can use as a base for getting CM12/13 on this device.
I'm not 100% certain but we may not have to unlock the bootloader for this device at all. Well at least fastboot works without unlocking BL s that's a start.
Do you have anyone else in mind to get something going for this device? My gmail is [email protected]
So ive been looking for a updated root for the sm-g530p. I cant seem to find anything other than a root that has a really old kernel.
If anyone knows anything comment below, thanks
I don't know if this helps or if your issue has been solved already, but I have a kernel called TrapKernel. Just look it up, download it on your computer, then flash through Odin. It is the best I know of. Also, if your issue is battery life, download "Root Booster" and buy the premium version of Battery Boost. It is well worth the cost

I ended up unrooting my phone because I don't have time to fix it if anything is to go wrong. I am starting my first job and also college soon..
But when I get on top of things I will come back on here. Maybe they'll have an OFFICIAL TWRP available for SM-G530P. Sorry to leave you hanging; I meant to comment again

I think there is now a newer kerneo for SM-G530P that is overclocked. I saw it today on a forum here but I didn't try it. But there are instructions on all files you find on XDA

I also noticed there IS now a TWRP on the TWRP website for SM-G530P. My phone is being stupid about recovery so I just gave up and unrooted when the official MD5 did not work

Could i get a link? Sorry sorta new to this.
Also do I use Odin?
Will i be able to make calls and texts on my current carrier.
I soon as i know i will root.
****RESEARCH FOR YOURSELF LIKE WE ALL HAD TO**** UNTIL YOU KNOW HOW TO INSTALL AND USE ADB ON YOUR PC AND KNOW BASIC ADB COMMANDS, ESPECIALLY REBOOT COMMANDS, DO NOT TRY ROOTING AT ALL.
After rooting, research TWRP and install it for your device- it is available on the twrp website and linked on other forums in XDA. THEN read about how to make NANDROID backups in TWRP. Also buy the pro versions of titanium backup pro, root booster (in-app purchases for getti g the full version),and es file explorer pro from the Play Store. Trust me, you will thank me later a lot. And even without root Nova Launcher Prime is the bomb (so is es file explorer pro)
I have a lot on my mind and schedule rn and don't have time to teach people (no offense)
You don't even need to ask unless you have a technical issue on XDA threads anyway as there are TONS of forums explaining everything step by step for android and rooting. Just make sure to never use anything from XDA unless it's labeled for your exact device model, even if it's only like one letter off (such as SM-G530H). ONLY SM-G530P OR YOU WILL REGRET IT; I'M SPEAKING OUT OF EXPERIENCE

Yes you of course will be able to make calls and texts as usual
So it seems I must be the only one with this phone.. can't find any threads or anything about it..
regardless ..
I have a Schok Freedom Turbo...
I ported a version of TWRP for it.. now I'm sure it's been posted elsewhere but I can't find the tutorial.. the only way I can get the touch screen to work is if I fastboot boot it or flash as the boot partition... How can I get the recovery partition to be able to use the touch screen... I know I'm missing something . Thanks all.. hopefully I can port a rom after I figure this one out.
Really? No one?
Wow ok cool. Glad I figured out my password to post. Ill try asking on whogivesa****.com ???
I have a few of these laying around. Were you able to get anywhere with yours?
Stock rom for mtk chip and nuget 7
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...Vaw0KK3oTrpu9WenjDrbla68f&cshid=1549964765600
Its on needrom.com there is link. Don t bother to back up. Use flash tool remove battery wait 30sec rellace battery leave of scatter load .exe download restart.
Back to normal.
Now take the stock rom you just got and bench it an force add or flash super su onto you copy of the rom in x system and a busy box. Fastboot and go throught the motions to flashify and root.

yeah....... NO.
that is not even close to going to work. i am just going to tell any onme reading this to not do that. no explanation needed.
flashing schok freedom turbo SFT5216
After following all of the instructions. The flash tool begins and is interrupted by the phone (SFT5216) powercycling. What causes the phone to reboot or reset the interface during flashing? Is this anything to do with a locked bootloader?
Are people still interested in this phone? Looked interesting to me, if you guys need anything dev wise (recovery, modded boot image for root, etc.) Let me know and ill see what i can do
Do you happen to have the xl version
i have the xl version i am going to try to root it tomorrow morning at work and hopefully it works out i will come back and update with how it went i was always attracted to this phone as a no trace option as i am against giving my name and credit card to anyone let alone a phone carrier company i am currently run a simple mobile aka tmobile network on it
Saw this phone and already thought it miht have some potential for being another Orbic Wonder. It is supposedly a phone put out by Huawei. I think im going to pick up this exact same model as there seems to be little or no dev done on it. We might dive into it.
