LG Power (l22c) Recovery file replaced. TWRP not working. Help! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have an LG Power that has been rooted, and it was working fine until about a day ago, when I was trying to install TWRP and it didn't work. Each time I try to enter recovery mode, it says
The way I tried to install TWRP was by replacing the system hard reset file.
The TWRP file was made for the LG Leon, but the leon is almost identical to the LG Power. HELP!

How do you root a Tracfone? They are locked down tighter than garbage in a trash compactor.

I have the Lg Power as well. It has been stuck on the LG emblem. I need the stock firmware to flash back. Someone please help. 5.0.1 L22CV10a.1421747164, sdk 21 --MSM8916 Linux 3.10.49-gfa9ace2-00001-gbce8a10 Device y50c I am new to this but i had rooted the phone, had custom recovery installed. Didnt know that it replaced the recovery file and did a hard reset. But i can easily explain how to root and replace kingroot with superuser. I just need help locating the factory firmware. Have looked and cant find anything on this phone. Thx

Looks like someone on here is posted the rom, but you need to sign up to see the DL links. I tried signing up, but it gave me an error. I may be doing something wrong, as most of the site looks like it is in Chinese...

I just used xda RootJunky's Amazon Fire 5th Gen SuperTool (April 6, 2016 version), JUST AS IT IS, to root my Tracfone LG L22C Power. With only a couple of mouse clicks.
Tracfone LG L22C Power info:
Model Number: LGL22C
Android version: 5.0.1
Kernel version: 3.10.49
Build number: LRX21Y
Software version: L22CV10a
The SuperTool batch file script rooted the phone with KingRoot and then uninstalled KingRoot and installed SuperSu.
I have since installed ES File Manager, Titanium Backup, Link2sd on the phone. Root is totally working. Rooted with only a couple of clicks!
Just enable Developer options on LG L22C (by tapping phone Build Number 7 to 10 times [Settings, About Phone, Software info, Build Number (tap 7 to 10 times)]), enable USB debugging on L22C in the Developer options settings.
Connect L22C to Windows 10 with a USB data cable (I used the USB 2.0 port). When screen message on the L22C mentions MTP mode, tap that and change to PTP mode on the phone.
Install RootJunky's SuperTool to the Windows 10 desktop.
Run RootJunky's SuperTool (Amazon-Fire-5th-gen.bat) You may have to read the instructions on the pages below and install adb drivers. Pick option #6 Root. Choose Option #3: version 5.1.2.
Press enter and KingRoot will be installed on the phone from the SuperTool. (approve any messages that appear on phone screen) Now don't touch the PC SuperTool until the phone is rooted.
Open KingRoot on the phone and run it. You may have to run KingRoot several times and the phone may reboot. Just keep running KingRoot until the LG L22C is rooted. After KingRoot reaches 100%, then press ENTER on the PC.
The SuperTool will now uninstall KingRoot and install SuperSU on the phone.
Choose NORMAL SuperSU install on the phone when prompted. When SuperSU is installed, reboot the phone. Disconnect data cable.
After reboot the LG L22C Power is rooted. There will be a request by SuperSU to upgrade. Approve it. You can now install Titanium Backup, Link2sd, ES File Manager, etc. Your phone is rooted. As easy as that. THANKS ROOTJUNKY!!!

Don't know what I messed up trying to root

sorry wrong device
?
Rallypig31 said:
So after reading and watching videos i attempted to root my Kindle Fire 7 (1st gen) ( I have jail broken iphones no problem, rooted my galaxy s4 no problem) kept having issues getting it rooted so i kept I trying on both my laptop and desktop pc's finally got SuperSU on it thought it was rooted but its not. Apps to check for root says its rooted but Es File manager wont give me root access, one app says busy box IS installed another says it isn't. I attempted root with Bin4ry root method. Kindle itself runs fine and boots up fine.
Also when i open SuperSU it says that the SU Binary needs to be updated I hit Continue and no matter which option i choose (Normal or TWRP/CWM) it says installation failed. I've tried re-rooting/Un-rooting, updating SuperSU, I've tried Kindle Fire First Aid tool. I Have a factory cable now. But KFFT wont put kindle into fastboot, Even if turn the kindle on with the factory cable the kindle will boot in fastboot mode, I try option 3 in KFFT (restore) say no when it asks if I want KFFT to put it into Fastboot mode KFFT will flash a screen, then on the bottom it says it downloaded 3 images and then just says waiting for device and thats it. I've even tried the built in option on the kindle to factory reset just to try but after rebooting SuperSU app is still there.
At this point all im trying to do is get it back to how it was out of the box.
I have the android SDK installed and im completely clueless on ADB, when I open CMD its at C:\users\my name\desktop> and if i try any of the fastboot commands nothing works.

Lenovo Tab 2 A8-50F bootloop help

Hello sorry if posted in wrong section. First off i have minimal knowlage about Rooting other than using Framroot on my old phone which has never had any problems. So like an idiot i didnt make a backup before messing with my tablet. I have a Lenovo Tab 2 A8-50F (Stock recovery says A8-50_S000037_151023_ROW) that I rooted using Kingroot. That worked fine after rebooting but then i used Supersu Me to install Super su and that also installed fine but after updating the binirary using normal and rebooting its now in a bootloop i guess. When i first restarted it it booted up but then got stuck so i ended up doing a clear cache and factory reset but now it goes to the factory reset only to get stuck at the same spot during the install. I have been trying to find info about bootloops but none of it is helping me since i only know so much and have no backup to try to install. I managed to get into stock recovery where it says install from adb,sd,and cache + got into Fastboot to try to install TWRP that i got from a root pack for the tablet but i am doing it wrong or its not working? So pretty much i have no backup,no custom recovery and not sure what to do or if theres any way to fix this? Also i looked for the stock image or rom i guess you call it but cant find anything for my model. Oh and i did the root integrity check in my recovey options and it comes up with a System check fail..Error found 24 new files and 3 modified files...if that helps any. It would be great to get it working agian no matter if its stock or a custom rom or whatever. If anyone can help me with this or direct me to where i can find what i need i would be very greatfull. I know this is a long post but im just trying to get you all the info i can. Thanks very much for your time.
I used KingRoot (ver 4.8.2) to root my Lenovo Tab2 A8-50F Tablet.
I used KingRoot as part of a SuperTool. The SuperTool, using a batchfile script, also removed KingRoot after the tablet was rooted and then installed SuperSU.
The SuperTool (April 6, 2016 version) was created by xda's RootJunky for the Amazon Fire 7 5th gen tablet, using KingRoot and SuperSU, but it rooted my Lenovo Tab2 A8-50F Tablet, uninstalled KingRoot and installed SuperSU, all with only a couple of mouse clicks.
Even if you are already rooted with KingRoot, you can use this tool to uninstall KingRoot and install SuperSU. (Just run the tool, let it re-install KingRoot, don't run KingRoot but hit Enter on the SuperTool to then uninstall KingRoot and install SuperSU).
Lenovo Tab2 A8-50F Tablet info:
Model Number: Lenovo TAB 2 A8-50F
Android version: 5.1
Kernel version: 3.10.65
Build number: A8-50F_S000037_151023_ROW
Software version: A8-50F_151023
Hardware version; LenovoPad A8-50F
The SuperTool batch file script rooted the tablet with KingRoot and then uninstalled KingRoot and installed SuperSu.
I have since installed ES File Manager, Titanium Backup, Link2sd on the tablet. Root is totally working. Rooted with only a couple of clicks!
Just enable Developer options on Lenovo Tab2 A8-50F (by tapping tablet Build Number 7 to 10 times [Settings, About Tablet, Build Number (tap 7 to 10 times)]), enable USB debugging on Tablet in the Developer options settings.
Connect Tablet to Windows 10 with a USB data cable (I used the USB 2.0 port). When screen message on the Tablet mentions connections, make sure it is in the MTP mode.
Extract RootJunky's SuperTool Zip file to the Windows 10 desktop.
Run RootJunky's SuperTool (Amazon-Fire-5th-gen.bat) You may have to read the instructions on the pages below and install adb drivers. Pick option #6 Root. Choose Option #3: version 5.1.2. This will run a script that installs KingRoot, allows you to run it manually, and then removes KingRoot and installs SuperSU.
Press enter and KingRoot will be installed on the Tablet from the SuperTool. (approve any messages that appear on Tablet screen) Now don't touch the PC SuperTool until the Tablet is rooted.
Open KingRoot on the Tablet and run it. You may have to run KingRoot several times and the Tablet may reboot. Just keep running KingRoot until the Tablet is rooted. After KingRoot reaches 100%, then press ENTER on the PC.
The SuperTool will now uninstall KingRoot and install SuperSU on the Tablet.
Choose NORMAL SuperSU install on the Tablet when prompted. When SuperSU is installed, reboot the Tablet. Disconnect data cable.
After reboot the Lenovo Tab2 A8-50F Tablet is rooted. There will be a request by SuperSU to upgrade. Approve it. You can now install Titanium Backup, Link2sd, ES File Manager, etc. Your Tablet is rooted. As easy as that. THANKS ROOTJUNKY!!!

EZ Root + TWRP + Debloat - LG Leon

ALL TESTED ON A T-MOBILE LG LEON ON 5.1.1 - MAY WORK FOR OTHER VARIENTS
ROOT
Enable Unknown Sources In Settings Under Security And Turn Off Verify Apps
Go To Your Web Browser And Download And Install KingRoot With This Link: https://kingroot.net/
Open The App And Do The 1 Click Root Process Which Should Take About A Minute Or Two, (If It Says There Is No Root Method Available You Can Still Try To Attempt To Root Which Will Work)
Now You Should Be Rooted
Download And Install Buzybox From The Playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en
TWRP 3.0 RECOVERY (ROOT)
Download "Rashr - Flash Tool" From The Playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools&hl=en
Make Sure You Have "OEM Unlock" Enabled In Developer Options To Boot To TWRP Or You Will Get A Error
Open The Rashr App And Grant Root Permission, And Hit The "TWRP Recovery" Button And Install The Latest Version, Do Not Install The Other Recoveries Because They Do Not Work
When It Installs Hit Yes I Want To Reboot To Recovery And If TWRP Asks To Allow Modidcations, Do So
Boot Up Your Phone To The OS, Now You Are Done!
To Access Recovery, Power Off The Phone And Hold VOL DOWN And Power, Once You See The LG Logo Let Go And immediately hold both of the buttons again until you see a screen which says "Do you want to factory reset" You want to do yes and then it will say do you want to start and do yes again and this will take you straight to TWRP recovery (Note that this will not actually reset the phone)
DEBLOAT (ROOT)
You Can Debloat With In The Kingroot App Which I Would Not Recommend Because When You Remove System Apps In Kingroot It Takes Them To The Recycle Bin And When I Try To Empty Them From The Recycle Bin It Fails. But It Does Remove Them But They Are Still Taking Space On Your Phone, But You Can Restore Those Apps If You Want. Here Are The Instructions To Complety Remove System Apps From Your Phone
Enable USB Debugging In Developer Options
Download And Install Debloater.exe On Your PC: https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=...1203&parId=8576A478A6DBC737!502&action=locate
Connect Your Phone To PC And Open Debloater
Make Sure You Have Root Checked And ADB If It Is Not In Debloater
Now You Can Complety Uninstall Any System Apps Now
After flashing TWRP it asks to reboot into recovery, I hit yes, then it just sits on the LG LIFE IS GOOD POWERED BY ANDROID black startup screen.
Any ideas?
hi! is there any other option aside from using debloater on PC to remove apps? I don't have PC to use. thanks!

[GUIDE] Root SM-J100VPP (Verizon) without ODIN [DEC 2017]

I have found a way to root the Samsung Galaxy J1 (SM-J100VPP, Verizon) without needing to flash modified, rooted firmware using ODIN. I do not know if this unlocks the bootloader. Maybe someone can reply with an answer.
1. Make sure ADB/USB debugging is turned on. Settings > about phone > tap on 'build number' seven times to enable developer options.
2. Tap back button once and tap developer options. Make sure the box next to 'USB Debugging' has a check mark.
3. Plug your phone into your PC and open up an ADB window.
4. Download and install the Hidden Menus APK attached to this post, located at the bottom of the thread. (If using ADB to install, place the APK in your ADB folder and open an ADB command window and type: adb install HiddenMenus.apk)
5. Open the Hidden Menus app and scroll until you see 'Rlz Debug UI' and tap on it.
6. Where it says 'OEM Mode', make sure 'on' is selected (tap the circle next to OEM Mode to turn it on).
7. Go to my Google Drive, download and install 'android_root.exe'. This will install an older version of KingoRoot onto your PC.
8. Open KingoRoot for PC and connect your phone to the PC.
9. At the very bottom, left corner of the KingoRoot for PC window, make sure to UNCHECK the box that says 'install recommended app'.
10. Click on root and let KingoRoot root your phone.
Replace KingoRoot with SuperSU
I don't like one-click-root apps. I don't trust them. So whenever possible, I try to find methods to install SuperSU. Below is a guide to replace KingoRoot with SuperSU. The method in this thread works and only consists of a few steps. First you'll need to go to the KingoRoot homepage and download the APK for Android and install it. Then follow the steps below:
1. Delete/Uninstall Kingouser, but keep Kingoroot. DON'T reboot your device
3. Install SuperSU apk from flashable zip v2.79 (APK provided by me, attached at the bottom of this thread).
4. Launch it, press "continue" and "normal" wait until the update is successful. (You might have to close the SuperSU app and reopen it to complete this step).
5. Reboot and uninstall Kingoroot.
Thanks everyone. I really love this little phone!
ok, so all that has happened here IS. you happened to have a samsung galaxy j1 sm-j100vpp verizon prepaid phone that happened to NEVER be updated to the unpatchable 5.1.1 and you rooted the existing firmware that we all have to downgrade to, to be able to root. And to answer your question about the boot loader.... NO, flashing or MODIFYING the firmware has nothing to do with the boot partition.
BUT. the super su replacement has caught my eye and is how i found this post. I will check the work and report back. this would be a huge step forward in creating a 32 bit custom twrp as the chipset in this phone only supports 32 bit and is why twrp (cwm similar etc....) does not work on this device. i have noticed another samsung device that has "alot" of the same chipsets but still supports 64 bit and has a promising twrp I may be able to compile as a 32 bit only recovery img. after that. its smooth sailing.
