I have rooted a few phones in my past, however never have I rooted a Motorola. (successfully (moto g i know the mistake I made) However I have a Moto E 2nd Generation (Surnia I think) that I am looking to root and get a ROM for it, here is my problem, I have no Idea where to look or begin my phone info is below if you need more info let me know I really want to root it.
Code:
Model Number: Moto E (2nd Generation) With 4G LTE
Hardware SKU: XT1526
Android Version: 5.1
Baseband Version: M8916_2020604.09.03.21.09R SURNIA_ACG_LTE_CUST
Kernal Version: 3.10.49-ga212254-00001-g39fb6a3 [email protected] #1 Fri May 8 16:40:31 CDT 2015
System Version: 23.11.20.surnia_acg_lte.acglte.en.US ntelos
Build Number: LPI23.29-20
Here is what you need to do (I'm only summarizing to get you started -- this is not meant to be a step-by-step guide -- there are good threads here that cover all of this, and you should read them):
1) Unlock the bootloader -- go to Motorola.com, click on the Developers link and follow the instructions (not all phones' bootloaders are unlockable -- Motorola will let you know)
2) Find the TWRP recovery for the Moto E 2015 floating around here ... either run it with fastboot boot twrp.img (my preference) or flash it onto your phone ... then flash SuperSU ... there is a stable 2.46 version that I used -- it is in .zip form and can be flashed with TWRP. (There is a thread which covers all of this in greater detail.)
3) After that, you can pretty much do what you will, since you are now rooted. Personally, with Motorola phones, I'm happy to just use my root capabilities to remove the bloat, as I am fine with the stock ROM. But I'm sure you can find a custom rom to suit your needs.
There are a lot of details you will learn by reading more of the threads.

This guide is intended to be used for people who want to upgrade their Android experience. This process could be dangerous. Please follow instructions, and if in doubt, stop, and ask here. No one wants their phone bricked*.
"For quite a while you are using your LG G2 mini. You like the simplicity of Android 4.4/5.0.2 and you think LG did a good job on the UI. You live you life happily with the phone. But after a while you feel something is missing. you want more.
You googled "How to make my device awesome again" and you saw difficult terms, such as root, flashing, recovery and bootloader. You didn't know what they meant, but you knew you have to understand these terms and apply them to make your phone awesome again."
The steps to make your phone awesome again are fairly simple:
perform these steps in order from top to bottom. Do not skip any.
--Rooting--
"Yes... I remember seeing this term.. I vaguely remember something related to permissions.. but I am not totally sure what this means."
Root - The root directory of your phone. The home directory for all your important system files.
Rooting - Normally, you don't have access to this directory, since the manufacturer doesn't want you to mess with it. Rooting means you will give yourself access to this directory. Why do you want access to this directory? Because later on we will need access to it to change some files.
Most common question asked is: will this void my warranty? YES
How to Gain Root Access
Android 4.4
There are a few methods to try. If one fails, you will continue until you succeed.
Method 1
1. Go to this link
2. Click on the big lambda in the middle of the page ( ? )
3. Install the app on your phone
4. Run the app and tap on "make it rain"
5. Your phone will reboot
6. Download SuperSU from here. This app is a root access management tool, and it allows you to give certain apps root permissions.
7. The app might ask you to "update binaries". If so, let it update.
Optional: Install this app to make sure you have root access.
Method 2
Go to this link and follow the instructions.
Android 5.0.1
There is only one method for rooting on this version.
Method 1
1. Go to this link and follow the instructions
--Unlock Bootloader--
"Bootloader.... is that a machine that loads boots?"
Bootloader - Code that is executed before any Operating System starts to run. A bootloader is usually locked on an Android device because although it’s an open source OS, still the manufacturers want you to stick to their Android OS version specifically designed for the device. In order to apply this concept, manufacturers lock the bootloader. With a locked bootloader on Android devices, it is virtually impossible to flash a Custom ROM.
Most common question asked is: why do I need to unlock my bootloader? Unlocking the bootloader allows you to install custom Firmware on your Android phone.
How to Unlock the Bootloader
It is advised to be on Android 5.0.2 to unlock bootloader.
Android 4.4
There Is only one specific guide for the d620 / d620r models.

1. Go to this link and follow instructions.
Android 5.0.2
There is a guide for all varients.

1. Go to this link and follow the instructions
--Custom recovery--
"After reading so much I think I need to be recovered myself!"
Recovery - Software that can be used to restore the device to factory default settings, update its operating system, and perform other diagnostic tasks. A custom recovery is a third-party recovery environment. Flashing this recovery environment onto your device replaces the default, stock recovery environment with a third-party, customized recovery environment. A custom recovery environment will do the same things as the stock Android recovery. However, it will also have additional features. Custom recoveries often have the ability to create and restore device backups.
TWRP - Team Work Recovery Project is the most common custom recovery out there. It is highly advised to use it, since other recoveries made for this device are old and unstable.
Most common question asked is: why would I want to use a custom recovery? Custom recoveries allow you to install custom software such as ROMs and kernels.
How to Flash a Custom Recovery
1. If you already have a custom recovery, enter it and flash the new recovery zip.
2. If not, download and install THIS app and flash though it the recovery zip. Then you'll be able to enter the custom recovery.
All Android Versions
There are several versions of TWRP. It is recommended to use the latest version, though using an older version won't hurt.
1. Go to HERE for Twrp 3.0.2.0
2. Go to HERE for TWRP 2.8.7.0
--Custom Rom--
"That was it? It was so easy!"
Rom - stands for “read-only memory.” A custom ROM replaces your device’s Android operating system — normally stored in read-only memory — with a new version of the Android operating system. Custom roms usually have added features not available in stock Android.
Most common question asked is: why would I want to use a custom ROM? Read THIS article.
I'm sorry for any left out roms. A lot are old and not updated or contain bugs. An updated list of them can be found at all time in the "Android Development" section.
How to Flash a Custom Rom
1. Download a custom rom to your sd-card.
2. Enter twrp recovery.
3. Make a backup of system, data, boot and cache.
4. Flash the custom rom.
5. Optional: flash Gapps.
6. Reboot to system.

--Custom Kernel--
"I'm going deeper... so deep, I'm almost at the kernel!"
Kernel - The kernel is the piece of software that bridges the gap between the operating system (and installed apps) and the hardware in the device. Everything you do on your device involves the kernel. Increasing the volume while playing a video? Android doesn’t directly tell the speakers to increase output. Instead, it tells the kernel that it wants to increase the volume, and the kernel talks to the speaker to increase its output.
Most common question asked is: why would I want to use a custom KERNEL? Read THIS article.
How to Flash a Custom Kernel
1. Download a custom kernel to your sd-card.
2. Enter twrp recovery.
3. Make a backup of BOOT
4. Flash the custom kernel
5. Reboot to system.

Please do not quote the whole post.
The LG G2 mini Tegra edition is very different from the other varients. It has a different board and uses other components. Unfortunately, to this day there is no way of unlocking it's bootloader, but even if it could be unlocked, there is no rom development for it. I don't know about rooting it, but from my knowledge, there wasn't ever a serious discussion about rooting it. The main reason is this phone is mostly seen in Latin America, while the rest of the world uses the "normal" version of the phone.

Hi guys, I need some help! I'm stuck with the custom recovery. I'm on d3620r20b, rooting and unlocking bootloader worked fine, even flashing recovery.img using rashr works fine, but if I reboot into recovery mode the phone just gets stuck at the LG logo..Any ideas?what could have gone wrong?

Hi,
I have a LG G2 Mini D620 which is still on KitKat 4.4.2. It never got an OTA update to Lollipop.
It has:
Baseband version: MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c8-00012-M8926DAAAANAZM-1
Build Number: KOT49I.A1404447153
Software version: V10g-EUR-XX
It is rooted.
What I would like to do is upgrade it to at least lollipop. Stock lollipop is fine (custom rom is not a must).
Can you point me in the right direction as to what would be the best way to achieve this?
Regards.
You can find the version you want http://lg-phone-firmware.com/mobile/ and flash it to your phone

XCover Oreo 8.1 ROOT
My XCover 4 updated to Oreo 8.1. I'm so sorry that I didn't stop the upgrades from the stock Nougat ROM.
As far as I read Oreo updated the bootloader to version 2 and it doesn't allow downgrades via Odin back to Nougat. I wanted to flash a Baltic Nougat version of the ROM so that I could run a CF-Auto-Root for the ROM that I found in a tutorial online.
I also tried to get TWRP installed with an xcover4 image from TWRP Builder, but I doubt the bootloader version is the same and my phone doesn't even show up when I run "fastboot devices" when in bootloader mode. It shows up in "adb devices".
My main reason for rooting the phone is so that I can get call recording enabled.
Hi,
I am stuck right at the beginning with the attempt to install LineageOS on my LG G2 mini, because I am not able to get root. My conclusion is that I am failing because my Stock-SW Version seems different from what is captured in this forum mostly.
Device: LG-D620r
Software platform: Android 5.0.2
Software version: V20e-232-03
Build-Number: LRX22G
It's an Austrian, Telering-branded LG G2 mini.
Of course I've tried the path described in here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/root-root-g2-mini-lollipop-t3123652 even trying that attached kingroot.apk, which in the end failed with "no methods found", I guess because of this exotic SW-Version.
Next thing would be to load one of the patched bootloaders here https://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/bootloader-d620-d618-t3127819, but I would not know which version to pick. But without root I can't proceed anyway(?)
Would be nice if anyone of you has ideas on how to achieve this. Maybe I am just missing something obvious?
For my background: I have installed and troubleshooted LineageOS before on an Moto G (thea) which was of course way easier
downgrade to kitkat, everything will be easier. @psycoy
Hey @psycoy, I just did that and along with some other issues it finally worked. So, a late thank you, it was appreciated!
Hi
I have recently acquired a Korean LG-F700S G5 model which I want to root.
However, nothing seems to work.
None of the One-click apps succeed.
I have used the download mode to go from Android 6.0.1 to 8.0 and back to 7.0,
using Uppercut & LGUP (going back to 6.0.1 does not work?)
Fastboot mode is not available, so I can't use TRWP or similar tools to flash a
custom recovery.
Today, I got to know about the CVE-2019-2215 vulnerability which is supposed to work on many Linux kernel versions.
See e.g. github.com/grant-h/qu1ckr00t or googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2019/11/bad-binder-android-in-wild-exploit.html.
Would that vulnerability work on Linux Kernel version 3.18.31 of Android 7.0 currently on my G5?
Has anyone succeeded to exploit the CVE successfully on a Korean LG-F700S phone?
Yes. It does. I flashed Oreo with SLP Aug. 1, 2018 and the su98 exploit found here on XDA.

Well, not really useful on Korean models. Bootloader cannot be unlocked so even temp root seems
pretty useless in the end. Even unwanted carrier apps cannot be deleted, courtesy of DM-verity.
