Root Lg f60 metro pcs

Is this "plain vanilla" stock?

Yes, it's really close to the stock image via Flashable Zip Method. But not 100% plain vanilla like.

It's rooted, busybox installed, deodexed, zipaligned so others (including myself) can use this ROM as base.

So, no attempt yet to remove "bloatware", etc.?

Debloating is for my next rom which is i am already working on. It will have debloated, 3rd party launcher and few other tweaks.

Base rom is just there in case i need to bring some stock apps or i need to go back to stock in case flash fails.
 
Hey all. I recentle used King root to root my LGMS395 (MetroPCS) and it worked . I then found a link on YouTube (credit to Manny Akintunde) showing how to install TWRP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=21778 ,and CM 12.
,I followed the instructuions step by step and now my phone is running on Lollipop 5.0.2.! Hope this helps anyone who needs it. It definantly helped me.

Is there an active developer for this phone? I would seriously pay one and help in anyway I can so that we as a community can get a CM11/Stock AOSP 4.4.4 ROM. This phone has potential and is really great with root +Xposed. I've managed to get as much juice out of it through some root apps and Xposed but yet it feels slow due to LG's UI. I'm sure a Kitkat ROM would also do better on this phone rather than a 5.x.x ROM ;)

ROM Tool Box is all-in-one tool for rooted users but none of its functions will grant you faster internet or faster phone.

The best thing you can do is delete out unused apps to free phone space and back ground running apps. But the impact is very minimal and you won't notice any difference.
 
The V20a kernel? That must've been such a pain in the ***.
Actually it was quite simple , I was trying too hard at first . I compiled it with full cm build and it works perfect. I will release a test build sometime next week. I need to downgrade wifi driver and camera drivers to kk. Fixed camera as well

edit: May as well share new TWRP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347774564
