What didnt work
I have tried EVERY suggestion on this site to root my tribute2 (boost). None of them have worked. The ph still works fine just not rooted.
Surely there is a way to root this dang phone.
The post b4 yours with two links to XDA 2nd one for 6th_Hokage's thread on rooting the stylo.... Thats back from 2015, lp 5.1.1, surely that would brick marshmellow! Posts like that are 2 confusing....

Ive tried KingRoot, KingoRoot, iRoot, etc ... most one click roots, and none have worked on my LG LS665 smartphone...ymmv...kingroot
...so whats the secret code with KingRoot???Hi all!
I didnt want to start a new post so I thought I would ask here. Hope thats ok.
So I rooted my VM LG Tribute 2 last night using KingRoot. All is working just fine.
I have rooted 2 phones in the past, but I never backed up any files at all. I just went all willy-nilly and uninstalled the bloatware I didnt want. Well, with this phone I would like a backup just in case.
Forgive my ignorance, but what app would I use for this? Back in the day, Titanium Backup was popular. Not sure how it is today. I wont be installing a custom rom or anything, just mostly deleting bloatware.
So, my questions are:
1. What app should I use to back up files that I delete, just in case I should ever revert back from root?
2. Do I really need SuperSu, or is the one from Kingroot ok to use?
3. Is there anything else I should need for my basic root?
Kind of a root newb so apologies for that.
Thanks for any help!![]()
