Root I'm STOCK MM, wanting to revert back to LP

[ScooterPP]

Hi All!
I have Metropcs Lg G Stylo, I was able to update to MM using LGUp and flashed MS6310b_00_0429.kdz.

So now I’m STOCK 6.0, no root, no twrp. I haven’t been able to figure out how to get root, twrp, plus I’m unhappy with the battery drain of MM.
I used to be well versed in Samsung: rooting and roms and twrp and odin.... on and on! Now I'm in the LG world and none of those older methods really apply here, lol! I'm just nervous about bricking this phone!

Does anyone have clear steps on how to revert back to 5.11? (hopefully without having to use adb ) From there I know that I can root and get twrp.

Thanks so much for any help!
Cathy (Scooter)

Check Unbrick Guide from GT.

You need LG Flash Tool and KDZ file. All necessary files and steps are in that post.

Thank you Bard! Will look at this once I get off work!

There are directions for Rooting the MetroPCS Stylo. It's the same steps as rooting the T-Mobile Stylo/Marshmallow.

But, I can understand you wanting to go back to Lollipop.

Good luck!
