Help LG Sunset LTE L33L

[marlburrows]

Hi, new to the forum. I was wondering if the lg Sunset is the same phone as the Leon and the Power. And if so, will the roms for the Leon work with the sunset? I'm willing to provide any needed info or files, just need to know what to provide and maybe how to find or dump the files needed. Thanks for any information you can provide.

It looks like it's pretty much the same as the Leon/Power/Tribute 2. The rom(s) available, are only for the Metro PCS Leon. Since they're so similar, you can request Noobified or another developer work on creating TWRP recovery and modify the Rom(check the CM12 thread in the LG Leon forum) to work for your device.

Thanks, will do that.

Thanks, will do that.

Try to flash the recovery, it won't hurt anything besides not being able to receive ota.
I looked at the phone personally, its marked h345 on some of the hardware (just like the metro Leon)
So I have reason to believe it will in fact, work.

Tried putting twrp on here to no avail. All I succeeded in doing was blocking hard reset.
