Root Lg f60 metro pcs

BL-41A14

 

[dubdiablo77]

Can someone who has F60 (sammyz ^_^?) check the battery model (BL-41A1H)?

It seems like LG F60 and LG Tribute use same battery size (2100mah).
Also their phone size and specs are very similar with minor didferences (CDMA vs GSM, CPU) so... LG Tribute's battery may work on LG F60.

But again this is just my speculation.. I don't have F60 so let's wait for owner's confirmation

I think its the same model.. I know my F60 is BL-41A1H 2020mah..so that's the only difference.. Thanks for finding this..it must be recently posted Cuz when searching..I looked under both device titles

Can you check the battery model to help out a fellow member?

My LG F60 has battery model BL-41A1H 2020mah also. I tried TowelRoot v3 & StumpRoot both did not work. Anyone try vroot? I hope a working root method is available soon.

Another F60 user here, No working root method as for yet, I've tried everything root attempt there is and nothing. A lot of people are requesting the Stump Root devs to add support for the F60/Tribute so hopefully that works out.

Guys, stop trying to root it, if any defects do happen to your device, they will NOT do warranty replacement because when trying ANY root method, the bootloader detects it was tried to be rooted. Boot into download mode (volume up while powering on I think, and you have to pull battery to get out, powering down no longer works) and it will say "ROOTED" in bold red. Thus the manufacture warranty will no longer be covered. There is also NO available firmware to flash yet, LG is blocking it. Need someone with a B2B account.

If a root method bricks you, we have absolutely nothing to fix your phone.

Daaaaamn

Can you boot the device to bootload/fastboot via adb?

Need root to erase a partition to do that.

That is one thing we wonder a lot about do they hate us poking around?

Will a g3. battery fit in our phone or what phone has the same size battery..besides tribute and transpyre?

I would highly doubt that

I was looking at cases and found this on amazon. Looks like these models are all the same size so maybe the batteries are the same also.

i bought one for my mother in law, unfortunately it's a gift so i wrapped and didn't even had chance to play a bit

once i activate and play with it, i will see how it performs,

PS,

My mother in law didn't like it ><
She said she wanted Samsung one... I guess I will use this F60 and buy her new one T.T

Just got the phone and im LOVING IT.

 

[Dhlongfellow]

Me too. It's a great phone. I love having space to use.

I will never understand why LG doesn't understand that

 

[Dhlongfellow]

I know it's ridiculous to make a nice phone with no space. Android creates so much junk files you need way more than 1gb of user space. 4.2gb is nice on the F60. Plus a lot of apps can move to sd card and write data to external.

Tried VRoot and it didnt show up so it doesn't work.

I just want to say that this phone is bloody fantastic! Coming from the Fierce 2(a good phone in its own right), this is an upgrade in just about every way: speed, app performance, camera, smoothness and stability of the user interface, looks(this phone is dare I say...sexy?) and LTE connectivity. Despite the smaller screen size and lower resolution(compared to the Fierce 2's), the 16M color IPS LCD panel looks gorgeous with its vibrant(still natural) colors and excellent viewing angles. The fact that one can get the F60 for 50 bucks(about 68 dollars total) in store is just silly.

It's definitely the best LG android device(have/had Motion 4G, F3, L70) I've had the pleasure of using so far.

I would say that device is a spiritual successor to the phenomenal lg motion

Absolutely! The motion was little beast of a phone and the F60 absolutely carries that same spirit.

Man this is one tough phone to root. I built twrp and booted cm the same day on the Galaxy Light and decided to also grab a f60 and there just isn't any vulnerabilities yet. This is one truly locked device hopefully someone gets it rooted so I can build twrp and cm.
