Root [5.1.1]XenonHD For LG Leon C50/H345 on T-Mobile and Walmart Family Mobile

Ok I have received the LG Lean that @babygdav sent me. I have to say I was surprised as it is a brand new device. The seal on the box was still in tack. Thanks again babygdav for sending the device this will definitely allow me to keep working with this device.

I actually got my Leons the same way @babygdav did, I think. My devices were so old (Lumia 521) that when they turned on the new 700mhz towers in my area they sent me a message to get free ones so I wouldn't complain about shoddy service on my non-lte devices!! So, now I've got 3 of them (one for each line). Been waiting on something faster and more stable before I give my wife and father-in-law theirs. Stock was just horrible slow, and coming from Windows Phone, where everything (regardless of CPU speed) just works pretty fast, I didn't want them to get frustrated with the devices!

Thanks @babygdav for helping out with the dev effort!!!

To be honest that is probably something on the playstore cause I have noticed on multiple devices that at random the play store is slow to download from.
APN it only let me select fast.metropcslte.ipv6 or whatever. On other ROMs I usually use just the regular fast.metropsc.com or whatever it is. Is that right? Trying to download speed test now. Only thing I did was change account from 60$ to 30$ to pay it cause I know I can get it prorated in couple days. Its still a lte plan. Also thanks babyg for donating him a phone. It helps us all.

If anyone on T-Mobile is using this ROM, make sure to change the APN settings.
You always wanna use ipv4 instead of 6 unless you've made the proper changes in build.prop to enable ipv6 use.
It never hurts to set the T-Mobile ipv6 settings to ipv4/ipv6. It makes things a lot easier.

Trying to use speed test and it just reboots. I put the battery on powersave and try to adjust the kernal, but it don't stick.
Set to batterysaver, make changes to CPU parameters. Turn off, turn on battery saver. Plug in charge cord and then make changes again to what they were set as before. 900mhz high for me with 200 low.
Now unplug charger. They should stick.

What is the build.prop tweak for IPV6? I ask cause I am not aware of needing any. As far as I am aware it is just a change on the carrier's side and your device has to have the libs to support it

Figured out kinda why data is slowed. It has to do with changing from 60$ plan to 30$ plan. I was to broke to turn phone on unlimited. They have me at 2.5gb/1gb. They dont know the reason, so ill wait a couple days and get it back to 60$ by pro rating it. The crash from speedtest prob is a gps issue. What made me call was I switched to a alcatel fierce 2 and was still slow. Im curious though since the fierce 2 is only 4g it gets dropped to 2g or 3g and the leon is lte, would it be dropped to same speeds or down to 4g? Really dont feel like switching again today.

Edit* bill is due on 2nd and I just had it turned on bout 2hrs ago and only downloaded maybe 50 mb. Other alternative was making a ticket and let them investigate issue, which I dont want that cause my gb can be way high at times lol

persist.telephony.support.ipv6=1
Without that line, my data refuses to connect on ipv6. That's why I recommended using ipv4/ipv6 instead.

I have to disagree as I just checked the build.prop of my LG G Stylo and Leon. Neither one of them have that line in the build.prop and both of them are running stock ROMs and both are using the ipv6 apns.
