    Root Choosing TWRP Version

    I have an LG Optimus F3 LS720 from FreedomPop, which came with TWRP 2.8.0.0 installed. Can I use any later versions of TWRP? If so, which would be the best choice?

    It's Been Fun

    Hey, folks. My formerly-trusty F3 gave up the ghost recently after acting up for a short while. Best Buy had a clearance deal on the Moto G 3rd gen ($50) so I bailed on LG as well. I'll still be on the forum, but not really in here. ;) Best of luck to you all.
