Hey guys,
So my LG G3 finally took a dump on me and I decided I'm done spending 600+ dollars USD on cell phones , so I picked up this Allura for around 120$.
There doesn't seem to really be any information about the device online, or even any reviews. I've been trying to root it on my own but am having no luck.
None of the "one-click-roots" work that I tried (surprise surprise). ADB doesn't run as root. For some reason ADB only works while the phone is on, and not in recovery, for the most part... I've installed the USB drivers that you can find on the phone under the CD USB option, I've tried universal Android USB drivers, I've tried updating my Intel USB drivers, but still nothing. ADB will not work while in recovery. The phone goes --start adb-- and then nothing, it just sits there. I AM able to use ADB when I hit "apply update from ADB" so I can kind of get ADB to work in recovery, just not where it says --start adb--, that still doesn't work even after I come out of the adb update menu. I tried to load a few things through sideloading but they all fail because of failing signature verifications.
Anyway, I can get it into recovery but I can't get into the bootloader, and the "allow oem unlock" option doesn't seem to really do much from what I can tell, since I can't even get into fastboot. This seems like a pretty solid device and I like the specs/aesthetics, but I would really love it rooted. I've never really done much with android before so please excuse any terms I may have used incorrectly.
Of course I will be more than happy to try any suggestions/answer any questions I can about the device. I would post a pic of the recovery screen but I need to boost my post count first..
