Why did you post this here?
Someone offered me an E970 bought from AT&T and he says it is unlocked.
Does it mean someone unlocked it ? it is permanently unlocked then ? or do I need to obtain some PIN to unlock it
again when a software update is done ?

If its unlocked it can work with any GSM network provider no need to obtain PIN to unlock it. It will stay unlocked even after updating.
And you want to clarify whether he is referring to carrier unlocked or bootloader unlocked. Big difference.

Dear all,
I found a Unlock Bootloader on LG V10 tutorial, has anyone try this to Unlock Bootloader on F600K/L/S Variants?

Thanks!
Did you even look in this subforum? There are probably four or five threads on the bootloader unlock. It only works on the T-Mobile H901 variant because it has an unlocked bootloader. It will not work on any other variant (the int'l unlocked variant that hasn't been released yet may support it, but we won't know for awhile). I hate to sound mean, but there are plenty of threads covering this topic.

Tried, and no cant boot to bootloader or fastboot.
Only other function I have been able to access is download mode.
Did you follow the instructions here on xda? That works,of course depending on where you purchased phone. Verizon isn't working.

Hi I recently bought a new G5 H830 (TMO version) off eBay, accidentally I let it upgrade the software and so now it is H830 20n. (I believe it came with 20m).
I searched and found most posts say this version cannot be rolled back and root.
Is this version still rootable?
Many thanks,
You should try to unlock the bootloader with the official LG method, and if you can unlock the bootloader and then install TWRP, you can also root the phone with SuperSU or Magisk.
T-Mobile H830 should be supported, but you have to check if LG allows bootloader unlocking for your specific IMEI.

Not all the H830 have the same possibility to be unlocked. On earlier versions of the bootloader "fastboot oem unlock" was enough, for newer versions, depending on the market (Asia, Europe, phones for exposition in the stores) LG allows or not the unlocking. Have you already tried the official method with your IMEI?

How did you unlock your phone? I just bought a H830 with Android 8 installed and I am struggling to unlock it...
Anyone aware of an exploit or known good method to sim unlock my AT&T V30 H931?

Yes. You Frankenstein to carrier unlocked firmware, like US998. There are several North America carrier unlocked variants you can convert to, but US998 also has the necessary fastboot flash commands if you ever want to bootloader unlock and root.
SEE Frankenstein thread.
