Dear all,
I found a Unlock Bootloader on LG V10 tutorial, has anyone try this to Unlock Bootloader on F600K/L/S Variants?
http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-on-lg-v10/
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.

Hello. I'm wondering if anyone's managed to unlock the bootloader on a Sony Xperia S / Firmware ICS 6.1.A.0.453 where in the service settings it says bootloader unlock not allowed on a locked phone? I've seen lots of guides on doing this with a phone with GB and early versions of ICS but no guides with the above firmware? Many thanks in advance.

You can't unlock bootloader if it's locked to carrier. Not even on a gb.
Ok Many thanks for that. So if I get the phone unlocked in the normal way from my carrier - will that also give me the option to unlock the bootloader as well? Many thanks again.

I think that it depends of your carrier.
Ok - many thanks again!
Ok my phone is now sim unlocked but its still bootloader locked and my carrier O2 do not support the unlocking of the bootloader. Is there any unofficial method I can use (even paid) to unlock the bootloader?
Yeah the O2 are the worst by that question,definitely.But try to make a pressure on them saying if it is not stated in the cobtract than they can **** themselves and unlock or you want your money back!

I should have look into this a bit more before I got the phone. With any luck someone hill hack it soon!
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.

Have a carrier unassigned H932. I've managed to unlock the bootloader, but I'm not sure if the TWRP recovery used for other variants will work. Anyone have any idea as to whether it will work?

Ha! You mean a T-Mobile H932? If you can get TWRP to install that is indeed the correct version for all the V30 variants.
How do you plan to install it? You have no fastboot flash commands.
Ease-up. I made a mistake. If it's true than I guess I'm SOL. Thanks for your feedback...

All V30/V30+/V30S variants in the world can be bootloader unlocked and rooted -- except for T-Mobile H932.
Sorry for jumping, it's just there is a prominent 144 page thread on how the H932 can NOT be rooted (yet), and you opened a new thread about rooting it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/progress-root-twrp-roms-achieved-t3690577/page144
I hope TWRP can be installed someday and it can be rooted.
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...
hey all does anyone know if verizon pixel phone is unlockable? and will it work on Tmobile? thanks.
Please use the Search function to see if your question has been answered before creating a new post.
Carrier variant bootloaders are not unlockable.
LOL, no.
No. Carrier models are not bootloader unlockable. If you want an unlockable bootloader don't get a carrier model.
Both of you are partially incorrect, the VERIZON Variant is indeed permanently bootloader locked, however, the AT&T, T-Mobile and other carrier models can be bootloader unlocked after SIM unlock.
