if you can unlock bootloader then the easy way is to install root from TWRP

Go to the LG developer website and find out. If it is an EU H850, there you will find your answer.

I'm looking into buying the ZTE Blade G Lux and I read somewhere here that all ZTE phones come with an unlocked bootloader, is this true?
If not, does anyone know a legitimate process to unlock the bootloader for this phone?
Thanks.

I don't think all ZTE phones have unlocked bootloaders though I have never used one or really saw much interest into them myself. I don't think theres really any "legitimate" ways to unlock a ZTE Blade G lux bootloader though, but you can try unlocking the bootloader with bootloader unlocking tools such as the one in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...l/tool-master-tool-unlock-bootloader-t2997696
It tells you all the steps you have to follow and if it doesn't work you can always try ask the OP to port (make) a tool for your phone

This seems you have TEST/DEMO (H850 Model) Set that is not allowed to unlock bootloader.
ONLY H850 with valied IMEI pasted on the back of mobile canbe unlocked.
But the cell phone is working perfectly fine..also support sim card.. And in setting..its written lg h850

YES it will work perfectly fine as this is fully functional mobile but just for demonstration or demo use.
PURPOSE: Demo on Display, Company owned demo sets for promotion

LG has released the H850 for different geographical regions. The bootloader is only unlockable on the European version of the H850, and it's possible that your H850 is from one of the blacklisted regions. You can get some information by looking at the software version in "About Phone" in Settings. You're looking for something like "V10i-EUR-XX."
Now question is how can i unlock boot loader ? If i have different 850 model..so it means i cannot unlock boot loader by any means ? And cant instal any custom rom ever ?

Autoprime has published the definitive thread on unlocking the H850 bootloader here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/official-european-lg-g5-h850-bootloader-t3363040
You may still be able to root you phone with instructions found here:

Good luck!
Ok, one last desperate kick at the cat. If anyone knows of a root for my G5, speak loudly please! It's a H831, presumably only available in Canada. And for what it's worth, my carrier is Rogers and I'm running Android N 7.0. Solve it, come to town, and I'll buy you beers all night long until the ambulance shows up
Sign the petition to release LG G5 Canadian bootloader
Hi there's a petition to release LG G5 Canadian bootloader on Change.org (Unlock the bootloader for h831, Canadian LG G5) Just sign it and spread the word..
That unlockable bootloader is everything....
It'd be really great if people could do even some cursory searches.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/info-autos-g5-thread-t3350648
OMFG!! i thought there was a breakthrough!!
stupid title!!
I don't believe this will ever happen
So confused
Ok...... so as we know now... i think (still kind of confused)
There is no bootloader unlock method available for the H831 because even though us canadians give everyone maple syrup and dont start wars,
nobody gives a **** about us..
That being said.... Am I able to unlock the bootloader by flashing a stock rom from a carrier that does allow bootloader to be unlocked, then follow instructions to unlock the bootloader under that stock firmware?
am I missing something?
so to reiterate...
Can I flash my LG-H831 with LG-H850 stock ROM,
then use the method for unlocking bootloader for LG-H850 to get my bootloader unlocked?
I really dont feel like trying to flash TWRP without my bootloader being unlocked because I do NOT have the money to get a new G5 if I brick it...

Sorry buddy, this won't work.
The H831 bootloader is locked, hence it will only run H831 firmware. The moment it sees something different, it will brick.
**** LG
And **** ANY piece of **** corporation that sells ****ing worthless GARBAGE WITH LOCKED ****ING BOOTLOADERS!!!
Extremely near-sighted profit-making scam that negatively affects the entire ****ing world for years if not decades. If you think, wtf do they even gain after the few months that their all-new "apps" and "services" are obsolete??

Have a H831 here, mistakenly sold on ebay as a H850 :/
3 years later ! I'd really wish I could do something with this phone, but it looks like it will go to trash
never again i buy a phone from a carrier.
now its unlock from the start or nothing.
hello,
I received today my new lg v30 + H930DS and I would like to know how to unlock the bootloader install TWRP ... because I find solutions for the H930G version but nothing for the H930DS
Sorry, it's not on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.
http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryId=CTULRS0703
Either needs to be on the official LG unlock list or someone needs to find a bootloader unlock exploit.

not yet mate.. we're on the same boat here :laugh:
just wait patiently and hope for the best :fingers-crossed:
it is most likely never possible to unlock the bootloader of H930DS ? and it will never be on the LG list as suitable for unlocking the bootloader.
Why will LG do so? for a market is possible , and for others not?

Yes. There are variants that will never be possible. At least that has happened with the G6.
I did not buy the DualSim just for not having root... and I use 2 numbers :'(
Fellow Aussie here,
Same here peeps. Nothing yet. Sent an email off to LG in Australia, as well as LG Devs asking why it's not on the list. HOPEFULLY I'll get a response soon.
Hi I have LG G5-H850
And I want make a root the website LG Developer say I can't take the unlock from them..
Someone know another solution?
