No mate, there is no possibility to unlock bootloader for this model so far. It is a shame, because this is a very good model in my opinion.

Hi dudes,
I sent an email to Sony Support France and asked them about bootloader. I have a Sony Xperia Z2 from SFR carrier ( FRANCE ) and I was wondering if they could unlock my bootloader if I sim unlock it. I mean without simlock my phone should be the same as a phone purchased in a Sony store.
I'm still waiting for an answer, keep you in touch. :good:
Regards
Is this a question?
Why would you post this in Q & A?
It can be a question, maybe someone already tried that ?
Ok guys,
I got an answer, it was NO. They basically said they that I need to deal with my carrier for this kind of problems...
I still have a question for you, If an exploit is found is it only for root or will we able to unlock unlockable bootloaders ?

If the exploit is found, then you can flash a ROOTED ROM on a locked bootloader like the Z1. I for one like the stock sony experience i just wish i could put a sound MOD on the Z2 and for that i need root but, my phone is locked.....
Oh ok, so if an exploit is found, people with locked bootloader will not be able to flash kernel like the one from DoomLord for exemple ?
Hi all..anyone knows if there an easy way to root my branded EE g5 ? Cz till now cant find one ..
Thanks ..
if you can unlock bootloader then the easy way is to install root from TWRP
I know..but am afraid of bricking it..am asking if any one tried to root the branded g5!!?
And i dont know if the boot loader is unlockable or not?!

Go to the LG developer website and find out. If it is an EU H850, there you will find your answer.
So the device is released.
And do u think the trend of bootloader unlock will follow as for any flagship lg phone or maybe different.
Any bootloader ,future development and security ..
Lg g3 - no bl unlock / only bump hack
Lg g flex 2 - no bl unlock on any variant
Lg g4 - only european variant of global model
Lg v10 - only european variant
Lg g5 - only european variant
Lg v20 - with france model as exception / dirtysanta exploit on all single sim variant
Lg g6 - ...
And oh yea ! T-mobile provides bootloader option support.
T-Mobile has had all their LG's unlockable.

Only way I'd get the LG G6, is if the T-Mobile version bootloader is unlocked, and it gets CM14.1. What are the chances of that ?

High, me and some other people that made Cm possible for the g5 are already working on it.

i feel i hope they still find an exploit to unlock the at&t model.
Hi everybody,
for a newcomer here: I understand there is not and will not be a chance of unlocking the bootloader and then rooting the G6 unless LG officially makes the device unlockable? Am I really very far from the actual
What are the chances of that?
I read somewhere (don't know where at this point after going over a bunch of threads) that most G5 models have never been unlocked...
Thanks!

No one is working on an unofficial way to unlock the bootloader or bypass the locked one, AFAIK, so yes, we have to wait LG to add the G6 to the official bootloader unlock program, mind that usually only the european international model will support this method.
On G5 there are three models with a bit of modding: European H850 (Official bootloader unlock), T-Mobile H830 (Tot Exploit) and US Unlocked RS988 (Official Bootloader Unlock), also the G5 SE has is present in that program but there is no TWRP ATM.
If you have an European H870 then just wait for LG, if not and if you need root then there is no ETA and no information about a possibility to obtain root.

Alright!
Thanks a lot for the reply. Seems I was understanding more or less ok the situation, although as for now I lack most of the technical knowledge.
I own a H870 so well, looks like we just need to hope and wait
Seeing how stuff is with LG's not unlocking its devices and all I was actually pondering wether to return it or not... Got 3 days left for full refund. Love the phone but not ever rooting is a bit of a sad perspective...
I'll keep an eye on things.

What's the reasoning behind this?
Is it akin to LG's absurd decisions regarding which region gets what hardware / features?
This doesn't sit well with me, I'm used to an OEM fully supporting open development... I've had a Sony Xperia Z2 for the past 3 years and both the phone and the XDA community have been awesome.

Just look to the G5 and G4, it's all based on that.
-edit-
My fault, didn't understand well xD
Well LG is not new to this strange and stupid decision, like not selling the V20 in Europe ecc...
Wow man, quickest quote / reply I've ever had lol.
Yep, I've been reading through the V20 forum as well as here, more than 6 months after release and there's still very little development on the V20.
I think coming from Sony to LG is gonna be an eye-opener for me.

Indeed they do. But, now they strip out all the fastboot commands, which is what makes twrp & root so difficult. Same on the g5.
I personally, would like to think based on LG's previous Bootloader Unlocking... That it will hopefully only be a matter of time for the G6 to be officially Unlocked.
It is something that I personally can wait for..
But it does ask the question?... Who or what/how are the bootloader decisions made @ LG as to what handsets are given the full LG Bootloader unlocking?
I hope so, but the g5 and v20, which are close to the same in this respect, haven't been cracked since a december pacth that blocked "recowvery". There are ways to keep root from previous versions, but we have no previous version.
Edit.. EU/International variant I was talking about.
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.
