Question About Warranty - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Hi I bought lg g5 in Israel. I want to flash the latest v20 nougat open eu. It will void my warranty( after I will install stock Israeli Rom in case that I need the warranty )

אחי פשוט חכה טיפה, השבוע אמור לצאת העדכון עבור הh860.
לא שווה להרוס את האחריות

Its suppose to but in realty they don't make fuss about it in my experience, best to flash it with original stock when you send it back if you can though

That's completely NOT how this works. You flash this and you'll likely brick your phone.

So only a T-Mobile ROM is compatible with the H830? International ROM won't work?
I suppose as long as the KDZ is a GSM not CDMA,. I tried it already on HTC M9 jumped from T-Mobile RUU to At&t and then to international RUU with no bricking.

You have to be particularly careful with LG phones (and in general). There may be some other models and manufacturers where this could work.
But I think this is rarely the way to obtain sim unlock.
A lot of the times the phones are not identical between regions and flashing a different firmware will totally destroy the phone.
LG in particular doesn't even like you flashing an older firmware onto the phone and instituted an anti-rollback mechanism on some US model phones, where even flashing the correct model's older version would result in a total brick. Yes, you could actually brick your phone by flashing a kdz file, meant for your phone, on LG flashing software, that was just the version prior.

So, in general. We have to wait to unlock the bootloader, root, TWERP and flash custom ROMS into the LG G5 instead of trying to flash a stock KDZ?
These manufacturers are making it harder and harder, we are somehow loosing the flexibility that made us choose Android over IOS.

100% clean stock rom install, is it possible?

Hi, I just bought this phone (H960A), but unfortunately seller told me that he bought it with a contract from one of Polish mobile operator. It will be probably bloated with many their apps, and there will be no marshmallow update for a long time.
Is it possible to flash 100% stock rom? I want get update directly from LG.
And btw, is there any way to obtain a root in marshmallow? I read a plenty of threads and I didn't find any answer.

I think the MM OTA update is already available for your V10 variant.

But I'm talking about branded roms. Because of this, my father for example got the lollipop update for note 3 in the end of 2015...

It doesn't matter if it's branded or not. There is a MM update available for euro version of H960A. Just install LG drivers and LG Bridge, plug in the phone to your pc and update via LG Bridge. If, for some reason, you don't get the update like that than go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/official-software-h960a-v20a-t3354304. Download the kdz file and install with LGUP.

Is there a way to rebrand the Korean V300K to the European H930DS?

Hi,
I recently got the V30+ for a really cheap price but I got the Korean KT version. So my question is if it's possible to rebrand it to the open European version?
Thanks for your answers.

The word you are looking for is not re-brand but convert. You want to convert it to H930.
You could do it with custom LGUP file -- convert one V30 variant to another -- but you would lose cellular connectivity and would at most only have Wi-Fi. There are people who do this for development reasons, convert one variant to another, but it's only on temporary basis while they do what's needed -- then they flash it back. With the V20 one dev created a method to flash to another variant firmware that wasn't patched yet for Dirty Santa. They were able to convert AT&T V20 to another V20 model, unlock bootloader, install TWRP -- then use that TWRP to flash back to TWRP-flashable zipped AT&T firmware, and still retain unlocked bootloader and TWRP custom recovery.
During that time the AT&T V20 was "temporarily" recognized as another V20, their SIM card didn't work, they had no cellular connectivity -- but they still had Wi-Fi and could sideload stuff.
This is actually a method being considered to root the T-mobile H932 V30:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75196964&postcount=296
But it won't help you, because it's only meant to be a temporary stage. You would lose important functionality.

Lg g5 H820 upgrade - Nougat to Oreo or install custom ROM?

Lg g5 H820
I want/need to upgrade the phone from Nougat to anything more modern.
I'd prefer upgrading to Oreo (8.x) or a good custom ROM.
PROBLEM: I cannot find any legit Oreo firmware that says it works on the G5 and I've also read that the phone cannot be rooted, so a custom ROM may not be able to be installed.
What say you?
Thanks
