Hey, folks!
I'm at the end of my provider contract and they offer me a new contract including a LG G5 SE. On several websites I read that its not possible to root it, which is necessary.
Can someone confirm that?
Greetings and Thanks!

Also the us unlocked version RS988 is now officially unlockable and has TWRP and root but no current ROM development.
So h850 EU open market, t mobile h830 and us unlocked rs988 are only unlocked and rootable g5s for now.

Now that LG has released official bootloader unlock to Europe, do you think there will be any chance for North American V-10 unlock? I am guessing no. but I am happy for those across the pond.

Hey, I'm just wondering if anyone has a root method for the Verizon LG V10 running software version VS99023A on 6.0? Or is there any way to downgrade to 11B being that there seems to be a root method for those on 11B? Thanks.
There isn't root available an it's not possible to downgrade.

Well in that case. Is there an update for this model to Android 7.0? I no longer receive OTA updates.

Go to root section of this site for LG G5. Go to autoprime page lgup and kdz page. Read directions and ask questions on that page.

Ya, I don't believe that for a second. Never heard of that website and there are bigger sites like androidauthority.com and androidpolice.com that would've reported this. Until I see it on there I highly doubt this is true.

I really hope you are right. It would not make sense for this relatively new phone not to get it.
Man chill out, those are fake news. It is 100% sure that our V10 will get nougat update. You just have to wait after G6 goes to sale.
I have had lg phones for awhile but the V10 will be my last lg product. The lg g3 an LG G2 were both very good down hill from there although I love the V10 it just isn't supported by devs or lg.

Don't they use CB radios to chat in the South?
"When asked by an XDA member regarding the availability of the OS for the 2015 flagships, the rep said that there won’t be a Nougat release for these phones in South Korea."
I'm pretty sure all of us here outside of South Korea are safe and will get the update in due time.
Hope

Was really hoping for the V10 to be updated to nougat
I just saw a post on Reddit that was as legit and as clear as possible that yes 7.0 is coming to the V10.

Hello, i have an s6 edge which have become laggy and the battery drains so fast. I wanna get a new phone with my money but my parents don't want me to spend my own money. If i bootloop it on purpose they will see that it does not longer work and they will let me get a new phone. But i do wanna keep it as a second device. So, how can i bootloop it but have a fixable bootloop?
Root phone first.unlock bootloader in dev settings then install a suitable twrp for your phone.link your phone to your PC to be recognized,install proper drivers for that in PC.then enter in twrp.format phone and install a non suitable (for other phones)custom rom.then you press power after flashing wrong Rom and you will have a wonderful bootloop.be prepared to have a custom Rom that really works for your phone for flashing properly after all this scam..good luck.(enter in your XDA section for your device).hope will work this way

You sure you won't be forced to trade it in to get the new phone?

OK. That's why my sister wouldn't get a new phone, because for the subsidized price the carrier made her trade in her old phone.
