I have the unlocked U.S. Variant RS988.. Why is there zero support for this device.. I see ROMs for the 830 and 850 but not this device or seemingly the vs987? Does anyone know of any custom ROMs for the rs988?

Yes, I have this exact same question, as you can see in my thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/help/request-custom-roms-rs988-unlocked-t3636605
Really again, I do not mean to annoy any developers or users, but it would be AWESOME if we could get even one custom ROM on this device. Fulmics, Lineage, Paranoid Android, Resurrection Remix, Dirty Unicorns, ANYTHING. I would be incredibly happy, and my experience with my phone would also be improved.
Also, a humble question, is it harder to develop for the RS988 because it's newer? Because the 830 and 850 models have TWRP and all, but the RS988 also has an official bootloader unlock method. Again, this is not meant to be an annoyance, simply a question.

I'm along for the ride on this thread. Just purchased an unlocked LG G5 RS988 last night, so definitely interested in any development as well.

Let's start by doing the first thing needed for a custom non stock rom like LineageOS and others. I own H850 but I'm willing to help y'all to start
Thanks man..
I appreciate the heads up on how to get the ball rolling.

Because no one wanted to keep bothering with the aosp roms because lots of broken stuff. (second screen / camera) and only t-mobile version is bootloader unlocked.(for US)
That's my sum up. Others may have more / different input.

I'm interested in this as well. I suspect initial sales number for rs988 was low but with stores like B&H blowing their inventory for $250, I suspect a lot of them are now being sold. Hopefully LineageOS will add support for this model before LG stops updating the phone.
Nothing yet for RS988 as I have been reading

Haven't tested yet, but someone did begin to stage an RS988 port of LineageOS:
https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_lge_rs988
Will build myself when I get a chance... stuck on 10h and no 21a KDZ in sight.
I'd be happy to test... but my PC likely can't handle building tho

Yeah, tried it a couple hours after I posted. I just got my RS988, so catching up.
The LG Bootloader Unlock site was completely dysfunctional with Chrome on Mac, apparently not alone in that. Will try to build LineageOS tonight and try unlocking again with a PC...
I primarily am interested in LineageOS as this is a Cat 12 LTE phone for under $200, and with LineageOS I could retool the device for IoT use... alongside Cat 12 speeds.
Unfortunately it appears LG has shut the door on Brightpoint RS988's. Attempting to unlock the bootloader on LG's web site now displays a specific error, noting that the Brightpoint version of the RS988 is not elegible for bootloader unlock.
Why LG is going to this length, for a small carrier (which I'm all but certain doesn't care one bit about this scenario), is beyond me. But it certainly has soured me to trying again. Probably going to hold out for a Sony XZ1 Compact at this point.
I was able to unlock bootloader from LG . anyluck on lineage for RS988?
I would like to try building Lineage OS for the RS988. I've never built a rom from source though. Can anyone tell me what I would need to do to get started?
Check multiple guides on XDA or on youtube

Be prepared that sadly LineageOS has enormous amount of bugs that might be untrivial to solve like broken NFC & quick charge for most of devices, buggy Bluetooth, crashing apps and such.
+ you need Linux either locally or in VM
Unofficial port is being developed
So there is an unofficial one that I have found works fairly well. Like all first versions there are some bugs of course, but very good first step in my opinion.

Hi All!
Is there a way to get lineage 14.x on le pro 3 Elite (X722)? I've been searching online, but all information seems to be related to X720 model, and there is basically nothing (or very little) regarding the X722... I was hoping to be able to root my device, Install lineage OS, and then un-root (due to using some corporate apps which don't allow devices to be rooted).
Please let me know in case you have some info. I will greatly appreciate your help!
Thanks!
Mick
Hey
As far as i know Leeco didn't released their open source code for x722 and that's why there is no custom roms. I'm a little bit confused because they shared their open source code for many models and i don't know why they didn't do that for x722 :C
tried booting this rom

I didn't tried any rom and at the moment i don't have this phone. I think different processor than in leeco x720/x727 make it useless to use the 720/727 rom for this device and can only lead to brick phone.
So why does TWRP for x720/x727 work flawlessly on x722?
Also lineage OS developer for lepro3 asked if anyone can give him log files from lineage boot on x722 then he can probably make it work. It seems the issue is not CPU (i guess it is same linux kernel and drivers anyway), but somehow changed boot sequence of the x722 then x720/x727, but i don't really understand this stuff.

I don't agree regarding the battery, but an sd slot I definitely miss... the phone itself is good, but it really sucks that we can't put lineage on it. I wish I did proper research before buying it, as I would probably go for a different one.

yea you are right . I saw x626 with 4/64gb on gearbeast for less than 140. But I cancelled the order because there is no ROM support. This model was not released outside of China so it has no google play store originally and no MTK model was made for market outside CN like the 1s thus flashing Indian/Russian or other international ROM is not a possibility.
did anyone update a lineage ROM on the Le Pro x722?

The problem is that the bootloader is locked and there is currently no root for the device... and as it seems like there will never be. one...
It would make this phone so much better if we had the chance to put lineage on it, as LeEco is going under (if not already), and there will be no future updates to the software, even though there are so many bugs... such as you can't change default browser, expand notifications, and so on....

yes, and the camera not auto-focusing when changing from a far to a closer focus or the contrary and you have to be tapping on the screen every time
so in the end maybe the lineage 14 for the x720 and x727 might work fine but the point is that the x722 has a locked door about bootloader and can't open and enter to work on it?

If you have American single sim model then you have to unlock bootloader first then try. I heard most roms are compatible but I am not sure about NFC status.

I will also be able to help once my phone arrives. Wondering what firmware i'll get it with (from BangGood).
When I scanned xda I saw official lineage for x72x so i assumed it was supported - the title is a bit misleading. Probably wouldn't have ordered it if I read the whole thread.
That said, I'm in it for the long haul now, and might actually be a good opportunity for me to actually give something back to the xda community (besides $).
Too many wrong infos in this topic.
- Bootloader is locked ONLY in 026s stock rom and it CAN be unlocked by flashing 001d dev release.
- You DON'T flash x720 roms to x722 since you will easily get a nice brick.
- You DON'T flash stock 026s through TWRP (especially from geekbuying vendor 020s rom with twrp)
- x722 has root in tora33 custom rom - this is a fresh stuff so check that thoroughly

Do you have a link for this ROM?
I've been thinking about the myriad of "old" gadgets that are alive thanks to the variety of ROMs available these days.
But a fact that intrigues me is why this device has very few ROMs available ... it really is something that draws the attention precisely because it has a good potential to receive them.
I have been around the G2 Mini forums since, pretty much, when the device was released. If you have a look at the oldest posts, some of them are mine.
In that time, I have seen many devs, at first trying to unlock the bootloader of the device, with Zaaap finally succeeding, by figuring out how the Russians at 4pda hacked the bootloader of the L90, and then he, and others, made some ROMs.
Since then, the only ROM dev that seems to still be working on our device is @mobiusm . Other that him, I still work on my kernel, with the help of @likeadracula . (However, he is very busy and I don't have any features to add, so there is little work done lately)
I don't know why there aren't any other devs, although, I believe it's because of the initial price (250-300 €) so no dev got it, and, even when the price dropped, it was already "old".
So, yeah, that's what I think.
P.S.: This is not a development thread, but a discussion. It belongs in G2 Mini General.
EDIT: Thread moved by mod.
For me, one developer who works on ROMs and one on Kernels, seems like a lot for a nearly 4 year old, non flagship device.
Also, having the newest Recovery & newest ROM which are worked out properly + a neat kernel with all the features you desire should not be taken for granted.
I am very grateful for all the development that has been done and will be done and I wouldn't know why I should get a new phone, 'cause this one works just fine, at least for me.
My surprise in relation to this fact is related that this device does not differ in anything from the L90 in terms of hardware, and the boot unblocking is the same, same procedures, so it is common to see roms for L90 and not for the G2m. This is something I'm surprised about. Obviously I am happy that there is still developer for this device, particularly the rom of my preference that is the LOS, did not abandon it, so 2..3 or more roms for it does not make as much difference since I just like to use the LOS on my devices, for the stability, performance and commitment of the team to all supported devices, however, is my view, other people have divergent thoughts.

Actually, precisely because of the similar hardware, it's very easy for the L90 ROMs to be ported to the G2M.
One the devs that have made ROMs for the g2m recently told me that he is using the L90 for initial testing and then uses the blobs for the g2m to make it work. (I don't actually know, but I think that the only problem with the L90 blobs is the camera or the WiFi, if anything)
In fact, it's so easy that anyone, with the most basic knowledge of Linux, can get it to work. I think. I haven't actually tried.
So, find a ROM of the L90 that you like and give it a shot. Just follow an online tutorial and you should be able to port it.
If you need any help, just let me know. Or anyone on the forum (though, some, myself included, are busy)

Nope. Only soft brick (a.k.a. bootloop)

Hey folks,
I've got a relatively simple question about the V30. I've got an AT&T LG V30 which I used the frankenstein method to unlock the bootloader and convert to US998.
What I'm trying to understand is whether or not any of the LineageOS ROMs, or the 9.0 ROM, will work on the AT&T converted V30. My takeaway thus far is that they will NOT work on my device, and my attempts to flash the ROMs echo this, but I'm looking for a more definitive answer.
Am I dumb and just "doing it wrong", or is the 931 converted to 998 unable to run these ROMs?
Cheers!

I've been looking, however I wasn't able to find if that was for all ROMs, some ROMs, maybe it works now and not at the time the reply was made, etc. It'd be cool if ROMs had a callout on the top post (as it gets updated when there are new releases) saying "INCOMPATIBLE WITH" or something along those lines. Just a thought.

Q. Which Models are supported?
A. So far it works well on the H930(G/DS), US998, VS996 and LS998 (use H930 zip). Other models may have broken RIL or bootloop. People with a H932, please use that zip.

And think "oh, I now have a US998 since I converted my 931, so this ROM should work for me."
Most of my lack of making since of this probably stems from the fact that I swear XDA used to have a set of forums for each carriers version of the device, but in the case of the V30, all carrier releases are clumped together under one section.
Thanks for your help! I'll look specifically for 931 in the device list and remember that even though I converted to a US998 via frankenstein, it's not actually a 998.

Yes, previously that was the norm -- even completely separate forums for each carrier, but then most users just focused on THEIR variant/their carrier and missed compatible developments that other variants of the same phone had. "Unified" development is better. TWRP/ROMS for all where possible.*
In this case, if you had a separate H931 or H933 forum, right now there would be no custom ROMs available. All you would have is stock-based ROMs like Boombox. It's also entirely possible we wouldn't have even figured out (together) that someone could flash to US998 in the first place to get bootloader unlock and root. It still might be only original US998 and H930 which have bootloader unlock and root with bootloader unlock codes doled out by LG.
But due to the one forum, and shared development that's how [b @TxanMoe accidentally discovered WTF bootloader unlock while using Frankenstein.[/B] @runningnak3d helped him recover his phone when he ill-advisedly tried to flash his H931 to European H930 after first converting to US998 and running some old Huawei bootloader unlock code he found in an LG G4 forum Yeah, he bricked his phone and we all smirked because he was doing stuff that seemed crazy. But after his phone was recovered, his bootloader was indeed unlocked. That became the foundation of WTF bootloader unlock and root. Without a unified forum, I'm not sure enough people would have paid attention. @TxanMoe would have just bricked his phone and that would have been the end of it; he would have moved onto another phone and we would not have realized the wonderful discovery of the LG bootloader unlock exploit.
There are devs working on the problem of H931 and H933 on AOSP ROMs.
________
* In the Moto Quark forums (Droid Turbo/Moto Maxx/Moto Turbo -- all the same model phone, just different names for some strange reason) the CM dev at the time make sure his stock CM Quark kernel (the foundation of all custom ROMs) was compatible with Droid Turbo when it finally got bootloader unlock a YEAR after all the others. Thus all those variants could run the SAME CM/Lineage-based ROMs and have the same TWRP. The dev that succeeded him @BHB27 kept up that tradition.
It started out as one forum, but then the Droid Turbo owners complained because their bootloader was not unlocked and they were tired of seeing all the "development" the other phone were getting. So, the forums were split almost a year after release, and ONE MONTH LATER the Droid Turbo bootloader was unlocked and suddenly they WANTED all that development back! That's where I saw it was a mistake to split forums. It's better to keep them all together so they can share development.
In the same vein, the V30S should NOT have a separate forum. That was an XDA mistake. It's a V30 Joan, just like all other V30 and all V30S should be here. This is where the V30S ROMs are, this is where the V30S TWRP (Joan) is, this is where the WTF bootloader unlock and root is. They should merge the V30S forum with this one and use that space for something else...
