Planning on buying an unlocked version from best buy: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-g5-4...ed-titan/5199400.p?id=bb5199400&skuId=5199400
Will this sucker be bootloader unlocked like the T-Mobile ones I see in the xda articles? I wish to buy a bootloader unlocked one so I may root it.
It's only carrier unlocked, not bootloader
If it just says "unlocked", that usually means carrier unlocked in 99% of cases.
Also, none of them are bootloader unlocked by default.
There are some models that can be bootloader unlocked (H850 EU, and I think one other model), but they aren't bootloader unlocked when you get them.
From the looks of that page that is the unbranded RS-988 lg g5 unlocked US variant.
And it more than likely will not have obtainable bootloader unlock in near future.
For now the only variant with easily available boot loader unlock and root/twrp, is the unbranded EU H-850
If u were willing to spend that much on the device, just order from clove in the UK great 2 day shipping to the west coast for me. Let me knew if u need link.
T-Mobile h830 has been shown to have root,but I don't believe it its widely available yet.
If u plan to use on gsm network,go with EU H-850
Well, today i see some news about the update for G5 and they say the update for Nougat 7.0 will come in the early November.
From cronology V10 is the second high-end launched before G5 and my hope is we will get the 7.0 until December...what you think XDA user???
Still on rooted 5.1.1. If no root for Nougat (probably not) then I don't care anyway. Just can't get rid of Xposed and its No Safe Volume Warning module.
beavis5706, you have the locked bootloader version sure?! because i have the international H960A and i have root on Marshmallow! and i think LG will be good with users and allow all versions to be unlockable soon!
@sun_is_shinning how did you get root on v10 MM?
@057wds i have the H960A version international...and this version have bootloader unlockable and for sure TWRP and root!! if you have the same version you can search the V10 section of XDA and you will find how to unlock bootloader and how to root it...only if you have Verizon VS990 (i think) or H960A international version!
Sorry for the noob question but I have a retus Moto Z (bought from Amazon) that hasn't gotten 7.0 nougat and is still on the July security update. Wondering if i could flash the reteu Nougat and stay on that upgrade path which generally seems to get updates first.
Yea i'd love to know the answer to this as well. Also, if we go on that new update, will my sim still be unlocked?
Unfortunately, SIM locking isn't something that can be fixed with flashing a new ROM. However, there are plenty of websites that SIM unlock your phone for a small fee.
As the title states, was there ever a way to unlock the bootloader on the 561 variant of the Z2 Tablet? I managed to find one in really good condition on Craigslist for cheap, but now looking on XDA most of the work is for the Unlocked version or European Version. I can root the tablet but in order to get the nice juicy roms the dear devs have worked on I need to have the bootloader unlocked.
I want to buy a Pixel 6, so: which one is the variant that i can root? (G9S9B, GB7N6 or GR1YH). I've heard Verizon variant (i don't know which one is the Verizon one) cannot be rooted.

Hi.
I buy my Pixel(s) from Google.
Global (carrier unlocked) version.
GB7N6 was the P6 version I got.
I am not certain but, I believe..
G9SB9 is the AT&T/Verizon (carrier) locked version.
AT&T version should be able to be carrier unlocked. Not sure about unlocking the bootloader.
The Verizon version can not be unlocked.
GR1YH is the Japan version.
Not sure about carrier/bootloader unlocking.
So I would suggest the GB7N6 version.
Cheers.

You may/can unlock the bootloader of AT&T.
Same as Japan, me with a Japanese Pixel6, you can unlock the phone bootloader.
