Can I play SW with the Korean version of V300L on the European version of the H930 using LGUP and KDZ?
Do you need to unlock the bootloader?
Thank you...
EDIT: no.

possibly, if you have a custom version of the LGUP.exe.
On the LG V20, they did it BEFORE unlocking the bootloader so they could flash a KDZ for another LG V20 variant that allowed unlocking the bootloader with Dirty Santa. YES, I know Dirty Santa has been patched and does not apply to this phone. My point is they flashed a KDZ for ANOTHER LG V20 variant, using custom LGUP.exe-- BEFORE the bootloader was unlocked.

hello,
i have the middle east variant of the lg g5 h850 (from israel) and i was wondering if it is possible to root my device.
all the root guides i found specify the european h850 model and i want to know if there are any substantials differences between the two h850 that will prevent me from rooting.
my software version is V20b-ISR-XX (Nougat 7.0)
You can't root because your version has locked bootloader and without it you cann't get root.
Only european h850 can be unlocked.
H830 also has a way to root it.
H850 is the unlocked version, its rootable and the bootloader is officially unlockable, I'm from israel too....

And you managed to unlock the bootloader on your h-850 using this tutorial?
(and can you please check if your variant is the European one, there are some stores here in Israel that sell the European h850)

hi everyone
i have the lg g5 h850 middle east variant and i was wondering if i could flash the stock kdz of the european h850 through this site
http://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h850-firmwares/
and after that to do bootloader unlock and the whole rooting process.
is this possible at all?

You need to provide your IMEI to LG in order to get the code to unlock the bootloader, so no - simply flashing a different kdz won't work.
I bought a LG V30+ (V300) Korean version and I was wondering if it would be possible to flash an international stock rom on it.
Is this possible?
Anybody experience doing so?
Thank you.

There is no chance to fladh anotoher Rom in ours Lg V300k yet. First will be needed to unlock our bootloader (not achieved yet), then TWRP and finally to have suitable ROM's for ours devices.
Step be step, lets be patient

On LG V20 they flashed another ROM (KDZ) using a custom made LGUP.exe file -- BEFORE the bootloader was unlocked. They did it in order to unlock the bootloader, installed TWRP, then flashed back the orginal ROM while keeping TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74689131&postcount=123
However that method would only help you (on South Korean variant) if you then had a way to unlock the bootloader AFTER you flashed it.
This "flashing another KDZ variant"method would possibly work on the T-mobile H932 which already has easily unlocked bootloader, but just has most of the ADB flash commands removed. It would temporarily turn the H932 into an LG US998U once that KDZ is available. Install TWRP, flash back to original H932 firmware, while not overwriting the new TWRP recovery.
But doing that on South Korea model won't let you unlock bootloader because your IMEI is ineligible on the LG Developer website, and the bootloader unlock exploit the V20 devs used has been patched.

Shouldn't that be possible on this? Or was there a patched exploit after that? Sounds similar to the G4 if I remember correctly.

The bootloader unlock exploit they used on the V20 has been patched, but the T-mobile H932 V30 doesn't need a bootloader unlock exploit -- bootloader is easily unlocked. What it needs is a US998U KDZ and a custom made LGUP.exe to allow installing KDZ from another variant. That custom LGUP.exe is what does the magic, but a dev needs to make one that works on the LG V30. Go follow the links I posted.
Hello Everyone, I'm new to Lg mobiles.
I have just unlocked my G5 H830 BOOTLOADER via Fastboot and it worked.
I'm on latest 30c Oreo Firmware, now my question is, How do i install twrp? I'm a little confused with nougat firmware like you need to downgrade and then install twrp and hence root.
But can i directly flash twrp on my device via Fastboot on 30c Firmware?
Kindly bare with me, as i got confused and hence asking here.
Any help would be appreciated.

Look here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g5/development/root-h830-20a-nougat-lg-g5-hard-t3542496
You need to use lgup to downgrade to 20a and then follow the recowvery method to intall twrp. Best of luxk.
hi
I was trying to install TWRP on my LG H860 but since LG doesn't provide official unlock.bin for H860 Middle east region, i was thinking what if i could install a LG H850-UK ROM on my LG H860 and then try the official way in LG developer site to get my unlock.bin for unlocking the bootloader.
here are my main questions:
1- Does this action will hard brick my phone or mess up with my hardware?
2- Does it discard my IMEI?(since i'm using a ROM from another region)
3- If this method was successful, can i install a custom OS like Lineage OS?
