Dear All,
Please be advised that I have LG G5 H860 Dual SIM, and I want to know if there is any way to unlock the Bootloader because I would like to flash TWRP and test some custom ROMs?!
Thanks.

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.
Hello, i have lg g5 850 model, i have tried to unlock boot loader using lg website, but its giving me this error....
Your device (TEST_GPIN) does not support unlocking the bootloader. Please check your model. Your account will be locked if you enter the wrong information

This seems you have TEST/DEMO (H850 Model) Set that is not allowed to unlock bootloader.
ONLY H850 with valied IMEI pasted on the back of mobile canbe unlocked.
But the cell phone is working perfectly fine..also support sim card.. And in setting..its written lg h850

YES it will work perfectly fine as this is fully functional mobile but just for demonstration or demo use.
PURPOSE: Demo on Display, Company owned demo sets for promotion

LG has released the H850 for different geographical regions. The bootloader is only unlockable on the European version of the H850, and it's possible that your H850 is from one of the blacklisted regions. You can get some information by looking at the software version in "About Phone" in Settings. You're looking for something like "V10i-EUR-XX."
Now question is how can i unlock boot loader ? If i have different 850 model..so it means i cannot unlock boot loader by any means ? And cant instal any custom rom ever ?

Autoprime has published the definitive thread on unlocking the H850 bootloader here:

You may still be able to root you phone with instructions found here:

Good luck!
I'm looking to buy a new device and I found a h820 for cheap which is a at&t lg g5. It's unlocked so I plan on using on metro pcs. My question is will the h830 roms work on this device? Please advise and thanks for any feedback.

No. The h820 version can't unlock the bootloader, therefore no root, TWRP or custom ROMs for it at all. Only h830, h850, rs988 and h840 se can unlock bootloader. Only h830 and h850 have custom ROMs currently.
hello,
I received today my new lg v30 + H930DS and I would like to know how to unlock the bootloader install TWRP ... because I find solutions for the H930G version but nothing for the H930DS
Sorry, it's not on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.
http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryId=CTULRS0703
Either needs to be on the official LG unlock list or someone needs to find a bootloader unlock exploit.

not yet mate.. we're on the same boat here :laugh:
just wait patiently and hope for the best :fingers-crossed:
it is most likely never possible to unlock the bootloader of H930DS ? and it will never be on the LG list as suitable for unlocking the bootloader.
Why will LG do so? for a market is possible , and for others not?

Yes. There are variants that will never be possible. At least that has happened with the G6.
I did not buy the DualSim just for not having root... and I use 2 numbers :'(
Fellow Aussie here,
Same here peeps. Nothing yet. Sent an email off to LG in Australia, as well as LG Devs asking why it's not on the list. HOPEFULLY I'll get a response soon.

After flashing you'll get a piece of a brick instead of a phone!
