Hi
Just a stupid question. I have two H850, one unlocked, second could not be unloked. Can i copy whole unlocked h850 file system and flash it with LG-UP to not unlocked one?
I think you can by reading full firmware of unlocked one via edl mode via service boxs which support reading firmware from lg g5.
You can flash the firmware you read to the unlocked one .
But i think it will not boot

I have a non-international phone so without code from Lg I cant unlock bootloader. Some guys are doing things. I could not understand difference.
are they trying to root a already unlocked phone or are they trying to unlock bootloader?

Steps for getting your device root
1. Unlock your bootloader
2. Flash .tot file suitable for your phone model. (Twrp Recovery is included)
3. Flash super su and a fix which will be available in the same thread.
Your device should be rooted .
Hope i helped

This is only helpful is they have the H850 or H830 model number. If they do not, then unfortunately there is no root available but we are doing EVERYTHING we can to get this to work.
mine is LG G5 850 TR so from I cant unlock bootloader so no chance to root.
I have LG G5 850 TR,too. Someone must give us unlock code!
Hey there,
the bootloader of my G5 (h850) is unlocked.
TWRP installed, root not yet (but i could)
For some unknown reason my wireless does not work anymore so i wanted to update my android to V10D (europe).
After i will install custom roms but at first i wanted to know if i have a hardware problem.
Due to the TWRP an OTA update is not possible .
Now my question:
Can i install V10D via LGUP with an unlocked bootloader?
Or do I have previously perform a relock ?
thanks in advice
you can with unlocked
just go ahead
Hey guys, I'm not a developer but I could use some help to be able to use my phone again. I just moved to another country and can't use SIM because it's locked by the original operator.
Well, I've managed to root the device (RootCheck says so) and installed SuperSu. What should I do now to unlock the phone's SIM capabilities? Install a new ROM? unlock bootloader?
Thank you in advance
Charo
There is no bootloader unlock for the D625 and, thus, no custom ROMs.
Flash an unbranded version of your phone's firmware with LG Flash Tool.
I've tried a couple KDZ but SIM is still locked.
Any other options for this?

Try one that says "open" or "unbranded".
Cant believe it was that easy! I just went into fastboot and unlocked it via the prompts! I get the warning when i reboot my phone saying the bootloader is unlocked! How do I get twrp on here and root this sucker!

And it doesn't do any good (right now).
T-Mobile H932 has crippled ADB.
There's a T-Mobile H932 specific thread where they're trying to get root and stuff:
T-Mobile LG V30 H932 | Progress Towards Root/TWRP/ROMs (not achieved yet)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3690577
Then, when you finish that, go read this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3665927
That last thread was started back in early September -- and even then on the first page, we detailed the issue T-Mobile LG V30 would have, based on the T-Mobile LG G6.
Both the LG carrier unlocked versions have official bootloader unlock and root, while the T-Mobile model has a bootloader unlock but most of the ADB flash commands are removed. The T-Mobile LG G6 STILL doesn't have root.

yes as always for LG TMO's , but probably you still don't have write commands enabled on Fastboot.
You should only be able to send "read" commands from there

Question
If i will try to unlock the H930G Israel model (no carrier) using this method (fastboot) - will i theoretically have write commands?
the H930G italy model is the only one to get the bootloader unlock for now.

You can try on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list website, but when you put in your IMEI or serial number or whatever they go buy, they'll probably say the phone isn't eligible. Same way U.S.Cellular version is not eligible...
But wouldn't hurt to try. LG system could have a snafu and you might very lucky.
Goodbye warranty for no benefit. you have no fastboot commands, so it is useless to unlock on your phone model.
and the phone keeps track of if the bootloader has been unlocked, even if you re-lock it.
That might be a big deal for some but the way I go through phones I'm not too concerned.

Yup.. Didn't need unlock.bin.. Just like you said.. Strange.. Has anyone tried using write commands or is everything I'm reading assumptions? I can't find proof of What was tried anywhere.. What if twrp recovery worked? No one can confirm really unless it exists.. What if writing recovery is one of few commands that might work.. Any information would be appreciated..

What you did is useless. Been discussed for a hundred pages elsewhere. Notice you've dug up an old thread from December 2017?
Right now (September 2018), every V30/V30+/V30S on the planet can be bootloader unlocked and rooted ----except for T-Mobile H932. Been that way since mid-May 2018, when we discovered the WTF Oreo bootloader unlock expoit.
H932 does not have any fastboot flash commands, so cannot be rooted. Also, since it has different RSA encryption it cannot be converted (Frankenstein) to carrier unlocked US998 which does have fastboot flash commands, like all the other North American variants.
See post #2 of this thread you are in for more information. I notice you quoted post #1 but didn't quote post #2? There were only 7 posts in this thread before it died off! If you can't find proof it's because you haven't actually looked... Here's post #2, from December 1, 2017:

Go read THAT referenced thread, which is current, and is up to 148 pages now. H932 may get root eventually, but right now still impossible.
Also, you could have bought a carrier unlocked V30 and use it on T-Mobile and have root. Or you could buy a mint LS998 for just over $300 off eBay, convert it to carrier unlocked US998 and have root.
(WTF...!) LG V30/V30+/V30S Bootloader Unlock & Root Method (With Clear Instructions)
I am thinking that to unlock lg h860 we can first flash lg g5 h850 rom in it and then we can unlock the bootloader bec i think hardware configration is same lg g5 so this method should work had anybody tried this??
I found this method below at the link posted to unlock the bootloader for the H860. Try this at your own risk, I have not tried it myself because I dont own the phone yet.
https://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-g5-h860n/faq/faq/lg-bootloader-unlock/
I doubt this will work, so far only European H850s have had the ability to unlock. It's not as simple as flashing a H850 rom either, that doesn't override the bootloader.
Flashing the whole rom (a KDZ rom or every img file from a complete zip, with all the complementary partitions, as the bootloader) could be in theory a solution. But you should be able to trick LGUP so that is sees your H860 as an H850, and then flash the ROM (hoping that the partition scheme is compatible). You should also make sure that the H850 bootloader can't detect it's being loaded on a H860 (refusing to boot), and only then you will be able to flash TWRP and do whatever you want on the phone.
Unfortunately, I don't know any way to circumvent these two obstacles.
Flashing just the bootloader using
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
shouldn't work, as the bootloader is locked.
In my developer option I now see : Enable OEM unlock option. Does it mean my H860 is unlockable?
In theory yes, try enabling the option and unlocking the bootloader.
