I need testing help - LG V30 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
As you know there are people working on the laf exploit, well I found my way and now I'm helping out on the v30 end. Unfortunately, I have Verizon variant of the v30 when right now I need the the fully unlocked us998. Can I get somebody who would be willing to work with me who has that specific variant? Let me know if you'd be willing to help by commenting down below and I will contact you via xda messages to start. Thank you ahead of time for willingness to help! Hope to hear comments really quickly! Thank you

I have the US998 V30+
I just flashed it to the Verizon Oreo KDZ. Not sure if it is any different than yours now.
Let me know if I can help.
I guess it depends what you mean by "fully unlocked."

If you can do me a favor and try to see if you have full fastboot commands? If you need help with that let me know!
- Thank you

How would I determine that?
Device does not respond to fastboot devices or fastboot reboot.

He did but note that he ended up flashing the verizon software which might have locked it down.

No. US998 V30+ does not have bootloader unlock yet.

US998 (US Cellular) it's not unlocked but it does have fastboot commands. How can we get root? I'm willing to help with mine for testing purposes. I also have a H912 (but I think that was cracked already?)

If you don't mind losing your data, enable developer options then see if there is an option for "enable OEM unlock". If there is, check the box and reboot. Then make sure you have your drivers installed, open a terminal and run adb reboot bootloader. if it boots to bootloader, run fastboot oem unlock.

There's a toggle in Developer Option that will enable the unlocking of Bootloader. I don't see any workaround about the rooting for this V10 series.
i have LG v10 H960 variant. i can see in the developer option the unlock bootloader option. Does it mean i can unlock and root my phone?
Pretty sure everyone has the toggle but only t-mobile version can actually be unlocked.

I bought this phone because of its elegance, without root, its just like beauty without enough brain... :S

See another thread about root bounty.
Long story short, there was found a way, but it's insecure and the author will not release it until a TOT file is available (for phone unbrick/firmware reflash) - so be patient, it may take months, or will not happen ever...

So did anyone found a method to root the h960yk or should i sell my phone ?

Is it possible to use the official unlock bootloader for H860?!

I have been surfing the web for couple of days to find a way to unlock the bootloader for LG G5 H860, but i couldnt find any thing
could any one help me with that ?
not possible. H850 EU only... as stated on the official site as well as the XDA G5 thread for bootloader unlocking.
To expand on what @autoprime said, at the moment, the only model that can have the bootloader unlocked is the H850.

probably not YET possible. We still have to wait for someone to discover an exploit. Non-unlockable bootloader doesn't necessarily mean no root forever, there are billions of ways out there to do it, but no one has found it yet for our variant. I remember rooting my Xperia Acro S without unlocking it (even though it was possible at that time). I love the phone anyway, even without root.
any update about unlocked boot loader for h860 (dual sim)?
Thanks!

I've graduated to the G5 from the G3, the bootloader for which was locked down tight by LG. The geniuses working on the G3 developed an exploit called Bump! that let users flash ROMs on the G3 despite its locked bootloader. It would be nice if something equivalent could be developed for the G5.

Bootloader Unlock for H850 non-Europe

Hi,
I have an Israeli LG G5 H850, the Official bootloader unlock tells me that it's not possible because it's from Israel and not from europe.
Is there an unofficial way to unlock the bootloader without wiping it?

Why would you do such a thing out off all the variations out there
Cause of great support and community support (XDA) for sams**t handsets...
There's so many devices out there that can do the same
Oneplus 5 should be coming this year ?
Treat yourself
Still no way of unlocking bl of that specific model of the H850?
Or a method to root it without unlocking bl?
I would wipe everything and flash any rom or sth.
Possible?? Thanks in advance!
Never again LG, totally disappointing.

V20 just got boot loader unlock, does this help us with locked G5's?

Nope.
This exploit only works for a device with an unlocked bootloader.
We cant even access fastboot let alone unlock the bootloader if we could.
Trust me, I also have the Canadian variant and am hoping for some sort of root exploit.

AT&T v520, any future hope for root..??

So I'm building a custom dash mount for an 8" tablet, and I'd love to use my v520 G Pad X 8.0, but I'll probably grab a Nexus if the future is looking dim on this current setup.. So just wondering, would you guys assume that rooting the AT&T variant is probably never gonna happen..??
Thanks..
I am curious about this as well. This would be the first LG device I have owned that will not have been rooted. I probably wouldn't have bothered with the deal from ATT if I had suspected it would never be rooted.

I do not know. Is there a way to check? My v520 has a cracked digitizer, so I would be more than happy to be a Guinea pig.

Try to issue this command in adb termknal (adb reboot bootloader) if it take you to the fastboot mode then it can be unlocked

Unfortunately, all it did was reboot back into android. SO I am assuming root won't be coming this way. Doubt I'll even repair this since I can't root it.
I am assuming an OEM unlock code is needed?
One additional thing: I can enable OEM Unlock in the Developer Options

Has there been any action on getting this to root? I bought this not realizing the V521 was different. What a bummer so far!

Makes me wonder if the DirtySanta method for lg v20s could possibly work or be made to work. Unfortunately, that is WAY out of my scope of abilities and me2151 has ceased all further work on DirtySanta since everything he had done was on a laptop that was stolen from him (IIRC).
