If you mean bootloader unlock, no. That we know of. We discovered the other US998 V30 by accident. It's possible it's in the IMEI database listed someway we don't know, because LG won't tell us. They still haven't officially announced the US998 V30 bootloader unlock.

I search everywhere.
Any chance for somebody to upload P760 V20B Europe Open so I can unlock my daughter's Phone

I've checked a lot of places, since I want to unlock the bootloader of my L9 also. It appears no one has it for a weird reason. So, idk.

ikr? Like maybe it was buggy or something, but it's one of the only ways to unlock the bootloader on the L9.

I had my phone rooted with TWRP and bootloader unlocked.
I had to unroot by flashing the firmware RS98811c_00_ARB01.kdz from lg-firmwares.com/lg-rs988-firmwares/.
Then I relocked the bootloader, perform the OTA updates to 11d then once more to Nougat. The encryption was incorrect and locked me out of the phone, but then I was able to simply factory reset right into Nougat.
Make sure you do your SD card decryption and proper backup before doing ANY of this.

Can I root and install twrp on the LG LG V30+ US998U?

Just wondering if it is possible yet?

NO, not until it's placed on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.
https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev
Believe me, when it happens you won't have to ask. For one the TWRP thread won't say "for H930 only" and stuff like that. Or there will be another TWRP thread opened... I hope that doesn't happen, would be best to have one LG V30 TWRP.
Thank Chazz! I am on TMobile. Will I have to root to get all the bands eligible to be used? I don't want to lose volte and have worse coverage with this expensive phone than my old v30

If you mean LTE band 71, yeah. But should have all other bands already.
And band 71 by root is speculation based on a T-Mobile networking folder in the hidden menu files that can't be accessed without root. Or the ability to flash T-Mobile radio over the US998, again with root.
Neither are guaranteed until we try it, but devs are very creative.

Last question Chazz and thanks buddy. You really think there will be Dev support? There is like none for the mi mix 2.

All I can go by is the bootloader unlocked model V20 (late 2016) and G6 (mid 2017 by the time bootloader unlock came). The US997 LG G6 in particular has TWRP, root, ROMs. The only thing messed up is there are two versions of TWRP, one for the European and an "unofficial" for the US997. I hope that mistake is not made for the V30 US998.

T-Mobile LG V30 Unlocking manually/toolkit

Is there a Way to manually unlock my tmobile LG V30? maybe a all in one toolkit or something. I would pay a company, but I'm broke at the moment. also a unlocking service is at min 160 since I have to use the app. any help would be greatly appreciated. I currently cants use my phone service as the darn phone I just bought isn't unlocked though it was supposed to be. oh yea and the jerk I bought it from has an unpaid balance so thers that as well. isn't craigslist amazing eh?
First, check your phone's IMEI status in T-Mobile DB here: https://www.t-mobile.com/verifyIMEI.aspx
If your phone is blocked, even if you have the money to pay for the unlock, it won't be successful.
The only method left is to flash the firmware and install another one.

Flash what firmware and install "another" what? You can't crossflash firmware of other variants on the LG V30.
Or you're talking about changing the IMEI, which can't be discussed on XDA.

I don't mean changing the IMEI, but if your is blocked only in T-Mobiel databases, theIMEI is not blacklisted (globally) , so you don't need to change it.

You could look here. It should work, however this perticular guide is for the h850 international version - no guarantees.
Let me know if it doesn't work.
It needs the lg page, which was terminated from 2021

Its ridiculous that LG isn't letting people unlock the bootloader on a phone that's 6 years old. I guess they're not getting my business.
Yeah, is there other way?

I've been looking, but it seems like LG had been letting people unlock the bootloader... and then decided to lock it back down.
In other words, no.
