I am from HK, forgive my bad english please...
I just buy a UK version v30 (H930)
I have a few question about:
1) I hope to use android 8.0. can I upgrade the phone to last version of H930? my phone version now is 7.1.2 V10v-EUR-XX
2) I found some reply in https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006 seems telling me that after rooted, I can't reboot the phone, otherwise the TWRP will lose, that means lost root? and I need to install TWRP and Root again every time.
3) after upgrade to android 8.0, can I just follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006 #1 to root?
thanks for read & help!!!
Your question is simply a TWRP question.
After installing TWRP custom recovery, you have to then immediately boot to TWRP and enable it. If you boot back to regular OS first, TWRP doesn't stick. That's all that warning means.
Once in TWRP that's when you flash the root method of your choice, Magisk or SuperSu.
See this post for bootloader unlock, TWRP, root. You already have H930 so you're already one step ahead:

Is there any information for installing TWRP for H901 Nougat 7 ?
I can't find anything...
I had to use Bridge update to fix my phone, now I'm looking for TWRP...
If you're on MM, get TWRP and do this:

If I were on MM I would not be asking this question..
This is the only way. No other option currently.
First are you rooted?
Second have you tried the ADB install of TWRP? That's the way I did it when I first got my phone.

There is no root for Nougat, I would have to have a recovery first to install a root if I remember right.
My boot loader is unlocked but I have not tried to install TWRP because I would like to know if there are any issues with putting TWRP with Nougat first.
I know how to do all this, I would like to know if anyone has already done it?

I wouldn't think there would be as I'm running TWRP. Since your bootloader is unlocked i think that is the hardest part, can you fastboot install it? I have upgraded from MM to N with a stripped Stock zip. I'd try it, worst case you just use LG bridge and are back to step 1.

Last I read, it's not a problem if you had TWRP with MM and upgraded to N.
not so sure if you took an OTA to N.
I get this error when trying to install TWRP;
"remote unknown command"
I found this on the web; lg has locked the fastboot commands. Until we have root you can't flash recovery.

Hello all,
I have a Verizon LG V30 that I converted to a US998 LG V30 using the Frankenstein method. Today, I clicked the Uninstall option in Magisk Manager and the device uninstalled it and rebooted. Upon rebooting, I was thrown into Fastboot mode with no way to get out (No Recovery, nothing.) I tried resetting through Fastboot to no avail. It still connects with Fastboot but nothing else. I can flash firmware with the patched LGUP but no file I have tried has worked. Is there anyway I can flash my V30 back to Stock VS996? Thank you.

Why isn't there a way to get into Recovery? Use the same fastboot commands you got into recovery the first time you installed TWRP. You can even use those commands to boot to TWRP on your phone even when TWRP is not installed on your phone, via "temp" TWRP.
Since you uninstalled root, you can't use the Reboot Recovery app anymore -- as that requires root access -- but you can still use the fastboot flash commands.

Yes, go into Download mode manually and use dev patched LGUP to flash VS996 Oreo KDZ with DL Partition method. Flash all partitions. Not sure why you are doing that however. You decided you don't want to own your phone anymore?
People who want to KEEP root and TWRP and go back to VS998 would use DL Partition method -- but UNtick the partition recovery partitions. Then you would still have VS996 but with TWRP. You would no longer have fastboot flash commands, but you would still have TWRP custom recovery. Then you just flash Magisk root. So you would have VS998 with TWRP and root.
And at that point you could even use the reboot recovery app with root to always easily get to TWRP.

Thank you very much. I am booting up my ADB and Fastboot to flash TWRP, as I still at least have an unlocked boot loader. I’ll download a Oreo KDZ for the Verizon Variant if that doesn’t work out. Do you have any sources for one on the forums? Thank you!
EDIT: Once I get into recovery, should I flash a stock ROM? There are a few on the ROMs section of the forums but I do not non which one to download.

1) Do your want to keep TWRP and root and just flash back to VS996 (while keeping TWRP and root)?
2) Or do you want to just keep TWRP but you don't want root right now?
If #1, once in TWRP, reflash Magisk.
Then reboot, and go into manual download mode BEFORE opening the patched LGUP. Then Frankenstein back to VS996 with DL PARTITION method, but untick (uncheck) the recovery partitions. Then you'll be back to VS996, but still have TWRP and be rooted.

Don't mind my other comment, I fixed what was going on there for the most part. I have tried 2 different firmware files and both of them will not boot. The Official LG Boot image (flashable with TWRP) flashed with no errors, but i just booted into download mode again. I also flashed LineageOS and the same thing happened. I tried the Refurbish and Upgrade option through LGUP and both stopped at 19% with error 0x2000. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you.

I bought a LG V30+ from ebay which had Magisk installed but its a system app. I updated Magisk to 18.1 unknowingly it would screw up. I tried to install Magisk through the Manager but unable to unpack the boot image.
I would appreciate any of your help.

Boot to TWRP, uninstall Magisk using the TWRP Magisk uninstaller.
Google it.
Then reinstall Magisk in TWRP.
Clean caches before rebooting.
You can download both the Magisk uninstaller and Magisk itself on PC and transfer over to phone while in TWRP, connected to PC.

Extract the magisk APK, install it. Have it download the newest manager and flash that in TWRP.

You can root without TWRP, but it can cause problems. You can't make backups to restore, you might accidentally install OTA updates -- which could brick the phone (which having TWRP custom recovery won't allow).
If you install TWRP the way I recommend, yeah you'll wipe data. On purpose, because you'll disable LG's nosy root checker file (none of their business if I have root) and disable LG encryption. (Then you can enable TWRP encryption if you wish.)

Seems like the best way is to just backup everything I have and install TWRP normally. Is there anything else I should know before doing such a thing? I have the US998 variant btw.

That's about it. Your bootloader is already unlocked, so you don't need to downgrade back to US998 20a or 20b.
What software version are you on? 20-what?

Very old. We're on 20H now with lots of fixes, improvements, DTS 3D stereo. You can upgrade via TWRP flashable zips once you get everything straightened out.
Also strongly consider installing this V30 Magisk mod:
[Magisk Module] AnxiousV30 (v224)
Works with rooted stock firmware, specifically North American variants. Best with US998 and VS996 but can work with others.

I've encountered a problem when I installed TWRP through adb, I saw it was done in 0.000 seconds which is kind of fishy. Tried to boot into TWRP, nothing happened, just the normal factory data reset settings. Is this normal?

How did you try to boot to TWRP? If you try through the hardware buttons (called hardware button dance) you'll get that until you mash the correct yes buttons. But that's not how you should boot to TWRP unless in case of emergency. Instead you should use the fastboot boot command. It's in my WTF instructions. You did read that, right? You have to boot straight to TWRP after installing or TWRP will not stick, and you have to make it writable before booting back to your OS or TWRP will not stick.
Then after root, you install the Reboot Recovery app and give it root privileges.

Ah now I know what I did wrong. Finally got Magisk to work again. I absolutely forgot the fastboot boot command. Thanks man, I really appreciate all the great help.
Hi, my H930DS is unlocked, TWRP and Magisk20, if I apply the AUS V30c OTA update all it does is reboot to recovery? I have downloaded the AUDV30c.KDZ to update using LGUp, I guess using refurbish because I have TWRP?
I have searched the forum looking for a copy of AUS V30c as twrp flashable, but cannot seem to find one.

You can NOT use OTA updates if you're bootloader unlocked and have TWRP custom recovery. Never.
You have try either flash a compatible TWRP flashable zip (EU H930 or India H939DS) or flash KDZ in Refurbish mode.
If you flash KDZ, your bootloader will still be unlocked.
Then once on Pie, follow Section 6 of WTF to re-install TWRP and the three root files.
From Pie KDZ threads:
____
With unlocked bootloader, then on Pie KDZ you can install TWRP and root.
Stable TWRP 3.2.3.7 is recommended by our TWRP dev -- yes, even on Pie.
To install TWRP and root, PLEASE follow these instructions for success!
Thanks, is it difficult to convert a kdz to twrp flashable? Is there a tutorial any where?
If it is to hard then I'll just use the kdz

Give us more information.
What V30 variant do you have? You can't just say my LG V30. There's two or three dozen different variants. They all don't act alike.
WHY do you have no OS? Did you accidentally wipe everything in TWRP?
Do you know what TWRP is? Have you tried restoring the recent TWRP backup you always create before you make any changes?
Were you bootloader unlocked, rooted?
What last OS did you have before this tragedy? Stock? If so, WHAT? LOS custom ROM? If so, what?
Basic answer without knowing anything, is if you have TWRP -- drag over compatible TWRP flashable zip (i.e. stock ROM) while in TWRP GUI and flash it as well as Magisk.
If you don't have TWRP, flash compatible KDZ in Dev Patched LGUP found in any of the Pie KDZ threads. Use Refurbish mode.
