Unlocking bootloader & Build prop. - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone, I wanted to know since it's 2018 is it still not possible to unlock the bootloader for the H860?
Cause I think one could use the LG's official method of unlocking it .
Also say if somehow it does unlock then could I use the H850 Roms? Or a way tricking the device thinking thinking it's a h850 instead? Like changing the build prop or something ?
Really need help with cause I can't buy a new phone yet

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.

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...

Lg h960yk
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.

Another way to unlock the lg g5 Bootloader rather than the official one?

Might be able to root using dirty cow method... But official unlock is the only way to get custom recovery and flash ROMs

H850 has locked bootloader, so you cann't get root and use custom roms. If you want custom ROM buy European H850 and unlock bootloader.
Hello,
Here is the list of smartphones that can have the bootloader unlocked according to LG.
On the other hand the model H830 if I understood well can be in ROOT without unblocking the bootloader https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...-h830-t3384526
The question is: can we do the same for the H860N or the H860
