I have the same version, but still there is no root for H860.
I read in a forum somewhere that there is + $1200 as a bounty for whoever figure out how to root the g5 in general.

When purchasing my LG G4, I researched the LG G3 and saw the support. If you guys looked up the LG G4 prior to buying the G5 you would realize that there will be nothing or very little support for the device as the only 1 version have an unlocked bootloader. The others will never get it. This phone will turn out worse than the LG G4 which was extremely bad.
HI,
Is the LG G5 H860 is impacted by QuadRooter as it's not yet rooted?
Bye,
Proc.
I wish I saw this thread before I bought mine, LOL! I'm sure we'll get root eventually though.
Our variant h860 is it a US one (Verizon, Sprint) or a Taiwanese variant or something else ?

The H860 is SE Asia I believe.

agreed!!
The LG G5 is a really great smartphone, coming from a Note 5, I can say that it's the best phone that I ever used .
However, using a phone that its manufacturer is locking its bootloader makes me nervous ! The disability to root my device makes me uncomfortable ...
Has anyone tried using the H860N technique shown in this video (below) on their H860?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trWtvmCstGE
Not compatible bro. Also this guy has an old samsung in his video...
I was thinking about switching to LG5, but I'm glad I visited this forum for info before doing so. I guess I will just continue my quest. Thank you all.

Has anyone developed a root method for LG G5 H860 yet? I tried KingRoot, Stumproot and OneClickRoot but to no avail... even tried unlocking the bootloader via LG Developer site but it is no supported... please help.
This is also confirmed to work for the open market V30S sold by B&H Photo:

I'm sure the answer is that it won't work, but I want to confirm.
Will doing this ruin LG Pay when it's eventually released in the US or will there be a way to fix it IE Magisk or something.
Recently switched from an S8 and I miss Samsung Pay.
like the look of the V30S, especially since it's $230 cheaper than the V35. Has anyone actually bought and tried it? I'd like to use it on Verizon and it has all the right bands to work but I want to be sure. And it would be nice to know if it's Treble enabled.

As a user of Straight Talk, which uses Verizon networks, the phone works just fine.
Switched from an S8+ to this. So far I'm liking it. The only real difference I've noticed is that it's only slightly smaller. Battery great. 50% after 12 hours. About four of which it was used.
V30S on the way
Sweet my V30S is on the way from B&H!!

You can use Magisk to hide bootloader unlock and root.
You need to ask these questions over in the V30 forum. The V30S is just another V30 "Joan" variant, like the V30+. They are all "Joan" devices, same TWRP works for all, same ROMs work for all.
The LG V35 is the one that is different that need their own forum! V30S is just another V30, but with more RAM.

Are the V30S and V30 (and V30+, and...) stock ROMs the same? In the V30 forum, for the latest 20E update, you wrote:
NOTE: This is for all V30/V30+ US998 -- open market US998 V30/V30+ as well as U.S Cellular US998 V30/V30+.

"V30s" is not in the list. Is that because it's not compatible... or because LG has mucked up the model numbers so much that it's hard to keep straight and it was accidentally omitted? lol
I thought the V30S has Google Lens and more AI options in the camera and voice controls, hence the ThinQ in the model name. Like the G7 has. If all this is true... Does that mean I could flash the V30S stock ROM to my V30 (US998, 64GB, 4GB) and get those extra features?! Or, am I wrong, and the stock V30S ROM is the same as my stock V30 ROM? Where can I even get the V30S stock ROM? It's not in the V30 forum, nor is it here.
I know that LG has cast off the shackles of the traditional release cycle, and is releasing much more iterative updates more frequently... so... at what point does the hardware diverge enough to prevent cross-flashing the stock ROMs among versions?
Thanks for the help. I've been happily humming along with my US998 on 20B lately, and just recently played with a G7 and Google Lens in the camera. Now I'm digging a little and getting confused.

Yes, ALL V30/V30+/V30S are ThinQ, with Oreo. ALL the US998 V30/V30+/V30S use the SAME KDZ.

LG says Q2 2019. So, sometime between April and end of June.
That was my prediction from the beginning -- last year when it started being discussed. And I was right. LG finally confirmed it in January.
Basically about the same time of year they delivered Oreo last year.

No, because the article also specifically mentioned the V30S, which is a US998 variant. All US998 firmware is the same for US998 V30/V30+/V30S.
https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/...dule-for-south-korea-v35-and-v40-are-up-next/
the V40, V30, and V30S will have to wait until Q2 2019 (ends on June 30).

Even if LG tried to release Pie for just US998 V30S, it's still ALL of US998. Well, I mean I would feel sorry for the H930 variants and H932, but the rest of North America variants can flash US998 firmware. But I'm fairly certain it's ALL V30 variants in Q2. You can't say V30 and V30S and then leave out any.
From the Reddit thread:
LG also posted a list of LG phones that will receive Pie in Korean. Availability may vary depending on your region.
2019 Q1: G7, V35
2019 Q2: V40, V30, V30S
2019 Q3: G6, V20, Q8 (2018)
2019 Q4: Q9, X5 (2018)

Not all V30S are US998 variants though
The V300LW/KW/SW are korean V30S(+). So could very well be that "we" all will receive pie only in Q3, while the koreans still get it in Q2.
One thing is certain, LG is not a brand for those who love having an updated phone, given this behavior, my next smartphone will certainly not be LG !!

@SGCMarkus, thank you for the information about the Korean V30S. I hadn't run across the Korean variants of the V30S, but with the model numbers you supplied it was now easy to find.
I also knew while initially LG had also announced a 256GB V30S+, I never saw any proof it actually released. Here in the U.S. only the 128GB V30S was released, basically a V30+ with 6GB RAM.
But here are the details for anyone else who is interested in the V30S:

If you want quick updates, you go Google. All those OEM's listed still update slow. Maybe except for Nokia, which no one is buying anyway. Everyone else is all pretty slow.
People aren't buying any of those guys for the updates. They're buying them for what the phones offer out of the box.
If you bought an LG phone and you were seriously expecting reasonable updates, you haven't been paying attention.
So go whine about not buying an LG phone again because it's not being updated fast enough for you. That should have been apparent with their history of slow updates.

Can we just all agree we know LG is bad about updates? No need to go back and forth.
Yet LG promised about a year ago to do better. So there's some disappointment there, in spite of their acknowledged bad history before that.

It's old news that LG is bad about updates. Everyone should know that. It's foolish to have believed their promise that they would do better without any substantial proof to support that claim.
I got the V30 because it was a good purchase out of the box. I bought this phone knowing that I'd be upgrading to a phone with the latest software before this phone was updated. I've used a lot of LG phones. [emoji2377]
They don't surprise me. They shouldn't surprise anyone at this point. I'd have been surprised if they lived up to their promise for faster updates.

LG Pay is allegedly only available in Korea and soon to launch in U.S.
But you can probably side load off APK mirror. Just like some V30 have to sideload LG FM Radio. I can't guarantee that.
But nevertheless it's compatible with "V30". Just may be Korean variants right now.
They will probably include it with North American variants Pie...
I tried all 3 versions on apkmirror and none work. H930DS v30+ rooted with wtf and flashed to open EU 22j. The two us 1.x versions refuse to start, saying "update required". The Korean 6.x loads but then says "mobile data required" and force quits.
I am using the latest microg, this may impact it.
If LG Pay works on our V30s and supports the MST technology, that would be DOPE
Hello everyone! I have a question regarding the LG G5 VS987. My so recently bought an LG G5 VS987 refurb which came unlocked and with a Verizon Oreo rom (which has quite a few intrusive Verizon apps) and I would like to know if there's any way for this specific model to be converted to an unlocked North American model or any "international" version that doesn't have these apps and other things? Or any that at least still gets some security patches? Just wondering, because I recently converted (Frankenstein method) an LG V30 H931 (AT&T) to a US998, and I remember similar procedures for the LG G3 back in the day and the Galaxy S4.
There's a program called lgup dualmode that you can use for crossflashing, but i can't confirm if it works for the g5 and it may brick your phone
