Flash H830 rom to H831 - LG G5 Questions & Answers

i found this custom rom named LinageOS and i want to try but i only found a version for h830, can i use it to my h831?

You can't unlock the bootloader of the h831, so flashing twrp and custom roms is not an option.

Not any time soon. I thought Microsoft nailed down the bootloader.

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.

I have the South African H850 but I read that apparently it can be unlocked. I currently have V20A flashed on it.

You do not need to downgrade, follow the guide to install TWRP after unlocking your bootloader and you are ready to flash anything you want.

Allright.
A Phone always comes with a locked bootloader so if you don't unlocked it yourself it is still locked.
To flash twrp you will need a unlocked bootloader and to unlock a bootloader you need rootacess.
I used the app rlashr to flash twrp and boot in recovery. Don't forget to type 'su' in a terminal before you use it (at the guide how to unlock a bootloader)
This guide tells you how to do everything:
(Follow these steps: root -> bootloader-> recovery(twrp))

Thanks @ChazzMatt. I finally took the plunge and unlocked bootloader following the WTF guide. I installed the font through TWRP and now have my V30+ looking much more like the Pixel
