Go to the LG developer website and find out. If it is an EU H850, there you will find your answer.

man sorry to tell you this but none of the LG G5's aside from t-mobile h830 and the international h850 are bootloader unlockable and at the moment unless someone comes up with an unofficial bootloader unlock any version except those is not rootable.

Your device (TEST_GPIN) does not support unlocking the bootloader. Please check your model. Your account will be locked if you enter the wrong information

This seems you have TEST/DEMO (H850 Model) Set that is not allowed to unlock bootloader.
ONLY H850 with valied IMEI pasted on the back of mobile canbe unlocked.
But the cell phone is working perfectly fine..also support sim card.. And in setting..its written lg h850

YES it will work perfectly fine as this is fully functional mobile but just for demonstration or demo use.
PURPOSE: Demo on Display, Company owned demo sets for promotion

LG has released the H850 for different geographical regions. The bootloader is only unlockable on the European version of the H850, and it's possible that your H850 is from one of the blacklisted regions. You can get some information by looking at the software version in "About Phone" in Settings. You're looking for something like "V10i-EUR-XX."
Now question is how can i unlock boot loader ? If i have different 850 model..so it means i cannot unlock boot loader by any means ? And cant instal any custom rom ever ?

Autoprime has published the definitive thread on unlocking the H850 bootloader here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/official-european-lg-g5-h850-bootloader-t3363040
You may still be able to root you phone with instructions found here:

Good luck!
I have an Australian LG G5 H850 and I tried unlocking the bootloader but it's not supported for Australian models. I still would like to root it. I've read that it is possible to root without unlocking bootloader. How can I do this? I've tried kingoroot/kingroot as my last resort which also failed.

all the variants from Australia is not supported (i have the optus variant) and i have confirmed this with lg support as well lg dev.
I've just received OPTUS instead of requested European model and considering sending it back to the seller. Do you think there is any real chance unlocking bootloader for OPTUS will be available in the future? Is LG have any positive history of allowing unlocking more models with time?

This was my first LG phone and first phone that came with a locked bootloader. From what I've read there's next to no chance that LG will expand the list of models that can have their bootloader unlocked any time soon :crying: stuck with this phone 1 more year.
Is it possible to distinguish Australian from European without turning it on? Is there any signs on box? At a glance nothing at Australian box tells it's not an usual H850 - model everywhere marked as "H850" without any suffixes. Is European model marked in some other way, like "H850.EUR" on box?
hello,
I received today my new lg v30 + H930DS and I would like to know how to unlock the bootloader install TWRP ... because I find solutions for the H930G version but nothing for the H930DS
Sorry, it's not on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.

Either needs to be on the official LG unlock list or someone needs to find a bootloader unlock exploit.

not yet mate.. we're on the same boat here :laugh:
just wait patiently and hope for the best :fingers-crossed:
it is most likely never possible to unlock the bootloader of H930DS ? and it will never be on the LG list as suitable for unlocking the bootloader.
Why will LG do so? for a market is possible , and for others not?

Yes. There are variants that will never be possible. At least that has happened with the G6.
I did not buy the DualSim just for not having root... and I use 2 numbers :'(
Fellow Aussie here,
Same here peeps. Nothing yet. Sent an email off to LG in Australia, as well as LG Devs asking why it's not on the list. HOPEFULLY I'll get a response soon.
