Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to get rid of retail mode on my LG G8x Thinq Demo Unit? I want to be able to use it as a normal phone without the texting capabilities. Is there something I can install or turn off to do so? Thank you!

I'm planning to buy my new phone since my Lg g4 occurred a boot loop issue recently. I purchased a Huawei honor 5x and I'm not satisfied, (LG g4 is far more superior than honor 5x sorry) and planning to upgrade to G5. I saw a deal on B&H, LG G5 Rs988(North american variant unlocked) with charging cradle, extra battery and $50 B&H gift certificate for only $399. Then last night, I saw a new deal from B&H which is LG G5 H820 (At&t variant unlocked) for only $339. What should i get, The h820 or the rs988? Do these variants received a nougnat update with no issues? Just disregard the bundle i really don't care with the bundle. I just want to have a phone no problem at all (in terms of LTE and gps since image retention can be fix). And I'm planning to use T-Mobile sim card for my new phone and I'm hearing some issues that their LTE doesn't work. Please help me on choosing between H820 (At&t variant unlocked) and Rs988 (north american variant unlocked). And i'm from California if this is needed. Thank you so much!

I have owned the RS988 first then swapped to the H820 as LTE was a nightmare to get working on AT&T using the RS988, plus the H820 has Wifi calling and one other thing I forgot that made the jump worth it for me. H820 does have AT&T bloatware on it, but it's manageable. Neither model has root or Android Nougat yet. Neither work with the B&O Hi-Fi DAC module, nor have FM radio. I can't talk about T-Mobile working or not. Those are my experiences for you!

thanks for the reply! i already bought the rs988 from b&h since they have a deal $449 with free battery cradle, extra battery, lg cam plus, lg 360 vr and free expedited shipping. so i grabbed it. i dont really use the wifi cqlling but that is a big plus. but i saw that all frequency of tmobile is supported by rs988 so i hope there will be no problem in Lte haha. i hope LG provide a nougnat update for both h820 and rs988. thanks a lot!

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

Thanks for the reply. I'm aware of it, used it for the V30 but could not find if something similar can be done with the G5.

Hi, hoping someone can help. I brought a LG V600TM from a UK seller and have tried unlocking using DoctorSim and onlineunlocks.. Both have been unsuccessful.. Is it possible to unlock a LG V600TM without actually being in America on the TMobile service? If so, how do I do it... I so want to use it as its amazing.
Thanks!
