I had phones before that could not get root because the bootloader could not be unlocked if they were carrier-branded. Is there a chance with the Moto G4 Plus that it could not get root or custom recovery (TWRP)? I am thinking of getting this one but would like to confirm it can get root and CM? I'm in Canada. :good:

I have LG G2 d802 international running kitkat 4.4.2
I have rooted it using ioroot25 and then flashed TWRP recovery (with AutoRec).. now I want to install a custom rom but I've learned that the process includes an unlocked bootloader and I don't know if I have one..How can I tell ? or just being rooted means I have an unlocked bootloader? please help !
thanx,
Don't worry too much about locked/unlocked bootloader just yet. If you are rooted with a custom recovery, you're good to go.

MM Root it's not possible in any way locked bootloader devices. only way unlocked bootloader and custom kernel. Stock kernel root impossible.

Thanks for the reply.
It is knowing that commands operating in MM, thought he could do the same in LP, have root eventhough have locked bootloader, all for ADB commands.
"I die" wait to unlock my bootloader; but my model is not unlockable officially. H815P
I understand the language. It is indeed instruction to get root on MM with locked bootloader. Only tested on f500 and OP is the only 1 with success so far. Lets wait and see if more will come up
Edit: this is NOT root for locked bl on MM. OP just made it clear to me on the other site

No. Currently and for the forseeable future it is NOT possible to root Marshmallow with a locked bootloader.

Do you want me to quote all three posts again?
Root on Marshmallow requires a modified kernel. You cannot boot a modified kernel with a locked bootloader.
I don't know about other models, but H811 allows you to unlock the bootloader and root on Marshmallow, but it's not via supersu injection.
Well months have been passed. Any news about to root H815P? I still have my Bootloader locked and LG's site says that my model cant be unlocked. Any idea?
Guys. This is for sending files to the phone kinda like adb. Not root. It more like for executing files that are already on the phone.
IN No WAY IS THIS A ROOT METHOD
YOU CANNOT ROOT MM WITH A LOCKED BL. ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN ANYTIME SOON

Rooting MM with Superuser ... is not possible with locked bootloaders as Chainfire's method requires modification of the boot partition and that equates to a brick with bootloaders that are not officially unlocked through LG.
Downgrade to LP, root and install steadfasterX's TWRP-in-FisH @ https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/locked-twrpinfish-locked-g4-devices-t3573048 if you want a working custom recovery version that will work on LG G4's with locked bootloaders. Version 3 Beta 4 & 5 are very stable - download links are in later posts on his site.
He is working on porting EFIdroid in FisH, that if successful will eventually allow one to boot custom roms, i.e., you may be able to have your rooted MM with a locked bootloader at some point ... just not yet.

If on MM you will first have to downgrade to LP with LGUP-NEW at https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803 if you are able to. You will have to search for an H815P10 stock rom. Then see if you can find a pre-rooted image of that rom. You can follow this guide to obtain root or install a pre-rooted image if you are able to find one: Root ANY LG G4 Variant 100% Success Directives | Root Injection | Less Bricks at https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-100-root-success-directives-root-t3180586.
If you want a custom recovery for your locked bootloader, check this out by steadfasterX: [LOCKED][G4][TWRP][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP-in-FIsH for all locked G4 devices at https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/locked-twrpinfish-locked-g4-devices-t3573048
You will not be able to install a custom rom, however, but steadfasterX is working on EFIdroid-inFisH that, if successful, will eventually allow the installation of a custom rom on a locked bootloader.
Hope it helps.

hey guys,
Hope I am not too late, I found a way around this.
What I did was downgrade from Marshmallow to Lollipop.
I did it by using the LGUP program and following this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/fix-unbricking-lg-g4-h818p-stuck-t3707485
In short what I did was:
1. Download the kdz
2. Download LGUP and install it, then the dll thing that comes in the archive.
3. Install LG drivers
4. Put device in download mode by pressing up and inserting a usb cable when device is powered off
5. start LGUP and select "Refurbish"
6. in the path select the kdz (even though its looking for tot files).
7. Flash Lollipop and boot
8. Go back to download mode, now you have Send_Command.exe
Then I flashed "H815L 10F.kdz" which gave me stock Lollipop on 815L. I am not sure where I got it, It was sitting on my disk. But basically anything which has H815L (for the model), and 10 which means its Lollipop should work.
Then I could go in to download mode and run Send_Command.exe

NOTE: All LG G4's (with the exception of H818), can be unlocked unofficially now with steadfasterX's: [UNLOCK][UNOFFICIAL][G4] Unlock **ANY** LG G4 device with UsU, provided you are on stock Marshmallow and your ARB is less than or equal to 2.
I.E., you can now install a custom TWRP recovery, root and upgrade to Nougat, Oreo etc.
Hello everyone! I've been looking for bootloader unlocking and root for my Moto x style running 6.0.1, but i can only find root for 5.1.1 etc and i really don't want to make any mistakes so if someone could link me a tutorial that really works or tell me what to do i'd be really happy. I've rooted before but long time ago so i have some knowledge.
Regards

There many topics for how to unlock bootloader for the moto x pure, also on the website from moto itself. when thats done, you can flash TruePure ROM, what in my opinion is a good custom stockROM, or just flash supersu inside the bootloader

Wow man, if you unlocked the bootloader you need to flash another recovery like twrp, when you flashed twrp you can flash supersu or TruePure
Huge suggestion. Please read through these forums for the Style/pure. All of your questions are answered throughout well as info you haven't asked about that you may find useful.
For the most part, unlocking the bootloader and rooting is easy. There is information discussing rooting 6.0.

Flash recovery with fastboot
Hey all.
I've a question. In GT-i9500, is there the need to unlock bootloader as in Motorola devices before flashing custom ROMs. Or it comes with it's bootloader pre-unlocked?
Would be very glad on your response
Thank You!

in I9500 we can update bootloader and go back to old without problems and we can flash roms without need to unlock
Verizon and AT&T devices usually have locked bootloaders. Everything else should be unlocked.

Then we should first of all unlock bootloader before flashing roms?
Unless the S4 is a US model sold by AT&T or Verizon, which yours isn't, the bootloader will be unlocked. That means being able to update the bootloader, radio, and installing custom ROMs, as previously stated. Keep in mind the following: Samsung does not use fastboot, thus any commands you could use on a Motorola device will not work on a Samsung device. You will have to use Odin.

I-9500 came with factory unlocked bootloader.
If your phone really is i-9500 as you said,
install the custom recovery like TWPR or CWM via odin and
flash the custom rom of your choice via the custom recovery.

l have a question if my i9500 says secure download enabled does that mean its bootloader locked +++
Asked and answered already in this thread. Unless your S4 is an SGH-I337 or SCH-I545 (AT&T and Verizon respectively) your bootloader will not be locked.
Hello. I'm new to Android and all of this rooting and stuff but I want to try out flashing a custom ROM but I don't know how. Do you need to be rooted? I know about custom recoveries and stuff but I need to know exactly how.
EDIT: My model number is WAS-LO3T
My build number is WAS-LO3TC654B198
EDIT 2: I watched the One Click Root video. Is it safe? Is kingroot safe?
ANYONE? pls

For rooting phone need unlock bootloader and flash TWRP. Then yet flash root.
And forgot about king root. Only SU.

How to root link below (includes unlocking the bootloader). Follow the steps very carefully as this is your first time rooting. I am not to blame nor anyone here on xda if you end up with a bricked phone. If you use android pay this will no longer work, some bank apps will not work either FYI due to root.
At present there is only one custom rom available however this is not specifically made for our device but for the p8 lite. When I flashed it about a month ago there are some bugs still like camera not working. Hopefully some talented people will buy our device and develope a custom rom for us.
