Did you ever figure out which variant will work in India? I've read that the Verizon one isn't sim locked, but do the GSM frequencies you need match?

Yes,i checked with Wikipedia Verizon - VS980 model matches with international edition with 2G and 3G network and it does not support for LTE(it does not a problem for me).
is it any problem to buy that mobile in USA?
Hi
I bought an unlocked at&t LG G2 D800 seeing it has LTE 1700/2100, so i thought it will work on my WIND network in canada. But it does not. Now trying to sell the phone, I found someone on kijiji who says he can modify it to work with WIND/MOBILICITY etc.
Below is the link:
http://www.kijiji.ca/v-cell-phone/c...-enable-modify-for-wind-mobilicity/1073319239

Is this even possible? Should I try it? Im fearing he will take original parts and replace them with fake chinese and say he was not successful in modifying.
Thanks!
anybody?

You can't gsm unlock it as it is not a gsm phone. It is CDMA.
I don't use Sprint, but with Verizon CDMA most the time you can use it with other CDMA carriers, besides the Verizon G2 (VS980) it has a sim card slot for LTE on their network and it is factory unlocked, just put in a compatible sim card and you should at least have voice and SMS working.

Oh sorry apparently the LG ls980 does have a sim card and there is some people working on unlocking it and some claim to have done it, goto here I'm not saying this works, but it looks promising , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655133

Hello fellas, I have the LG V20 AT&T phone and I want to be able to use the sim of any network carrier of my choosing and I’ve been told that it's next to impossible to unlock AT&T phones unless you have the stock locked Rom and if I will flash unlocked Rom the phone will be sim free. Would that be correct If that is correct, my question is: Does anyone have unlocked Rom from this phone? At this moment when I insert different carrier sim the phone ask for 8 digit sim network unlock put code. any guide for it or someone with the knowledge to do it or someone pointing towards the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

From my understanding, and at least on Tmobile, you have to ask the carrier for the sim unlock code. Your phone has to be paid off if you bought the phone through the carrier. This is independent of the rom used. Check this out: https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/#/

Since you are being prompted for a actual unlock code.you do infact have at&t and NOT t mobile device with their garbage unlock app and process.simply look for a unlock code for a "lg v20 h910" or "lg v20 at&t unlock "on ebay.all the other cell unlock sites are a rip off. Codes are pretty cheap like 2 bux or so.now if you had a t mobile device you would have had to jump through a lot of hoops to get it unlocked.luckily you dont.

it should ask for code automatically after rebooting with different carrier sim, if not - then you should use network unlock app for connecting to server and entering code
what is the difference between lg v20 sim unlock code and network unlock code? as I understand sim unlock code is 4 digit and network unlock code is 8 digit, correct?

Unlock code lg v20
Can you please share the site. I am trying to unlock my LG V20 and need help please.
Thanks
Any lg simunlock.com will be deleted as spam
To unlock an LG V20 (lgv20) on AT&T (att) without another network sim:
Dial *#06# on your device to find your IMEI
Get your unlock pin from att.com/deviceunlock
Dial or paste: 2945#*910#
A menu will popup. Choose network lock. Enter the unlock code AT&T gave you.
The phone will restart and be unlocked.
So I got to the unlock screen by entering:
2945#*910#
The 910 is the model number. My phone's Settings > System > About > Hardware Info lists my phone as an LG-H910
So if you're on another network, chances are you could use your model number to get through.
I've got an at&t lg G6. Today I got it unlocked through at&t, I'm wondering if it's able to be rooted now or if there's something else to prevent root?

Yeah, there is the locked bootloader that our hardworking developer friends are facing difficulties unlocking. so right now you cannot root. I even tried converting my AT&T LG G6 (H871) to H873 and LGUS997 but still couldn't get it rooted. But who knows? there could be a way out there.
