LG V20 H990DS Custom Rom - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Hi guys I will be getting a H990DS later
Want to check if the bootloader can be unlocked cause I think I saw the link for it and am I able to flash any custom rom like LinageOS ?
Thanks

Root is available via dirtysanta method.
LOS is currenty in WIP for the H990 model.

Using another kdz on LG v20 AT&T model

I have a question I was thinking of using the h915 kdz on my AT&T LG v20 variant. I saw the post about using patched lgup with common dll. I tried this method without success. Lgup kept saying that I it cannot flash h915 to h910. I cannot seem to get around this. My query is can I use another carrier kdz on my phone and which one should I use? And an someone assist with the process? By the way I am using LG V20 H810 currently on nougat. Stock firmware don't want to lose root, just want Android Oreo. Thanks in advance. Also is there an easier way to gain root besides dirty Santa. Seems so lo d and risky.

Use pathed LGUP file in thread:
[GUIDE][UNBRICK] Patch LGUP to unlock features & unbrick V20 (Variant mismatch fix)
and you will can to flash h915 kdz, or us996 kdz. Don't flash other kdz, you will loose your phone.
only one method to access root -- dirty santa.
You can just run follow the instructions in the root thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/root-h910-v10m-t3664500 on any version H910. Backup anything you need, including from the internal storage and SD card, before you start.
Follow the instructions exactly as written,until they tell you to flash the h910-10r ZIP. Go here, https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/h910-att-lg-v20-stock-oreo-rooted-t3846384 get the proper version of TWRP, download the v20h ZIP, download the proper mk2000 kernel, and the Magisk 17.1 ZIP,then flash the rooted v20h ZIP.

LG H910PR CLARO Puerto Rico OREO 8.0? NEED HELP

Hello everyone
Yesterday I got a steal deal for a brand new lgv20 in just 100$ but it's Puerto Rico model H910PR "CLARO" and it's stuck on December 2016 Update Android 7.0.
I tried to Ota update but it shows device is already on latest update.
Then I tried LG Bridge and it shows also same device is on latest OS.
I SAW MANY POSTS THAT ANDROID OREO IS OUT FOR V20 FOR A WHILE BUT COULDN'T FIND THE OREO KDZ ANYWHERE.
PLEASE SOMEONE SHOW ME SOMETHING HERE I AM GETTING FRUSTRATED. :crying:
Hello, I have the same phone, there is no Oreo update for us (in fact there's no update at all) unless you're willing to root.
if you're willing to root then just keep a dump of your partitions then root it using H910 root method and flash Oreo H910.
Any H910 rom works perfectly on our phone.

Thanks for reply
You mentioned H910 oreo works perfectly on 910pr so my question is all the radios works ?
I mean wifi/sim card/gps/mobile data everything works?
If everything works perfectly i would love to try it ASAP .
Are you running oreo N910 on your N910pr currently and which method you use to root ?
Do i have to flash N910 KDZ on my N910PR or i have to flash Custom rom from Twrp ?
Sorry for many questions i asked i just want to. Make sure before going any further.

Everything works fine, if it somehow doesn't, just flash your Modem, Modemst1 and Modemst2 from your partition dump and everything will work again, that's why you always keep backup.
I used this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/root-h910-v10m-t3664500 root method
Then I flashed Alpha ROM Oreo H910 (a debloated version of the stock rom) through TWRP.

I have received oreo opdate via ota 1.2gb but it's failing getting error during installation..
I bought a used v20 and i think its running modified rom nougat 7.0 .
It has all languages and unlocked hotspot tether and bluetooth tethering .
Thats why it's getting error via update because it has been modified.
I
If i flash your stock rom will i get ota update or no

Yes my 20g stock rom will update to 20h no problem.
If you want root those roms are their also
Be sure and flash TWRP again before you reboot if you need it all my roms overwrite TWRP with stock recovery

Thank you for your support
Please i want to clarify something .
I am reading many posts in xda and reddit that some users successfully converted from H910 to H915 or unlocked VS995 or VS996 i am not sure which 1 is fully compatible with H910.
I just want to know can i flash stock kdz H915 or whatever to my H910 directly from LGUP or i have to root and flash via twrp?
Also I've been reading that flashing via official LGUP won't work because model difference so i have to use LGUP PATCHED VERSION.
TIA

The H910 - H915 and US996 are essentially all the same device
The H910 cannot be unlocked with the stock bootloader
The H915 will allow you to flash a Engineering bootloader that is unlocked
The US996 can be unlocked through LG
I really don't recommend cross flashing except to install the unlocked bootloader
this is done with Patched LGUP
all the instructions are in the root thread I posted above

What's the best way to root H870?

I'm gonna upgrade in the next few months but I want to unlock the device's full potential by rooting. So how did you go about rooting yours?
Thanks!
It depends on the model you get. I have the H872 (T-Mobile) and followed this guide. Not sure how the other models gain root. You would need to research more but this thread suggests the H870.
Oh yeah forgot to mention I have H870
Unlock bootloader, install TWRP, install Magisk.
On H870, there's no need to flash any other rom first.

LG V20 910 Flashing changes?

I have a LG V20 910 (att version) that has never been flashed and last security patch was March 2017. Roll back is allowed. I am trying to install TWRP. I am currently looking over the guides mentioned in this forum. Is there anything new I should be aware of?
