I did a search but didn't see a comprehensive what to buy. I was leaning to the H870 and ordered one and they sent me an H872 (tmobile). Should I send it back and if so do I try the US997 or the H870 again?
If you want root and therefore another custom rom, you need the H870 or the US997 model.
The H872 cannot be root.
Sent from my LG G6 (H870)
Not LG.

Can someone please tell me the difference between LG G6 H870 UK Vs LG G6 H870 European version? Both of them are carrier free and unlocked. Does this mean both of their bootloaders can be unlocked?
https://m.clove.co.uk/lg-g6 . This website is selling LG g6 h870.
Do you think this one's bootloader is unlockable?
there was no need to open a second thread regarding this
I want to root my LG G6. But it seems I need to unlock my bootloader, however cant find any way to unlock it. Can someone help me with that please

Hello friends I have a LG G6 H870 for the Latin American market by the "claro company", when I try to follow the steps: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/how-to/official-lg-g6-bootloader- unlock-t3614719
To root and unlock my smartphone LG informs me that the bootloader key is not supported for my H870
The forums that I have looked for only speak to me about the LG method, and my question is?
Is there any other method? Or is there another way to root my H870 and install a rom like the Fulmics room 3.5?
regards

I'm sorry but there is no method atm to root your H870, only European H870 can be bootloader unlocked.

Thank you
I bought a Latin American G6 by accident; the seller didn't mention anywhere that it was from that area and I don't know who I'm more mad at- the seller or LG for being so f-ing finnicky with these phones.

Only the European H870 can be unlocked, it's written on the LG page: "LG G6: H870 for the European market"
So nope, you cannot unlock the bootloader of your G6, this means no root, no custom recovery and obv no custom rom, i'm sorry.
I saw a few posts talking about shifting G6 h871 (at&t) to us997 or h870, h872.
Is it really possible to shift to these versions and then have the option to root the phone?
