Hey there,
Is it possible to root the G6 H870 without previously unlocking the bootloader? The goal is to have TB up and running.
Thanks in advance.

Why won't you unlock bootloader? This days with Magisk, You can pay contactless and use most banking apps and You can relock it in case of warranty.

It's unsupported by LG's key generator.
Sorry, I don't understand. H870 is an European version and it's supported. Are there unsupported versions of H870 as well?

Right, I forgot there is H870 for Claro as well. I'm afraid that there is no method for this moment.

You cannot unlock the bootloader because LG check the IMEI to verify that it's an European one, firmware doesn't matter.

Hello, Is it possible to unblock the bootloader on this phone model?
If it is an unlocked european LG G6 H870 yes, if it is carrier locked the answer is no.

There is carrier bloatware? If yes, it is carrier locked. If you want to know it if the bootloader is unlockable go to lg website for unlocking the bootloader and try to get the unlock.bin file.

Did you just post your S/N and IMEI?
According to the screenshot it's provider (Orange) phone. It means you probably can't root it.
Im having a LG G6 H870DS model.
But this model is not supporting for boot loader unlock.
So still will i be able to root my device by flashing superuser using TWRP?

Good question, unfortunately I don't have the answer. Let's wait and see if someone does. You may want to change your title to include the model number of your phone.

After doing some searching on google I found this link
I can say from experience that dirty santa worked with the US996 US Cellular version I have, once I went back to the orginal rom with LGUP. as mentioned in the link above.
I have succesfully done the dirty santa to change my canadian stock firmware to US996 to allow it to install custom firmwares but i had issues with LineageOS and went back to US996. Now i want to try a more recent of lineageos but without the bootlocker unlocking site i see no way to install TWRP as the system recovery
