Can you guys check and tell me if this is real? is there a way to root ls997 oreo now that I do not know?
kindly let me know.
thanks in advance.

Looks like that's just for SIM unlocking the phone. The LS997 is known to carrier re-lock itself when upgrading to Oreo. Software version ZVC is still ARB1, so it's still unrootable as far as I'm aware.

Question on how to upgrade official firmware on Rooted device

Hi,
I have rooted P10 Plus L29. Currently, it is on B133 and I want to update to B162. I did some research on how to update and found several methods (Link ).
I used HWOTA method when I update from B131 to B133 but unfortunately the bootloader is locked again after updated. To unlock bootloader, it will wrap all data from the device.
So, I just curious about the other method whether it will lock bootloader or not. Any suggestions on this?
Imho it is not possible to update without relocking bootloader.

Is it safe to update from Nougat 7.1.1 with bootloader unlocked

Is it safe to update from Nougat 7.1.1 with bootloader unlocked to oreo without softbricking the device or do I still have to lock the bootloader and then update?
Thanks in advance.

oreo update (KDZ) works in LG G6 H870?

I know it might be a trivial question, but recently I saw a new update for the G6 OREO (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/lg-g6-oreo-g600-download-t3784263) , and was wondering if I can flash this update on my H870, or am I going to take a risk of brickning my G6?
This is for G600 variant so obviously you can't flash it.
Sorry for the noob question, it's probably been asked on here, but have not been able to find a solid answer. I have a US Cellular LG G6, which by now I know bootloader can't be unlocked. But, is there any way to update to Android Oreo? Currently on Android Nougat 7.0. thanks in advance.

h910 unbranding? US996 conversion possible?

Hi.
Is there any way I can change the firmware/software of my h910 V20 to H915, US996, F800 or other non-carrier-branded stock firmware?
Pls recommend a good guide if you know one.
If yes, can I still update the phone to newer versions of the firmware I switch to (eg future Oreo releases for the firmware/device version I converted into), or would I have to flash something in between?
Please advise, I'm relatively new to this.
Thanks in advance.

Relock G6+ on OREO

Hi,
I've got a Moto G6 Plus I need to RE-LOCK the bootloader. The device has OREO 8.0 and not PIE 9.0. So after reading about problems relocking the bootloader with Pie, I prefer to stay with Oreo until I can do the re-lock of the bootloader.
Please, someone has a guide about CORRECT relocking process for Oreo?
Thank you!
