unlocked US996 LGV20 confused with questions

I currently have the LGV20 H918 from T-Mobile and now I have the US996 version of the LGV20 to play with.
How can I determine if this version is the one from US Cellular or not?
if it is not the US Cellular version, where can I get the older and latest KDZ?
[*]Can I root the latest software version using https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/h918-recowvery-unlock-v20-root-shell-t3490594 ?
can unlock bootloader using DirtyElf
is it possible to unlock the bootloader without going through the LG site, thus voiding the warranty?
What's the easiest way to clone everything I have now on my H918 over to the US996 so that I can use them interchangeably?

Unlocked verizon upgrade and rooting

Hi I just bought second hand verizon galaxy s7 flat SM-G930V , the sim has been unlocked so I can use any sim card on it, it runs android 6.0.1 , baseband version is G930VVRS4APH1, I want to root it, install xposed and debloat it, my questions are:
1-if I follow this method, does it affect the baseband, I mean will my sim still be unlocked? or do I have to unlock it again?
2-if I upgrade to nougat does it also upgrade the baseband, and will it also relock the sim? if so can I unlock it?
thanks
3-which one should I flash the V version or U version? I mean Verizon fw or Unlocked fw

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I would go with the u firmware also if you want Xposed then you have to be on Android 6.0.1

Unlock LG v20 Android Oreo

Good morning,
I need to know who knows how to Unlock the Lg V20 with android oreo the version of Sprint model LS997a :crying:
if you mean unlock as in unlock the bootloader to root, you do not. You thank sprint for making it so locked down that their model has been unrootable for a long long time. NO, you can't simply go back to a rootable version, physical fuses preventing that have been tripped.

[Q] Unlock Bootloader on Converted US997

So I have a US997 that has it's bootloader unlocked and while the current available custom ROMs are great, they aren't very stable for me and some features don't work like they should. LG hasn't officially released Pie for the American model yet (hopefully yet isn't never) so I attempted and succeeded in converting my US997 into a Canadian H873. Though unfortunately, I lost my unlocked bootloader. I then went back to official US997 software and the bootloader was unlocked once again.
Is it possible to use say H873 firmware on a US997 while keeping the bootloader unlocked for TWRP and Magisk? I tried unlocking it again on H873 firmware but due to the way it was flashed, it wouldn't get detected by my PC in ADB or Fastboot mode, so it may or may not be possible to do so that route.
Thanks
