V20 H990 Single SIM
CAN be Rooted in near future
H990DS Dual SIM
Im not sure in near future

The V10 dual sim (H962) did get root, but to my knowledge, the bootloader never got unlocked. It'll probably be the same situation for the V20.

Seems like not root for us.
The thread does not include the h990.
Bummer.....

Take a look at the message right above, on that thread notice this message.
The more interesting question at this point is bootloader unlock. Given how generalized the Dirty Santa technique is, I'm pretty sure unlocking the H990DS bootloader is merely a matter of a little bit of time.

The lack of a bootloader unlock for the H990 so far is the reason I haven't got one.
The US996 is missing three bands that are used where I live (band 1, 28 and 40). But if the bands can be unlocked I'd consider getting one.

H990TR ?

Kardeş uzun süredir takip ediyorum bir hareket göremedim TR yi gören cevap vermiyor zaten @ahmetoguz8

Guess it is past time to add a mention on this thread (in case anyone subscribed and didn't notice other threads). Took a while, but root is available for the H990. The major limitation is it requires a publicly known KDZ which is old enough to allow DirtyCOW to inject the unlocked bootloader. H990DS and H990N have been shown to work, though the root isn't 100% stable (there are miscellaneous reports of difficulties and the procedure is complex). This includes bootloader unlock, so you can do pretty much anything you want.
The oldest H990TR KDZ is January 10, which is a few weeks too late. Someone might try it, but I'd give poor odds of success. I'd give good odds if a 10a-10d was known, but no one has pointed towards one.

Yes. The method is quite complex, but does work. There are a few reports of camera difficulty, but most people appear not to have any problems other than the instructions being complex.

I have successfully rooted and everything works except voLTE. So i am trying to flash another Indian firmware via LGUP. So do i need to follow the "Going back to stock:" instruction from the rooting thread ? Or should just flash the firmware via LGUP ?

Copying my question from the n00b thread.
Hi Guys,
I recently got a H990 DS and I'm loving it. I was wondering if root is possible for it? The Android patch level states June 1, 2017 and the build is NRD90M.
Thanks!

And funny enough, you look at the source of the information and an answer is readily available. That build can't be dealt with, but for most H990 devices earlier KDZ files are available, so downgrading the image allows the root process to proceed. Afterwords getting back to a current image isn't yet a science, but is doable.

Crossflashing LG H870DS

Is it possible to flash another firmware, let's say of the European model H870 and get it working or at least be able to rollback to the original firmware if it doesn't?
EDIT:Tried and I successfully flashed the H870 rom on my H870DS, although it's not anywhere close to usable. I was able to go back to my original rom without any problems whatsoever (using uppercut + lg up). Anyway my aim was to try and unlock the bootloader through this method. It seems that it only works on Oreo for the V30, hopefully will work on an Oreo unlocked rom for the G6. I'll try as soon as a KDZ is available.

Only DS Firmwares, if you really have DS. The DS was not officially released in Europe, so you dont get an european customised Version.
Use Uppercut and LGUP and download a firmware from lg-firmwares.com . This topic was communicated alot in this Forum, just use the "Search" Function.

I have the H870DS, someone recently unlocked the bootloader on a V30 by crossflashing to a rom of an unlocked V30, which bricked the phone but he was able to flash an unlock.bin file through fastboot commands which he created just by typing some 1's on a txt file and saving it as bin. The whole affair is a bit bat**** but other people succeeded with the method.
So that's why I asked, I want to flash the rom of an unlocked G6 and try the same thing.

You're very much on your own with that! Don't just assume because someone else has managed to somehow cross port/flash something... That it automatically means you can try something similar! If you brick your phone... You're on your own!..

Yeah I know it's very possible I will brick my phone. The whole process is a bit farfetched but still I want to try if it means I can unlock it.

I'd encourage someone who doesn't know what he/she is doing to ask for help, but that's me.
Thanks anyway.

Once we get an unlocked kdz we will have what we need to test. At this point we need a T mobile oreo kdz or an unlocked.

[LG G6] Trying to unlock the bootloader unofficialy

Sup guys,
Think it is my first post related to the LG G6. I have worked on LG L7II and LG G4 before.
Just having a little time on my hands. I have an LG H870DS and as you know LG does not support unlock.
I would like someone to provide me the following if you can (from an international H870).
DO NOT POST THE INFO HERE SINCE I WILL ASK DEVICE SPECIFIC NUMBERS.
This request is for someone that wants to unlock via LG Dev but did not unlock yet.
Please provide me with the following:
Copy with LGUP patched version of partitions (BEFORE UNLOCKING):
1. /cust
2./persistent
3./drm
IMEI, DEVICE ID from fastboot, unlock.bin
Copy with LGUP patched version of partitions (AFTER UNLOCKING):
1. /cust
2./persistent
3./drm
Ty.
ND

Also, just unlock.bin device-id and imei will help even if you are already unlocked.

@neutrondev i can give you the unlock bin of a h870

Hi @runningnak3d looks like you will have another friend here who will help on unlocking the bootloader. :good:

@neutrondev, are you still working on this? I can give you mine if you are.

Glad to throw in on this. I've got the h870 that I can't unlock and I'm pissed off about it.

Why doesn't it work to make a new bootloader, one that doesn't check for verification?

can someone send me these files?

Guys, any update? I am waiting for LG reply to my request to unlock my chilean H870 bootloader, but I don't really think they will do it.

I recently bought a G6 and just read about the inability to unlock the bootloader. So I am a newcomer to G6 affairs. Forgive me if fasting doesn't help. I found an interesting thread for another device. Perhaps, however, it will be an inspiration for someone.

In theory, something using the Qualcomm EDL mode is possible, but the files needed to do so are not available yet.

I dont understand your request clearly. You wrote that this request is for somebody who did not unlock his phone yet. But who did not unlock it he most probably dont have the unlock bin. (I cant imagine somebody got the unlock bin and left his phone locked).
So you need cooperation with members who got their phone unlocked and can provide you with the required data or you need somebody who can experiment with his phone?
By the way i have an LG G6 still locked.

Why can't you?
After LG ended support now it is clear that it was worth it.
For half a year I have been looking for an unlocked G6 on local exchanges, ready to pay a little more than for a locked one.

there was a misunderstanding in interpretation, i meant that if once i have the unlock files i dont keep my phone locked but start immediately unlocking and benefitting from it.
But i was confused because i saw a new post and i thought the thread is new then i got disappointed when i saw it was written in 2018
I am loosing hope, assuming about the activity here i dont think anybody is goind to develop a bootloader unlocking code, i have to use to live with it

Update on root lg g6

Hello everyone.I am only asking the progress (if any)on unlocking g6 bootloader on all variants because I havnt seen any discussion on this topic for a few monthes now. I own canadian H873. Have all developers just givin up or what?

AFAIK the H873 doesn't have a bootloader unlock or root, I believe only the US997 and H870 have unlocked bootloaders (maybe H872 has an unofficial bootloader unlock, I know there are ROMs for the H872), and I believe the H872, US997, and H870 are the only ones with root.... sorry

Yes but my question is anyone actually working on a solution or this a dead subject now?

There were some talks of devs trying to use the same method as the V30 root to other devices, I remember reading someone mentioned around September once everyone has oreo .. but I don't know what happened to the thread... I figured it wasn't a feasible method

Make DirtySanta unofficial unlock work on LG G5

Hi!
Since LG shut down their services to officially unlock boot in December 2021, we have to deal otherwise.
In the past DirtySanta was able to unlock LG V20 H990 independently. We need to expand this method for ours LG G5, including H850 and others. These phones are similiar and comes from the same period, it might be possible.

Good to know someone did it !
I'm stuck with locked bootloader and from my searches, LG does not want to deal with only a few people asking stuff about a 5 years old devices.
Keep me informed if there's some news !

I like this idea and would really appreciate bootloader unlock for H850 international models

I would love that as well, I'm trying to get a G5 H850 refurbished. It makes me reallly angry at LG, because without custom ROMs this phone is just landfill material.
Please kind developers,, help us save this phone from the trash!
