[Q] Root/Bootloader/Rom Model Confusion - LG Optimus G (International)

Hi Guys,
I'm having a little difficulty discerning what belongs to what in Optimus G Development etc.
The model I have is the LG Optimus G E975K (As sold in Australia by Telstra.)
Which (If any) of the root methods are suitable for this phone?
Is bootloader unlocking possible?
What (if any) roms are compatible?
Which order would things need to be applied?
You may have noticed by some of my questions, but I've been a little out of the modding game since (Ugh!) Windows Mobile 6.5.

LG US991 info please...

good day/evening XDA community,
I have a question about the LG G4 US991 variant.
Is it the same in terms of development, modding, rooting etc.?
Can you guys shed some light as to what is the major difference compared to the H815?
Can the H815 developments, rooting, modding etc. work on the US991
thanks in advance guys...
*bump* i am wanting to put cyanogenmod on my LG G4 US991 (US Cellular variant bought unlocked at Best Buy for use on TMobile network which works just fine) but also cant find any info over the H815. Help?

If you are still on Lollipop, it can be rooted with Low Effort root and you can install Xposed through Flashify. That's it, since there's no bootloader unlock. If you're on Marshmallow, you can't root.

I'd swap out your US991 for a T-Mobile H811 (which comes with an unlockable bootloader out of the box). You can only unlock the bootloader on International (non-US) H815s and the T-Mobile H811.
Hey ecaslak, I accept that deal. I have a two weeks old g4 US991 and I happily swap with yours.

Doubt about unlocking the bootloader of H815P

Hi, i have been searching over this page, and some others pages, but havent find anything about this model, "h815p", just some threads around july of 2015 and in that time it was imposible to unlock the bootloader,, but it has been 6 months and i have no ideas if is it possible now or not..., any suggestions?
Email from lg directly yesterday they have no intention of unlocking any other g4s other than europe model ok they say ls991 sorry but im sure that means all
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in LG mobile devices.
Currently, you can only unlock bootloader for LG G4 for the European market with model number H815.
And we have no plan to support bootloader unlocking for LS991.
If there are any changes to the supported devices, we will let you know via our website.
Best regards,
LG Developer site Team

Whether I buy LG G4 H818P or not?

Hello guys, I bought a LG G4. The seller today said that they have sent a H818P Dual SIM version. I already have an G4 H815 European Version and I wanted exactly the same one to easily unlock bootloader, root new ROM flash etc. after warranty period.
Should I send it back or should I accept it? What do you suggest to me? Will it be easy to find custom ROMs for H818P in the future (2 years later).
Also, is there any significant differences between them especially for my country Turkey? I have read some posts about rooting H818P with H815 ROMs. Are they easy to cope with? Or is it better to send it back.
Thank you beforehand for your suggestions.

Question regarding rooting Unlocked T-Mobile LG G7

Hello everyone, I am unaware if this is possible, or not. If I have a Lg G7 that I've bought outright from T-mobile, and can be used with any phone carrier, am I able to root it as an unlocked factory unit? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Only LG g7 from Europe (g710EM models) can be bootloader unlocked. Also the T-Mobile model has been known to cause problems with whatever custom development is going on here.
As a normal stock phone it's ok. It's just not development friendly

Custom Roms

Hey Developers and Enthusiasts,
I'm new to the forum and wanted to ask around if anyone has had any luck in flashing the LG G8 ThinQ with either Plasma Mobile or with LineageOS. I'm looking into both and have only seen up to the LG G4 but am wanting to either help someone look more into it or venture into creating a custom ROM myself. Any help or direction is appreciated. Happy Developing!

Since the bootloader cannot be unlocked on the G8 that isn't possible at the moment.

It'll be possible at some point, but don't expect anything too soon.

The OEM is able to be unlocked on the Sprint g8 I have, but I am having trouble accessing the bootloader menu. Is that what you mean by it's not able to unlocked or is there a way to access the bootloader menu that I am missing?

That option doesn't mean bootloader unlock.
The boot loader for the G8 is able to be unlocked by using a G850 engineering abl_a.bin file . https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...nlock-and-magisk-root-using-firehose.4221793/
There is an LG G8s Lineage 18.1 rom but it does not work on the G8, I am looking at it and it gets system ui freezes, wifi doesn't turn on, and there is a sim pin unlock requirement, other than that other functions work on my G8: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-lineageos-18-1-for-lg-g8s-thinq-betalm-wip.4219111/
I am looking for different roms since the lineage doesnt work but am not finding anything.
