Hey, My question is since we know marshmallow requires an unlocked bootloader for the boot img can users with root access change the img while inside android. This may be extremely silly however I am not sure if it is possible. Also is the bootloader unlock/lock status kept in a file or somewhere where we can access it with root, if so could that file be modified.
Why would marshmallow require an unlocked bootloader? And no, it is not in a file somewhere...
MM requires unlocked bootloader for root.

yes yes....every members with some good knowledges have unsucess because good encryption of LG and unknown parts...
theses threads with the bounty and this new other on "questions&troubleshouting" have very hard strongs problems, totaly impossible to solve... ( i congratulate and thank them to try ! fabulous ! )
but for root ,maybe by making a modified/rooted MM kdz ???? because we can root a LP with this loked bootloader ....and we can flash all of the firmware with lgup (kernel,system...)...
I don't know ...if it's so easy as that ,the solution would already exist...

Hello all i just order my G3 and as a nexus user for years i wanna ask some questions just to be sure what will i do after my device came to don't brick it...
So did the G3 (internasional) have locked bootloader??Did it need to unlock it for root and custom recovery??
If its unlocked can towelroot root the device and don't mess with a bunch of bat files and downloads etc etc??
If anyone came from nexus community they sertiny know franco and faux did anyone uses their commits to build a kernel if now who do you think is a great developer for G3
and also this lollipop versions that exist are they official,leaks,soak tests???thanks sorry if those questions are asked before and also excuse me for my english!!!

G3 is easy to root and bump (install TWRP)
Bootloader is locked and Bump gets around the lock.
Root using the correct tool for your model check original dev section
Flash Bump'd twrp using flashify and your golden
The lollipop is official for most devices except carrier specific which i'm unsure about

A lot of your questions can be answered via the FAQ thread. Have a read there. It's what I read through to determine if this was the right phone for me (rootable, custom ROMs, etc):

Bump is the workaround of locked bootloader ? So flashing let's say twrp from official site will brake the unlock?

I've got to agree - I bought mine from Value Basket, advertised as an EU version but the IMIE is for a Singapore carrier and because of that I can't unlock the bootloader, hence I'm stuck with a fantastic phone with good, but not brilliant firmware and no way to flash my favourite CFW's.

Easy there! That's not how things work around here. Also, it's not that developers wouldn't try. People worked on it and may still be working on a solution. Maybe, next time you buy a new phone, make sure you don't spend hundreds of dollars on a device you can't unlock or where it's uncertain whether it'll be unlockable or not. After all, you're a "flashaholic".
Shameful post(op)
Well thank to you sir for contributing and not asking for anything.

I feel your frustration, though (misguided), you need to read a bit about unlocking the bootloader for many of the G4 models.
You are not the only one that feels as you do. You certainly do not need to be rude about your frustration, furthermore blaming people on XDA is wrong. XDA users had nothing to do with locking the bootloader.
BTW you are correct there is a donation thread somewhere.Why not learn how to develop and be the one that could do what no other could:good:
There are enough rant threads already out there, no need to keep this afloat.
PS thanks for being a member of XDA and I look forward to your development
I tired to find way to unlock bootloader for H815P

No need to see into the future. You just need to think harder. LG is known for locking down devices. Why bother with the risk of ending up with a locked down device? Besides, I'm not dragging you anywhere. You just like the feeling of being the victim. Get a grip already!

Well see I know that lg lock some device's I have had a few lg device's g3,g4,gflex2 and now just made a MISSILE out of the g4 because sick of being told that there may be a unlocking available for the g4. I all so sick of people saying that the only root for g4 is root injection it would not work for me so now only got my gflex 2. So very soon I will look at the g4 again now knowing what I need to look for.
The way I see it with out boot loader unlocking there is no root for the g4........ok ranting over good night

Well the root works really well, though you have to be using L. Even xposed works with flash fire, so really its not a big deal. If they at least root M I will be even happier.
Of course unlocked bootloader would be ideal but I am happy with root.

Why do you assume I don't know about custom roms? I do know a lot and tried many of them on different devices. Some are great some are buggy.
Truth is LG rom is very stable and with root, exposed, launcher I can get it very close to pure android experience. So root is still very important.
Don't get me wrong, I still want an unlcoked bootloader.
Unlocked bootloader will extend the life of the device.

hi !
Here on this G4 section i don't have seen "good" discussion about this fabulous tool ...and NEVER devellopers feedbacks.
here on xda on others threads ,many members have said tha this tool is great and innovatibe because he could flash what we want (kernel ,roms...etc...) but without unlock bootloader and no need at all a custom recovery like twrp (original stock woukd be good fot that)
Providing to a LP rooted and bootloader locked ...
I ask myself what happen if we flash Imperium MM ( there are the kernel and the system on the zip file of the develloper )......or a custom rom ???
For the future ,we must hope for this sort of innovative fururist tools (and hack methods) instead of all olds traditionals tools (cwm ,twrp,fastboot....) more and more out-of-date ineffective ,useless with news android version full securised and bootloaders more and more definitively locked ,otherwise it's the begining of the end of root , customs roms&kernels , ports of projects (zip ) ......etc....or we have to recycle old S4 and note ,htc one ,kg g2/g3....
You didn't understand how the new security feature of 6.0 works..... It doesn't depend on the method cause it just checks for changes and if you change something, it won't boot. That is a rather simple explanation but it's enough.

That's what some of the people say...
It's useless to be angry or fatalist...it not help at all the evolution (and mentalities evolutions too) of the technologies.
Chainfire always have shown us the example .
The future is not still well underway...we have to trust to news hacking methods with differents news ways ...
maybe never and it's the end....maybe we will witness to a big revolution (maybe with flashify/flashfire powerful evolutions)...

what did chainfire show us? Systemless root requires an unlocked bootloader, flashfire can't pass the unlocked bootloader and never will cause it doesn't break the security and it's not intended to do it. Please stop you bull**** talk about what might be done in what ever future.
Can some mod close this please?
you have a real sh** bad behaviour . Its pathetic and total disrespectful......and no knowledges for answer .
xda is not YOUR forum...you never have to "judge" members here.. stay in your place.
Okay, go try to flash an unsigned kernel and tell us the result.
Flashfire and flashify will not work until a bootloader unlock or workaround is achieved. I wouldnt say never for either but the way things are going rite now for most g4s. Not lilely.

you did ask the exact same questions in various threads and always got the same answer "it will not work" and "i flashed a rom and ended up in bootloop" and now you open a thread with these questions and you wonder why some people are annoyed by that?
"pretentiousness"? really? i just tell the facts nothing more and the fact is if we don't unlock or bypass the bootloader, nothting will happen, no matter what app you use cause the security is in the system and the app runs on top of the system.

Like with flashIfy it dosnt unlock g3. All it does is flash a modified twrp image that g3 thinks is official aka bumped. Now flash fire. I havent flashed any roms but in therory of u had a stock system only zip as of rite now it will work. No boot image no kernal. Stock system zip only. I flashed exposed with it. And i also flashed the camera mod for 60fps. Both worked. For either flashify or fire to there still has to be a sevcurity exploit found. G2 loki and g3 bump is all they were is. Any image we flashed lg thought they haf a valid signature. That was the exploit on them. Of coarse not on g4. Again. Once we get an exloit flashify should flash twrp to recovery parts. And from there roms from recovery. So technicly it is impossible to use them at this time. But ive been taught in life that nothings impossible.
Hi all beauty?
Because no attention to lg g4 dual sim?
Even if they are roms based on the stock would be very good, I realize that the H818P has nothing just a rom that was only updated in October and have nothing, pay so dearly for a good device and has nothing or a little attention developers forum we also need a bit of attention to our device and the Brazilians are suffering from it.
Please help us.
I'm grateful.
My device looks like a Samsung, receives nothing '-':fingers-crossed:
This is the single rom we have: /

The f500 device is compatible with the h815 rom.
There is nothing to discuss about. F500 'can't' flash ROMs as it can't have its bootloader unlocked. I've heard that people convert their F500s to H815 but unless you can make it a H811 then there's nothing to talk about, as H811 doesn't require key to unlock the bootloader.(not sure about Nougat, as many things have changed)
Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk
Just wait a bit for unofficial unlock to be released any moment now! And then you'll be able to flash at your desire, be it root, mods, ROMs, kernels etc.

Yea the unofficial unlock is on its way. It's already proven to work on h810,h812,ls991,vs986,h815
I still need a f500 user willing to test it so if you want to unlock write me a PM.
