I've been digging around on how to root my phone.
I've tried unlocking the bootloader on the LG developer site, but this error comes up
"Unfortunately, your device(Taiwan , (TAIWAN) )does not support unlocking the bootloader."
So I guess this method is a no-go.
Are there any other methods for rooting my phone?
I found a oneclickroot but I've never used one before and don't know whether its trustworthy.
same here. Is there someone who unlocked the bootloader of this variant ?
Same
I just received my G4 yesterday and found it's a v20c-TWN-XX
Actually looking for a rooting solution on all forums i know...

All,
I'm having issues unlocking my H815 LG G4. I enter the proper IMEI and device information into the location on LG's developer website to unlock it but then I get an error which I have attached.
This has been discussed many times before.
You need a region specific H815 in order to unlock your bootloader. A specific EU variant is the only one that LG supports unlocking right now. My Taiwanese specific G4 is not supported. If you'd like, you can msg LG and pile on the requests to unlock all H815 variants, but I believe they said they wouldn't.
Good luck!

Any Ideas on how to root without bootloader unlocked?
Im having the same issue the only difference is that my LG G4 h815 is the EU open market variant which is the one that can only unlock bootloader im getting the message saying everything is correct but cannot unlock bootloader, i contacted lg support dev, the answer from them is that i cannot unlock my G4, this is bull**** i pay i want full control of my phone. hope someone can come up with a way to root this device without unlocking the bootloader just like with the G3 model.
Returned mine and bought another straight from a site in the UK. Went without a hitch.
After trying several tutorials, i found out that i cannot unlock my bootloader. I thought that my 815p could pass for an 815 but no.
I also looked for specific info on rooting this variant but it seems its not common enough. Can someone direct me?

use the same method as 815 EU. i'm using 815P from south africa and you can root it so easily with the low effort root. choose the 815 EU/international command

I get what you are saying, but all the guides i saw mentioning the 815 EU do the unlocking bootloader step. When i go to the official lg site after getting the info from fastboot, i get a message along the lines of "your model is not supported".
Can you link me to the guide you used, if possible? How did you unlock your bootloader?
Root not bootloader unlock

not unlocking bootloader... your heading says "Need help rooting". you can root the H815P but can not unlock the bootloader. i'll paste the link for the low effort as they came up with it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
only for Lollipop (android V5)
rooting it is exactly as the H815 EU version.
get the Send_Command files
get the rooted system.img
connect your phone
type in the commands to verify connection
type in the dd commands for H815
your done and phone is rooted and can install all Lollipop ROMS

great thread.. thank you! Did it work for you?
it did
Guys I was able to root the H815P: First I flashed it with 5.1 (it had android 6), and I flashed it with H815.. not the "p"..
Then I was easily able to root it with that dd command.. smooth!
Hello comunity! Well I got a Lg G4 h815p, in the software info it says V10a_12-JAN-2016.
I updated the phone few times via OTA Upgrade. Its Telcel variant, my question is...
V10a is qfuse v0?
In that case, should i still wait with my actual version to a bootloader unlock exploit? (I've heard that lg g4 with qfuse v0 have more probabilities to find an exploit to unlock the bootloader).
Also i got another question about flashing KDZ's , well i find in other forums people with H815P flashing EU versions , so in that case, can i flash the EU version to get the official unlock ? (Maybe it change my device id?).
Hello there, i got an LG G4 h815 few days ago, when ever i get new device first thing i do is root it, and it was always very easy for me.
with this g4 i got problems, try to go to LG website and unlock bootloader, it say i cant cause my device is h815 taiwan, so i read more in google and understand official unlock is only for the euro devices.
so i google more try to understand how can i unlock it unofficially, and found nothing, as well as try to google for a way to root it with out unlock bootloader, and also coulnt find.
im sure im missing something, cause i dont think its possible that there is no root for an old device, any help on how to root my phone?
thanks a head.
Lots of people here have H815 TWN...please can some one make a specific thread for rooting or installing xposed on Taiwanese H815 without the risking of bricking or bootlooping the device...meaning successful rooting ...

unfortunatelly you cant unlocked till today.. maybe later if someone can do it... but you can add root to locked bootloader... i have not tried this method.. i tried similar to h811 tmobile.. but its the same procedure.. mine is unlockacle but i dont want to with the bootloop issue... unlocking bootloader voids warranty. and root too but you can always try the kdz that disables the big cores and undo the root..

thank you, i found the root for locked bootloader, i done it, but its only for 5.1 android, and i still cant flash roms, only one rom witch they make for locked bootloader, so after all the process went back to unroot 6.0 androis >:
hope some1 will break this bootlock .
Hey guys.
Im trying to unlock my booloader... LG G7 LM-G710EM
I have tried using the official LG method
LG Developer
The official developer resources for LG products and platforms.
developer.lge.com
and even got the IMEI and device-id from my bootloader
The website gives me an error
"Unfortunately, your device does not support unlocking the bootloader. Your account will be locked if you enter the wrong information more than 7 times"
so i guess this method is not working for me.
i understand there are other "unofficial" ways to unlock my bootloader
but i am drowning in old obsolete tutorials...
is there any definite way to do this?
greatly appriciated!
