Hey y'all,
Apologies if this has been asked before but I did a search for h873 and nothing came up. I see there's a distro of Lineage for the h870 and the us997. I'm up here in the Great White North and the h873 is the one available up here. Thinking about picking up a G6 but really want Lineage, I'm used to it on my OnePlus One.
Anyone have any experience installing either the h870 or us997 distro on an h873? Don't really want to re-sign a contract without knowing if it'll work.
Cheers and TIA

I'm wondering the same, I have the g6 and lg is just to slow to update it.
Hope someone in the know will comment on this.

The issue is the locked bootloader. LG will only unlock H870 and US997. If you don't have either of those devices for the moment you're not able to install LOS (or anything else)

What i don't understand about this though is that LG left the option in the Developer Tools section on the H873 to unlock the bootloader.
The "unlock bootloader" option IS there.
So what's the issue?
I know it's there cause i have the H873 lol

If any one of our Korean members here or a member of that forum and has plentiful amount of time to translate, please kindly help us and share anything useful for our handset on that site.

Su 880 rooting no success, please help
Hi, i have this phone too a LG SU880. i can't seem to root this phone. because it has no bootloader screen or download screen. and any of the trick using any key combination is useless. any one can provide a detailed tutorial with rooting this kind of phone. i already have the complete drivers and it is responding well with other root tool that i have, it's just that whenever the rooting process is finished, it still not rooted. and i've already tried using LG PC SUITE from one to the fourth version. still no luck. i even tried apk rooter softwares but still no luck. i've been rooting other phones like samsung galaxy 1 and sky pantech vega racer any variant but i am having a very hard time cracking this phone. anyone please help. Thanks. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Good day to all dev and to the community,
first of, i know this is not the right thread to post but im kinda desperate now.
i purchase a phone which is optimus ex su880 (nearest family is su660)
i tried updating using the LG updater but unfortunately i bricked my phone.
right now, i can no longer boot to S/w / normal mode and my only solution is to flash it via NVflash.
but my problem is, because of the lack of support for this phone. i cant find any image or .bat file to re install the ICS rom back.
now, my question is if we can create a .bat file/image from a Stock KDZ rom?
i can boot to APX but i have no firmware to flash.
your exeperties is highly appreciated.
i already spent 3 days looking for an answer but to no avail...hope you can enlighten me.
Hello all,
I decided to root my LG Optimus G Pro E98020h and got it rooted yet have had issues with the sd card as well as now seems I have locked myself out of it. I'm a newbie and have done much research yet am lost at this point. When i rebooted trying to flash the cyanogenmod 5.0 it brings up the LG logo and then it vanishes then comes back for a second or so and below it says security alert then shuts down. I need some help please! This is my only phone!
Thank you for any help.
Kristoco.

Not a huge deal, just follow the above post. It is what I would do, might sound overwhelming but the instructions are very detailed and clear. The hardest part will be finding the tot and dll for your specific variant ( shouldnt be hard , google it) and then follow the post. Hope it helps, there might be another means of getting past your problem, this is what I'd do though..

Thank you a bunch yet I cannot get my Optimus G Pro to turn on. It comes on and shows the LG logo, vanishes for a few seconds and comes back on then seurity alert is posted just below the logo and then shuts down. That is where I'm at so far. With no power on I cannot do anything. Any other ideas?

Hi. Can someone tell me if there's any way we can unlock the LG G4 H815P Bootloader?
I feel like I've wasted my money buying this phone. No Root on Marshamallow, No OTA updates, Bootloader cannot be unlocked.
It's 2016. Is no one out there working on this?
Thanks.
Pretty try much the same feeling I got...
Sent from my useless price of sh1t LG-H815"P" using Tapatalk
I don't think that's possible.
We can only hope for a pre-rooted flashable ROM now.
There doesn't seem to be either much progress or interest for this, which is a shame. I just got this phone, and I did some research before I bought it, but apparently I didn't research enough. I'm going to keep looking, but after a day I'm not holding out much hope. I'd be happy just to root so I can get Adblock, Xposed, and Arise (ViperEQ) on it.
I'm currently trying to see if I can find a way to downgrade to lollipop so I can get root, but I haven't seen anything that makes me comfortable enough to try and flash.
If anyone has any advice, I'm all ears.
wrong section and no. i dont think itll ever be sorry..

Yep, he reports quite frequently
Right now he is trying to port DirtySanta patch to solve a modem issue you have after unlock with UsU without flashing prepared files after to avoid the refered error.

Hello guys
I´ve been looking for a way to do it, and I have only found things about the European version and older posts saying it could be done, so I´m not sure if it even possible as for today
Can somebody explain me if the process can be done?
Thanks a lot
I've realized before LG stopped supporting the V30, the damnned LG G6 US997 USA unlocked could be the last G-Series to enjoy unlocked bootloader & root, I don't know why the European variants getting bootloader as soon as the newer flagships are launched! Before buying the almost useless G710ULM, Last year the European G710EUM is costlier than the ULM. Since I was on a budget, I could afford the ULM "sigh"! Even the latest European LG V50 & the LG G8 is bootloader unlocked!

Yes, it can be unlocked and rooted. As far as I know, the instructions have not made their way to XDA, and XDA doesn't allow linking to the Telegram group where they're posted. Just Google for a Telegram group for the LG G7 ThinQ and look for the instructions posted there.
Unlocking isn't without some risk, though, since it involves temporarily overwriting the bootloader with another one, but it reportedly works.
So I dug up the instructions and the associated files this morning, but before I pull the trigger on this: will LineageOS builds work after the bootloader is unlocked? Obviously they're tagged for the EU model in the other thread, but I figured I'd check and see if someone tried this already.

Tried to DM you the link, please let me know if that worked! Otherwise you can install Telegram and just search for LG G7. Should pop up right towards the top.
Any new info on this? The G7 hardware is great so I would love to put lineage or some form of aosp on it. Couldn't find the telegram link though, so I would greatly appreciate it if somebody could send it to me. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! I actually have the US unlocked model (lm-g710ulm) which does not support official bootloader unlock support from LG. I have heard a few people saying that there are unofficial methods of unlocking the bootloader and I wanted to give it a shot. Any new info is appreciated

Can I make my Korean G7 (710N) think its Canadian?
I bought G7 from Korea on eBay (G710N) and wonder if I can make it canadian? Its workable, just irritated by minor things like dual clock on lock screen always shows Korea, and miles instead of km is default for some apps, etc...
