I bought a h815 sea and now it works with the nougat Edition from this forum.
Is there actually a way to officially unlock the bootloader? I can't believe that there is no chance to change the firmware to a version which will be updated in future.
I also got an European version. It's unlocked and driving resurrection remix actually.
Please help!
Maybe there is a possibility to change the firmware to an European to unlock?
Best regards

I've an H815, unlocked and both hardware and software unbranded, but I believe its an O2 handset (V10e-234-10, if that helps). I also have the bootloader unlocked. I've seen an Android 6 update is available for certain UK and European handsets and I'm just wondering if this handset is suitable for update? The update center and LG Bridge both say that the phone is up to date.
Is there a marshmallow update available for my handset version?

Thanks for that CraigHardy. I've a little project for today now.
O2 are really dragging their heels with this. We're now 4 / 5 versions into Marshmallow and still no sign of it for O2-UK.
Mine is the same handset, I flashed the V20D firmware linked in the Android Development forum, but it threw a message on every reboot saying the version wasn't matched. I'm currently using the V20E (Orange Romania?) ROM and it's absolutely fine (bar the carrier name in the notification area).

So you reckon using V20E is the natural progressor to V10E then? It would make sense. As I said, ther is no branding on the phone except, and I just found this out this morning, the stock web browser defaults to the O2 UK mobile website. I normally use Firefox or Chrome and I don't know why the browser opened at all
V20E installed and working great. But I'm not seeing much difference between marshmallow and lollipop. Cheers guys.

Same as me, I'm on an o2 unlocked G4.
I have been running euro v20d and cm13 with no problems.
Funny enough my o2 branded g4 prompted me to download the V20d-234-10 update today.
Hi Guys,
Is there any way to install TWRP/Custom ROMs, on the H815 TWN variant? I tried today to unlock the bootloader today, but it still says not supported (screenshot attached), let me know if any one has found a way to Bump the kernel like on the old G2/G3 models.
Thanks everyone =D
I have exactly the same issue unfortunately. I'd be happy with ROOT for now.
I hope someone in the community can help us out.
EDIT: root (and downgrade from MM if needed) for TWN: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/twn-root-question-downgrade-root-t3328465
Sorry but it's not possible now. There's lots of us waiting for Bootloader to be unlocked for TWN model H815... but currently impossible.
Luckily we can still have Lollipop with root.

And luckily phones like the Nexus 6P or almost any other competitor allows for bootloader unlocking unlike LG.
So if you get pissed off enough, that's an option
Guys i got my phone stolen a S5 which i recently unlocked, i was so happy after unlock it but... life sucks sometimes.
I want to know if it is possible to unlock the bootloader, offcially or nonoffcially, and if it is which version should i look for? build? Company?
ETC? and which models should i avoid. Thanks!
Eu h815 unlocked .... This one is bootloader unlockable
h811 can be unlocked too.
generally only the single sim g4 can be unlocked. h815 difference is that it can keep warranty even after unlocking.

Except in this case the EM version is the only one aside Italian TIM version which can currently be unlocked.
You don't have to take our word for it, check supported devices and see for yourself.

EM version is not international, it's European market version. It's available only for European markets so it's understood that it can be unlocked, each and every LG model in Europe were able to unlock up from G4
International are those versions which are selling outside of USA and European markets, namely for Africa+ AME, CIS, SEA, Latin AM
the Latin g5 840 doesn't even have the same 820 chip it's the 652 I guess jcadduono was wrong to when he made the International version twrp for 850 I included a pic so we can start working together on root also nimax rom we worked hard and had to drop the international version because ceaser or I had the International version we went to 20m 2 updates
I know the EM can be rooted, but is someone working on a bootloader unlock for the other G7 models?
I got in touch with TMobile to see if their version would be bootloader unlockable. They gave me the run around, told me to contact LG who hasn't responded. One thing I did manage to get out of TMobile was a firm denial that they requested the device remain locked its likely apathy on the part of LG holding us back at this point. ?I haven't dug into mine yet because I have more interesting unlocked devices to work on
Giving that the only European models can be unlocked most likely not but maybe a bug in the future.
Have saw a AWM model which flash to EM model and get its bootloader unlocked on a second hand trading website in China. The seller said he flash the EM firmware and change the IMEI in order to unlock his phone "officially"
I'm eagerly waiting for the US unlocked G710ULM. If this variant is unlocked, why didn't LG unlocked bootloader?, it's been almost 4 months of no news from LG. .Why giving special status to unlocked European models , since LG V30? If that's the case then LG G6 US997 could be the last US model enjoying root?
