You need to provide your IMEI to LG in order to get the code to unlock the bootloader, so no - simply flashing a different kdz won't work.

LGM-V300L on H930?

Can I play SW with the Korean version of V300L on the European version of the H930 using LGUP and KDZ?
Do you need to unlock the bootloader?
Thank you...
EDIT: no.

possibly, if you have a custom version of the LGUP.exe.
On the LG V20, they did it BEFORE unlocking the bootloader so they could flash a KDZ for another LG V20 variant that allowed unlocking the bootloader with Dirty Santa. YES, I know Dirty Santa has been patched and does not apply to this phone. My point is they flashed a KDZ for ANOTHER LG V20 variant, using custom LGUP.exe-- BEFORE the bootloader was unlocked.

how to: unlock LG v30+ H930DS ?

hello,
I received today my new lg v30 + H930DS and I would like to know how to unlock the bootloader install TWRP ... because I find solutions for the H930G version but nothing for the H930DS
Sorry, it's not on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.

Either needs to be on the official LG unlock list or someone needs to find a bootloader unlock exploit.

not yet mate.. we're on the same boat here :laugh:
just wait patiently and hope for the best :fingers-crossed:
it is most likely never possible to unlock the bootloader of H930DS ? and it will never be on the LG list as suitable for unlocking the bootloader.
Why will LG do so? for a market is possible , and for others not?

Yes. There are variants that will never be possible. At least that has happened with the G6.
I did not buy the DualSim just for not having root... and I use 2 numbers :'(
Fellow Aussie here,
Same here peeps. Nothing yet. Sent an email off to LG in Australia, as well as LG Devs asking why it's not on the list. HOPEFULLY I'll get a response soon.

Is it possible to install a LG H850 europian ROM on LG H860?

hi
I was trying to install TWRP on my LG H860 but since LG doesn't provide official unlock.bin for H860 Middle east region, i was thinking what if i could install a LG H850-UK ROM on my LG H860 and then try the official way in LG developer site to get my unlock.bin for unlocking the bootloader.
here are my main questions:
1- Does this action will hard brick my phone or mess up with my hardware?
2- Does it discard my IMEI?(since i'm using a ROM from another region)
3- If this method was successful, can i install a custom OS like Lineage OS?
