LG G6 Thread/Device Maintainer searched! [LIGHT PATCH] - LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion

In order to support the LG G6 on XDA with the LIGHT PATCH we need to have a Thread/Device Maintainer before! If You would like to know more take a look right here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/light-patch-t3609676
Thanks in advance!

Can anyone recommend a program to flash this to the LG G6 ? Also a quick tutorial on installation for newbies like myself would be greatly appreciated. :good:

You can't flash anything yet until we get root. The bootloader can be unlocked but we can't install TWRP yet so this is just a placeholder

I thought the TWRP version you linked is not working properly. Are you saying that it works, now?
That TWRP won't work on some models, I have flashed it on my xt1710-09 and it got stuck on the initial TWRP boot logo.
Good evening. What is the root and hotspot status if you don't mind me asking? I'm thinking of picking up this phone tomorrow

afaik, they're all rootable except the verizon variant...
hotspot...? if you mean, using your data network as a wifi hotspot - unless there's some kind of issue hosting a wifi network while rooted, this device does let you host.

If you buy the phone directly from Motorola/Lenovo, you can put a Verison SIM in and then you can also unlock the bootloader. Takes longer but if you really want to unlock it, this would be the only way I know.

Hello, I have unlock my Moto Z2 play successfully.
I installed TWRP 3.1.1.0 as specified. However, it gets stocked on the Teamwin blue screen and can't do anything from there than reboot.
Any idea how to solve this problem. Thanks a lot

Sorry guys, I'm thinking about buying this phone with a carrier, so I will have 30 months of warranty covering everything. If I unlock the bootloader and flash the recovery I will lose it. Does anyone know how to find the factory image or backup the stock system (recovery and everything) to restore it to stock in case of problems? Thanks in advance
I have the XT1710-10 Dual SIM variant of the Moto Z2 Play, what should i do to succesfully root the phone. Can somebody guide me in detail ?
and i am not clear about this 32 bit and 64 bit twrp

Which way? What error?... You must go to Motorola's unlock bootloader page (@pizza_pablo kindly shared the link for you already) and >precisely< follow instructions. You can also search for "unlock bootloader Motorola" here or in YouTube. There's aplenty of video tutorials, plus every single Moto device since Moto G requires the very same procedure, so you can follow any. Good luck and don't cry; you'll notice that unlocking is the easiest part.
One more thing: I strongly suggest you to research as much as you can about the subject >first< (it clearly looks like the first time for you) especially on Moto Z2 Play rooting and very especially on Oreo rooting. There's a bit of confusion there.

Yerah...Verizon phones are always locked down, unless you have a Pixel. That's precisely why I dropped them like a bad habit. Well, that AND the fact that they are the most expensive cell provider out there.

It's a complete gsm/lte rsd flashable rom for xt1609 verizon.
Worked.. I can't make calls on start, but toggle 2g then 4g/lte fix that. thanks a million
Wow, awesome!!! That makes replacement devices INCREDIBLY cheap!! Thanks for this one ?
I understand this will essentially convert a VZW G4 Play into a GSM variant? Does this also unlock the bootloader & bring the possibility of flashing current roms from the GSM variants? I apologize if any of these questions are answered elsewhere.

Its just a gsm work around, no bootloader unlock ..
That's what I was assuming. Still can provide a $25-30 backup phone tho.

So does this make the XT1609 fully support all the bands the unlocked US version (XT1607) has? Or is the GSM unlock limited to only 2G/3G with those carriers?
Haven't checked it.. but its fully supported..

LG Aristo 2 Plus - Owner Needed

To anyone that bought a T-Mobile Aristo 2 Plus (not the standard Aristo 2 since I think they're different), let me know if you'd be willing to help me out here. I'm building a ROM for my friend's but he doesn't want anything unstable on it. If anyone would mind lending me a hand, I need someone to send builds to so they can test them out.
Thanks in advance!

You also need to update to much better firmware. By the time last Oreo was released, lots of camera improvements and new features added. Plus, rock stable.

For bootloader unlock and root, you at least TEMPORARILY need firmware with fastboot flash commands and early Oreo firmware where the bootoader exploit is.
That's what the WTF instructions are all about. To get everyone to that same starting line. Some variants (like VS996) don't have fastboot flash commands while others (like US998) do. So, some variants (like VS996) have to temporarily flash to US998 (Frankenstein), while the variants who already have fastboot flash commands (US998, H930*) just need to make sure they are on early Oreo.
After they all unlock bootloader with the code, then they can all return back to their carrier firmware (through TWRP flashable zips) or update back to newer firmware if they are already on their desired variant firmware.
When you read the WTF Instructions, it's a decision tree. If you have A, go to B. If you don't have A, then go C. Just pay attention to the scenarios that apply to YOU. By the time you get to Section 5, then EVERYONE is at the same place and can run the bootloader unlock code. But besides the actual bootloader unlock, there's also Section 7 Troubleshooting Tips. Section 9 for updating back to newer firmware. Lots of others stuff. It's a comprehensive document.
Read in a web browser, not an app. Apps like XDA truncate entire sections for some reason. Print out and use as a checklist.

Yes. I've been rooted ever since the update. I got an XT1941-4 but root is the same.
Either flash magisk patched boot through fastboot or boot twrp and flash magisk from there, but the last option would require you to format data first, which is why I prefer patched boot for rooting this device.
Ofc bootloader must be unlocked first.
