I have LG G4 AT&T H810 running Android 5.1. I have not rooted it. It has all kinds of preinstalled bloatware about which I am not happy. I am looking to root the phone and install a minimum and smooth custom rom on it but a little research on Google and XDA Forums does not give about rooting and custom rom for LG G4 H810 variant so I am needing to ask in a post for same reason. Can someone who is using the same phone give me a good place to start and a link to well made custom rom. What are steps should I take before moving to install any other rom?
Sorry about title: G4 not G3.
Thank you to anyone who replies and helps this little guy.
Regards, Ahmad.
You can't install custom roms on the H810 variant, only on H815 and H811, because it requires to unlock bootloader and H810 can't be unlocked.

It can be unlocked but only unofficially and with some limitations

All I can say is wow, nice work :good: this is fantastic
AOSP does not boot up after i flashed in H810( I unlocked USU). Please advice me any other Abdroid 7 or 8 Rom. It will be great if you just link me for the ROM for H810.

AT&T have a nasty habit of preventing the unlock of bootloaders, this was the same with the Galaxy S5 and by preventing the unlock of the bootloader you can't (In most cases) get root as by having your device rooted the bootloader can't verify the firmware when loading it

Hi all,
I started working on the LG G5 a way back .. and now that we've got the device in stores I guess it's time to work all together to bring it up !
STATUS
- [02/04/2016] All the US Carriers/Sellers locked the bootloaders so NO TWRP possible and consequently NO CM possible
CURRENT GOALS
- Thought, all the Europe variants will be for sure unlocked so we need to prepare the sources for it
- Here is where all the sources are pushed https://github.com/G5Devs
ETA :
- The tree is made
- The vendor is made
- The kernel is made
TODO :
- Clarifying kernel sources
- Add the ramdisk to the device
- Split the g5 to g5-common and all the under variants
This thread is not a thread to release builds, it's about contributing all together into this bringup in order to get the nicest thing out of it when the bootloaders will become unlockable.
I hope we'll can work all together !
Does no twrp mean no roms at all and can certain stuff be done via adb?

It does unlock, but the DM-VERIFY is still presenting a no-go.
Evidently LG is using a custom type of bootloader.

only for that specific device(s) on HTC
HTC has a portal that allows you to unlock bootloader for that specific device (hence the need to copy+paste token to HTC's portal and get the unlock key)
no doubt HTC will void warranty immediately in their system when you input token
LG doesn't have this (yet? i hope)
Yeah, was just a thought. Haven't owned a LG in some time, been on the Samsung wagon. The G5 is on my watch list of devices I might get, I like the design. I'll try to see if I can find something that might be more constructive to the cause. The HTC link was the first thing I could think of that I've dealt with.
I see that LG has release a tool for the G4 and that's device specific and seems to work on the European devices.
Totally willing to contribute monetarily if this will help any developers out. I don't have much else but really want to help get this phone broken open and fixed up good!

Maybe when everything will be finished to improve module compatibility.
PS : NEWS : I'm mostly done making the variant specific trees and kernel. But I want the kernel to be clean.. So it's slow..
Any status updates? I'm following this stuff like a hawk haha
Been reading around trying to gather information
How do you test to see if your handset has the DM verify second bootloader lock?
I am hoping to get my UK unbranded unlocked retail H850 unit on Friday, so am happy to test any restrictons, but don't know how to check for this?
If I buy a g5 from best buy would it still have the locked bootloader?

Is there any progress on unlocking bootloader and/or rooting the verizon lg g5
I haven't heard much on progress for root in all honesty. However, if we can all download the KingRoot app and "try to root it" those devs will see it as requests for the phone to be rooted. And we are already at 172 at the moment so if we get more people to request this those devs will put more focus into it.
Sent from my VS987 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I doubt it. The LG G4 isn't even rooted yet (well those who have upgraded to MM) but you can downgrade to Lollipop which i haven't had luck in doing. Other Companies like ATT, Etc. have had great success in rooting their G5 but Verizon likes their Boot-loader Locked!
It seems the KingRoot group may start to work on helping us get root but the only thing is that the easy way to request is downloading the app and click "root" cause it'll fail but it sends a request ticket and I'm sure if we get more it'll get root a lot sooner.

Request ticket sent to kingroot.
Oh cool that's awesome. I don't know how many they need but we have gotten a lot but I assume we still need more. To be honest I'm no fan of waiting for our phone to go up on the bounty list and wait even longer but it's either the bounty waiting line or its KingRoot. But in order for KingRoot to work we just need people to download the app and send in their request.

There's a link for the official website. For anybody who finds the fake ones and doesn't trust it.
Sent from my VS987 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Also requested KindRoot, looks like we're at 350 ppl now. Though the fact that my old G4 never got rooted is a little worrisome.
355 requests now.
I'm going to be emailing people of KingRoot to see how much further we need to go to become priority. Also 405 requests lol

At the point your at if your okay with a custom rom do this. Install kingroot, it is known as bloatware but you will flash it after. Use flashify to flash twrp after that. Flash a custom rom like lineage and you can get the latest version of android and you can root that.
Hello XDA! I'm pretty new to rooting, flashing, etc. and I have a question for you guys. Today I successfully downgraded my LG G3 D852 (Telus) from MM to LP - 1st step from installing different ROM (LOS). I want to install TWRP recovery menu, but on their website there is only one for LG G3 D852 (Bell Rogers). So I'm going to ask here, if this recovery menu is going to work on the my exact model-carrier phone. I really appreciate any help you can provide!

I tried it 2nd time and now it works without any problem. I just want to ask you, if I can install Lineage OS on my phone? And I'm a bit confused which version of LOS to use, since the TWRP menu I have downloaded with the GUI program was for D852G (with G).
