Question from a novice about LG G5 from HKG

Hello,
hope somebody could tell me if rooting an HKG version of LG G5 has been accomplished successfully.
My G5 H860N (the dual sim version) has Android 7.0 and SW ver. V20f-HKG-XX Kernel 3.18.31

Besides of rooting I'd like to flash LineageOS hopefully, but I never did it before so I'd like advise from experts.
Has anybody managed to switch the camera mode on LineageOS?

Thanks for any help you might give me,
V.

[Q0UOTE=tusker;70447324]Hi guys,

OK, I have managed to get LGUP to recognize the phone.

1) Load up regedit, and put in a "default" model: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\LG Electronics\LGUP\Model
a) Add DLL_PATH String and choose one of the DLLs that you have installed
b) Add MODEL_NAME String and choose your model, ie, H850
2) Load up LGUP with UPPERCUT and with your phone plugged in, and it should detect as what you put in MODEL_NAME.
3) Disconnect the USB, and then reconnect. Wait about 30 seconds, and then it should show the real model name
4) Click on Start, and it should allow you to flash your phone.

Cheers,

So it is nougat compatible! now we need to approve that it works every device with nougat!
I think we should make a comparability list, like



For example

Yep, the aboot partition checks to see which bottom you are running. I flashed to H850 aboot to my device, so I got the same error. My H850 bottom should be here within the week, so I'll let you know how it works for me :D
Hi all, I have a question regarding where the bootloader lives. After reading through the thread, it seems that a couple of people have successfully gotten KDZ files associated with the H850 model onto their H860 phones using different modules/bottoms and tricking LGUP by tweaking the Windows registry. Once that KDZ is flashed successfully, does that mean that the device is now bootloader unlockable using the H850 method? At that point, is it effectively an H850 with slightly different hardware? I suspect not, and that the bootloader is a lower level structure and persists despite any flashing, but I just wanted to check here for confirmation.

As always, thanks for all the hard work.
Short answer, no. If you look back some comments, @honnestly Annoying exactly did that on his sprint lg g5 and still can't unlock his bootloader the "normal" way.
una consulta gente del foro, disculpe que escriba castellano, no se nada casi nada de ingles, le hago una consulta este método funcionaria para un h850ar?porque lo he intentado y termino en triangulo rojo siempre.muchas gracias
My brother went to turkey for job he bought me g5 when he was returning.i need to root my tr model g5 but i didn't find it anywhere .i have got samsung gear s and i want to pair it with my h850tr .about this problem:first of all i need to change the name h850tr to samsung i9000 vs.But it needs bootloader.i hate using phone without root because of there are 40 app in phone but 30 of them are unnecessary.It makes phone slower.i did not know that tr models are unstable about :)this.sorry about my english it is little bit imperfect
ohhhh ,, this Topic is life saving if root works good without problems (SD+Camera+Lag) , or if works on android 7 ..

waiting updates !!! thanks man ..

if you need testers , i have H850 non EU , bootloader locked, antirollback 0,
30$ for gaining full working root / bootloader unlock on non EU H850 via paypal.
Nope.
This is already known. The problem is we have a locked bootloader, hence can't do anything before we find a way to unlock it
