I made this post because I wanted to see if there was any RS988 developer news, ROMS, Kernal, anything
RS988 Developer News
- Thread starter ZLM1229
- Start date
It looks like the RS988 will get Android 8 Oreo... But it looks like it will take a while as with the Nougat update

I got the exact same e-mail. Hopefully we do get Android 8 Oreo.
It seems I have an OTA... Im gonna be on wifi tomorrow Ill fill everyone in
On paranoid Android and so far it's stable. But video recording seems iffy. Haven't been able to get a video to save. But I'll be trying different camera apps
Just bought this phone. Gonna see what I can do with it in the next few weeks. I see we need a better TWRP port, I'll try and work on that in the next few days.

Last time I'm gonna post here til I make an official release. Here is tonight's build, screen tearing is fixed and I've been starting to upstream the kernel to the latest and start adding my tweaks to it.
MUST BE BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED AND TWRP INSTALLED

Would quick charge be working or is it still locked to 350ma? Just checked the official thread and the bug is coming from lineage os and seems to be a kernel issue.
I've been diving into that issue, haven't figured it out yet. But I'm sure it won't be long.
Hey,
Just bought a G5 RS988 and am struggling to find a good guide for bootloader unlock. I know that's not quite what this thread is about, but I'm sure many others will look for it here. Anyone able to give me a link? Or, if you'd rather, pm me and I'll delete this post if you feel it doesn't fit.
Thanks!
Edit:
Nevermind. Found a generic one here that worked: http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryId=CTULRS0702
Where are you getting TWRP from? All I can find is this as it's not on the TWRP site: https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/lge/twrp-3.0.2-1-rs988.img
Also, is this a good thread to use for rooting? https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/root-rooting-rs988-t3580660
I'm struggling to find promising answers to any of my searches, and there certainly isn't a thread that contains a valid list of all these useful tidbits.

The links you have will work ok... There is no official TWRP yet that I am aware of just as there are no official ROMs (that I know of) there are however unofficial Lineage and Paranoid Android ROMs, and unofficial TWRP
There is a tool from LG that will preform bootloader unlock
I hope this helps
Thank you for all your doing for the RS988 when I made this post I honestly didn't think anyone would care. I thank you for what you are doing and I can't wait until we have official ROMs and TWRP for the RS988
You're welcome. Probably not gonna be making official releases seeing how this is kind of a weekend thing. I work construction and have a newborn so time is not something I have sadly. But I'll try my hardest to get some cool **** for this phone
Haha yeah I can see how time is in short supply, even so you are doing so incredible stuff, and for that we Thank You!
Question to y'all,
I'm trying to gain init.d script support. Tried the universal init.d app, but if force closes every time I open it. Is there anything flashable that would grant init.d support?
Thanks!
