I don't know if that will work but you can use LGup to downgrade to Lollipop and have root

actually i was planning to go to that direction; but upon reading, it says it will wipe my data if u go back using LGUP.. is this true? as i still need my internal data and cannot do backup

To unlock the bootloader in any way will very probably force you to make a backup or lose your files as it often rhymes with an automatic factory reset.

i tried to generate a unlock.bin using my device-id and different imei (an imei from a unlockable international version) and lg checks the numbers in their server and give me an error, and a deadline of 10 incorrect device-id / imei combinations before they lock my developer account.
