Unfortunately not. At this rate, it may never come. Officially, it won't ever happen. However, unofficially, we might get something like the bumped recovery from the G3, but I wouldn't hold your breath. I would not be surprised at all of someone like jcase has already cracked it wife open, but something happened (I don't really know, so I am not the one to ask about the details) and now he will not assist with LG devices.

No. The H815 and H811 are the only ones that can be unlocked and on H815 they must be on the UNLOCK LIST
This will not change.

No, this is INCORRECT information - H815 versions from all over Europe are bootloader unlockable, I have provided the complete list of 135 countries/carrier versions that can be bootloader unlocked using the tools on LG developer website in this post.
Please do not answer questions if you don't know what you are talking about, it just spreads misinformation :good:

well it might but chances are very very low. the issue is the carriers have it locked or region the phone belongs to. and there hasnt been a way to access bootloader. no one has found a way.

H815(SEA) Unlock.bin

Hello guys, Im using South East Asia(SEA) variant of LG G4 and few times ago SEA variant owners were able to get Unlock.bin from LG Developer site. But now you can't get access from the LG Developer site.
Therefore i need a Unlock.bin from a SEA variant

So you need someone that can access the website of LG developers and give you your own unlock.bin because you can't ? Or just wanted a random unlock.bin (this can't unlock your device)?

Will doing something like that can unlock bootloader, I mean if we edit unlock.bin and put our device id will it unlock the bootloader there is no further security.
Please update me on this I also have H815 SEA and I would also like to enjoy CM if this is possible.

They have said officially that H815 SEA don't support unlocking bootloader, it happened for a short period of time which was meant for internal testing purpose.

Flashing a 811 kdz should work in term but high rate of failure and hardbrick. It's the only way that we could use to unlock !
I'm planning to flash a turkish kdz version numbered of v20g. Creator of the thread says it can be flashed on every variant

Downgrade H815 (Taiwan Version) from MM TO LP?

Well, I thought buying this phone would end my terrible relationship with ATT's Note 4 for good... Hell it's even an H815 for christ sakes....
But it seems like it can't be rooted on MM due its bootloader being locked :/
Yes, I did try using the official unlock tool but, as some of you know it doesn't work for the Taiwan version (Just my luck).
However, I looked around and saw that the Lollipop version can have root/twrp installed WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader.
In conclusion, my question is............. will I be able to downgrade from MM to Lollipop?

From what I know the H815 model can be unlocked. But I think it's only the International one. There's an unofficial unlock in the works, just look around on the forums, haven't been that interested 'cause I'm rocking an International model

Lollipop, or LP, is version 5.1. Just look at the KDZ files that are Android 5.1
Nope.

You have to downgrade to LP if you want root.

depends if phone can be downgraded.. some phone have antirollback.. example i have h811 and if am on lastest 20pMM its V3 so i can only downgrade to MM 20o... if i was on MM20i i could downgrade to LP 10n as 10n and 20i are V2.. so you need to ask what antirollback version your phone is.. some can.. and some phone cant be downgraded after you on specific firmware... try the hidden menu and check the software then scroll down and it says wich antirollback you are on. otherwise youll hard brick phone.

One has to wonder if anti-rollback is permanent on the device or not, even with bootloader unlocking and or root access.
Root is now quit possible with the new vulnerabilities found. Now it seems to be a wait and see game if there are any devs that care to tackle certain G4 models that cannot be self-rooted yet. The dirty cow code is out...so yeah.

Yeah it sucks. Guess I just have to wait for any development on this device in the future. If anyone out there has this same model like mine I'm open to suggestions.

Is the Verizon version Rootable?

Have you rooted?
I don't think bootloader unlock is even possible at this point. There were quite a few threads about this posted earlier in the month/year. I would recommend checking those before creating a thread about it!

Republic wireless sells it. Think most people buy it unlocked direct from Moto, or Best buy or Amazon.
