Is the Verizon version Rootable? - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

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.

[Q] Current state of bootloader

So bar the T-Mobile variant of the G3. We don't have an unlocked bootloader on any other models. Now i know we have bump which works but its not what i mean.
I found this - https://www.change.org/p/lg-electro...lock-bootloader-in-lg-phones?lang=en-GB#share
And some stuff on the AT&T Forums but no where with updated information and whether or not its still being worked on.

Current state: locked. No, LG won't unlock it. Never.
Is there any way to check bootloader status?

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.

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:

Pretty sure there are no Moto phones running Oreo yet... and the G5 will be one of the last I imagine (in light of the G5s etc).

Well, moto live chat sayed that Ende if november oreo for g5 will be dropped. If u have bootloader unlicked, u cant update anyways, As it WILL hardbrick.
It's available on G5S Plus via Lineage OS n I'm assuming OTA Stock Update. Wonder if any of the Devs for G5 Lineage OS are in process of updating.
New to forums n XDA so not really sure how it works etc.

Are you sure that installing an OTA update with an unlocked bootloader will hard brick? It seems like the problem would be the custom recovery and not the unlocked bootloader.

Can anyone else confirm this? There is no reason just having the bootloader unlocked should break OTA.

p8tgames - thank you for the link. In fact, I have read many threads and I do not find clear or consistent answers. It seems to me that some of the problems are not necessarily related to the unlocked bootloader, but to a custom recovery or space issues. I thank you for trying to help out, but I am still not clear from your posts and those of others what the real source of trouble is.

Sad how difficult xiaomi makes it to unlock the bootloader, even though the arb bricked a lot of devices. And even more sad how people trying to make a profit from that. That alone should be a reason for xiaomi to make it easier.

What does unlocking bootloader has to do with ARB? Not like you can fix arb with unlocked bootloader.. More like unlocked bootloader gives users who cant even read & research before flashing an easier way to brick. If you dont unlock bootloader, and just use xiaomi provided official updates you cant brick it..

Okay, I didn't know the exact details, my point was that I find it sad that people are trying to make a profit of something xiaomi could easily fix.
I'm on arb 3 anyways and I'm still waiting for my unlock.
