Maybe try installing some different DLL files for LGUP to see if your phone can be recognized. This seems to be an issue for some different variants.

There are some available here http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G5/LGUP

Darn, H831 Canadian Variant here and I recently upgraded to Nougat. Guess no RollBack for me. But this sheds some light into the rooting aspect of the G5 so I'll just chill on Nougat till another root method comes out for my device. Thanks for the effort though.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fobos531:
Can you please explain to me how you got it working on G5? Where did you get the userdebug kernel (if that's what you did)? Would it be possible to do the same thing for other LG Phones running Marshmallow? On my specific device antirollback's value is " non-fusing device" if that means anything to you.

Tried both of them, no luck :/ I'm starting to get hopeless, at this stage I can only hope for a quick root + TWRP, it's the only way i'm seeing in order to a stable OS on my phone, unless there is a way to reverse everything done to root.

I accessed to my phone through LAN, since My LG G5 appears to be empty when I open it normally, and here is the result

I can't seem to find the normal media folder, all are empty

Happy for you :) Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it working on nougat (the first time I tried to disable dm-verity I still got the "your phone is corrupt screen"). Tried 3 times so far but nothing changed

[MENTION=7479791]Honestly Annoying[/MENTION] I would have a question to ask you if you don't mind : at the step where you ask to reboot our phone into recovery and wipe data you added "again". Should we have wiped the data partition before ?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ReeS86:
I think this root method just replaces the kernel with a debug one. You may be able to flash the original kernel from the stock KDZ or TOT file with flashfire if that is all that was changed. Not sure if any other significant mods are done to the system files that would stop the stock kernel from booting though.

I managed to see my device on LG UP, but only on LG UP 1.11, I'm having Download error whenever I try to upgrade or refurbish, I'm trying my hella best to get my phone back on track xD

Edit 1 : I'm really out of options ... LG UP 1.14 says model unknown, with 1.11 and 1.10 he finds my model but either crashes or says Download Error ... Uppercut doesn't work with LG UP Prior to 1.14, so I'm pretty much damned, maybe It's my DLL that's not right ? I tested all dll I could find on the web, if anyone got one working, can he PM it to me please? I'm really desperate atm ...

From the Reddit post:

RIP LG
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffsga88:
I'm assuming that build.prop may have been changed with this method, maybe that's part of the issue? If so maybe you can get stock build.prop and push it to your phone via ADB and maybe that could help. Also maybe try deleting all lg up and uppercut related files and then download the older version of lg up, drivers and DLL. I know I had issues with g5 at first because I had stuff for LG up for the g2, it only worked once I deleted everything and reinstalled the ones for g5.

recovery mode

is there a special button combination i need to activate the menu in recovery mode, so i can wipe data
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffsga88:
You can only wipe data if you're able to get into TWRP. Usually (but only if you know TWRP is actually installed) you turn phone off, hold volume down button AND power button at same time, when you see LG logo let go of ONLY the power button for a second (keep holding the volume down button the whole time) and then press and hold the power button again along with the volume down button. It will ask if you want to do factory data reset. Use volume keys to select and power to confirm yes and yes and it will enter into TWRP. If you do NOT have TWRP installed it will do a factory data reset. Also if you get into TWRP you hit cancel when it ask for password and then go-to wipe and click format data (this will erase ALL data on internal, backup first).

Sorry, I miss spoke, disregard my post.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Honestly Annoying:
...absolutely not. You can wipe data from EVERY stock recovery, not only TWRP.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nalf3in:
For anybody who doesn't know how to access the recovery on a stock g5, you can use this command when you are prompted to do the step 2 :

Once in the screen with the android logo (on your g5) hold the power button and the upper volume button for about 5 sec and release ONLY the upper volume button, you should now be able to wipe the data partition.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffsga88:
Sorry i miss spoke, but haven't had stock recovery forever back in the days before I had lg. Also on t mobile variant g5 all I could ever get into was the factory reset prompt using the button combo. But then again, t mobile has always been a different bootloader and all from every other variant.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] thjubeck:
its tricky but push the power and volume down with the phone off and as soon as you see the lg logo release and re-press the power button and keep holding till you get to the "would you like to wipe this phone"

---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 AM ----------

Yeah tried every method. Seems that an init script in the userdebug gives the wrong ownership to the /storage directory or the /data/media directory. I eventually had to go to the next OS version because the kdz for my current version was not available which put my anti-rollback to 1 so no more testing until someone finds a hack for anti-rollback 1.

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] abol_fa:
People who are deciding whether to do this or not: it is a very risky thing to do because it deals with the bootloader stuff and if anything goes wrong you are pretty much screwed.

Be Careful.

Disclaimer says it all.

And a question:

Is this a modified g5 bootloader or a modified v20 bootloader that we are flashing?

Are they even compatible?

Sent from my sh!tty LG-H860 that is beyond crap
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] adds08:
OP has mentioned that this is not debug bootloader. But debug system and boot(kernel) so its not a bootloader stuff.

Plus a disclaimer is always required for these unofficial methods..

And dirtysanta and dirtycow he is using ia modified for g5 so hes not using anything from v20.

Its not always 100% safe nothing ever has been so efficient..

Also to OP if u r in contact with tungkick (not to bother him alot) could u also find out if he has aboot or boot for other models of lg such as g flex 2 ..v10 and g4 ..

If yes we can have a unified blunlock or root for all lg devices.

Also congrats to u Op and dirtysanta team.. sadly i have a att g flex 2 with no MM yet ..

Cheers ??

Before i screwed my device

As what i read it still not working with nougat

Oops sorry.

You are right.

It's FROM v20 bootloader unlock not the v20 bootloader.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] anigooner:
Sorry for posting about H840 again. I can understand only if someone tries this on H840 they will be able to tell whether it is working or not.

But can you please tell me just 1 thing. Will it be possible to flash the firmware from other region. As mine is GBR (uk region) and as of now no firmware is available, can i flash the firmware of H840 from some other region?

If someone confirm this, i will go ahead and proceed with the rooting.

Thanks

I told before i tested this on g5 TR version but it was very very laggy. Very slow that was not even suitable for daily use. Also Dm verity did not work. So first of all we need solutions for these 2 problems.

1- Why very laggy? Why cant see sdcard? Why too many permission errors?

2- Why dm verity did not work?

But i saw a message saying adb is running as root.

I want to test something tomorrow. I will try to delete lets say youtube.apk from system. Can you tell me the adb command how to do this?

adb delete system\...\youtube.apk..

I cant use the phone because it becomes very very laggy but i wanna see if adb root can really delete these system files.

Maybe someone finds a solutions for the slowness, permissions problems.

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zmankiller:
I already tried, won't work, I softbricked for a little. And as far as I've tested we can't rollback. Just wait for a new method, there should be one for nougat since this was based on the v20 one and v20 is nougat.

This was not based on the Nougat. The ONLY THING (but most important thing) from the V20 is the dirtysanta, which I modified.

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] thjubeck:
If we can get a userdebug kernel boot.img then you could, but it seems that any new OS is not using the same boot.img as the older version.

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] yiweitech:
Nope, it didn't work for me either, I was too busy today to post but basically I pushed a reboot and data wipe command via adb to skip the power off, and more importantly, the phone is corrupt screen. Then I rebooted it and it ****ed up because dm verity was still on. Guess we're gonna have to wait a little while on nougat

also for anyone getting bricked (I killed mine by stupidly flashing the boot of a h830 by mistake), after literally a day of trying to unbrick it with lg up, uppercut, flash tool, toolkits, etc, the easiest solution by far is to use LG Bridge, the consumer software for fixing bad updates, it's a one click auto flash to the right version. I'm kicking myself for not trying that first
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hunikel:
Damn :/ It's pretty much annoying, did u try a factory reset to see if the bootloop goes away ?

Did u manage to use LG bridge from only download mode ? Once it downloads the firemware for me, It can't apply it for me from download mode :/
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] yiweitech:
I had it on download mode because I literally couldn't get out of it. I had like, 4 different drivers installed and cycled through installing/uninstalling them until one of them recognized it in bridge. What's the error it gives in download mode?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hunikel:
It recongnized my phone, downloaded the update, but couldn't apply it, it's like he doesn't see it anymore once it has to apply the update, and normally bridge forces you to install latest drivers no ?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] yiweitech:
yeah but those drivers didn't work initially, some others in the thread were having the same issue and I guess I was sort of replying to that. Is your phone stuck with a broken android with an error? If so that's just the stock recovery menu, you just need to push power + vol up, wipe your data, and reboot
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hunikel:
No, my phone works, It's just that I have no more access to storage or camera, and It's really laggy, and I can't flash with LGUP

have you tried uppercut? Also the four drivers I had are LG Mobile Driver, United Mobile Driver, VZW United Drivers, and the Bridge drivers. Also the modem drivers if you want to count that. 1.14 works with united drivers iirc, don't take my word for that though. Really weird that bridge isn't flashing, I think if you bricked it and unbricked it with bridge again it'd work fine :D (okay seriously don't quote me on that, it's far too late and I'm overdue for sleep)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] htlxxder:
Yes, i tried but have no effect, now i can not access the system, Once if u can entry the factory mode could u access the Version info ? ,i found it will FC ! i doubt when we brushed the boot.img ,it changed some information about the SW Version in some place we don't know except build.prop and if we can found and modify it correct, i think the LGUP can correct identification the phone model

i also found my phone can managed by LGBridge from download mode, but model still is unknown and can't update
