Go to the LG Unlock Bootloader page (hxxp://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev ), make your account, and get to the unlock form. Enter your IMEI and Device ID as directed.



In Chrome, right-click and inspect the drop down for Phone. I changed LGUS997 to LGUS998 (see picture: hxxps://imgur.com/a/vTJWx ).



Confirm, Agree, then check your email!



REMINDER THAT UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER WIPES YOUR DATA AND VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY



No idea if this would work for any of the carrier models... I kind of doubt it. I'd bet the US998 already has the allowed IMEI range in their backend, but somebody should give it a shot!

I tried the same trick in Firefox with my v30+ but it says it does not support unlocking the bootloader. I'll just send mine back. Enough of this BS, LGI tried on both Firefox and Chrome using that trick, it says unfortunately it is not supported. If I say US998U for the v30+ instead, it says 9 more tried then it is locked.I tried in both Firefox and Chrome, using US998 (it says it not supported). If I choose US998U, then it says I have 9 more times. I will be sending this back on Friday.I tried in both Firefox and Chrome for the B&H v30+, using US998 (it says it not supported).
