The LG G7 ThinQ was launched back in May 2018 with flagship-grade specifications that include SDM845 SoC, 4GB/6GB RAM, 64GB/128GB storage, dual rear cameras, and more. The device came with Android 8.0 Oreo and currently running on Android 9 Pie. Here we have shared the Universal Bootloader Unlock Method for LG G7 ThinQ that will be applicable for all variants except for T-Mobile. If you need to flash Custom ROM or kernel on your LG G7 ThinQ, you should follow this guide.
Bootloader unlocking may void the device warranty (if applicable). But it’s necessary to unlock the bootloader at first before flashing any third-party file on your Android device. Some of the advanced users or customization lovers may not get satisfied with the Stock ROM on their devices mostly. In that case, users always want to install custom firmware or custom recovery or any module. Meanwhile, some of the users are focused on rooting their Android devices to get customizations freely.

What is Bootloader Unlocking?
In a simple term, a device bootloader is a piece of software or code that runs on your device every time your phone boots up. It basically tells the phone whether to boot into the system or into the stock recovery mode. The bootloader comes by the device OEM in a locked status for security and safety reasons.
If I already have a ULM and can boot into the bootloader from adb, do I need to flash the ULM firmware file?
Thanks.
