Unfortunately you cannot unlock the bootloader of your phone, I'm sorry.
Only unbranded US997 and European H870 can

No, you can't.
Even if you could do that it wouldn't allow you to unlock the bootloader, it's not the firmware, but the id and imei that identifies the device.

@KiLLau96 i dont know how you have the tolerance to answer question about DS G6's every second day. I get frustrated repeatedly reading the same question that have been answered a million times. PS I'm a DS owner.

LG G5 SE (H840) Bootloader unlock released

LG have today released the bootloader unlock for the European G5SE (H840), as seen on their bootloader unlocking site, which I cannot post due to post restrictions.
Finally, G5SE owners can get much desired (or deserved?) root!

You guys can only unlock your bootloader's currently, no TWRP yet and therefore no root or custom roms. Here's the bootloader site:
http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev
Once you have done that you will have an unlocked bootloader but will just have to wait for someone to build TWRP for your device. Once that's done then you can flash SuperSU or magisk from TWRP to root. Also once that's done, you might get custom ROM support (you will have to ask @King_lilrowrow if he can add support for the h840 se to lineageos).
Wow! good news! it's amazing how much time it took LG to release it.
Now let's hope they will unlock G5 H820's bootloader.
Great news. Now waiting for TWRP for H840!!

Not every version of the 840 will be unlockable or unlockable right away. The h850 is also supported but yet only the EU open version, other h850 can't unlock. It is up to LG to add which versions they want to allow to unlock. If it doesn't work saying it's not supported or not allowed, try again later or contact LG and pray they add unlocking support for that specific version, although I wouldn't hold my breath on that. Also, I'm assuming TIM is your carrier, if so and it's a carrier version instead of unlocked h840 se, it most likely won't be unlocked. Again, try and give it time and try again and hopefully you have luck.
oooook, I have unlock my bootloader tim ITALY

It won't change anything, if the phone is not european you cannot unlock the bootloader.

So why the LG website, said 'this phone bootloader cannot be unlocked'
My assumption, if I will change my region to... UK or something else in Europe it will send me the unlock code.
Now let say I get the code, do u think I should go for it?
Can I brick the phone?

If you get the code it'll be alright, but if the site says that the bootloader cannot be unlocked after inserting device id and IMEI than it's not an European H870

I do not have this phone. I want to buy it.
Yes it has, mine is H870 DEC and I have unlocked the bootloader and root.
If it's H870 then yes, no matter which region it is. Other variants like H870S/DS are unlockable.

That's not true at all, sudamerican models are H870 also and don't have unlockeable bootloader. Only carrierfree H870 model and US carrier free model can be unlocked.

LG G6 Korea LGM-G600L custom ROM

Hi, I'm currently using the Korea version of the LG G6, LGM-G600L and after a quick browse, I can see that I can unlock my phone bootloader and install TWRP, the last thing concern me is the lack of custom ROM for LGM-G600L, and I wonder if I can flash customer ROM for EU or US version without any problems? Has anyone tried it?

Koren model of the G6 can't be unlocked, only H870 european version and US977 unlocked version. But root is possible in H872, H870 and US977. If you flash another version ROM you can brick your device or may work but with some errors, it is recommended to not do it.

I can see the switch allow OEM unlock in the developer options, inn't that is the option to allow for unlock bootloader?
But it's sad to know that I can't flash custom ROM, guest I should investigate further before buying new phone.
Thanks for the info.

You can have the option in the developer settings, but if the official LG website doesn't provide the unlock.bin file for your model (it's the case) you can't unlock the bootloader.
