        Anonymous, 03 Jun 2015What does that mean?ulocked bootloader,im a g3(3 gigs)owner... moreIn simple terms, a bootloader is the code that runs on a device (be it a phone or computer) before the operating system starts up. Almost all operating systems have bootloaders of some sort. This low-level code contains the instructions that tell a device how to start up and find the system kernel. Every time your phone starts up, that bootloader code is telling your device what to do in order to get you to the home screen. With an unlocked bootloader, you can run custom ROMs, modified Operating Systems (Android) or even a different O/S altogether, like running Windows 10 on the G4 ;)

                      Got a G3 so looking forward to unlocking the bootloader soon.

                      Also, I think the G4 may just be the surprise success of this year's beleaguered qualcomm-sporting flaghships.

                          Very good news, this will bust the sales for G4. I wish all the manufacturers to do this. LG is firs.

                              It is really great. Not only it helps to develop custom roms and kernels for LG G4, but also it will help to run windows 10 mobile, tizen os and ubuntu os on this spectacular device!
