I wrote this earlier in the Bounty page for the bootloader unlock, but just so other people can see this as well, here is it in post form! This is the way to unlock bootloader on G3 so if anyone is on lollipop and is rooted, could they try it?
-- STEP 1: Remove LG Download mode (laf)
Important! You'll need root access to remove (laf), so make sure you've rooted before proceeding with the steps below:
Download ADB files:
Prepare your phone:
Enable developer options: Go to your phone's Settings » select About phone » Scroll to the bottom and tap on "Build number" seven times to enable developer options
Enable USB Debugging: Open phone's Settings » select Developer options » Tick the "USB debugging" checkbox (under Debugging section)
Connect your phone to PC with a USB cable and if/when a pop-up screen shows up on Phone asking you to 'Allow USB debugging?' for the computer, make sure you tick the checkbox and tap OK
Now type/paste the following ADB commands to backup LG Download Mode (laf), so you can restore it later when necessary
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf of=/sdcard/laf.img
Now run the following command to remove laf and reboot your phone
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf
exit
adb reboot
Your phone will now reboot
Now to go into fastboot
adb reboot bootloader
Unlock bootloader!
fastboot oem unlock
or
fastboot flashing unlock
I took this info from original source listed below and made a few changes..
