Unlocking the bootloader

Clone this repository that includes LGLAF script for communication with LG devices in download mode (make sure to enable developer mode first from android).
Follow instructions listed in lglaf github page, power off the device and enter download mode connecting device via USB as peripheral while holding Volume Up button.
Download aboot_patched.img from here and flash it to aboot partition, running the following commands in a terminal:

$ cd lglaf && python partitions.py --wipe aboot
$ python partitions.py --restore /path/to/aboot_patched.img aboot

Note: You could find useful to make a backup of aboot partition by running python partitions.py --dump /path/where/to/save/file aboot (or making a full backup by running python extract-partitions.py -d /path/where/to/save/files --max-size 0). You can also view a list of partitions by running python partitions.py --list.

Power off the device and download TWRP from here. Then, enter download mode again as shown above and flash TWRP image to recovery partition, running the following commands in a terminal:

$ cd lglaf && python partitions.py --wipe recovery
$ python partitions.py --restore /path/to/twrp-3.5.2_9-0-m216.img recovery

After turning off the device, you can enter recovery mode holding Power + Volume Down until the LG logo appears, then release both and press them again. Finally, choose Yes twice in the next screens. Once TWRP screen appears, you'll be able to flash bootloader images using this known custom recovery.

How to enter flash mode

Once lk2nd image has been flashed to boot partition using TWRP, you can get to flash mode just turning the device on. The screen should display lk2nd menu.
