    I have LG G2 d802 international running kitkat 4.4.2
    I have rooted it using ioroot25 and then flashed TWRP recovery (with AutoRec).. now I want to install a custom rom but I've learned that the process includes an unlocked bootloader and I don't know if I have one..How can I tell ? or just being rooted means I have an unlocked bootloader? please help !
    thanx,

    thanx,
    Unlocking the bootloader is the first step in rooting your phone. You can't root a phone without unlocking the bootloader. So if you have rooted the phone then it's pretty safe to say that the bootloader is unlocked. I would recommend giving this a read, some helpful and easy instructions are in here: Rooting your Android | Android Central

    that's what I thought too! ..
    the info I've been going through over the internet about the bootloader was so confusing but that's some good info in no time
    thank you very much!
