You have pointed out the G4 very well :thumbup:

I feel that the G4 is kind of All-in-one phone, and that's why I bought it :)

OTA version check

How does LG OTA determine if you are using the latest firmware?

Is it based on the IMEI (region) of your device or do they check your current firmware and compare it with the latest version

I'm asking because I flashed a non-rooted 10D to my TWN region phone and was wondering if would still receive future OTA updates?
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Can't open the link
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:

I got the H81110n update today via LG Bridge App on PC with my T-Mobile LG G4. It's only been about 3-4 hours but the touch response seems improved so far (if not fixed). Hopefully I'm not just imagining things.

My Story with Xposed and G4

As soon as we were able to put Xposed on our devices I jumped right in at did it. I never use to many modules just simple things like xstana, YouTube adaway, lolistat and of course greenify. I enjoyed the new nav bar and icon buttons and all the colors status bars and nav bars. But never got better battery life and it started getting worse. It continued to drain even with the screen off. Several nights in a row I would charge it all the way, then let it sit while I slept. Each morning I would wake up with 25-40% battery drained. I started by trying powernap and amplify to see if that would help. Nothing.

Yesterday I uninstalled all my modules but left the framework to see if it was a module. Left it at 100℅ last night, woke up to 70%. Before I had Xposed installed I would lose maybe 2% overnight.

Frustrated and thinking it couldn't possibly be Xposed, I factory reset this morning. That did not remove the framework, which was OK by me, I wanted to see if it was maybe a rogue app not showing up on my battery stats or wakelock detector. I let it sit for about an hour after the reset and saw a 5% decrease still. So I ran the Xposed uninstaller zip which removed the framework. Now everything is good and absolutely no battery drain in standby.

I'm not sharing this to deter anyone from using Xposed, I love it and was eagerly awaiting for the G4 Tweakbox to be released. I never had any lag or stutter with Xposed installed but the battery drain was a killer. Maybe it's not just me or maybe it is. Hopefully something can be optimized in the future for the G4.
[G4 General] motoridersd:
Wow, that doesn't sound good at all. Glad you were able to resolve your battery drain, but there's something definitely off with your setup. Could it be you were running a buggy version of the framework? Did you ever update it to a different version? I've been running Xposed on my H811 since v71 and with Greenify my phone now sleeps like a dream. My deep sleep states are much longer than they were before.

I recently upgraded to v73 and Amplify now works (it didn't do anything before, so you wouldn't have seen any benefit unless you installed v73 yesterday). Today is my first day with Amplify running so it will be interesting to see if my battery life improves.

I can usually make it from 7 AM to 5 PM with about 15% left. I run Waze and Hotspot (with full screen brightness) for about an hour total each day and my signal at work is not very good (but I do use WiFi). Battery life is about the same as it was on my Nexus 6 without root, and better than my Moto X 2nd Gen without root, so I'm pretty happy.
[G4 General] android404:
Me and my little daughter kind of miss touch block. And the camera button.
[G4 General] jaxbierley:
I was using romracers unofficial version until v73 came out the other day. I upgraded and was still having issues. I was hoping with it being official that there would be a fix. I hope no body takes it the wrong way I am not blaming rovo or anyone for it. I used xposed on my nexus 5 and still do on my nexus 9 with no issues what so ever. I have heard mixed issues with xposed on the G4.
[G4 General] motoridersd:
Oh I know, sometimes odd things like these happen. Do you have unlocked BL and TWRP? Would be worth trying a clean install and see what happens with a clean v73 install. You can easily go back if something goes wrong.
[G4 General] jaxbierley:
No, I have a locked bootloader. I was flashing through FlashFire. I didn't uninstall unofficial v71 when I upgraded to v73. I may try a clean install of v73 and see what happens. I was having the same drain on v71 tho also.
[G4 General] SeventhSky:
Hello everyone yesterday i got a lg g4 and it did 2 OTA updates.After the second update it restarted 3 times by itself. What could be the problem? I am running v10d-eu version.
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Try pulling the battery. Give it 3 or 4 minutes. Put the battery back in and see if it boots with no issue.

When OTA's are installed a phone can reboot several times.
[G4 General] InflatedTitan:
Man not having unlocked bootloader and no development for this long is killing me... I've been trying to be patient lol... Last thing I want to do is move on but that new nexus is starting to tempt me more and more..
[G4 General] SeventhSky:
ok , i'll try your advice. Could factory reset work too?

edit: It booted up just fine , will monitor and see if it reboots on it's own again.
[G4 General] khorjailagbert:
For me, use normally at approximately 4 hours.
[G4 General] zedmarcus:
Totally agree. I was used to flashing weekly until I got this device. Suppose I should have done my homework first to see what development on LG phones is like.

Would love to see vanilla android on this device, but I'm beginning to think it'll never happen.

I'm keeping an eye on the upcoming nexus devices, but the Huawei one looks like it is gonna be to big for me, and the LG one looks like a bit of a downgrade to what the LG G4 is.

Was always an HTC user before but moved away this time as the M9 was a bit "meh". If the new Nexus doesn't impress I'll wait to see if HTC can throw out one more great device before it goes under. At least there is always an active development scene with an HTC device.

[G4 General] metropical:
woof. so far this is a dog for minor reasons. I have to root a to be able to change the T-Mo provided ringers? Stoopit.

And google has apparently changed the way contacts work requiring me to re-edit some of them so they appear.

Bluetooth audio output level seems low.

HTC M7 sound is way better, even though it's Beat-ified.

It's too big. Battery life appears to be good so far.

Endless issues with T-Mo WiFi Calling that T-Mo has been unable to fix.

Even though the M9 technology is not as good as this, I'm starting to regret this purchase.

I may jump if HTC makes it through with a new phone in March.

But it could just be that the un-Carrier is now like everyone else.

[G4 General] wilbarger:
I thought I had bought the correct version of the G4. The software version was 10b-EUR-xx before root and after root it is 10c-EUR-xx. I tried to unlock the bootloader and entered the IMEI and Device ID on the LG bootloader unlock page and it came back and said that it was an American version. My question is, how is one to tell if they truly have an 815 EU version. My hardware reports back as LG-H815. Very frustrating.
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
The box or from dial pad menu (directions)

[G4 General] wilbarger:

I bought the phone from Swappa and do not have the box.
[G4 General] Nowak4G:
Yeah I have root and used flashfire to "flash" Exposed framework. The phone goes black and appears to be off and won't turn on, but just let it do its thing because it will eventually work. But a little scary for a minute haha. And all my normal modules work fine.
[G4 General] Barsky:
I use the phone with 2 different BT headphones and my car. zero issues. Once connected to bt, turn up the volume, which will be bt volume.

Too big? Well, as an intelligent shopper, how did you miss the size of the phone before your purchase?

I had an One m7. great phone until you need to repair it. Then it is pretty much worthless. G4 easily comes apart for all repairs.

The thing I don't like about the HTC One (m7, m8, m9) is that the phone is so much taller for same or smaller screen due to the speakers on top and bottom.
[G4 General] wilbarger:
Did you get a chance to look at my reply to your post? Does any of that make any sense? I did log on to the LG Developer site from the US, but tried later with my vpn set to Germany with the same results.
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Where you log in from should not matter.

The device is EU and by all accounts should be unlocked. I can only suggest trying to contact the seller from Swappa and see if they had the device BL unlocked. If so, how did they do it. If not, why?

Free gifts from LG with G4 purchase possible - USA

According to a source for Droid Life, LG should be lining up a few free gifts for purchasers of the new G4 smartphone. Likely redeemable by any G4 buyer, regardless of carrier, LG should be gifting a free replacement battery, extra wall charger, and 32GB microSD card when you signup through a dedicated promo website.

The promo should run from May 22 to June 21, as stated by our source, allowing most early buyers to grab the free goodies from LG. At this time, we are only aware of this promo for US buyers, and are not sure about International customers.

Are there any TWRP flashable V10H roms for H815?
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
Why do you want 10H one? What version of G4 do you have? 10H might not be intended for your device. There are different upgrade paths for different G4 versions.
[G4 General] whizz:
I have a European G4 (international), running rooted and unlocked v10c. I thought all phones would get V10H eventually.. Am I mistaken? Should I look for V10G maybe?
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
As I said, it's different for different G4 versions.

I have the Taiwan device, and 10C is the latest update, but it does fix stagefright and fixes touch. It is at the same level as 10G etc on other versions.

What happens when you check for updates in Settings > about > software update? if there's an update, it will tell you. Otherwise, don't flash other random updates just because they have a higher version number.

Put your IMEI/ESN into this website, and it'll show the versions available for your device: http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/
[G4 General] whizz:
Thanks mate.

I have installed the TWRP version of the 10C ROM, which has OTA disabled, so it will not show updates. Thanks for the link, it shows v10D as the newest version, but I see custom roms in the Android Development section which have v10G, also for the H815.. Those should be compatible, right?

Is there an overview of which ROM versions are equal?
[G4 General] the_scotsman:
There are different versions of the H815 all with the same model number.

Your phone says 10D is the latest, so there's no point installing 10G. That is intended for another model. It will have the same updates as your 10D.
[G4 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
What was said above in that link is whag you should stick with:good:

[G4 General] wilbarger:
Now, I am really getting worried. The IMEI checker site comes back with "nothing found" when I put my imei in. Yes, I have double and triple checked it to make sure it is correct. Anybody else run into this? Even on the bootloader unlock page on the LG site, where I enter the imei, it shows as ok.
[G4 General] autoprime:
sounds like you have the USA H815... and someone flashed it with a EU KDZ then sold it.
[G4 General] wilbarger:
That must be what happened. I am still learning about LG phones and software. I am coming from an OPO and Samsung environment. I know everything to do with those, but am learning over here. Really, I did not even know that the EU software could be installed on the US variant. Wouldn't the bootloader have to be unlocked for that to happen?

I do have the phone rooted, but just like to play around with an unlocked phone. I really like the G4 so far.
[G4 General] autoprime:
the hardware is exactly the same... and firmware is the same (other than it saying EUR in the version).

the issue is.. the IMEI of your phone is not on LG's official "unlock whitelist" which currently only contains the IMEI's of EU H815 devices.

if LG were to eventually add USA H815 IMEIs to the unlock whitelist then it could be unlocked. No one outside of some people at LG knows if/when that will happen.
[G4 General] wilbarger:
I understand that the hw is the same, but wouldn't one have to have an unlocked bootloader in order to flash different (EU vs US) software on the phone.
[G4 General] autoprime:
no, its the exact same bootloader, byte for byte. bootloader unlocks are for running unsigned kernels (unsigned boot.img or unsigned recovery.img). everything in a KDZ is signed by LG and therefore doesnt need anything unlocked.
