[Nexus 6  General] donguason:
Hi guys, quick question.

Im on a Nexus 6 that was bought thought moto and using it on Verizon. I am on build LMY47D. Am I correct in that I have to pull the SIM, wipe the phone and connect to Wifi for the 5.1.1 to kick in?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] phoenixus:
I'm trying to figure out if we have to do that or not. Wait a few days and see if you get the OTA. It seems insane for Google to make us do that if this phone is supposed to work on all carriers.
[Nexus 6  General] donguason:
Yeah, im in no hurry but just want to be prepared you know.
[Nexus 6  General] adildroid29:
Success... 5.1.1 Most Stable
[Nexus 6  General] skier8735:
Just download the LMY47D to LMY47Z ota from the ota thread and sideload it, no wipe or sim pull required. That's what I did and its working just fine.
[Nexus 6  General] neonpolaris:
I've got a few probably basic questions about this. I'm currently running Verizon's stock 5.1.0 LMY47E, rooted, custom recovery, and unencrypted with a no force-encrypt kernel. Questions:

Should I backup all my data, un-root by re-flashing the stock LMY47E, then take the OTA from Verizon (or sideload it), then reapply root and no-encrypt kernel, then wipe and restore my files (to decrypt again).

OR

Should I just use the Nexus Root Toolkit to no-wipe install the LMY47Z image with no force-encrypt and re-root? Is this Verizon OTA any different from the previously Google posted 'standard' LMY47Z?
[Nexus 6  General] RW-1:
The test is still progressing, though I grabbed the OTA update zip, I've yet seen it appear on my device yet (I'm seeing how long it takes VZ to actually deliver here ...)
[Nexus 6  General] liveMike:
If you are rooted you need to first unroot and get back to stock 5.1 before installing this.

Use Nexus root toolkit to make this process simple. Do a search and you will find it. I just went through the process and here is what I did:

1. Unroot and go back to stock.

2. Install 5.1.1

3. Unlock bootloader and root

4. Go through setting up my device again

It takes about 20 minutes with Nexus root toolkit and that included downloading the updates files.
[Nexus 6  General] phoenixus:
Has anyone confirmed that the OTA from VZW (47E TO 47Z) is the exact same as the 47Z posted on the nexus images?
[Nexus 6  General] bwheelies:
I have the update zip on my phone. I tried the install but it errored due to root.
[Nexus 6  General] leebsammy:
I just received the update on my stock VZW Nexus 6. It went fine. Are there any significant additions/changes coming from 5.1?

Also, this is the first android phone I've left stock w/o root. Besides a few little things, like not having a reboot option or LED notifications. I'm cool with the trade-off of not having to check for Rom updates and deal with random bugs.

Although BlissPop has tempted me on occasion :P
[Nexus 6  General] Aredubu:
I just installed it as well.
[Nexus 6  General] rdoane:
So does anyone have a zip you can sideload to go from LMY47E to LMY47Z?
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
Download it right from Google, use the Nexus Root Toolkit to install. Seamless.
[Nexus 6  General] rdoane:
I prefer to sideload and manually flash the OTA with fastboot. Thanks though.
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
That's what the tool kit does. If you just like typing, have at it. LOL
[Nexus 6  General] rdoane:
Unless something has changed, doesn't the toolkit pull the factory image rather than the OTA? If so that won't work for me. Bootloader is locked and I don't want to go through the process of restoring for a point update.

Also, has it been confirmed that the LMY47Z build arriving as an OTA is the same as the factory image that is posted? I believe it was mentioned that there might be new Verizon specific radios in the OTA.

[Nexus 6  General] PUERTO_RUK:
Here's the question that's pegging at me. Being that I am rooted and still on stock 5.1 LMY47E (Verizon), I'm assuming that if I take the 5.1.1 OTA, it will of course get rid of root. However, will it relock the bootloader? If so, that basically means that I'll have to use the toolkit again and start over from scratch. Can anyone confirm if the bootloader will indeed be re-locked?
[Nexus 6  General] RW-1:
You're rooted - so hence you cannot take the OTA - Period. I'm not going to re-cover something already done hundreds of times here.

Guess what hit my N6 today? (Right after I downloaded the OTA zip for sideloading later today, it hit at noon, and took about 5 min.

So that's three days not counting the holiday weekend and friday with it. I'd say not too bad ...
[Nexus 6  General] PUERTO_RUK:
There's no need to be a douche. I read threads and may have happened to miss that. If you aren't going to help and as you put it, "re-cover" something, then simply don't respond. PERIOD
[Nexus 6  General] RW-1:
Well, considering its MY thread, I'll reply as I see fit.

As far as your opinion, its just that. My rep is intact to hold up to your one off remark.

BTW, I did help - your not getting the OTA.

Two choices:

Flash "Z" image.

Unroot and then take the update, provided you haven't made other alterations to /system ...
[Nexus 6  General] wrecklesswun:
Functionally, have they added the call manager like on the droid turbo where you can manage calls? i flashed the sprint usc version and all works fine, took 3 mins.
[Nexus 6  General] PUERTO_RUK:
Lol, Ok my man, its "your thread". Another tough guy behind the keyboard. Your XDA rep doesn't equate to SQUAT in the real world, so have at it. And you actually DIDN'T help, or you would have answered my question. I asked if the bootloader would relock. Thanks anyway though.
[Nexus 6  General] RW-1:
Your ignorance really shines- since you can't get the OTA while rooted, its meaningless to discuss that aspect. It was answered. Thank you for playing.
[Nexus 6  General] PUERTO_RUK:

Hello everyone! Just wanted to check in and intro myself. Been an LG fan since pre-android days with the KE990 then to the G2X. After that, i've had pretty much every LG flagship phone. I actually still rock my LGOG and OG Pro from time to time. But i'm really loving my G4 so far. I'm a photographer, and the G4 met all my expectations.

Many people here and on Reddit say to call customer service. You'll get $50 to $120 bill credit.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Mildromeda:
Hey guys mildromeda checking in just like to say that I'm really a big fan of this device so far it's been a little buggy little laggy I came from the one plus one so I didn't really expect it to be slower but in some cases it is but its nothing that I can't get over the screen looks way too good and the camera is absolutely amazing

I'm really sitting here with my legs and fingers cross waiting for the root I have pledged a little money I just want to get this thing flash to CyanogenMod or something closer to stock I definitely think that the skin lG has on it is slowing it down a lot
[T-Mobile LG G4] Watanuki-Kun:
I just got my phone a week ago, called up customer support and they said that I would have to go to the store to get anything done. Tmobile twitter said the same thing too. I would have to pay for the restocking fee though. It will still be less in the end I guess. Tmobile will be my first stop Monday.

[T-Mobile LG G4] motoridersd:
I found a decent deal on a brand new T-Mobile G4 with a leather back on CL, so I bought it. My daily driver is a Nexus 6 and upon initial configuration of the G4, I notice a lot of lag in the UI. It's recently installed, so I'll let it live a few days. I'm excited about root, TWRP and looking forward to stock ROMs. I lived with a G3 for a long time, but coming from a Nexus, I'm hating this LG skin and performance.
[T-Mobile LG G4] DsturbD:
Do a factory reset and install Nova, it will be more responsive and look more like a nexus. And see the link i posted above for root. Very simple to do
[T-Mobile LG G4] motoridersd:
Oh, Nova is the very first thing I install, along with Swiftkey. The lag is in app and screen switching. The screen also seems to be a little less responsive than my N6. Anyone notice that? I did a factory reset before setting it up

The long(er) LG notification vibration is another thing I forgot I do not like. Root, unfortunately, breaks my work e-mail, which makes me sad because I would be able to fix a lot of things. It's too bad Root Cloak has no development anymore.
[T-Mobile LG G4] DsturbD:
sorry bro, dont know what to tell you.
[T-Mobile LG G4] motoridersd:
That's ok. I'm not looking for explanation or validation and I appreciate the suggestions. I was just commenting on my experience. I do love the phone though. The leather back is really nice, the curved screen is a great feature and the camera is fantastic. A huge leap from the N6's camera.
[T-Mobile LG G4] DsturbD:
Yeah the camera was the main reason i got this phone. Didnt even realize the screen was curved until someone posted about it lol
[T-Mobile LG G4] motoridersd:
Haha yeah, I had forgotten about that until I saw it from the side while it was charging!
[T-Mobile LG G4] DsturbD:
wow this thread kinda died after we got root and figured out the tmo g4 had an unlocked bootloader

so lets get this thread back off topic shall we?

I'm a little verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a topic.

The jelly bean is neither made of jelly nor is it a bean. Discuss
[T-Mobile LG G4] motoridersd:
After I debloated the phone (without root since my work's mandatory MDM for e-mail access won't work with root), it is SOOOO much better. I wouldn't blame people being forced to use the phone in the state it was the first few days for throwing it against a wall. My battery life improved dramatically (it was awful, I could barely make it 5 hours after unplugging. The phone was not going into deep sleep at all) and the phone is smooth 95% of the time.

There are still a few annoyances here and there, and I miss stock Lollipop, but it's a livable phone and I'm still loving the camera.

The WiFi bug when connected to my 5 Ghz network is probably my top complaint at the moment.
[T-Mobile LG G4] DsturbD:

Long story short I just found out T-Mobile no longer Carries xperia z3 Under warranty. They offered me a galaxy s5 as replacement, but I'm not a fan of that. So he told me upgrading was an option. Ironically I like the GS6. I also like the G4 and can't find any cons on it other than it being a big phone. My Z3 isn't broken, but has certain phone issues that have been around for a while. Speaker phone is just bad on both ends. Most recently it has been stutter stopping with text messaging, forcing me to restart 3 or 4 times before i get text coming in. I like my phone, but didn't know the "sony" problems before I purchased it. I'm trying to do a lot of research and get opinions before making another purchase.

Since T-Mobile isn't showing signs of carrying another xperia, I've been looking at the LG G4, GS6, and GS6 edge. I know a lot of you are phone collectors, reviewers, and just have multiple phones so I would like some honest opinions on these phones compared to the Z3 if possible. Rooting, every day usage, common problems, if it's worth, etc. These would be greatly appreciated everyone.

Been browsing xda for a long time. TonyStark has to be the worst moderator I've ever witnessed. And I was around for the Eugene373 stuff.

Specifically closing the root thread because there is already a thread on xda explaining how to root. If it isn't linked to I don't know how anyone can find it if there aren't any threads here pointing to it, but I bet that will be too complicated of a concept.

Matter of fact maybe there should be only one root thread for all lg devices, or all devices period, and then there won't be all these root threads cluttering up xda.
[T-Mobile LG G4] dragion:
I was in the same situation as you, but had a different issue with my Xperia Z3...screen would have lines appear and will be washed out intermittently. Brought it into T-Mobile and the only thing they could do was to hard reset, but it didn't work...spent all night restoring it back too. Went back the next following day and now I'm a proud owner of the LG G4. Still learning about it and getting used to the LG OS compared to Xperia's. I'm missing the audio quality from the Xperia and the waterproof/dustproof ability.

Overall, I feel like it was an upgrade, so you should go for it! :good:

I'm just here to say that I'm kind of upset that I'm a little late and missed the free battery, battery charger and SD card promotion. Just switched to T-Mobile. Also just switched to LG, always used Samsung phones.

Looked at the battery and charger combo last night and wow, that's a price.
[T-Mobile LG G4] DsturbD:
I got the free battery and charger and to be honest i dont think ill ever use it. I get unreal battery life right now so dont see any reason to take my case off juat to switch batteries. That might change one day but right now i dont even need it
[T-Mobile LG G4] frozeninferno:
Well, all I can tell you is I'm very jealous of you because you have the charger and battery. It'll be a bit before I buy one for myself.

Probably be rooting the phone tonight as well as purchasing a case and glass screen protector off of Amazon.
[T-Mobile LG G4] motoridersd:
You can get a car QC 2.0 charger ($17 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LJT2EPK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00), a good QC 2.0 wall charger ($16 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QEX83LA?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00) or a QC 2.0 battery pack ($30 www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UBDI7EC?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00) depending on what your needs are.

Remember that the included charger is not Quick Charge compatible, so you will get a faster charge from a QC 2.0 charger. Without using the phone, you can charge it up in about 1.5 hours from very low levels.

It's not as good as a free battery, but it might be cheaper than buying the kit (or more convenient in the case of the battery pack).

Mine is also locked even though I bought it outright. Haven't contacted T-Mo about it yet, but when I had the G3 an online unlock code was only a couple of bucks. With T-Mo's international offerings, I don't have a need to use a foreign SIM card anymore.

I bought my G4 off of Craigslist, and the girl that I got it from met with me today to give me the battery and cover that she got from LG through the promo. The battery case/charger is surprisingly small. I did not expect it to be so compact.
