in order to save time you can do the following

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p1

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p2

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p3

and you continue to do that from block 1 to 56

note that the last ones are huge files so there will be no space left on your phone.

in order to free up space you can use the file manager application and move the files from the root of the sdcard to a folder you create in order to be able to copy the files to the pc.

if you have any questions you can send me your skype or whatsapp details and i will guide you.

thanks a lot for your help

by the way can you aend the link to the ebay seller

i cannot wait to unlock mine.

Just search for 27205280397 in ebay it would open the page for you. they have increased the price too..

Meanwhile i have started dumping the partitions.. the moment i dump all i will share it.

Partition size reached to 9gb total. let me know which one is important or expecting the whole dump. My net upload speed is not good so would be difficult to dump the whole dump. Is there anyways where i can compress it to max and upload it..? let me know?

Best of luck...wanted to see working and unlocked

Its assuming vice versa. Process as mentioned by [MENTION=915576]storm234[/MENTION] .

U can do a search of the g2/g3 method when u get stuck in recovery..

[T-Mobile LG G4] Android_Guy:
This *May* Work, but I dont have another SIM to bring up screen to enter unlock code....

I used an app called " ZTE Blade / San Francisco Network Unlocker" that I got from Play Store. 1st, hit "No" for popup when launched. It had my IMEI and unlock code ready instantly. This app doesn't appear to need root. Please let me know if this works! Good luck!
[T-Mobile LG G4] ysabxe:
guys be careful! backup all of your partitions!!! if not you will not be able to unlock via Unlock App!

I was trying to unlock with partitions from unlocked device but no luck!

I think some how it write Unlock in modem with IMEI info

good luck
[T-Mobile LG G4] tomtam:
Or you can try backup of mobile unlock app via titanium backup and then restore it after your partition write . Check may be a work around
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
i think that it is the best way to unlock free of charge i will try but im sure that if it was a TWRP backup it would worked for sure

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 PM ----------

could some one provide us with total TWRP backup from an unlocked H811 please ??
[T-Mobile LG G4] ysabxe:
TWRP backup is not working! Unlock not in system.
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
No all partitions especially EFS one could do the job , it's worth a try so if someone has un unlocked H811 it would be very nice :)
[T-Mobile LG G4] Barsky:
This unlocked your LGG4 H811? It says: This is a network unlocker for ZTE Blade and Orange San Francisco Android phones.
[T-Mobile LG G4] tomtam:
what about a full dump of OS via TWRP with efs backup too , then restore the full backup via twrp including efs ..

the only thing what will happen is there could be a same imei ..but again please note it would be only an issue if people are using in the same country...
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
what is the version provided by the member is it 10N or 10H ??
[T-Mobile LG G4] tomtam:
10N
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
so could someone post EFS backup of an unlocked H811 ?????
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
sry guys,

i just finished flashing all partitions that the member provided , i had version 10H and now it's 10N , still Network Locked , i flashed them by dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p4 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 ............... for each one , u can imagine doing that manually for 55 partition :p

bottom line , this device is not locked by the same method that the HTC One M9 is locked With :)

---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

just for info IMEI is now 0 and Tmobile app sad this it is an non compatible device :D
[T-Mobile LG G4] Tech_Savvy:
hope you had ur efs backuped with twrp..bc writing a efs from a different phone will always result in a zero...
[T-Mobile LG G4] ysabxe:
BACKUP ALL OF YOUR PARTITIONS BEFORE DOING SOMETHING!!! Payed method will not work if partitions was REPLACED!
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
I have bricked my Phone now :( i did reflash original partitions and now i have qualcomm hs usb qdloader 9008 issue ,

and there is no BoardDiag Tool that supports MSM8992 so hope that someone figures out a solution
[T-Mobile LG G4] siemens man:
guys

anyone unlock t-mobile H811 Lg g4????

if yes please tell me solution

thank you
[T-Mobile LG G4] tomtam:
Sad to hear it...does it boot in download mode...if yes then try flashing the T-mobile 10h stock rom. ..but again it seems u will face an issue with bootloop as the moment it appears to be without imei. Then again boot in download mode and try to root it quickly and then flash twrp and then restore your old backup with efs. ....hope that should work and boot in a proper way....

Again now to conclude suggest as of now to unlock it via paid service in ebay..at this stage...
[T-Mobile LG G4] Masaker514:
I also bricked my g4 by adding a different firmware, since i'm in Canada, LG USA would not ship me back the phone, I found a super cool person on XDA who let me use their address and is going to ship me back my phone. Problem is my phone is still locked and i can't use it here. T-Mobile really did a ****ty job on getting people to not unlock their devices.
[T-Mobile LG G4] leptdre:
The problem is labeled as hard brick, Download mode uses Laf partition , Hard brick = corrupt partition table , it can be recovered by Flashing PrimaryGPT but there there is no tool to do That for LG phones with 8992 or 8994 processor , so i will just wait and search for now :o
[T-Mobile LG G4] sagatt:
:(sorry about that, so ''ebay paid'' is the only way for now.. and what happend if the device has blacklisted for metro and tmobile, would this unlock work?
[T-Mobile LG G4] Ramhardy:

If i get one.. Ill change imeis until i find one Eligible to unlock... Then after unlock ill reflash my. Orignal imei:p shud work

hey tomtam, how many days you waited between paying the unlock service from YZ COMMUNICATIONS on Ebay and your phone being unlocked? thanks for the reply
[T-Mobile LG G4] storm234:
HI,

I can tell you that I have paid for the service last Thursday and as for now nothing.

when I contacted YZ Comm they told me 'still pending'.

I really hope they can do it. they promised to unlock it up to 4 business days which already passed ....

I would consider turning to someone else.
[T-Mobile LG G4] zschmeez:

That eBay seller just told me he can't unlock a T-Mobile G4, so back to the drawing board. Ugh. I always heard the T-Mobile G3 was better since it was easier to install custom ROM's, so I jumped at this new T-Mobile G4 on eBay. Now I'm stuck unless I want to leave Cricket (and I don't).

I have already tried method to make pop up window "Enter network unlock code" by flashing CyanogenMod - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJD_4KJH8yI

...BUT ENTERING CODE DID NOT WORKED!
[T-Mobile LG G4] storm234:
this is not what we are trying to get. we know that Cyanogen doesn't work.

we need a dump of an unlocked phone and by comparing multiple dumps (mmcblkXXX files) we hope to find the file that contains the unlock data.

this worked for HTC M9 and hopefully will work for our phone as well.

If you can create the dump of your unlocked phone (assuming this is 10N ROM) I can compare the files to the ones uploaded by TomTam.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Ramonsterator:
Sure, relax, I am waiting for a unlock :)

10N - stands for "Software version" - H81110n ??
[T-Mobile LG G4] sagatt:
hi

im android M now, how i can dump the files?
[T-Mobile LG G4] Ramonsterator:
Hello.

Are you rooted? Do you have TWRP installed?
[T-Mobile LG G4] storm234:
Hi,

If you are rooted do the following:

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p1old

this will dump the fist partition to the internal SDcard of the phone,

there are 56 partitions

I think that you can skip files 53, 54, 55

thanks a lot.
[T-Mobile LG G4] sagatt:

I've been on T-Mobile with this phone (fully paid) for just under a month. I'm rooted on 10n, and as soon as I am able will unlock through the app. I know it's no help now, but if you guys are still waiting for data I'll upload my partition dump at that time.
[T-Mobile LG G4] storm234:
Hi

If you can create a dump before and after the unlock - the would be great.
[T-Mobile LG G4] storm234:
HI All,

thanks to rami885 - I finally got my phone unlocked.

it costed me 55USD.

I would like to recommend using Rami's service especially since I have paid 3 guys that had refunded my payment.

my IMEI status was unknown.

Rami - thanks a lot.

BTW - I will create a new dump of my unlocked phone and update all if I find the solution.
[T-Mobile LG G4] storm234:
HI again,

After running some test I narrowed the list to the following partitions:

23,24,25,26,34,40,41,42

seems that there are changes to the efs partition and as much as I understand there is no quick hack here.... :(

if anyone has the knowledge to investigate further, I am willing to upload the files of those partitions (before and after the unlock)- just let me know.
[T-Mobile LG G4] jfp555:
Brute force hack?

Guys,

Dont know what to make of this, and dont want to give anyone false hope, but something very strange just happened.

My situation was quite bad. I had a friend by the g4 for me over swappa and had it shipped out of the the states. I put in a sim and obviously got the network lock message. I put it on airplane mode and put the phone aside for some days since I was busy and thought all I had to do was to buy unlock code for a few bucks over ebay. Googling lead me to this forum and I discovered i was screwed.

When I went to the unlock app, it said 'Device ineligible for unlock'. I even verified from Tmobiles online verificaiton website thing and it said that my imei was not in the database.

My friend who got this phone for me is a tmobile customer who DID put his sim in the phone when he got it and made a phone call to check if the phone radios were functional. Then he removed his sim.

I got the phone, put in a non-us sim, got network lock message. My friend called Tmobile and said he bought this phone and wanted it unlocked they said they do not have this IMEI on file. So we were screwed.

He sent another request and the auto resond mail he got from tmobile that acknowledged the request gave 14 day wait time for them to get back to him BUT THE EMAIL HAD A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT IMEI than the g4's that I had. He asked me to take a screenshot and mail him which I did. He then spent about 30 mins on the phone with a tmobile rep who said that he needed proof of purchase and swappa wasnt one and that the phone needed to be active on his sim.

He called me up and we were discussing options. While I was chatting with him through another phone, I had the g4 in hand.

Airplane Mode was ON.

there was NO SIM in the device.

WIFI calling was also disabled.

ONLY WIFI was on.

I was checking unlock services, charging 50 to 65 bucks and they said that the device must give 'device ineligible for repair message' for the unlock service to unlock my phone.

I KEPT HITTING THE PERMANENT UNLOCK BUTTON REPEATEDLY AND KEPT GETTING SERVER INACCESSIBLE MESSAGE

AFTER ABOUT 30 or MORE TRIES (i wasnt paying attention, was very disappointed), i get a 'Device is permanently unlocked' prompt asking me to restart.

I restarted. When phone had booted up, on desktop i got a small notification in lower third of screen saying 'device permanently unlocked'.

I turned it off, inserted my sim, turned it back on, and thankfully it acted like an unlocked phone and i have been using it for the last hour. Hope it stays unlocked. Fingers crossed.

Can someone please try the method I did? Maybe my combination of settings triggered some failsafe unlock option or just a bug? (try 50 times? And preferably when the verification server is down?)

In addition, the only thing I noticed, in settings > APps > disabled section, the Tmobile Device Unlock app is shown as disabled.

Please try and and hope this works for you guys too.

So i'm also in this crappy boat except mine is now different. I tried to put in a different firmware from a different country, i bricked my phone. I sent it out to LG and got the phone back. I don't get the option to click perm, or temp unlock anymore. I get this error now. Device not recognized by your service provider. Please call customer care. IMEI is the same no damn clue what LG did but seems something got screwed up in the process.

T MOBILE G4 Unlock Solution!!

I can get your phones unlocked. It involves the T Mobile App but, its been altered to unlock certain devices that the original T Mobile Unlock app is used to unlock. Go to :

T-MOBILE - MOBILE DEVICE UNLOCK APP (ANDROID OFFICIAL UNLOCK)

Read the listing thoroughly, this method can be used to not only Sim unlock Lg G4, but most modern T Mobile devices such as Galaxy S6, S7, Note 5, etc. Might throw up a discount code if enough interest. It will be permanently unlocked, but if you owe T Mo, you cannot use phone with them. Thanks and OP, I assume it's legit to do this as it seems no other solution has been found, if not i apologize and please remove.:D
[T-Mobile LG G4] ryang872:
If you have the temp unlock, take a backup of your EFS and reflash that every time the temp unlock expires. At least that's how mine's still going
[T-Mobile LG G4] gillim74:
Dumb qiestion but would your efs work on another phone or does it have the imei in it?
[T-Mobile LG G4] ryang872:
It seems to have the IMEI in it. There's the possibility of writing a different IMEI and making a new back up of the temp unlocked efs.

[T-Mobile LG G3] bradhoschar:
Guys. With T-Mobile's 20E modem, is there any way we can incorporate this onto a custom ROM?

I have tried flashing, let's say BlisspPOP, then the 20E bootloader and modem, but still can't achieve voLTE. Is there another magical way for a dev to do this?

Just a thought.

Thanks all!
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
If it was that simple all the custom ROMs would have volte in them.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bradhoschar:
But not all custom ROMs use the latest modem~!
[T-Mobile LG G3] bradhoschar:
Thank you for your insight. It was WAY more work to find a meme instead of being a stand-up guy and helping.

FAIL.
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
The modem is separate from the rom.
[T-Mobile LG G3] jobella:
Services like VoLTE and WiFi calling, or rather the apks that provide them, rely on the carrier (T-Mobile in this case) ROM to sign them. They won't work with non-carrier ROMs like Cyanogenmod or AOSP.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bradhoschar:
Didn't know voLTE was an 'apk'!!??
[T-Mobile LG G3] jobella:
VoLTE is not an apk. The apk is the software application package that has the program code.

Developers don't include WiFi calling or VoLTE because they are not licensed to use the proprietary T-Mobile software that does the WiFi protocol for calling or the VoLTE protocol. If you could get the apk's and try to install them on a custom ROM they wouldn't work because they need to be signed. The signing is done in the ROM that T-Mobile puts on the phone.
