Thank you, it is just what I have done, and all is great, nut, I can only boot the rcovery with fastboot, impossible to flash. An error occured with ADB mentionning problem :

Unknown partion: 'recovery-TWRP-3.0.2-20160712-ZUK_Z2_PRO-CN-wzsx150.img'

error: cannot determine image filename for 'recovery-TWRP-3.0.2-20160712-ZUK_Z2_PRO-CN-wzsx150.img'

I will try to find more.

Thank's again!
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Tek5:
Seems like you don‘t tell fastboot on which partition to flash TWRP.

Try this one:

fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery path/to/twrp/img

Hey guys. I'm currently running Genisys Rom on my H811 and I've received a notification saying that an android system update has been downloaded and is ready to install. I looked into stopping OTA updates but cannot find any of the .apks mentioned in most threads to disable the updates. Does anyone have any ideas on how to delete the update and prevent future downloads? Thanks in advance!

[G4 General] F-L-Y-E-R:
Unfortunately that's how it is nowadays. You just need to enter your pin, place a signature or pass your money to someone and the deal is done but when something happens to you and you contact them regarding your issue, they basically try to get rid of you as soon as possible and aren't giving you any additional information, all they say to you is exactly the same that you can find on their website. This is regarding everything, from broadband, mobile contracts to home appliances or electronics.

The only service I had success and good customer service so far is Amazon. I bought a laptop on Amazon UK but instead I received some dutch/german version of it, with non UK keyboard etc. I wasn't bothered to complain as the laptop wasn't for me but after a year it started to freeze randomly, I noticed it from the beginning but I didn't really care but after some time it became almost unusable even thought it was a new laptop with decent specs. So finally I decided to try and return the product, unfortunately on their website it said that I cannot do it anymore and even manufacturer was giving only one year warranty which was also confirmed by their live support. But I have good knowledge and I told them that something is wrong with it and one year warranty for a laptop is a joke and guess what they said that I can send it back and they will issue a full refund! It sound unreal but it's probably true that Amazon has better policy than OEMs themselves. Obviously it's only available in small number of countries so not a lot of people can take advantage of it.

This is the reason i created the thread called LAWSUIT against LG for making defective devices..

We have progress there too please go to my thread in general on first page n contact girard n gibbs they are running an investigation on lawsuit against lg...tell them about your experience
[G4 General] GTMoraes:
Bought this phone last week. Read about this issue and I'm very worried. I'm with an H815P with serial beginning with 505.

Hope that if it breaks (which will most likely do), it breaks within warranty period. However, if it indeed breaks outside warranty period, a lawyer told me that LG has to fix it because it's a hidden defect, which falls inside some consumer laws here in Brazil. And as LG already acknowledged the issue, it would be a breeze to make them fix, and receive some money out of it, also.

My sister also had her G4 ILAPO last year, she bought on September, and it died in February. They quickly swapped her phone with another G4, serial beginning with 602 (LG France). Unfortunately, she lost her vacation photos... (she learnt how to use Google Photos backup now, however).

My phone was bought in Brazil, is registered to Brazil and I have the receipt made for Brazil, so I guess, and hope, that I'm covered. But I can't think of anything other than LG having to issue a recall. This is some serious issue.

Best of the luck for you, man. Following your development and hoping for the best.
[G4 General] Tech James:
My LG G4 sucks! it overheats all the time, the serial number is 505 too!

What phone should i get? The S7 edge is just a stupid gimmick. How good is the Oneplus 3?
[G4 General] WTF?:
a LG G4 should not overheat - eliminate misbehaving apps such as Facebook & Facebook messenger, mine runs so cool that I have to check to see if it is on or not!

---------- Post added at 03:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

don't be worried, LG has sold over 7 million of these phones, a few hundred or perhaps even a few thousand have broken, which means that 999 out of every 1000 have NOT broken!

it's mostly scare-mongering, don't fall for it!
[G4 General] jinderation:
Yes please this issue needs to addressed seriously hopefully ur video is going to spread awareness please also mention about the V10 ILAPO recently reported by android authority
[G4 General] rirozizo:
you do realize you're basically spamming the site with your nonsense.

we've been scammed for over 600$. Our right to own a device for two years, three, heck... a decade, is now being violated because LG doesn't know how to properly connect the CPU to their board. Why do I have to fall back to my 2012 Nexus 4 after a year of using my G4?

Our right is our right and if you still have your device running fine, don't boast about it much because you're gonna eat your words later... all 505 of them ;)
[G4 General] WTF?:
Actually I'd say it is the bootloop fear-mongers who are spamming the 99.9% of us LG G4 owners who have had no issues! (over 7 million of us)

In fact, this phone is so bulletproof, I am actually buying another brand new one this week for a gift for my GF, since mine has withstood my very abusive treatment for nearly 16 months! (dropped over 100 times, etc.)

I would consider a different phone, but all other phones have shortcomings, and this one has none, whether it's the removable battery, unlockable bootloader to stop ads and bloat, the best camera of any phone, the awesome screen, sound, speed, reception, mic quality, reliability, durability, battery life, etc. :p
[G4 General] gedas5:
Unless you got bored of your GF and you want to split then why not... go ahead with buying LG G4 for her... :good:
[G4 General] rirozizo:
well good luck.

But stop posting OT in ILAPO related threads.
[G4 General] banesi:
you're totally right, g4 is just a fantastic phone for unbeatable value, would recommend it to everyone

sent from 505 bulletproof G4 ;)
[G4 General] Remybr:
I'm from Brazil.

10 months after purchase I ha the ILAPO problem.

I was worried because I had a lot of photos and videos that I need to backup it (I use Google autobackup, but I need the hi res too).

I tried to put in the freezer, not work. So I bake the mainboard. And worked!! At least 23h. ILAPO again...

OH sh*t.

Well, not to loose, let's call LG.

I entered the site, and search for repair. There is a section that you describe the problem and so they send one code to you ship in postal service. So I did.

5 days later, they send me back the phone, and in the service list, they change the mainboard and the battery.

I was worried about the warranty, because,well, I opened the phone, freeze the board, later backed....but had no problem. They fixed and now the phone is OK.
[G4 General] rirozizo:
The only tamper indicator that I found was the sticker that changes colors when the device is damaged by water. Even that sticker didn't get triggered when put in the freezer. So weird :cyclops:

But anyway, it's great that you actually had a result with LG! :)
[G4 General] raptorddd:
you said you sell phones right.? maybe am wrong but i think you said that not sure. .. no wonder you defending LG...

i love mine.. it had bootloop this i replacement.. but the only thing i hate about LG. is this .. they should give more warranty on the bootlooping devices they have... only for the bootloop issue.. 1 year isnt enough... am against getting bootloop after warranty.. if they are deffective.. i dont care for bootloop during warranty... only after...
[G4 General] Symphomed:
I had a dual sim model H818P, and had a bootloop 15 days ago approximatively, I took it to LG mobile service, they told me they were going to replace the motherboard, yesterday they called me and wanted me to swapp it with a new LG V10, I refused, I want my G4 back.

They told me it's going to take some time to import a motherboard with 600+ serial number...

I was on 5.1 rooted with Xposed installed, I had done a Titanium backup fortunately, but what is scaring me is that the new phone they're gonna give me will be on Marshmallow, which is unrooted yet, bye bye to my titanium backup. :(

old app,not updated anymore,and not compatible with latest Android...

now you can pair the Xbox one S controller (design lab included)with Bluetooth

BUT you need to update firmware first and add a profile to it with the Xbox accessories app (Xbox one or win10 store)﻿

or buy a cheap controller like Xiaomi ones.

As the title states, i cant find an option to disable this and its very annoying. There used to be an option in the fingerprint section but its now gone.

The general unlock noise off/on doesn't work and I dont get a noise if I unlock with PIN, this noise (dong), only occurs when I unlock with fingerprint.

Bug or deleted option on latest update?

EDIT - turned it on and off a few times in unlock notification section, its now stopped.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Anjow:
I just upgraded to WM6 then restored my previous PIM data by replacing PIM.vol. Each time I tried to use one of my speed dial numbers it gave me an error saying the number could not be found - however it dialled it anyway!

The error persisted, so I thought I'd delete and re-add my speed dial numbers. However when I try to do this it tells me "Failure saving speed dial entry. Cancelling save." regardless of what number I try and save.

Does anyone know anything about this or how I can fix it?

Bonus question: can someone suggest a registry editor?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] mugglesquop:
sorry, cant help with the Speed dial problem, but a good registry editor is Resco Registry editor. It seems to be a popular choice :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpookehAndroid:
I need a better description. I would love to help. But I am confused about what you are asking.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] DarkerJava:
I have found many sites with conflicting answers, so please don't tell me "google is your best friend" for my silly/already asked questions...

So first what I have: a 5 month old, non modified M4 aqua (E2306), bought from a Canadian carrier. The firmware version is 26.1.A.3.111 (bootloader locked). My goal is to root my phone when I update to MM (using the method PiSpecialist has posted, I cannot post links), but I haven't done so for the fear of losing TA partition when unlocking BL. There is currently no way to root MM with locked bootloader.

Now, my questions:

1. When I unlock my BL, I will lose the TA partition (DRM keys) of the device. Yet to back these up, I need root access. Should I root my device while it is still on Lollipop? There are ways to root BL Lollipop correct? If so, please link a preferable way to do this.

2. Will I receive OTA updates after rooting my phone? If not, I should download and flash firmware from Xperifirm?

3. Will I lose root when flashing new firmware (e.g. flashing MM to a rooted Lollipop device)?

4. Is it dangerous to flash official firmware to a rooted phone? What is a safe way?

I found that dealing with TA is dangerous and can hard brick a phone. Anybody found a reliable script/tool to do this?

So this is pretty much what I am planning to do so far, if the above is correct:

Root my phone while it is still on Lollipop with a locked bootloader.

Backup my TA partition.

Get MM (from either flashing, or OTA, depending if I still get OTA updates)

Unlock bootloader (as there is no way to root for locked bootloaders in MM)

Root phone while it is on MM (if I don't keep the root after updating from lollipop)

Restore TA partition

DONE! :)

Not as many questions as I thought...:p. Any other advice/things to look out for would be appreciated :)
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
Theres no way yet to have root in mm /system, it needs to be in kernel and you cant use custom kernel and restore ta. All the questions you did are already answered in forums.

But in case your interested ill tell you what i did step by step to have original TA part with drm and "tunned" but unrooted /system.

Keep in mind that your warranty is void, you will loose all your data and you may brick your device. Messing up with TA partition is serious and dangerous stuff. The following steps are just to tell you what i did.

If you want to do so, do it at your own risk.

1. Clean install LP 3.120 via flashtool wipping user data.

2. Root with rootkit 3.xxx and installed twrp for BL

3. Backup TA

4. Unlock bootloader and install MM fw via flashtool

5. Now with BU installed boot.img and recovery.img

6. Now with root, deleted unwanted apps, installed adblocker, installed xposed, tunned some settings/apps etc.

7. When /system was how i wanted, i made a backup via twrp (data, system, cache).

8. Clean install LP 3.120 again via flashtool, wipping user data.

9. Root via rootkit and installed twrp for BL.

10. Restored TA partition

11. Restored the backup via twrp and SHUTTED DOWN the phone because itll not match with the rest of the fw.

12. Installed MM fw again via flashtool but this time, excluded /system part and DID NOT WIPE user data nor Apps log. (as ive restored MM /data backup before)

13. Started the phone.

Now i have MM with drm, locked bootloader, unrooted, xposed working with few modules, adblocker applied and some other mods. Also i receive updates via sony apps such as whats new. And the low speaker volume seems to be fixed.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] sucsong:
Thank you.

What adblocker can be install?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
Btw, false alarm regarding speaker volume, it still saturate with bass at higher volume resulting in a lower and kinda cracked volume output, it may need to be tweaked, or even try to port LP audio parametres to MM rom, if thats even a thing and possible, until sony fix it (if they do lol). Ive tested a variety of songs
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] harisdelic:
Is there possibility for system to stay rooted? Btw how do u enter into recovery on MM ?

Tnx :)
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
Theres no method at this moment to put su binaries in /system, but if you dont mind you can keep the root as long as you dont restore your TA / lock bootloader as it needs a stock kernel signed by sony.

I enter twrp recovery in MM by holding power+vol down

---------- Post added at 09:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Ive installed adaway that blocks via host file.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] harisdelic:
Thanks man. I will try metod you write above right now :D
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
No problem :). Here in m4 aqua forums you have everything you need to backup TA, unlock bootloader, flash, drowngrade etc. Just follow all the tutorials carefully good luck ;)
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] sucsong:
I don't understand about "excluded /system part"? Flash only system file or everything
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
No, you exclude system as you restored it early via twrp, flash the rest of the firmware like modem, kernel etc. Remember to dont wipe data and apps log also

Edit: if you flash system youll loose the changes you did thats why you need to exclude from bundle when choosin in flashtool
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] DarkerJava:
Thanks! This was what I was looking for!

Also, will you be able to root after this? (If someone comes up with a method)
