Hello Everyone,

I got the Lg Stylo 4 Metro PCS phone maybe like a month or so ago .

And this issue has been happening randomly where ill be Typing a text and the feedback Vibration just stops , than it'll start working again .

I did multiple tests to see if it was the LG keyboard or Google Keyboard ( not them )

Downloaded a hardware test everything came back perfect

Downloaded a APP called Vibration tester where any place on screen will VIB when touched ( I go to this when it freezes and and sometimes takes a few seconds (maybe like 8 sec ) To start working again.. )

I did a fresh wipe worked for like 3 days then happened again ..

I have only basic apps social media apps and music at this point because i thought it mite have been one of them ..

but i am out of options i don't know if there is someway to look at the coding to see if something is a miss or if its firmware

Hello,

First time Stylo owner here. I picked up a Q710ULM from my local Best Buy a couple weeks ago. I was able to swindle them into price matching the Amazon variant when it was $209.99 :D

So far I really like it. I love the display and the specs more than meet my needs. Well worth $209.99 to say the least. I do quite a bit of computer and device repair on the side. I wanted a phone with a stylus for when my customers pay via card. This is my first non stock Android device. I was sick of paying $700+ for a phone with high end specs that I would never actually utilize. I don't game on my phone at all and don't take many pictures either. The cameras on the Stylo 4 are good enough for me to take before and after pictures of my work.

Any recommendations for me? I have been watching for a stock Android theme on the theme store. I bought the unlocked version for the higher specs and with hope that I could one day flash a stock rom. A stock theme would be good enough for me.

Hi, i'm interested in this phone, the model Q Stylus with mediatek's cpu. How is the Stylus? is like writing on a paper?

The cpu is so bad?

I'm stuck with the Stylo 4 from metro, not too happy about it. Probably would feel a lot better if it had its support from XDA. Maybe some mods and so on. Can't find crap for this phone and I'd imagine it's fairly popular.

I'm thinking about buying an LG stylo 4 plus. I havent seen it sold in USA. Theres a variant called the LG stylo 4 (without the plus at the end). Does anyone know if its possible to root the plus version?
[Android General] deloj:
I found a link about rooting the LG Stylo 4. Will it work? Link is here:

Are you sure it's OK to cross flash ? I Have the dll let me attache it, this has some dlls for lg v30 v35 and stylo 4 so I zip my whole model folder plus the patched LGUP...just let me know if it can be crossflashed.
[Android General] Xx_iDon_xX:
Anything that could be done for the LG Stylo 4? Mine is from boost.

FLASH Q STYLO 4 Metro PCS to T-MOBILE

I successfully changed Q710MS to Q710TS by first uninstalling all things LGUP and rebooting. Then I installed LGUP DUAL MODE from here [https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76995781&postcount=26]. Then I check the box "partition". Choose kdz. Click start. Check the box "select all". Done. When device reboots, the phone will throw an error but will have a "RESET" button. Tap that. Wait 10 minutes for the start up screen. Do not risk flashing anything other than the version you are on. If your metro pcs is on 10j then flash the 10j for t-mobile. If your metro is on 10g then flash 10g for t-mobile. you have been warned. Happy Flashing.
[Android General] Gwillinger:
So this will unlock the phone on another network basically? Can it be done with boost?
[Android General] gr8ful doug:
This will not unlock SIM/network. It only changes the UI from Metro's blue apps, splash screen, ECT. to T-MO's pink ones. Although I believe it will bypass FRP. I'm gonna test now and will update.
[Android General] jcarlos_7:
Does anyone know a way to sim unlock this phone from sprint network? I want to use it internationally.
[Android General] gr8ful doug:
sprint unlock?

From what I understand. Any existing post-paid customer can unlock any Sprint device by logging into their account at Sprint's website and claim a need for international travel. The page will ask what device will be traveling with you. Fill out the form and voila! internationally unlocked. Needs an active Sprint account in good standing.
[Android General] jcarlos_7:
Thank you for the answer, I’m aware of that option, but that’s not my case, I should have provided more information, I got the phone on eBay and currently don’t have a sprint account.

I did a quick search for unlocking services before buying it but didn’t realized until now that none of them claim to be able to unlock stylo 4, just stylo 3.
[Android General] gr8ful doug:
I actually subscribe to a few services and have a few boxes, and as of right now, there is no unlocking solution. I would recommend disabling automatic updates in developer options. There will be no upgrade of Android version for this phone. Any future update is to protect T-MO's investment. Not yours. So when the unlock becomes possible, you'll be prepared to apply the unlock fix, when ever that may be.
[Android General] jcarlos_7:
Thanks for the info, I’m still able to return the phone to the seller, I’ll have to pay for shipping but I think that’s better than not being able to fully use the phone.
[Android General] Xx_iDon_xX:
Is there anyway to install a modified version of Facebook? On the LG Stylo 4? Mine is from Boost Mobile. I tried to install the original one also from the Play Store but it doesn't do anything. Tried settings. Disable, cache uninstall and etc and still nothing. I could only install FB lite which is horrible
[Android General] turborush:
gcam?

Any working GCam rom for stylo 4+ (LM-Q710WA)? Only one i've found that works is a old version for the Q7, gcam 4.2 or something... but it definitely is a huge improvement over the original stylo camera by far!
[Android General] Spookymyo:
I bought the unlocked version of the stylo 4 for my daughter (Q710ULM). She's on Sprint. I personally have always got the unbranded unlocked version through B&H photo. LG G4, LG G5, LG G6, and LG G7 on Verizon. Straight out of the box the hotspot works. No root needed. But with this LG phone it's not working. I go into the settings and set up the hotspot. It doesn't prompt the usual Sprint window for purchasing the tethering plan. When I try to toggle the switch to on it briefly comes on then turns back off. Anyone know a fix?

Edit: Hey thanks guys for all your help...oh wait... ?
[Android General] superman_006:
Ive got a stylo 4 ( Q710AL) with sprint and trying to root with magisk. Anyone got this to work? For whatever reason I haven't gotten kingo root to work on anything made in the last 5 years or so.

sprint unlock tethering

Try clockworkmod's tether app. it's a one time fee of $10 bucks I think with 2 week trial, I think. ...... @ MOD- Not trying to promote paid stuff. Just trying to help. I am grateful for XDA
[Android General] Spookymyo:
Thanks for the response. Clockworkmod tether app only works with USB. That works already straight out of the box. I'm trying to figure out how to get the regular WiFi hotspot to work.

Hey, I just got the stylo q+ (canada), anything I should do first so I don't regret it later? Like unlocking bootloader (I don't know how though)? Seems like the phone has nonexistent support everywhere on the internet.

At present this device does not appear to have an bootloader unlock method. I've been subscribed to this thread hoping it will get posted here if someone learns of it happening.

[Android General] pixofmypenis:
Been doing my research, but can't find anything conclusive.

I've had a metro LG stylo 4 for 7-8 months now and lately this thing is slower than molasses in January. I don't have lots of apps or memory space used by me., and do smart clean everyday. Which of the 200+ factory apps can I chuck safely?

And can I do anything to improve the camera? I use it for work and my G6 was way better?

TIA :svetius:

Some body may help me.
[Android General] :
Try using open camera app from play store. Has a few tweaks in settings. That's what I use on my ph2n and works well. I sure wish bootloader could be unlocked. I'd be all over it. Check out sd maid for cleaning. Very nice app and its not malware like MANY of the cleaner apps are on google play store.

does anyone have git branch for custom rom or working on starting?

is twrp flashable?

did oem unlock work to use adb to unlock bootloader?

had anyone edited unlock.bin to unlock(branch for edit)?
[Android General] diordnAMRZAR:
I just bought a LG Q Stylo+ and overall am pleased with the build and general quality for the price: 160,00$CAD. Bought the phone outright. and like anyone else posting or reading here I would lke to get root on the device if only to delete things I do not want and or have the bootloader unlocked so I can install Android Oreo stock with pico open gapps. Bare minimum -- and eliminate startup and shutdown music. Stuff like that. Doesen't look likely to happen any time soon. But I'd like to throw out an idea since no one here as mentioned it: JTAG the device and see if it's possible to alter the firmware to at least have access to the bootloader functions and install a custom recovery. This would mean someone sacrificing a unit for the cause of course, or starting a fund to purchase a test unit and have a go at the JTAG port if there is one, and there's a good chance there is.

In general I do not like LG for their control over their parts distribution and hardware. Their household appliances -- it can be almost impossible to obtain certain parts for an LG washing machine for example, without a service call from an authorized service centre and as such this policy seems consistent with LG locking down their phones. Maybe they have our best interests in mind.

So what of the idea of funding a JTAG the LMQ710 project? I don't have the skills to discover how it would be done but I can follow up after the technique is established.

Hello everyone. I need help. PLEASE

I just bought a Stylo 4. (LM710AL) Little did I know how difficult this device was going be...... I did the data reset, and was going through the motions of bypassing the FRP. There is no youtube video to be played? I have unliocked a quite of few of these and never had any trouble at all before. This boost mobile version has really began to frustrate me. I need it done ASAP. Also it's telling me that javascript has been disabled and I can't use chrome on it either and can't open setting. Somebody please help me.

[Android General] shinyquagsire23:
I took a look at LAF (lafd) for the meme or whatever and it seems that with 11d there's not much to look at, I guess. I did notice that for some reason the READ command has some extra fails if LAF is "not certificated"? It loooooks like it can be bypassed as long as you SEEK_CUR and keep the offset at 0 the entire time, but it will always read out 0x6000 bytes. It's interesting though, they added a command 0x26181666 onto RSVD specifically to authenticate some very specific READ operations. Literally just has you pass a signature in which gets verified by a separate public key, but I can't find anything in LGUP which signs anything (though it does have checks specifically for that command, dunno what for though).

No backdoors in the exec stuff either, though I can pull dmesg which is cool, let me grab my device ID w/o bricking into fastboot, since I guess that's the only way to get to fastboot on this device.

Not sure who to ping about LAF stuff but uhhhhh, [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] do you think there's anything worthwhile to explore here? Not really sure what the boot verification is like between LG devices either, seems all the higher-end ones get broken via engineering builds and such. Though my ARB is at 1 so idk, could be sol.

EDIT: k sifted through aboot out of curiosity and there's literally just no way to get to fastboot w/o bricking into it
[Android General] runningnak3d:
That is so the GPT can still be read without sending the key. If you try to read anything besides the GPT, as you saw -- it will fail.

Yep, that is the command that sends the key. Unfortunately, unless a newer copy of LG UP leaks that has the key, we will never be able to do READs again.

Yep, they pulled it ALL. The new version of lafd is locked down completely. I am actually surprised that they even left dmesg in.

It isn't just the higher end devices, LG is pushing the new version of lafd out to all their phones that are still getting updates, and they are usually incrementing ARB so it is real had to get an older version flashed. Even though the laf partition isn't checked for ARB, LG UP will not allow you to flash a lower ARB version KDZ without being patched to ignore the ARB check. If the phone ships with Pie -- the laf, boot AND system partitions are checked for ARB as well (this is a new requirement from Google) -- but the phone has to SHIP with Pie, not just get an upgrade to it.

In the old days you could wipe recovery, and then use the key combo to try and boot to recovery -- when aboot realizes there is no recovery partition it would drop you to fastboot. Not sure if that works anymore or not. I know it doesn't on the V35 and up. Even if you can get to fastboot, more than likely they pulled oem unlock and flash commands. Alternatively, you could wipe laf and try to boot to download mode. However, if that doesn't work or there are no useful fastboot commands, you will have to wait till there is an OTA update to get laf back. *NEVER* wipe both laf and recovery at the same time or you will be stuck with a phone that will still be usable, but will never get another upgrade ;)

Hope this helps...

Just picked up a Stylo 4 supposedly through US Cellular; Q710ULM. It is stuck on the boot screen. I can get DL mode to pop up breifly, then it just reboots. Uppercut and regular LG UP shows 'Unknown'. I got it to pop up the barcodes once. No idea how I did that. Anywho... help!

[Android General] Xplorer4x4:
Just read the entire thread.. Doesn't look like Stylo 4 had any hope of root much less roms and bootloader unlock. I might live with out roms till getting a better phone but would need root at least. I'm hoping I missed something... I got it for Sprint.
[Android General] Cookster128:
I can't even get DL mode to work right. It just freezes up. Factory reset freezes after telling it 'Yes'. As far as I can tell, there is no way into a bootloader. Sad to say, but I think this phone may be bricked.
[Android General] Cookster128:

[Android General] Cookster128:
Finally cleared the Google lock as well. None of the YouTube videos worked as they just came out with a security patch 7-1-19. This takes away the "Help & feedback" button that we usually used to bypass FRP. I gave a YouTube guy the "how I did it" version and he said he'd make a video of it soon. If you need help with that, let me know. I might be able to fumble through it again.
[Android General] LinuxAndroid4evr:
I've found that this phone sucks donkey !#$@. Some apps break for now reason and close automatically. Some apps won't even load correctly. It's been slow since I bought it 10 days ago. The memory allocation and usage in this phone is bs. I like the phone and I do like a lot of the features but the downside to this phone is far heavier then the upside. I am pissed!! Answer me this, how can I call this my phone when someone else configures it and sets it up for me and then locks it to where I can't change anything as if they know how I want my settings. I'm pretty sure this is going to be the last LG phone I get.
[Android General] LinuxAndroid4evr:
I dont think that's the only way to do it I got into fastboot rather easy actually considering. I'll try and get a screenshot prove it

I have a question hopefully someone can answer! I was messing around with the phone trying to root it and just tinkering around with it. ( yes I am fully aware there is no root or bootloader unlock or anything like that for this phone. But the model name of this phone came up as qc7 a could anyone help me make sense of that.?

---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

Okay well I can upload the picture it keeps saying bad request but I did just do it.

Power your phone off plug your USB cable into a computer or laptop it will not work if you're plugged into a charging block .Hold the volume down button and plug the phone in to the charging cable( hopefully you have the one your phone came with) and it goes straight to fastboot.
[Android General] Cookster128:
That must be a carrier enabled/disabled thing. On the V20, it works on the H918 but not the LS997. It also did not work on the Stylo 4 LM410QLM... model number may be incorrect, going from memory. It was for US Cellular.

Hey how did you get it flashed? mine has small white text that says all slots are unbootable did you get kdz or something?
[Android General] Cookster128:
Does the screen look like the one in the post previous to the one you quoted? After that screen, I turned off the phone and tried to enter DL mode again (Hold volume up while plugging the phone into the computer, release volume when it shows DL mode screen). It took a long time for the Firmware Update screen to appear, but it finally did. I tried LG UP, but it failed and told me to use LG Bridge on the Software Update tab. Worked beautifully after that! Hope it works for you!

I did have the kdz file, but it was unnecessary. LG Bridge downloaded its own thing.

Does anyone possess a boot image for the MetroPCS variant of this phone. Or can anyone come into possessing a boot image dump? Cuz if so that would be swell
[Android General] Cookster128:
Yes, I saw it as an option when I plugged it into my computer. Obviously don't need to do that, but if you have a double USB-C cable, then I guess you could charge a friend's phone.

I checked on Android file host for the firmware; didn't find anything. I'm sure there's a .kdz floating around somewhere. If you need stock reflash, can't you enter DL mode and flash with LG bridge or LG UP?
[Android General] SpikeyPsyche:
I'm looking for the latest USA factory unlocked firmware for the Stylo 4 (KDZ file), does anyone know where I can find that? I have looked everywhere I can think of and everyone has carrier specific firmware, but not the one I am looking for.

[Android General] Cookster128:
Eh, I tried. It's the ones I downloaded but then didn't need. LG Bridge downloaded the proper .kdz for me. I'm USA too. I'm not sure why you stated that again... The first two are NOA, whatever that is, but the rest are for US Cellular. They use unlocked phones so the firmware for the QLM is widely available. Sorry it's not what you need though.
[Android General] SpikeyPsyche:
The region code USA for LG is the specific suffix code for a factory unlocked LG Stylo 4. The hardware is slightly different than most carrier Stylo 4's.

No its not no one is working on unlocking this device so no solution will probably every come. I need the MTK DA file for the Q710AL to resotre strock firmware on the device if someone gets this file for me i can also work on unlocking this device but cant do anything without the DA file.
