LG G4

Did u manage this on an H815P (vodacom) model ?

Please share, that unlock and root process looks hella scary
Apologies I did not realise you were on a network-locked device. Have you googled some options to unlock it on XDA? I have found a lot of tips there that, if followed correctly, worked every time.

The P devices were an issue all the time. I dont know why LG just didnt allow unlocking considering the whole bootloop duckup...

A dev on xda recently came up with an unlock method but its really intense. I might try it. But would prefer a tutorial video lol
 
Has anybody had the problem that every time the phone starts, it gets stuck for about 10 minutes displaying:
"Android is starting...
Optimising app 1 of 1............."?

I tried to google, but seems like a factory reset/restore is the only option :(

I found the problem - Truecaller!!!!

They are aware of the problem and plan an update soon...... fecking wasted hours of my time! :(
 
Well, I'm on Android and my phone is constantly 'hanging' and on it I'm almost always using TrueCaller (latest version from PlayStore)

I have the LG G4 as well.

Try uninstalling Truecaller and check if your phone boots normally
 
My Dad runs my old G4. Anyone know an official Oreo (v7) rom I can flash please, he's still on A.v6. His is a local stock H815P. Out of touch a bit with the G4, thanks.

Nope. The H815P only received one OTA update from Lolipop to MM (6.0)

Vodacom hasn't supported the device at all with OTAs and dont even bother asking about them.

You could have a look here if you are keen on flashing a custom rom...

No support at all
 
Not just us. The nexus 5x, v10 and v20 and i beleive even the g5 all have the bootloop issue.

Just poor workmanship if you ask me.

Personally ill never buy LG again

They got updates passed March 2016, they also aren't boot locked.
 
Hi fellow LG G4 veterans.
I got a LG G4 for R1000 because my Redmi note 4 fell in the ocean after falling off a jetski(long story).
I have the H815P model and cannot see the Marshmellow update through LG bridge or MTN OTA.

My plan is to install Marshmellow then load Nougat for locked bootloaders method via LG UP.

Is Marshmellow Vodacom only OTA?

Damn I hate when that happens, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, glad you solved it though.
