When access to the Recovery stops here
What does your software version say in your system settings?
Theres something not right with the picture that you posted.
When you boot into recovery it should prompt you with whether you want to factory reset your phone not show that. I would most likely say you bought a fake LG G3
Brother if its too good to be true it probably is, no store in their right mind would sell a $400-$500 phone on western markets for half price unless there was some defect with it or if it was second hand.
plz see imei

Hey guys I have the UK version of G3 its 855 version
I flashed the 10a Europe firmware and in the settings it showed v10a-HKG-XX
Then I redownloaded the europe firmware and it still showed the same
Then I used my IMEI to check which version is for my device and downloaded that and it still says HKG - at the moment it says v10h-HKG-XX
So is this not a UK version phone, i got it from amazon?

If less than 14 days I recommend you contact Amazon customer services and request a replacement. Even if bought from Amazon market place. You may find as I did with a Singapore version I received, that I could not get LTE connectivity. The firmware is tied the IMEI.

that was indeed the case thank you so much - amazon accepted it back for a full refund - back to my nexus 5... was a nice run with G3
Hey Syphern, Sounds like the same one i had. Was it from SkynetShopping [emoji12] saying it was uk version and stock held and sent by Amazon? I had one the other day. Set it up and let it do it's updates then checked the version and it said hkg not eur versions, I also had no 4g.
I called LG support which where very helpful and i told them the imei to which they confirmed it was a none UK handset and would have no warranty cover!
Sent it straight back for refund and went in to Carphone warehouse and got one which is all good. [emoji3]

I'm currently browsing in Qatar and keep seeing N930X as the model number for the displayed Note 7s in various different shops - Is this the Middle-East regional variant or is the "X" part of model number just used for display handsets??
What model number does your Note 7 have if you have purchased it in the Middle-East? Is it Dual-SIM??
dubai - n930fd
I live in mexico, and the displayed units have that 930x too, the model sold here is 930F, so, I think that the "X" indicates a demo unit
Philippines, X is also the display unit and FD is sold here.
Finland, N930X is the unit in the stores and N930F being sold.
Thanks people - so to confirm, N930X = a demo unit model number.
I managed to check the retail box today (...should have done it before posting this thread, duh!) - I can confirm that in Qatar it is N930FD (dual-SIM).
Now to decide if I should go for it or still stick to my Note5 for now in the unlikely hope of custom ROMs to extend its appeal-life......
man, if you found some help, do not forget the thanks button
I need help putting another n930 variant on n930x

Only way to make it work like a phone is to change the mainboard. The X models are demo unit with all the functions except cellular.

Hey guys,
Last year in December I got the LG H815T as a present. 2 Weeks ago the phone started boot looping and I spoke to LG UK and they acknowledged (during a live chat) that the phone needed repairing and when I gave them my SNEI they told me my model is a "Hong Kong" variant and therefore won't take it to be fixed because they only support EU models. I am currently emailing the LG in Hong Kong to see if they can help but it is not looking promising.
Can anyone please advise on what I should do?
Get ****ed, just like every LG customer ever.
No joke, you're likely screwed, here in south america they don't even acknowledge the bootloop issue, your best bet is emailing LG in China but that probably wont do much. If anything sell it as a screen replacement and remember to never purchase a phone or any other garbage manufactured by LG again.
I see this from Hong Kong on Ebay: 3 Colors 5.5" Unlocked LG G4 AT&T H810 32GB Smartphone 4G LTE 16MP 3GB RAM Radio. The Radio is described as FM with RDS. I don't know exactly what that means but it looks like it comes with a real fm radio.
The most interesting item is
Operating System
Android 5.1 Lollipop
Firmware update
Android 6.0 Marshmallow
I don't know if that means the update is already installed or not. If not I think the 810 can be bootloader unlocked and rooted, again I am not positive but from what I have read it that was the way I understood it, but the bootloader has been locked for so long I dont think has been a lot of custom rom development. I may send the seller a message and see if I can find out the OS.
Price for this is $128, with 30 day money back return after i receive it (i pay shipping to send it back), which could take a while, and a one year warranty but I am not sure if LG US honors the warranty. At least with the long shipping time I could read up some on root methods (if possible). I also wonder if it gets an 810 update how that would effect the FM radio since the US versions have the radio disabled. Lots of questions but this could be nice. I have a phone on AT&T and get 4g LTE in my house so even at worst I would think without rooting and just staying stock this could get me a couple of years or so use until 5g starts forcing people to upgrade.
If anyone knows anything about these Hong Kong 810 G4's any info would be very helpful.
Hi everyone,
The screen on my H815P broke. On eBay replacement screens are listed as being for the H815. Will these work? A shop in Luxembourg refused to repair my phone because of the extra "P" in my model number, which I understand means its a model sold in Latam and South Africa (strange because I bought the phone on Amazon.de).
Also, is there a way of knowing if the screen I buy really is a genuine LG screen?
Any help is really appreciated.
I think the main difference is the modem. I'm 99.99% sure that all G4 editions have the same (awesome battery hungry) screen. Also, the only way you can be certain you bought a genuine LG screen is by buying the screen from LG.
Hi. The main difference is the motherboard. H815 (no letter) can be bootloader unlocked and H815P doens´t. The rest is all the same. In case of the screen. I was replace the board from my H815P to H815 (same screen and battery) and works normally and fine.
In order to know if the screen is or not genuine, depends from shoper and rating by customers and other -buy&sell pages- matters.
If you purchase a screen, replace it without warry becausae it will work.

Cheers. I've gone through to the LG spare parts website, which belongs to an outside company and it requires the model number for the screen. How the heck am I supposed to know that?
Anyone know a link to a genuine screen that delivers in Europe? I've been checking out youtube videos and I might attempt this repair myself.

Thanks. If you know of a European supplier, please advise. I tried contacting a supposedly official LG parts supplier out of Portugal that was recommended on one of the threads here on xda but they haven't responded.
