Hello,
I'm buying a LG G4 off ebay and I'm wondering what should I test out to make sure that the phone is genuine and everything is working properly. I mean, I'll test the Bluetooth, WiFi, camera, etc. but is there anything else, for example, check its IMEI or run an Antutu test...What would you guys test out?
Thanks in advance.
Bench mark it then check your score with other g4 online
That would also tell you what hardware its packing..
IF YOUR getting the g4 h815 then logon to the lg website hook up the g4 if its the h815 model and unlock the boot loader then you would know for sure. If you don't know what I'm going on about just do a quick google for lg g4 unlocked bootloader

if you mean all variants i think so am not sure on dual sims..
according to LG problem was fixed since october 2016. but even new phone still get bootloop. the latest ive remeber was a april-16
well its not 100% guarantee but ask for first 3 digits of serial number. and try getting newer.. or at least from 601
that meas 601 means 6 its year 2016 and 01 month january. so a 510 will be 2015 october. from 601 up. the better.
try getting a phone from your country, if you get a phone from other country you must send it there not your country. so as long as it has warranty send it and will be fixed.
My LG G4 (Verizon VS986) has been good to me. It came on MM but i ran the downgrade and went to stock 13b and then 13b rooted, and its been great. Never a single boot-loop, no problems at all. I do suggest, If you have the option to get a NON-Verizon variant, preferably one with an unlocked boot loader, I suggest going to that variant of G4. Unless you don't care about rooting, or any ROM's, then Verizon will do just fine!
don't buy a G4... they have extremely ****ty customer service, they lie a lot and the phone itself has tons of issue
Focus on any other brand except HTC
Which one LG G3 is best to buy and which one is best for rooting and other purposes?
Also which one got marshmallow updates?
Thanks in advance
Maybe he found a G3 that was cheaper than $25
I used to have an LG G3 and while it was a good phone when I had it, the Droid Turbo is a far superior phone. If I was somehow interested in getting another G3 i'd import the Korea Only snapdragon 805 version.

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.
Hello mates,
I'd like to ask you if it is possible to convert an lg g7 thinq "single sim" to "dual sim" in some way or if it exists any good adapter to do it.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
The microsd slot actually can serve as another sim slot if you turn it sideways
Not every module actually supports it even when there is a place for it.

It seems that the hardware is there but it's disabled. IDK how to enable it but even if I could there is no IMEI for the second sim.
After watching the jerryrigs vid about the LG G7 and seeing some VNese vids about the converting process of the korean Samsung s8 and more, I kinda believe that the possibility is there, but it'll take time til someone figure it out. I have the LM G710N korean single sim variant and also want to convert it to dual sim.
I think it will easier to buy one adapter like those sold on simore website.
The only problem is the price...
