Firmware Bloatware cleaning?

So, I have a doubt.
I have the European h815 network unlocked with the buil number LMY47D and software version V10d-214-01 but with the carrier bootscreen and a lot of swiss bloatware.
If I flash the stock unbranded European firmware would I receive the normal OTA updates and the bloatware will disapear? My g4 is completely stock, no root or custom recovery whatsoever.
And should i flash the Europe general or the Europe open kdz file?
Or wich kdz file should i flash?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

No matter what you flash, you'll always receive updates for what was your stock rom only, anyway you can flash any other firmware to remove the customizations.
I suggest Poland 10E

is there any way to root this version without tripping knox? I just wanna root on g925tuvs3dojc and not install a custom recovery. Would the previous ping-pong-root versions still work on this?

aww man my battery has gotten so bad recently. I've had about an hour and a half SOT and wanted to use root to help me get a sufficient amount of battery to aid me throughout the day

Mine started doing the same thing as soon as i rooted but i noticed that i now had the H+ signal icon as well i think its because in all the roms ive tried they dont use tmobiles stock signal files. It seems like they only use the european files. They are compatible but dont give the same results.
So yu dont need to downgrade just have a stock rooted deodexed rom for tmobile but they dont upload that for some reason. Yu can also tell they are changing to many things cuz they give yu the super ugly note icons that look like bubbles and the s6 edge has a differnt more traditional looking touchwiz.

I had the same issue with battery and installed DU Battery Saver (paid version), and ran it twice. The new battery and toolkit I purchased are still sitting on my
desk after a Month. Battery life is averaging 10 hours with moderate use. Hope this helps you as it did me...

Thought I saw in the update info that it adds the ability to text 911 as part of the update

Nope only way to root is with custom recovery and you can use system less root. No Samsung Pay but Android Pay works

New H815 user: disappointing experience. Pls help

Hello,
I just bought a new LG G4 from my mobile provider.
After being a happy HTC one user for more than 2 1/2 years the battery got really bad and I couldn't leave home without my power pack.
So I've switched now to the LG G4. The removable battery was my main decisive factor.
But I'm now very disappointed.
The battery drains very fast. It's no improvement to my old phone and I'm again carrying the battery pack with me :crying:
Even while typing this the battery level dropped about 7%
Now I'm considering returning the phone and choosing another one.
The phone is branded by three *annoying* and it's running Android 6.0 V20e.232.10, build MRA58K.
I would like to try to install another ROM or root the phone to see whether the battery life can improve significantly. But not sure about that because I'll probably won't be able to return the phone then in case I still won't be satisfied.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you and regards

Mine did it too. If your drainer is android system keep awake, then reboot when you remove the charger.
Anyways, because of that now i have cm instead of stock.

i have heard that MM battery is bad compared to LP.. maybe try to flash KDZ of lollipop but read carefully and see if you can downgrade.. as theres antirollback v1-2-3
foe exmaple my h811 i can downgrade to LP 10N..antirollback v2 and MM 20i is V2 so i can change from that LP version to MM 20i.. new released has v3. not sure about your variant.. just lettign you know..if you want to downgrade then ask and read before flashing KDZ... i get over 4 hours with root and debloated.. using whats app facebook app and 4G..

20h
try 20h version. much better. 20e has battery issues. i'm on 20h and after a full day, i have 20-30 %

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------
just an addition: u should install with lg up - refurbish and the first few there is a drain until the rom settles. after that this is the best rom - without loosing waranty- that there is

Thanks a lot for your suggestions!
Really appreciate it!
I'd like to try V20h.
Is it possible to return later to my stock Austrian Three V20e ROM?

What is your 3 first sn numbers ? From 505 until 508 are prone to everheating and battery draining issues also try to install battery stats to see what's draining you battery. By the way try to disable activity log from settings - about phone it seems to affect battery

Use a clean stock rom its marshmallow version good battery life u dont need root or anything ...if ur already on MM just use lg flashtool cse method or u can use LGUP method goto my thread and see the comments...u will be happy after flashing this update hit like it helps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-twn-june-security-patch-update-t3407694/page8

My serial starts with 603. So it should be fine.
For now I've disabled the activity log and restarted the phone as suggested. I hope it helps.
I don't want to lose the the option to return my phone.

This is not acceptable by any standard. This is not a ”this rom has terrible battery issues, try another” thing.
I'm on stock marshmallow and have more than 5 hours SOT, phone lasts more than a day with moderate use (anything but gaming).
Find out what the culprit is using programs that do battery stats. It may even be a defective battery.
Flashing only to solve this, is like formatting a PC to solve delayed start.
Edit: in general older phones had much better battery life than newer phones, mainly due to smaller and lower resolution screens, fewer and less sensitive sensors, etc. This may come as a surprise, but unfortunately this is how things are right now. A phone that can last more than a day is a good phone battery wise these days.

I would recommend to backup sensitive stuff and flash with LGUp the v20F KDZ from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/firmware-lgh815bal-baltics-01-baltics-t3394113 (I live in Europe). I got better battery life than with v20D that I had before and zero issues so far (I have it for about a month now). I did not unlock or root it yet because of the dreaded bootloop issue.

Thank you all for your suggestions!
I was at the three shop today were I've bought the phone. Returning it is not possible any more, although it's not even been 7 days since I bought it.
I could send it in to get it checked.
So I guess I will try to flash one of the suggested kdz.
Too bad it's not possible to root MM without unlocking the bootloader.
You can find attached my today's battery stats. Maybe you think it's ok. But I'm disappointed.
Regards

Sounds great! Thank you!
So I could flash Lollipop and root it without unlocking bootloader.
Can I later return easily to my stock ROM?
I think I've just found it by analyzing the LG Bridger traffic:

Yes remember bootloader unlocking is only custom recovery like TWRP for installing custom roms and making backups and yes u r flashing stock lollipop u can go back to any stock rom u like

firmware fqd2

Anyone flash the newest ota? Any differences?

Just updated yesterday. I was hoping it would finally be on 5.1.1 but don't see any difference. Still had the annoying priority notifications and heads up notifications. Glad to see someone else is still squeezing life outta their note 3.

Is there a root out for this firmware yet?

There are a lot of users out there otherwise this update wouldn't have happened. They need to have a certain amount of users to justify updating. I'm glad as this phone is still a beast, and going strong.

Root works like any other recent version. Just look in the threads for the method you want. If it worked at least for four versions ago, it should still work now.

Ok I tried kingroot it said that it wasn't adaptable yet. So does that mean I should wait a while for a new root to come out or just try another way?

I think that's the only one I never used. Follow this thread for rooting. I've used this for all my Note 3 roots. You just need to do the rooting steps.

You don't need to use kingroot. Just flash TWRP via download mode and flash SuperSU.

This is really great! What security update does it have? It would be really great to have a deodexed version. I tried on the previous
version, but failed. Does anyone have good pointers on deodexing?

How to get back to oreo?

Hello! I'd like to know how I can go back to Oreo, I have pie on the August patch. I have problems with battery drain and with the front camera (over exposes photos) are not taken the same as you see in the preview.
I can't go back with Odin, I get a problem with the bit

As everyone should, although I tried and it worked. I had plenty of issues with Pie back then, the worst being huge battery drain issues, as well as bigger charging times, so I decided to rollback to Oreo using sammobiles updated oreo version and Odin in order to flash it. Had no problems ever since and everything works fine. Backup your data before you do it though, if you do it. Also, using Frija's downloader is a better idea, since it's faster.

wow! thats cool that you were able to get it done. Weird, but cool. Waas it the same bootloader version? if so, that would explain it, but just odd that an oreo and pie version would cohabitate on the same bootloader.
Also Frija and SamFirm are GODSENDS when it comes to firmware downloading. They are at least 4x faster than sammobile

I honestly don't remember the details about the bootloader :/ but it was pretty straightforward. And yes, Frija would definitely saved me a couple of hours downloading the files.. if it existed!
