Can I Replace the internal memory of lg g3? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody,
Since 3 days my LG G3 D855 smartphone is not working properly. Everytime it restarts automatically when a write operation is doing in the internal memory such as receiving WhatsApp messages, making/receiving calls, etc. I first thought that it was the CandySix ROM which was bugging, so I downloaded a new ROM (FulmicsROM-5.1) and in the last step when I confirm the installation of that new ROM through the recovery mode TWRP, the phone restarts because the ROM is going to be extracted in the internal memory. I knew at that moment that the problem is the internal memory of my phone.
Please is it possible to change the internal memory of an LG G3 D855 phone?
Thanks in advance.

It is possible, but only in service whit special equipment for soldering BGA chips! After that you will need to put phone in download mode, probably or make a so-called J-TAG which will allow you to make initial formatting of memory!
And almost forgot, if you didn't do that before, than make a backup of EFS partition or phone will be lost for ever!

Micro SD Card says corrupted after installing Android Marshmallow in my LG G3 D858HK

Hi people. I had installed this ROM (Marshmallow 6.0) in my LG G3 D858HK dual sim. The link to the ROM is http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/lg-g3-d856-7-8-android-marshmallow-t3294053
But after installing the same my MicroSD card says its corrupted and asks to format it. I have formatted it several times and also by PC with a card reader. But still the issue persists. I don't get the option to set up my card as either INTERNAL or PORTABLE storage as it should be in Marshmallow ROMS. It directly starts to format as Portable storage and starts at 20% and shows successfully formatted. But still it shows that the card is corrupted. My card is working fine. I checked it. Please help.
I have the same problem and not yet identified the reason for this. Have you tried other ROMs? For me it is also happening on CM 13 and CandySix.
Answer.
Hope that helps, it worked for me with the same problem and works always....

I have the same issue with a Samsung 64GB microSD in a LG G3 d851 (T-Mobile USA). The card works fine in Windows and Android Lollipop. However I am testing several Marshmallow ROMs and so far I got this corrupted message in LightDark, Turbo and DU ROMs. However it works fine in Tesla-M. All of them are AOSP Android M ROMs. It seems that there is a problem somewhere but at least Tesla-M tells us that it can be fixed.
Fat32 lads, instead of exFAT format to fat32. The root in MM causes exFAT cards not to be read and stupidly the phone formats it to exFAT. Also the SIM contacts won't appear, instead you have to download an app to copy them from sim to phone.
I'm experiencing something similar.
I am on fulmics 4.2 on a d855. I had no problems for some weeks, than the phone started mounting and unmounting my sdcard, I tried all the suggestions I read online. Like slow formatting (tried all the types of partition), also I tried with the phone format. My best result was the read of the sdcard for just some hours, but then it started auto-expelling it.
I obviously tried with more sdcards and it's not a problem with them. Any suggestions? It's a software problem or an internal hardware problem?
I tried change the kernel a xceed and the sd card is recognized but not funcionally complete,(the radio fm do not work with xceed)

Hi all,
I found out that the same SD card I have since I bought the S5, May 2014, just got corrupted.
It won’t format in the phone, I use the AParted, ES File Explorer, FX Explorer and it never work.
I can still use it in a camera, PC, another Phone and it worked fine!
I put the card back in my PC, reformat in Fat32, ext4, NTFS and each time never worked in the S5.
I did the same thing with a bran new one too, same results.
It starts after updating SuperSU 2.61 to 2.71, in Marshmallow.
Few days’ work fine and then, corrupted.
I tried many options people have here and still the same result, corrupted.
I fix it (I hope) with doing a full factory reset in Marshmallow first.
Got to TWRP and did a full Wipe, Format Data and Adv. Wipe; select everything.
Yes, that clean a lot.
Use Odin and re-flash Marshmallow.
Everything is fine now, but it is only a few days that I did this, so it might still happen.
Could it be the version of SUperSU I took that has something? Or It is actually Marshmallow 6.0.1 with SuperSU ?
We might never know as the version change often.
Hope that will help someone.

Hi all,
Here it is again, my SD card is corrupted again by the OS… but I can access the card by my PC or another phone!
So it seams to be a combination of OS 6.0.1 (Canadian Rogers), how it is rooted (Twrp) and the SuperSU free v2.76.
I’ll wipe the phone again and re-install the original Os from the carrier, no Root & no SuperSU.
I’ll wait for a week and see.
Keep you posted.
Have a great one!

Try this...
Hi All,
I rooted by phone this week also using the KingRoot method and also had the same issue. The below steps resolved it for myself and hopefully for you.
Since this is my first post I can't paste the URL to the site as the forum won't let me, so you'll have to google it, sorry about that.
Google - 32fat guiformat and look for the site 'GUI Format - Ridgecrop Consultants Ltd'
Download the program by clicking on the picture.
Run the program and select the drive letter of your memory card. Set the Allocation unit size to 32768 and untick Quick Format the press Start.
The format process takes maybe 45mins. But afterwards you'll have a full 64GB card formatted as FAT32 and will work in your phone again. Hope this helps you...
Enjoy your day.

If you can verify that more than one card works in a computer but not on the phone, and that formatting the card in the phone goes to 20 % very quickly, while afterwards going to 100 % but still tells you it´s corrupted, then indeed it´s simply the installation of Marshmellow that suddenly no longer wants to work with the file system of the card.
For me, the 32fat guiformat program told me that card was locked by another application, so I did it manually:
In windows elevated command prompt - after backing up eventual data on the card:
diskpart
list disk
(now find out which one is your sdcard, let´s call it x)
select disk x
clean
create partition primary
select partition 1
format fs=fat32
When the format is finished, if the cards size is beyond 32 GB, you´ll get a message about that the disk is too big.
At this point I managed though to make a quick format in the before mentioned FAT32 GUI Format program, and bingo - the card is recognized in the phone again.
No need for the diskpart stuff of course, if you already had success with the GUI thingy, just telling in case anyone experiences the same problems as me.
It may be that there´s a way to tell diskpart to use a different cluster size to avoid the error at the end, and also there may be a trick to make the card available to fat32gui. without first going through the diskpart step In my case though, I had the error on two different computers, on which none of them were accessing the card from any applications, disk management, win explorer etc.
Finally I´d like to add that this is not a general error for all Marshmallow phones: My huawei p8 worked fine with the card, also on Marshmallow, before I had to reformat it to fat32.
It´s a pretty sucky bug: Never mind the hassle of formatting the card, as long it works. What bothers me is the 4 GB limit of files in fat32. It´s easy to have a movie nowadays which is larger than that.
PS: Some people recommend using an app called aparted to format the card on the phone, which now has another name. I tried that, but it kept on closing itself, so perhaps it´s not compatible with Marshmallow or the same plus LG G3.

same problem i tried everything aparted, wiping partition from twrp, cmd promt.
maybe busybox
I know this is an old thread but I've recently had this same situation but I found it was a result of installing busybox with Busybox Pro from Stericson. I used the "Smart Install" feature and selected to "Replace all symlinks" and "Clean Mode".
Basically, I believe by doing clean mode and replacing all symlinks, I had replaced needed System applets which somehow had hindered the OS from being able to correctly mount any External SD Card.
After using TWRP to factory reset (Wipe System, Data, Dalvik, Cache, Internal Storage) I Odin Flashed the latest stock firmware and then proceeded to root, etc. BTW, My phone is a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910T on Net10 prepaid network.
Worked for me!!

Did you ever find out a resolution to this? I'm having the same problem -- card works in computer and other devices, but not tablet which was rooted (twrp) with supersu installed. In fact, no sdcard will work now in that tablet, formatted using gui formatter mentioned earlier or not.

[LG G3 f400L] My Ext SDCard data get corrupted again n again.

Hi guys, i'm using LG G3 F400L from past few days. The device currently running stock KitKat. I already use stock marshmallow on this device but there's a same problem. Before this device i have LG G Pro. The problem is that when i move any data onto ext sdcard, all the data get corrupted. In gallery, all the media is greyed out with yellow exclamation icon. I'm using HP Class 10 Ultra 32GB micro sdcard. I already use it with my previous LG G Pro without a single issue. But on LG G3, i'm really in trouble. I format the card in Fat32 many times but problem not solved. But as soon as the device restarted, data get corrupted. I also done a factory data reset. My card is not fake. It's an original card. Card works fine everywhere except on my G3. It's a well known issue on many high end devices. I need solution. Can anyone have a solution to this issue?

Help with Custom Rom for LG G4 Beat (H735)

Hi Everybody,
My LG G4 BEAT is now a little bit slow.... i have already did what i can do on the current Rom (cleaning, removing apps, clearing cache) - and nothing seems to improve to situation.
i have on it 32 GB micro SDcard, and i save on it everything that can be saved instead on the memory phone, but it is not enough, i have always the same message "not enough space...." when i try to download new Apps or when i'm trying to make Updates.
i figured maybe i'll install a new Rom, and the most important thing is that it will make the phone work faster.
can you recommend me on suitable ROM ? is the first time that i try to do that, so i need some good explanations.
thanks! =)
no bootloader unlock = no recovery = no custom rom
In my experience, custom roms are nearly always faster than stock. And they don't slow down as much as the stock rom. Perosnally I like vanilla android roms with a few tweaks. I find they are the most stable and least prone to slowdown over time. I've used Cyanogenmod in the past and loved it, but there isn't a stable release for the G4. I recommend looking into AOSP-based roms in the Android Development section of this forum. Or you could just do a factory reset, which will make your phone faster. It will still slow down over time, however.
I don't think installing a custom rom will really help your problem with not having enough space. However, installing a rom clears your data partition (this means all apps and the saved data with those apps will be removed. Your personal data like pictures and music will be left untouched.) And that means you'll have plenty of free space!
Have you thought about mounting your SD card as an internal partition instead of a media SD card? This allows the system to use the sd card as if it were an internal sd card, meaning you can install apps to it and stuff. But you will only be able to use your SD card for that phone.

No it isn't, it's just hidden.
You can partition your SD Card through ADB.
On reddit (Enable adoptable storage on your LG G4 (stock, no root needed)) there is a nice tutorial for the LG G4, but it works exactly the same way for the G4s.
But read the comments, there you get usefull hints, like only use a part of the external SD as adoptable storage.
Since I use this I have more than enough space with my G4s and it's even faster, if your SD Card is fast enough.
If you need any further details don't hesitate to contact me.
if i install twrp no-troot h735 then flash magisk to phone it will be rooted?

Nope, as long as I saw....and it won't be

Lost all photos of my newborn and need root to use recovery apps

Hi all,
Any help would be appreciated.
I connected my LG D852 with MM to the LG software, I had a pop-up that there is an upgrade so clicked OK thinking that the data will not be wiped as long as I will be still on MM. That was wrong! ALL data are wiped including my newborn first photos which are priceless to me . I tried some apps like diskdigger and some software on the PC but all of them require root to perform. From my search, it seems like impossible to root this version of the LG . So, any help to restore these photos will be appreciated.
Additional Information:
- Photos were on the internal memory.
sd card or internal memory ?
if sd, try to restore on PC
if internal this may help https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...de-internal-memory-data-recovery-yes-t1994705
also stop using your phone (take the battery out). Files aren't actually deleted unless overwritten by another app. By using the phone you're keep writing to your memory.

Data are on the internal memory. I tried to follow the link you shared but the main issue is that the phone is required to be rooted which is not possible (to my knowledge) for the LG G3 D852.
