kinda dumb question i guess - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What will happen if I flash LG G4's kdz to a g4c device? Sorry, I'm new to this... please tell me if it's possible or not, and if not - why not. I'd be grateful if I get any 6.0 OS for G4c as well.

Don't worry, some say there is no such thing as dumb questions! x)
You found just the right place to get help and gain knowledge about your phone, so feel free to ask anything anytime! =)
To (somewhat) answer your question, in general it is not a good idea trying to put anything somewhere, where it doesn't belong.
There are some exceptions ofc (ie. V10 camera software ported to G4) but as a rule of thumb you should really just stick to the things that are known to be compatible with your phone/hardware.
Else, you might end up with an expensive paperweight ("bricked", in the worst case destroyed beyond repair).
There are different G4 software versions for all the different G4 models, H811, H818P, H815, . . . which are even more or less completely incompatible with each other. You get the idea!
So you probably wouldn't even be able to flash any of those G4 KDZs on a G4c (H255n) device "out of the box" . . .
[edit] but,
I did a quick Google Search and it seems like there is official 6.0 for G4c?!
Here, found a bunch of Marshmallow 6.0 KDZs for G4c http://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h525n-firmwares/
Good luck, have fun and welcome to XDA!

thank you, just got 6.0 on my G4c

Hi! I will upgrade my G4C from 5.0.2 to 6.0 but all the time in LGUP doesn't matter or refurbish or upgrade it's always stopping on 9% after 'retry open dload port'
Any solution?

updating lollipop help

Greetings. My name is Pedro, i am peruvian and have recently bought an lg v500 (non google play) wich i rooted to use some programs, like battery repair.
Now what i want to know is about upgrading to lollipop, since it seems that lg will NEVER update the plataform. Of course if i do so, i will need to know exactly what to do, specially since this is my only access to the internet.
Can you help me? I dunno much about flashing but i just wanna learn.

Do NOT use that method/tutorial if you want to keep root; you will loose root when you flash the KDZ.
Instead, install a custom recovery ( read into what that is first) and then flash the rooted flashable zip of v30a.

LG G3 D855 - need help

Hello, I need help. Not with a issue but with testing. I've build a new ROM called SpaceROM it is not ready for comercial use yet so I need a few people who wants to test it. If you are intrested to test this ROM please send me a private message or awnser to this thread. ONLY D855
Hello , although a new romchef is great for g3 community the thread name is a bit misleading. Could you rename it to something like (ROM TEST)Your thread name(ROM TEST), would be much better IMHO
thx, keep up the work

I need to install a different firmware to my LG G4 VS986

Well, what i need really is: install the LG G4 H815 firmware to my LG G4 VS986...
Is there some way to do it?
I want to do it because i need to install the fix that LG gives to solve the BootLoop problem but there is no fix file to te VS986 version...
If someone knows what can i do for fix my VS986 tell me please, i'll be in love with any help!
Contact LG USA and tell them you want it fixed. Doesn't matter if it's out of warranty - they will still do it. Call them for directions on how.

I was thinking in call but am not sure...
But, i'll do it man!
I'm still interesting to know if there es some way to do what i want, if there is some method to instal the H815 firmware to my VS986, i can fix it.
Thanks man!
Please hit the thumbs-up up thanks button to thank helpful posters.
I've never seen anyone install non-VS986 firmware - doubt that can fix your hardware problem which will continue to get worse. Sooner you contact LG, sooner you have a fixed phone .

I've tried to contact them bro!
The only thing i need to fix it (i guess) is to install a fixable rom, which can be (H815, H818, H812, H819)
There is no fix available for the VS986 version so far, but they're tot files that can solve the BootLoop issue for those versions that i told before.
And i'm sorry if i get wrong writing something jeje, i learned English from a book, is hard to try to explain when you know just the basic
For the bootloop issue you have not much choices on locked devices that's correct. The choices you have are all listed in my bootloop fix it list (see my signature)
Yes there is a way to convert your device but it's risky and may not be reversible. If you want to do go to the unofficial unlock g4 thread (see my signature) and check the support topic to go into IRC.

Man i just wanna fix my phone i don't care what i have to do, jaja
I don't really care if i can't go back to my device version, if i can fix the problem, hehe
As you know, there isn't a fix for the VS986 version, but there are for a couple of versions, such as H815, H812, H818 and others.
So, i guess that if i install a stock version of one of those devises on mine, i can install a fix too, right?

After converting you could install a temporary fix yes. But keep in mind that those are not fixing the problem just given more life (this can be hours or months).
Converting cannot guarantee a working cell service though so there is a risk with this.

You tried to contact them and what happened? They have a toll free number on the website .......... you can call and speak to someone ....... that's what I did and it worked - they fixed it under warranty even though the phone was out of warranty.

They did not respond, but I think I'll try again to see if I'm lucky.
