[Q] Different carrier custom ROM - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I have been out of the scene for some time so here is my question.
I recently got a US Cellular LG 4 like new, I know I cannot root unless I downgrade, the question is, can I flash a ROM from a different carrier on this phone or the hardware is different?
I don't get it.
I don't intend to use this phone with US Cellular.
Thank you.

Bands are different for sure... Not sure if anything else in hardware wise but I wouldn't do that if I were you. Look that H811 were porting H815 ROM to have 'clean' G4 experience. There must be some kernel differences as well. Long story short don't do that if you have anything else than Tmo then wait for(possible) bootloader unlock

Is it possible to unlock the bootloader/flash another ROM on the LG G4 H812 variant?

Just as the title says.
I'm thinking of buying an LG G4, but in Canada they only have the H812 models.
I don't like LG's version of Android and would like to flash a ROM that is closer to stock.
Ita possible only for h815

Only until LG deems ok to release the unlock codes.....

G3 model differences in regards to Rom capatibility?

Hey guys, I've been looking for something to upgrade to from my old e970, and I've had nothing but great experiences with LG phones. I have a question regarding the different model's of this phone, and potential development limitations. I would be getting the D851 (Tmo variant) and wondering if there are compatibility issues among the roms? For example, in original development, official CM13 is listed for d855, does that mean there's no way I wouldn't be able to use it on a D851? I understand for my e970 if I use an international variant rom I'd lose camera and sd card support.
Thanks!
You can only use D851 roms in that instance. That is the reason why D851, D852, D855 etc. have separate forum categories for rom developments.
Flashing rom that is intended for other model than your phone causes it to brick or boot loop (I'm not sure what of those two since I've never done that)

Thanks! I found the seperate forum for the D851 and CM13 does have an official version. This should make building other roms much simpler. Thank you again!

Can i install International variants ROMs on Unlocked T Mobile ?

Hey guys , i recently purchased a LG G3 D851 T-Mobile Unlocked , Unlocked Means that in country like Pakistan , It Is Compatible with all 4G networks and works flawlessly , i was wondering if i can install D855's Custom roms on this phone ? Is it possible ?
@dukesx, No you cannot. Or shouldn't. Internally the two models are quite different. Don't risk screwing up your phone.
D851 has an unlocked bootloader. It is not network/carrier unlocked.

Android 7.0

HI i have to ask all DEVELOPERS..
WHEN ANDROID N you will "made" for US
Rumors say that we should get Nougat in December.
I know for sure that the V10, G5 and (of course) V20 will get it.
I hope our devices will get "N"
I think that we will !
LG 4 / LG v10 / LG G5 / LG v20 (will came with it on the first day...i think)
Of course we will get it... There are rumors that even G3 will get it

I don't know about AT&T, but usually unlocking the phone to use with other SIM cards has nothing to do with unlocking the bootloader and is a completely separate procedure...
