Mystery LG G4 H815? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have two G4 H815s. One is the SEA variant. I can update firmware, and use adb to reboot into bootloader. My other H815, however, is a "Global-Com"?? version, it's software is H81521z-GOBAL-COM. It will not boot into bootloader with adb (just reboots normally) and I can't find an update ROM (KDZ) for this phone. It currently has MM with 2015-11-01 security level. A 21z ROM?? I want to get the latest security level, and there appear to be no OTA updates available. Any advice? Thanks.

It may be some kind of developement phone or some broken/beta stuff. Your software looks to me like beta of G4 MM. Global com pretty much means h815 international version. You should try to recover the system with lg bridge.

Thanks, I may try to use LG Bridge. Will that also restore the adb bootloader capability? Also, am I right to assume LG will not provide the unlock.bin for this variant? Thanks again.

Optimus G Benelux KitKat Update Unavailable

Hello,
even though I purchased my phone in Germany I got a LG Benelux E975 version for which there are no updates for KitKat through the official
LG Software available.
Are there any methods to fix this or why won't the German version wouldn't work on my device and why does it is not launched yet.
The support had no new information for me.

Is it network locked or unlocked?
Also, you can flash the E975V20A on it if its E975 Good luck!

It is unlocked. Is there any risk of making the device unusable, how do I convert it to a V20A version?

Just flash the kdz update for E975
or
If your phone is Right up stock phone, follow tutorial to get Custom recovery (TWRP or clockworkmod) and plainly flash an upgrade zip file
Can you provide me the links to both threads?
Thank you

Manually updating to 5.1.1?

Hello,
I have an unlocked LG G3 bought from Amazon UK.
It is currently on Android 5.0 and I was waiting long for 5.1 or 5.1.1 but it seems it won't be updated soon automatically.
Can I manually update to 5.1 or 5.1.1? Does anybody know where should I download the official firmware?
I know the website for all Samsung firmware but not sure of the LG one.
Software version of my G3 is V20i-EUR-XX.
Thanks.
As soon as 5.1(5.1.1) or newer version is available(at all for the g3) you can download it either from your carrier or when the OPEN ones receive it. Currently the g3 doesn't have 5.1(5.1.1) or newer available at all.

Ah all right, I thought there is 5.1 for G3 but my specific version did not get it yet.
Thanks.
I dont think G3 will get 5.1.1 id say we will wait a very long time and they will go straight to 6.0 after the G4 gets its update.

LG G4 VS98611A Marshmallow Root Update

So I currently am running Android 5.1 with Root. What do I need to do to upgrade to 6.0? Is there any special step? Do I have to unroot and re-root? Let me know.
First, Marshmallow has not yet been released for the Verizon G4 (VS986). So you cannot upgrade to MM at this time and will have to wait for Verizon to release the update. Nobody knows when that will be, but as of yesterday, all 3 other major carriers have released MM for their G4s.
Second, you will not be able to root Marshmallow on the VS986 since that particular model has a locked bootloader. With Marshmallow, Google added some new flags to the boot.img (kernel and ramdisk) to prevent root that have to be flipped in order to allow root, otherwise you just bootloop. But without an unlocked bootloader, you will not be able to flash a custom boot.img. Without an unlocked bootloader, there is little hope at this time for root on the stock LG Marshmallow ROM. If you want to keep root, you need to stay on 5.1.
Still not getting update

Does it still not release for LG G4 Verizon devices.

Yeah i ve tried that as well and no luck, i tried the kdz flashing method using lg up and it worked i was able to upgrade to MM. Now need to find a way to root it and see if i can could get my hands on a nougat custom rom but i think its impossible since my device/model is not listed there only the k430dsy models are. ☺
need some more info
