Yesterday my LG G4 bootlooped, I fixed it with LGUP by upgarding the .tot file.
Now my LG runs only on 1 core, even though in the .tot it's set it should run on 4.
Is there any other way to enable them or to make the remaining 3 work? The phone is very slow.
I read that can be done via app, but it requires root. I checked and see there is no way to root H818P on android 6.0? Or am I wrong?
Read that there is some way to unlock the bootloader, and flash CUstom Recovery with SuperSU to root, is that possible for this model?
Really, I just need anything that could make me enable the 4 cores, leaving the big ones off. Has anyone made that working on H818P ?
I would appreciate any help, my local LG support said "they never heard of any bootloops".:good:
No unlock for H818 till the moment. Hopefully it will be achieved by @steadfasterX in a not so distant future :fingers-crossed:
Just go to an LG Authorized Service Center and ask for they to raplace your motherboard. LG reconigsed the problem and changes the faulty mb with a new one even after the warranty period is over.
Also, dont forget the thanks button in the post if I helped, thanking is a thing in xda :good:

Hmmm ....
My knowledge is the G4 has 6 Cores? My H815 has 6 Cores...
Anyway, do a Refurbish in LGUP to MM 6.0 with H81520p_00_0314.kdz...normaly this kdz should work on H818P too, but not 100% sure.

The case is, those cursed with ILAPO need to disable 2 big cores to make the phone work. Otherwise phone loops on startup, or if you put it in a freezer for an hour, starts and functions for 5 minutes.
But anyway I downgraded to Lollipop, rooted and enabled remaining cores with Kernel adiutor. Phone works well. Anybody facing the same problem with H818P - this is the quickest way to save your phone if your phone is already hit with ILAPO and you don't qualify for warranty.

You ever try a Welding iron to heat up the cpu ? I did it on 4 Phones successful, G3, two G4 and a V10 and they still running. I know the Patch for Lollipop 5.0 / 5.1 it dissable the A53 with two cores. Its all a big Experience, good luck

After I disabled two cores, rooted phone and worked oly on 4 cores, I managed to have the phone working for 7 months.
Suddenly it hit again and even turning big cores off didn't work.
After baking the motherboard it works 2 days but then it hits again.
No cure found and guess it's too late for warranty. Needed to buy a new phone.

I don't know if this was already posted, I hope not. So, a dude on reddit has managed to download some files from the LG site and this one seems that it's about the recovery of data on a bootlooping phone. Here's the post:
Every once in a while I used to peruse LG's service bulletin site (whose URL I cannot recall, dammit) just to perv about on all the fun info, and apparently back in November I downloaded a file titled G4.ZIP, which seems to be pertinent to recovering data from bootlooping phones, or as they refer to it in the guide, the "Infinite loop Auto power off"(ILAPO) issue:
From the Powerpoint file:
Sometimes G4 series phone happens “Infinite loop Auto power off” issue.
if phone’s symptom is “Infinite loop Auto power off”, you should Change a Main board.
if customer wants to Data Back-up, you should use this Recovery tool.
Please Data Back-up proceed after Recovery complete.
This Phone (Recovery was completed) is abnormal Main Board.
Please don't reuse the Main Board.
Inside the package is TOT files for several international G4 models, each TOT containing aboot images. In the opening notes it specifies it's for 'Global /All (Except USA, Canada, Puertorico)'. Also inside is install packages for LGUP and G4 flash dlls.
So are they saying that disabling the BIG cores will allow the phone to boot? Or that by disabling the BIG cores it allows data recovery from another avenue? Why should disabling the BIG cores matter, is that where the manufacturing defect lives? Could BIG core sacrifice enable a G4 with the ILAPO issue to continue to function without mainboard replacement?
Just found this fascinating and thought I'd share.

Here's the file: G4.zip, and here's the original post, courtesy of /u/cutol
So, if anyone could look into it, that would be great. I'm pretty sure there are people who would love to get their data off the phone.
It works :good:
I saw this as well on Reddit. I too was waiting for someone to report.
Now the question is can we continue to use the phone with the BIG cores disabled?
I would imagine it to be a tad slower but nothing major for regular day to day usage
Is there a fix like this for the US VS986?
Thanks!

I keep using it with core disabled for 2 weeks.
It's pretty slow but if you don't run too much apps it's ok.
Will this work if the LG G4 has 6.0 instead of 5.1
Has anyone gotten this to work with a US variant? I don't care if any of the radios work; I just want to boot it long enough to get some backups and write them to the SD card. (I'm luckily getting a warranty replacement from Sprint).
LGH818N 6.0 not supporting this method. Need bin file for M
Sent from my LG-H818 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Do you have a fix for F500S F500K F500L?
Where do I find the right tot please? I've got H815 20a. I tried to LGUP tot from OP but it says I need to get tot for M. Help please.

You may have gotten yourself into the famous bootloop issue on ur device which is G4 famous for.. Its a hardware issue caused by seperation between the joints in the motherboard..if ur in warranty take it to LG if not prepared to spend atleast 200$ to fix it...there is a method also by disabling cores in which u have to be already in lollipop n flash certain firmware...so check these forums on how to disable the cores..also have u tried the cse flash in lg flashtool meaning complete stock try doing that too

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 %

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

U can root lollipop version which also has good battery life actually come to think of it u might need it desperately why ? By using apps like greenify and amplify u can save major btry time and a humagus standby time...just go through this thread follow the instructions on page 8 on how to downgrade to lollipop and root...dont be disappointed n make sure ur model of g4 is H815 if other dont flash it wil brick
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/815-taiwan-v10f-t3298685/page8
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:

Second the sim is not working.
I tryed many time to roll back or flash a new firmware but it didnt work.
I also find out when the phone is in download mode that is says LG-H818 but mine is fore sure a H815.
Is it some way to fix it?

Does anyone know if there is a way to put the H815 firmware back? right know it believes to be a h818 so it doesnt allow me to flash it. WIth the h818 doesnt even turn on right now
Is ur phone recently repaired by lg or did u bought it used ? Cuz there is no way lg bridge can make mistake on ur g4s varaint...either someone u bought off tried to change the buid prop file to make u believe its h815 or ur phone is refurbished/repaired using components n sensors of other model
I bought it from a guy and the phone was totally new ( it had all the protection film on it and even the box was sealed).
I'm starting to think it was regenerated but i dont understand how could it be the dual sim one.
Do you have any suggestion how to fix it? right now i can just uplad h818 firmware from lgup but of course they are not working

Right now its already rebooting aftern turning on, so i can not se how could damage it more. Any suggestion for possible solution?

my phone boots up completely but no baseband no imei or anything and that infamous 9008 brick is fixable with ls991 laf.img and 8992.mbn and etc... files and here is my next approaches please if you have enough aknowledge guide me with these options i have or add any if something came on your mind:
1.Flashing a ls991 model kdz and see what comes out(probably not doable,lgup may not let me flash it)
2.while surfing through the forums and threads i found the exact H811 10N Laf.img and i will replace it with ls991's and will use QFIL to correct the partitions and then my phone would be fixed(im too scared for this one...maybe my phone is a refurbished F500...who knows? :fingers-crossed: )
3.Maybe finding and flashing F500 laf.img fix the phone but a HUGE problem i am facing:where to find that file?
Note:All i am trying to do is to fix this phone by software approaches and disassembling the phone is out of my options for now(only will do if none of above fix it properly)
So with all of that what would you do if you be in my shoes?:cyclops:
Always hated LG and admired Sony but i started to hate xperia x series because of weak development so i bought this one for around 100$ in your currency.:laugh:

if i could find the tot would for g5.
now if u break 9008 jtag i think is the only fix i dont know the pin outs or if the g4 even supports that like the g3 and 2. thats why i say take device apart its fricken easy there should be a sticker on the mother board or stamps that say the mbs model and go from there

Actually LG devices are very easy to disassemble so people like them wont put so much effort to refurbish LG phones and earn themselves some easy money.
And believe me Iran is the heaven of refurbished and chinese phones
Mostly because many cant afford to buy their phones and other stuff from trusted sellers and they buy them with no warranty(or guarranty)from third party sellers.
Actually they have a place for themselves in downtown(Aladdin building).
But i wanted a flagship LG device to learn more about it and i got it for a couple of bucks so it really didnt matter if my G4 didnt work as expected.
But its always a pleasure to make some mystery and try to crack the case by yourself :laugh:

of course they are great but hardware faults are pretty big deal but for me sony z series were better right until z3+ .for now im happy with my htc u11 and im not going to unlock it or anything.
maybe i use g4 as my secondary device instead of xperia z2.
its a shame that sony is not in its golden age (2011-2013) anymore...
will make a thread to help people like me to unbrick their refurbished device
Thanks for everything
