LG G4 H815 American Ver?

Hi i bought a lg g4 used, and the software says euro. sw orginal version is: lgh815at-00-vx10b-global-com-may-01-2015 and sw ver info is: h815x10-eur-xx, when i tried unlocking the bootloader it said it is an american device. I thought american lg g4 were h810/811/etc. Im a bit confused so if someone can guide me, I would really appreciate it. I am trying to unlock the bootloader and root my phone. Since lg wont let me unlock bootloader, i just want to root it and which model rootedimage do i use?

Lg made a carrier free GSM H815 version for the US. Sounds like the seller flash a euro version KDZ over the US hardware to make it appear as a euro version. However, since it is not a true Euro version, it can't be bootloader unlocked.
Use the H815EU root method.

This is the LG G4 Trial USA version they gave free to USA before its selling in store. They gave me one and I rooted it. Now its on V10e-EUR-XX.

Yeah. Unless you have a preference for CM/AOSP, I would root it and install Xposed with the G4 Tweaksbox and go with that. Pretty much the same as the current ROMs that are out there now.

How were you able to install genisys rom on H815 USA variant? I thought you couldn't flash these versions?

Taiwan H815 model bootloader unlock help

Hey guys,i recently got the LG G4 coming from a G3
Trying to unlock the bootloader of this phone i saw that the Taiwan model that i have isnt supported
I am thinking of what i can do to unlock my device
I thought a possibility would be to flash the european image on my phone in download mode ?
Or enter a different IMEI to my device when LG Website asks me to enter it
If you guys have any luck with the other international versions of LG G4 please let me know
Thank you very much

Lg has stated that thats the only model that will support unlock. Nothing wrong with hope but dont hold your breath.

I know a developer in korea they say all Internationals models of G4 will have bootloader unlocked although he doesnt recommend it but it will be available.. He may not be sure of other carrier varients currently lg is working on it and its status will be available on their site when finished

Its one of those ill believe it when i see it. Now i know. There have been plenty of phones and tablets get unlocked officially and unofficialy 1.2.even 3 years later. I just know the encryption that the bls have on them and its bassicly unhackable. Thats why i say exploits. Unless someone finds the trusted key that lg uses. Which from what ive read. Is generated randomly from each iemi and android id. But i for one hope it happens and if ita any consolation that does revive my hope in g4 development. Lol i got a lg k7 unlocked and u can oem unlock then fastboot oem unlock. But theres absolutly no development for this device yet. Im bakin up a rom for it now

US Variant H815 rooting question

Before anyone asks, yes I've searched, but have not been able to find any solid answers. So here I am. I just bought an LG G4 from ebay, I was listed as a T-Mobile model but when it arrived, I discovered it was a US model H815. It's running vx10b-eur-xx. These apparently have locked bootloaders. My question is, is there any method I can use to root this device and run a ROM like CM14, or am I stuck with what it's got? Like I said, all my searches never really come up with a for-sure answer. (hopefully this is in the right spot)

i think theres no american h815 i would returned for misinformation.
no cm only root if you are on lollipop.
unless its one of the europeans models that can be unlocked. serach for LG G4 than can be bootloader unlocked and chek if yours is one.

Apparently there is a US Variant H815, when I attempted the unlock the bootloader the LG developer website stated that the device could not be unlocked because it was a US model. Not the exact quote, but close enough. Thanks for the reply though.

Will the G4 in canada get nougat?

So I did some searching online and found that LG decided to update some of the eastern models to 7.0. My question is weather the models in North America will get nougat by OTA or if I can load it manually without root. I just got a brand new H812 model and I'm sick of the OS. Will flashing the official nougat for those models work on my phone?

It's looking increasingly likely that the H812 will not get 7.0 (you can check out the *****-fest on https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/official-nougat-g4-v10-q2-2017-t3567402 to get a better idea).
I do not recommend flashing any other models of official Nougat - with the H812 locked bootloader and the model differences you will most likely hard-brick your device - I am not aware of any H812's that have successfully done this but will stand corrected if someone has managed.
Now with that said, do not abandon all hope. Senior member steadfasterX has been working steadfastly on overcoming all these issues and has recently had a breakthrough development (refer to post #252 in his thread [Bootloader UNLOCK][LS991|H81x|VS986|F500] Unofficial unlock -> PoC).
So hold on and wait for further developments and check his thread there regularly ... he had previously unlocked successfully an H812 but with some limitation but this new development may lead to all limitations and risks being overcome shortly.

Thank you very much

Exiting stuff!

No point in waiting any longer, lol - it is doubtful that the LG G4 will last much more than this year before they all are toast - either by battery or by the phone itself.

Nobody has had to wait. As of March 8 '18 were able to unofficially unlock our locked LG G4 H812 bootloaders, thanks to @steadfasterX 's brilliant & persistent work: [UNLOCK][UNOFFICIAL][G4] Unlock **ANY** LG G4 device with UsU
Not only have we been able to install a ported official Nougat stock rom but many of us have been using custom Nougat and Oreo roms. Batteries can be replaced and later LG G4 models have not suffered the ILAPO issues that plagued earlier versions.

Custom Rom for LG G4 H812
Can someone tell me where I can find a custom rom for the LG G4 H812? In particular where I can find the ROM for Nougat. I'm curious if I can go from MM to Oreo and skip over Nougat? Can I also go straight to Pie from MM? And if I find any of these unstable or unsuable, can I downgrade after upgrading?

Most custom roms have their own thread in the following forum: G4 Android Development and some of the very best can be found in SteadfasterX's Download Server - steadfasterX is the author of the unofficial bootloader unlock process for the LG G4.
Note: If you have not unlocked your bootloader unofficially following the process in the linked thread in post #6 ([UNLOCK][UNOFFICIAL][G4] Unlock **ANY** LG G4 device with UsU), you will have to complete that whole process first before you can install a custom recovery and rom. Read everything very carefully and make you you understand it fully.

Help flashing Custom rom on LG G8 820UM AT&T

Recently got a LG G8 thinq at&t variant, we have the bootloader unlocked, but cant find any custom roms, and it seems at twrp doesn't support this model, so can't flash GAPPS, even if we did get a rom. Can anyone help? Thanks

can you tell me please how did you unlock the bootloader?

There are no custom roms yet. Someone has to make one. I'd take a crack at it if I wasn't retarded when it came to programming. Every time someone tries to help me I screw it up.
