What Model is this? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Not often that i need to post a new thread but I am very confused and can't find an answer by searching.
My LG G4 says it is the model LG-815P but don't know which that is and where I should be looking for stuff. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

815 are "international" version. Yours specifically I could not say. This is the spec sheet from PDADB for that model, but according to that it has a link to Telcel. Telcel is Mexico..

Thank you for the info, it's weird to think that it's Mexico as I am in South Africa. Will have to see once we have root etc what I will need to do and use but thanks for the info. Been weird as my G2 was the D802 international variant. But now I can't find much about the 815P model.

LG-815P is for LATAM, South Africa versions, check it out here: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g4-6901.php
What parts are you looking for 815P, at most of times, parts of different variants in the same model are interchangeable, except for frame, housing and loudspeaker assembly.

Hi xymay,
I've also got a H815P (also from South Africa).
Do you know - Is it OK to use any H815 Rom on this phone?

I have the version for Mexico and no, you need a ROM for H815P.
The root system can be flashed over any 815 version.

Thank-you Pakitos.
I just want to ask to be sure that I understand you.
Are you saying 2 things.
One is that I must find a ROM for H815P.
The other is that I can use any H815's system inage on my phone.
Thanks,
Hotfingers

Yes there are 2 different things.
1) For the H815P you MUST flash a H815P ROM in order to not brick it. If you flash a H815N, H815TR, etc... your phone will be in an infinite boot loop best case scenario. Not really sure what happens if you flash a different ROM. It may not even boot.
2) When you root, you need to flash a system image that has root injected. Basically a hacked official ROM with the root installed on it. This system image works for every H815 version, so you dont have to worry about which variant you are on as long as it says H815 and matches your current ROM version.
Hope I made myself clear. If not, feel free to ask :fingers-crossed:

I thought 815p was pacific or puerto rico

[Q] How To Flash The Australian Firmware?

Hey guys,
I am wondering if anyone knows how to get a hold of the Australian firmware and flash the 32GB/3GB AU Firmware onto my phone? I imported one from Taiwan but it's currently running the Taiwan firmware. Not sure if there's any difference between the two but I'd feel better if my phone was running an actual Australian firmware that I can update properly, rather than an international firmware that I've had to make look like it's Australian, I'm even a few versions behind for some reason, and sometimes when I reboot it's back to Taiwanese...
My carrier is Telstra AU, I've got the 32GB/3GB Gold version. Not looking to root, running everything stock except the launcher (Using Nova Launcher) and all seems fine. I've installed LG PC Suite, I'm really just looking to backup my current firmware/kdz and flash a new Australian one.
Thanks in advance guys, looking forward to being a part of this epic community!
Hey mate! What's your model number? Is it the D855? It's funny, I imported mine simply because I didn't want the Ausy version of the phone. The only changes from the D855 and the Ausy version (model number which is D855K) is a few reception changes, and I'm not sure if they are hardware or software. I did a quick google, and I found this link, but I'm not sure how trustworthy it is, I'd be wary and scan anything with virus protection before. But here ya go. http://poweredw.gaodi.net/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=667560
There isn't much for us Ausys out there, which is why if you want to have a bit of support from XDA and other places, best stick with the inernational version.
Have a good one mate.

Hey mate,
Yeah, it's the D855, imported from Taiwan. The link you sent me to is a 16GB/2GB ROM, those of which are apparently everywhere, but I can't for the life of me find a 32GB/3GB ROM for us Aussies. I did import the D855 because it's the international one, which should be modded and tinkered with by more people because it's international, rather than just the D855k which only works for us Aussies.
But yeah, if you find a 32GB/3GB ROM for Telstra somewhere, would be MUCH appreciated, sick of my phone going back to Taiwanese every reboot
Thanks man!

LG didnt release the 32GB version in Australia, so you will never find a Telstra firmware for it... or Optus or Voda for that matter.
It shouldnt make any difference anyway as long as it has the same LTE bands, which I think it does.
Try an EU firmware that defaults to English maybe?

i cant honestly tell whether they are 16GB or 32GB, since some of them dont specify. As far as I am aware, if you update to an old UK or EU version (like 10A) you will get an OTA update to 10E pretty soon afterwards.
if you arent sure which one to flash, theres probably someone that is worried about the same thing in the comments of the thread somewhere that had their question answered. i havent read through the whole thing yet so sorry cant help you there.
good luck!

well its a personal web hosting... hosting sites always change for whatever reason. i would get it now while its there, cos who knows whether it will be there tomorrow. dont know whether the owner will keep it up to date regularly, but you can always read the forums to see when new updates come out.
the unbranded EU firmware is a popular one and will probably be one of the most frequently updated, so once you are on that you can probably get the OTAs as they come out too.

I should of been more clean in my Question.
The EU Lg bootloader Unlock that is available. would it work on the 815K compared to just a 815 or 815EU.
As far as i can gather from the state of these threads the phones are the same. (besided bands you mentioned) when it comes to unlocking the bootloader.
~Thanks in Advance.
Unlock only works for 815EU models currently.. No other models are supported/unlocked...

i need answer to this one too, kindly those know spare a minute and tell us, i have a feeling by few comments, we can, but want to be sure by some expert people out here.
also because my h815t only has 10c update, we are missing out of other more recent updates.
so, the question is: can you flash, maybe H815 kdz to your H815T? yes, you probably can, but due to some regional differences, i bet the signal reception or mobile network would have bugs. or, your phone might just go bootloop. CMIIW.
you might face the wifi /antenna error when you flash incorrect region! Been through this with htc sensation..

Has there been any updates progress on rooting other G7 Models?

I have an G7+ model LMG7EAW, the european international model. Does anyone know if progress on my model and other G7's is being made? I know the developer RunningNak3d(he's a user on XDA) is attempting to develop one from what i've read of his posts, but he posts within the other LG phone subforums and just mentions the G7 offhand. It's kind of hard to follow because he posts info in disparate threads, there is no centralized G7 thread he is posting in. He is only one working on it afaik. Hoping someone knows the current state of development on root for other G7 models besides the EM.

Until the price comes down so I can pick one up on eBay, I am not working on it right now.
I will be working on the V40 before the G7 now that there is a model that has an unlockable bootloader. However, that work should apply to the G7.

The g7 has an unlockable bootloader model, the lm-g710em can be bootloader unlocked and rooted. If you could obtain one of those phones, would it be possible to find a way to unlock the bootloaders of all other G7 models through some sort of exploit? LG has a terrible track record for unlocking bootloaders and getting their phones rooted from what i've read, so i'm curious if the 710em would be a starting point for you to get all the G7 models unlockable and rootable. There are few threads on the G7 development subforum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/development
I can try to find a good deal on that model for you, do you have a budget range?
Also, i'm grateful for all you've done and your work. Thank you.

Why don't you wait for pie first? Once pie is out you will not be able to install it without losing root.
