I have had my LG G4 VS986 for a little over a month and it started turning itself off and restarting last night, since then it has done this randomly thru out the day, I have even done a factory reset on it and it is still doing it...please any help will be appreciated, for I don't want to go to verizon with it and end up getting a refurbished one as a replacement for a brand new one.
maybe you can flash again android
I don't know what that is...
its when you put the same image (kdz ) android for remplace your android . but if you know nothing about this . is not necessary risky . but a bit complicated
It's seems to be a common thing unfortunately. It's happening to my week old G4 too :/
Check here, here, and here
If you still have your original box, would you mind checking what month your phone was made in (found on the outside of the box)? I have a feeling this is only happening to phones made around the time it was released. Mine was made in May of 2015

Mine was manufactured in May 2015 also!!! I took my phone back to Verizon and at first they didn't believe me until it started doing it there... they are sending a replacement for me but I'm a little worried because it's supposed to be a refurbished one...

man.. :/ but good news about you getting a replacement. I bought mine new, sealed in box from craigslist so i'm trying to figure out what to do :fingers-crossed:
Hi guys,
mine has started to do the same thing. International unlocked not rooted.
Outta nowhere has started to restart itself. BUT, only when display is on. When screen is off had no problems. Right in the moment when i unlock the screen it gets crazy hot and starts with the restarting.
Interesting thing is that i had z-cpu installed the night before and it showed that the cpu is clocked at 1,2 Ghz.
It got slow the last days of usage. After restarting itself till the battery died, i wouldn`t be able to charge it.
The next day i tried again to charge it and there it was, started to charge but with green lines on the display.
I guess that overheating has damaged the display or something.
I am waiting a answer from the repair centre.
The manifacturing date is August btw.

Hi everyone,
I am a new LG G4 owner, bought it on June 7th. I am not a developer or anything like that, more an average phone user. So, don't get frustrated if I don't quite understand real technical jargon....
Anyway, I love the phone look, and feel, but on the 14th day of ownership, my phone started freezing half the screen. the left side freezes up and the right half continues to be able to be used...It started out not happening every time I opened the screen, now it happens every time, and in some cases the whole screen looks like it is just smeared together.
Anyone else having this problem, and are there any fixes...? I use my phone for business, and Sprint's crappy customer service tells me that I have to wait a couple of days for a new one to be ordered....Thanks.
Sounds like the phone is bad. You need a new one.
Thanks Maverick, Yeah, we figured that one out yesterday when the sprint techs looked at it...I was just wondering if there was anything that could temporally be done to work around that since the stupid policy that Sprint has is to not replace the phone on the spot after the 14th day, and that day is when this started....
Now I guess I have to wait. Oh well, I only use the phone for everything, including business....
LG G4
My phone is doing the exact same thing.....
Just started happening!!!
I finally ran into the bootloop problem that is common with early G4's (if you have a serial number that starts with 505, you're basically gonna be screwed at some point). Since it's a hardware issue that LG acknowledges, I sent it back to the factory under warranty, waited for two weeks using my old backup phone, and finally received it back today.
Ready for the fun part? They had repaired something that wasn't broken (kind of like surgery on the wrong body part) and had not touched the bootloop issue! They fixed "No power with cable" by replacing the flash memory. This was never an issue. The frustrating thing is that they didn't even restart the phone to find out if it had been fixed, because if they had it would have gone right back into the bootloop. Arg!
The G4 is now back on route to LG. I said they should give me a new phone, but customer service said they only do that if it cannot be repaired. I'll keep my fingers crossed that they go to the trouble to turn on the phone after "repair" this time.
Thanks for letting me rant!
I have currently my 2nd G4 that has run into this issue. This one has serial number starting with 506, so I guess it might stem a little further into production also. This is driving me nuts, I could not send my phone to LG because of how long it takes so had Verizon send me one and of course I run into the same exact issue with the bootloops. Last time I was able to still flash kdz's, this time won't even go past the LG boot screen. Really wish I could wipe my data at least.
I can attest to LG's incompetence. On March 2nd I sent in my G4 because it was bootlooping. Sent it in no problem, and after about a week I received my G4 back with the problem "fixed" by flashing the memory. Well guess what, it wasn't fixed. As soon as I turned it on, it started to bootloop again. I called LG and they arranged another RMA. Sent it back again, and about a week and a half later, I had my G4 back. This time they "fixed" it by replacing a capacitor. Guess what! Still not fixed. It still continued to bootloop. Called LG extremely angry and filed a complaint. LG arranged another RMA. At this point I had been without my phone for over 20 days. Finally, LG fixed it properly by replacing the motherboard. Now its fixed and it only took them over a month to figure it out.
While I applaud their easy RMA process, whoever the idiots are actually doing the repair are just that.. idiots. Its as if they don't even turn the phone on and ensure it fully boots up before they claim its fixed and ship it back. Whats worse for me is my phone was rooted on VS986B. Got the phone back on Marshmallow 24C and it took the update to 25a overnight. Now I'm stuck with no way of rooting.....
When you get your phone back from LG, chances are it will be on 24C. If you plan on rooting, do so quickly and downgrade.

No, that's the same. The board was replaced, but the plastic piece that holds that battery, which is on top of the board, was not replaced.
Happy to report that all is well after the second repair. Came back with 6.0, but I downgraded to 5.1, rooted, and have just about everything working again (can't get Exposed to work, but I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually). Nothing like spending 3+ weeks on a 2011 Droid Bionic to make me appreciate my G4!
Would one of you care to explain how you contacted LG to set up the repair. I have filled out the online form twice and have never heard a word. Thanks.

Im not sure if you are in the U.S., but here's their support phone number 800 243-0000. They are usually pretty easy to deal with over the phone.
I am still kicking myself that I didn't downgrade as soon as I got my phone back. I hate not having root anymore.

Droid bionic.. I wish! I originally dug up my old Galaxy Nexus, but the battery life was so bad that I swapped it out for my son's old Droid Razr. Of course, I had to safestrap it and put a custom ROM on there because I have a LG G Watch R and android wear was not compatible with the factory software on the Razr. It was a pretty horrible experience overall. I'm glad I have my G4 back, but I really miss root.
You can still downgrade to 5.1 and root. Mine was on the latest version when it came from the factory and I didn't have any problems with the process.
Same thing happened to me. It took 3 RMA's in a row and about 60 days until they finally fixed it. They scratched it, too. OP, I highly recommend you start documenting everything. LG CS will also tell you escalating will get you nowhere; but with persistence you can get a hold of someone. You can only go up to a supervisor, and that's it. LG has specifically designed their CS (including their facebook and twitter) to contain and ignore you.
In less than 1 calendar year i am on my 3rd phone.. Figuring the 1st phone was a flop... serial numbers since my 1st phone are 511 and 505. So yeah.. im debating at what a ticking timebomb i havenow. The 3rd one came w/ MM installed but I downgraded to LL to keep root. Im sure it goes w/o saying that I'll not buy an LG phone ever again.. and this was my 1st one. They could offer to upgrade me to a G5, but honestly there are NO guarantees this sort of thing will happen again. You break trust you pay the price, look at Samsung w/ the no MicroSD card fiasco.
LG just accepted my 15 month old G4 for warranty repair
Even though my phone is 15 months old, LG has accepted it under warranty repair. When requesting repair I wrote that it was the bootloop issue but their repair confirmation states the issue is "No Power with Cable". I hope they fix the correct issue! BTW, my serial number began with 511
The US warranty is 18 months, so LG didn't do you any favors. I have three of these POS phones to get warranty repaired and hope they fix them correctly the first time.

I just got mine back today june 1st 2017, Sent G4 for bootloops 1st time a week ago. No power / Mainboard was replaced. it was purchased november 2015 and Serial number is 511 which is right after the supposed bad batch. I got the phone back in the same great condition it left. The repair guy reported phone condition has minor scratches when it doesn't, Not sure why he would report that. So far its working great, like a new phone. I can only hope this board has been redesigned to not fail under a year and a half, but thats just wishful thinking. Everything was completely free even though phone was like 5months+ after its warranty. Even though costumer service on phone sounded like she was doped out on crack and ignoring all my questions, it was still ez to do and I got it back fast. The IEMI number or whatever was also changed and they put a new sticker over top the old one under the battery. I tried checking the number on that website and it doesn't even have it registered so i can only hope its brand new.
Got a couple of VS986s back from bootloop warranty repair. Mainboards supposedly repaired, but IMEI stayed the same and nothing on label under battery changed . I recall other people mentioned changes to label information.
Last week a representative told me the current warranty on the G4 for this issue is 27 months from date of manufacture or 24 months from date of purchase.
Mine has S/N 508. It started bootlooping while I was pooping (browsing Facebook on Chrome browser) on June 5.
I attempted the hot-air rework station fix 5 times (for processor on mainboard), and that worked on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th tries. Each time the phone worked for up to ~4 hours. On the 5th try the phone no longer booted or even showed the LG logo.
It's en-route to LG right now. I opted to ship it without battery or back cover (my back cover has a wireless charging tag).
Using my old Samsung Galaxy S3 running an AOSP-variant on 4.4.2. Actually isn't a bad phone.
My old LG G2's touchscreen no longer responds to touches on roughly 50% of the screen... can't even unlock it via pattern lock any more.
Thinking LG won't be the next new phone I buy...
Well, my G4 is on its way back to me after LG's warranty repair. Turn-around time at the LG service facility was ONE (1) DAY!! So that was super fast. Should get it tomorrow or the day after. Contemplating putting it back up for sale or trade-in though... it's basically gonna be a virgin device that will require root, xposed, restoring apps/messages/call log/etc., then adjusting everything else to my liking. Would be a shame to do all that work and then the bootlooping problem happens again.
Here we go again...
Another LG phone having boot loops...
Bought from Best Buy on April 5TH with no protection...
May 6 phone started its random turn off....Have to do a battery pull and rest it for 10 minutes to get it to start up again..
After a min or two , it powers off again..
Yes, I was able to do soft and hard re-sets to no avail...
Just filed a repair request with LG...
Grrrrrrr

I had the same issue with Sprint LG G5. I bought it in April 13 the from Best Buy. It started to reboot 3 times at first and got real hot before it started rebooting. I took it to Sprint repair center where they suggested to do a factory reset. I told them I can do that. But before I was able to do a factory reset, it finally died. Sprint didn't want to replace the phone since I didn't have insurance. I might have to send it to LG for warranty repair which will take 9 business days. Do not buy the LG G5..
About a week and a half after I got my G5 it overheated really badly and turned itself off and wouldn't restart after attempting to reboot several times. I disconnected it from the power source let it cool off then plugged it in using the OEM power wart that came with the phone. That worked and the phone restarted. A week later the same happened. The phone overheated and attempted to restart several times and this time it seemed hotter than the first time. It turned itself off eventually and I was unable to turn it back on again. Less than three weeks into ownership and the phone was completely unresponsive and dead. I took it into the sprint dealership and they initially refused to replace the phone despite the fact it was under a month before this problem surfaced. They wanted to take the dead phone and have a new one shipped out to me. I told them that was unacceptable and they came up with the compromise that if I signed up for protection now they would backdate it and give me a new replacement phone. I took the deal with the full intention of canceling the protection plan within a month or two after I'm sure this new phone isn't going to be an issue. The new phone has been pretty solid for me so far. It gets warmer than I like but that may just be a product of hypersensitivity to heat after the first phone. That was the first time with any phone that I've ever had where a phone catastrophically failed on me like that. Sprint's response at the their shop was completely unacceptable given the time frame since purchase. I like the phone but I'm not liking how ownership of it is starting out. This was about two weeks ago now and I'm still gunshy with this phone afraid this new one is going to crash on me as well. I do not like that feeling. Thank God I have a backup phone just in case.
Goes to show phones these days are not built the same. I've had the g5 since day 1, not any of the problems I've read I've had since owning the phone. I got mine from a Sprint store also. Only issue I have is the slight lag I have when connecting to anything internet related. I believe that to be something kernel related.
sent from my g5

how long did it take to get the phone repaired through LG?
Reboot ahhhhhhhhhhh
My G5 keeps doing a reboot cycle but only on one app (wwe supercard) how can this app cause this issue??
Hey guys,
Yesterday I noticed some screen ghosting on my LG g4 on the top right where the battery icon, signal status etc are. I turned it off for 6 hours and noticed it got slightly better then i used an app which stimulates all the pixels on the screen for about 8 hours by flashing different colours. After this all ghosting went away but after i used my phone for about 2 minutes it made a new ghost. Please help me fix this permanently. I am currently using the same app with the intention of keeping it on for a full day.
It can't be fixed. However you could replace screen.

Honestly LG has given me the worst android experience to date. Had the damn phone for 3 months an it was the taiwanese g4 which has no way to unlock its bootloader. The worst part is that the screen ghosting came up on the same day i decided to sell it and buy a oneplus 3 instead. Now i wont be able to sell it for a good price and that means i can't afford the oneplus. Never buying from LG again.

I understand exactly what you mean.
i have it also and it's ANNOYING as hell!!! I returned mine 2 weeks ago not only because of this but also because i cannot see nor connect to a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network.
Just 2 months prior top this the phone killed itself (not even 1 year old) and had to get a new PCB. LG if you are reading this, i want my money back.
Note to the people, please don't buy LG crap!
LG G4 bootloop
The bootloop - problem on all the LG phones from the main series is caused due to a less safety check in fabric and causes cause the processor releases from the mainboard during heat, mechanical load etc and the connections were broken! To fix, the processor have to pushed back on the mainboard with heat - I think a hair dryer is a good way to do that
If there are any other problems with the CPU itself - I don't know but sometimes the processor itself can be partially damaged
I've even a G4 which has stoped working on June.04.'17 and I'll try to apply this step in a professional environment. (you've to fully open it, put a hair dryer on the processor, heat the processor and push it down on the mainboard) The best video on yt to do that: search for "LG G4 BOOTLOOP FIX REPAIR VIDEO"
>>By holding the vol+ -key and plug in the USB-cable it bootet once... ..and works... ..but then heats up! - That might work for quick saving data on the PC!<<
I hope that could help!

Hi all,
so here is my problem.
Day before yesterday i had a perfectly working LG g4 H815 model with s/n 511 running on firmware v20h, when i decided to root it and install some mods.
so i flashed TWRP, installed xposed and xtrememusic mod. the phone booted normally after installing these. i didn't install any modules under xposed. the phone worked perfectly for two days. however today morning it hanged while taking photo with the camera app. when restarting it got stuck at LG logo for long time. My brother(who doesn't have any technical knowledge) pulled out the battery and restarted. Again it got stuck at LG logo. thinking somthing wrong he again repeated this only to find that it didn't power on at all this time. No LG logo no notofication light nothing.
Tried charging it(although battery was aroung 60-70%), pressing power button removing the battery. still nothing. the phone is not at all powering up.
However when i connect it with USB cable with laptop, laptop makes sound of getting usb connection detected. i took it to a service centre.
the technical guy there told that IC may have been faulty. he told me that motherboard needs to be replaced. however unofficially he may try heating the IC to get it booting.
What should i do now? Is the IC really fried. had the rooting and installing mod caused it?
Please help.
PS- the phone is imported and cannot be sent back for warranty purpose.
I think you are experiencing the dreaded LG G4 bootloop. I don't think rooting or modding caused a software problem. It "may" have caused a hardware problem simply because it generated enough heat to loosen the IC that little bit that initiates the problems you are describing. I rooted and installed the stock image in Nov 2015. Two weeks ago the phone froze - restarted and then could not be booted. LG sent me a Fedex label and I sent it off. Ten days later I received the same phone back. I assume they replaced the mainboard.
You should contact LG directly. I saw a class action suit that was called off because it appeared that LG will fix this particular problem (failed mainboard) out of warranty. Anyone please correct me on this if I'm wrong.

Hi thanks for the help.
But isn't the dreaded bootloop is that where the phone is stuck at the LG logo. Mine isn't booting at all. And the bootloop problem is due to big cores or such and not due to ic?
Mine wouldn't start at all - it bootlooped once for about a split second - then it was dead
Same is the problem with me. Bootlooped twice and then its completely dead. I have tried contacting Lg UK. Lets see what they say.
Ok so i got a reply from LG and they suggested me some steps to take (which are obviously not useful as it is completely dead). however they have also told me that they are willing to help me and asked me about details of purchase etc and "whether it was rooted".
so what should i reply rooted or not? will they detect it as it is dead.

Sorry to be late on reply. I advise to not answer question whether phone was rooted. Here is my reasoning:
1. This problem is widely occuring - only a tiny percentage of people root their phones therefore question is irrelevant.
2. The problem is known to be that an IC becomes loose most likely due to heat - a better question would be - do you place the phone on a hot dashboard with GPS running while you are charging?

thanks for the reply (although late). i have already sent the phone to LG replying as no root. Lets hope they repair it without any problems.
second i didnt do anything of anysort like placing on hot dashboard or such. one day while opening the camera app it decided to just hang and later on die on me.
I hope you didn't think I was saying you might have done something that would overheat your phone such as my second example. I was trying to come up with an example reason the IC loosens. Even if you did that the phone should survive such conditions. Let's hope the replacement motherboards somehow do better. My guess is that the soldering job is fine, the problem is probably bad design that doesn't "vent" the heat from chip.

so what do you suggest after repair should i keep it or sell it? Lg g4 is no doubt the best phone when considering the value for money. no phone even twice in price comes close in camera and screen quality especially. but the unreliability of this phone has made me to consider selling it as soon as i get it back.
I'd keep it if your new board is high serial

Well my old board was also high serial, beginning with 511
I'm going to take my chances - it's a great phone until it bootloops. I'm going to avoid scenarios best I can that could result in the phone heating up inside. That would be charging only if absolutely necessary while in my ProClip dash mount if the car is hot, using backup battery after depletion instead of charging more often etc. Thinking back I rarely put the phone into heat inducing situations - normal use results in the IC becoming loose at the 1 year mark. If mine bootloops exactly a year from now and LG fixes it again I'm an LG fan. If they blow me off no more LG.
I really regret not paying it off early and taking the $15/month deal for an S7 Edge last month
