The only way is to edit build prop which requires root, and we don't have that

How to enter G4 Hidden Menu?

As the title says, whats the code to enter hidden menu in LG g4? Tried 3845#*818# but didnt work (mine is H818P model).
My goal is to turn off fast dormancy if possible. Thanks
Same here on h815 the code 3845#*815# doesn't return anything.
same whats the hidden menu for?
I need to access it to turn off fast dormancy
No one?
This maybe quite important to people in some countries with no fast dormancy support. No carrier fast dormancy support while phone requests it = bad battery drain.
Try 277634#*# I believe poking in the menu I saw mention of Fast dormancy.

Oh sir you are the man! Thanks!
If you using Nova Launcher maybe you can find it under "Activities" and set it to shortcut or gesture. I did it before with some smartphones.

I'm using 818p and it works..
Try to activate developer options, maybe it works then.
Yes it works now.
277634#*# on T-Mobile works but the UI is so Froyo style... Worst UI ever specifically on a Lollipop device, on the LG G3 at the Lollipop update they updated the UI at the hidden menu as well but it was never Android 2.1 style, now is the question how this even got to that so old looking UI that the G4 never saw that version of Android!
BTW,
The 277634#*# menu is not the full hidden service menu like in the 3845#*8xx# menu. I still looking for the full menu code because I can't find it through Nova Launcher Activities.
277634#*#
working on my LG H815TR.
It's service test menu.

Using Google Translate:
Improved call quality. Improved touch/text input performance. Low-light, close-up camera shooting. Improved image quality. Improved GPS stability. Google regular security updates have enhanced mobile phone security. Internet access has been improved.
---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 PM ----------
Only thing I see added by the second update is "Some apps now have the ability to vibrate after ringing."
After the first update the camera was visible much better but after the second update not so good.
It sims more fluid the interface..there were an update for the home too

Probably the same, I would think. Just LG firmware update -- not Android OS updates. It's already on the latest version of Nougat. Oreo wouldn't be rolling out yet.
Got the update too. So nice to see that LG doesn't have the same ****ty deal as Huawei phones do where u need sim cards from the region it got bought to update the firmware...
Updated too.
It seems a little more responsive.
The screen is better.
So far so good
No updates to LG V30 H930 yet.. Come on LG...

As you know MAC address will be unique to each device, maybe the company wanted to save some money on license cost by duplicating the MAC address.
@maumauns
sometimes custom firmware can change the mac-address.
it can be fixed manually.

Similar issue, http://www.tomsguide.com/forum/id-2193874/phones-mac-address.html
Check physically on you bill, invoice box and match if both device share same mac address, if its the case and If its in warranty, then go to service centre, if its not same then may be rom have changed your MAC.

Clearly their resolve crumbled in the face of me boycotting them! [emoji28]
Seriously, this was sorely needed. I had sworn off buying another LG in large part because of the lack of updates to the locked Canadian models. I would still like to see them allow bootloader unlocking of all variants, but if timely security patches start coming, I would consider them again for my next device. Good move LG [emoji106]

Seconded, we've all heard the same crap from various oem's before and none of it has been true, so I'll take this with a healthy dose of scepticism till events prove otherwise.
Read this on a couple sites yesterday and almost died of laughter!
I should have learned from the V20, but I guess I'm a slow learner. Can't wait to dump LG for good when the Pixel 3 XL comes out.
Don't hopeful. Until now, H930 and H930DS user still unknow what time they receive update Oreo.

Nothings changed. This is pr talk. "Lets get some news coverage and tell people we really changed"
If you're a global smartphone manufacturer and still dont have a team working on updates in 2018, you're seriously doing it wrong.

No, because this phone didn't launch with Oreo last year. Everyone needs to forget Treble for this phone.
Treble wouldn't have any benefit anyway for him. His bootloader locked phone would still be bootloader locked. Treble is not the magic elixir to allow dev work on phones.
Treble iks to theoretically give faster updates.
For dev work, Treble only helps devs on phones that already have bootloader unlock and have methods to flash root .

I am trying to get hotspot working on Oreo.
Didn't get a chance to add apn under N so the menu is hidden. I can reset apn and see the menu for a split second so I know it is in there.
Any idea how to get it?

Yeah, I heard about this Sprint APN lockout on Oreo. It's Sprint's attempt to carrier lock down the phone even more. For editing the APN, do any of the hidden menu app still work on the Sprint phone?

Go over to the gsm unlock thread. Download the hidden call menu apk. Go to the iot settings near bottom. Then LTE settings. And APN. Here u can add edit and select your apn. Cannot be done in stock settings app or reg## menus without msl. This allows for no root and no msl. Editing. Lol. About damn time we figured this out

I dont have the link right off but google hidden menu call apk not hidden call menu
Today (14th of April) will be the 92nd day since last update for the TIM H930G (same for H930 and H930DS variants).
Remember when LG announced that their amazing phone is Android Enterprise certified, that there will be 90 days between each update in worst case scenario? Oreo update in Q1 2018 ?
This is my first and last LG phone and I'm already thinking about ditching it. I'd rather flash custom ROMs but they're locking their phones like no other manufacturer.

Missing function: WiFi-Calling

Hello,
i'm new to xda and need your help.
I've got the H815 EUR-version with Imperium Rom v14.2[20p] with Software V20p-EUR-xx.
Because of my bad cullular radio in my home I want to try WiFi-Calling, but there is no setting in the call-option.
There's a video on Youtube where the function is available:
youtube.com/watch?v=gvB2TZvo7jU
In the end of the video you can see the software: H81220W, MRA58K, Android 6
So it's an canadian LG G4...
Do someone of you can set up WiFi-Calling with a H815 EUR?
Is there maybe a mod or other way to include the Wifi-Calling function to my LG G4?

Your provider/carrier must support it in general .
Your contract must have it included.
The ROM must support it (so mostly only carrier ROMs will do).
It must be enabled in the ROM .
So enabling it in the ROM is just the last step here ..
If the rest of the above is yes then you can enforce that setting in the LG hidden menu but again this will not help if the rest above isn't true/possible
