Hi,
I have just return from US and I got a LG Leon from MetroPCS to sty connected while there. Now that I am back I unlocked the phone via unlock app. My surprise came when I put me Spanish SIM card (Jazztel) and the phone only gets 2g connection. I have been searching the net and I found some threads on the topic but I can not make any of them work on my phone. First I tried changing the radio to Europe mode through *#*#4636#*#*, and I enter the test page but when I click the phone info button I get a message that states that I can not run that application on this device. I thought it was because I wasn't root so I rooted it. But before I could root I had to downgrade by flashing an older firmware. No way, I get the same message. I tried the hidden menu to see if I could find an entry to change the radio mode, or any type of LTE configuration. Hidden menu on my phone though 277634#*#. I also tried the anycut option, but I do not get any facility called LTE configuration or similar.
I am desperate and I do not know how to proceed. Any help is welcome
Thanks in advance
Dear community,
when I updated my dual sim phone H818p (AME region) via OTA to MM - version v20c, I realized that phone calls and SMS messaging do not work after the phone is encrypted. When trying to take or receive a call no connection is established and the phone app gets stuck. Additionally SIM2 does not connect automatically to the network anymore. Interestingly, internet via phone providers still works on both SIMs. This phenomenon is reversible, in unencrypted mode everything works flawlessly. Since I need encryption for use as company phone I have a real problem here.
I meanwhile also tried to flash the new version v20d which was recently released in Europe, but encountered the same bug with this ROM. Also resetting the phone to factory settings or flashing the ROM in refurbish mode with full memory wipe did not change a thing.
LG support (I have to use Middle East because of the phone region AME) is not very helpful. They only offer help if I send the phone in and do not comment on the issue itself.
In case anyone has similar issues with MM on the H818p (or other phones of the LG G4 family), please let me know, especially if you have found a fix to this problem.
Back to Lollipop
Since nothing worked to solve my problem with any MM version of the H818p stock software, I wnet back to Lollipop via LGUP - v10l. Very disappointing that LG apparently distributes software via OTA which has such serious flaws.
Update: I am back to Android 6 via OTA. Via another entry I learned that the bug disappears, when deactivating the SIM-lock and restarting the phone. Now phone calls and SMS work normal again also while the phone is encrypted.

I have same problem. Help us someone please . Thanks
The new zvc update blocks the hidden menu. Look in the sprint threads. Do not attempt downgrade or brick will occour. And there is apparantly no zvc tot or kdz yet so no fix. The only option is a 3rd party remote unlock service. That can also unlock the apn menu so you can have data also. If not you will get calls but no data or mms.
The resason for no downgrade is sprint and lg increased the antirollback increment higher so no zvb-zv8 any more.
But as history goes with sprint lgs. Everytime the anti rollbqck goes higher a firmware ussually gets released. Same seems true as for the sprint g4.
This happened to me as well, any luck finding a solution? We already have talked to Sprint, but they say the phone still is unlocked in their end, however the phone still says invalid sim.
Maybe try "Unlock UICC" under the system updates menu? I'm on factory rom with no hidden menu stuff. But had to do "Unlock UICC" even after Sprint said they had unlocked the phone for me.
When ever sprint unlocks and post lg g2 you have to also click uicc. They aprove it but its like a profile update

Hello there fellows, i'll try to make my question simple. My uncle got a new phone so he threw away his old one which i took, its an LG V10 H901 its T-Mobile if i'm not mistaken, Anyways I'm out of Canada for a long time now and the phone is fully unlocked and runs on all the networks i was able to test, but its running android lollipop and i really upgrade to nougat, but from a previous experience with a Galaxy S6, upgrading just like that might lock back the network, and i have no idea if its the same case for this V10 too, as i am not in Canada anymore even contacting T-Mobile won't be that easy at all (tried before), so what i wanna know is, will the network get locked if i upgrade the Android ? as i'm going to do it manually since i can't receive OTA outside the region.
All informations are appreciated, and thanks in advance.
Edit: In T-mobile website where i enter the IMEI to see if my device is illegible for unlocking i got a congratulations saying my device can be unlocked.
- Also, The phone is rooted so my guess the bootloader should be unlocked right ? (Stock recovery btw). Now the weird part about that is that when i try to reboot to fastboot/bootloader from Terminal/ ADB/ Volume Down And USB/ Application With Root, there is no fastboot or bootloader i guess, i even found a similar post on the forums here but no answer for it too!
Now my guess that flashing the KDZ will flash all partitions and fix it but i am still afraid of the carrier lock!
In general, once a phone is unlocked, it stays unlocked forever as long as it disables the sim lock check in the phone and updating the software or doing factory reset doesn't change that. From what I have read and researched previously, the sim unlock status is stored and enforced via a certain partition on phone for example, in some phones it is nvram or nv data partition, the same partition that stores phone's IMEI number as well. It is not likely that you will loose sim unlock status just by updating to nougat.
But do keep in mind that that some of the LG V10 H901 T-Mobile versions have a korean motherboard where LG Bridge tries to update it with the wrong version of the rom bricking the phone, and people have reported here on XDA that even after unbricking they lost their IMEI info from the phone permanently and phone modem stops working.
I would suggest that you make sure which sub-variant of the H901 you have before you attempt to do any flashing, especially through LG UP.
I personally just bought a used H901 myself and was trying to decide if my phone is one of the ones with korean motherboard.
I recently picked up a used Sprint Stylo 4 that appears to have a clear ESN according to Swappa but a strait sim swap from my iPhone 6 plus to the Stylo 4 just results in a brief 3G internet connection, no texting and finally “sim locked” which requires a reboot. I have tried resetting the phone and triggering the activation as desribed on Boost mobiles site but I’m afraid the sim card is either an issue(original sim from my iPhone 6 plus which is a Sprint to Boost convert) or Its somehow still active on Sprint? The model number is the same as the Boost version so its hard to believe its impossible to get functioning as it partially works initially.
FYI, i do have the sim card that the Stylo 4 was actived on Sprint if that makes any difference like it did with my iPhone.
Thanks in advance for any insight. I gave google a workout before coming here but couldn't find much on what it takes to move an Android on Sprint to Boost besides “its possible but the model has to be supported on Boost to switch from Sprint”.
Did you wipe the phone? Sometimes droids will download a provisioning package for the carrier the SIM belongs to and that needs to be deleted (hard reset) first. Otherwise, you may need a new SIM card.
I cannot post in the main section because I am a mute. But I have a Boost LG Stylo 4 (LGQ710AL) Think the firmware ended with an H. But my problem is it is not booting I assume it was doing an ota update. Per my daughter. I can get into download mode. It tries to go into Recovery says loading then shuts off or reboots. I use Eft dongle to factory reset it to try and fix it. Below is what it says.
"Images of verified boot not installed all slots are unbootable."
If we had the LGUP Dll or a stock rom it may be an easy fix been a while since I played with LG. If anyone has a stock rom or the OTA updates would be a small start.
Thanks.
If it helps at all this is what eft said about boot_a and boot_b but it does not see to pull them.
<partition name="boot_a" part_id="??" start_addr="218112" length="261119">
<partition name="boot_b" part_id="??" start_addr="261120" length="304127">
