I don't know if you are informed but in the last weeks there were very bad news about this company:
- LeCloud closes on June 30
- Job cuts in India and in the USA
- Former employees have denounced LeEco and they are creating a new company
- CEO & CFO dismissals
- Arrests for industrial espionage
- Sale of land purchased in the USA
- Allegations of misappropriation
- Missed the deal with Vizio
- Closing of the EcoPass service
Well, what about the future of this company?
Who will supports our devices?
Noone knows I think, it's cheap phone with good specs so people buy it. If you worry maybe buy other brands instead. LeEco is like living on the edge now but they still make new phone I think. Don't worry they not shutdown yet.

The situation is worse than you think, trust me.
Seems like they might even not release le max 3 (x850) despite the early image leaks few months ago ?
I heard that they stopped smartphone production.
I read this:

i don't know what s your intention in spamming a developers forum with this off topic question again and again ?
I got 2 LeEco phones I am not worry, you can still use the phone whatever happen. They just bought Coolpad too so I don't think it's bad maybe people assume too much.

It's a thread for discuss about the bad situation of the company and I posted it in a Q&A section, so don't bother me. The double post was an error.

I'm worried because everyone is waiting for the new EUI 6 based on Nougat (they released a device in 2017 with Marshmallow!), everyone is waiting for the new hi-end lineup but they seems dead. What are they doing?

Not everyone, what we got for stock Eui Marshallow 21S, 23S, 26S everything work fine. If you like flashing there is also many custom Nougat roms to enjoy . Even with new stock Nougat rom, not much change for the device maybe some cosmetics stuff, looks etc which not really matter for me.
If I like update/new rom I will buy Xiaomi or Google phone not LeEco.

For every company, update their smartphones is an obligation (security patch and so on) and a demonstration of seriousness. I'm using the Resurrection Remix on my Le Max 2 and Nougat custom ROMs are incomplete just because LeEco still doesn't release Nougat officially.

As I said you can use stock Marshallow roms everything work fine. 6.0,7.1, 8.0 what's the difference? not much
Before I bought the phone I know the situation for the official rom update we might get or not get it. Above all there are more important things in life than smart phone.

Please, don't make philosophy in a tech forum. Nougat is a too much important upgrade (especially for big smartphones) to be ignored. Why are you defending this company so much? These are the facts and they are not good.

Nobody is complaining we have custom roms that's enough. You can complain to LeEco if you are not happy or sell the phone and be happy.

ok, to lift your confusion: the "developer" in "xdadevelopers" stands for "developer" - so yes, if you just want to complain about the leeco company policies, you're definitly in the wrong place

Well, I'm using Le Max 2 as daily driver and the company must release Nougat or at least the source code to allow the development of Nougat custom ROMs without bugs.
And yes, you are defending the company.

It's so difficult to just talk about the situation without polemicize or "fanboying"?
You're being obnoxious... People aren't buying this phone because of the LeEco brand, they're buying the Le Max 2 because it's a $196 phone with unbeatable specs for the price. There's no brand loyalty involved, it could've been from any other random Chinese brand for all I care. TBH, you have to be pretty ****ing stupid to expect any kind of support, either from the online Chinese stores that sell this phone to you at heavily discounted prices, or LeEco, a brand that I never heard of until recently. I already knew that their smartphone division was failing, so as people have been telling you... we bought this phone because of the specs and decent XDA support, I never expected LeEco to provide updates, matter of fact, some of the Le Max 2 variants ship with stock ROMs that have no update function like the American X829 variant.
The device is VERY affordable for the price of $49.99.. with a number port or new line of service..
Some Dealers are even giving it away free with a new line of service.
But.. this device overall draws No Interest even though you get some decent features for a decent price.
Maybe it's because there is no way to revert it back to stock for the foreseeable future for warranty issues or upgrades.. maybe it's having to look at that Warning message everytime you boot up once you unlock the bootloader.. I don't know.
But.. for $49.99 who cares? The Stylo 3+ will do rooted stock with Xposed and some modules.
The Moto E4 / G5s lines along with Xiaomi seem to be your best bet for sub $200.00 devices with a plethora of support.
Thanks For Reading :good:
This phone isn't $50. It's over $200. I agree, though. We do need a dev who can work on Lineage. I'm actually fine with the stock ROM for now.

But.. with MetroPCS you can port over a number from another carrier.. and Yes.. you can get the LG Stylo 3 Plus for just $49.99.. plus 1 Month's service and Tax based on the retail price.. ( If applicable in your state ) so.. if you paid over $200.00.. well I don't know what to say..

I Sorry You Were Not Informed Of My Past Purchases....
But... Let me direct your attention to the attached picture below...
You See.... I HAVE HAD T-MOBILE POSTPAID... again, sorry no one informed you of that BEFORE you presumed to know my past.
And... Please.. correct me if I'm wrong.. but I do believe the specifications of the T-Mobile variant and the MetroPCS variant are EXACTLY the same.. again I may be off a spec or two..
Bottom line is.. basically the same device.. Using The Same Towers and one cost $225.00 and the other $49.99.
Frankly, I don't care if my bill is paid 30 days prior of 40 days post...... as long as it's paid.
So.. I'll just keep my MetroPCS variant and use the $170.00 or so savings on other things.
Sorry off subject.
Has anyone successfully flash factory firmware in case of soft brick? For warrenty issues any sucees in custom recovery then bootloader lock in cause one would like to avoid warrenty by unlocking boot loader?
I purchased as second phone. Willing to develop if there is a way to relock bootloader, if there is such a thing. I haven't had time for development since the LG V10

Hello.. And Welcome To The Party..
Unfortunately, there is no "Stock Factory Firmware" ( a.k.a. KDZ in LG lingo..) I just called LG on this matter yesterday.. and inquired out of curiosity as to when it might be released.. No E.T.A. whatsoever.
Just for kicks.. I inquired about the security patch still being of the April variety.. again, no answer as to when that will be updated as well..
But when it comes to the security patch.. it really does not matter when you unlock your boot loader.. that action alone Opens The Door... to Malware and any other violation you can think of when it comes to Jacking You Up.
That's why companies frown upon having a boot loader with the ability to be unlocked.. they don't want you coming back to them crying with a compromised or bricked device.
Personally, I like the way Motorola / Lenovo does it... and if I ran a company it's certainly the way that I would do it.. Keep it stock, and we have you covered.. or, wave your warranty and they give you the code to unlock your boot loader.. Then You Are On Your Own.. and they have a record of you ASKING to wave your warranty.. and that gives them the right to Refuse fixing your goof ups.
I understand we need to start emailing LG so that they released the firmware we didn't was the LG K10 and now every variant of it has been rooted has TWRP and all firmwares are available.
What about using something like LG up or uppercut to extract the firmware from my stock LG Stylo 3 plus?
I don't have the time two develop, or full knowledge on what is needed to be done for LG MP450.
I'm debating on going back to Metro and just picking up the Stylo 2 plus considering developers are already working on it. Resurrection and lineage are released for Stylo 2. Also there are already released for the LG K-10 not sure what variant you're using I use MetroPCS so mine would be the ms428.
I don't really see any hardware specs that are better on the Stylo 3 than the Stylo 2 other than the internal memory but my goal is to use my 128 GB SDXC card. I can partition some of it to be adaptable another partition to be storage (FAT32) and two other partitions for link2sd and Swapper (EXT4) and lastly swap.
Stylo 3+ Not For You ?

LG will release the firmware at some point... Actually, the stock firmware runs just fine.. I have not seen any glitches.. even when I had 100% of LG's setup installed. I'm down to about 30% factory and 70% personal and I'm getting 12+ hours of S.O.T. ( I posted some pics in another thread ) I don't think LG is in a rush.. there is nothing terribly wrong.. "If It Ain't Broke...."
If it's a bunch of ROM's you are looking for... you picked the wrong phone. by the time there is a choice of ROM's there will be a whole new choice of phones to choose from..
The Moto G5s Plus comes to mind.. if you look at the INCREDIBLE support the G5 Plus has ( I owned one but the 5.2 inch screen was just a little too small for me ) Just wait until the G5s Plus with it's 5000 maH battery and 5.5 inch screen and $129.00 price has a few months under it's belt.. it will be "The" bang for the buck device to own if you enjoy Root & ROM's..
Guys is this device has a front flash ?
techboy11 said:
I'm not quite sure what you're asking mate? I don't believe this phone has a front flash for the camera, but I just got mine yesterday so I haven't tried it yet.
---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 AM ----------
So, let me start off by saying, I'm a hobbyist developer myself. Haven't posted a lot (if at all, to my closest friends) things that I've done for the many Android phones I've owned in the past. I just happen to grab this interesting device yesterday in Canada. Looking at this thread in particular, I don't believe this would be a form of motivation for me to start developing anything for this phone publicly, whether it be for the requested Metro PCS "cheaper" model, or what have you.
The OP seems to suggest that most developers can't afford phones, which I personally find offensive, as I work my butt off to go through as many phones as I do/have. Sure, I've seen a few, which I find them to be genuine and supportive of their work, I've never minded supporting.
This thread also feels like most "ETA??" threads that I've seen for even more popular phones I've had, such as my beloved recent Nexus 6P.
All in all, this is just my two cents. I'll keep following and lurking around to see if someone decides to work out something for the Stylo. I've never owned the Stylo variant of LG phones before, and so far I love it as just stock, which is a very new (and good) feeling for me.
~Cheers

nvm
just got this phone today so if any devs ever pick up please contact me if you need testers.
No I'm actually happy with the phone I don't need a bunch of ROMs. I'm comfortable with unlocking the bootloader and flashing stock. My only concern was through MetroPCS they have the phone replacement program if something happens to your phone you pay the deductible and get a new one. I know that unlocking the bootloader blow void the warranty not sure how that works with paying the $6 a month in case the phone is lost or stolen.
I would actually like to start developing on my own again. Although I've been out of the game for a few years I know I can get back into it fairly easily. Because of my circumstances I am going to stick with the LG Stylo 3 plus from Metro PCS. As of now I disable any OTA updates I have yet to unlock Bootloader install custom recovery and root phone.
I am paying for the $6 a month extra to replace phone if lost or stolen. Or if during the process of development I broke it and I can say it was lost or stolen. I do like the phone. Thank you so much for being around hopefully within the next day or two I can grab my sisters laptop and install custom recovery, root, ROM is available. And go from there
stock
Is there any way I can get the stock firmware?

as a kdz is out, i started creating the tree
I always been a big fun of HTC, but when I dropped my Samsung, I was shopping for the phone with good battery life. U11 came out at the same time but was nothing excited about it and I looked at LG G6. No doubt, it was a great looking phone, probably the best looking no-bezel phone at the time of it’s release. Awesome battery life and only $599
So… I got one from HK. It came with all toys including large memory 64Gb of RAM and Quad DAC audio processing. But no wireless charging. Its for US market only. Smart people at LG probably thought it’s a great idea to give SEA customers more RAM because their songs are longer. Someone must’ve spent lot’s of money on this research. US model came with no Quad DAC…
So now one year later, my phone sitting with September 2017 security update. Indian model had March update already. Again, LG must think there is a reason to secure this particular region more than HK. Who will hack anything in HK one may ask?
Just before releasing LG7, LG creates software update center to ensure updates and updates Korean version just before LG7 is released with another gimmick called ThinQ. And yes, it’s not even Oreo 8.1
So will you upgrade to G7, which cost almost $1000, has nothing to offer other than AI (which was promised to be on 8.0 update for G6, but isn’t) Will you buy any of LG phones? You guess my answer…
I love my G6, I can run it almost 2 days, wide lens camera is awesome, but I do not have phone which manufacture will obsolete in less than 1 year.
Luckily HTC U12 will be out at the end of the month, I can wait.
I can wait for OnePlus 6 as well..

And when you buy the phone you know it have no wireless charger, or not?
I don't know why people use xda only for complaining, never a solution. And I don't speak about your particular situation, but in general. Some of mine last phone was oneplus 3t and nexus 6, and people complain about update also on them. Thing like 'OMG yesterday pixel 2 got this and we not, why, cry...' or 'never another oneplus because....' all the time.
I normally choose a phone because I like it, if I don't I buy something else.
If I buy a thing and after some time I write on the forums that this thing is horrible, I think I will appear dumb...
Nothing personal, just my two cents.
No Way I do the same mistake and buy an LG phone again! Very bad supporr.
This company does not respect their costumers
Nah I'm getting a Pixel or OnePlus in a few years. LG is getting bad. I don't like the software skin either.

Fact is that G5 received more updates (and it's actually more up to date here in Europe) than G6 in the same window of time, this is not a predictable thing, moreover when G5 was one of the first devices to receive Nougat.

You are right, that is a big problem, we can cry together until LG do something.
In your list of reasons why you bought the phone was there any though given to the update frequency? Yes, because lg said that the device was to get updates on par with the other devices released at the time. Google is getting ready to drop Android P and we're still on 7 that in itself is reason enough to be disappointed in lg. I think I'm still on the Dec patch. They can't even get those to us with some reliability. Then there's the locked versions where you can't root the thing and do it yourself if nothing else.

Hi everyone,
As title i'm planning to buy this phone soon (after seeing if oneplus 6t is worth it) and reading around i see there are few problems I should be wary of after buying one.
As for now I know some have touch latency issues and screen bleeding. There is something else i should note after getting mine so i don't have to return it when i already transfered all my stuff in it?
Thanks

Like another user said to a potential buyer like u, Don't read posts on forum.
On a more serious note, some phones do have unacceptable screen bleed and if u r one of those few unlucky ones be prepared to fight for replacement. Touch issue has been solved to a great extent in the new beta today. Latency might be there but doesn't bother in daily use and I can't comment really as i am not a gamer.
Lemme be of some assistance as I come from OnePlus 3t and was in a dilemma same as u. It's been 5 days now with the phone and all I can say is it is amazing. It has the best SOT, processor and has 4g+ coz of which my Jio Volte works blazingly fast. Camera maybe a bit downgrade from Onplus 6t but can take beautiful shots in daylight. Face unlock has ir so work in night time. I love the theming options on this phone. GCAM works without magisk. Gesture control is awesome and easy to learn although takes a bit of a time. And MIUI 10 in beta stage is good . Haven't tested all apps but Ola crashes and had to download Twitter alpha build from apkmirror. Attaching a pic which I took in AI Mode.
Thanks for the reply, i'm not really looking for reason to buy it since i'm already decided to but looking for what are the possible defect i can find so i can keep the one i receive or send it back before i start using it.
I broke my cherry on this device as far as Mods and Rom etc, And I am very sad that there isn't more options available for upgrades and the like. It also sucks that OnePlus isn't offering any support for the device. I Come to the XDA site every day at least once, and I see all the other fancy devices getting all the love. GRRR! Are there any other options for this thing tha tI am missing or GSI that will work? I think I am just bored and need some more things to play with. I don't have money so I can't go out and just get another device so I am trying to keep this one going as long as I can. Any feedback is appreciated OnePlus
