did everybodies G4 bootlooped? i see no updates and forum had very little activity. seems to me like its dead.
Well there's no development unless someone develop a way to bump the phone's bootloader so that we all can install TWRP, and therefore custom ROMs...

Bootloop is common.... It's a known problem you don't have to do anything.

Been out of the G4 community for awhile but thinking about getting one (I found a deal that's pretty cheap on a working model) - did something change with an update that has now proven to be a problem for the bootloader and being unlocked?
I'll do more research of course but I figured I'd just ask and see if that gets me the info faster.
I had heard that over heating had cause some the bootlope problem.
Mine use to get hot i took care of that issue that i was having.

true that kills it thanks to bootloaders locked. and so is the bootloop issue keeping people away from G4.. hope someday steadyfasterx can make it happen. soon.:fingers-crossed:

it plays a role but this just makes the problem show up earlier. very slim chances if you get a 601 onwards.
It's 'dead' because of bootloader obviously. Bootloop causes people to go away from this phone, but we would have something left after them. We don't even have a proper G5 Port while G3 is rocking it for a year... More of that, we can have Nougat UX 6.0 port 'easily' but it requires experts to work on that. 2015 was a hard year for smartphones. Every of major phones was a flaw. G4 bootloop, S6 RAM battery camera, HTC M9 was bad at everytbing, Sony? It's just Sony who buys it. Till nexus 6p(which also loops?????) there wasn't a good phone in 2015. 2016 is much better. We got Galaxy S6 2.0(or did they call it S7 afterwards to increase sales? jk), we had HTC comeback in style, LG failed once again, OnePlus released their best phone. Compare those two years... 2015 is at loss

I took my g4 apart and added a small layer of thermal compound and a very small heat sink.
No over heating any more.

No, actually it's an F500S, oddly enough. Because I live in Las Vegas and we have tourists from all over the planet here constantly there's always a chance that when I buy a device from someone on craigslist it's either a lost one that some tourist left behind in a cab or at a bar or something or somebody flat out stole it from them and the risk is that it'll be blacklisted. This one I just bought for $35 is working, in good condition but with some cosmetic issues on the frame, the front glass it pristine without a mark on it thankfully. It was apparently sold by SK Telecom so it's the Korean model (I think, I literally just got home and sat down as I'm typing this).
I have no idea what it's capable of but it does have a PIN code lock on it. I put my T-Mobile SIM card in it and it connected fast so I know it'll work but I've got to do some research on either bypassing the PIN code lock or just doing a clean flash of the factory ROM (if I can track that down) and going from there. It could always have the Google FRP on it so I'd have to figure out how to get around that as well (there's always a way it seems, sometimes it's just a pain in the ass to do it but it can be done).
So, at the moment it works, no guarantees if it'll suffer from the bootloop, of course, but the serial number is 505KPMZxxxxxx and the date code on the battery is 2015.04.28 so it literally is a 1st production run model.
I know it could die at any moment, sadly, but I'll see what happens. I don't play games on smartphones so really the only time a smartphone ever gets warm because of CPU usage in my experience is running a benchmark like Antutu (which I'm just not going to do with this G4, I know how it performs already) or installing a ROM/the initial first boot which churns along like crap by design.
Wish me luck...

my stock oem its getting weak. i used accubattery and out of 3000mah it charges 1880mah.
still have another trend on 3000mah that last like stock.. i use fecebook app. since my carrier gives me 9GB and i must use the app not browser.. i get around 3 hour using data connection and with trend on i get 4 hour.
are you charging yours with battery in phone and stock charger or you take battery out and use a separate charger. they say our phone stops at 3000mah if you have 5000mah or 8000mah. wich battery you got?

Hello guys!
Is it possible to make v20 unlock using facial recognition technology? I know that lg g6 didn't have that feature when it was released, but they added it with updates.

Go to Lock Screen and then Smart Lock, you'll see "Trusted face". You should have enabled Pattern or PIN unlock first.

In my experience this feature work really bad on lg phones. In motorola phones it work like a charm. You can try anyway!
Yeah, it's not "instant unlock". Fingerprint is still better.

yeah i tried facial unlock with my old S3 for a long time.. it was so finicky it was pointless to use.. thats when i decided my next phone had to have a fingerprint... first went with HTC 10.. but sold that due to money issues.. but now back on phone with fingerprint and love the ease and quickness!
Thank you guys, I tried the smart unlock and it is working pretty well in good light. The only thing I dont like about it is that you have to swipe on the screen after your face has been recognized to unlock the phone, where is with touchid you immediately get into the home screen without need to swipe the screen.
Hello, good people.
I tried XXX roms and firmwares for Moto G5 Plus and I can't get back my imei. On my phone it shows "IMEI 0" , I never had problems with any phones before until now. I am really thinking to never buy again Motorola phone even though I love her. My phone is wearing a mark XT1684. Is there any possibility from you people to help me to step by step try to recover my IMEI number and mobile signal?
Please help, I'm believing in you.
