Hahaha. I tend to agree but there are some things that even some of us that's had Android for years can learn.
Anyways the thread is for everyone in general, not every person on xda is as familiar or know their way around the OS as others.
There's nothing wrong with that as we all started somewhere.

Take a look, can't be long now until full Custom ROMs can be built

What a great news !
I thought that might tickle some of the Devs here
All week since I got my new G I was hovering on that page looking for news, and just 3 hours ago the new post was made
Great news!!
I have a tree made for the Titan on my github. You'll need the relevant picks on the cm gerrit for it to build.
Before everyone goes compile crazy, let's actually boot the phone before 30 threads with boot looping "progress" and little advancement are created. I'm not planning on buying this device, only to help as much as I can bring it up. There are talented dev's who will surely take it up later on.

I'm about to go hard on this device, if anyone wants to gimme a hand to get CRdroid or any CAF(hopefully) ROMs on this device that would be awesome. Shoot me a PM...I've never done anything like this before but I've been reading up on it and I'm very computer savvy. More heads are better than one, though!
I just really enjoy this device...
nothing to share yet so I moved it to the general section for now.
if you get something worth sharing just PM me and I will move it to the correct section
thanks for the cooperation,

Can someone tell me how to generate a .config file that works?

use make deconfig or make config command :fingers-crossed:
Finally some good news, i really hope for some good ROMs!
I hope so too, but asking on the CyanogenMod group in Google+ kind of dashed my hopes of seeing something soon. Guess no dev has stepped up develop a ROM for G 2014 Users yet, and i'm no good as a dev myself :-/

Tips for the G4

I received the LG G4 USA edition late last week as part of their influencer program. Here are some tips I have recorded for those new to the G4. Many of these features are available in the G3. I am getting accessories already and will post them in the appropriate threads.

Vote for your best phone LG G4 vs Honor 7 [Final]

It's the final, LG G4 vs Honor 7. To vote for your phone you just need to click couple times on the picture of the LG G4, it's tight. French website...

Clicked on the Honor, of course.
And now? Do I get anything to compensate for my wasted 20 seconds?
With my G4 I've just wasted 9 seconds to click, your phone is slow, get a G4, or make a factory reset.

He posted it in general, maybe XDA needs to make a "Off topic" or "Horrible" section.

AT&T/LG to release KDZ & TOT

Hi all,
I'm contacting AT&T and LG Mobile to force them to release the KDZ and TOT for our LG G5.
I had thought about starting a petition for it, what do you guys think about it?
Anyone had luck with getting some answeres that might end up with AT&T releasing these files?
BTW, I used to own a Motorola Milestone in the past, and some forum member succeeded on cracking Motorola's bootloader, maybe he will help us here as well (I had PM him about this topic, let's hope he will give it a shot).
Thanks,
Mor

16.4.17 - petition link had been added : https://www.change.org/p/lg-electro...utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink
Please, help us spread the word, it's a petition for all LG G5 devices, not only AT&T's one.
Meanwhile, I'm trying my luck reaching out for more assistance within AT&T and LG focal points.
I will sign the petition if you make one
I contacted them about this and they said that LG has the firmware, the I contacted lg and they said ATT has it, so i don'tknow
Kinda good news.
Yesterday I spoke with "oneclickroot" support team and tried figuring out if they will try to assist with rooting our LG G5.
The dev support APPROVED that they are working on it and it will take some time (crappy AT&T and Nougat's security).
About the petition, before I'm opening one, anyone else got some other ideas?
Thanks,
Mor

Yes, kidnap senior AT&T exec and hold them for ransom. I'll bet we'd have root within 24 hours.
Ha ha, seems like a plan.
But, I'll pass this offer and try other ideas
Well, I had draft the initial petition design.
I need your help dear community to sharpen it.

Last year, the LG G5 was released to the market.
Tons of new features, top notch SOC and the first flagship that offered HW modification.
All the community of developers and end users was happy and excited to create ROMs, kernels etc.
But, unfortunately, LG with cooperation with the massive Carriers agreed to lock the bootloader​.*
A year later, only two variets received the unlocked bootloader and all the rest left behind with a dying LG G5 community.
Our demend is that LG will unlock the bootloader and provide a TOT tool. Let us be free of the locked garden chain!
---
Let me know what do you think about it.
*UPDATE!*
Petition had been published - please spread the word.
there are a lot of LG G5 users, let's try to make a change - together we can make it.

Added a link there.

We might can get a bootloader unlock.. But we WONT get a TOT/KDZ directly from LG or AT&T. Remember all those files are only meant INTERNAL use only. LG doesn't publicly post these files.

You think we will get the bootloader unlock?
this phone is dead while another variants are celebrating their freedom
Signed.
My big mistake I bought an at&t variant. I was thinking its a USA based model and will be better than others. I was totally wrong. Never ever buy a phone on at&t contract. Worse choice ever I selected.
I am too thinking that It's a big mistake I bought an at&t variant.
Why AT&T not releasing Stock Roms etc. Whyy

I can't stand not having root anymore. I just listed my g5 up for sale, won't make this mistake twice. It's a shame, its not a half bad phone
hi! guys any update?

Why did you buy this phone?

It was a random guy selling it by the train station where I lived. I was skeptical at first as it could've been stolen but at the end of the day I had my head am filming so I just took video of the transaction. Got it $15 cheaper than what the store was offering it for with a discount with a month of activation. Sounded fair to me.
The screen is what sold me. So much space to it. A Google search later and I was sold on it from the processor, screen size, and internal space. For $35 it wasn't bad.
Tinkering with it these few months has been nice. I've never owned an LG device before this one, can't say I will after though. I'm a Samsung/ZTE kind of guy. Those companies love the developers.
LG released source code like 4-5 months after the phones release, which really sucked development wise. We were pretty much screwed from the getgo.
A year later and there's not much development done for it but we do have the people making the effort still and that is what development is about. The ability to keep trying g no matter how long it takes. Who knows? Maybe we will find something new, or maybe LG will give us a new platform update (mm or n).
In the meantime, I still carry 2 phones as this one is just to tinker on.
Why did you get this phone?

This thread is not designated for this discussion you're bringing. This is a discussion on why users have obtained this device, reason why exactly people got it. What they expected from it.
As for your comments, I did not take them personally, I took them personally on behalf of the developers and users of the forum. As a community we must work together, not tear down whatever foundation is existent.
As for your participation, from my knowledge you helped with the as330 model as best as anyone could, but the ms330 model - you copied a couple posts which did more harm than good. Multiple threads of the same information to newcomers confuses them.

I got this phone because I had upgraded from the LG L90 with T-Mobile JUMP. The lady told us it was a better phone in the store. It's really not that much different tho. I still like this phone though.
