LG G4 so far...



Well I've had my g4 for a little over a week. I thought I would post my experience with the G4. I rooted it the other day after a few failed attempts at flashing using the low effort root. That didn't work for me. I had to flash a stock image using the LG tool. I probably missed a step when trying the low effort root. I kept getting some sort of security error in a boot loop. But then I installed TWRP and via TWRP rooted the phone. This seemed to be the easier method for me. Either way it is rooted now, so I can begin using Adaway again. I also uninstalled T-Mobile's My Account. Initially, I tried Titanium Backup (TB) and couldn't uninstall or back it up. Then after checking my backup folder I discovered that it actually was backed up, but for some reason TB said it wasn't. I then went to the debloater tool and disabled it. Debloater said my phone does not support block mode. I then backed up My Account via TB again, with TB informing me it was not backed up. I then just uninstalled it. After looking at all the permissions this thing has, I just don't want someone having that kind of unfettered access to my phone.

Right now battery life is pretty good, But just like new car smell, I know it won't last. Love the camera, better low light performance than my Galaxy S Blaze.
