I haven't heard of this issue affecting H811 or H815 models (the more popular models). They pulled the batch from the shelves and didn't sell any additional handsets until a fixed batch came in. I can't remember which it is (I'm British). Personally, I have only heard of this issue affecting one batch of handsets sold by a US carrier. You mention legal recourse in your post as well - something again I will come to in time. The PSA in your post shouldn't be about the potential for failure (hint: extremely small likelihood), the PSA should be regarding data backups. Right, I was only going to respond to individual comments here but I think I ought to try and be the voice of reason amongst the panic you've obviously caused with this post. Also, called LG and they were not helpful, as this particular phone is not in a boot loop. However, there is drop damage to two of the corners on the device. This one was manufactured in November, so it may not be affected. Interesting fact though: If you do three warranty returns with in 90 days, T-Mobile MUST offer you a new phone. There is no guarantee that this phone will be v1.1. The T-mobile rep spent sometime on the phone with customer care, and they are sending out another phone.

Update 4: Went to the T-mobile store, where they were unable to exchange/upgrade my phone. Pretty sure I got lucky by having a tech who had experienced the boot loop issue on her G4. Mentioned some minor funky behavior of the new phone, and they are sending me to the store for an exchange/upgrade to 1.1.

Was initially turned down for an upgrade to v1.1. Called the T-mobile store, where I had just returned my loaner phone. Update 2: T-mobile sending out replacement Tuesday, and 'gave' me a loner.

Update: Cannot access recovery or download mode. Don't think it can't happen to you, unless you have a newer hardware revision.Įdit 2: I am uploading a video of the boot loop.Įdit 4: /u/KidFenrik has provided a link to some official information from sprintĮdit 5: Sign the petition to get this fixed here! (I didn't make this petition, but thank you to the person that did!): Įdit 7: Here is a temporary solution that will allow you to turn on the phone and retrieve your data: My hardware Revision is v1.0, and so was my roommate's.Įdit: I was most definitely wrong in initially stating that your phone WILL die however, my warning still stands. This issue has affected all major US carriers (T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T, Verizon). Let me be clear: if you purchased an LG G4 before September/October, IT MAY DIE ON YOU. Make sure you have nightly backups running of all critical data. Rather than taking preventative action and announcing the problem so that customers have time to back up their data, they take the passive role and swap out devices whenever one dies. Thousands of phones are potentially bound to fail. It is clear that LG has a procedure for handling this very issue, yet they are failing to warn their customers about the problem. It happened to my roommate about a month ago, and it hit me yesterday as my phone lay idle on my desk.
