So a few days back I bought an LG G4 through Sprint. It had an update available so I went ahead and applied said update. Problem is that it was ZVB and it installed antirollback so I can't downgrade. Only then did I realize that it's impossible to root Marshmallow ZVB on the piece of shit. Is there any way to make this thing fuck up so my warranty will cover it and they'll replace it with a non-updated phone? It would have to seem hardware related and like it wasn't my fault... I hate no being able to root my shit. I had a G4 on nTelos and it started screen tearing before... is there a way to prompt that behavior on this one or was that just an unlucky draw?

Wait... Is it just the sprint version or does it also count for the international one?

Sell it on Swappa for $200.
Buy one on Swappa for $160.

Pretty sure it's only the Sprint variant.

Oh thank god.

just flash it with some non-retarded shit .why the fuck would anyone actually want an unrootable phone if anything they should sell them permarooted .

The used phones on Swappa are probably already updated as well, my friend. I may have to just live with it and hope there's eventually a root for ZVB.

I can't flash it with anything. The bootloader is locked, and I can't roll back to a previous firmware.

Literally just return it to the sprint store and get a new one you fucking moron

Will they take it back for absolutely no reason, you dick for breath?
>>
>>56156348
Yes. I know because I did the exact same thing. If they ask just say the battery was defective. Now delete this piece of shit thread.
Retard.

Why does lg have such shit firmware
my gf got an LG G3
she got a new network provider
for some retarded reason if you switched the phone of and one again the built in antivirus would send a text to amercian costing 25p each time like wtf is this shit?
and trying to uninstall it was a nightmare like i actually had to contact macfee to get a code to disable their software and it still didnt work so i had rooted it then forced a compete uninstall
so basically if you dont know much about a phones you would be fucked and probs end up returning it fucking piece of shit.

You can unlock the bootloader on the official LG website

Idk, but I'd love to just buy a phone and not have to deal with this type of bullshit just to use it the way I want to.
