I just saw an LG G4 (VS986) on ebay. I live in India. The carrier is verizon, the VS986 is an US model. It is written that hotspot won't work. Also there is mentioned that verizon logo will come up during booting. My queries are:
1) Why hotspot won't work? Will I be unable to access WiFi also?
2) Why will verizon logo come up during booting? Is it common or the phone is rooted?
3) Will I also face problems regarding upgrading the phone to marshmallow?
That's all... I know these are too many questions but please help....

Hi guys,
so I have a HTC one M8 verizon but want to use it with another company. Once I put the sim card on I'm able to use wifi and make and recieve phone calls but not to use the internet. It's says there's no connection. I bought it second hand and it supposed to be unlocked.
It has android 5.0.1. so it's not easy to S-off.
Please help

What carrier? Did you change the APN to your carriers? If not, that's your problem.

Yeah already try that. I live in Chile so I have a foreing carrier.
I think it has something to do with being a verizon phone in a different country.
There still no way to root my phone with android 5.0.1 ?

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I think I may have to get more information ... H185 is one of the international models. Did you buy the device through AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, or Verizon? If so, which one?
If bought outright somewhere else, and you are indeed H185, no further info is needed, and you can proceed to the following thread:
> LG G4 > G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > LG G4 ≡The P2P Ask For Help thread≡
Please note, you will need to register for an XDA account before you can post there.
But if you have one of the USA models, can I get your carrier name and your G4 model number before I can help further? If Sprint or Verizon (I forget which one), knowing them you may have an unlockable bootloader.
Hope this helps.
Hello everybody, even tho i am not new to the forum itself i couldn't remember mu username/password. I will startby mentioning thta recently u posted as a guest a question regarding my lg stylo.

Hello everyone, I'm making this thread because Im having some trouble updating my phone to the latest version of Andriod.
I have an LG G3 D850 factory unlocked. This means it's an at&t phone, so I'd need an at&t sim to update it. The problem is, I dont live in the US, Im from southamerica, Uruguay specifically.
As I dont have the sim or anything, my phone is stuck in Android 4.4.2.
My question is, is there any way for me to update my phone? What happens if I download and install the D855 version for this phone (the international version) will it block my networks?
Thanks for reading!

So I made a post yesterday explaining my problem about having locked APN settings on my unlocked Sprint LG G5. Someone there pointed out I need an MSL code. How do I go about getting one? Do I have to deal with the headache we call sprint again?... also once I obtain the MSL code where do I input it? I have some idea where it needs to go but I'm not 100% sure...
like I said it's an LG G5, model number is LGLS992 (sprint phone thats GSM unlocked) and it's running 6.0.1.
Thanks in advance everyone and let me know if you need anymore info!

Hi Hockeywaves
Thank you for using XDA Assist
According to some fellow XDA users (threads listed below), you should call Sprint and they will inform you.
