Died after 3 months. Same problem others have had with boot loop.
Woe to those who would buy this. The SoC (CPU), it seems, comes unglued (desoldered) from the board, which causes the phone to lockup. I got a $200 brick after 3-4 months. I am going to see what LG will do now, that I finally got my pics off of it.
IF you own this POS, backup your junk!!
Here is the deal, you can try if you want: Put the G4 into your coldest freezer, in a zip-lock bag, without battery and back cover. Put the battery and back cover in the fridge (optional). After 1 hour it should be chilled to 10 below zero. Mine would boot then, if I popped the cold battery in it. I never put the back cover on. My G4 ran about 90 seconds to 2 minutes this way. Then it would crash and bootloop. Just refreeze and repeat. The point was to connect to my laptop to copy the files (pictures) on it. If I did NOTHING and did not touch the screen while copying, it sometimes continued working for 5-10 minutes!
I have heard of people disassembling the G4 and "reflowing" the solder, but this is much more advanced. The freezer trick still works to turn it on, but only for 90 seconds at most now. Worth trying if you never backed up your pics.
