    Vaibhav U, 07 Dec 2016G5 Users...Help Needed..Urgent Yesterday I updated to the September software rolled in Indi... more36 to 40 hours? I am barely getting 4 to 6 hours at most. Lucky you. Haha. Anyway, if you want to revert back to its previous or to its original software, try looking for stock rom posted on net and learn how to flash a system.

      G5 Users...Help Needed..Urgent

      Yesterday I updated to the September software rolled in India- V10K-IND-XX
      But it turned a disaster.

      Earlier I was getting about 36 to 40 hours of normal usage time (moderate surfing- no gaming- lots of calls- 5 months user). But after the update I am hardly getting 10 hours before battery dies out with same usage pattern...

      I am at my wits end as I am not used to this i-phone like shitty battery lifestyle...having to carry my charger wherever I go..always in fear of battery running out. I do have the 2nd battery standby, but the point is that I want to revert to my 1.5 to 2 days single charge usage pattern.
      Can anybody tell me, how to revert to my previous software version & delete this one?

        After the nougat upgrade, when I play a video I can still see on the background the on-screen buttons and the status bar. Anybody who's also experiencing it?

I think G6 will now address the aesthetics. Otherwise in terms of Hardware, LG is superb.

                  I have the dual sim LG G5 and it has a software update via OTA dated Sept but after I downloaded it and finished it, it said invalid software pack (something like that). Anyone who encountered the same?

                    I've got the G5 and also the HTC 10 and the HTC 10 is better for build quality and to a certain extent sound quality but otherwise the G5 murders the HTC 10 especially battery life for sure.
                    I like my HTC 10 but my daily driver of choice is the G5 it's a proper good piece of kit for sure and mines been absolutely reliable so far.

                    Being able to replace the battery is a massive bonus especially when all the other phones are solid now and you can't change the battery.

As V20 is the 1st device in Global Market to have Nogout 7.0 base android software. so LG will try to first launch V20 and then provide the 7.0 Nogout Update for LG G5 for india. So wait, till V20 becomes available. may be 25 December is the date on which LG will Push Update for LG G5 or may be in Janruary.

                                      This smartphone is awesome!

                                      The software is great without any problems.
                                      The camera is beautiful - especially the manual mode ;)
                                      Performance is invincible.

                                      I believe it's the Value for money for 2016, because it costs over 100€ less than Sasmung S7 and yet is equally powered...

                                      I have the H850 edition in gunmetal color.

                                      PS. Many say that it is ugly bla bla... Nonsense...
