Saved precious pictures! Thank you SO MUCH! I had month's worth of pics on this phone when it died. Tried everything then threw it in a drawer. Today I tried the blow drier method for 10 minutes and it didn't work. Then I tried your hot iron directly on the chipset thingy. OMG! the phone came alive! I managed to get all my pictures off, including the last few pictures of my very dear friend right before we found out she had terminal cancer. These pictures were the last I have where she had her beautiful hair. Can't say Thank You enough!!!
found myself doing this nonsense in despair to get a backup.Used highest setting on the iron and ironed my G4 chip for 2 minutes with a bit of pressure.
Started it up and--believe it or not--- my phone started up. Bummer I had forgotten to insert a memory card so I had to restart my phone again. That however did not happen, it was back to creating boot loops....
Ok, what worked once may work twice. This time I ironed my LG G4 for 3 minutes at the highest setting. Then I inserted the battery, a sim and a memory card and tried to start it up.
Yep, she came alive and I managed to back up to the memory card. Started the phone several times now and it still works, second day.
Certainly learned something, thanks.
OMG i am still shocked to see my phone in working state.
You come like a saviour in our life..thanks a ton bro
You are awesome. I had tried everything like putting it in the freezer, pressing the start button while pressing something else. Nothing worked and I was so upset because I had not backed up any of my many, many pictures. I had even thrown the phone in the trash can. Then I decided to try this, and retrieved it from the trash. Thank you, very much. THIS WORKS, PEOPLE TRY IT!
Oh my gosh! I did exactly what this video showed you to do and praise the heavens- my LG G4 is resurrected!! Oh the joys of TH-cam! 😍😱
OMG thank you sooo sooo much! I can't believe this worked, at first I got it to turn on then it would restart again after I did this but I started updating the phone and apps and played non stop movies for 3 hours and after all of that I have no problems. This phone I have is special, it was my mothers right before she passed away and it was always caught on a loop I couldn't get it off of the LG logo screen. I looked up a video today after years and your video was the one! I am in tears TY sooo much again! :)
I can't believe this worked, had been fannying around for hours turning phone on and off etc The factory reset option hadn't worked. Did this in 10 minutes and phone has booted up.
Now to back it up properly.
Thank you!!
Just tried it, at least the phone restarted, let's see, how long the fix lasts - thank you so much for the video! The iron makes more sens to me than a hair dryer. Update: even after almost one week it still works without further restarts!! Very cool😎
Jürgen Husch I have this problem also are you try it and get good results???
What is the temperature that ironing?
Jürgen Husch
@@ahmedalisemit6060 actually for me it worked, the phone works since two days and before it restarted several times a day. Temperature was middle, the two points setting on the iron. And 5min and check that it is well on the two chips as shown in the video. Does that help?
Jürgen Husch thank you for answer and actually i did it and there is no LG logo 🤷🏼 can you help more please?
@@ahmedalisemit6060 🤔 so the phone does not start even after the "treatment"? Actually, seems there must be a different problem then.
Does it do anything at all?
I have tried the hair dryer and the fridge. Thay all failed. This is awesome! My college teen daughter was so delighted to have all her data backup before getting a replacement from T-Mobile. Thank you!
My son's LG G4 was completely dead. I did this but used a cheap heat gun instead of an iron. Now the phone works perfectly! Thanks!
Just tried this technique but instead of using an iron, I used my wife's hair straightener. I cranked the hair straightener to 177 celsius and waited a bit to bring up the temperature. Then I took the phone apart as shown in the video and placed the cpu chip directly onto the hot plate of the hair straightener while applying pressure using a small stick for 8 minutes. After all that was done, I put the phone back together and guess what???? IT ACTUALLY WORKED!! The phone booted up successfully and is now back to normal and has been for the last 3 hrs. I have transferred all of her important data from the phone and hoping it will continue to work.
One thing that is missing from this video is the information regarding the iron temperature. We learn the duration, but we're lacking info on the irons temp. Alloys commonly used for electrical soldering are 60/40 Sn-Pb, which melts at 188 °C (370 °F), and 63/37 Sn-Pb used principally in electrical/electronic work. 63/37 is a eutectic alloy of these metals, which: has the lowest melting point (183 °C or 361 °F) of all the tin-lead alloys. Now our iron in our home has a minimum temperature of 104.444 °C (220°F). So what I did was get the iron as close as I could to 188 °C (370 °F) and the backed it off a little and let it rest on the chip for 5 minutes.
Some irons are smart that have safety features built in like mine that if it's idle or hasn't moved for 60 seconds it will auto-shutoff the iron. I had to slightly pick mine up and re-rest it back on the chip about 5 times. I definitely got 5 minutes of heat on it and let it cool for about another 5 minutes before working with it again. Remember this is a temporary fix to a much larger issue with the LG G4 phones. LG admits G4 bootloop problem is a hardware fault and it totally has to do with it's cheap solder they used in manufacturing process for these chips.
So I just tried this on my Wife's phone as it was doing the whole boot loop. We both have LG G4s but mine acted up 3 days after buying ours. Since hers is out of Warranty I figured it was either this or a new device. I followed all the steps above and I've got my Wife's phone up and running like a champ again. I currently have it doing a backup.
+Nathan Hammack You are Pro.
Nope, I just do my research before I almost break stuff. This way I keep the Mrs. happy. :)
If I am not mistaken most cellphones use lead free solder now. Which melts around 220C I think but I very well could be wrong. But you got it to work so nice work!
Long story short... it only lasted for so long... The boot loop came back and we reviewed this article: disq.us/p/1h8y6sr which we sent back to LG and they took care of her G4 - That's not to say that LG will do this for everyone, but contacting them should be the first thing to try. There also is a petition for the LG G4: bit.ly/1Ue35LS
Thank you. It worked and I was able to back up the entire phone. I had my iron right 354 °F (use an infrared thermometer to get the reading) for 5 minutes.
Okay, This fix had my phone working for 20 hours, now I applied thin aluminium peace and some toothpaste on top of the chip. And got it working again. I will keep you updated for how long this fix will last.
Is it still working ?
update?:)
???
It would be nice if you would tell us if it is still working?!
Umm no it did not :(. Fix works for two days and then it goes to bootloop again. I dont think the issue is only with processor chip overheating.
Flippin brilliant! I had serious doubts about taking an iron to my motherboard but it worked! Time enough now to back this thing up and see how long it'll last. I did as someone else suggested and lined the chip with aluminum. Promise to update on that. Thank you Learn EVThing, this video was a lifesaver and I like how you did it (simple, visual and aurally appealing).
Update? Still working??
Hello! Just came here to mention that I had the same problem with my G4, but I followed your instructions and now it is working with no issues. Let´s hope that it doesn´t happen again... Thanks for your help!
Hey gang,
I just had this problem and while I spent 20 minutes trying to find a micro screwdriver, my phone was constantly trying to boot itself and super over heated... then it started working again! So over heating the phone also creates the same effect as above.
Kyle James-Patrick is it still working
Negative. Died a fool's death.
Would not recommend the G4 to anyone.
Rainer L Yes, but when LG openly admits to this issue, and I have 4 seperate G4s in my hand that are all broken, I think this issue is MOST prominant in the G4.
Thanks man you're the best my phone bootlooped last night and I didn't have a hair dryer. Tried to borrow from neighbors but to no avail. Then saw this video using iron and it worked. You're a genius I tell you. Keep up the good work man. God bless
Actually just tried this 5 minutes ago...took about 16 minutes. It actually worked! Got the pictures and data I needed...
Hello, thank you! got my LG g4 working again. Be careful with the iron, you need to position it correctly or you might damage your motherboard. I got it working today so 12 hours running so far. I will keep you guys updated for how long this fix will last.
No unfortunetly it runs for few days and then you have to do it again.
still working??
@@harripesonen1533 why??
Thank you very much for this video. I fixed my phone right now and its working awesomely with a lil tin foil at the back it puts pressure of the chip and i am glad that i took the risk. I will be getting the LG V30+ soon because LG is the best after all. Thank you once again. All the way from South Africa
THIS WORKED!!! Only temporarily ....but long enough for me to retrieve all my data....thanks
I never liked ironing until now. Great solution, thank you!
I didn't hope it would work, but it did ! I used a hair dryer until it the security turned it off (less than 2 minutes). I made a first try without the 11 screws but the screen did not respond. After screwing all back again, everything was ok. Thank you.
I've tried all other methods, and this is the only one that worked for me! It's been on for about an hour, just enough time to get important stuff off!!! It didn't work after the first time, so had to re-iron. :) I let it sit a little longer - 8 min. Learn EVThing you saved me a headache!
my lgg4 motherboard not working doing this iron mathod
Muhammad Arsalan, it did for me for about 3 days now it's dead again.
Holy crap! this actually worked! I tried the freezer and hair dryer method before attempting this. The freezer method managed to get my G4 to boot but died after 5 minutes. The hair dryer method worked for 10 seconds. So far with this method, my phone has been running normally for the past 10 minutes. We'll see how long this lasts.
UPDATE: Phone died again after 7 hours of working normally. I'm just happy that I managed to back up all of my files
I am shocked to say that this worked for me as well...for how long?? But at least long enough to grab the photos and screen shot my apps. Thanks for the tip!
The fix last 10 days...I made it again today and again too it works. How long? That's the question.
The picture I took yesterday were lost...
Excellent ...method ...worked perfectly...my phone is back to normal and no booting....kudos to you.
This worked for me. I attempted it twice. The first time only lasting for a couple hours before bootloop again but the second time has made it 24hrs+ now and I've been using the hell out of it and recharging it and it has yet to get hot or loop the boot. I feel like if it does do it again I can just repeat this process until the G6 is out. Also when I got it back on the second time I immediately imported pics and freed up hard drive space and it didn't bootloop so that's good maybe that helped. Have had this G4 H815 since June 2015 bootloop hit this past month Feb 2017 morning after Super Bowl. Previously had a G2 that lasted until G4 was out. Bring on the G6. Cheers
Jordan Parris G6 looks amazing lets hope it doesn't have the bootloop problem again
+jay mcmillan I hope so.
Learn EVThing Lg g4 was so good until it bootlooped the otherday. Fucking ridiculous out of all the stuff to go wrong it was a massive hardware fault. Could have been battery or camera problems but no had to be something pretty much unfixable.
Clear one thing up I have the H810. So the second time using this method approached 96 hours before I had to do it again but it worked again and that was a few hours ago. Hope G6 releases soon. Read April 7 but not confirmed.
I won’t buy lg anymore I’m looking forward to Samsung
Yeah this is the best close up video yet to fix this problem... I my opinion LG should reimburse everyone that bought this phone... After my LG G6 phone that I have now, I never buy another LG phone again... They seriously screwed the pooche... I had to buy another phone out on the road as a truck driver, no choice...
Hey thanks tried the hair dryer method but no go so ironed out the problem using your method...iron on high with no steam for 5 minutes....cheers for that
Thanks so much, it works on my G4 too.
I had apply the iron about 10 min with a temperature for more or less around 100°c on the chip.
The temperature was measured with a laser thermometer. The iron was set at mid range.
Meu amigo olha parabens vc descobriu como fazer. No meu levei em um monte de assistencias, todas condenaram. Fiz o que vc falou e deu super certo. Recomendo.
Tenho um guardado a muito tempo por causa do bootloop, vc fez exatamente igual ao vídeo? Ou deixou o ferro mais tempo ?
My phone's V10 had bootloop dead for 3 weeks. Now i fixed it already. I followed all of your steps. Thank u for this Video.
Thu 9 - Nov - 2017.
what time work by this method?
It worked! Was sceptical as all hell at first but it was this or a new phone. Turned the heat to medium and did 4 mins. Great hack. You da man!
this totally worked for me, enough for me to get my phone running and download my photos. thank you!!
+lefermiergq you're welcome.
is your phone still working
Still working?
chaoazul it worked for a couple days then i got it replaced by warranty.
i have lgg4 and it is stuck on bootloop.. i tried the hair drier many times but it didn't work and deiced to buy another phone .. finally i found this amazing idea and it is work very good .. thank you bro for your help to get back my phone.
Is it still working?
Thank you! I also tried the blow-dryer and the freezer with no success. This method was a first time go. It's been working for a couple of hours now.
Thanks for the video, did the iron thing for 5+5 mins and successfully fixed my phone today. Also applied thermal paste on the chips too. I'll see how long it last.
What is the result bro?
Thanks for sharing you experience and solution; however, I was surprised that you placed a hot iron on the floor [it looked like a linoleum floor]. I still use my G4, but I canceled my service with AT&T (my last bill is due this month); however, I was very upset that in late 2017 my G4 experienced the infamous "Boot Loop" - almost 2 years to the date of purchase and new service with AT&T. AT&T washed their hands with any "customer support" - I didn't join the class action lawsuit because LG stepped up and offered to repair the phone for free - the only cost to me was to ship the device to them. Now nearly three-(3) years later either my battery is dying, a worsened "boot loop" or the internal circuitry is being tampered with by "pick your poison" - The industrial/political push is the new G5 bandwidth frequencies! I am not going to purchase another "handheld computer" for $500.00 to $1000.00 besides AT&T service has gotten much worse.
Perfect IDEA THANKS! MY OLD LG 4 - start WORKING LIKE A NEW ! AND I’M use COPER DESOLDERING VIRE for cooler , WORKING and no pasta no GLU. Big difference, NO HEET from CPU! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Can you teach us how you did it? Is it a permanent fix?
tq for the tutorial.. my g4 look fine now n its already 7 hour past. i put a pcs of paper to cover the mobo n put the iron to it . 1st try just for 1 minutes n its still on bootloop mood. 2nd try for 5 minutes n its magic.. its working. hoping when i wake up tomorow morning my g4 still alive hahha..
Just tried this iron solution and works perfectly, my phone is alive again! thanks a lot
what iron solution ????
It worked. At first was quite skeptic about it but gave it a try... Unfortunately at home I have not any Iron, so tried first with my hairdrier without solution. I then stole my mom's one, and set it to medium temperature, 5 minutes, closed the phone and tried, again no solution.
Ok then, last try, maximum power to the iron, 5 minutes, cooling time (maybe 10 minutes?) and closed up, now thge phone works...
Only things, the digitizer now acts weird, but it could be to my fault with the ribbon.
Thanks for the amazing solution, could retrieve my wife's photos and videos.
Hola amigo, gracias por publicar este video. Despues de seguir tus pasos mi LG G4 volvió a funcionar nuevamente. Saludos
After one year seating in a drawer finally start work, and yea put it 5 min under 190 C its gonna bend the motherboard (that happened to me) Thanks man you are the BEst, im gonna use my favorite phone again thanks....
well it worked for me tho i had to use my hotplate instead, i thought to myself stage 1 should have almost the same heat exposure like an Clothing Iron, so i layed baking paper on the hotplate, the handy chip on top and fixed it with a frying pan like 4-5 minutes and it works the same. A well deserved like from me, really helpful trick ^w^
Yo bro your iron looks mad crusty lol what the iron did was resolder the joints to the PCB clever trick.
Tried this & worked like a charm, did put a hotspot onto the screen where the CPU is as I added a small heat sink on top of the CPU but nice work & thanks for the video.
Very Nice video. For those who does not the temperature, you can go buy an infrared thermometer. Then you can know the temperature of the bottom of the iron
woohoo it worked for me. had been trying all different ways to repair my g4. finally had it running. thanks mate.
It worked for me 100%
Thanks for resurrecting my old friend....Awesome
Worked really well, had to iron on the viscose setting for about 10 mins after trying twice for 5 mins and not working
Thank you to Learn EVThing for this video!
This worked for me... Kind of. If initially it doesn't work for you, I offer some advice as to what I did, which let me back up my crucial data. By the way, Verizon replaced my phone for free even though it is over a year old. Apparently, there was a class action lawsuit brought against LG, and now they are replacing everyone's busted phone, and supposedly if you send it to LG, they will recover your data if you ask. I don't know, because it takes 2-3 weeks with them, where Verizon was overnight.
My first go, I didn't have enough heat. My iron has an auto off, and it turned itself off. I cranked it to high heat, and let it go for about 2 minutes. Afterwards, I applied gentle pressure in a slight circular motion (Not sure if that helped). The phone got past the LG boot screen to the Verizon boot screen, then froze. I was able to boot into safe mode (power and volume down until the boot menu shows up.) It helps to try clearing the cache first.
Ultimately, I was able to boot into the phone in normal mode. I achieved this by wrapping the phone in paper towels and freezing it. It heated up quickly, and I was only able to be logged in for about 30 seconds until it locked up again. My next attempt, I put it in the freezer again, and when I took it out, I kept it sandwiched between two frozen cold packs. I would work on backing up data for 30 second intervals, leaving the bottom of the phone on one cold pack, then placing the other cold pack over the screen for 30 seconds on and off.
Thank you man! it helped, so far is working now!!! Initially I was worried WHAT??? IRON??? NO WAY!!! then I read the feed backs and most of them said it worked, So I gave a try.. If it happens again, I WILL FIND LAVA AND DIP IT INSIDE, so it permanently soldered!!! :))))
This worked ! Thanks. Did not have an IR thermometer. But I cranked by small iron to the max and let is sit there for 5 min. Like Nathan, my wife will be happy too that her photos are back. FYI... the hair dryer thing did not work.
Thank you it worked again I used a heat gun for 1:30 minute, now it's working great.
Hi, I used this method on a work pal's phone... IT WORKS! Thanks, very good explanation on the video. Cheers from Argentina.
Is it still working?
It worked for me. It is only for do a data recovery. The phone may be stuck again later.
On NRG che maestro soy argentino y tengo el mismo problema y no me animo mucho a hacer este método, pero si te funciono joya entonces... Luego de quitar la plancha lo dejaste que se enfríe o presionaste el chipset? Tengo uno reacondicionado y me está sacando de quicio. Te agradecería si me explicas. Si es que dispones de tiempo. Gracias y disculpa la molestia.
On NRG did it get stuck again
Tried it and got my data transferred. Thanks for the video.
It worked, True Talk!!!
Thanks for the assistance.
Daymmm what just happened? My phone is fix! Thanks alot couuuz!
If it gets broken soon, which it probably will, then the easiest way to fix it is to just let it sir in the logi screen and charge it. It will get hot enough that it powers on by itself :)
@@IStoleYourSandwich will it last forever like hope, faith and hope?
Sos el mejor!!! Me funciono perfecto! Probe con el secador de pelo 3 veces pero nada y con la plancha lo deje 6 min y me funciono! Te daria un abrazo jaja
Very smart idea! How about 10 minutes instead of 5 minutes? Wouldn't that work better? Anyone try to heat it longer and see if it's more permanent fix? Another idea is after the fix, don't just re-assemble it, after heating it with iron, but fold an aluminum foil into 1 cm square (slightly thcker than credit card) and stick it between the metal frame and the center dhip. That way, it will continue to apply pressure to the chip, helping to prolong the fix.
Jun Whang Smart, really smart
i'm curious too if that will work
i did it for a full hour and no luck, i need to do it every day for 5 mins
5 mins its enough
Yes I agree, five minutes is plenty. Hopefully iron being used will stay near 200 degree Celsius range, as too high a temperature will destroy bga chips. I saw videos of re flowing bga chips at 350 deg Celsius, but that's with a heat gun and only for 30 seconds.
Hola a todos: A mí me ha funcionado con 20 minutos sobre la plancha de planchar la ropa. Gracias por el vídeo. Saludos a todos los seguidores.
At what temp do you set the Iron? Thx.
Thanks x1000,000.000 my phone is working again..... to those who feel not too sure about this I made it. It Work!
Did you lose any of your data??
Great video dude excellent job, I went with the hairdryer first and I was able to extract all my information and phone is charging right now I’ll see how long it lasts but excellent job thanks, by the way 1500 W hairdryer 1/4 inch away from the chip for 10 minutes
Fixed mine with this method. Only had a knife, my hand and an iron, tks
Alright, phone died this morning, same boot loop! searched and searched forums and nothing concrete solution other than factory reset which didn't help. Since at work, don't have iron so what I did is "baked" board into oven for 5 mins at 300 degrees. I covered ALL plastics using foil so they don't melt! sure enough it worked!!!
sớm muộn nó lại chết thôi , giỏi lắm xài được vài tuần nữa à .. ^^
Mình thử rồi mình biết.
Good one... but remember LG is replacing the motherboard if bootlooped even after warranty.
I tried freezing and it worked for me for 24 hours then I got my warranty claimed :D
Worked for me. Going on 2 hours now. All is backed up just in case. Fingers crossed.
Thanks man! Got time to safe all my important stuff before mobile went off
Damn! It worked! Didn't think it would but I was desperate to recover data, and yet it worked!
תודה רבה! עזרת לי המון!!!!
!!!!Thank you! You helped me a lot
BRAVO 🙌👍👏
no way, it worked on my g4! lol
used a hairdryer and my g4 wakes up!
thank you so much!!
theflashgixxer is it still working?
Majin Gotenks nope, lasted only a fra days. The great new is that it's actually dead lol
Thanks for sharing this video 🙏🙏
Your video help me to repair my phone.
On the picture it's a PHILIPS iron, do not try to use an LG, important factor! :D
That's funny, you said your phone had no issues.
Hey, thanks so much for this method!! Fixed my phone and it works perfectly now!
Tom Cibulskis is it still working?
Thank u it's done success boot will be done they go to home screen but after mobile will be restart
Thanks dude.... It worked well... but did the iron for 2 mins.... 5 is too long I guess
but how
J'ai suivi la procédure.... et ça marche (depuis 15mn; j'ai à mi-chemin entre laine et coton, pendant 7mn). Merci!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Worked for me too!
Great background music and editing!
Thanks for the great video, Cheers!
is it still working??
Still working?
Juan Alfaro well , i dont know if my iron doesnt get hot enough but, i need to do this every day, like i did it this morning like at 11.30 am and im waiting know for it to turn off haha😂😂😂 like almost every 22 hours, i dont even have the screws screwed in..
It worked! so greatful for the tip. Congratulations for sharing the video.
Well, this absolutely works. My sisters G4 died on her May of 2016, wanted to get the photos from it and i wasn't having luck with any other method. 2200 Photos/videos recovered. Took almost an hour to move them all but it stayed up long enough.
Thanks man it actually worked, nevermind it only worked temporarily.
this also works for my v10 and it will only fix for like an hour lol , this is the first and last time i buy an lg device! i have high hopes for this phone then it suddenly bootloop again
You are the best!!! Bless you!!!
Hey it worked for me 100%thanks
I was totally in shocked when I saw my phone turn on and actually work, can someone do an explain video to this? 😱 thank you a lot
It is just re-soldering the phone together....
The phone unsolders itself because of its overheating ^^
Thank you bro' :O It Works! :) God Bless on You! :)
Martin Virág does it still work?
Repair worked for 4 hours. Long enough to move contacts to SIM card. Repair also damaged any reception for broadband but WIFI still worked.
Thank you so much for this video!! it worked miraculously!! 😄
b ơi VN phải k . cho m hỏi m làm như bạn hướng dẫn. Rồi nó bị chuyển từ treo logo sang khởi động đi khởi động lại liên tục phải làm sao
I have never seen anyone else put a magnet on their screwdriver. I have been doing that since neodymium magnets started becoming super accessible. Before that I just kept a hdd magnet in my tool box and magnetized screwdrivers the 'old fashioned' way.
The process worked great. Thanks
It worked, hoping it'll be more permanent that it has seemed for others as I can't afford to replace my phone!
how llong do you put the iron on it?
Thank You!!! my phone back to live.
Works great
