LG Q1 fiscal results: profit is good, but mobile division still lagging

27 April 2017
Sales went up 10% compared with the previous quarter, mostly thanks to the low to mid-end devices.

    LG's achilles heel was when bootloop issues starts to appear on G4 series, but before that I never had a problem with my LG's Optimus G Pro 2.

      TotoyBato, 27 Apr 2017After owning g4 and lg g flex 2 died due to bootloop. Never... moreYou can easily fix a bootloop, just try this:
      1- go to xda and look for an application for Windows called LG flash tool 2014, installl it as well as your LG drivers for windows
      2- there is a website that you can look on google maybe called LGrom..., you enter your IMEI number and it gives you the LG rom you want, download it to flash it
      3- connect the phone through USB cable and long press on volume + button till "download mode appears and then follow instructions you'll find on xda website
      I had at least 4 times bootloop on my lg g2 mini maybe because I root it and use some risky apps and always could fix it by Flashing Stock KDZ rom.

        I think LG boot looping will continue with the G6 so users must be alarmed on that

          AnonD-471230, 27 Apr 2017Not surprising when they pump out rubbish like the G5 &... moreah. The good ol' "My-old-phone-is-better-than-the-latest-flagship" mentality. If you think your old af G4 has a better camera than the newer G6, then you don't know shi* about cameras or smartphones.

            LOL even SONY sold a lot more .. and they suck at marketing and sales .... this report just proves how much ugly G5 and V20 are . remove dual camera and phones will sell more ... I myself wouldn't buy G5 , V20 or G6 even at quarter of the price because it's simply to f***ing ugly .

              Not surprising when they pump out rubbish like the G5 & G6.

              I have a venerable G4, that's never missed a beat and has a better camera than what they're putting on their newest phones. Why would anyone want to change to another G-series phone when they're inferior to their predecessors?

                    Since G6 has non-removable battery, glass back and no IR blaster, I hope G6 will be a big flop and profit loss, in hope that they will learn their lessons and will bring back the removable battery for LG V30 (and fix the bootloop and shattergate (fragile camera glass) once and for all).

                        I was a huge fan of Lg til my g4 bootlooped their service centres are so adamant about attending to my problem under warranty!!Its not funny, i blew a lot on this..A true company after acknowledging the issues they should have recalled all devices.They need to take clues from samsung if they want success in this mobile division

                          Just like Samsung, their mobile division is not doing good. But their other businesses are.

                            What to expect from company that cuts its best flagship from some markets and next one from top hardware you would expect it to have like audio capabilities, processor, big sensor area.
