This version is currently in beta phase and so things might not work properly. Ensure you have a backup of all your data and proceed only if you are aware of the risk of data loss and unexpected behavior.
If you would like to help getting this stable soon then report any issues found in the support chan.

AXP.OS for the LG G4 does not include any firmware so you need to manually upgrade as described . Skipping this step might result in unexpected behavior and problems later on.
This step needs to be done only once.
AXP.OS for the LG G4 is a special release as it is one of the rare devices where we still support FDE because all tries to get FBE working (backporting FBE to the msm8992 kernel) failed.
So to get the most out your device we enforce the usage of F2FS which requires that you follow these simple steps first (AXP.OS won't even boot otherwise):
Note: The following process will WIPE all your user data, photos, everything. .. and no, there is no other option. So you better have a backup and you better have tested the restore of that backup actually works.
