LG G4: Installing SuperSU through TWRP renders device unbootable

FOR LG-H815, bought in Germany.

a) Went through the effort and unlocked the bootloader through LG's official method.

b) Confirmed, several times, that the bootloader is indeed unlocked.(via 'fastboot getvar unlocked' and verifying that the response is "unlocked: yes")

c) Tried to swap the Stock Recovery Mode with TWRP, using 'fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img'. The process ends in 1 sec. After booting in recovery mode, I find out it doesn't actually flash it.

d) Inside cmd: adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img

At this point I am trying to boot TWRP for a one-time job of rooting the device.

-Install>>Select UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip>>Swipe to Install>> Reboot System


e) After reboot: PERMANENTLY STUCK, will not boot past LG's Logo. It is still possible to enter the Stock Recovery Mode, and Stock Download Mode.

I have repeated the process twice, reflashing the stock ROM, to the same effect. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Accidently Disabled the front facing IR Proximity Sensors (used by Moto Display)

As the title goes, I accidentally disabled those sensors. I am using a pretty customized phone, TruePureXMM rom with frankenclark kernel, but I do seem to remember these IR sensors were working under this setup. I've done a lot of tweaking (probably not all helpful) with Gravity Box, Amplify and Kernel Adiutor and probably some others. Worse comes to worst and I'll just backup my app settings (anyone want to recommend a good, non pay-gated app for that?) and reflash.

Has anyone done this to themselves? did you figure it out?

[Help] Enable Cellular Network Settings -> System Select (CDMA) on Project Fi

I have been trying to figure out why my Nexus 6 can roam Verizon towers (via Sprint roaming agreement) on Project Fi, but my wife's Nexus 5X cannot. Unfortunately, the only tower near our home is a Verizon tower so it's pretty noticeable once you step outside the house.

After some digging and help from some others, we've figured out that this is because the Nexus 6 is configured for "Automatic" under Settings -> More -> Cellular Networks -> System Select, and the 5X is configured for "Home". Unfortunately the Project Fi app hides these settings, so the only way to access them is to disable the Project Fi app, and use adb to apply settings put global hide_carrier_network_settings 0, at this point you can access the settings, and make a call using the Verizon tower. As soon as you re-enable the Project Fi app, the setting is changed back to "Home" and the settings are locked up again.

So what I'm looking for is either a way to override Project Fi changing this setting, a way to launch this menu even while Project Fi is hiding it, or some other way to force the 5X to stay in Automatic. Ideally would be able to do this without root, but I'm currently rooted in an attempt to find some way to do this...

Any ideas?
