Thanks to OP for his awesomeness and making this possible!

I will upload and in 1-2 hour time.
Yes please, that would be easier to flash in one step :)

To all who successfully managed to upgrade to Android 7.0 Nougat following this method ......
How is your G4 H818P/N in terms of battery life (SOT), smoothness and functionality?
Any issues so far?

No prob so far. I reduced resolution to full hd by adb so my g4 now is very smooth and cool with SOT >5h.

If I have a G4 H818P running rooted Android 5.0 Lollipop, I can just go ahead with installing Nougat following your steps?
This Brazil firmware is not a must!?

Umm I think if we use a rooted boot.img and system.img from h815. For example if someone backups the boot of any rooted h815 then that boot is already rooted with super su and then just a system with super su files injected. And replace the original system and boot from the zip by those and afterwards flashing them in android 5.1 rooted. Is it possible?

No. Need LG digital signature for boot.img. In custom kernel no signature. Loader don't boot custom kernel.

There are several topics about this Problem.
Google it.
Some suggest to Uwe an alternative Launcher because LG s does make some problems with other dpis.

I haven't tested using other launchers but you could try.
