LG KU990 - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi All
Iā€™m new to all this as you will probably be able to tell after a post or two.
I have just bought a LG KU990 on orange and am just wondering what if anything is available to enhance my new phone.
I have heard that Orange modify the phone software and am interested in discovering the differences between the Orange and the LG defaults.

[Q] Phone distributed by Orange france

Hi, i called Orange france, and they told me that they will distribute 3 windows phone:
LG Optimus 7
HTC Mozart
Samsung Cetis
i did not found the last one on internet... but perhaps i misspel it?
do you know if one of these phone will have a physical keyboard?
since the hardware is locked by microsoft, there is no really room for constructor to create really diferents devices... my fear is : will HTC provide REAL 3d drivers on the phones? i mean, currently i don't play on my HD2, but WP7, will be very good to play...
i don't know if we'll be able to change the ROM... if not, i'm not sure i'll buy another HTC... but if yes, i'll do because of this forum...
do you have exact specs of these phones? or do you have an opinion on the best phone?
thx?
Cetus. Been lots of stuff all over the place on it.
the cetus seems to be the most interesting device of the 3 one listed above...

LG G7 ThinQ still worth buying for root?

Dear everybody,
Currently I am using a LG G5 (H850 EU) which is really great for root. Unfortunately due to a display issue and lack of good quality spare parts on the worldwide online market I am looking for a new phone. Important to me among others:
- Easy to root
- Ultra-wide cam
- MicroSD Card
That's why I am considering the LG G7 ThinQ. However, it seems quite a big hassle to get root on the LG G7 ThinQ when I read the forums here at XDA. Furthermore, J0SH1X announced to stop developing TWRP for LG G7 (here). This leads me to the question if the G7 is still worth buying if root is important? My fear is Android 9, which could be problematic without any new TWRP.
Would it better buying a V30 which looks also great instead of the G7? What are your thoughts?
Thank you for any advise.
Best wishes,
Alex

It depends on what model is it? Look for the European model (lmg710ea) because thats the only one that can be unlocked rn (eaw and others have locked bootloaders). And j0sh1x actually didnt quit. He got Android Pie working on the g7 and we got resistant twrp too.

In my opinion the G7 is working very well.
Rooting is relatively easy for the EU model (see the dedicated thread).
I am missing a bit the TWRP for the stock firmware (that is more than enough for me) and I fear we will not get it soon if ever.

Tips for buying a second hand LG G3

Hello everyone! I need advice. Please help me!
I'm considering buying a second-hand LG G3. The phone will be used for calls, photos and reading of documents (mostly offline). What are the most common problems and defects I need to be careful when looking and picking a phone? And another question - are there any problems or defects in the LG G3 that later have found a solution in the LG G4 ā€“ should I prefer LG G4?

Lg g3 too old . Cellphone new bigger than old. Why you have an idea to buy an old cellphone? In my opinion. Cheap Android device is table, have good function to do work better.
People buy what they want to buy. Old or new, doesn't matter.
I am on my third G3. This one I got via Amazon, a supposedly like-new model. It is perfect in almost every way. I lucked out because it was immaculate and every part of it works.
Being a fan of older ROMs I have to have the G3. Not my only device but continues to be my main driver.
LG G3 D851, AOSPA-L ROM, Nebula Rev9.3 Kernel, microG (NoGapps), MultiROM, XDA Legacy
