Hi-
So I've been looking at getting an Android device, as I'd finally like to leave apple. I have considered the Samsung S4 and Xperia Z, but they don't suit (too expensive, or too big).
However, I recently saw this device on sale (in Australia - $388), and the spec's have impressed me a lot. It's the international version (32GB, 13MP camera).
My priorities are:
1. Use as an eReader
2. Decent Battery
3. Run remote desktop apps (VNC/LogMeIn)
4. Play games (mainly SNES/n64 emulators)
I've noticed the development scene for this phone is not big. What does this mean for me? Just less roms available?
I'm also concerned as I've read the camera isn't great... Is that right? Have any of the new roms fixed it?
Also- will multiview be possible? I know it isn't on stock- but can any ROM's do it?
Cheers
1-4, yes yes yes yes.
Custom roms are working great,no issues.we have quality over quantity.
Multi view is not for g,but for g pro.don't know if a value pack with goodies from g pro will be released for g.i hope it will.
Camera is decent,don't expect miracles in low light conditions.but on normal light conditions,it's just great.
no phone can replace a dedicated camera,remember that.

Ok cheers for the response.
I would go and buy this phone now- but having multiview is a must. Such a shame!
You will not regret it

Hi, found that you are running CM 10.1, could you give us some reviews about battery? For moderate use (like music, surfing, and small games as angry bird, temple run), how long can the battery go?
Thanks.
1. Use as an eReader

2. Decent Battery

Battery just scks. Its scks so bad.
3. Run remote desktop apps (VNC/LogMeIn)

Im using LogMeIn, works nice but the "4,7 too small for this IMHO.
4. Play games (mainly SNES/n64 emulators)

Some games wiping battery in one and half hours.
It's better than stock, at least for me,with a litle tweaking.
For moderate usage you will get 1 day easily.I'm a heavy gamer,though, got 5 hrs of real racing 3 .this is great for me.
No complains here.
Moderate usage for me is this :
20-30 minutes talk
Texts
3 hrs browsing(including youtube) on 3g/LTE
1.5hr or so of gaming like you said(not fancy 3d games)
Music in the background
Battery lasts from morning till dawn without any problems
Seriously 5 hours? That's unreal :-O
i will post screens when i will let the phone settle for a while, easter it's coming here and i will be off for 3 days
It's very important what apps/services are running in the background and the network signal.I use greenify to be sure nothing i don't want is not running in the background

From 4.1 and above, LG's stock ROMs have their own implementation of Xperia small apps. Technically IT IS multiwindow, but only for like calculator, web browser, etc. haha. Still, better than nothing! Goodluck in making your choice
Thanks for the responses everyone.

I think I saw this- quickview or something. It seems ok, but not exactly what I need.
I was sold on it, after everything you all told me, but then when I went to get the device- I just found it too square/large. It's similar to the Xperia Z in size, and the squareness makes it quite bulgy in my jeans. So I'm affaid on size alone- it's no longer an option for me
after spending a while with the G, i´d avise you to go with a mainstream device....
yea the G looks nice, but the camera sucks, battery sucks and with mainstream stuff you get faster updates, more community support and so on
Yeah right,a premium device sucks more than a mainstream. do you realise what you are saying?it's like ,man,go for renault,not mercedes.
Again,why would i need updates if the original software has no issues?just for the sake to say,hey,i have the latest firmware.no visible improvements,but,what the heck,i have the latest.
To be honest, gesture ui from lg is the smoothiest experience compared to similar devices from major competitors(s3,onex).heck,compared with a nexus 4,which is the "pure" android experience,there is no difference.an i compared some flagships,not medium devices.if you advice someone to go for mainstream,it means you never had such devices.in order to trully enjoy android experience,you need at least dual core,1gb ram,decent gpu and at qhd or more display.
Tell me what mainstream device meets all these requirements.

Camera solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2065799
I will admit, camera is not as good as other devices, but that tweak offered by Epic_ actually helps greatly with clarity/quality.
Battery:
Root and unlock your phone using universal root / manual + FreeGee.
Install Titanium Backup - remove the bloatware (LG MLT in particular)
Install Greenify - greenify your apps
Disable Fast Dormancy..
Battery life is insane after doing all this. Phone deep sleeps properly.. 2 hours screen time so far, wifi always on / 3g + data on and I'm on 75%, which is on par if not beats the other "mainstream devices" - (SGS3, One X..)
The build quality of this phone is also amazing - observe this drop test of the phone.. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cj_F_qc5cds
I actually don't mind that there isn't a lot of ROM development for this phone.. I actually really like LG's stock offering. QSlide is actually quite useful.
And this is coming from me who came from a Nexus S lol

im playing with a 4.4 aosp build that aospa made for nexus 7(fhd) and it is amazing. the speed difference and smoothness of the OS is a huge step foreword,even in an early quick build. Lol now ill be perfectly happy as soon as they finish making a flashable gapps, and my note gets an aosp build, 4.3 or 4.4, i want to remove touchwiz!!! and yes i know, i could try to build it, and i have been trying,but im obviously missing something, cause i cant get anything to boot that isnt touchwiz

The only probablem with and AOSP build on this phone is you are going to lose 80% of the functionality of this phone. The entire design of the phone, spen, sensors, automated services, etc are built around TW. Once TW is gone, all that is gone, and what is left is a fast processor with stock android and 2 or 3 spen apps that may or may not work on the Note 3
Essentially you want to take a Chevy Cobalt, and stick a Aftermarket engine in and and a Custom paint job. when it's said and done, it's still going to be a regular old Cobalt.

i dont use the spen, nor have i ever. i have bought every single note, based on screen size alone,and the development community. i prefer aosp, i dont comment on others desire to use tw and the many many features it offers. I just dont use them, so would prefer to have a rom that didnt have them. I i used multiwindow, or spen,etc, i wouldnt ask for aosp. If google released a note 3 sized device, i would buy it, but since they dont, i buy the note series and wait for our genius devs to make me cm roms to play with

A lot of us don't even use 98% of TouchWiz's gimmicky features - we just love the big display. I've had to install at least a half dozen apps AND Xposed just to get back a lot of what is built into CyanogenMod, for example.
One nice feature of TouchWhiz, though, is swiping down in fullscreen apps shows the hidden notification bar, but, 4.4 will have that feature stock now. Magazine, AirStuff, SmartFooScrollWhatever, SPen Blah... however, won't miss it. I'll probably miss the camera, since that's one of things that's often hit or miss when CM is first released on a new device. Oh, almost forgot: I'll definitely miss the nice InfraRed universal remote app that comes with the device, because the next best one costs $$$.

AH gotcha, In that case it makes sense. Always curious to find out why people purchase certain phones and then want to put Aosp on them.
And there are people working on AOSP, but until somebody gets a base, that is stable, we won't see it. From the guys i talk to, until the dev edition is released, Sammy is keeping a tight lid on it because they don't want another leak, like the S4 had
For the people that want it. I know it's not AOSP, but when I get this INT. RoM picked apart like i want it for the masses. I will work on a seperate Int. ROM that will have as much TW removed without breaking the phone. Or, just replace TW with a custom Launcher that will let me freeze all the garbage you guys don't care about.
aosp always takes time, bs tw roms, nothing to do with samsung, just a matter of devs having to create drivers, etc. im pretty sure one of the cm devs got cm running on the tmobile note 3, but it was to buggy to release.took a couple months for note 1,note 2, etc, we will have it soon. I may be wrong, but the nexus 5 may make the note 3 easier to get to aosp, because it uses the same chip set, so i think it may make things a bit smoother, not alot, but hey every bit helps!
only reasons i bought note 3 knowing nexus 5 was coming is
-5.7 screen
-sd card
-snapdragon 800
Wish someone could make an AOSP rom that has all of the s-pen features present. Would be the greatest of all time.

Same here. The Touch Wiz stuff is there to show off in commercials for the average brain dead consumer to think is cool. First thing I do is disable all the motion/eye crap. The pen is the only thing I miss, but I really only used that for Draw Something.
To all the guys that love aosp and not TW you should switch to the nexus 5. How could you not like any of the features? Camera and such? Having aosp is like ANY other phone as old as it gets. Stock Android is available for many devices. Note 3 has its own special set of features, removing it it's like a car with no wheels. Not one of kind anymore just like the phone your buddy has. 700 phone to look like a 200 device is just dumb. But that's yalls minds I guess.

Unfortunately i'm among those brain dead consumers that you speak of. I actually don't like Sammy software, and have not since the Behold For those that even remember that phone). I do on the other hand, use alot of the features that come with it as i'm an IT and it makes life easier for me to carry around the note 3 instead of a tab, and pen/paper, and lap top to be able to do what i can do with this.
Waiting CyanogenMod！

I think ultimately we(donate) and they(devs) make solutions. My proposition is to rebuild multi window via s command style, draw box you have a window, minimize you get a floating bubble(notifications on bubbles would make sense). I don't know how hard that would be to build for AOSP but Clean android and multi App Window would make for a very light weight and productive Rom. I believe something similar is soon to be released but not with this level of simplicity hardware/user wise. Plus I've seen multi window on aosp roms coming to play out so I can't imagine why this isn't feasible.
**update**
Omnirom is the name of the rom that will feature multi window on aosp.

Nexus 5 is a 5in screen.
Note 3 is a 5.7in screen.
And stock android can be modified to be far more unique than TW by the way.
And there are people who don't find any of these features useful, which was stated before. It will be a shame to loose the camera app though.
Nexus ONE
Nexus 5 has 0 microSD slots
Note 3 has 1 microSD slot
Plainly put I brought this phone for the hardware not the software. I would have brought this phone with out the spen and Samsung features lol

Yeah I had been waiting for the nexus 5, sold my n4 and decided to go with the note3, totally happy I did..
i dont want a 5" phone without sd, i want a 5'7 inch screen, with sd, and the note 3 looks way better then the n5. I dont like touchwiz,i hate it, but i love samsung hardware. The beauty of android is choice, why complain that other people have a opinion that isnt the same as yours?
I came from the n5 and I already miss aosp. I was wondering if anyone else feel the same way. I also want to know why other companies such as sams and htc offer a google edition for their flagships and not lg? Like why in the world wouldn't lg offer a ge for their phones?

I'm coming from an N5, previously had the G2, but 4.4 fobbed up pdanet tether so I went for the N5. I am looking forward to getting away from AOSP.
aosp is kinda boring now but after trying out android it made me change my mind..i have never been a fan of touchwiz im just gonna try it out once they release it to stores but we wont see a stable aosp build till next year
Keeping this G3 vs saving $215 and using my nexus on android L is a hard dilemma right now

My N5 already feels small lol. I don't really mind LG's skin as it isn't too obtrusive. I know I'm going to miss my Nexus when Android L drops, but I really like the bigger screen and I should have much better battery life now.
I have the red variant on the N5, but the G3 will be a nice change of pace.

Yea, but I need something different.
I came from the N4 to the HTC One M7 then the N5 to the G3, do I miss stock android, sometimes, is it fatal to my enjoyment of the G3? Hell no!
LG's theme is not too far from stock, it is enjoyable enough, you still have access to more or less everything you do on a stock android build.
As for the GPE, I believe it is Google that are the driving force behind that, it may be that because LG have been building the last few Nexus devices that they have not wanted a GPE too.

thankfully if they do release a GPE, you can simply flash the GPE rom on the carrier variants of the G3
Yep miss it sometimes but to be honest.. I dont mind G3's launcher.. Its not that far off + you get some handy features.
Also with my G3 I rooted it instantly then installed the Google Experience Launcher, Xposed framework with GEL settings and the new 'Teaksbox" module and its amazing now!! <3 love it!
Yep, I'm coming from the N5 too. At the beginning I also missed AOSP.
But to be honest after some usage I think the LG Android is pretty fine. I uninstalled the apps I don't need or want, use nova launcher for the AOSP feeling, have hidden some more apps from the app drawer, changed the settings menu to list view, installed SwiftKey keyboard and the missing Google Apps from the play store.
It is pretty decent now and I'm happy (especially with the camera .
And yes the N5 and N4 feel so tiny now, lol.
I have the VZN LG G3 unlocked, rooted, w TWRP and no bloat and I'm loving it, so I thought I would look into the G pad 10".
I would be using it among other things quite often for marine GPS navigation and upgrading my 7" to a 10" at a reasonable price $249. The issue I have is that with Android 4.4.2 Navionics then makes you switch to a new app with subscription services built in and it's ridiculous that I can't use my maps on the new app and my paid version (old) app force closes and is a know complaint and everyone is pissed about it in the sailing world, so I need to find a Tablet that is or will downgrade to 4.2.2 JB which is completely fine with me. What are your thoughts, I'd rather not go to a samsung tab 3, but I'm not sure I can get the G pad to 4.2.2. with what seems like so little going on e.g. only 2 roms in the dev section.
What do you guys think?

Hello friends and family!
As I stated at one of my first posts if Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus should get official update from Samsung to Android 8 Oreo it will not be soon.
Based on what's been happening so far and back last year I'll say we'll get it in June 2018.

I must say Oreo did not improve my battery life. It dies slightly faster if anything. And my phone never got hot before oero. Warm yes, but not hot like my s7.

Android 7 is ok. Oreo has some improvements I really prefer however. While I can get split screen on nougat too, Oreo has a screen in a screen so I can watch YouTube and put it into a smaller box and keep the rest of my screen for my game or browsing , the UI is also a bit better looking and the system is faster overall. No real lag or wait for things to open and run. But like any new OS the first few versions are plagued by bugs. I was fortunate enough to be able to fix all of mine and it's running smooth. Except NFC. But really.... Its NFC. I don't use it. Kernel auditor and background restrictor improved the battery. The heat issue I've not defeated yet. Its obvious its pushing the Gpu harder then necessary, it's currently only happening when a game runs. Maybe if I slow the max core speed and or take 2 of the 8 offline it will correct it

yep, same here, no use for NFC (yet).
This split screen, is it something like KNOX to divide pro and priv stuff or just like 2 Tabs in a web browser?
This "split screen" is a bit unfortunate name now cause Xiaomi (dual apps and something else I forgot the name) uses something like that to do what KNOX does.

yep, same here, no use for NFC (yet).
This split screen, is it something like KNOX to divide pro and priv stuff or just like 2 Tabs in a web browser?

It's a screen in a screen. Like watching youtube in the corner while playing a game or surfing the web. Or splitting the screen Into two equal halves to do two different tasks at once
