[Q] UK LG G3 D855 on Straight Talk - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if its best to get the unlock UK LG G3 D855 or just wait for the ATT D850 version to use with my straight talk (I have a att sim)?
Also I live in Florida so will the Frequency of the UK Version work in the US? (example Like 4G, MMS, ETC)
Any drawbacks?

Will this work with 3 Mobile in Australia?

I can stand Telstra and as they are only available in Australia via Telstra, i want to purchase one outright. I want to know if anyone knows if this phone will work well on the 3 network.
The unlocked HTC desire will work on any network in Australia (not as good on telstra). I'm getting mine from clove on the 7th . Plussss, it's ALOT cheaper getting it imported from the UK, all up it comes to like $550 if i can remember right. It will be around $800 outright from Telstra.
P.S i forgot to mention that you can't get it from t-mobile, you'll have to wait for the unlocked version.

I'm pretty sure all of the T-Mobile ones are unlocked . Check with others on the forums. T-mobile is probably not an option anyway unless you have a UK address- I dont think they sell them outright??
Will definitely work on 3mobile Australia. I'm also getting one from clove. I'm checking about every hour to see if they have brought the shipping date forward
T-Mobile ones are LOCKED.
Both versions will work on Three, but the International version will not work on Telstra

by International I mean the sim-free/unlocked ones from Handtec/Clove etc

Ive asked for clarification of that from wiki mod. I don't see why you couldn't use NextG. Unless the APac model is different from the AU model, they all support the same bands.
Do you know any reason why NextG differs from other 850 networks? Not that I care - Id rather cut my arm off with a rusty saw than go on a telstra plan. Just curious, thats all.

So today my e975 arrived. What to do first?

Hi all,
Today my LG Optimus G E975 finaly arrived. I live in Europe (NL) so I waited for this model to not get in trouble with frequency bands in a few months when LTE will become available here. According to the specs I wouldn't have a problem with LTE with at least half of the providers.
My provider probably will not implement it soon so I can switch to a good one at that time. Now I have slow UMTS 364kb/s but eey it is unlimited for 50ct a day. streaming over 10G a month. When I putted my simcard in it had no problem detecting anything it even changed the language of the phone to my own, i wouldn't have a problem with english but ok it is easy.
Qslide apps are in the notification bar. It comes with JB 4.1.2 straight from the box and had the right plug for me. Both English and European.
It even updated E97510a-OPEN-HK to E97510b-OPEN-HK, again something i didn't expect from a phone ordered internationally (updates are a B.eautiful I.ntelligent T.easing C.harismatic H.ermaphrodite here for outside phones) so I am very pleased.
So obviously what to do first with this phone? I don't need root yet as I am not intrested in trying new roms in the next couple of weeks but what about themes and tweaks? Any European users that know a place where they would sell the right bumper or otterbox and/or screen protectors that I don't need to ship from US or asia? I don't feel like waiting for weeks or pay for express delivery to double the price.

I'm reeally confused as well as tensed about compatibility of ROMs between E970, E973 and the E975......which I bought. I owned a ZTE Blade which ruled in moddability, lets see whats the future for Optimus G !
Bump. I just bought my E975 from Mobicity (Australia). I don't really understand whether roms for other models will be supported. I'm upgrading from my HTC Desire HD (she has served me well) and would love to get back to CM10.1 or AOKP as soon as possible.
The Australian rom is the best so far for stock JB. I've been using it for almost 2 weeks now.

[Q] Where can I buy an Unlocked and International model of the G3?

I live in the US. Where can I buy an LG G3 that is unlocked and is the international version, you know, the one with built-in wireless charging. I found an unlocked model on Amazon but don't know if it is the International edition. F*ck US carriers. Anybody know? Thanks!

There is also the problem that there is no 32GB model in Europe. Am I right? That's what I need, more space and the more RAM.

Clove.co.uk are pretty good.

or u can just spend $3 on a SIM-unlock code and $10 on the QI charging sticker.. add it to the inside of the battery cover of a US-variant G3 and not deal with any of this.
T-Mobile's is bootloader unlocked. Add $13-$20 to unlock sim/enable wireless charging.

[Q] Would the LG G3 LTE-A (LG G3 Prime) Work Internationally?

Hey all,
Just a question I've got out of pure curiousity, would the LG G3 LTE-A (LG Prime, LG G3 Prime) work in countries apart from Korea?
This one for example: http://tinyurl.com/po27mqs
I know it's the version made just for Korea to work with their LTE-A bands, but it does say it's unlocked, so could you use it internationally in a country like the US or Australia? As I said I'm just curious, but if someone bought one and wanted to use it like the D855 International version, could they use it like the D855 in other countries, but with the slightly upgraded hardware?
And as for the software-side, they wouldn't be able to just flash updated D855 KDZs, right? They'd have to wait for the software to be released for that specific model of phone (Seeing as LG is based in Korea it wouldn't be that long of a wait)
Hi,
I've got F460K from Korea and it works fine in Poland. I have not any problems with this phone, besides of this, that there isn't many custom roms for that specific model. A few days ago my LG got even upgreade to L :]

Anyone know the different versions of LG G4 ?

Heya Fellas
asking if theres any info as to what versions are out in the wild (as in the code name of the different versions) ,
and where one could buy himself one? (online stores with an international warranty)
Official release world wide is not until tomorrow (the 28th). At that time we will find out the variations: 32gb, 64gb, leather back, plastic back, CDMA, GSM, carriers, etc. etc.

Sorry I missed your response, I watched it on Cnet. It was pretty good. I'm still in.
However, still unknown on all the possible variations. Not much was talked about on that front, and apparently USA may not be until June - Korea tomorrow - so not sure when we will know more,

H811 -> T-Mobile USA
LS991 -> Sprint
US991 -> US Cellular
VS986 -> Verizon
*update
hmm... the VS999 might actually be the new LG tablet that leaked the other day... the specs I saw on the VS999 seemed high end but the resolution was weird and more fitting of a tablet. So Verizon G4 is probably the VS986.

Yes, but the nice leather back does not have the wiring for it. You will need to purchase a different back or some after market converter.

Just to make it clear. The T-Mobile USA LG G4 has wireless charging capabilities but the stock phone will need a new back that has the appropriate wireless charging "antenna" and contacts.

every G4 has wireless antena's by defaut :
4 antena's = 2 NFC and 2 for wireless charging :
for now , there is only the flip cover that can wireless charge the G4, but this flip case is in plastic , and a strong selling point of the G4 is the leather back, i personally don't see LG not making wireless charging on the leather back cover , that would be a huge mistake from them, plus that, as this is a cool feature everybody would want to buy a back cover that has wireless charging
They did it on the G3 , so i guess they will to on the G4, they have to ( check this out )
EDIT : the G3 international ( D855 , which i have ) did came with wireless charging on his back by defaut , in the U.S people had to buy the back cover like above, to have wireless charging, i'm not sure if all U.S carriers didn't have it

H-810 (or H-812) = AT&T (or US Regional/MVNO/etc)
LS-991 = Sprint
VS-986 (or AS-986) = Verizon (or US Regional/MVNO/etc)

H636 = Canada
K815(P/L/AR/K) = Korea

this depends on where you wanna purchase it, there is no simultaneous worldwide release. for example t-mobile usa announced it for june 2nd, while korean F500L versions are already on amazon and the likes.
Well I wanted to know which will be the international version since I come from MEA region and where I could get 1 As soon as it's out
Our stores take a long time to get the latest phones to the market (between 1-2 months)
