[q] lg g4 h815 - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
where can I get the H815 Model unlocked in the the USA and for how much?
thank you.

You can't officially from retailers. Have to get it through eBay or the like.

You can get it from ebay for around $650.

You can get it from Amazon now too, which is what I was waiting for. Not a fan of buying from Ebay. hoping to still get the lg freebies since amazon is an auth retailer.

True. With amazon u get the freebies. Only thing is it takes longer to get to you. The one on ebay is with free fedex 2 day shipping and is a little cheaper. But the freebies are awesome.

Wow... Thats true... So it is coming from Taiwan then
I called Amazon, I paid $659... Amazon said that my order wasn't going to have any import tax fee... I really hope it will be a very fast shipping. By the way, this one come with the QuadBeat 3 Headset, and possibly a plastic back too!

That's cool. are those good headphones? I rarely use any outside of the gym. Of course a backup back is nice too incase i have do use a case at some point for outdoor stuff.
I was kind of hoping it would come with the extra battery some come with since I don't think we'll be able to get the free battery promo

Well, I read the terms and conditions, and we might get a shot to get the free battery and microsd... It says Amazon... So, we can try right... When I get it I will apply ASAP. About the QuadBeat 3 Headset seems to be pretty good, but I've never used before...

Well think like this... This LG G4 is the international global version, which is free from carriers bloatware, that you can't uninstall unless you root it . Also, future updates comes first to the international model... With QuadBeat headphones, leather and plastic back... For $659 its not bad at all... And, you dont need to pay for tax....
The LG G4 Leather Att cost $669 PLUS TAX... Which it will bring to the cost of $750...

daliy steals, have you received it yet?

Mobile.dailysteals.com is selling the Samsung galaxy nexus for 559.99 + 4.99 shipping for only today, I'm thinking about picking one up as this is the best price we will probably see in months.

Order one. Hope it gets here soon.
I think i will order one too but im not sure how good the website is and how and how they would act if you need warranty work.. I might give them a call and ask.. ill edit my post later with their response!
DailySteals DOES NOT have phone support.. Now im not so sure what to do :/
Just took the plunge and ordered one from DS - I hope I don't regret it. Paid via PP, so if there's an issue - I can hopefully get my money back fairly easily.
This is the lowest price I've seen on it, and I've been watching Amazon - lowest there is $654.99 (includes shipping).
Fingers crossed that all goes well with this transaction...
Ordered one as well. Wonder what build it will come with.
They are a very legitimate website, I know people who've ordered form them they usually have some good deals
Also I think it includes a 1 year international Samsung warranty

funny thing is, the non-google signatured ones got updates before my google one did. lol
but in the end, they are ALL the same.
Condition: New Packaging: Retail Warranty: 1 Year International Brand: Samsung Model: Galaxy Nexus i9250. It says this under the info
Anybody have any experience with this site? Is it a legit seller? Why is it $100 cheaper than everybody else? I'm skeptic because i fear there is a catch. Too good of a deal.
International warranty does not apply to usa. Check amazon reviews of many samsung international phones to verify.
My grandma beat me down and took my nexus. Sent from a jitterbug with beats by dre.
I had a unlocked htc touch pro 2 and the international warranty worked for me when i dropped my phone in coffee. They charged me a $28 international warranty fee + shipping to chicago.
I don't see why samsung would be any different.
I read on another forum that the website is known to sell black market items and one thing that they are know for is their long shipping time.. I think they are legit but it might take time for us to receive the phone..
ive purchased from them before they usually take a week to ship out the items and they always use ups and give you a tracking number if that helps
This was pretty much the price point I've been waiting for. Ordered.
Let's just hope it doesn't need any warranty service.

So, if i buy this today and something better comes out at CES, how long do i have to cancel my order? I'm pretty sure it's not going to ship before CES.
I am almost sure something better will come out at CES from either HTC or Samsung but for me its not the octo core, 148 megapixel camera.. Its that this is a NEXUS phone! FTW!

Honestly the only difference I can see is that they import this one from Canada instead of the UK. Other than that it should be the same exact device. It's just likely to have a different ICS build.

I really don't care about the stock because I root when i turn the phone on But what i am understanding from what u said is I can flash any stock on canada version. correct? I really like the price. this will save me at least 40$. The thing is I don't want to be behind with updates also if I want back to stock. by the way canada version is made in china not korea

Who cares where its made. its fine lol.
Yes, Just flash the stock images from google (guides all over the place). At that point your phone will have an unlocked bootloader and yakju software. Then you can proceed to root.

They killed the "GIFT" coupon on the CAN $595 nexus the day after they started the sale. I got it because I bought right after the sale started, but they announced on twitter early the next day they were killing it.
OP, if you can pick it up for $580 shipped I think that's a pretty damn good deal.

You can get a 3rd party insurance on it I'm sure if you want full coverage.
Negri helps facilitate warranty exchanges with the international Samsung factory warranty for you if you'd like. But that doesn't cover accidental damage or anything. That's just a factory defect warranty.

Handtec has it for $631 and you'll get it overnight. It'll also be a UK phone vs. Malaysian which is what Expansys has been shipping. If you're rooting and ROM'ing it won't make a difference. Also, if you need warranty repairs, you have to send your phone to Expansys who then sends it to an overseas affiliate who sends it to HTC. If you buy it in the UK your warranty is with HTC directly.

Sorry but Plemix's price is $599
anyone tried those sites before??
do you know which version do they sell??
I got mine from Amazon. Not the cheapest, however, you'll get your device overnight, the support is good, and you have 30 days time to return your Device without a reason, even if it is unlocked. If you want to get a Replacement, they send you the replacement overnight, and you can send your old phone back in the same package the new one came in. This is quite helpful if you have a one x with problems...
Plemix is legitimate, I used to get my phones from them. Their company should be located in HK, so I would guess the version should be asian. E-mail them to check, I remember them being pretty good at responding back.

Are you asking about Negri? I placed an order with them over the weekend the one x first came out and didn't even get an acknowledgement, though my amex payment went through. When I emailed on Monday, I was told sorry nothing available and they had no idea when stock would come in. So I cancelled my payment through Amazon and got an immediate email saying oh gee they had one for me but it would cost $70 more to ship. I said no and ordered from Expansys. Have been happy with my one X since. I don't like being jerked around and won't deal with Negri again.

someone in another thread said expansys is selling the malaysian model??? i don't know. the one i received came in a box that said taiwan, indicating taiwan production and system language choices were all european. in fact, american english was not an option - so i downloaded morelocale2 to get that. there is the option to use keyboards from a larger group of languages that include asia.
i would check with expansys re model being sold, as i imagine that could change depending on what's available in the supply chain.
i should add that in another thread another uk retailer was listed. i am sorry, i can't remember the name.

FYI - Unlocked T-Mo Note 3 $669 (EDIT: Cancelled: Stay away from Negri Electronics)

EDIT: Sorry guys, but this coupon code is no longer valid. But it was fun while it lasted, huh. Also, as of 10/8 Negri has increased their price for the unlocked T-Mobile Note 3.
Went to Negrielectronics. Their price is $689, and I used a coupon code (NE20OFFCART) for $20 off, for a total of $669. This is considerably less than T-Mobile's unlocked cost ($704+tax). I got free shipping (Fedex Ground) and no tax as well.
Availability shows as 10-4-13, so i'm hoping that mine ships no later than Monday, as i'm probably not in the first batch of pre-order shipments. EDIT: Now says 'Coming Soon'.
Negri's website now shows the White T-Mobile Note 3 as 'In Stock' with 'Add to Cart' (instead of 'Preorder'). The Black version, however, still says 'Preorder'. Also, Negri's blog (http://goo.gl/iTQyTv) states that the first orders are being shipped out as of yesterday (9/8), and at least one person has stated in this thread that they have received their tracking number.
If you have received your tracking number, please post below with your pre-order date, which color you ordered, as well as your expected delivery date. It will help people figure out where they are in the queue.
Forget all of the above. I have cancelled my order with Negri Electronics. After three weeks of waiting for them to ship, Negri posted on their blog and basically confirmed what many of us have suspected for the last couple of days. Negri is buying their devices from shady suppliers who are selling them used devices. This has resulted in at least of couple of people who thought they were getting NEW Note 3s actually having their devices BLACKLISTED on T-Mobile. In addition, at least one person has received a device rooted with Knox tripped (and thus a voided warranty).
I was willing to put up with the three week delay (though now I feel like an idiot for doing so), but these new issues are unacceptable in my opinion.
Yeah but it's black.

Would this be a unlocked bootloader, region unlocked US version?
I went to the store but when they told me the device was locked I decided to buy at Negri's to save me the trouble.
Has anyone with the TMo version verified its locked?

I have heard that the black one has a better soft-touch feel while the plastic has a hard plastic feel (I played with one at an AT&T store).

They have a white one for pre-order now.

That's so weird, because that white one must have just appeared after I ordered mine.

Would this be a unlocked bootloader, region unlocked US version?

I don't know about a bootloader. I think the unlocked refers to the SIM unlock so that it can be used with any GSM carrier.

Has anyone with the TMo version verified its locked?

They haven't shipped any yet to my knowledge, but I don't see why they would advertise it as unlocked when it is not. But when I get mine I will confirm.

They told me I had to buy some type of wireless plan,did you? Like a SIM kit or something.

No, I bought the unlocked version. I don't even see a version that would require a plan. I don't think Negri sells phones with contracts/plans. Are you sure we're talking about the same site?

Thanx for this!
By next week I'll be the proud owner of 3 Notes!
ATT on upgrade tomorrow to turn for some cash to repay the TMO buy
TMO I just bought and saved $20 on thanx to you!
Original International Note from 2011 that I'll cash out for 3-400, so I should be zero outlay, Unlocked TMO phone on ATT!
Negri despite what their chat said did not require a sim or plan for checkout

I asked in Chat about the Unlocked and they said I had to select a wireless plan. But I'm thinking they were just trying to push the sales up. I even sent them the link to the phone. But that was untrue.
Already clicked for you! I'll clcik this one too.

Thank you for the reply, Reading here on XDA the T-mobile US phones did not have the region lock stickers on them, thats why I was wondering.
Discover is also offering 5% CB if that helps anyone out
delayed shipping
FYI, after talking with the CSR, it looks like the 10/4/13 delivery date is delayed until a week later on 10/10/13.
So will this be the same version, in essence, that i would get directly from tmo? For example, will the negri version still have wifi calling and come in the tmobile packaging?

I thought wifi calling was an Android feature that works with T-Mobile and not a T-Mobile feature as per se.

Damn. Can't even get the battery kit from G market.

Sellers only shipping locally for now. In case y'all don't know g market is an online web market in Korea and they're legit. Got some hard to get Samsung accessories from there and only had to pay a small premium. I just want one whole kit with the cradle and like a 6 pack of batteries. Ugh.
You can be the kit easily on eBay from Korean sellers.

What do I need 6 cradles for and the would be around $400. I want one whole kit and some legit batteries which I'm sure will sell for $20-30 when LG gets their act together.

Hustlers are buying them all up and selling to other regions. LG needs to step up their battery manufacturing anyways. They make excellent batteries and now Samsung has contracted them for future phones. In The meantime they need to step on it and get some on their website for the USA region. Why release a flagship phone with a removable battery which is getting more and more scarce these days and PROFIT. I know LG aint hurting that bad for money but they definitely need to step up the profits in the mi ile division.

The hustlers are buying all the stock and getting the jump on it to make a few bucks.
Have you tried www.ebay.co.kr they have a few, it's a shame that I can't send batteries out of hong kong, we have them readily available at USD 30

That's so sad. My only hope are friends coming from Hong Kong now since my friend who just flew back from Korea said that he went to 4 shops and all were out of stock.

Saw the kit on Amazon yesterday for $68-69 but decided to wait and see if it gets cheaper.
I was able to buy it on eBay on Oct 17, for $57 from a Korean vendor. Came FedEx on the 19th, OEM part no issues...

I actually tried 3 sellers and they ended up refunding because they can't ship batteries due to restrictions I guess the whole note 7 thing. My dad had an extra Xiaomi battery shipped a few months ago with no problem. Gah stupid Samsung.

Can't help you with this either, china has also stopped sending batteries. you're out of lucky, looks like you will have to wait at your end, in your country, don't you get two batteries.
So how is China shipping phones to other countries? They allowing corporations with permits or something? And is too risky personally to try and dupe the system?

Shipping batteries as a end user is not possible, but as a corporation, they have a license to do so. In hong kong you have to submit the battery to EMSD (government body) to test and if safe to do so, they will issue a safety report.
