The US version is us listed as "unlocked worldwide". Will the US version work over in Thailand on True Wireless? My wife is from Thailand and we go over there every so often.

A quick check on willmyphonework (dot) net indicates that it may or may not work on some of the telcos there. check out the website to see for yourself. The information on the site is pretty close on many things but as they say they are not 100 percent correct but a good start to finding the answer.

Thanks, I had totally forgotten about that website

You should be good. I went to the UK and Singapore with an unlocked Nexus One and it worked great. Just got my unlock code for my T989 as I have a trip to Sweden in 2 weeks. I used Giff-Gaff in the UK and Starhub in Singapore. Study the carriers frequencies before you go and buy a pre-paid sim and you will be good to go.

This phone is not pentaband which means it isn't guaranteed to work on 3g for all carriers. It does have 4 of all 5 bands, the only one you're missing is 900mhz so depending on where in Europe you're going you'll have 3g. You'll have to check the specific carrier you plan on using and as long as they support one of the bands, you'll be fine. (meaning they don't only use the 900 bands for 3g)
This will help. Still trying to find the site I used that told the carriers frequencies.

Perhaps here ? (from the old "gsmworld" site...I see they've changed a bit over the years)

Should I buy a Nexus 5X US model for use outside US;

The ~35% price difference between US ans UK purchases of Nexus 5X had me thinking about finding a way to get a Nexus 5X from US.
My concern is, will I have any issues with the device, if I use it in a european country (I live in Greece)? For instance 4G not working or other connectivity issues.
What should I be aware of before making that move?
TIA
Greece uses LTE bands 3 and 7, and UMTS band 1.
The US version of the 5X has these so you would be OK in Greece.

Should be the same! I think most of the European countrys use band 1,3,7 and 20
You can see the bands for italy on wiki (I´m not allowed to post links yet so im gonna describe where)
search google for "lte frequency bands italy" and use the link List of LTE networks in europe.
Greetings
You guys have to consider warranty as well as exchanges. Might be cheaper, but in the long run could be more expensive. Don't you guys have 2 year warranties?

2 years here in Italy.
If you don't care about the warranty then I day go for it if the spectrum is there. You won't have a warranty buying an out of market one.

It's a risk for sure, but the price difference I think justifies it. My concern now is whether service centers for LG here in Greece, will service US devices or they'll respond that they have no spare parts for the US model.
That's only if nothing goes wrong. I believe if you look at LG Nexus 5 section you might be able to find your answer if the do cross warranty. Something tells me they won't, because it doesn't work the other way around. From what I have seen people who bought international versions here had to send it to where the device was intended for. Sometimes the importer might give a limited warranty or some sort of warranty plan you can purchase.

Got a Korean LG G4 - does anybody know how to unlock to work with a UK SIM?

Hi All,
A long time ago I got this device sent to me by an old friend in Korea. I mainly needed it for testing purposes and doing a few videos so it being a Korean version was not an issue.
However now I want to sell this device to someone in the UK but noticed that when I put a UK sim in, it does not work.
Any ideas or fixes how I can get around this?
Thanks in advance!
There are threads for sim unlock in the sprint variant forums, I don't know if they could be helpful for you...

Are all EVR-L29 dual sim?

Quick question, are they all dual sim or do some of the above models only come as single sim ?
Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
Dual sim. You can substitute one sim however for expanded storage using Huawei's proprietary storage. I just use one or two sims in mine.

Thanks, how about in regards to the different region versions for this evr-l29. Will I still be able to get emergency messages like amber alerts and such using this model? I noticed a youtuber had those options when he was using his USA sim card in this device.

L29 is better because you can use google assistent and others stuffs, AL00 have differences to use assistent, localization with google maps not work good too. I can't tell you if you able to get emergengy messages, because i live in Brazil. So, better other help you with this. But i thinks, it's going to workg without problem. But confirm with someone that lives there

Also there is another post an xda member posted with pictures of his evr-l29 product label. The upc was 6901443278770.
The label didn't show as many lte bands as other evr-l29 models. Search my posts to find his post, as I replied to his post since no one had.
