Kitkat Update

Hi all,

I haven't updated my phone to official kitkat because of the issues in the update. Can anybody confirm whether these issues have been fixed in the 22 mb knock code update after the kitkat update. Is updating to kitkat feasible now so that a user does not need to go back to jelly bean again after updating.

Also the update id I am getting while checking for software update : V20a. Will this create a difference when I check for OTA update of knock code because It is mentioned that the knock code update is for V20b.
[G2 General] mor_1228:
i am back on JB :good:
[G2 General] a26genius:
No kitkat as of now

Do you mean to say that updating to kitkat is still buggy and issues are persistent
[G2 General] mor_1228:
yup and battery sucks big time

Screen flickering...

Guys... I bought the lg g2 from flipkart on november when it released and loved evry moment i was with it. I read on some threads and forums that the g2 has screen brightness and flickering issues. But then i thought it might be the fault with their models and i got a good piece.

I did all the updates including the knock code which came out few days back. I use docomo 3g connection and have nova launcher prime installed. Today the phone suddenly started flickering its screen in morning which was unnoticable. By evening the flicker increased and now i cant see anything except the flicker when the screen is on!!

I am somehow trying to backup my apps using clean master. Should i try doing a factory reset now? Has anyone here had this experience?
[G2 General] sanke1:
You can't use Airtel's 4G Network. It is physically incompatible with old G2 hardware. That's why LG has released a new 4G compatible G2
[G2 General] amankapoor4:
Ya give the factory reset a try or else take it to service centre, they will fix it.

Problems in Kitkat 20B update

1. Still poor battery life. Cannot pinpoint which app is causing the drain.

2. Cannot enter Factory reset mode. (Factory Reset must be done from secret service menu 3845#*802#)

3. No gapless playback in music app! Come on LG

4. Still stutters and lags in UI. (Some people say that they don't see lag. That is a complete lie. Lag is here to stay on Android and annoy the **** out of us)

5. Knock Code is unreliable at best.
[G2 General] jeckyhauhnar:
Everybody have their own problems..for me battery is still great. I have done two OTA updates and haven't found the need to do a factory reset. As for lags i m using miui express not lg home and have no problem. Yes knock code works 96% of the time.

If flipkart does not cancel the order like it did in some LG G2 cases previously, then this is a STEAL @ 35490/- ( 5000/- or 15% discount, which ever is less )

Z1 is a very mouth watering proposition with all the discount & freebies on flipkart

I guess as we get closer to Diwali, there will be even more exciting offers from flipkart as well as other leading e-stores & may be exciting offer to choose from, from the local shops as well.

Ok Guys,

Glad to post the following links for the Spigen Case & Otterbox Case for our beloved G2

http://www.ibhejo.com/SPIGEN-LG-G2-Slim-Armor-Dual-Layer-Protective-Case-Metal-Slate.html

[G2 General] amankapoor4:
Well mate waiting game always pays, but you were one of the very first customers to get the phone. This is true not only for G2 but for any phone, people who paid 43k for S4, can get S4 for 34k today or less, so don't jump into these number games, enjoy the phone.

The above links are pretty much the same prices as per ebay, need to see if some of my friend is coming from US, that will help. Till then quick window cover ki jai ho
[G2 General] abhinavsg:
Oh yeah, you are absolutely right about that. The only thing is, the difference which 15 days have made is pretty substantial. It's always easy to be wise on the hindsight. I am enjoying the phone alright. ;)

Yeah, the pricing is the same but it's a source added to the present ones. Also one will be ordering from a website who is doing business in India. Actually I used the 'Request an item from US' feature on iBhejo in the morning. They listed the products just a few minutes back, so shared the link. :D

Do get yourself a case or two if someone is returning from the US.

Update : A friend of mine placed an order for the 32GB G2 on Indiatimes on 12 Oct 2013 @ Rs.37219/-. They have given him a deadline of 16 Oct 2013, by which date they will be shipping the product. Let's see if they are able to keep their word.

[G2 General] y2jamit:
I ordered my LG G2 32 GB phone from Indiatimes on the night of 8th October. The MRP was Rs.39,519 but there was an offer. I applied the coupon of MOBILEFEST and got a 10 % discount (Rs.3952) :) I got my phone delivered on 11th October itself. A lot of people are giving negative feedback about Indiatimes but I had no issues with them. The only small problem was that the Track Order information was not updated on the site even after the delivery :) The phone was sealed and with manufacturer warranty.
[G2 General] y2jamit:
Can anyone tell me where I can buy the Quick Window Cover? I just bought the phone without cover. Also how is this cover http://www.ebay.in/itm/LG-G2-Standi...?pt=IN_Mobile_Accessories&hash=item2c739e2998 ? Seems like a knock-off of the original :)

[G2 General] shameer_as:
Oh i think all samsung phones have that, my 2 yr old galaxy S2 has got video call. I thought phones with front cam will have video call by default? Front camera is supposed to be for video calls only. I just called LG customer care, the guy mentioned that as front camera is there, definitely video call is also there.

I think S4 got video call
[G2 General] rkaria1970:
didn't you got a flip case with the deal ?? it iss worth 3k on the retail package. Call LG toll free or your dealer, it's free currently, that's

what my dealer told me. Coming back to indiatimes, i was sitting on the deal of 37k for 32gb for about 3-4 days, but when i read all those

Any idea when we will get Update with KK issues resolved?

Hi friends, i recently updated by LG G2 (32GB) to kitkat (20b) (Bought in India - Indian version), and since then i observed few issues in it.

a) Noise in speaker sound and in earphones too.(Hissssing sound)

b) Knock on is working but not as it used to in JB. (tried that secret menu option of updating touch screen formware but no improvement)

c) Browser/Playstore keeps disconnecting to Wifi/3G (i think this could be happening to all the apps using net connection).

However i observerd battery life and speed of apps has been improved.

Now i want to know

a) Whether i can get my device downgraded to 4.2.2 at LG service centers ? (I never rooted my G2 till now)

b) Is there stock rom 4.2.2 specific to Indian version of G2? and if i flash it (thru KDZ method), will my warranty still holds good? or is 4.2.2 rom is same for all international version G2s?

c) I wrote to LG customer care regarding above issues a week back and dint get any response on it, if anyone has got response, pls let me know if they are working on fix)
