Do not update if you have a custom recovery installed. Phone will not boot up normally and keep rebooting into recovery. Just tried it out.
[G2 General] sanke1:
The 10C update is good. The lag has reduced considerably and Us Indian users get Box storage integration under Settings/Cloud.

I can also see the deep integration of Box in the stock music app so feel free to upload music to box.com and enjoy 50gb of lifetime storage. All my bollywood music can fit in.

I do have 50gb of Dropbox but it will be reduced to 5gb after my earlier Samsung promotion expires 1-1-2015. So dropbox is pretty much useless.

But Box 50gb promotion is forever.

Guyz Is Indian LG G2 is LTE enabled or not?
[G2 General] jiteshj:
Yeah but not for indian bandwidth

LG G2
[G2 General] :
Let me put it this way -The Hardware supports TD-LTE band 40 (2300mhz) to be utilized by Airtel, RIL JIO and some others. Also FD-LTE band 3 (1800mhz) to be utilized by Videocon telecom. But it requires an update for the LTE menu to be visible in the network settings.

Check attached pictures
[G2 General] Shriac:
I am on stock recovery
[G2 General] whosaysjohn:
I mean just before applying the ota?
[G2 General] Vineet88:

overheating issue

after playing games for about half an hour the device gets really hot..hot enough to dim the screen brightness and then doesnt go up even manually..says cant increase brightness due to increase n temp and all...is it normal or i got a defective piece?

Just got the G2

Hello everyone,

Upgrading from the Galaxy S2. Saved money from a year for an upgrade.

WOW.Just WOW. this is so much better than my old S2. I got the 32 GB version, so i dont know if i will yet miss my 32 GB Memory card from my S2. Giving it to my wife. Want to be a part of this wonderful group of people !

I set it up and installed all my apps. still discovering everything about this phone. I havent yet got the 10C update that everyone here seems to be getting..

i am on 4.2.2 . should i be doing anything different?
[G2 General] mvgadagi:
Obviously.. :P
[G2 General] princeviv:
no nt rooted..on stock rom..had this issue before so got a replacement bt its still here..
[G2 General] amankapoor4:
Is it any game, or some specific games. I can try to reproduce. I have played real racing 3 till the battery ran out, but no such issues.
[G2 General] princeviv:
ur answer cms as a life saver..turns out its game specific overheating..probably developers of games need to send out updates fr games to mk them cmpatible wid the new snapdragon..
[G2 General] amankapoor4:
Happy to help :)

I bought it for 38500 (32gb)
[G2 General] mvgadagi:
Where did you purchase and what accessories u got free along with that?
[G2 General] Shylesh:
Myself and two of my friends are teying to purchase it online. If there are a few more out here, it may be possible to strike a deal for a coupon exclusove for lg g2 for us as bulk order. Please PM me if interested.

P.S : i would just be negotiating the discount we can get. The purchase is directly from the online store.
[G2 General] George Matt:
Exchange offer

Hi,

I'm in Ahmedabad and looking to buy a G2 32 GB as well.. so yes I'm up for any group purchase that might enable us to get a discount.

Also one more thing I think everyone here might not know about:

LG is having a buyback offer at their showrooms. The original price of the 16 GB and 32GB is 41,500 and 44,500. But with the exchange offer you can get 8000 off (unlike the 5000 shown on the LG India site - which isn't there on the site anymore). And this comes with the free Quick Window cover.

If you get in touch you can get the entire list of phones that are up for exchange. So if u can get one of those real cheap - say 1000 or less (they just want it working and with a charger), it's not a bad deal for being able to check out the phone before buying it.. and the effective purchase price would be 34,500/37,500

Cheers!!

George

P.S. If anyone gets a better deal (online,offline, group purchase let me know)
[G2 General] Shylesh:
People who are interested please PM me. After we get to a double digit number I can talk to online offline deals. A local deal is ready to offer me for 34.5/37.5k for a single piece. If we get around 10 orders I can persuade him for lower and also we might crack a deal with online stores. So let me have number of buyers please.
[G2 General] .jRay.:
From a local store in Mumbai. Got nothing extra except in box accessories.
[G2 General] mohit_delhi:
Hi Guys,

I purchased this phone couple of days back. And today have ordered a imak clear case, just wanted to confirm if the phone out of the box has got any stock screen protector or is it naked completely. Not able to make out looking at the screen :p

Also, does one really require a screen protector/guard for this phone? And if then what options do you guys suggest. Thanks!
[G2 General] Shylesh:
[/COLOR]

It is naked. What version of the mobile did you get and what was the price???? Does it came with any accessories? What was the clear case's price?

Any mobile looks and feels great with a naked screen, but when it comes to protection screen protector (A tempered glass one) can be preferrred. While nothing can save your phone from a nuclear peril, smaller scrathes can be protected. A tempered glass protector offers more security and naked like feeling.

See its better to notget updates than getting unstable updates.. and one more thing, what makes you so excited about 4.3? What is that feature that makes you think I want 4.3 ? 18 months arent over Sir.. Wait and watch.. LG maybe slow, but their updates are worth waiting.

[G2 General] abhinavsg:
Hi everyone,

Got the G2 32GB on 01 Oct 2013 for Rs.42300 from local distributor. The first time I charged the phone, it lasted 68 odd hours. The camera on the device is extraordinary as well. Loving it.

There are a few complains as well, please comment on these:

1. Loudspeaker performance is not very satisfactory

2. Earpiece is not top notch flagship quality (although it is pretty good)

3. UI definitely needs refinement in terms of smoothness. When i scroll the lists on any app, the scrolling is not smooth. It's pretty jittery

As I have mentioned earlier, would love to hear the experience & comments of other G2 users.

---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 PM ----------

4G is a Snapdragon 800 feature on the phone as it's SOC. You can enable 4G on the Indian version. Just type the code : 3845#*802# and you will be presented with a list of actions/checks you can do on the phone.

Good deals online

I got my Black LG G2 32GB for 36379 from Indiatimes Shopping.

While the price was good, I ordered on 2nd December and it was delivered to me today on 22nd December. The consignment was apparently stuck in Sales Tax, but the Indiatimes customer service is horrendous. They kept saying will get back to you in 24 hours for the past week.

Long story short, the phone's amazing and I think I got a pretty good deal on the price.

Ok guys,

I am sure a lot of you must have Rooted, Installed Custom Recovery & Flash Custom ROM's on your G2. I did just that, installed the OmniRom. Didnt quite like it. Restored to the stock by restoring the Nandroid BackUp file I had created just before Flshing the ROM.

I now want to get back to my G2 as if came from the factory, Unrooted. There's a thread on XDA for doing exactly that. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

Is there anybody on this thread who has gone back to complete stock, unrooted after installing a custom ROM? I do have a question related to the whole unrooting process, posted it in the above thread. Here's what I posted :

"I have the D802 Indian Version. Software Version D80210c-IND-XX, rooted & TWRP installed. Can I use the D80210B_00.kdz file for the purpose of flashing? You may please note that I had received an OTA Update on my phone from LG & I did install that"
[G2 General] whosaysjohn:
You can flash the 10c kdz and get back to stock...its available for download in that thread...just follow the steps mentioned in the thread you just linked...i flashed 10c over 10b, though it did not wipe anything, my recovery was changed to stock after flashing the kdz...
[G2 General] rubenswing:
Did you check by putting your phone into download mode, does it still say rooted or unrooted?
[G2 General] abhinavsg:
could you point me to the post with the 10c kdz file please. i could not find it. :(

LG G2 Build Quality

hi

i am very much looking forward to buy this beautiful monster :fingers-crossed:

there are few things which keep changing my mind though.

1) does the lg's ui really look that cluttered and cartoonist (those who are owners or have owned this please answer, i haven't got a chance to experience it physically) :eek:

2) how is the plamability i mean one hand operation or may be i should ask how terrible is it(i am having a feature phone samsung monte to be specific hence this question) :confused:

3) most importantly how is the build quality

i saw this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlqSuNlK_Ew) video the other day and it almost shattered my dream of owning it. :crying:

although the youtuber does mention that the unit demonstrated was korean one so i would like to know your view on the indian version of lg g2

and about my post i can't have my hands on that device without buying it so i asked what is being said all over on internet....that was by no means my personal view

u could have just said, my device doesn't make any peculiar creaking sound or whatever u felt was so "disrespectful" about that device

Thanks for the understanding

either from old war horse LG O2X or my new beast LG G2
[G2 General] amankapoor4:
1. No it does not, though it does look a bit touchwiz'ish. That said it is the best Rom i have ever used, feature rich and covers almost everything. FIrst Android phone i have not rooted and no plan to do so.

2. One hand operation is fine, though it might be borderline case for some. After using Xperia Z for 3 months i find this much easier to handle, even though it is .2" bigger.

3. Build quality is ok, no creaking sound at all. Owing to the bezels i am a little skeptical keeping it naked. A case seems to be a must to be safe.

That said my last few phones have been Xperia Z, HTC one, HTC one X and Note. I can easily say this is the best Android phone i have ever used, absolutely awesome.
[G2 General] abhishekSPS:

[G2 General] shiwaji:
Just to reply...there are many videos on youtube dedicated to LG G2 UI or LG UI in general...its really a matter of personal choice..

Now for handling the device...its depends on size of one palms which are unique...

Suggest you take the demo of the physical device and try it out since you are actually going to spend hard earned money on it..its a considerable investment.

As for durability of the device...it really depends your handling of device its an portable consumer electronic device not military grade device.
[G2 General] abhishekSPS:
thanks

thank u sir for clearing things up

that beast is sure the best smartphone and a beauty to behold, even sexier than my crush ;) :D

any case u would recommend...? which would serve the purpose...i am more inclined toward leather wallet style cases becoz they seem to provide a sort of cushioning effect although it would downright make it almost impossible for one hand operation.

which case would u recommend???

---------- Post added at 10:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

just out of curiosity.....i read somewhere that the "developer options" which is generally present in settings in stock android and almost all roms is not present or hidden, may be, in lg g2.

is that true...??? although i highly doubt that. :confused:

So, I'm thinking of splurging on the G2. What's the cheapest price its been bought for in bangalore? And which shop will be most helpful.

Or shud I just order it online?

Snapdeal: 37087

Flipkart: 366xx

Any better deal available?
[G2 General] getclikinagas:
I bought it off Amazon India for 34255. Every once in a while they put a few pieces on discount at this price or lesser. And these pieces are 'fulfilled by amazon' and shipped by them. I got it delivered to bangalore in 24 hours, COD. Keep an eye on amazon. I used pricedealsindia.com to get a compilation of the lowest prices.

Edit: I just took a look at the site again

Snapdeal has it for 33541 with a coupon code

Flipkart : 32400(if you use a HDFC credit card)

Amazon India : 34255
[G2 General] Wannabe Loser:
Thanks buddy.

Btw, are those prices for the 16 gig version?
[G2 General] getclikinagas:
Oh.. I'm sorry. Yes, those are the 16GB prices.

I'd gone to quite a few mobile shops in bangalore(well known ones), and none were even close to the online price.
[G2 General] Wannabe Loser:
Thanks again pal.

So, you picked up the 16 gig version?
