I have both the devices. Z1 is more premium in built quality. G2 beats z1 in terms of camera, screen battery, xda development, software (here i mean that every update of lg made something better out of the phone but sony is known for terrible updates), qremote which is unmatched, customization and very importantly size and weight of the phone. I dropped my z1 and cracked the front and rear galss both. Z1 doesn't have knock on feature too. I will be getting rid of my z1 soon
[G2 General] habunath:
Anyone can tell which roms are safe to flash on G2 so that the screen is not damaged permanently like many reported? thats the only thing stopping me to buy the LS980 for 25K.

Is there any issue with Camera, there is one thread in this section complaining about the camera. Infact i compared camera between S4 and G2. For me G2 looks better compared to S4. Photos taken with S4 has some yellowish shade.
[G2 General] y2jamit:
The Flip Cover was not a part of the deal. On Flipkart they were selling the 32GB around Rs.43,500 promoting the cover as free but you can see that the price was actually included in the deal. I will check with LG but I confirmed with Indiatimes Contact Centre. They said that the phone was not going to come with the cover.
[G2 General] abhinavsg:
I dont think it's fair to compare S4 & G2. Let's be honest, Samsung is the worst out of all the big names. The reason for samsung's big sale numbers are Marketing, Huge variety of Models (sometimes their own phones compete against each other) & Fast release of products, even if they are totally un-finished.

As far as S4 is concerned, it's an absolute nightmare. One has to find a good point in it, it's full of negatives. For me the biggest negative is the big.LITTLE architecture coupled with an absolutely un-cooked OS on the Exynos & Pathetic software implementation on the Snapdragon. Guys, I am not telling all this coz I own a G2. I have had the S3 & Note2 previously & the overall experience was poor to say the least. I have waited for a good product for quite a few months, HTC One came really close to being my device (it really is a worthy competitor of the G2 imo) but I am glad that I picked up G2 over it.

(Disclaimer : all the above points are my personal thoughts, if you dont like what I have written, well, there's nothing I can do about it)

Would like to know what my other friends on this thread thing about this.

---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 PM ----------

I agree to all the others who suggested you check with LG to be absolutely sure. :good:

Your location says Kolkata. I am from Durgapur (very close to Kolkata). Which shop did you buy it from? I know a few shops there, so asking :D
[G2 General] $had0w:
and egrangi

I bought it from DP Electronics, its in Chandni Chowk, opp of Railton Electronics, a few minutes from EMall. I have been buying phones from them for some time now, not always the lowest price(lower than LG shoppe in emall though), but the service is really good and they they look after their customers, take for example, the flipcover is supposed to be shipped to you after you buy the phone, from LG, I kept pushing that want it right then and there, so they gave me one from their retail stocks and would procure my unit from the distributor later :cyclops:
[G2 General] abhinavsg:
Lol....

I buy phones regularly from Nikkys. It's in Chandni Chowk as well and absolutely close to the e-mall. It's in the Federal Bank ATM lane opposite the Big Corner Computer Shop. If you go from Esplanade Metro towards M G Road Metro the Lane next to Emall.

Fadka seller on Flipkart

Guys, if we buy from Fadka seller on Flipkart by using Stan Chartered cashback offer the 16GB comes for 33799. Is my calculation right? and has anybody bought from this seller earlier.
[G2 General] sidthegreatest:
I feel it would be better to stick with WS Retail, as they are including a lot of freebies & have 30-day returns.
[G2 General] rkaria1970:
If Flipkart is promoting the seller, it has to have some credentials, it's a good deal currently. Better call Flipkart CC about dealer reference to be extra sure.
[G2 General] amankapoor4:
Max cashback is 5000, so best price you will get is 35,500

How?

Did you charge it in between.?
[G2 General] rastigo:
Nope.

it just happens that i charge when battery drops to 6%...charge to 100 and leave it on charde for 10 min more.... Even I cant believe but it is true brother. Stock kk exceeded my expectations. I was going to flash g3 rom. But after such stability and battery life, I continue with stock kk itself
[G2 General] SREEPRAJAY:
[MENTION=5240311]rastigo[/MENTION]

With stock kernel or dori....fd disable or enabled? Generally this is something which drains battery if fd is not supported by the network.

Do you use any xposed settings? Camera mods?ui changes? Just to understand how this is going to such great levels.

Thanks
[G2 General] rastigo:
I keep the stock kernel. I dont use any modded kernels. I never used xposed. Instead I make and use my own mods.. I use xdabbebs 2.2 zip flashable camera mod. Attaching my SystemUI....Have created it myself.....:)

What is fd...???

Attaching a picture of my SystemUI modded by me to be more kitkatized

[G2 General] rastigo:
Yeah mate

Press thanks button if I was of any help / assistance to you :)
[G2 General] SREEPRAJAY:
I am on this ROM with all the recommended things by rastigo..

Flashed it yesterday and Just the first charge....

I won't jump to any conclusion but I don't see the quantum jump yet.

As I am traveling,I am in airplane mode too.so...waiting for the miracle...let us wait and watch.

All stock and with a few xposed modules.froze a few bloatware with tb.

android system seems to be drinking a lot of juice...
[G2 General] SREEPRAJAY:
Although I am not drawing any conclusions....just a small comparison....see the attached snapshot...this was with dori kernel with pardus7.4.

I am testing this ROM and I am amassed with the battery result [MENTION=5240311]rastigo[/MENTION] posted.but I will be very very happy if this proves better than the I posted here.
[G2 General] rastigo:
I reiterate [MENTION=2731014]SREEPRAJAY[/MENTION], that I do not use any xposed modules. Xposed modules keep running in memory and they do draw power. So also the battery life experience will vary from person to person depending on what apps you use, how much time you are connected to wifi/data.

For that matter of fact the app used to measure battery performance would also draw battery resources to communicate with battery for stats. I have debloated my phone. I do not use facebook. I use whatsapp a lot...

I would be happy to know that stock gave you an experience better than a custom rom.Reason being that the stock rom was always made for that phone keeping in mind the hardware it has to handle, which is not the case with custom. So also stock kernel is devised with a basic functionality in mind and performance to be achieved. The moment uou tweak this using custom kernels, you are disturbing the original state of affairs. Results may be disastrous or better....its very subjective to comment upon.

I hope everyone uses a ROM they feel most comfortable with and select one based on your requirements ....asthetics vsperformance vs ui...

All the best... May all of us have a good time here...ciao
[G2 General] SREEPRAJAY:
I fully agree to what you said and been around here in xda for quite sometime and know a few things....

Thanks for the Fast Dormancy thing

Thanks for the Fast Dormancy thing.. I have disabled it in the hidden menu and let me see if that improves battery life.

I am currently on kikat rom unrooted and was getting around 3 to 4 hours SOT with 25 to 30 hours battery life. I am using vodafone 3g and will be on 3g for 12 hours, on wifi for 12 hours in a day and auto sync, GPS, wifi, 3g always on.

Though this is good enough for daily use but G2 with Jellybean had better battery than this hence pushing myself to get that amazing battery performance for which G2 was known for.

Hope disabling this fast dormancy has some noticeable improvement on battery life. Never the less thanks for that piece of information.

Hi All,

After getting the Nillkin Tempered Glass Protector for the front of the phone, I'm loving it!!

However, I feel the glossy back is a bit slippery plus doesn't look that good. So, was thinking of buying a vinyl skin for back. (dbrand) such as these two.

Unfortunately not able to find any which ships to India free (like Nilkin). Does anyone know a place where I can get it? (The ones I saw are far too expensive for a vinyl sticker). If not, anyone interested in a group order for these? (Shipping cost would considerably be cheaper then?)
[G2 General] mor_1228:
i will say give it 2 more charge cycle so that u can conclude better.

you are lucky.

for me dori is worst kernel when compared with stock. i have tried every version of dori and still fails to get better than stock.

[G2 General] shriom_manerker:
ive gotten about 15 hours of screen on time on a single charg.. seems impossible right ? nope, thats what LG invited. you see, our phones have this feature called gsync , where if we leave the screen on idle. the gpu wont constantly update the screen with 60 fps. itll just stop to 1. and will only update when required. so this means that if u keep the screen timeout to always on and let ur phone stay on from 100-5%, im sure ull easily get 12 hours + sot. thats pretty much how he got the result. thats the only valid explanation. but whats the point if we just keep the phone on, and notuse it ? its pointless. its a scenario similar to benchmark apps :P its based on numbers which are pretty much useless when it comes to daily usage :p

this is nice :) i get only about 4.5 hours sot :\ im on cludyflex. ill flash back stock when the ota for 4.5 or 5.0 will be out :P i cant live without slowmo recording :p you know, things bouncing, splashing , bouncing thinks look awesome in slowmo :P IYKWIM
[G2 General] SREEPRAJAY:
I am back to my backup from pardus 7.4 with dorimanx 5.5.for me this gives around six+ hours sot. This ROM gave me around five hours only...and nothing more.it is each ones usage pattern...i have around hundred+ apps and do a bit of fb and whatsapp.

Nothing against people who have shared their experiences and knowledge.

What's in a device which is a beast by itself...used as a piece which can do but only giving benchmarks...I use it my taste and my needs

But it is good to share the knowledge which we have...particularly the way if we could have a change in usage and battery consumption...

Thanks everyone.

Guys, i have managed to compile the split view mod in our 20b indian kk rom. A flashable version available here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=53768395

Try and enjoy. Let me know the outcome. Works flawlessly for me
[G2 General] Hrithan2020:
The touch performance doesn't seem to be impacted. It has fallen down a few times after that (small distances) and definitely is much more scratch resistant than your average screen protectors (not the higher quality ones, as I haven't used them for comparison. Never used screen protectors on my phones until now).

I had a paypal account, think I used that. Don't remember tbh :/..

Also, my only gripe with the protector is that it isn't edge to edge. So it's obvious that I've applied screen protector (probably because there is a slight bending at the edges which couldn't be covered by the glass?).

g2 or m8

I need to buy a phone for my wife. I was thinking of g2 again but she suggested htc m8. But shes okay with whatever I buy. So guys pl help me. Suggest which of the two would be a better option and why

I personally love my g2....coz hevent yet tried the m8
[G2 General] ndnesh:
I would recommend that you go for the HTC M8. Overall as a package it is more future proof, and HTC has really been vocal about updates too. It has already committed to getting android L onto the one series of phones within 90 days of its release. I really like that about HTC. The camera is where I am disappointed with it, but overall, in hand feel, speed of the UI, not needing any Kernel tweaks or any xposed changes, future readiness and memory card support, I recommend the M8. I have nothing negative to say about our beloved G2. I still love it. But if in the market for a new flagship and if budget is not a concern, show your wife how much you love her by getting her a M8 [emoji6][emoji1]

Edit: I would also recommend that you take her along with you to the store where she/you can make your final decision. My wife wanted to buy the HTC M7 a few months back but when we went to the store she really liked a xolo phone and didn't even consider the HTC as it felt too cold to her. I saved a ton of money and my wife was very happy!

How your wife will feel once the phone is in her hand also makes the decision for you.

Sent from my LG-D802
[G2 General] mohitgalaxy3:
