It has the same hardware but it has external SD and other camera so far as I know so we can actually port it over if for the e975 wouldn't come out. But if the e970 gets the update I believe e975 would get the update as well if lg will not make that decision then they will loose alot of customers. And it can get ported over to the nexus4?

The update will come

I agree with you completely and even more so on the premise that the OG is more powerful than quite a few of the devices that are currently running KK. If Samsung is updating the S3 and the OG is more powerful and capable, then I see no reason why we should not get an update.

If LG tries screwing over the OG owners it would be to the company's detriment.

I've asked LG dozen times and they always say that kitkat update will be in first half of 2014 but they don't know about models. So, if both LG and sfr are right, the update can't be much far. We should get it at most by the end of first month of summer.

[LG Optimus G (International)] exaflare:
Well my brother had xperia Z stock rom

OG and XZ had the same S4 pro chipset adreno 320

But OG had only 720p resolution so it should be faster because of much fewer pixels to push compare to XZ with full 1080p resolution

I had stuttering issues on Temple Run Oz which is I think very easy to handle by the SoC

XZ had no problems, I just visit him last week to check if his phone had the same dropped frames.
[LG Optimus G (International)] roscatel:
Have you considered android version responsable for this? Even if LG's updates are very slow, I think those are very well optimized. May be relevant if you compare JB on both phones, then I don't think you can see any difference. Btw I also play temple run oz and no lags for me.
[LG Optimus G (International)] exaflare:
Ok good for you :)

before I was on stock rom 4.1.2 then CM 11.
[LG Optimus G (International)] sunyakram:

Optimus G is one of the smoothest phones.

Let's hope LG do a good job on KK for our G.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Rishi.:
Never experienced a single lag in games in LGOG. (970).

Only visible lag was with stock app drawer of lg and I hate the stupid camera quality of this phone. But that's least of my concern as I have recently got a DLSR now. :)

Other than that its perfect.
[LG Optimus G (International)] yesiamfrozen:
yeah im wondering too, why xz have better performance the fact that same soc and xz has higher resolution 1080p vs our og 720p

theoritically, adreno 320 + 720p is better than adreno 320+ 1080p

[LG Optimus G (International)] 2nd Sky:
Lol u're diskuss about lags on same soc?!

There are so many points like cpu settings etc that brings lags

And by lg launcher: its an app bug.. but i will not say bug its a feature ;) im on stock and replaced lg home with z1 launcher. No redraws...

[LG Optimus G (International)] hurin8:
I agree, the stock launcher was laggy and I had redraws. Nova is much better!

Sent from my LG Optimus G E975
[LG Optimus G (International)] e34v8:
Hmm, that is strange. On my phone (e975) I have tried every single launcher out there and always went back to stock, 'cause it is smoother than the others (eco mode off). And I haven't had a single launcher kill due to low RAM. This is stock 4.1.2.
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
Stock is honestly pretty fast and stable, but it needs some optimisations, like "lagfix" to stay snappy.

That's one of the reason I'd like them to release KK, trim and other optimistions that keeps the device fast and snappy!

[LG Optimus G (International)] e34v8:
Btw, I have never used Chrome on my mobile phones (I use it on my PC). It's just not as fast as the stock AOSP browser. And no flash also.
[LG Optimus G (International)] TheStigOnline:
Firefox on all platforms is Me :good:
[LG Optimus G (International)] ankit360:
Sorry for letting you all off topic but i m using stock rom with chrome. I don't want to move to any other browsers them chrome. Reason behind not using stock browser is I don't feel its up to date with latest security and bug fixes can anybody know how many times stock browser update. Stock browser update only when u update ROM while chrome update at least once in a month. I don't feel confident using ucweb dolphin or many other good browser that build by Chinese developers. Also my Quad core 2gb mobile is enough to run chrome smoothly. Mozilla Firefox is good browser but it doesn't open corresponding application automatically. For example if I try to open YouTube IMDb in Chrome it automatically redirect video or link to YouTube IMDb app but in Mozilla it open in browser itself. Same thing happens to stock browser
[LG Optimus G (International)] artssa:
What do think about UC Browser (not the regular version, but the HD version)? I have been using Dolphin for almost 3 years (but testing every new well evaluated browser app) and that's the first browser that actually made me think about leaving Dolphin aside (even tough it consumes some more ram - like 20% more than Dolphin).

What are your thoughts about UC Browser HD?
[LG Optimus G (International)] guidoido004:
Xperia z and many other phones with this same soc, running stock, are smoother.

[LG Optimus G (International)] 2nd Sky:
no i dont think so ;) only lags on home launcher! thats all!
[LG Optimus G (International)] Galileo:
Not really, I have tried the Nexus 4 and it runs just so much more smoother than the Optimus G both on stock and on custom roms, why?
[LG Optimus G (International)] akahroba:
That's a bit impossible mate. Maybe the G that you tested was not in a good mood. Generally G is so faster and you can also see it in benchmarks. there's a video on youtube showing official kitkat on nexus 4 and custom kitkat on G. The comparison shows how faster our G is.
[LG Optimus G (International)] sunyakram:
Am also a x n4 user but i find G batter, smoother then n4.
[LG Optimus G (International)] 2nd Sky:
btw: nx4 must slower becaus it has display buttons ;) ^^ (just to kidding u..)

and when our G is warm, it goes on 1,1ghz.. (thermal ****) (not on gee roms, but on stock and cm!) so it could be slower and on stock, theres a power save mode...
[LG Optimus G (International)] akahroba:
Exactly. I wrote about that thermal daemon mitigation here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2700387 but no one gave it a **** :silly:

I am waiting for LG to update the phone , so that all our doubts and speculations would be proven wrong , of OG tramps every other phones with this SOC.

-----------------------

OG is one of the finest amd most refined phones I have used till date.
[LG Optimus G (International)] prog19:
I have to agree. My GF have one and I think the original Rom is cool and I see lag all. the throttling seems to affect it Les than my nexus 4. Of course I have gone custom Rom and kernel I suffer from this pain anymore
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
Well, I got a Nexus 7 and, lately, an Xperia Z1, both GUI are smooth and stable. I think Sony's UI is closer to a "Google Experience" than the LG is. Don't get me wrong, LG is still miles ahead of Samsung or HTC, but the best GUI for all android is the Google Experience. The further the UI is from, the more slow and unstable it gets.

Even more, if you compare a similar SOC, like the Xpera Z (not Z1), which has the same system, the browsing experience ends up faster on the Xperia. And the Xperia had the pleasure to get 4.2, 4.3 back in december and is planned to get 4.4 (probably before the OG gets it).

I got an Xperia Z1 mainly for 3 reasons:

-Software supports and update

-Better camera

-Waterproofing

and, so far, I can tell you that LG is out of the question for the future...
[LG Optimus G (International)] 2nd Sky:
GUI is personal... i hate AOSP Look and AOSP has no features/customisables (sorry for bad englisch)

i love lg ui and the ****ing awesome design from G, thats why i have a G ;)
[LG Optimus G (International)] wulsic:
The lg ui is pretty different of other brands like samsung thats why i like it. The lagg on the optimus g could also be of the anmount of bloatware since all brands have other apps of their own and sony doesnt have too much bloatware. I dont want to be mean or what but i think we must stay a bit on topic
[LG Optimus G (International)] sunyakram:
Agreed.
[LG Optimus G (International)] nlab:
I had xperia z before buying optimus g and it was slow as hell

Especially when browsing in chrome - not smooth and device gets uncomfortably hot
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
Well, One thing about sony, you can EXPECT them to release a bug correction! I'm pretty sure this will be fixed with the release of KK

Can't blame LG if you didn't conduct thorough research prior to modifying phone. Nothing is learnt if you blame a phone which others mod with no issues.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Galileo:
Dudeee.... my phone is fine. I have read and read. What i fear is that while im on a custom rom, lg might once again do something to prevent us from going back to stock, theyve had a ****ty attitude from the very bennining amd you know that. I am clear that they dont owe me anything, to any of us, however, we also dont have any reason to keep buying from them.
[LG Optimus G (International)] nchc:
Cant you just flash kdz to get back to original carriers stock rom then update will occur? I plan to purchase Nexus 6, but the reason i got LGOG, was because it cheaper than nexus 4 with better hardware. LG flagship phones drop in price so quick, i hope my brain is smarter than my wallet next time round.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Galileo:
The latest update to the update tool from LG prevents users from flashing KDZ files.... so yeah :/ theres a workaround usng a method from the G2 but getting it to work is a pain in the ass, sometimes it works, sometimes you have to reinstall the update tool and the drivers.

Also i though the Nexus 4 was always cheaper than the OG:/ I mean i got mine free with a contract but it usually is around $600-700 over here.
[LG Optimus G (International)] nchc:
Thanx for update re kdz.

My LGOG was $388 from a bricks and mortar store with local warranty, play store price for N4 was $400 + postage. Currently LGOG2 is $516 from store with local warranty, N5 from playstore is $450 plus postage.

The only way for LG to sell volume is to compete on price, thus smaller profit margins = less software updates. Would you pay $200 more for a flagship LG phone for say 2 android updates?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Galileo:
Well, i usually buy a phone from amazon or ebay and ask a family member to get it for me:p but yeah fpe those prices id go with the OG.

Gesendet von meinem LG-E975 mit Tapatalk
[LG Optimus G (International)] wulsic:
I think they also disabled it for the optimus g cause it actually scans the whole time for if someone knocks and then your battery will die sooner then without knock on.

I know its an nice feature but what do you want more ? A good batterylife without knockon or a bad batterylife with knockon.

And there is always an way to get knockon working if they released the kernel source after 4.4 is released.

If they will not make an release i believe that they would do it cause i had the optimus 2x and it also came late.

Else someone will port the apps like jishnu sur [emoji1] and use it in an cm11 rom with lg theme and modified status bar without the big square icons.

But sailfish os is also pretty nice on nexus 4 but for daily use. Well we don't must all focus on the news i think we must just be patient like the o2x time for lg releasing it but it should go faster cause nvidia was really an pain in the ass for lg updating and for custom roms.
