Stupid spell checker!! Sorry, I meant 10h
[G3 General] kinnyfaifai:
I've been lucky, I had 10a to start with, used towelroot v3 to root, and have had no problems getting OTA's. Maybe try going back to 10a and use towelroot if you haven't ready done that.

I've been checking everyday hoping for 10j, no luck though.
[G3 General] AndroidInsanity:
Can someome provide a link to 10H ? Currently have 10g , will 10H work fine with UK model? 16gb? Anyone know what it actually improves?
[G3 General] jah:
Snappier performance and improved battery life is what I noticed. I have an international one not one from a UK retailer which probably explains why I've had the H version of the firmware.
[G3 General] AndroidInsanity:
In rooted on 10g if i plug my phone in to update will i brick my phone? Thanks
[G3 General] p70shooter:
No, will be fine.
[G3 General] AndroidInsanity:
Thanks. Anyone tested fifa 14 on the g3? Cant find it in play store :(
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Haven't tried but you will probably be able to Google it and sideload the apk.
[G3 General] labpedro:
stupid question......i rooted my g3 earlier then found that the pingit app and barclays banking app no longer worked so i flashed it back to 10a, however now when i try and update the firmware ota i get a message saying no update available and giving the error 0x1111004. i am guessing the version i have flashed isnt a uk variant as there are a few different three programs in it that appear to be either italian or german....anyone know if its possible to get a standard three 10a firmware to apply?

cheers

update: So, the version i updated to was UK 16G D85510A_00.kdz, and having now just flashed a new rom as D85510g_00.kdz it appears to be all fine now (i dont mind the three logo on the phone - weird eh, although its a good reminder that i am no longer stuck with orange :))
[G3 General] denny1970:
When playing music though my earphones I don't think it's very Loud I'm using power amp not making a big difference... I have this phone lol anyone wanna swap for it lol
[G3 General] labpedro:
have you gone past the 75% warning message (it pops up warning you over the loudness, damage ears, blah blah)? i listen using some over ear headphones and up to 75% its plenty loud, over 75% its too loud at full tilt
[G3 General] maschenazi:
Unbranded UK version G3, just received the V10h OTA update. Kept root after update.
[G3 General] Spewy1:
Just got my update. Knock on pocket problem appears to have been solved.
[G3 General] maschenazi:
That sounds great ! That problem was a pain in the pocket :) . I have been using the LG keyboard again for the last 15 minutes and it seems they fixed the terrible lag as well. I have switched to Google keyboard for a while, but I'm going to give the native one another chance. I also had the issue with camera crashing if you were zooming while recording video. I have only tried it twice, but that problem seems to have been sorted as well.

The G3 is slowly but surely becoming what it should have been when it was launched.
[G3 General] Quinnaay:
Someone is offering me a 16gb one of these for my Oneplus One. I'm very tempted being as though it's the more expensive phone etc but the battery life worrys me. What should I look out for? Can someone break down the pros and cons of this device without being biased? Can you root all UK models?
[G3 General] radicalisto:
I'm about to do the opposite and swap for an OPO.

Battery on the G3 is fine, I get two days with moderate/heavy use. - UK model D855 can be rooted yes, purpledrake roots without issue.

Pros - so many.

Cons - locked bootloader currently so not many options.
[G3 General] Quinnaay:
Interesting, why you wanting to swap for the OPO I must admit freedom, customisation, speed and battery life is awesome on my OPO. I just feel the price of it will drop now people know about a few flaws.
[G3 General] radicalisto:
Just fancy the change, I quite like the OPO (friend has one and got to try it) It'll probably be the device I settle with for a while. Ordered one this morning.
[G3 General] DT39:
Checked this morning and got ota update 10h on cpw uk sim free version.

To be honest my g3 was quite good on 10g with art enabled, so we will see how this is when settled.☺
[G3 General] SamDH1:
Just got my update for h too, but only OTA not through the Suite
[G3 General] adamelphick:
Nothing here. On Three but phone is 32gb unbranded.
[G3 General] GTCC:
I have both the OPO and the G3 and the OPO is smoother and faster but I still prefer the G3 for the much better screen and in hand feel. I am going to sell my OPO before the value drops even more.

Another reason to place the G3 over the OPO is the warranty which as far as I can tell is non-existent.
[G3 General] Quinnaay:
2 years warranty but there service is extremely poor. However I would be swapping my OPO for a G3 to a stranger who has it on contract. Potentially a dangerous move. He offered G3 and £20 for my OPO and me to collect from his house. So id have no warranty on the G3. To be honest I'm going to get a Nexus 6, just wanted to keep resale value to put towards one.
[G3 General] phillevy:
O2 D855 - just got OTA for version j - updated and kept root intact. Slight panic on first boot as it lost my SD card, however a reboot sorted this:)
[G3 General] jah:
Wow. Have SIM free International version for Europe and still on version H.
[G3 General] marvi0:
Hello, what modem are you guys in the UK on?. Am on the latest software v10h, and getting masive signal drops?. What can be done can we flash a modem to resolve?
[G3 General] phillevy:
Yes - my wife has the same and just got updated to h (makes me think h and j are the same as the changelog was identical)
[G3 General] 573W1E:
Yeah, I'm with jah here. My SIM Free UK version (2GB) has only just got H....
[G3 General] dex.:
if you are rooted try viper4android fx.

mainly installed it so Bluetooth streamed music in my car sounds half decent and at a reasonable volume.
[G3 General] adamelphick:
Just got the H upgrade out of the blue - installed fine - let's see what it does.....
[G3 General] marvi0:
Anyone please, I jus can't stand the data disconnections so so annoying..
[G3 General] gsw5700:
I think there is only 1 modem, I've had the same for the last 3 upgrades. My signal on the 3 network (UK) is fine. I have fast dormancy enabled
[G3 General] 573W1E:
Yeah, taking my phone out pocket to find "no signal" and then having to wait for data to return is getting tiring. If its any help, the baseband version on my 16GB UK D855 is:

MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13-00009-M8974AAAAANPZM-1
[G3 General] gsw5700:
Same as my version, is your signal ok in other areas or just dodgy where you are? Who is your phone provider? Have you tried the signal app, tells you what phone mast you are using, distance away etc
[G3 General] mjb152:
In on o2 and running 10j, same issues with signal strength that I've always had. Think I'll get my s2 out and see if that responds in the same way
[G3 General] 573W1E:
I'm using Three at the moment but I'm not too sure if the poor signal is down to my G3 or Three as I had only just switched from GiffGaff (who had a pretty strong signal in my house and area) about a month or so earlier, so as I have been changing phones (from a One M7) and networks around the same time, I'm not sure how strong Three should be in my house (it seems pretty weak, but hey now I have LTE). One thing that defo didn't happen on my One M7 on both GiffGaff and Three was the signal and data completely dropping when I put it in my pocket, that is defo something up with the G3.
[G3 General] gsw5700:
Try using network signal info app. This plots your signal strength so you can see if it drops when you put the phone in your pocket. It can also show you on a map how far the mast is, let us know the outcome
[G3 General] shadders:
It seems odd that O2 has released the 10J update, but my sim-free european G3 hasn't received it yet. Since when have carriers been faster than sim free! haha.

Has anyone else received the 10J on their european g3?
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Nope I'm still on h!
[G3 General] shadders:
Yeah I'm on H too. A bit frustrating because I haven't rooted yet and I want to root, but it's probably best to wait for the 10J update to land first because otherwise I will have to unroot to get the update.

If o2 has been able to release, why haven't LG released it to us? Because surely a non-carrier device needs less work to update than a carrier one.
[G3 General] 573W1E:
Maybe the O2 10J update just contains O2 specific fixes and such for network performance or something? What is the 10J update supposed to bring/fix?
[G3 General] shadders:
I don't think that 10J is O2 specific. I previously saw that an unreleased/unfinished version of 10J was floating around on XDA and users have loaded it onto their phones- apparently battery life is improved under 10J and I'm not sure what else.
[G3 General] p70shooter:
I would just root it :p You might be lucky as well, lots have people have updated and kept root. Not me tho but if you use pc suite and restore upgrade errors it isn't really much hassle.
[G3 General] shadders:
which method did you use to root? I think I'll use towelroot.

And the actual process of un-rooting doesn't seem too bad, but doesn't the process actually undo all the modifications you made after rooting the phone? I.e don't you lose any xposed modules you installed, bloatware you removed comes back etc etc??

So whilst actually un-rooting doesn't seem too bad- the fact that you have to start from scratch seems like a major hassle?
[G3 General] p70shooter:
You can try towel root but not sure if it will work on h, stump root does work and is just as easy as towel root. Using pc suite and restore upgrade errors it doesn't wipe anything so everything is still there. Yes you will have to reroot and activate xposed again but that is it. I was surprised how painless it was :)
[G3 General] shadders:
ah thanks for the advice. I've never rooted before so I need something simple, so I'm glad that stump root will work if towel root does not. And I've never actually used xposed but I plan to- when you say you have to 'activate' it again, does all your previous settings come back after you activate it? E.g. I plan on using G3 tweaksbox to tweak my device- after unrooting will I lose all of the tweaks and have to start again? thanks for the help!
[G3 General] p70shooter:
No worries. Both towel and stump are easy so you will be fine :) Any questions just ask. Yep all your settings will be there still so activate xposed and reboot and it will be back to how it was. After you have rerooted that is.

3Gb version in UK

Hi all,

Just about to get the LG G3 and wondered if/how people were getting the non-UK version with 32GB and 3GB RAM?

I'd obviously like to get the better version, but was wondering about guarantees, etc...

Who's got what version and where did you get it?

Thanks!
[G3 General] GTCC:
Can I ask something, if I use stump root and xposed and then I have a problem with my phone and it needs to be sent back to LG can I easily change the phone back to stock so that LG can't tell that it was ever rooted?

I have never rooted a phone before and I am completely new to all this. Is LG pc suite the same as Nokia suite where if you have a problem with your phone you can just plug your phone into it via your pc and it will completely wipe and restore your software to stock?

Thanks
[G3 General] p70shooter:
No you can't ask ? Yep you can easily make it stock and LG will never now. With PC suite you can restore upgrade errors so it will be unrooted and then factory reset so all your phone will be clean and back to new. There is another way as well using the LG flashtool you can just flash the stock rom again and then you guessed it all wiped and back to stock. I havent used the flashtool but it sounds simple enough.

Don't know if LG is the same as Nokia but from my experience with it it doesn't wipe the phone but will restore it too stock but without losing all your apps. Like I said above tho just restore upgrade errors and then factory reset, job done :)
[G3 General] labpedro:
I rooted my device a couple of weeks ago, but flashed it back to stock when the Barclays apps didn't work. I used the flash tool, was really quite straightforward
[G3 General] GTCC:
In that case I will have a go at rooting my G3 later, thanks for the information. I guess it will be another late night fiddling with all the settings.
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Good luck but you will be fine. Lots for you to download and play with. Xposed and g3 tweaksbox will keep you busy for a while :)
[G3 General] jah:
Buy from Amazon Germany and you should be covered by European warranty. I managed to register my D855 International version which is the 32gb version with LG UK.
[G3 General] GTCC:
Well that when well, not. Done everything as stated in the youtube video and when I installed SuperSU app and tried to open it it is saying that 'there is no binary installed and supers cannot install it. This is a problem' It then goes on to tell me that if I have upgraded to android 4.3 I need to manually re root.

Now what do I do?

Edit

Turns out I needed to go back into the Stumproot app and hit grind again and this time it needed to root by brute force and all is well now and I'm rooted.

Thanks for your help.
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Good news ☺
[G3 General] GTCC:
I was told by LG UK that if I bought a G3 from another country that the phone would have to go back to that country for warranty work if needed.
[G3 General] jah:
Okay. I'll check tomorrow and see why they accepted my imei for UK product registration.
[G3 General] GTCC:
I just edited the post, for some reason I needed to go back into the Stumproot app and do it again by brute force. All is well now and thanks again for your help, it really is much appreciated.

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

One other thing, what is the best way forward now, is tweeksbox the best way to go? Can I get it without using my pc at home? Can I leave my phone running art, I know xposed wont work with art.

Okay so that was more than one thing, sorry.

Edit, just realized I need xposed to get tweaksbox so I'm going back to dalvak now.
[G3 General] shadders:
Did you lose any data after using Stumproot? Or does it not affect data?
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Doesn't effect data.
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Xposed and tweaksbox is a must for me. I also would delete all the bloat apps that I don't use. I use titanium backup for that.
[G3 General] GTCC:
No data loss.

---------- Post added at 12:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

3am I was up to this morning :silly: It took me nearly an hour to figure out that I needed to go into the phones settings to remove the battery percentage number :rolleyes:

Is there any list of the apps that are not needed for me to guided by?
[G3 General] jah:
You are right. LG UK will only cover UK models under warranty and that means not the international D855 with 32gb of memory from Germany.
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Nice early night tonight then :p It is worth it tho. There is a list someone on xda but I've looked for it and I can't find it. Will have another look tho.

For those who ordered from Valuebasket.com... did you receive your phones?
[G3 General] gsw5700:
I ordered my g3 from valuebasket when it first came out as they had the 3gb model. Eventually got a refund as they never shipped after waiting for about 20 days. Ordered 3gb from handtec and it arrived the next day. I do not recommend using value basket, plus warranty claims would be a nightmare
[G3 General] adamelphick:
Got my 32gb from Handtec too. Very friendly and helpful... Quick too!
[G3 General] gsw5700:
Does anyone recommend a newer firmware than v10h-eur ?
[G3 General] jhericurls:
10h is the latest European firmware. 10i was also released around the same time, which the same as 10h but for a different region.
[G3 General] elspanish88:
Hi guys UK G3 user here, just thought I'd stop by and say hello...

How are we all liking the G3? I've come from a nexus 5 and a flashaholic background and am a little peeved about the bootloader, to be fair I knew before I got it, but didn't think it'd bother me as much as it is haha :/
[G3 General] freaked9:
Hy G3 UK owners! We would really appreciate that someone on the Vodafone network could share the KDZ link of the latest "K" update :)

The IMEI based download link is there if you need it: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=
[G3 General] cadguy:
Is that true? Can you identify your source of that information?
[G3 General] 3dawg:
I'm currently on V10g and searching for an update does nothing. I got the phone on contract with 3, am I alright to flash V10i/V10h over it? Are there any major differences to speak of? Not sure I can be arsed unrooting etc.
[G3 General] UK-Sense:
Hi Guys

New owner here, just picked up my G3 from the Carphonewarehouse. Really pleased with it so far but the LG crap has got to come off. Will be reading all the threads on here for info. I came from a Nexus 4 and the G3 is better in my view. Just hope it plays nice with my Ford Sync or its back to the shop for an exchange to a Xperia Z2.

EDIT:

is this a good card to buy for the phone ??? SANDISK
[G3 General] MalekoUK:
Yep, great card! Sandisk do brilliant memory cards.
[G3 General] elspanish88:
I'm on Vodafone what do I need to do... I'm not a complete noob rooted and flashed loads of different models before but I'm just not 100% what a KDZ is
[G3 General] ChrisM75:
Copy the link above but add your IMEI number to the end (after the =). Get your IMEI by dialing *#06#

It should take you to a page that tells you your latest version number and a download link. If its D85510K_ let us know

Hey everyone, I've got the G3 from three and had it since it's first week or so. After having a few issues with adds and poor battery i triedto dto root it yesterday with stump and towel root but nothing worked . I keep getting the message unsupported device. And Mcafee that comes pre installed, keeps saying towelroot is a virus. Has anyone got an idea on what i shluld do? I've done every single OTA updates so far.

Ok i have been having a weird glitch, well two. Music starts randomly and proper scared me, i was on my own and boom the phone decides to play loud music. And the second one, i notice for 2 days in a row the snooze doesn't snooze anymore. It says it's going to but never ring and i get for example alarm set for 07.20am and it 0730 and it never went off a second time. Anyway, has anyone got any idea? Th alarm does work just doesn't ring when adked to snooze. Could juice defender or themer be the problem?

Ok seems like the snooze problem was fixed, i deleted themer. But the music still plays music randomly. And I can only pause not actually stop it. Any idea?

I flashed my Three UK G3 with the V10L firmware from the other thread, big mistake. It made my bluetooth very unstable in the car, Three's InTouch app no longer worked and I had several lockups that needed a battery pull. Hopefully it will be sorted before the Three UK models get it officially.

[G3 General] kazgor:
Hi all,

I am almost tempted by the G3, looks a nice phone.. but i dont want the official 16GB UK model.. rather get the 32GB version.

Handtec.co.uk and other Internet site do sell the 32GB version but these are the EU version. UK LG will not cover these under uk warranty though :(

How have people found the EU version, any known issue connecting to UK 3G/4G providers?

Thanks
[G3 General] adamelphick:
I bought from Handtec and it works just fine. I think there could be an argument put that a warranty is cross European by law....

Hi was brand new. I bought from them as i have had good service before. It was cheaper than Amazon and had UK delivery so no import duty. Also was the only place that had the gold one in stock on launch week.

[G3 General] c0mmando:
Hi guys. Recently my mate purchased this device for a bargain (£100) and everything was supposed to be fine, however it obviously couldn't be true. He's an elder gentleman therefore he doesn't know much about smartphones. He told me to take a look at it because since he's put a wrong password or something kill switch comes up and asks for the antivirus password. Obviously hes had no idea what it was and from what he told me he can't contact the seller either. So heres my question guys, is there any Dev out there who knows magic and can bypass the kill switch? Since supposedly its a security measure right? Haha cheers, and apologies for a long post. Also if in a wrong section, apologies.
[G3 General] hwong96:
If it is a legit purchase, just click on the antivirus "forgot my password" button and he will get a reset password via email.
[G3 General] c0mmando:
I dont think it was (No receipt). Is there no other way around it ?
[G3 General] hwong96:
Stolen phone ? SOL. Otherwise contact antivirus maker and ask them if they have a reset code. Without proof of purchase/ownership, hard to unlock.
