Can confirm that this is not a "draw" for a free case as it looks (to me). Got my white quickcircle case via FedEx today only a few days after registering. Really angry at myself for not waiting as I just went and spent $55 at wirelesswave to get a black one.. Hoping to sell it on Kijiji or eBay. If anyone here needs a white one, LMK asap and we can work out a nice deal for you.
[G3 General] gaganmohal:
$55?? Buddy you spent way too much. I got my black original quick circle case with wireless charging for $23 CAD.

Got white one too for free from LG. Lol
[G3 General] skiiermike:
Does the wireless charging work on the 852?
[G3 General] y2whisper:
Nope. Sucks
[G3 General] gaganmohal:
*It appears that*

the Canadian version of the G3 is based on the AT&T platform, which supports wireless charging using the PMA (Power Matters Alliance) standard for wireless charging. The confusion seems to stem from the fact that all other U.S. carriers of the product do use the Qi Wireless charging standard.

So the Canadian G3 is wireless charging compatible, but you would need to purchase a PMA charger such as a Duracell Powermat, plus an LG PMA quick circle folio case.* This case replaces the standard back cover, with a back cover that has the necessary contacts required for wireless charging. It also appears, that this accessory is not available from Canadian retailers, but can be sourced on-line.* For example, below is a link to the accessory on AT&T’s website.

http://www.att.com/cases/powermat-w...rcle-folio-case-pma-lg-g3.html#sku=sku7280328

Unfortunately the one i got is qi case which is not compatible with canadian g3 but i wont complain as i dont use wireless charging.

I got my case from here.

Hey Dude, I am getting a G3 tomorrow and haven't seen any Canadian rom versions while searching. I saw that you said it's based on the AT&T model, does that mean I can use AT&T roms on the LG G3 I'm getting in Canada? Thanks so much in advance.

D852 Group

Someone should create a group for the canadian G3 (D852/v). Right now we have only 2 or 3 "Official" forum to discuss and share news.

I suggest to create a group on Google +

. Its easier to communicate if we have questions about ROMs or Firmwares. :fingers-crossed:

From Lg G3 "the beast"
[G3 General] kjwaugh:
I gave up waiting

I have tried both bare CM12 and Validus and they are both great. No looking back - the version that our Canadian carriers will provide will just be 5.01 Lollipop - and both roms above are already 5.02 and moving fowards. I have no illusions that the carriers have made their money on us - so they will provide a small courtesy of the firmware upgrade sometime - but that will likely be it.

With talk already of a G4 and S6 we are sadly a footnote on the road of progress. I feel that this is a geat phone and it has even greater potential when up to date firmware is installed - but we are being left behind as LG and the carriers move on to the next bunch of customers. The next firmware version will be better but LG etc makes no profit there, they want sell new phones. Sorry if I am causing negative feelings, but I will remain sceptical, and taking charge of my own phone, I am happily flashing CM 12 in the next few moments.

[G3 General] brangalm:
Looks like lots of people are picking up the Tmo variant. Seems frequencies generally overlap with most of Canada's.

Just wondering if anyone has heard anything about whether the Canadian version will be unlocked? I doubt anyone would have heard anything. But I thought I'd ask. I'm in the USA for the next few days and was thinking of picking up one at Tmo. Im on telus and so unfortunately no sign of us getting it so far. Although if the others are unlockable that'd be fine.

Anyone's thoughts? Should I pick up one while I'm here ??

[G3 General] brangalm:
Just wanted to let everyone know. I ended up grabbing one from T-mobile today. I'll post some more impressions later, but so far: wow screen is nice, phone feels great in hand, and looks great. I'm coming from a Note 2 so definitely big improvement in dpi.

Lots of crapware to remove / uninstall (mind you I'm coming from stock CM so there's a lot of stuff I remove), but it's possible so far.

After turning off a lot of this LG stuff and switching to Nova launcher and ART, things are very smooth thus far. Going to try some of these other "lag tweaks" here on xda.

Haven't rooted or TWRP'd yet, but I'm hoping to try that tonight.

Just FYI for those thinking of picking this up -- as you may expect from wireless carriers, I met resistance trying to buy the phone without a contract. Went to a couple of stores. Finally, I was able to buy one, although it's pre-paid. Apparently, at least in the "corporate" stores, you can't buy a phone without any sort of plan, even prepaid. I paid $10 for a SIM, as well as $10 prepaid minutes -- this actually gets you unlimited data + text + calls for $3/day, which is 1000x better than our Canadian roaming plans anyways, so I'm going to use this for the remainder of my trip.

I should also mention that the actual price of the phone is $629.99. The cost is $599.99 if you get an "eligible" plan, which I think means you have to add a certain amount of money to your prepaid account -- lame!

Also, I was told that T-mobile will SIM unlock your phone after your prepaid is over (ie, after 3 days for me) -- for free! I'll have to verify this once my trip is over, but I don't mind paying a bit for a SIM unlock code anyways.

My S3 it's dying a slow and painful death :)

It's getting hot, burning hot, 2 minutes after i turn the screen on...

My Rogers contract ended a few months ago and i was planning to get the S5 but it was very disappointing and, it looks like the G3 it's not that good either with these overheating/brightness issues.

I guess, i'll wait a few more days and decide for myself. Probably i'll get one and take it back in a few days if i don't like it and wait until October for the Note 4 or Galaxy F or ... Z3.
[G3 General] htc fan89:
It doesnt have the premium feel in hand but its easy to use one hand since its more compact. The camera is better than the m8...but screen quality seems equal the colors on g3 don't pop like gs5...but you can change it so they do. Otherwise its not a huge step over the m8...only screen resolution ram also laser focus...
[G3 General] brangalm:
I love my phone so far. Got it all rooted and installed TWRP without much difficulty at all. Can't wait until AOSP / CM is available !

Currently I've got GMD gestures set up and disabled the soft keys at the bottom, so no wasted space at all. Despite the huge screen this phone is super comfortable to hold. Removed a whole bunch of junk with TiBu. Really there is NO lag. And battery life is great so far. Screen turned off, no WiFi, but playing music ... Doesnt even drop 1% per hr.

Really my only issue with this phone so far is some of LGs annoying software stuff. Specifically the KnockOn feature. Some may like it but I just think its gimmicky and easy to accidentally activate. Unfortunately when I disable it (which isn't easy to find!), every so often the touchscreen locks up, so annoying.

Anyways, will be interesting to see what happens Aug 1.

I'm thinking of getting the T-Mobile version from eBay. It looks like I get can it for about $802 after shipping/duties, etc.

I'd love to get wireless charging, What, if any, advantages does one have over the other?

[G3 General] brangalm:
Well the US variants (except AT&T) do support Qi, but not out of the box. You'll need to buy a back cover that supports it.

However, AT&T supports a completely different standard so you can't use Qi, period.

Flashing Stock Image

Hello, I have a question regarding flashing the stock image. So I have rooted my LG G3 (D852) and have custom recovery on it (TWRP), to get the Lollipop update over the air for the LG software, I need to flash the stock LG image and unroot my device back to factory image. I know this will remove everything and the root access and puts the recovery back to stock, but one thing I am not sure about is that if it will lock my device as well. I have the Rogers LG G3, but I have unlocked it and I am using it with Bell, would flashing the stock image lock the device back to Rogers? also would it be possible to flash the stock image for Bell? Thank you :)
[G3 General] jainanshal:
Nope, carrier locking is independent of ROM. It'll remain unlocked and you may flash Bell image if you wish so. Sometimes the radio could be different and in that case it might be better to have the ROM from carrier which you are actually using, though I'm not sure if that's usually the case with Bell & Rogers rom.. I think between these 2 just the bloatware is different.
