Yeah but isn't Samsung locking down the bootloaders across all carrier's now? If you think development is slow on the g3 just wait until you're on a unbelievably impossible to unlock Samsung boot loader.
[T-Mobile LG G3] stillbrad:
I too am disappointed with the development with the G3. Which is one reason for me jumping as well. Seems that all the samsung devices ive had always had strong development. But i hear you on the otherside of this. I left samsung too to try something different and like i said i love my G3. I love size of it especially. But i dont know...the note 4 does offer alot of nice features..but its not THAT much better then the G3. Im going to have to compare first hand.

[T-Mobile LG G3] fabiosantossillva:
Note 4 features a snapdragon 805 processor , which is more adequate to deal with QHD screen. LG G3 demands a lot from processor capabilities due to its high display resolution, what leads the phone to overheat. The front facing camera on new note 4 has been vastly improved. There's a sort of green tint on photos taken using LG G3 front facing camera. Screen on battery life, is pretty disappointing on LG G3 as well.
[T-Mobile LG G3] tattooboy:
You guys talking about lack of development are Crazy it takes time to do these things as soon as things get ironed out i know 2 people already working and have roms being already booted!! Just calm down and relax things are happening!
[T-Mobile LG G3] fabiosantossillva:
I'm not complaining about that.... I know nobody is being rewarded for developing Roms for our devices.... However is disappointing to see how slow this forum is, mainly due to the wrong decision made by LG of keeping locked bootloader in mostly LG G3 variants. It drives me crazy how aggressive is the camera white balance and how fast it discharges once you turn its screen on. Not mentioning how hot it gets when processing heavy tasks.
[T-Mobile LG G3] railshot:
For me it depends on weather Note 4 handles heat better than G3. If it is, I think I'll upgrade.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Erazo1986:
All the people complaining about slow development, either contribute to the development or be quiet. It is utterly ridiculous to complain about development on a device that has not even been out that long. Samsung is becoming like Apple, more of the same and less innovation. The note 4 is basically the s5 enlarged and added hardware additions minus the weather proofing.
[T-Mobile LG G3] alexandroid5:
Yea I'm sure development is going to go faster on the note 4.... Maybe as fast as the galaxy S5! Cause it only took them a few months to get CM, how dare the G3 take just as long [emoji33]
[T-Mobile LG G3] tripler6:
Look, we are looking at less than a week until CM hits the G3, stock AOSP is coming, after that it's just a matter of time before all sorts of stuff starts hitting.. people who think there is slow development aren't paying attention..
[T-Mobile LG G3] chrisjm00:
The devs develop for phones in their spare time, for free, without asking for much in return. The G3 has been out for not even two months yet so did you really expect there to be the same level of options available as phones that have been out MUCH longer?

Two things to consider.

1. The other variants are locked down. This limits development for the T-Mobile variant because let's be frank; devs are devoting their time to unlocking the other G3's instead of focusing on one variant.

2. The G3 will have CyanogenMod available probably within the week. That is awesome. So people ARE working on developing for the phones. If you're unhappy with the speed of the development, why don't you read up on how to develop for Android, and make your own ROM.

This is the same story that follows almost every device with the exception of Nexus devices. Phone gets released, time is taken to root and unlock bootloader. People are patient through this process. As soon as the bootloader is unlocked, people are *****ing about not having a flawless ROM within a day. Complaints start flowing in about how development is slow and there is no one working on anything. There is another phone coming out within a few weeks to a month, and those same people *****ing jump ship to that phone once it comes out. Give it a month, and then they start the process all over again on that device while posting things along the lines of "Should have kept 'X' or 'Y' phone, development for this phone sucks!" The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

TLDR; stop your *****ing and learn to develop for the G3 if you're unhappy with the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] BACARDILIMON:
When the note 3 first came out by week 2 we had 2 kernels and about 3-5 Roms so yes this phone does lack development. I am greatful to the 2-3 devs that are working on it but this phone just does not have the following. It is what it is.

AWESOME G3
[T-Mobile LG G3] aaanadie:
Handling Overheat

Some folks are talking about poor overheat handling in our G3 but is just a minor issue. I have set a profile for that on SetCPU:

Turn this profile on when...

Any of these are true...

Battery <= 30%

Battery >= 41 C

Set the CPU speed

300-300

Priority: 100

My G3 never overheats now.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Cablespider:
IB4 someone tells you, you're wrong and have no right to that opinion. GTFO and all that jazz! Sheesh!
[T-Mobile LG G3] BACARDILIMON:
That the great thing everyone can have an opinion. I never take anything in offense so it all good.

AWESOME G3
[T-Mobile LG G3] mgbotoe:
You are forgetting thats before sammy got cute with the bootloader. Roms were out for the note 2 in weeks, same for s4, took a bit longer on the note 3, far longer on the s5...I can only imagine where the note 4 going to be. For our development hunger, i hope not as long as the g3 ..i mean who dont want pages, upon pages of roms and kernels for a phone that have been out for almost two months with lock bootloaders.

This is the problem with tmobile. US has the least amount of talented developers, especially for tmobile because 99% are busy whining, complaining, and throwing antsy fit about the lack of development. the 1% that DO something are not recognize. smh. Spend more time learning how to develop, less time complaining maybe...just MAYBE development will get far.

P.S that second paragraph isn't pertaining to the quoted individual.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aclegg2011:
Thered probably be more development if all but the tmobile g3s didnt have locked bootloaders. Im sure that its not too hard to convert the roms available for the other g3s. I guess comming from a nokia windows phone where not much development has happened, the devlopment here has been pretty quick to me. Just have to be patient.
[T-Mobile LG G3] velasco3m:
I've been a Samsung fan for a long time now, but I recently got my LG G3 and doubt I'll be parting with it anytime soon. at least not until the G4 comes out :)
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
Blah blah blah is all I'm reading when you still didn't answer the question

Yes the note 4 will be locked down too just like all the other Samsung phones.

---------- Post added at 07:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 PM ----------

I had the note 3 good phone but you can't not over look the fact that you know Samsung will lock the holy bat**** out of the phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Yeah people really need to realize that Samsung no longer cares about developers whatsoever. They have eyes for big businesses and government now so if a locked boot loader is what they need to do to be on par for security they will do it. Besides most people do not even root there phone not to mention install aosp.
[T-Mobile LG G3] fabiosantossillva:
It will be easily unlockable though, like all samsung phones. Developers will come up with a bootloader unlocking solution sooner that you expect.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Just wait and see I would be surprised if any of Samsung's flagship phones will be unlockable with this next generation. When they want to lock it down they can make it virtually impossible to unlock just ask any Verizon owner.
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
I hope your right but don't be surprised if it takes longer or not at all then your right back in the same boat you are now
[T-Mobile LG G3] fabiosantossillva:
My carrier is t-mobile....usually its phones are sold with unlocked bootloader. My G3 has an unlocked bootloader as all community members know. The problem is the low adherence of people to LG Phones, which are not as popular as samsung phones.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bamfsig45:
Maybe you should just jump ship right now, seeing how much you hate this phone, and how much it over heats, and lags, and reboots and how crappy the processor is....

I dont have any problems with my G3. It doesnt over heat, or reboot, no lag. Running Zone Rom and G3 Tweakbox. Love it.

And thats a shame if its true that Sammy Phones will be Locked down even on Tmo.
[T-Mobile LG G3] fabiosantossillva:
I'm running the same rom on my phone, and most likely , you are one of the few lucky LG G3 owners who don't have any complaint about this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
note 4 will have a unlocked bootlaoder on tmobile but YET you fall back in to the same problem

Verizon will be locked At&T's will be locked Sprints will be locked internationals will be locked ( i think ) :confused:

[T-Mobile LG G3] fix-this!:
No more samscum in my home. Sold my wifes s4 to tmob for $120 and got the 32gb g3. Passed my g2 on to her. Couldnt pass up the g3 offer. Got a 32gb sd card, case and lcd protector for a good price. Plus ill get the battery cradle and extra battery from lg. All in all im one happy camper.
[T-Mobile LG G3] fabiosantossillva:
Maybe I'm too picky.... I owned an iPhone 5s before the LG G3, and it barely got warm. I have to tell you...Although Apple' s operating system is too closed and its products hardware don't feature high-top specs, the company programs very well its software in order to offer the best user experience to its customers

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 PM ----------

Undoubtedly , the HTC M8 is a beast among the flagship phones. I owned one just a couple of days after released. I ended up returning it due to its low camera resolution . The photos taken with M8 suffer from pink tint on highlights, what is pretty disappointing. Not mentioning its lacking of details and sharpening on photos.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
The camera on the m8 was the big push for me to just wait for the g3. Honestly I would have got the m8 if the camera wasn't so crappy. My roommates video recordings on the m8 look like its from the 90's. I can record better videos with my droid x.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bamfsig45:
You know the iPhone 6 is announced tomorrow? That might be your better choice. :cool:

[T-Mobile LG G3] Upstreammiami:
People say slow but the g3 got aosp way faster than the note 3 and we only have unlocked bootloader for tmobile imagine when everyone else does
[T-Mobile LG G3] tykalx:
that and the screen real estate, the htc logo in the bottom took up too much space, love the g3 thin bezel and lg did right with their logo placement, i get why htc did it, but the camera and space were issues.
[T-Mobile LG G3] mingkee:
I may not go back to Note even it will have band 12.
[T-Mobile LG G3] railshot:
It's not the software. It's misdesigned hardware. Phone manufacturers have entered a spec/feature war, and Korean ones are the worst in thinking that the more the better. You can see it in all the gimmicky software features that no one ever uses. In case of LG G3, the culprit is the screen resolution. They absolutely had to beat other phones in that regard. Forget the fact that in other phones it was already high enough to not be able to tell the difference. Forget about the fact that this 5.5 inch phone has higher resolution than your typical 21" computer monitor. So they designed a phone with a uselessly high resolution screen. The payment for this is the higher cost of the phone, and the fact that it becomes unusable under heavy load.

---------- Post added at 11:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------

Have you tried using GPS while charging the phone for longer than 15 minutes?
[T-Mobile LG G3] bamfsig45:
No. Haven't had the need. I still doubt I'd have issues. This phones been flawless. I just think there are people out there that find the fault in everything, never happy.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aaanadie:
I used GPS more than 1:30 h plugged phone in car charger and it did not overheat (intelliactive, 300-1.267, -60mv).
[T-Mobile LG G3] railshot:
I had no complaints about my previous phone (s3), so no, I am not whining for the sake of it. And yes G3's heat issues are a minor annoyance in most of everyday tasks. However, I drive a lot in an area with heavy traffic. So using a GPS app with live traffic information is a must for me. Unfortunately, G3 is unusable for that. I am pretty sure you'd have the same result if you bothered to try.

So for me this means that I will lose a few hundred dollars switching to a phone that manages to function all the time, not just when the load is light.
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
Yes used GPS for 2 hours no reboots or over heats
[T-Mobile LG G3] railshot:
My attempts were made with stock config without a governor. Thank you for the tip. I'll give it a shot. Maybe I can salvage this phone yet :).
[T-Mobile LG G3] deadkenny64:
I use Waze commuting to and from work with the screen at 80%+ and while it does get quite warm, it's never overheated. Even on the back porch in 90 degree heat I've yet to have an issue. I also love the fact that some nights I still have 50% battery. My N5 never made it past 5:00 pm without a charge.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wavrunrx:
ill be selling this phone ASAP.

LG; NEVER AGAIN !
[T-Mobile LG G3] saxophone101:
Well, you are not the only one, I'm also passionate about the latest and the greatest and I have till next Monday 9/15 to decide whether or not return the LG G3 and then wait for the Note 4 (my wife got my Note 3 too). I like the G3 a lot......decisions...decisions...
[T-Mobile LG G3] KING SKILLZ:
this^.

i upgraded from the samsung S2 up to the S4 before the same design inevitably wore on me, switched to the N5 and loved the development and the look of the device but missed the interchangeable battery and increase storage through sdcard. the design of the edge is somewhat new and different and that alone may attract developers to it, but this is the same theory i used in my decision to get the G3. So i think i'm gonna see how development goes with the edge before pulling the trigger this time. don't understand why people get so riled up if a person feels it is not enough development to their personal taste, as long as they are not attacking any developers who the f**k cares! that FanBoy s**t is wack to me, i buy what i like, need and think development will go.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ReggieTee:
I'm getting the Note 4 but since I love the G3 so much, not trading it in. Going to pay it off in a week or two and just get the Note 4 when it comes out. Been back on Tmo for a month and i've missed being able to have two different phones and just swapping the sim out when I want to carry the other phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sabresfan:
Im not sure the bootloader will be unlocked like the tmobile g3. Add in Samsung knox counter and im more than happy with my g3. I upgraded from the note 2.
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
That Knox counter sucks good thing mobile doesn't really care about it I handed my note 3 in fully rooted and and a custom rom
[T-Mobile LG G3] ngray13:
I will be keeping my LG G3

Although the Note 4 comes with a ton of sweet features and awesome hardware, the LG G3 is still brand new. I don't see the point of trading in a new phone for another new phone especially when an unofficial build of Cyanogenmod is right around the corner for the G3.
[T-Mobile LG G3] fix-this!:
the note 4 isn't worth any upgrade. i boycotted sammy long ago.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bkeaver:
Used GPS for 4 hours and streamed music. No overheat or reboot issues here
[T-Mobile LG G3] hello00:
not much of an upgrade coming from the g3..touchwiz sucks major balls..waiting for the nexus x/6
[T-Mobile LG G3] sabresfan:
Once there is a stable aosp rom there isn't anything else I could ask for. Great harware, unlocked bootloader (thanks tmo) sim unlocked and almost every mod that makes rooting/roming worth it already working makes me glad i left Samsung.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ReggieTee:
Gotta backtrack on this. I'm trading this in and getting either the Note 4 or iPhone 6+. I've never owned either although i've had the S2, S3, and S4. I've realized the past couple days the G3 battery isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's great on standby. As soon as you start using the phone, the screen sucks away at the battery. Yesterday it stayed at 100% for the hour and a half I was at church. I still ony got 13 hours out of it after that with about 3hrs screen time. This was all wifi. I like the G3 but not in love with it after a month.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sweets55:
I doubt the iPhone 6 battery life is any better then the G3 battery. 13 hrs is good. Imo. At times I turn the brightness down on my G3. That helps a lot plus the Zone Rom has battery tweaks. If your battery life started good and not so good now it's probably a app draining it.

I have a Jump to use and pretty sure I'll be passing on the Note 4 and iPhone 6. The only reason I thought about getting either one of those phones is because I've had the LG G2/Flex and G3 so I wanted to change things up. I just feel like I might regret it since I like my G3 so much.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ReggieTee:
Part of the iPhone intrigue is the fact that I've never owned one.

[T-Mobile LG G3] sweets55:
That's cool. I tried one years ago on AT&T and liked it but at the time didn't think it was worth it as far as the plan plus it was small. The cost of the phone is also a issue but I guess not a big one since I'll use Jump in 6 months. I just wish the iPhone specs were better. It's easy get sucked in by Apple though. LoL
[T-Mobile LG G3] ReggieTee:
Yeah I have a MacBook. I'll probably get an iPad soon because it consistently is the best tablet available and Apple updates their software. iPhone is just a thought. I do think think it would last. Probably will be Note 4.

The radio is seperate and realizes a lesser radio capability is what I am reading. I skipped the g3 cat 6 with the 805 o er this complaint...that and its hardly an upgrade.

The 808 / 810 are the real leap forward to 64 bit os. Unless the nexus 6 is something really special, Ill wait for cm on the g3 and wait a cycle.

I use GPS a lot on all the phones I've owned. I've not had the G2, M7, Nexus 5 or G3 overheat while using GPS and I have full a/c charging going on, the phone actually stays at 100% charged while GPS is guiding me about the country. Now, I don't game on my phones so I don't know the impact there while charging.
