[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelson1130:
I forgot that, sometimes, when you have an aosp rom (doesn't matter which one), the g3 "dies" temporaryly and the only way to turn it on is taking the battery out. That happened even when I had a G2. I suspect that LG has something weird on his phones, or I only bought some screwed phones :v

Portuguese here too and proud owner of a G3. I would totally recommend it. The development has slowed a little but im guessing will boost when M comes out. Also this isnt the only place where you have custom stock roms, many modders and devs are still getting busy with custom stock (check htcmania for example). My phone does not get very hot and out of the box performance is very good. Even better with a custom stock and kernel. You have my vote. And cm13 aside from picture quality is a boost!! Faster than cm12 (no frame drops and sluggish multitask). You have my vote for sure!

G3 or Nexus 5?

Hello, I've lost my old device (Moto G), and now I need a new one. As a poor student, I'm looking for a powerful but cheap device - simple the best price/performance ratio. This one (32GB, 3GB RAM) costs almost the same as 32GB Nexus 5. Which one would you guys recommend?

I'm liking the display on G3, and I'd like to see laser auto focus in action. The IR blaster also interests me a lot. 3GB RAM is very tempting, too. However, the LG's UI is... ugh. I don't think I would be patient enough to stay on stock. I love AOSP with Xposed (or CM). But with AOSP or CM, I would lose the fast laser auto focus and camera quality would be worse. How about the IR blaster, does it work on CM or AOSP (AOSP-based) ROMs? I've already started reading through threads here to decide which phone I should buy. CM13 seems to work very well (it actually was working well even on my lost Moto G). But again, what about all the extra features? Because these extra features (laser auto focus, IR blaster) are the main reasons which make me want this phone. Without them, it would be almost the same as Nexus 5, just with 1GB less RAM, more battery-hungry display, and not perfect ROM development and less support.

My second option is Nexus 5. Some people warned me about bad build quality. But it's on vanilla Android, and that's something that is really hard to resist. ROM development for Nexus 5 is also perfect, it could see at least one more major Android update (despite being more than two years old).

I'm having a really hard time deciding. Can you guys please help me? At least share your experience and thoughts.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ariano Ângelo:
I'd go for the LG G3. Why? Because Nexus 5 have a poor battery, camera and internal storage when compared to the LG G3.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papaluigi:
Would be my advise as well. With the upcoming MM OTA there is pretty much nothing you're lacking buying the G3. And if you are impatient the CM13 nightlies are getting more and more stable already. Not to mention the pretty crisp QHD screen of the G3.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxlord:
None of the newer chipsets are worth an upgrade over the 801. The 808 and 810 are stock Arm architecture and offer little advantages and features over the 801. Getting an innexpensive G3 is a much better idea than getting the expensive G4 or V10, those will be forgotten fast once the Snapdragon 820 chipsets are out.

The G3 has an SDCard slot and you can install Xposed ...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dornz:
True?that. I have my g3 a year and half and its a great phone. 3gigs of ram is great to. nice and fast. Just flashed v20c 5.0 stock KDZ and got 3 updates. Its on v21a now so lets hope next update next week is. android M. I whould recommend this phone to anyone. Now looking at LG v10 myself the specs are insane but with M around the corner will wait to see specs on LG G5. ☺

But does the V10 and Oppo (?) have removable batteries like the G3? Removable batteries, as well as micro SDXC support, is very important for me, besides 5.5-in phablet size screen since I want a tablet with removable battery, which doesn't exist (I don't mind if the phone has no cellphone function ;)).

Buy a G3 and flash CM 13 from their site and BOOM you have a way faster << nexus >> device than the nexus 5 ?

Envoyé de mon LG-D852 avec XDA Forums Pro.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mevolent:
Of course it's faster than the Nexus 5. But it sure as heck ain't faster than the 5X. AOSP is best kept on Sony devices as they have amazing support and are all for community development on their devices. However, if you want tma pure Android experience, just go with the 5X or 6P.

When you flash an AOSP, you miss out on several key features of the G3; namely the camera's quality.

(insert witty signature here...)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaqB:
Read my friend. The OP says that he want a cheap device and the 5x is anything else but cheap. Of course the 5x is way faster than the g3, the 5x is a 2 month old device and the g3 a one year and a half. I was comparing the g3 with the nexus 5 2013 edition. In my own opinion , I think all the camera features are kind of useless. I just want a sharp camera with auto focus and the LG g3 hardware for that is perfect for that even in AOSP ROMs. I don't know about Sony devices , never got one and honestly I don't like their squarish design for their devices .

In matter of fact , the AOSP support for this device is amazing I mean most of all custom AOSP ROM are here and CM 13 came immediately after the first batch of devices who having being supported (LG g4 , nexus.7 , LG g pad, galaxy tab , moto x )

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mevolent:
LG aren't so great when it comes to AOSP support. Or at least they aren't as hands on as Sony, for example.

And if you read the first few posts, I made similar suggestions, that of Sony and the G4.

The camera is the main selling point of the phone, why you would sacrifice it for an AOSP ROM you wouldn't have had to make any sacrifice for on a Nexus or a Sony is beyond me.

(insert witty signature here...)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaqB:
I bought this phone for his innovative design. It is the only phablet that is doesn't feel huge and honestly the camera on AOSP is okay for daily usage except if you are a photography artist . I use the camera only for Snapchat so it so it doesn't have a difference that having the LG UI or AOSP . like I said the G2 and the G3 are already officially supported by cyanogenmod for CM 13 not any of xperia Z devices . and the g3 got most of all mainstream AOSP roms available for android. And nexus 5 2013 hardware for the camera is really ****ty if you compare that with the LG g3 with an AOSP ROM so the g3 is a better choice. I don't know about Sony ; I never have a xperia Z device.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jomo86:
thinking about g3---having 2nd thoughts now

Is the overheating really that bad? Does it really require mods and thermal gel and all that? I was JUST about to buy a g3, but some of the comments on this thread have made me reconsider.

My current phone is a hand-me-down galaxy s2 (running LP 5.1.1, T-Mobile US). I'm looking to buy a new phone, and whatever I get I'll probably keep for a few years (I don't have a lot of money to spare). I'm leaning towards a G3, with my second choice a galaxy s5. I'm no fanboy for Samsung, but I also don't have any complaints about my s2.

I don't care too much about having a fancy camera, and I'll probably flash an AOSP rom (unless I find a stock rom that has the customizations I like). I have done mods before, but I don't want something that will need constant work just to keep functional. I have 2 jobs and 2 kids, and I don't have time for that! Ha.

The 3gb of ram makes it tempting, as well as wanting to try something new. I have the same question as the original poster, but the comments so far have been more negative than I expected---Is the g3 still worth it?

Thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magikmichael:
Only thing i really love about the S5 is the screen. My wife has one. Does its job very well but i love my G3 more because of bigger screen (body measurements of the S5 are almost the same as G3, G3 is a little bigger but just a few mm), love knockon to wake screen (S5 can do this too with custom kernel), my G3 on MM is faster than S5, overall build quality of the G3 is better in my opinion, if you have the option to buy the 3gb version... Do it! Its more futureproof than 2gb. Last point... Screenon Time is same overall on both phones. My wife gets around 5 hours SOT on Lollipop... Same as me with my G3 on MM.

I'm a new owner and just joined the LG G3 party for few days bcoz I'm seeking for a good and cheaper 5.5" screen with light weight design plus microSD and switchable battery. G3 got my notice and this is my first LG smartphone.

I think it is still a good option even in the year of 2016 after the MM released. I've got a D855 32GB and flashed Fulmics 4.2 with solid kernel. The different is real day and night compared to the stock v21a 5.0.1 came with. It's totally lag free now with double battery life.

The only drawback is the camera not up to the 2015/2016 standard but with the Xcam mod the quality is acceptable in this price range and still usable for daily live photo.
