Vivo xplay - a very strong GN2 contender?

http://tpt.to/a3s1PzN
Hardware specs wise is superb, physically slimmer, doesn't look too much bigger to hold, design appearance ain't that bad either. Loving the 13mp camera. But one thing I'm really interested in is the 'free touch' feature. Really practical and innovative! Anybody able to develop a similar app for note 2? This phone sounds like a level up of every note 2 feature.

Best posted in the comparison thread with every other phone that is a contender.

Didn't know there was such a thread.but my main point is asking if the free touch feature can be ported over. Thanks for informing!

Nah the thread is fine. I don't like the one thread for everything idea tbh.
As for OP - just pure specs mean nearly nothing - just like LG Optimus G Pro IMHO. Dev support, upgrades etc. are also important. There might be devices with better specs than Note II. IMO Note II checks all the right boxes - that hardly any other devices do.
As for the feature, don't even know how it works. Or how it could even be ported.

So it's anybody able to port the free touch feature over to note 2? It would be very beneficial for larger phones given the recent trend towards increasing size

Do European models of the LGOG come with 4.2.2?
Sent from my LG Optimus G

Nope.

So no update for the OG? Damn....

So far the only official version we have is 4.1.2 for all variants.
Would be nice even if one variant gets 4.4 cause then it can be ported like how the Korean rom was ported and then later the HK one before NA officially got 4.1.2

Just remember, the fragmentation of Android don't benefits the Google... So the company has been trying recruiting all devices eligible to dissemination of SO... Including LGOG... Maybe not in October, but most fast possible.... My opinion

LG would be the saddest smartphone company if they didn't update their one year old Flagship. Take hints from Samsung, LG
Sent from my LG Optimus G

Most smartphone users do not care about software updates. They do not know the importance of it. Just want Facebook working well on a big screen and durable battery. Why in my opinion it would take to update our OG is trying to avoid fragmentation of Android, not the anxiety of a minority of users ...
Sent from my LG-E977 using xda app-developers app

If such phones like the L7,L5 and L3 will get the update im sure that our G will get it too.
C'mon guys what a comparison L3 vs the G, its more a joke.

LG should drop their own software and form a partnership with Cyanogenmod. Simple as that. No problems with software and they could only concentrate on hardware.

please not!!!!
LG UI is one of the gratest interfaces i´ve ever seen!

Weird how LG replies with news of an update, when they ignore everyone who needs support
I'm hoping above all else that we do, but it just seems weird that an LG phone would be among the first to receive an update considering the company's history
Sent from my LG Optimus G

I think the Nexus devices would have the exclusivity for at least a month before any other device gets the update.

Well i just read that lg france answered a user asking for the kit kat update for our lgog and they said it will be ready to launch this month

[Q] Help! Is the Optimum app compatible w/ the G Pad 8.3????

I live in nyc in an Optimum (Cablevision) area and want to buy this tablet as an XMAS gift to replace a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 for my fiance. About 75% of her usage of the tablet is to watch live TV via the Optimum app.
We know the Optimum app is not compatible/available for all Android tablets. Seeing as the G Pad 8.3 is new, I'm concerned I'll buy this tablet and the Optimum app will not be available for it. Can somebody who has the app please let me know??
1. Is the Optimum app compatible/available in Play store (I don't do rooting...I'm scared of it lol) for install to the G Pad 8.3? And note I'm not talking about the Optimum DVR manager but rather the Optimum app that allows you to watch live TV when you are home via the app.
2. If it is compatible, does it work well?
Thank you thank you thank you to anyone who can help!! :cyclops:

Anyone???
Can somebody just go to the Google Play store on their G Pad 8.3 and tell me if they see the Optimum app there? If it's not available yet, it wouldn't show up.
A little help, dudes!

Actually - I'm really confused now because the optimum website actually lists the Google Nexus 4 as one of the Android devices it is compatible with. Hmmmm.....

Did not work at all and the last picture tried to keep popping up throughout the tablet until I uninstalled it.

I can confirm that it just seems to freak out and give that error. I am an optimum customer on optimum WiFi as well

Maybe the GPE is compatible? If you are looking for 8inch tab, the Tab 3 8.0 is pretty good. Just an opinion.

Any chance somebody who is an Optimum customer can give it a shot one more time and try running the app. I'm being told by people on Android Central that the app works perfectly fine on their G Pad 8.3.
This weekend is buying weekend for me so I need to figure this out.
Thanks! Happy Holidays!

G pad 8.3 to tab pro 8.4......

Hi guys I have a black g pad running cm11 which I'm very happy with BUT I also have a note 3 in black that I'm even more happier with.... So is it worth the upgrade to a black pro 8.4 ? I'm hoping there are users here who have made this exact jump and who could share their experience. Cheers guys.

I miss a lot of the LG apps but yes, it's worth the switch. The screen is far brighter (my biggest peeve with the gpad when watching movies). While I totally love my gpad and will miss it, the screen was an issue. The screen is bright and wonderful on the tab pro 8.4, as is the performance and battery life.

Same as cmscritic. I too loved my G Pad but the screen brightness (especially with movies) was a drawback to me. I also have the Note 3 and the Pro 8.4 looks just like a blown up version with new ui. Another build of Cm11 was released today and it looks like he fixed bluetooth so I'm fixing to give that a try. Go with the Pro , you'll never look back

I honestly don't know whether or not it works on any UK tab pro 8.4s. I know that there are 3 hardware revisions and the latest one definitely won't work (they have different kernel source for the USA vs. European editions) but otherwise the source code is looking the same. I'm going to try to get them all working soon.
At some point, I'll be asking for brave people to test builds that I can't myself test.

Thanks for the offer, but I had another guinea pig that beat you to it... CM11 should be working on all the sm-t320 variants now (but not the lte or 3g models).

[Q] Thinking of getting this phone, some questions?

Hi, I have a couple of quick questions:
-Does this phone have screen color calibration? I know there apps but those are basically layers, I mean adjustements from kernel patches like the Nexus 4, I browsed some of the g pro forums and available kernels, cant seem to find info about this.
-Is there a noticeable bump in performance from the S4 Pro cpu? Im using an Optimus G and its definitely not slow, but it isnt the beast I was expecting compared to my old HTC Sensation, its fast but I still find myself waiting while using the browser (I plan to keep the phone I get for 3 years). So yeah im curious about that or if I should just wait for the G2 Pro.
-How well does sweep 2 wake work? This is a must feature for me.
-If anyone upgraded from the Optimus G (8mpx AT&T one) how much better is the camera?

I havent seen any color calibration options.
Performance is definitely better than the OG. Mine used to lag sometimes, this one works smooth always.
Dunno about swipe to wake.
The camera is waaaaay better than the OG camera. With my OG i got decent pictures at best.

For non contract costing 350 bucks and you have a better cpu processor 64 built in storage and crispy 13 MP camera and 5 MP front camera and a 5.5 inch screen and exclusive cynogen kitkat rom.
