[Q] which is which? - LG Optimus G Pro

Hi guys,
I sure hope this won't be considered as one of the newbiest questions on the forum so here goes.
I am planning to upgrade from my s2 skyrocket to lg optimus g pro and I have no clue as to which model is which.
I want to buy one that has no pixels on the back but the AT&T logo..and also to be white. (like in attachment - but white doh)
I'm in Europe so more than obviously I will have to buy it online ebay/aliexpress, but when ever I search for the AT&T one I get a picture with all more than just 1 model.
Gsmarena's review is not much of a help either.
So, hoping this doesn't sound completely retarded...which model would the white one with at&t logo on it ( no glass pixels or whatever) be?
Also, I've seen some people in Germany for example have had some issues ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2570867 ) with theirs...Should I be on the lookout for something in particular if I'm buyng it from Asia, or just install custom ROM that's not for korean market....even if it has at&t logo - (us market doh), one could only wonder...
Thanks a million!
Happy holidays & a happy NY!
Cheers

Thank you,
I just figured that each color for at&t had it's own model #.
So e980 it is, thank you, Sir.

No problem! The model number differs by each region, so the Korean is the 240, etc..
Glad I could help!

Looking to buy Bell P930

Hi guys,
I am looking to buy a LNIB p930, with the plastic still on the screen.
What are your thoughts about this phone? I am going to be running 3g/HSPA+, So I'm hoping the battery life would be usable as compared to LTE.
Any other thoughts about this phone?
The seller is asking for $300, which would be a steal - the rival SGS2 LTE goes for $450 new in box
Please leave some comments, let me know what you think about this phone!!
Thanks
for 300 i would jump on it dude, I bought mine for 400 and im very happy with it.
Now that we have ICS, this phone rocks!
I would get it. I live mine and bought the nitro off a guy for 220$. Best phone I ha e had.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA
Yes I would say $300 is a good price. It is quite an amazing phone on ICS, and yeah, not running LTE 24/7 does make a significant difference on battery life.
which one to choose?
I currently using LG P970, and now planning to upgrade to LG P930, just want to know what's the differences for this phone...
LG Nitro HD, LG Optimus LTE LU6200, LG Optimus LTE SU640
...and my choice is LU6200, can this phone flash to P930 firmware?
hope somebody can give more information about this phone, thank you.
~sorry for my bad english~

i bought mine bnib for $250 on ebay. Still sealed. I apparantly got a little excited as I had bid on 2 different phones and won them both. Now to sell this device.

So today my e975 arrived. What to do first?

Hi all,
Today my LG Optimus G E975 finaly arrived. I live in Europe (NL) so I waited for this model to not get in trouble with frequency bands in a few months when LTE will become available here. According to the specs I wouldn't have a problem with LTE with at least half of the providers.
My provider probably will not implement it soon so I can switch to a good one at that time. Now I have slow UMTS 364kb/s but eey it is unlimited for 50ct a day. streaming over 10G a month. When I putted my simcard in it had no problem detecting anything it even changed the language of the phone to my own, i wouldn't have a problem with english but ok it is easy.
Qslide apps are in the notification bar. It comes with JB 4.1.2 straight from the box and had the right plug for me. Both English and European.
It even updated E97510a-OPEN-HK to E97510b-OPEN-HK, again something i didn't expect from a phone ordered internationally (updates are a B.eautiful I.ntelligent T.easing C.harismatic H.ermaphrodite here for outside phones) so I am very pleased.
So obviously what to do first with this phone? I don't need root yet as I am not intrested in trying new roms in the next couple of weeks but what about themes and tweaks? Any European users that know a place where they would sell the right bumper or otterbox and/or screen protectors that I don't need to ship from US or asia? I don't feel like waiting for weeks or pay for express delivery to double the price.

I'm reeally confused as well as tensed about compatibility of ROMs between E970, E973 and the E975......which I bought. I owned a ZTE Blade which ruled in moddability, lets see whats the future for Optimus G !
Bump. I just bought my E975 from Mobicity (Australia). I don't really understand whether roms for other models will be supported. I'm upgrading from my HTC Desire HD (she has served me well) and would love to get back to CM10.1 or AOKP as soon as possible.
The Australian rom is the best so far for stock JB. I've been using it for almost 2 weeks now.

[Q] LG G3 - Korean model for UK?

Hello everyone!
I've done some reading on the forums (so I hope I haven't missed a similar topic)
and I have a few questions to ask. Being the proud UK owner of a G2, the best phone I've ever used hands down, I am definitely ready to move onto the G3 !
I am seriously thinking of buying the Korean version - 32 Gig, 3 G of RAM sound more futureproof than 16 Gig, 2 for the same price nevertheless. However, I have a few questions for anyone who either has knowledge or has owned a Korean product before.
1) LTE bands and frequence. According to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vodafone_UK#Radio_frequency_summary Vodafone, my provider, uses both band 20 and 7 for LTE. Now there are three LG variants, the L, S and K. According to this: http://optimusforums.com/threads/ko...ide-lte-band-differences-pros-and-cons.13134/ , it's just the L that has one of the two LTE bands used by Vodafone (And seemingly by most UK providers). Am I reading this wrong, or is it that the other two models would not support LTE?
2) Warranty - I guess this goes out to those who have actually owned one In the (un)likely event something goes wrong, what's the process of dealing with it - shipping it back and forth to Korea? I assume LG doesn't support Korean products locally.
3) Modding/Roming. Once more based on : http://optimusforums.com/threads/ko...ide-lte-band-differences-pros-and-cons.13134/, most mods that come out come out for the international models. Is this a reality? I've never been following models/variants much, but is it quite possible that buying from a Korean market may result in me never getting access to the good mods out there?
Thanks for reading, for answering (and for possibly trolling me ), and hope my questions make some sense.
After much Dilemma myself, I was in the same position as you are now in, I couldn't find any info on which model to go for, the F400K or the F400S variant, I spoken to my carrier and they gave me the gsm frequencies (I am in ireland) and then spoken/live chat with the supplier of the LG G3 from Ebay and they also directed me in the right way. I received my Brand New LG G3 F400K yesterday from Korea, and it work brilliantly. From my knowledge here in Ireland we run on the same basebands as you in the UK.
Perhaps the supplier of the phone can also direct you in the right direction, I initially ordered the F400S, but after discussing it with the supplier it became apparent that the F400K was the one for me.
Hope that helps you. I have brilliant 3G coverage here (4G not over here in my location yet) so I cant guide you on this.
Thanks
There is a good youtube video guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj_KUqkH4oQ on Korea models too if your importing. Shows whats in the box and talks about the pros and cons.

I wouild definitely upgrade from the S3 to the LG G3, I have had the Samsung S2, S3, S4, HTC One (M7), LG G2 and now the LG G3 and by far its the best phone I have ever owned, admittidely I have only had it a few days, but you can completely see the difference between them, I used to love Samsung, but ever since I had the LG G2 I am now a True LG Fan, Samsung have gone in the way of putting too many gimmicks into their phones, and also releasing different cariants of their flagship, ie, S5, and now S5 prime...etc. Definitely worth the purchase for the LG G3. Well worth the money. Battery life is great, Camera is Awesome, its quick and responsive with the 3GB Ram. The Brightness/Contrast is by far the best I have seen on any phone, The Display is awesome, QHD at its best. I love my G3

Korean G3 advise

Hello Guys,
I went back to my Nexus 5 from an AT&T LG G3. I didn't know about about the PMA (I have QI chargers everywhere), and I wasn't sure about the Snapdragon 801 when there's a version with the 805.
So, I'm thinking about getting the latest korean version with 32GB, 3GB, 805 and QI-compatible hardware, but I'm confused with the models. What is the latest, and which one works with AT&T's LTE network? Tried searching, but everybody talks about a different model.
Also, what's the best place to order it? Do you guys recommend it? Or should I wait to see the Nexus 5/6 2014?
(G3 sub forum.. I believe you like it, but I expect honest opinions)
Thank you guys in advance!

I have the F460S (G3 with the SD805) and it works on Att. I believe that all of the Korean ones have the same bands if I recall correctly. I like my Korean one more than my Att D850. It doesn't work as hard or get as hot as the Att one which is good. There are some OPs discussing the F460 if you look in this forum. You have to get the quick circle case for the cat 6 model to get the qi (just remove the sticker and put it in your back cover). I'm glad that I got the F460 its a great phone.

Awesome! So F460S works on AT&T. F460 is the F460S or they're different models?
Also, does it come with much bloat? Where did you get?
Thanks
What about this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-G3-Cat6-...60764?pt=Cell_Phones&var=&hash=item33948add9c
It's the cheapest listing on eBay.. The seller says that LTE may not work in the US, but for AT&T it should, right?

All Korean models have the same bands from what I remember. The S is SKT (South Korea Telecom) and it has a ton of bloat. Thankfully it's simple to remove 99% of it, only 1 or two things need root to remove. I like the S model because of the logo on the back and that's the only reason that I can think of... The F460 S/K/L should all work on ATT so I wouldn't worry. It was the same way with the F400 S/K/L. I also had a F400S and it was fine on Att.
The only real differences between all of the models are:
Logo on back cover
Pre-installed bloat
Unless I'm forgetting something that should be it. I would double check that of you like. Here is the link discussing the F400 S/K/L variants and bands(460 should be the same)

It will definitely work on Att, as for the model I like the S but some people buy the K/L models because they tend to be cheaper.
