[Q] Difference in Models - LG Optimus G (International)

What is the dfference between f180l and e975 e973 e971 and why people hate the korean version. Is there a superiority factor in the European versions

They are all models for different markets and/or different providers or international versions. Some of them have 8mpix camera, some 13mpix, also if I'm not mistaken on some there is a microsd slot. Layout of camera, flash and speaker on backside is also different.
So differences in radios (regarding networks), cameras, card slots and layout practically means that you cannot use the same roms and cases on every model.
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - E975, E973, E971
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 2100 - E975
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 - E973, E971
4G Network LTE 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 - E975 (market dependent)
LTE 700 / 1700 - E973
LTE 700 / 2600 - E971

Korean model = no FM radio, no edge support, no lte outside Korea
Only people who wants these things will hate it obviously,

[Q] Can someonehelp me find the version of this phone, and will it work in Canada?

Hi everyone;
First off, if this is in the wrong area, I'm sorry.
I've been looking to get my girlfriend a new phone for her birthday. She has an old Optimus 3D and the screen is cracked. I've been looking online to buy a Optimus G for her and came across a bunch online.
Most of which are listed as F180. I'm not sure what version this ends up being.
I'm hoping to get this phone for her and have it at least work on HSPA+ in Canada on the Rogers Network, but it would be great if it would work on LTE too.
I'm a little confused as to what frequencies Rogers LTE is on. I've read online that it's anything from 700, 850, 1900 , 1700, 2100 and 2600.
According to GSMArena the model frequencies are as follows:
2G Network
GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - E975, E973, E971
3G Network
HSDPA 900 / 2100 - E975
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 - E973, E971
4G Network
LTE 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 - E975 (market dependent)
LTE 700 / 1700 - E973
LTE 700 / 2600 - E971

According to the Optimus G Wiki page Canada has the E971 and E973 models. If the International Version is E973, this should work on Rogers HPSA+ at least, and at least one frequency for LTE.
Is this correct?
Unfortunately I can't post any links right now because I haven't made enough posts, so I can't link to where I plan on buying the phone from.
Any help or suggestions would be great!

[Q] E975 vs E973

What's diffirence? I need new motherboard to my E975. E973 on ebay with cracked screen is pretty cheap. What about differences? I heard that E973 has 8MP camera but some sites says its 13MP like E975. What about bands too? I need 900/2100 working bands like on E975, again one sites says that E973 would work on that bands.
Look here at gsmania: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_optimus_g_e975-4941.php
4G Network
LTE 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 - E975 (market dependent)
LTE 700 / 1700 - E973
it says E973 has 700 / 1700 LTE not 900/2100 that you need, the E975 depends on market.

does anyone invent a band rewrite tool ?

hi there ,
i wanted to ask if there is some tool anywhere that can rewrite htc one version from gsm to t-moblie et
that if someone buy accidentally wrong version that doesn't support the bands ,he can change them ,so it could work?
for instance:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 - EMEA, Asia
LTE 700 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 - Asia
to
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 - AT&T
LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 - AT&T et...
thanks ahead.
Its not possible. If the bands are not supported in hardware, there is no way to magically make it work with software.
There are some isolated instances of bands being "hidden" in software (but in fact supported in hardware) and folks making the band accessible by flashing a different radio. But such cases are very rare, and flashing radios not meant for the device is also very risky, as its a great way to truly brick the phone.

G Pro 4G/LTE

Hello, I have LG Optimus G Pro E980 and it is unlocked for GSM, My operators do not support these bands
LTE 700 / 1700 / 2100 (Bands 4, 17) - for AT&T
