Hi,
I'm in NZ, and I cant find any websites in NZ that sell the LG Optimus G yet.
However I found this website - http://www.kyoex.com/docomo-lg-l-01e-optimus-g-high-spec-quadcore-s4-phone/
This has the japanese version that aparently has a removable battery and a memory card slot.
Does anyone have one of these? Advice on this model please? I would LOVE to get this phone.
Thanks!

Spare battery can be purchased on japanese websites like rakuten. Is there any International shipping agency covering Japan in HK?? I used those services in Korea to buy LGL21 and spare batteries. Spare battery costed me 2400JPY per EA.
I had that version for a couple of days and couldnt love it, felt really cheap in my hands.

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.

yeah....gonna try to find one compatible!!! will not get easy I guess...
Ok...finally have emailed to "simore" and they suposed to check if their dual sim are working on the 980....im anxious to know, though they are more expensive...
well have news from simore, and they tell me that for now, the only compatible device for g pro is the blue box......
its a separate device who connect with Bluetooth.......there"s a model that you can put un your wallet, but you need to recharge!! i would personnaly liked to have just the dual sim...less problem and dont need to think to recharge the batterie at the end of the day!!!! and less expensive too!!!!!

I was wondering if its best to get the unlock UK LG G3 D855 or just wait for the ATT D850 version to use with my straight talk (I have a att sim)?
Also I live in Florida so will the Frequency of the UK Version work in the US? (example Like 4G, MMS, ETC)
Any drawbacks?

Hi,
I'm on vacation in HK (cool city BTW), wondering if it is possible to buy a G3 there then bringing it back to France? All the functionality ll work? 4G, call, etc.
Thanks you for helping me guys
If the model number is D855 then yes, you may need to change the firmware in order to select the LTE band though. Not 100% sure if the HK model is different to the 855 so you'd need to check it all first to be surr

Hey welcome to hk. to answer your question the G3 sold locally at retail stores are the D855 varient. the bands are as follow.
LTE 800/900/1800/2100/2600
HSDPA UMTS 900 2100
GSM 850 900 1800 1900
You can buy paralle imports since you won't be honored with warranty from LG in France with a hk model phone anyways. they're usually $1000-$1500 HKD cheaper than retail. hope you find what you need!
www.price.com.hk is a good place to start

I am not sure, you would have to check with LG on that part. On a side note, you should get the F460 Cat 6 version since you're in hk. they have them imported from s.korea for around 4700 hkd :laugh:

I don't think the Mi4 is out yet, but you can preorder. I think they'll be available late august, so if you're still in hk, then thats fine.
As for other phones, u can definitely check out the Oppo find 7 or oneplus one which many stores have in stock. i think those are great buys attheir respective prices. Another phone i would look into with ultra thin bezel is the Sharp AQUOS ZETA SH-04F.
