Hello!
First of all, sorry for new topic, but I didn't want to BUMP all topics.
I need your help
I will order LG Optimus G PRO online.
They are offering F240 for 40$ lower than E980
As I was reading few posts on XDA i found out that F240(Korean version) will work fine in Europe after some modification to build.prop. (By work fine i mean 3G, LTE, and GSM(telephone)signal.)
Can you confirm this for me please.
Thanks!
Yeah you should be fine, my G Pro is originally an E986 (French Europe) and I'm running datphu's G3 Rom that turned it into an E988 (HK) lol
I get 4G and good signal as if I was on the stock rom. So yeah, I think you should try to install a custom rom, you're lucky, there are plenty of good ones that mimick LG G3
But keep in mind that the F models from Korea do have some problems with custom roms and carriers from other countries so be careful when you are getting these kind of offers.

folks this is important and could save you your phone
there is a visual similarity between the Nitro HD P930 and a very similar looking phone, the Optimus LTE LU-6200.
there have been some questions in the forum over cross compatibility on the software. currently it isn't.
if you flash the wrong software to the wrong phone this could result in a brick.
please be aware and pick the right software?

Chris
Thanks for your warning.
But i guess the P930 is the canadian Bell version, i have this ROM version from day one on my korean LU6200 device and it works.
I dont flash a Nitro HD ROM to my phone, because it could be a big problem (brick).
LU6200
SU640
Nitro HD (AT&T)
P930 (Bell)
Thats the devices i know at this time.
Someone figured out how to 'hack' the SU-640 GB ROM and port it to the LU-6200. Guess what, they are both Asian SKU's. We are referring to the ICS development ROM that was leaked in Asia a week or so ago. As of right now, no one has figured out a way to get it onto a North American P930. Until that time comes, don't assume that it will work.

Hi Chris, thank you for the warning to all the users, but if I may suggest, can you also sticky this warning in the General area, since most of the discussions seems to take place there.

Canadian Optimus LTE (BELL P930) has the same name as Optimus LTE (korean version) and yet hardware is the same as NitroHD
It is similar to the SU-640, not the LU-6200.
In canada its a P935

ummmm actually in Canada its a " Bell Optimus LTE P930 " to be exact..
i would know as im holding mine in my hand to confirm this
From what I am hearing there are two versions of the same phone in canada depending on the carrier...I think bell is the p930 similar to the nitro hd and the su640
I think that another carrier came out with the p935 which is the same phone essentially...but stuff enough might be different to make it not compatible with what those of us with p930's have.
interesting cuz i thought this was the only one of its kind
but hey... all i know is LG has some nice hardware in this lil package, and id love to see some CM lovin for us.. otherwise, my plans to swap over to a galaxy nexus will still take place, that is once i can afford it... this damn LG sucked out $630 before tax's as i bought it outright then another $30 for unlocking
TELUS has the P935, while Bell has the P930. They are both related to the AT&T Nitro HD but with a slightly different baseband. The LU-6200 is a different animal all together. Different bootloader, different ROM, different baseband.
Does the AT&T version have any model number to go along with it or is it just known as Nitro HD? all the other ones have some tag along

The AT&T LG Nitro HD has the model number P930
the vs920.... verizon lg spectrum.. has different partitions.. and it can be bricked by flashing any other rom.. from what ive read on other forums..
And to top that off, the VS930 is coming to verizon soon.
how about the Japanese version LG Optimus LTE l01d is this model compatible with Nitro HD roms?

No.
Are the Nitro HD P936 roms/kernels/recoveries compatible with the Optimus True HD P936?
Um...
I'm confused out the ying yang. I have the Bell LG Optimus 4G LTE, and under my battery it says P930.
Do I flash Nitro HD P930 ROMs, or LG SU640 ROMs?
Thanks.
Hi, first thank you all. I come from HTCMania, "Spains` xda. My question is this.
In Spain we use GSM networks and wanted to know if all lg optimus g ,ls970 especially, comes with sim slot and if I could use here. I have read some of the gsm mod for ls970 but do not understand why, because it have sim slot
So if I unlock the phone and flash to european open rom it must be work?
Sorry for my english 50% google translator
Ls970 is for sprint carrier in us. In europe we have e975.
Sent from LG E975 pwd by CM 10.1
ok i know that, but if i buy ls970 and i unlock, it going to be functional in spain with our gsm?
Not so sure. What carrier are we talking about?Europe uses mostly 2600 mhz on LTE, sprint has 1900.So ,for start you will not be able to use 4G.
But why not get the E975?
Sprint Is CDMA. It's not going to work

Ok guys I need help pleassssssssse im hoping somebody here can answer my question. There are so many versions of the Lg Optimus it aint funny. I bought a Lg Optimus e970 for my wife who lives in France thinking it would work, she gets phone calls no problem and some 4g, but no 3g at all, I found out that phone didn't have the 3g 900 frequency needed to work.
My wife loves the Lg Optimus, so read that the E975 has the 900 and 2100 Frequency needed to work on 3g in france and the 4g frequency to. Now comes the problem. I bought a F180l Optimus G off ebay, and was told its exactly the same as a E975, but in fract I don't see this anywhere, I cant confirm it has the same specs as a E975, so Im here looking for help from you guys, can somebody tell me if my F180L optimus g is the same as a E975 ? im at a loss trying to find out, thankssssss a lot.

Hello!
So I bought the f240 thinking it was optimus g pro... Darn fake used phone seller.
Anyway, is it possible to make gps work outside of korea? It doesn't catch any satellites atm. Stays at approx 0/22.
And what do I have to do to make e98x roms work on this phone? Flash a new kernel?
Hi Guys,
I am willing to buy a mid-range smartphone. I have some options like Moto G, Honor 5X, One Plus X etc. But, I want to go with the LG G3 to try my luck., as It'll be upgraded to Marshmallow. I am not sure if I am doing the right thing or not. I need your experienced advice on that.
But, I also can see there are several models of LG G3 here in US:
LG G3 D855 - International Version
LG G3 D851 - T-mobile, US
LG G3 D850 - AT&T, US
LG G3 LS990 - Sprint, US
LG G3 VS985 - Verizon, US
I would like to use it both inside and outside of US. So, if I buy the International version, will I get the 4G LTE support in US? Can I root it and install Custom ROMS in it? Because, I googled it, and I saw, Only, T-mobile version comes with Unlocked Boot-loader. Is it true?
Please, let me know, And, it would be great, if you suggest me some better place to buy this phone online. Thanks in advance.

Check gsm lte bands are listed there for each model. Although the international model has the most custom rom support and has an fm radio. And nop there are no bootloader issues with the g3.

Thanks I think I'll go with the International version.
beware of fake D855s and you will not get LTE coverage, at least with AT&T. For these reasons I went with the 851. Good luck
No LTE on the d855 in the USA. Although it really is the best version to go with, be aware of that. In the USA at least, you'll mostly run on HDSAP+ which really is fast enough for a mobile in my opinion. (Usually from 7 to 21 Mb/s)
