If you mean selling your GNex and exchange for a Moto G, then as someone who loves custom ROMs, my current answer is a big NO. Look how the HTC One gets plenty of support and development while HTC One Mini has nothing until recently. Now look at Moto X, it doesn't even have CM yet. As a mini sibling of Moto X, G is only expected to be worse supported. And G doesn't necessary run faster than a custom ROM'd GNex.
Seriously, isn't Moto G cheap enough so that you don't have to sell your GNex to buy it?
Personal opinion - feel free to comment.

I'll hopefully doing the same...
GNEX isnt for me anymore.

i read an article that LG is gonna come out with a new device called LG - Gx wich has the exact same specs as the LG g pro with a little less PPI (401ppi) but with the new jelly bean OS ,
this is more than enough for anyone who has respect for his money to say no in the future to any LG cellular device,
money hungry company who gives a crap and puts even more crap on their costumers over time.

Too early to opine, personaly i take it with a grain of salt......would be surprised that they made a device with the same spec then 2013.....

I'm just hoping it has dev support and we can somehow rip the ROM and run it on the G Pro seeing that most of the hardware is the same.
well it look like I was not right......it seem that lg have made the same phone then the g pro....
http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_gx_goes_official_in_korea_with_55_screen_and_snapdragon_600-news-7375.php
to be honest I don't understand much why the lg x have the same spec then the g pro?? the positive point is that we gonna problably be able to port his newest rom in our g pro.. otherwise it not gonna be in the category of "flagship" especialy in 2014...
Hopefully LG will update the G Pro alongside it when it releases, although it is weird that lg is releasing the same phone with just newer software...

They're saving a fortune on software updates since they never update anything. Probably cheaper to just release another device and hope the public buys it. After all, we bought the OG Pro, didn't we and knew full well that no updates would be released.
We can only hope to port its stock rom onto our phone.
Just read that moto G is already receiving the 4.4 update. And v r still on 4.1.2 :banghead:

I just want my G Pro to have the same vanilla stock kit Kat nexus rom like my n7 and n4 have. This stock LG rom sucks up too much memory.

The LGOGP has 2GB RAM, it's more than enough for running it lag free (mine running very smooth). With Android 4.3< things will be even better thanks to the new Trim function. From my experience 98% of the time the best rom for any device is based on its official release.
LG making a mistake in the long run not updating their devices.
Hello,
I am purchasing Lg G pro E980 AT&T,
My question is that is it worth to buy LG G PRO phone??

Does this phone is capable to record Slow/fast motion videos ??

Well from what I saw, no. I got a lg e980 from a trip to usa, stop working after few months, and LG won't do **** because my main address is not US.
Bought e980 from ebay, last 2 days, sitting on my desk.
(back light and notification light stop working, but phone power up)
And by the mean time my overused 2010 desire z htc still working 100%.
Isn't just a coincidence, if you look the q&a , there's too much of threads about people having a problem, and it's not a popular device, there's not that much post in xda, and not all carrier received this device.
One word = planned obsolescence.
Got trouble with a LG tv as well, and I'm really not a tv guy, I use it times to times.
Maybe not a representative experience, but that was enough for me.
Well, take a look of the OnePlus One phone, looks like the best bang for the buck phone on the entire market right now.
My Lg g pro is working great..if you look at any other phones threads,they too have "bricked".."stopworking"etc.....dont blame only g pro

Hey guys,
I need to decide between the LG G4 and the Oneplus 2. I really like the expandable memory and battery life of the G4, but the Oneplus has a great processor and lots of development. So I'm interested to know what you like and don't like about the G4. What should I know about the phone in considering it? There isn't much ROM or Kernel development from what I see here, how do you like what is available? How easy is it to root compared to Samsung, HTC, and Oneplus? How customizable is it? Can you simply OV/UC?
Any feedback is appreciated!
I had the same choice has you. I choosed G4 two weeks ago for a lot of reasons. (I had a Note4)
Problem : Touch default which will be correct in the next update
I prefer G4 against Oneplus2 for : Expandable memory, battery removable, more stable CPU/GPU, great screen, great photos/videos. Good battery.
I haven't root the phone actually, but I have downloaded the bootloader unlocker key on LG website. In fact root seems very easy.
Root is pretty simple and with an unlockable bootloader coming for most if not all variants the g4 development will be booming soon...i love the camera and the overall smoothness of my g4 and plan on keeping it for a long while

Unlockable bootloader...usually draws devs as a workaround is not needed to install custom roms/kernels...also root is an easy process...also i owned the original optimus g the g2 g3 and all had great developement...i will probably be an lg mobile buyer for life...plus an unlocked bootloader on such a powerful device just screams for attention
I highly doubt there'll be much development for the g4. And obviously there'll be way more for the op2. So if you buy a phone to flash roms all day long I think the decision is simple. For me the g4 with root and Xposed is perfect. I wouldn't flash anything else than stock on it if I got payed for it.

I dont flash ROMs everyday. Before my OPO got stolen. I hadnt flashed anything in about two months. I just want to make the phone run the way I want. Why do you think there wont be much development? And how do you think it would compare to g2 and g3 development?

It has been a long time since I used Xposed, but if I remember correctly you cant really tweak the voltages, clock speed, governors, io scheduler, Etc. Plus I'm concerned about development after LG ends support

Agreed.
The reason we used to flash roms daily was to fix faults and improve things which usually broke other things...
G4 on latest update seems pretty much perfect.
More time spent doing fun stuff now.

That's great, for now. But when Lg stops supporting the G4 in about a year, I'd like there to be continued dev.
Additionally, there are things I'd like to tweak to make the phone more suited for my use (gov/io, clock speed, processor voltage, wifi seek interval, etc) that I dont think I can do with xposed or with stock.
How much customizability is there with lg stock? What about the Kernels already available?

I'm happy leaving voltages etc alone. It works great as it is for me. Maybe check the dev section for progress but sounds like one plus 2 might suit you better.
The plan I'm on allows a new phone yearly so so fading dev support was never an issue.

According to lgs website the g2 is about to get 5.1...they may even get m...the support from lg is pretty amazing for an oem...i also had my g3 break out of warranty but it was a known issue and lg fixed it free of charge...thats why i stick to lg
I got a private message that really helped me a lot from Zilol. I'm posting it here for others who may be considering the same thing, with Zilol's permission of course
I would choose the G4 if it was overall experience and stability. But root and everything about KDZ is horrible if u are used to nexus-like devices, the G4 is way more trouble and all about being careful and a lot of more work as well. TWRP got erased and if u boot into recovery (stock), it automatically does a factory reset with wiping media too (I didnt know neither of those 2 factors) and I lost my internal storage. I was so mad, I gave the 1+2 a shot. Well, compared to the G4 the 1+2 feels like a unfinished buisness. The battery life isnt really above average. I would guess the SD810 to be the culprit but thats not the case. Its something about standby time, not OST but I guess that could be fixed by a software update. OxygenOS feels like an unfinished buisness, lacking several important features and a certain degree of stability. When I updated to 2.0.2, I lost the search bar in "recents" and "clear all apps" was gone as well, which just makes no sense, since u dont have an option to activate it, at least I didnt found it. The next thing is camera. On short distance its fine and compareable to the G4 but under low lights its another story. the photos arent as sharp as on the G4 when zoomed in but that could be the difference in megapixel count. but the biggest problem (just discovered like 2 mins ago) its just bad when it comes to distance shots. Because the infinite focus doesnt seem to work. When I manually focus, there is a short period where its sharp but when the focus is fixated its not sharp at all. I like in the 27th floor with a whole city to my feet and the picture quality differences speaks for themselves, especially at low light. otherwise the 1+2 cam is fine but not to take picture in the distance properly is an issue, maybe it will get fixed through an update.
I recommend the G4. I like stock android but in my opinion the LG UX was good to go. Its really not that much of a big deal. The cam is great, the battery life fair and u can swap battery and expand storage. The 1+2 does better at flashing and u dont loose warranty through BL unlock, only time will tell. Once they fix fingerprint for CM roms or until M is out and FP becomes native, I cant recommend 1+2 over G4. Or atleast they have to update oxygenos bc the current state is problematic, maybe CM roms are better but right now they lack laser-autofocus and fingerprint so thats a no-go for me. On the other hand OOS 2.1 will be out by the mid of the month, so maybe its worth the wait since its a 2.1 bigger update. Im positive 1+ will give their best but at the end of the day only real life performance counts even if they put much effort in it.
When it comes to build quali I prefer the 1+2 over the G4. The leather back is awesome but the chrome finish on the sides isnt my thing. both feel really good in the hand tho but the alu sides of the 1+2 makes it feel more premium. If u choose the 1+2 btw, be aware of the style swap covers. I bought it in china in the experience store, so Im talking about oem accessories. I bought the rosewood and kevlar back but they are thicker and make the phone more bulky. The standard sandstone covers finishes with the alu sides but the others stand out a little bit. Could be an aestethic problem.

Hi I have a question... but Would you change the LG G3 for a Sony Z2 on the same conditions? I am thinking of it. My G3 have 3GB of ram 32GB of storage and its dual sim. wich have and takes better pictures, and wich one performs better on games?
If you want a cell phone on base of camera quality then go for Xperia Z2. It has more better camera than LG G3 but less storage then LG G3. (Z2=16gb and G3=32gb).
LG G3 and Xperia z2 have nearly same processor (LG G3 got a little more better than Z2). Both have same OS (Android Marshmallow after update).
But if you are thinking about gaming and graphics display then LG G3 is best option. Cause it has got QuadHD display..
You can have complete comparison of both LG G3 and Xperia Z2 at
gsmarena(dot)com
If i would be at your place then would go for Xperia Z2 because it is more expensive then LG G3.
Go for it

It feels premium instead of light plastic
Did the exact change few days ago
Its just great
Look at the pics
EDIT:: you also get good apps like garmin navigation for free
It is an xperia bundle
Look at sony site for all apps you get
And if you have an sony sixaxis playstation 3 or 4 controller like I do
Its in few steps conactable you just pair it no root needed
And great for gaming
Evan my antutu is better then my old G3

Z2 has better camera? Have you got any proof for this statement? Because Sony flagship smarphones have totally average camera (except Z5, it has great camera).
Look at here: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g3_vs_sony_xperia_z2-review-1100p8.php
And about display, QuadHD doesn't mean it's better, because it's actually not in this way (QHD consumes more battery), but in quality comparison, G3 has better display.

Totally agree with that statement. Sony might make good stand-alone cameras but their smartphone cameras are totally average. I would also like to mention the build quality of Sony, my Z3 started having issues after few months of purchase and even after few replacements and repairs the issues kept coming back. I finally gave up and switched to G3. Never been more happier, G3 surpasses Z3 in all aspects and yes, the camera is one of them.
