Hi All, Is there any app to validate a fake/clone LG G3 ?
I will get a hands on before I buy it so whats the most fool proof way to check it's originality?
Thanks!
I would say the resolution and the dpi.
Also ask the seller if the unit has a custom rom, recovery, rooted, or whatnot. Test reboot, shutdown, calls, sms, 4g, etc

Hey! Thanks for your reply. I am assuming i should be able to tell the difference between a QHD vs the 720p's on the Clones.
But is there any app i can use ? or some more effective way to confirm ?
Thanks again!

Thanks, The storage is 8gb but emulated to show 32. so Im wondering if the DPI will be spoofed too ?
@twisted_twice - The video is good but i need some key indicators to test the phone.
The laser focus and IR blaster are always fake.. what is the best way i can test them ?
if you are allowed install this apk :CPU-Z , by the way how much is the phone?

Cool, thanks for the APK.
It's being sold by an individual.. For 20000 Rupees(USD 340)
you could also run a benchmark... Antutu will give you details and the benchmark should be between 36000-40000.
Im telling you, they can clone everything except the screen. If you see jagged or blurry icons on the screen, there is a big chance that it is fake. Walk away.

Thanks, I'm assuming it should be easy to tell a 720 vs a QHD
screen. But i doubt they will be blurry or jagged. Right? Sometimes this can be tricky if you're not comparing a device side by side. But perhaps i can test side by side my Nexus 5. Text should be equally or sharper.

are there 16gb fakes?
some one offert me a exchange for my oneplus one
for a 16gb lg g3. i wanted a 32gb, but at the end a g3 is way better than a oneplus one.
just want to be sure it can't be a fake
im planning to swap my LG g2 32gb to a Lg g3 3gb also.
does the clone/fake LG g3 runs Lollipop or Kitkat only?
sorry for my bad english.
It is reasonably easy to replicate exterior of the phone, but to make fake camera and display that would be closely similar to the original is something else.
Also, replica would have to be equipped with appropriate CPU and RAM, sensors, storage, dual flash...
Regarding software, fake G3 would have to be equipped with a a fake ROM that is almost identical to official LG ROM... Also, fake LG would not be able to get OTA updates.. Fake G3 would also have to have a knock on / off feature which is not so easy to implement..
So, it is not realistic to have fake G3 that would be hard to recognize.. If someone produce it, it would be very easy to see that it is not an original, and i there any counterfeiters that are capable to produce fake premium smartphone with all the components, usability and performance of the original, than they can made their own brand
Christ just tell us what it says under the build number in system software
You cant fake system software versions. The fake ones always have some obscure build number that immediately shows up as fake if you type it into google
Its so simple and all of you make it so complicated
i just swapped my g2 to a g3 32gb.
i think the fake ones runs Kitkat 4.4.2 (not sure)
what i did is i look at first the display panel and compared it to my xiaomi redmi 1s with 720x1920 resolution.
and i perform also some antutu benchmarks and CPU-Z.
I've investigated a little bit about those clones, and after seeing review at Youtube I am quite impressed with the quality of build (both hardware and software wise) and and also with efforts those guys actually put into making fake G3 even in small details.
So, after watching G3 clone review, some conclusions:
1. If you buying G3 online:
- It is virtually impossible to tell the difference between real and fake G3 only by looking pictures on-line
- So, if it is advertised as a genuine G3, and the price is suspiciously low, this is cause for alarm. Maybe that's not a fraud but...
2. If you can test a phone before you buy it, you can quickly determine are there some reasons for suspicion:
- Look for a IR laser range finder at the back. It is there in both cases, but with clone G3 it is not working. With original G3, blinking red light is visible while back camera is activated.
- Take a screenshot of the screen(volume down+power), and then from the gallery look for the details of captured image. LG clone has HD resolution (720x1280), while original G3 has qHD (1440x2560). Resolution of captured image matches the resolution of the screen.
Apart from this, accessories (charger, headset, usb cables) are so badly made, that is is clearly visible that they are fake.

Hello,
I'm thinking of buying this: http://www.sj5000actioncamera.com/
I've never had something like this before but I want to use it with my smartphone. For example, I want to be able to put it on my rear bumper, or tape it to a stick to check the gutters of the roof (is this correct English? ) I can then use the screen of my phone to see what the camera sees.
Also I want to be able to upload video with my phone without using a computer.
Does anybody know if this is easy with something like this? I've also seen an older version: http://www.foxoffer.com/sjcam-sj400...tion-camera-sport-dvr-p-763.html#.VBcPUvl_tUU maybe someone has experience with that?

I don't have experience with that particular camera but I have a GoPro Hero3 Black. It has WiFi built in and I never installed the app or used the WiFi feature strictly because I hear it's a real bad battery drain. Don't know how it affects the one you're looking at but I have to imagine it drains the battery a bit. As far as uploading video, I imagine that it wouldn't be difficult as long as you have good data signal and the patience to let the video upload.
All SJ5000 are not the same manufacturer of SJCAM SJ4000.
There are two version of sj4000 wifi,
the original sjcam one has better video effect but not stable wifi
the third party sj4000 has normal video effect but stable wifi
Geekbuying has both of them with price of 112.99usd and 79.99usd
So there is a real difference between the SJCAM SJ4000 lister here: http://www.foxoffer.com/sjcam-sj4000-full-hd-waterproof-action-helmet-camera-p-762.html#.VBtMsvl_tUU and the SJ4000 here http://www.sj4000actioncamera.com?
As far as I can see in the list of specs is that the real difference is the WiFi and the battery (SJCAM offers 50mAh less).
But if I look at the differences in the SJ4000 and the SJ5000 there is no real difference notable, except for the wifi and the battery again. But for the 5 bucks more I guess I'd like some more juice and WiFi
I think I seen somewhere a comparison between SJ4000 and SJ5000 features, and SJ5000 was a lot better, including wi-fi support. Amazing deal for $85 http://www.dx.com/p/amkov-sj5000-14...igital-video-camera-black-339612#.VBzLH7B0z3g - and you can use all GoPro accessories!

According to what I have seen original sjcam cameras are marked as such and are better than their lookalikes. At present the latest sjcam sj5000 plus Ambarella A7LS75 chipped version is off the market by manufacturer as it has a wifi problem being fixed. Some old stock looks like it is being being sold through other dealers though. Some say as good as gopro 3 for much less money. Gopro4 is on aussie market at $549au sjcam sj5000plus is $207au. I am buying mine with 2 spare batteries and external charger for $243au. Around third the price but certainly not a third the quality photography or hardware.
Finally got my SJ5000 for review. Hopefully will get to it in a week or so, so expect a review soon

Actually Sj5000 is not better than sj4000
On youtube some videos show sj5000 is not better than sj4000 camera ,sj4000 is good action camera, but blackview dv800b is better than sj4000. sj 4000 is 1080P camera, but blackview Dv800B is 2.7k camera, 1080P/60fps, On youtube you can get the original videos captured by blackview dv800b,no editing,no music,no subtitle.
I prefere the sj4000 camera
i was on trip in austrian alps and a did this video.
sj 4000 cam, full hd 30fps

Hi there. I've been using the phone for about a month. (1.5GB 13mp version)
You can ask me anything about it. So far everything runs really smooth and I'm quite pleased with the camera (and quite dissappointed with the stock camera app).

Open Camera (you can find it here on XDA) and the full version of Camera FV-5. Both work well but sometimes you have to take a few shots to adjust the exposure correctly.

Hello iPp350z,
Do you test the GPS? Because i'm between K10 (K420N)and LG Zero (H650E). And on test here: http://www.notebookcheck.net/
LG H650E have little more accurate GPS.
But K10 look better
Thank you!

I'm using KingRoot and it roots just fine but I have the Snapdragon 410 version. Battery life is about a day and a half for me and I use it quite often.

Sure, no problem, I'll test it. Any specific app that you prefer? From my experience the GPS locks almost instantly and is quite accurate but I haven't done any specific tests.
Yeah, it looks way better than the H650E and it also has a bigger screen while being almost the same size. That was the main reason I bought it. The camera also takes great photos in daylight but night photos are terrible.
Well I have the t-mobile (US) version, and it has ups and downs.
UP:
1) The 1.5 GB of ram helps keep things snappy.
2) It actually received security updates. I'm. Only 2 months behind the Nexus phones, which is pretty good for a carrier branded phone.
3) Display is nicely bright.
4) SD card support
5) Removable battery.
6) $165.
DOWN:
1) 8 MP camera,
2) No USB OTG support
3) I've had 3 times where the phone audio didn't work at all. Had to reboot to get it back.
4) Screen size a little.large for me to type in landscape.
The only one I care about is the call audio issue...

Im wondering if the camera from the Google Pixel could be installed in the G4. The physical camera, not the software, well the software too.....
I have seen that its possible to instal the kdz for the google camera w AI. I have seen the quality of photos the pixel can make, I have tried (ok Im trying) to install the G4 camera in my G3, but it requires some chassis mods).
I have read all I can about the cameras in the Pixel, and the G4. i think they are both made by sony.
they look the same (comparing pictures of products for sale on ebay)
could one just pop out the stock camera and install the other? Is there some kind of system check that is performed before boot?
why or why not?
cheers

It could work if connection are the same but it's not so easy. Anyway after changing the camera you'll need also a Rom supporting it with correct "Drivers" or you'll have only a bunch of errors XD
Someone reached to do camera swap in really similar phones.

i had 2 LGV30 H930 with me too and i have to say that this display is absolutely gorgeous and we have little characters by default here .
It seems we have more brightness OOTB on this Oled but maybe this is a software calibration.
No Banding problem at all until now.
Platinum Gray is the best color i had on all my LG Devices. Loving it
I just with they moved the headphone jack to the bottom if they're making a revised version.
Other than that, does it feel any different to a V30? Is there any reason to upgrage? Also, do you not live in the US? Isn't it carrier locked?

A lot of phones moved the HPJ to the bottom in the last years and I think it really makes sense imo. Especially on a phone like the V30 which is the ultimate audiophile phone.
I use mine all the time for listening to music and I wanna put the phone upside down in my pocket so when I take it out, my finger is already on the fingerprint reader and I can instantly use the phone. But if the HPJ is at the top, I can't to that because I don't want to stress the jack on the phones (it's one of the most common failure points on a headphone), so I have to put the phone bottom side down in my pocket. And then when I take it out I need to flip it in my hand or just take it out uncomfortably so it's already in the right orientation. But then I need to adjust my grip so I can get to the fingerprint reader.
It may seem like a really small thing, but sometimes on a long walk I can take the phone out tens of times and every time it's really uncomfortable. Also the other thing is more minor but if you plug some headphones with a thick and heavy cable, the weight distribution becomes top-heavy which also makes using the phone pretty annoying. Generally I don't see any advantage having the thing on top, but may be it's just me.

Usually LG is famous to take wrong decisions worldwide
it's too bad LG value sinks like a rock. This is a fantastic phone, but after buying the V30 upon release for $800, I think from now on I'll just scoop them up lightly used on ebay 6 months later for half price.
I also see the updated the selfie cam. Which is great. But apparently the camera app has less features (since it's exactly the same as the G7), and the wide angle cam is 107 degrees on the V35 and 120 degrees on the V30. Another downgrade imo.

Can you dump the vendor partition by any chance?
We might be able to make use of it for the V30 and get a better Treble experience than the current vendor partition that we have from the Trebelized LineageOS rom for the V30.

Problem would be: different drivers for camera and so on, also for the chipset (except they split it up again, like the firmware in the v30, which for example adreno is split up in adreno 520, 530 (whereas the higher ones contain just patches for the lower ones, so you can take the lower named ones for a sd821 device)
idk about vibrator or so though, which would be nice though (damn special vibrator hardware in the v30 making everything complicated lol)
i just don't understood if USB Type-C here is 2.0 or 3.1

Also SD845 isn't "stock" big.LITTLE anymore - it's further evolved DynamIQ, whatever that means, also cache handling and structure is different (common cache between cores/cluster)
quite a different beast, actually:

https://www.neowin.net/news/qualcomms-snapdragon-845-benchmarks-show-massive-gains
In theory it has outstanding performance gains 20-45% (?) but in benchmarks it's more close to 15-20%, still pretty awesome for a generation upgrade
So with a custom toolchain, custom optimization flags, custom ROM, etc. you mostly will be able to get more of the full potential out of that phone
I like how it catches up to Apple's SoC in a BIG way

I doubt they would downgrade it on the V35 to 2.0 as the V30 has atleast 3.1 Gen 1 (former known as 3.0).
Just that LG only ships a 2.0 cable with the V30 (atleast my H930 only had a 2.0 cable...), used a 3.0 cable, and transfer rate skyrocketet
Edit: @wolfgart could you tell me the model number for the V35? (or get a kdz?)
I think i could use some of its implementations on the V30 (e.g. the vibrator, could fix that it becomes dull after a while, if it still uses the same motor for it that is)

Hello everybody.
I'm looking to buy this phone (new) as a daily driver. I know its kinda old, so I would like to ask is it still worth it to buy this phone? I don't use much apps and use my phone for texting, browsing, reddit, calls etc...
I see that there are a lot of roms for this phone, so i would like to ask are they reliable and up-to-date? Or have they been abandoned? I would like to buy a phone and be set with it for next 5+ years.
I would like to buy a phone with removable battery so my other option is Samsung xcover 4s.

Effects any camera app
May have slight green tint in photos
May only be be able to take a certain amount of photos before phone/app needs restarting
Video recording may not work in some apps or may not save file correctly
QR code scanning may not work correctly
The above list is a rough bug list and may vary on a device by device basis & rom version & apps being used

Thank you for the excellent reply. I'm quite happy at the moment with the Stock Oreo on my G5 which I recently got A-grade refurbished at a decent price as my old Moto G3 is getting a bit tatty. It seems that my old G3 is better supported at the moment as I'm running 3 different Android 10 Custom roms all working good(Floko/crDroid/Havoc).
It's a shame that crDroid seem to only cover the G5 Potter and Sanders

Custom 64bit roms for this device currently have a bug with the camera
If you can get your hands on one look at the Moto g7 play on ebay
It's updatable to stock android 10 and probably just as cheap as this device second hand or refurbished

If you buy an 3GB RAM model, I think you're OK.

Thank you guys. Moto G7 is a bit too large for me as i would like something below 5.5. All the other phones that i've looked at are upgradeable to Oreo or Pie at best. Xcover 4s is upgreadable to Android 10, so i think ill go with that one. And all of the custom roms for other smartphones i've looked at, like LG G3 or G5 seem to have some bugs, or they are not up to date. I don't know is there a point in installing something like LineageOS 14, if that rom is out dated and has security holes in it.

Moto g7 play screen is 5.7 Inch but probably worth the extra screen size compared with other options
LineageOS 14.1 for this device (along with stock rom) is only 32bit so you are limited to only arm-eabi armv7 apps as apposed to later devices which are armv8 and support arm64 (64 bit) out the box

I've done some research and G7 for European market does not have removable battery, and there aren't any i can buy locally. I would like to buy locally because the shipping adds to the price. What about LG G5, would you recomend it if i put some stable and official rom on it?
Thanks in advance.
