Hi guys,
First of all I would like to know some good sites with shipping to Italy where I can buy oem/original/good quality front and rear panel in red.
Also I was wondering if there is any loudspeaker aftermarket to put on!
P.S: any news on a battery replacement of 2800/3000mAh? always a dream
Thank you all!

Bought a white 900 at the Microsoft Store tonight.
Suffers from the purple screen problem, and the rattling vibration problem. Also the camera is not as good as my original Titan.
Wanted to love it but it's going back.

first two issues can be solved by replacing it, which they will for sure, and the camera issue is more software than hardware, so an update will fix it as well.
Interestingly, the one I got didn't already have the Nokia update on it. This tells me that the white ones were manufactured right alongside of the black and cyan ones and just held back for a couple of weeks. That's not a surprise, but it means that just because the white ones came out a little later, we shouldn't expect any of the quirks to have been addressed.
The camera quality is disappointing to the point where I am wondering whether I have a defective unit. The picture quality reminds me of a first-generation plasma TV, before the technology had achieved good contrast ratios... for example there are areas of color staining, and of solarization, especially in low-light conditions. I also have artifacts that are clearly in a ring shape as if the lens cover has some imperfections or reflections in it.
From what I am reading, the rattling is widespread and possibly even on all units, while the purple tinge is only on some units. I can't live with either.
I love the device's physical design, and Nokia's exclusive apps are very cool indeed... but my Titan just works better.
If the rattle is in all the units i will not be getting the device. that is a deal breaker for me, sadly.
Well I have the cyan and plan on getting the white tomorrow..i experienced rattling the first day and after that it was totally fine...camera doesn't give me any purplish tinge but the quality isn't so great in low light..also when u exchange make sure u look for the green dot on the box

Both the original one I got and the replacement had green dots and both had the exact same problems of purple tint on 'low' brightness setting, and excessive rattling during vibration.
I had the replacement for only 2 minutes.
The phone is physically gorgeous and in fact I already miss it! But I just can't live with the 2 problems and the camera that's not as good as the Titan's.

wow you really had two lemons on your hand. I still have my original unit, and yes, the vibration rattle was present, but I don't know if I got used to it, or if it actually went silent with time. You can still hear it, but not as loud as when I first got it. I bought the black one from Rogers.
I don't know what the big deal about the "rattle" is. The sim holder vibrates a bit internally when the phone vibrates, it's really not that bad. If you're listening for it you'll hear it, but with the phone in your pocket you don't notice it and it doesn't affect the function at all.

Exactly. It doesn't seem any louder than my old Captivate when vibrating, and while it is a little noisier than my iPhone 3G was, at least I can actually feel this one from my pocket. Much ado about nothing, if you ask me.

While the rattle on my cyan didn't bother me one bit. I can confirm my white one doesn't do this.
Hi guys
Looking to upgrade from my Galaxy S4 i9500 which has been loyal to me for the past 2 years. I work in IT so I get to do lot of mobile work on my phone. Looking for a phone with a larger screen 5.5-5.8 for a budget of up to $550.
Looking at the specs`of all the recently released devices, the LG G4 stands strong and the price is great ($430 new on eBay). I don't really care for a finger print sensor. Maybe in a week after the release of V10 or G4 Pro, the price will drop even more.
so if you were me at this point of time, would you buy the LG G4 again? Go for a different device?
peace!
tom
I bought it recently It is great
The only phones I can compare to the G4 -for me- are:
*Moto X-Style for its metal body, front facing camera flash light, stock android experience, cool Motorola Gestures, out of the box quick charger (Quick Charging 34% in 15 min), 52 score in water and dust resistance (however some youtube videos showed G4 resisting water too but nothing official), front facing speakers with a nice camera score Dxomark. However, you may need to watch comparisons between it and G4 to tell which you would prefer, I am still loving the G4 manual mode..
also I think Moto X-Style will get better custom roms support than G4 specially other models than 815.
*and Nexus 6P for its metal body, Greater camera score in Dxomark site !! no comparisons available yet with G4 !! fingerprint sensor, Google fast and direct updates, front facing speakers and bigger battery but no sdcard, and it will have much more custom roms than the other 2 phones..
In case you went for any of them, you will miss the Pedometer, IR blaster, Quick Circle case view and Manual Shutter speed in the G4
Hi M7mdA7md7sein
Thank you very much for your detailed answer, the 2 alternative devices you have mentioned are exactly the 2 I was considering!
I think that your answer and my research has led me toward the N6p.
Thanks a bunch!
My previous was S4 as well.
Just got mine yesterday. So far, so good.
I was between G4 and Moto X Style. Since I got G4 for much less, I went for it.
Basically, I was all the way to X Style, but camera. I use camera a lot, and G4's camera is cool. Still learning though (auto gave me some bad pics in low light).
That's it. As already written, my concern is about ROMs /root / community support, but it's too soon to tell everything about it (for me).
I'd stay far away from this phone, especially if you are heavy into the modding scene. I bought mine at launch and it has been nothing but a headache for me, but I have plenty of phones to compare it to, so based upon my usage, this will be my first phone to sell as soon as that time comes. For the price, you could spend a little bit more and get a phone with a hell of a lot more dev support and a better overall build quality. This is one of the very few phones that still has the microsd slot and a battery that can be changed, but with today's technology that is no longer a necessity for me anymore. I am on my 2nd unit and I have had nothing but issues. There are plenty of people that love this phone, but for me, this stays on my desk more than my calculator does... If these features are what you need on a phone then go right ahead, but I just thought I would add my opinion because not everyone is happy with this device. Take a look around the forums and I do believe this is what you will see, and not a whole lot more...
Hi Tom,
I have owned the G4 since mid July and I still think it is brilliant. My only wish would be for a nice easy root path. I continue to run the device completely stock and haven't done anything to it at all. In the end my phone is a work horse before it is a toy.
I wrote a review of this phone back at the end of July - http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-review-t3167563 which I have just re-read and I still agree with what I wrote. Since then the leather back of my phone how shows a few marks but has held up well over all. Mostly I have a darkening and polishing of the corners which correspond to how I hold the phone when playing games or surfing the web.

I think what sums it up though is my wife wants a phone with a better camera than what she has currently and I am seriously thinking about recommending the g4.
Ps photos were taken with the G4
You are welcome
Glad to help ) Hope you will enjoy this phone
Hello, I' here yet again with another set of questions!
I am planning on using my OP3T to make short movies. It has a great powerful camera competing Galaxy S8 and Iphone7 so why not use it, right?
I am currently looking for rather cheap but quality equipment such as mounts and lenses. (I own a tripod, light and mic already).
I came across some really cheap stuff on ebay: Flexible tripod, 5-in-1 lens set, 8-in-1 lens set...
I have no expirience with those lenses... Are those clip ons any good? Could someone point me to the ones you think are the best sets?
I've been searching alot and i don't wanna buy some crap, so any shared expirience will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
I have some really cheap clip on lens and they're of really bad quality. The lens used is very bad. If you want good ones maybe buy Aukey or Mpow lens. Btw the wide angle and 12x lens are kinda okay. Fisheye is really bad. Macro was the best out of them.
Sorry I'm afraid your wrong go for the s7 edge if you want to make small films
So here where I live I can get an HTC 10 (used but in good condition) for around 160$ to 200$. Seems like good price for a 2016 flagship, with specs that's really pretty decent to this day.
However we all know specs don't mean much in used phones. I wanna know from your experience if you own one, the commons real life cons of this phone like: is it slow? Is the battery life bad and if so, can it be improved? Is the price that (160$-200$) actually a good price? Is the sound (headphones on and speakers) quality good? And so on....
What are the pros?
I would really like to know since I always wanted one but back then I didn't have the money to afford one.
Thanks in advance everyone!
Headphone quality is awesome. Speaker is on the low side. If I'm at the gym I can't hear my timer beeping. Also the sound quality on video recordings is amazing, so if you go out to any live shows and you try to record something, the sound will actually be good and not distorted at all.
No.
The battery dies after 2-3 year usage. Buying a HTC10 used is a really bad idea.
Hi everyone,
so long story short, I broke the display on my whyred and bought a new one from ebay (www.ebay.de/itm/113122993026)
it has about 20% lower brightness than my original one and yellowish colors
Please comment here if you have bought a replacement display and it has the same brightness as the original one.
thanks
