Hello everyone, im coming from an xperia S, tomorrow i will receive a package with an lg optimus g inside, i just want to know if it worth the money, i'm very familiar with the hardware on it, and i really like that it is/was a beast regarding specs, Im from argentina, and here, this phone is recently arriving to some operators, i cought it in a good price and i bought it.
The issue i have with the xperia S is that the phone is very slow, but most important it has the bootloader locked, and cannot be unlocked by any way, so i can't install custom roms, or change kernels, that sort of things. I dont want this happens again with this phone, certainly, i should ask before buy the phone, but well.. here i am, what's the status of this phone about software updates (official and from unofficial developers), what do you think about LG and their update schedule? are you guys happy? or not?, i will be able to install custom roms, change kernels and those things with my carrier-sim-locked phone?
Thanks in advance!! i really love the xda community!! but im sad to say that every phone i bought was a fiasco, from an atrix (never got 4.0.4), then xperia S (i was running 4.0.4 without the ability to install custom roms, it just suck!!!! but few days ago i just received 4.1.2, with some bugs) i dont want the optimus G became another failure, and i dont like samsung smartphones, i just dont like it became so popular, that every guy with some money buy them and just use them with stock laggy firmware.
Well.... with no more to say, thank you all in advance, and a big welcome to myself to the comunity :silly:

it should be compatible. But why don't you buy SW2??? 1st Gen has a lot of problems. if the price is within your budget, just go for 2nd Gen. You can find it cheaper on eBay than your local store.

i'm thinking about trading my iPhone 5S for a LG G3.
i've had a LG G2 and i totally loved the phone.
Does somebody have good reasons to trade (or not to trade) ?
Thanks in advance!

Is anyone selling a LG Optimus G Pro in a decent condition? I don't need mint but I'd prefer minor scratches at the most. Only the device (preferably unlocked) itself is needed. Thanks in advance.
Edit: Nvm I bought one
