Help with Korean LG G4 😭 UPDATE: Solved :) - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just received my Korean LG G4, everything worked well except one issue and I have to fix.
Making a call is annoying for example when I need to place a call I have to remove the international code for example +97150******* will give me invalid number so I have to edit each number in my contact list by removing +971 and just start with 05********
One more thing my G4 always act like I'm in korea, weather app and the widget on the look screen there are 2 o'clock my country (UAE) and Korea.
Any solution for these problems?

Did you check Home dialing prefix is enabled or not? If enabled, then disable it.
BTW, where did you buy the phone from? Crazydeals? How much?

1. For the international code problem something looks wrong, what happens when u need to call abroad?
Are your numbers synced with Google contacts?
Try the suggested fix in the reply by skr
2. Did you try changing the settings to obtain clock data from network? Or set by u to fix the time issue?
If it's the weather app Switch GPS on and let it aquire ur location, that should fix weather and clock.

It says this phone is unlocked but for some reason it's stuck with korea like the weather app and widget clock. GPS is turned on and more over i did a full reset twice while my sim inside incase this will solve it but it still.
Rooting the phone wasn't my target so to keep it updated with LG but even the root is not out yet to change the buid.prop
It says
ro.product.locale.language=ko <--- will change it to en
ro.product.locale.region=KR <--- and this to US

Strange, my weather and everything is in English. I just changed the language to English in settings. I am in Korea so can't help with dialer problem.
Sent from my LG-F500S using XDA Free mobile app

The weather app is in English but it will not find my place by GPS unless I chose manually

Hi
Can you reply my PM? Thanks

Hmmm maybe try allow mock location under dev options? Just an idea

Will do

UPDATE !!
Ok guys here is interesting update.
since any missed call that I received in my country should appears with the country code like this: +97150*******
so I decided to try something different, I tried to dial 0097150******* and it works !!!
that's interesting, anyone can find where is the problem? Looks like somthing inside the phone will not allow any outgoing call if started with +

Good news
Good news ... Solved the outcall issue, now I can call any number.
Under the Sitting --> Call --> International access number
I did the following change ( see the pic attached)
Just sharing this info in case anyone faced slimier issue

Anniversary SMS (autosend)

Hi,
I am looking to find a simple utility that would send a pre-defined Birthday / Anniversary sms to my contact based on the dates already available in Windows Mobile Contact information.
I have tried searching on this forum and on the net but to no luck. Does anyone know of any such software. The closest I could get was RJ SMS Scheduler but it requires us to feed in a schedule. I wish to find something that can look up the contact list and pick dates itself.
Thanks,
Umesh

Message taken! you could say I am lazy, unintentionally though, mostly due to lack of time. Intentionally, I would like not to miss a single event of the 400+ contacts I have on my phone list.
Can only imagine how glad they would be to hear from me on their special days and how happy I would be to know that I would never miss any good wishes for any of my good friends.

I checked this software but it is quite similar to so many others available on net. It requires us to set up a schedule to send the sms to particular contacts.
Instead I am suggesting the app could pick dates itself from the Window Mobile's Contact List and send sms from templates, we create and save in there. This way we do not have to add birthdates / anniversaries to Contact List and then set up another scheduled sms through a third party application for our purpose.
I hope I have managed to explain what I am looking for.
Thanks,
Umesh.
Ah, I see what you're asking for now. I don't know of anything that can do that, but it would be a good idea!
Any thoughts from anyone else to share knowledge of such an application ?
Thanks.
Not that easy
I'm looking for such application since a long time, but no luck. The application should also consider the following requirements:
MUST HAVE:
- choose the correct phone number, cuz the text messages should be sent only if a mobile number is available for the specific contact;
NICE TO HAVE:
- built the text message with a variable string where automatically should put the name of the contact;
- should have the possiblity of exclude some contacts from the auto-SMS in order to avoid sending the pre-configured SMS to your girlfriend for example
Will see if someone can manage it in the future.
P.S.: I have more that 400 birthday to remember
Ciao!

Thanks Mohit for putting this together. I've set it on my system though had some issues with display on Touch HD but was able to use the controls and set it up. Couple of questions that I had in mind -
1. Does it have to be left running at all times or can I at least shove it off my running task list.
2. Every time I add a new contact and his / her birthday do I have to update this software too to add the new contact to it's list.
But otherwise it seems to be a nice piece of work.
Thanks,
Umesh.

Hi Umesh,
Thanks,
well no need to keep it running as i am using notification que to run it at the designated time. like an alarm. so u can just exit after setting up every thing from options->save n exit
and about updating new contact u just need to open the app and click options-> "add contacts bday", it will automatically fetch the new one and update it. also it will remember the last message u had set up.

hey arnonrgo
i think that is just for the clock...but more like the LG Smart World App only has Korea country as the option not with other countries.
thanks!
sorry for hijacking, does qslide work with all apps or just lg apps? is there anything similar like it on play store?
Anyone can help with my issues??anyone has the LG smart world app or know how to change the language options as mine only has it in korean and country of choice is Korea only.
Thanks

That APP may be exclusive to that device and region at the moment. I would wait a bit to see if someone figures it out or the other regions actually get the device.

What worked for me is to register an LG account (I did that via the LG health app) and then I to log in the Smart world app using that login
it took it a couple of runs until the transfer was complete but now it is in Hebrew (my location is in Israel) instead of Korean
Hey arnonrgo....right I registered the health without and issue but with smart world the drop list of countries was just Korea so yeah pretty stuck on that one.

[Question] An additional option in Display Menu?

Hi everyone,
I noticed that there's an additional option in the "Display" menu.
It looks like some random number, which I have no idea what it is. Would hope that someone could provide some answers for me?
It's some ten digit number, I've removed part of it in the attached picture.
Model: A3003
OxygenOS 3.2.6
Strange, i've never seen this... I think you are the first who have this. Maybe somebody can help. Good luck :good:

i contacted OnePlus support, it's due to me selecting English (Singapore). Was advised to change it to English (United States) and it is now showing the correct wordings!

this is the toggle for pocket mode. some people have been seeing these numbers instead of pocket mode. try clearing the cache or rebooting the phone. it should go and pocket mode should come up.

see time stamp in default messaging app

Hello,
I've noticed that I cannot see the time stamps of messages. I'm curious to know if we can enable the time stamps in messages. Or slide the message to the left or right to get the time stamp as it works in iMessage...
Just give the message bubble a tap and you'll see the time stamp.

At least for the "Korean/Japanese"...
If I'm understanding correctly, try changing the language to English -- drag down notification bar, click the cog, go to System (second option from the bottom), then Languages & Input (selection the topmost option), Language Preferences (topmost option), and move English to the top (hold down 3 lines next to it) and/or click green plus on the bottom of the list and add English (US)....
If I'm understanding correctly, you trying to work your phone when everything is in Asian lettering would make things exponentially more difficult to figure out and troubleshoot...
Good luck to ya and hope this helps...
