I sold my htc amaze a few months ago to buy the n9 and im getting tired of not having any app selections (it was cool at first), and the one x looks pretty sick. found someone on craigslist that is willing to trade but he dropped the phone and the screen doesn't turn on. he has a new digitizer for it but not an LCD. They aren't too expensive on ebay (found one for like $40). he said the phone turns on and everything works (capacitive buttons, sound, etc). The thing im worried about is if it has water damage, is there any way to find out? and if not do you guys think its worth it?
thanks
edit: nevermind did more searching on the water damage indicator and found it. still would like to know your opinions/advice though
A screen repair requires the digitiser and LCD. Just do a search for broken screen threads here.

thanks for your reply. yeah ive watched a few videos on it but since they are selling the LCDs on ebay separated from the digitizer I figured you could replace it itself..
edit: im reading on other threads that they are two separate units? some people are saying they are on unit and others are saying the opposite. starting to wonder if its worth it..

Official ones come as one unit and cost more. It'll cost about 150 UK pounds for official repair. Factor that into your cost, and the fact that it's second hand, and the fact you can't test it properly... Is it worth it? I doubt it, but a working One X is an incredible device.

this is what im looking at: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-LCD-DIS...930?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c7451912 you don't think this would be real? it also has 30 days money back so if it isn't the real deal..
Don't do it, go for a proper second hand device a fully working one, better to have the original screen as it's a lovely screen.

thank you, ill take your advice. it seems not many people are interested in the n9 as much as I thought they would.
It always feels good to have a new device which is fresh and you are much sure that it doesn't have a defect or something, if you're are looking for some advice, well for me, i will personally tell you that go and just buy a new one ( Fresh like Dougie )

hahah, I didn't mean "here" as in the XDA community. im talking about my state. or the majority of people in general I guess
my Nokia n9 is smoother than my Amaze I had before it. I just cant do without the apps D:
Hi,
To cut the long story short I have come out with the idea of separate forum for Indian users so as to better understand the issues and also to have tight and easy context to our problems.
Withi a week of buying this phone, I had to visit service centre. It never happend with my any other previous phones. Obivoulsy this is becasuse of locked bootloader and stupid stone-age problmes in LG Flash tool like "low battery error"
Anyway, lets discuss all development and flashing related aspects of this version over here. Hope this benefits all.
FInally, Moderators may feel to redirect or route to alternatives, if any. Thank you.
Its a nice thought but Indian Optimus G pro users are already minority among the very limited user base of the Optimus G pro. I only wish more people knew about this amazing phone. For 27k INR its a steal nowadays.
For starters check out the stickies thread from the android development side. Its an amazing guide for the e988 based users. Helped me a lot.

Yes. I have disabled security before flashing recovery. I have flashed recovery through freegee app itself. After that the phone got into bootloop. After that I could not get it started. Tried flashing stock ROM through lg flashtool.but always got stuck due to low battery error. So finally went to service centre.

and cromaretail is selling the 32gb version for that price, i got the 16gb one at that price fom flipkart that too cashback i will get in jan.
And i guess price drop is because of being stuck in 4.1.2, while buyin most dont care for roms just the current stock version
Ordered it from croma today, the black one went out of stock so had to settle for the white one.
Upgrading from Lg Optimus 2x after using it for 2 years.
Man it's very tough to find G Pro in retail stores, searched em all in Koramangala/Forum side even the much Hyped Google/spice "AndroidLand Store" didnt have it , only univercell had it , no one else not even croma itself , Lg Phone's distribution n/w is real poor in India ,speaking from previous experience, if any storekeeper has LG you'll only find G pro lite or G2 ,
I ordered for 24,500 from croma retail , it's a loot considering the specs but i am pretty sure we wont see the Android update atleast for the next 6 months if at all , same thing happened with Optimus 2x but atleast Lg did provide it with Stable ICS some good months later. With not much of a difference b/w release dates of G,G pro ,G2 and Lg never calling G pro their Flagship , I seriously doubt any updates , but still those specs for that price is awesome.
I Flashed CM on my Optimus 2x the day i bought it , I hope this time around i use Stock a bit more
only thing from my wishlist that this phone didnt fulfill was Dual sim and LTE that would work in India but then no expensive phone had dual sim and No one knows India's LTE bands with sureity

I looked at it and it is impressive, but I'll definitely wait for support to kick in before investing on it, ColorOS is nice but buggy as reported by the current owners, other than than everyone says the hardware is awesome, and the quick charge unbelievable.

So far the best option for me seems like lg g2 or the upcoming g3
the find 7 doesnt have any support and accesories
one plus one seems like a good option cause its so damn cheap
G3

hTC M8....
If only I could afford :silly:
I think I might sell my OGP. I've picked up a new 32gb Nexus 5 in white on sale through ebay here and a new Sony Xperia Z1 C6906 LTE and decide which one to keep (if not both!)

Hello,
I have an LG G3 (D855) wich is now protected by a screenprotector and a silicon back case. However since short i have a second little home right near the coast. Ofcourse this brings alot of sand and dust and also spits of water with it. Can anyone show me wich case is suitable for me. I don't mind if it brings some extra bulk or weight with it. I just wanna protect my phone to all these factors.
Thanks in advance!
what do you guys think of this one?

You should post this question in lg g2 accessories forum. It will probably serve you better.

Why sould i post it in the LG G2 forum if i have an G3 ??
I bought the case tuesday 7/25/17 from the official website and go it 7/26/17. I haven't seen no posts about it yet so I think I may be the first to own one, I don't know. But I absolutely love the design. I bet you guys won't be disappointed

Sorry to burst your bubble but you're not the first to own it. At least three other people own it now, including me. And on another forum there is a 9 page active thread about it.

I never owned a Powerbear and didn't hear the best things but I liked how they were a medium capacity and not Max capacity battery case. Zero lemon goes all out which is great but I'd rather have like a 3500-5000 mAh battery case than the 8000 one. That one is nice nonetheless.
