Hello guys,
I bought my father an LG G3 and I can't decide if I want to swap it for my LG G2. I know that the G3 has slight overheating problem, but there is a fix. It is running stock right now, but I always use CM on my devices for maximum performance on old devices like ours. Can someone with CM or any lightweight AOSP ROM run an Antutu benchmark? It is preferable if you don't have crazy amount of apps so the results are as good as possible. I know that the benchmark isn't everything, but it will at least give me an idea if it is worth it reading 2 hours of information about rooting and flashing.
I am happy with my G2. I get 51k on CM13. He gets 50k on stock. The only thing I really like for now is the display and the solid metal band around the display. In your opinion - is worth it swapping the phones or not? Is it a big jump in performance?
I will be very happy if you do the tests and save me time to flash only to test. Thanks.
Don't swap it man! What model/country is the G3? You should update to Android M, you'll get better performance if it's available. CM 13 is also a stable rom but I'm currently stock Marshmallow and getting

How much do you get on Antutu on stock? Can you check on CM13?

I am getting 53k after installing all my needed apps. I used to have CM 13 but don't want to go through the trouble of downgrading to KitKat, flashing, etc. Sorry if it isn't the answer you were looking for...

Helo guys , I have just got off a friendly chat with my close friend who works for the LG Android Team in India and who are testing currently the software..
as per him the OGP E988 ( for now ) will recieve the 4.2 update by last week of Jan or 3rd week
This is confirmed info .. so another 2-3 weeks..
As he said all of the engineers are asked to prioritise updates for G2 than Gpro .. be it work or anything and engineers are working weekends to deliver for G2 first..
Such a shame after all this time we only get 4.2 (They should at least give us 4.3 with Trim function)
SO only 4.2 but no KitKit??
Can't tell Its a good or bad news ???
Better 4.2 than nothing
its bad news that take them too long
but 4.2.2 is nice update after all better then nothing
and maybe it will help our great devs port KK from lg g2
4.2 too bad

That is good news..Something is better than nothing..
OG Pro is already too awesome with the stock 4.1.2..4.2.2 will mean only better things!
Hope it releases soon.

I think it's bad news considering we are on 4.4.2 now on CM official nightly. And yes could bring great performance and New apps, but won't you still feel like **** knowing you are on jelly bean while all other phones are on kitkat, maybe even better 5.0 by June next year(2014). I say join custom rooms and forget official outdated outdates.

I know being on 4.1.2 right now seems like left behind. But I have used 4.4.2 and not so impressed. The LG stock as modified in these forums is much better than other brand stock roms and the performance is better than my experience with the 4.4.2 custom roms.

One can't just undermine the lg stock 4.1.2. With root access and xposed frameworks it works like a charm. Never had a random reboot or any freeze for the first few weeks i used it. Heck at one time i had 500+ hours uptime.
Though i have moved on to slimkat now. That's another beauty. Most stable kitkat rom IMO

I don't like 4.2
Oh my Kitkat
Can someone explain how this will work? are the games rendered at 2560*1440 or is it 1920*1080 scaled? or is it up to the game developers how this works?
I like the LG G3 but I'm a little concerned about the extreme resolution and how it will effect gaming performance, I'm probably worrying about nothing and Android has a way of handling this but I want to be sure.
Thanks in Advance.

The games with 1080P Resolutions will run on 1080P resolution itself. Its like watching a 720P movie on a 1080P display. Unless they come up with the new Quad HD [xxxhdpi] trend.

Until everything catches up. The only real qhd stuff will be the wallpapers and lg specific apps.

Okay, so it sounds like games are upscaled somehow or the internal target resolution still remains 1080p?
How about emulators like N64 or PS, if they have no option to set resolution will they be forced to use 2560*1440 when going fullscreen?

Just give the devs some time and Im sure they will bypass the bootloader in one way or another. The phone hasnt hit the global market yet.

as long as t-mo doesn't pull the stunt they did with g2 then you would be able to root g3 on t-mo
So on the g2 t-mo released there variant on 10c we had easy root access and it was easily exploitable for loki usage; fast forward about 8 months to the killer kitkat update for the g2 it took the devs exactly 6 days to figure out a workaround to use loki but 13 days total because we needed the source from lg(they slowed us down), fast forward to late April early May the ls980 finally got kitkat and autoprime(awesome dev) figured out a way to root using the stock recovery and shared it with the community and suddeny there were a lot of reports that the d801 t-mo variant was not being rooted, that there devices were being wiped and it turns out that for some reason t-mo removed access to the stock recovery, it was still there but it was only there for the factory reset option and so root was not and still is not possible on the t-mo g2 all the t-mo users need to downgrade to 4.2 root and either update to kk and hope root survives for those without supersu pro that had survival mode or downgrade to 4.2 root/custom recovery and then install a flashable 4.4 rom for there variants
so if you read my mini rant I suggest you wait until after the g3 is released on t-mo and we have more available information
Does anyone know who our maintainer is? Just curious who I should be stalking on twitter/G+. Curious to see how well this thing performs on AOSP.

I would also be curious to see CM on the G3, but this is the first phone I've had that didn't make me want to flash another rom right away. Xposed + G3 TweakBox + Nova Launcher makes it just about perfect imo.

Perhaps so, but
1. That says more about Touchwiz than anything.
2. This is my first LG smartphone, so I have no other frame of reference to compare, and the G3 UI is actually tolerable. Which is more than I can say for most of the other phones I've owned.
Just my $0.02

Yeah I own almost every phone that comes out.... currently I own the M8, One plus One and G3 from the android side. I keep switching between all three and still I can't pick a clear winner since they all are awesome to use it on a daily basis. From the LG side this is the first phone I actually like and planning to keep for little long because their previous UI was horrible and cartoonish and this one feels so much better polished. As far as the S5 and touchwiz I couldn't tolerate the damn thing even for a week.

Is that true about the battery life? I'm not trying to troll, just wanna get another's opinion on this. Every phone I've owned I've flashed CM on, but I don't think I've ever actually gotten extra battery life from it.

You can potentially get a few extra minutes with a custom kernel, but battery life is primarily determined by usage habits, which varies with each person.

As the title states I would like to rom my vk810 Verizon 8.3 gpad. I really don't care about GPS or mobile data as I don't use either on this device. Will any of the CM11 roms and others work on this device? Will I lose anything else?
My tablet is a little sluggish and loaded with Verizon typical bloatware. I would love to have a rom more similar to my lg g2 4.4.2 rom I am running. Dual screen would be nice on this tablet.

The only ROMs that'll work on our VK810.4G are ones specifically made for our variant. You can't use V500 or V510 ROMs at all, don't even try it.

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up. The stock rom is laggy compared to my g2 phone but that one is running a modified stock rom so maybe thats why it blows this tablet out of the water.
