Mine works fine on AT&T I get HSDPA, however just like the LG lucid if you reset the phone, it wont go pass the activation screen unless you use a verizon simcard.
I am sure there is a key combination to bypass it, I just havent figured it out yet.

Hello Guys,
What's up? I was wondering if I could buy a sprint LG G2 and can use it for my ATT carrier with unofficial unlock. Pls let me know everything works on sprint LG G2! (4G, ESN etc) Thanks in advance.
Even if Sprint "officially" unlocks your LG G2, it won't work with domestic GSM carriers like AT&T or TMobile. It will work unlocked with international SIM cards and international networks.
So, no.
I have the Verizon G2.
Been using straight talk sim.
The phone works great, but I'd like to get rid of the Verizon junk.
What rom works best for this?
I didn't know the g2 had rooms
Lol jkjk I would have to say liquid smooth

Hey man, I have the opportunity to trade my Surface RT for a Verizon LG G2. I use straight talk and currently have a tmobile Note 2 with the straight talk/att sim card. I just wanted to make sure that I can bring that same sim over to the Verizon G2 and have no issues. Any help would be great, thanks!

well since the Verizon g2 is factory unlocked it should work right out of the box with any carrier as long as it uses the network bands
After reading stuff i figured that all G2's are world phones.
Im From india and my question is that if i get a G2 of ebay sprint one with a bad ESN, since it cant be activated on sprint again which is a given.
Now my question is can buy the phone and use it with a regular GSM sim card from india ?
If yes what would i need to do to use the phone if it has a Bad ESN.
Any kind of answer would be helpful thanks a ton
Help
I don't think a Sprint G2 would work in India, sorry. Sprint is a US carrier and uses CDMA instead of GSM. However, the international D802 model should work fine. The ESN is attached to the phone and not the carrier anyway, so no matter what carrier your on it won't activate.
The Sprint G2 is not factory unlocked for international GSM usage. It is an international capable device though (GSM 850/900/1800/1900). If the seller is not specifically stating that the phone has been unlocked for international use then it will not work in India. Only Sprint can unlock the phone and if your not the owner of the phone with an active line with Sprint they wont unlock it for you plain and simple. I would recommend to save your self a big hassle and buy the international G2 D802.

No problem, I forgot to mention that the Verizon G2 is factory unlocked for GSM service. You could buy a BAD ESN Verizon G2 and put in your India GSM sim card and it would work with no unlocking necessary. I'm not sure what band you need for LTE, but HSPA+ should work.

sorry i meant d800
Hey I was wondering if I unlocked my LG G2 from T-Mobile would I be able to use it on AT&T's network? I would like to still get 4G LTE but I'm not sure thats possible. I asked a AT&T representative and they said that I would get AT&T's 4G LTE after registering my IMEI and with the correct APN settings. Can anyone confirm this? Thank you very much for any responses.
I used an AT&T SIM and the Go Phone $60 plan on my unlocked D801 for trip to Alaska in May and got LTE in many places. Use "phone" as the APN.

Oh okay thanks. For some reason I heard that a lot of people didn't get good data speeds or something like that. Maybe those people didn't fix the APN or the IMEI
Bump?
