LG G2 (Korea Version F320) - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please excuse my ignorance.
Can anyone tell me what LTE bands that the F320 supports. I understand that there are 3 variants in Korea. S, L and K.
Do they all support different bands? Is there a reason they don't support the same bands as the D802? Is there anyway i can flash a modem from D802 onto a f320 model to get more LTE band support.
This is probably a stupid question but i'm just curious as to whether i should import or not.

Why you made double post? You can't search?
Why my topics get closed and these get more and more?

No way. That's the whole point of different model. If there would be a way why they'll didn't just make one common model in the first place?

[Q] Whats difference between D800 , D801 , D802 and D803?

hi
i want to buy a LG G2.but I'm hesitating between two options
One of the most important things that i want from the phone, it is a good development.
Which model of LG G-2 has better support & development ? (Or will support In future)
And what is the difference between these models? (D800, D801, D802, D803) In my country, there is only D802 for sale.
Each model is for a different cell company.
Which model is international?
in fact which of these models is the original and general model?
When L9 was released P768 model released here. Developer of the conventional model, the model p760. Before I buy this phone, i want to make sure that this version will be well supported by developers.
I think you know what I mean.

I would think that would depend on the developer. Each of the models uses a different base (thus the different model numbers) Some are are easier to start with as others are more gunked up. It simply depends on which one the developers prefer working with. Either way, whatever phone company you are with you will still be able to get a rom for it no matter what base the developers use. I think the d802 model is the international one.
D802 is the international version
yeah, thanks!

Do a simple search bro
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
I'm sure the D803 (Canadian) will work on the 3G network for AT&T,T-Mobile/MetroPCS.
Do you guys know if it would also work on LTE for AT&T and T-Mobile? Rogers uses LTE bands 2100 / 2600 MHz but the phone is also compatible with Telus and Bell. I hope one of the Canadian carriers use the same LTE band as T-Mobile...
D803 version
Does this version has themes? The AT&T version does not have the themes option..
what does that mean for the rom devs ? I have a d802 and i want a rom that supports d800. So is there a hardware difference or can i install d800 roms on d802 ?
Specs for D801
I am planning buy D801 with Wind , but when i do little research in my ,country, they sell D802. So my question is Can I use D801 for international ?

FYI, this is generally correct however at least one Canadian carrier (Wind) uses the D801.

Is there a hardware difference the variants? I know for the canadian galaxy s3 you just had to flash the att version recovery and all the roms would work fine

I have the Videotron version and it is the D801. Still no KitKat update, but since T-Mo is updating now I don't think it will take very long to get it from Videotron.

You can install ROMs for the d802 onto the d803. However, you must install a d803 kernel right after, before booting!
I've run the d802 version of SlimKat with the d803 kernel from dr87 without issues.
D803 ROMs and kernels are in the LG G2 Original Android Development forum. There's actually quite a few of them available in there.

If the only difference in hardware is frequencies yes you can install .. Make sure you flash the orginal kernel (d802 kernel) right after flashing the rom.

[Q] Changing Radio Basebands

Hi there,
I am wondering if I can change the basebands/modem from my D801 T mobile G2 to work with the international D802 basebands since I am moving to germany. Can we just flash a new modem to get different LTE bands since it's a S800, as qualcomm said the first world LTE processor?
thanks a lot

Not that i'm aware of. Check the tmo bands and see if they are compatible with the common german carriers. Otherwise I would just sell your G2 on swappa and purchase another.
that is what i will end up doing if necessary, can someone confirm this is not possible at all? thanks!
up
It's not possible to change the bands a phone operates under. Here are the bands the different versions use (taken from Wikipedia) so you can check if the 801 will work with whichever carrier you're planing on going with.
AT&T - D800
GSM 850/900/1800/1900UMTS 850/1900/2100LTE 1900(2)/1700(4)/850(5)/700(17)

GSM 850/1900CDMA 800/850/1900UMTS 850/1900LTE 1900(25)/800(26)/2500(41)
T-Mobile - D801

Please help asap

HI, really sorry if this is a noob question but would someone be able to answer this asap. I live in the UK and purchased an S5 off ebay it stated it was the SM-G900F (UK varient I believe) but upon delivery I checked and its the SM-G900S which is the Korean vairent.
So I put my sim in and it displays that im roaming which is obviously wrong. Can I just flash a UK rom and will everything work like uk varient or is the radio bands or anything else different. Please answer asap as I will need to contact ebay.
Also is this 4G version and will it work in UK?

Here are the specs http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=5448&c=samsung_sm-g900s_galaxy_s5_lte-a_samsung_pacific and here http://www.droidgod.com/2014/05/samsung-galaxy-s5-sm-g900s-full-specifications-features/. It looks quite similar for the G900F but check if the supportd LTE bands are compatible.

No, LTE bands are defined in the radio chip. You cannot change these bands by flash a different rom or modem.

Yes, as the cpu/gpu, screen and reoslution are similar i guess you could do that. Don`t know the supported LTE bands of the 900S though. Maybe its best to file a complaint to Ebay about the seller misleading you as you probably will not have warranty either.

[Q] G2 Korean vs Europe Versions

Hello guys.
I'm thinking about buying LG G2 for myself, and i really like Korean version since removable battery and SD card.
... So that's why I have few questions about that version.
Anyone here know what are differences between F320S, F320K and F320L? Anyone of those are better than other?
Will they work normally in Europe? I mean calls, LTE etc. Are they same standard GSM, UMTS, LTE as D802? I'm from Poland.
Will it be possible to change ROM (for Language, battery drain, etc)?
Is this good idea to have this version in Europe or this phone will be troubleshooting?
rom 5.0.2
i have got vodafone 5.0.2 official if u want

Yotaphone 2 Frequency and Radio Firmware - AT&T

Hey guys -
So like many of you, I reflashed my two Yotas to the latest RU Lollipop and was wondering if there was another radio firmware file that might wake up the AT&T US LTE bands. Any thoughts? Has anyone tried flashing the different radios to see if you can get a 4G LTE signal stateside?
Thanks,
Rootdude

HSPA+ can be sometimes very good - 3-15Mb/s - what is your speed at the moment? can you check through speedtest.net ?
At&t firmware
I have around 3.5 mbs to download and 0.6 uploaf. Too small comparing local 4G. So, can you help us?
I do not think you can change that easily, there's a thread talking about changing Radio Bands but the conclusion I got from the reading is that it does not work, at least with current "user" knowledge, YD206 is from China or HongKong, and some of those LTE Bands can work in Europe, not so much on the USA, the bands that USA telephone companies are very different than Europe or Asia, and as such YD206 IS NOT compatible with USA LTE bands. UMTS can have much higher upload speed than the ones you posted, so it might be your network problem, don't know if they are any better in LTE over your region.
Should be possible
Qualcomm 8974 supports all LTE bands. We just need proper modem firmware for US bands. Method in those threads definitely doesn't work since Qualcomm introduced some hidden filters inside firmware
BTW, there is lte_prefferedband file in the modem folder of Yota EFS. Does anyone know how to edit it?
That might be a anti-tampered code against our NV changes
Ok, I found out. For AT&T we need qcn file from Yotaphone 2, model 205. I don't know it such thing exist on the market but this reference says that it might be compatible with At&T.

interesting thing is that YD205 model was never launched, so it doesn't exist at all, unfortunately. The inquiries about future developments of this model were negative...
