My growing LG G family. - G3 General

My growing G family.
From the G1 way back in 2008
to
The newest G3.
The only one missing from the picture is the G2.
Never had it.

The G1 wasn't made by LG. It was made by HTC...

I'm pretty sure when the title says "my LG G family" it means he did.

Well.....
Let me amend my original post.
My growing G family.
Charged the G1 and it had so many updates I had to say maybe later.....
It's so amazing by looking at the UI that Android has come so far in six or so years.

I know I sure do. Never go anywhere without my g1

One thing that i like with lg g series, is at least they are tryng to improve the design (G2 to G3). You can spot the difference. Unlike with other manufacturer whos trying to stick with their traditional design.

I used the G1 way back in 2008. It was one of, if not the first
Android phone. I had a Nokia N95 at the time and was way into Symbian but, the screen broke and was way too expensive to fix so
went to Andy and the rest is history.

Some would say that launching a device called iPhone a decade after the whole i- prefix went out of style would be a pretty bad decision too.
Edit: btw this entire thread belongs in Sapphire forum.

Yea the name is very lame. should have been G2. Any idea if it will come in black?
Is there any hardware benefit? I can't find the specs on google.

Hero vs. other phones re: speed

Hi all,
First post, but I've been lurking for a bit.
Anyway, I just got my Hero with Sprint about a week ago and am running DamageControl's current ROM. It's a killer phone, but from what I understand the Droid has more processing power. I've got another 3 weeks to give back everything and get free Droids with Verizon.
I know this is a Hero forum, but I wondered if anybody knew of a "benchmarking" resource for all Android phones.....
thanks!
PS You guys are amazing! I can't believe the amount of product that comes out of this board.
as we all know, the hero was obsolete was 6 months before it came out. youll go broke trying to keep up. save up your months with sprint and get the evo when it comes out, you wont regret it ;-)

whats after that? lol
i like the hero and am willing to stick with it until the evo, and as for whatever comes out after that...i dont know. (android, htc, ect) will eventually release their own iPad, im sure, but i guess its a matter of what YOU want. i got a great plan with sprint (54$ for unlmtd everything) with great coverage (detroit it a major city, its bound to be set up good for the 3G user) and a highly customizable phone to say the least (ill admit i was disappointed when i got the hero, learned of the nexus and all the new upncumins) and am excited to move onto the evo, and can wait patiently.
well, idk about patiently...but ill be waiting...

I was able to see the evo up and running the other day.... WOW. Slim and sleek and very fast... took about a 1/3 or less of the time it took the Hero to open stuff. It was running on 2.1 as well and look really similar to Damages 2.1v5 ROM. This handset is going to really help out Sprint. Only thing the one I saw lacking was they hadn't activated the 4g on it yet.

Yeah, after studying competing prices, I don't know that I could stomach what everybody else is charging. I just don't get how anybody is competing with Sprint at this point!
I'm paying $129 -%15 for two lines, 1500 minutes, web, txt, and mobile-to-mobile. ANYBODY else charges $40-80 a month more!
I guess it's good for us they're so desperate for customers
PS I'm curious as to the price of the EVO. Any guesses?

At least until the next android update (Froyo) is out. I believe Froyo is supposed to support 4G natively
haha, yeah it does. they had it on another phone of theirs in the past (winmo). I wonder what video formats will be supported natively. I hope they add .avi support.

Thank god that one of the best android phones ever is able to be rooted. If the G2 was not able to be rooted, i think that that would just be going against the whole "open source" theme that android is going for ,.

Um, hate to tell you, but HTC and T-Mobile have pretty clearly demonstrated their stance of Free Open Source Software. The whole idea of locking us out goes against the spirit of Linux and Open Source. They are taking the work of others, and using it to turn a profit, screw the user in the process.
My G2 goes back this week. **** you T-Mobile, you just gained another b-stock G2.
Got mine til next Sunday. If no perm root by then, its going back. Guess ill have to stick with the vibrant, but oh well, at least its rootable.

give it time the vibrant is a nice phone no doubt but the g2 will have way more support for one being HTC and two being stock so being able to mod things for the g2 willsorta be how the nexus one is..which has great support who knows g2 might have 3.0 before samsung has 2.2 lol dont quot me either way you have a great phone
I understand, believe me. But I got this phone for its speed, which it def has, its support, being HTC, and the root ability, which is not here, yet at least. I need tether, bad. I hate the vibrant, but its so easily rootable. And I have tether. Had sprint and the evo. Left it for this phone. No regrets other than the crap they pulled on this phone. I wanted the hspa speeds, the vibrant I had right before this one, got almost the same speeds. So why not go back?

Hate to tell you, but the bug referenced is not a bug-as-in-a-hole-to-be-exploited. It's a bug in behavior, where changes to /system are thought to be successful by linux but actually aren't. Instead of getting a this-is-read-only error, the write appears to go through. And when the cache is flushed or when the phone is restarted it's apparent that nothing was written at all.
That said, work is still underway.

[Q] Can We Get A LG Quantum Section In This Forum?

Just what the title says. Everybody else got what they want in the wp7 i want my phone section up here. That is not too much to ask is it?
I think they are adding boards when the phone is released / becomes popular.
They should add all the new wp7 phones soon.

Im not quite sure now. I'm hearing two different sizes i was told 3.6 and also 3.8 so i don't know. Either way its still will be a upgrade from my i637 jack.
Is this LG Quantum, LTE capable so when AT&T rolls out LTE, we don't have to change our phones?
I hate to upgrade and pay $199 only to find out that it will stay on 3G.

LG G3A - The perfect version

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_announces_g3_a_in_south_korea-news-9264.php
I see that LG have announced a new version of the G3 and this to me is the perfect version - Basically the G2 with a memory card slot / removable battery and laser camera.
These are the specs I wanted - the QHD screen on the G3 is overkill and restricts the phone - the size is a little bit too big.
I hope there will be an international version - If not I will try to import one if I can confirm that it will work on the UK network.
There is like 4 versions now? G3 g3 beat g3 prime g3 a. Prob missed something.
Edit: G3 stylus or whatever its called.

I doubt it. The 5" Optimus Pro F220 version was restricted for Korean mobops, the same is with G Pro 2, only for SEA and SK market. LG phones are too unpopular in EU so there's no motivation for expenses of logistics and support

Get back in your box!
I had the G2 and upgraded to the G3 which is an excellent phone - it's just that for me, and a lot of people, the specs of the G3a are more suitable.
I am not slagging the G3 in any way. I actually think LG are the current best phone makers, it is just a shame the General public are unaware of that and follow the hype of other manufacturers.

Or maybe it's the fact that others are not experiencing the issues that you have with the device. Its the same as some love meat while others don't. Honestly unless the battery capacity is raised with those other additional g3's then I wouldn't see the need to get it! But that's me........... Just going by your what you post

I totally agree with you, but a choice that fits different needs is what is great.
Others produce a mini version of a flagship at much lower specs which just don't suit the needs of those who like high end phones. The G3a is a great compromise (for me)
I will buy one.
And this is a forum where we discuss new phones etc - that is the purpose of the thread! Or is that concept a little difficult for you.
