New LG G3 owner!!! - G3 General

Hey guys, new (2 days) LG G3 owner here. Been lurking for just as many of days. Came from a Galaxy Nexus of 3 years; was too scared to root it. Been crapping out on me, so I picked up this BEAUTIFUL device. So far I'm in LOVE! Can't wait to learn more about Android and hopefully contributing.

Welcome mate:good:

Welcome. You will love the phone. I've only had mine for a week and think it's the best phone on the market at the moment.

2 Days for me too. I'm loving it

Not to be "that guy" but there's already a thread for new LG G3 users to post their opinions. This is just a redundant thread.

@El Daddy

New owner here as well, I got mine yesterday, coming from sammy S4... Wait you had a phone for 3 years and never rooted it? lol

Think we all are new G3 users. LoL

My third LG G3 is great. Speed and screen. The first did not allow LTE signal selection in the UK, the second from Amazon Germany was "lost" by City Link. The one I have is better than the first one which makes me think that LG may have different manufacturers. The one I have is made in Korea but D855 model.

Atrix Owners! Introduce yourself :D

Hi Everyone!!!
I'm not sure if this kind of thread is well received here in XDA, but I enjoy them in some of the other Android forums I'm a member of (to those who recognize my name ). Hopefully it's well received, lol Else I'd feel really lonely in here
Introduce yourself; say as much or as little as you want. Just some basic stuff you should cover like when you discovered Android and your phone history. Also, when you got the Atrix and what model you have (AT&T or Bell). If you've got the Bell version, what carrier you're on. If you live overseas and got the AT&T Atrix shipped to you, state that too! If you're a member in any other Android forums, then tell us which ones they are! I've made a poll for thos that don't want to post in my thread (please do) and I included 'Europe Atrix' (don't know if it's to a specific carrier) so those that buy it can also vote when it's release (gotta have all of my base cover ) If you got any of the docks, please state which one.
I'll start off first!
The name is Roze...but someone took it...so it's -Roze- here I joined XDA last year, but I've been mostly a lurker. I only come here for technical support that I couldn't get in the Android Forums or they direct me to a thread here XD
I got into Android end of 2009 and got my first Android phone in March 2010 I wanted my first Android experience to be the best experience ever, so I got the AT&T Nexus One! Love that little fellow until I lost it in December 2010. I've been waiting for an AT&T Nexus S but when Moto announced the Atrix at the MWC, I knew this was the phone for me. I felt the Atrix is what the Nexus S should have been. I just got the Bell's Atrix a couple of days it was released (last week). I have it unlocked and rocking it on Rogers (ewww). One thing the Atrix doesn't give me is vanilla Android out of the box, so I will be rooting my dear Artie. Yes...my Atrix has a name Since I'm going to root, I have become a bit more active here. I’ve joined an array of Android forums but the two that I frequent are Android Forums and this one. I only got the Atrix sans docks since I have no need/use for them. And by my posting style, you can guess if I’m an XX or an XY
Oh I forgot to say: I LOVE MY ATRIX! I LOVE MY ATRIX! I LOVE MY ATRIX! I LOVE MY ATRIX! I LOVE MY ATRIX!
Don't mind me if I ask a lot of silly questions. I usually do a lot of research before I post but I have a memory of a gold fish, so it sucks. lol. Just direct me to the threads if it's already been answered
Phone history:
Lg Vu (8 months-Lost)
Sony Erricson something (4 months - temp)
Nexus One (8 months - Lost)
Black Berry something (4 months - temp)
Atrix (now - hopefully I won't lose it...)
^--Notice my little trend in phones
*thinks* I think that's all I have to say
Can't wait to hear everyone's introductions!
Cheers,
-Roze-
YO what's up, i like the idea of creating this thread, sorta brings some type of fun to the forum(not saying that their's not any already), well everybody calls me "Giz" short for Giizmo(yea i spell it with 2 I's lol), but i've bee with android since the G1 first came out, before that i had the Rokr(i loved that phone), blackberry pearl, blackjack, sidekick id, sidekick 3, sidekick LX(yea i was a sidekick fan), the W550i Walkman(that phone was sick!), the Touch Pro 2(great device, horrible software), the HTC Aria(still have it, great stable device), and now THE ATRIX(love it!), i had a few other devices just don't remember the exact names of them.
I been on this forum for a long time, i've tried a few others with different devices but this one seem to have the largest functioning community, i love xda they've helped me when i first started learning about android and continue to this day. I've learned so much to where i've helped out so many friends with their devices, and we've had so many great times on this site, a lot of hilarious moments and i'm sure more are to come. but i'm proud to be a long time member of xda, and once i learn to make themes i'll definitly start contributing to the site, then i'll start learning how to make roms(which may take some time, but it'll be worth it)
ummmmm idk what else to say lol, if there's something i missed let me kno haha........have a great day!
Jsut wanted to take the time to say hi. I've been using android since the g1.
There was a time where I had jumped ship to the iphone. I ditched my iphone 4 the atrix. Its unbelievable how much android has changed. I love the phone and I can't wait to get invoked worth the community again!

Hey Hey!
I want to say hey and hope this community continues to get stronger! I jumped from the iPhone 4 to the Atrix. The Atrix is my first Android phone. I'm loving the immense amount of customization I can do on it. I just wish AT&T would open up non-market sources (I know they're planning to allow Amazon Appstore, but I want to install APKs via email, etc).
I look forward to more in-depth forum activity for the Atrix and wish to thank all the developers making things easy for us (rooting, ROMs, etc).
Well guess since I voted I should say Hi as well.
I have been on XDA for almost 5 years now. History of phones is as follows: Treo 700wx, HTC Touch, HTC Legend, Blackberry Tourch, and now my Atrix.
The last 3 I had all at once for a week. Really liked my Legend, hated the Torch and now loving my Atrix.
Hello, name is Shawn but friends call me stumpy(lost a foot to a train when I was a kid) I just joined xda today and I bought my bell Atrix a few days ago to replace the IPhone 3GS that I was beginning to loathe . Looking forward to going through here and finding some fun stuff to do with my Atrix.
Last few phones were Blackberry pearl, Samsung Instinct, iPhone 3GS, ATRIX!
Sweet! People responded!

Seems like XDA also has its 'playful' side, something that I haven't seen a lot of, lol. That's good I was fearing that this thread is too out there for most people and noone would respond to it.
Good luck with creating themes! If you make 'em good, you'll see me sporting 'em on my Atrix

Great to hear that you're loving both Android and the Atrix. I've notice that a few iPhone users find it quite hard to transition to Android and eventually return to their beloved iPhones. The developers here are AWSOME!!! Best place to find the best developers!! And it looks like you're planning to root?

Welcome to XDA!!! I hope you love your Atrix as I love mine! There's a lot that you can do with it that you can't with an iPhone!
>_< @ the train comment :< Sorry to hear about the foot.
What the heck, I'll bite. They call me dOc, I'm from Philadelphia and have been on xda I guess 2 years or so. I came here for the ROMs and mods for my AT&T Fuze (HTC Touch Pro) which was a great device that I just grew out of. (Now it kinda makes for a decent wireless touchpad/keyboard for the webtop, for the time being)
This is my first proper Android phone, having used XDAndroid on my Fuze and two pandigital e-readers that I put full android packages onto to get my feet wet. I must say that I am very glad I made the move but that it was only because of Windoze Phone 7 being so locked down that I went with the OS at all.
Loving the Atrix and I will be around for the duration. I am also interested in learning some Android development so I'll be learning that on the side and hopefully able to contribute at some point.
I usually don't post that often (I'm an avid searcher) but will when I really have something to offer or a serious question.
I am also on Androidforums, Atrixforums and Motorola owners forums and have seen you around Roze.
Hey Roze! Congrats on finally getting your Atrix!
I'm Marc, I have been a faithful Android user since the Original Droid came out, however i took a week long break with the Iphone when i started working for AT&T. Lucky for me the Aria came out with in the week so I returned the Iphone for it, then sold that, got the captivate, went to wp7 for a while, and then gave the dell streak a chance....tried the inspire, and here I am with the Atrix.
I'm looking forward for gingerblur RC1 !!!
oh and i work for AT&T, and yes, HSUPA is disabled although some of my superiors will beg to differ

Already rooted Probably going to unroot (and possibly factory reset) for the coming update as I expect having it rooted could cause problems when updating. I'm an Adobe Flex developer and love that I can program for this device with very little effort. I make no promises not to return to the iPhone, but Apple has to come out with a phenomenal update with the iPhone 5 for me to want to switch back anytime soon.
I've only been using Android about a year now. Before I was a longtime WM user ( Early 2008- Late 2010). I'm normally not in these "serious" parts of the forum, I prefer off-topic and all its random, silly, nonsense but i'm taking a short leave of absence from it and my Team Llama empire. Click the pic in my sig to join (although we've been dead since I temporarily left in Jan.)
My device history
]• LG Incite (1 year used, still own)
• HTC Fuze (3 weeks used, sold)
• HTC Tilt 2 (1 month used, sold)
• HTC HD2 (2 weeks used, returned)
• Nexus One (6 months used, sold)
• Nexus S (1 month used, returned)
• Palm Pixi Plus (1 week used, still own)
• HTC Aria (1 month used, still own)
• Motorola Atrix 4G (currently using as main phone)
• HTC Surround (2 weeks used, broke, sold)
• Samsung Captivate (Got today)
What's going on everyone. I've been with xda since 2007 (well that's at least when i decided to join) because of the windows mobile devices I had and wanted to tinker with.
I am a mod at CrackBerry.com and have been a mod for Android Central around the time the Nexus One came out for AT&T. I started having lots of multi-touch issues with the Nexus One, so my Android activity went down.
I'm a phone whore and just like having new gadgets all the time. My current phones are:
Atrix 4G, iPhone 4, BlackBerry 9700 (should be getting my Torch back shortly), Samsung Focus and a Palm Pre. I just sold my Nexus One about 2-3 weeks ago and felt I needed a new Android device and the Atrix was the perfect device to do it.
I would name my previous smartphones, but the only ones I probably haven't had were Verizon ones (aside from the Storm 1).
Since I was on AT&T, there weren't many (actually no) android options in the beginning and when I heard about the "Google" phone, I waited and sure enough, the Nexus One was announced. The Atrix is only my second Android device as I've never been interested in many of the Android options from AT&T aside from the Nexus One and now the Atrix.
I do love the Atrix and have since made it my daily driver. Very unexpected and I'm loving it. I ordered an extra battery and media dock and should be here tomorrow (technically, later today... ha). I really don't need the battery as I'm getting 15 hours of usage and my battery is usually around 30%. I have not done any battery saving tricks (lowering the brightness, task managers, etc...) and this is very important to me as I like to use my device as is (the way I fell in love with it) and not having to adjust to less.
I have a son that will be 5 years old in June and realized I was addicted when at 3, he asked me why I had so many phones. Haha.
That's all for now. I'll probably use Tapatalk to post more.
hi, I bought one...and receive it today ...now I need unlock code xD
from portugal
From Sweden as you can figure out by looking a bit to the left. 28 years of age and currently studying logistics. I've been working for some years now at a job that payed very well but got me traveling around 100 days a year. I'm now aiming at settling down and all that crap.
Bought my Atrix two weeks ago and loving it. Owned a Magic, Acer Liquid and a X8 before this one. This kicks all their asses simultaneously!
I've got the AT&T model purchased through Amazon and Bonderlinx.

Hi.
S1MPD1DDY. For those of you who don't know, my name is a play on P-Diddy (who is now just Diddy, or.. whatever he is now). First time android user. I joined XDA when I got the Atrix last month. Great phone.
Device history:
iPhone 3G (2 of them, 2 years)
iPhone 3GS (1, 1 year)
Atrix (now, one month)
I kind of want to pick up another android phone now... maybe if I can find a cheap old ATT nexus one somewhere. I reaaallllyyy liked that phone. All my buddies had one, and the form factor on it was/is slick.

i just sold n1 for for pretty cheap... $250, but added $20 as it was out of country. i actually got a brand new replacement through HTC and the user got a fresh phone. looking at what people are still selling them for, i know i could have gotten a lot more. a couple of developers had emailed me after the sale and were willing to pay more.

First ATRIX in Portugal !?!
Probably. But first of all a big "Hello" to all of you in the xdadevelopers forum. Already before I bought my ATRIX last Friday in FT-Lauderdale, I followed the Android related threads during the last months here in the forum. Very interesting and informative.
When Android came on the stage, I was sure to buy one. I hate everything running Windoz, I like the look & feel of Apple but not the restrictions (iTunes etc.) and I love everything running Linux. Last Christmas I nearly bought a HTC, but when I heard about the Motorola ATRIX I was sure this will be the device which will replace my 8 year old Samsung (still working fine).
The last two months I was in US / Caribbean (for working ;-) so I thought to buy one in Florida. This was really difficult. Only end of February the first ones were available ... ... with a two years contract. The one without plan, you could not get because there was (is) a huge demand for this smartphone and only very few phones in stock. At least last Friday I could get one at Radio Shack in FT-Lauderdale. 599,- USD and of course blocked for AT&T. I took the risk, bought it and ordered the unblock code at CellUnlock.net.
Yesterday I got the code, swapped the Sim card to my Optimus one, rebooted the phone, entered the Unlock code and ...
... everything working perfect !!!

[Q] LG G2 more ROMS coming?

I am getting ready to upgrade and the LG G2 on Verizon looks very nice. I'm not seeing many ROMS now and realize that it is pretty new and that ROMS don't just appear by magic.
Do people think that more ROMS will be forthcoming? I do enjoy various ROMS for the customizing etc. Are we waiting on some milestone to occur before development really starts?
If not the LG G2, what other phone on Verizon should I look at?
Thanks and please move if this isn't in the right forum.

The LG G2 has a lot of buzz in the "nerd" community. development will pick up. lg has never had the amount of owners as samsung but i have a good feeling about the G2. its REALLY good and Half the price of the note 3 :good:
verizon options are becoming limited as verizon gets manufacturers to encrypt bootloaders.
the s4 was looking like it was going to be the phone to get but its locked down tight.
hashcode0f has got safestrap working but no kernel access. it allows for roms and mods but its limited.
i say buy the G2 it works really well with cleanrom and a few mods.

So I swear this is true. If I'm lying, give me an iPhone
I go to the Verizon store and this was my conversation with the guy. I looked at the G2 and on the way out, wanted to see about a protective case.
ME: Do you have any cases for the G2.
VERIZON MORON: I don't know that that is.
ME: It's a phone by LG. You know, the LG G2. It's over there.
i think like anything else it is just a person by person experience. I bought one outright and the verizon rep couldn't say enough good about it. even as i even thought my mind was made up which he did not know. i asked questions about the htc one and samsung galaxy s4. he was waiting for the note 3 to come out as they get a discount and he really needed a big screen he still said the g2 was the best they had so there are negative experiences but for me verizon has endorsed it and when i went for the wireless charger continued to tell me how good of a phone it was

[Q] Dunno what to buy, LG G2 VS. Nexus 5 VS. HTC ONE

Dear All,
Greetings
I've been doing a market research since two weeks now and I'm still very confused about what to buy till this moment. In my country, the three phones are of almost at the same price, so having a price premium for Nexus 5 is not available, Nexus 5 32GB is at 544$, LG G2 32GB is at 505$, and HTC ONE is at 518$. So you see, its not that big difference between them, and I'm really lost on deciding what to get as a new .
I'd appreciate your help, so thank you so much
We don't allow such threads on XDA, mainly because all you're going to get is opinions which leads to arguing and abuse and eventually thread closure.
Opinions are like butts... everyone has one.
If you cannot get enough info from existing threads here, my suggestion is go to your local store and handle the device.. have a play.. make up your own mind.
Alternatively, you can visit a site like THIS and do a direct comparison.
Thread closed.

Greetings!

Hey everyone! After 15 months of using old gen phones I finally manned up and got the SGS5 today, very pleased to see so many familiar folks in the forum already. I look forward to bring my own little customization to the table after I root tonight (broke Windows 8.1 last week so now I only have Linux lol)
Anyway congrats to everyone who got the S5, so far I am liking the little things Samsung has done to the device hardware wise as well some aesthetics that have been changed over older gen Galaxy's. It was a toss up for me between this and the LG G2 or Flex, but I think I made the right choice

Farewell, LG.

Well y'all, it's been a long run with LG but I am jumping ship to the OnePlus One. I have no animosity, but just feel it is time for a change. I have used LG since the Optimus G (great phone, not so great battery), all the way up to the Optimus G Pro, the G2, the G Flex, and now the G3. I received an invite to get the OnePlus, and decided to go for it.
I'd like to thank all of the great developers working on the phone, especially @jcase, @autoprime, @thecubed, and the many others that tirelessly worked at getting root, and a bootloader bypass to this device. I am glad I got to be a part of this phones development journey from the start (first phone I bought on launch day). I am selling my G3 (on Swappa currently for 355. If you tell me you're from XDA, I'll cut you a deal), but I will be active here providing answers to questions I can! Thank you all again!
You just made my eyes teary...
Farewell brother !!
Hope that OnePlus One brings you more happines !!

It's OK, but can you post pros and cons of OPO compared to G3? Is OPO that much better overall, or you miss something of G3? Is OPO camera the same or better quality?
Not to start a flame wars but to get truly and unbiased comparison from one who have owned both devices
I had both for about three weeks and out of the box i preferred The OPO. Over The course of three weeks I started missing The G3 for certain things. Wireless charging, smaller footprint, sd card, having an extra battery for my Orlando days, the list goes on and on. The battery life of The OPO was badass, but some things didn't feel refined enough though. The OPO went to my brother in the end. If there was anything i miss more than anything about The OPO, it would be that sandstone back it had. It felt pretty amazing.

I'm keeping both devices. OnePlus One deal breaker... battery not removable, No expandable memory card slot. LG G3 deal breaker... locked bootloader. Can't get the best of both world eh?
Indeed a nice farewell. All the best with OPO.
Bye ,don't let the door hit you in the ... I'm joking ... :thumbup:

i have both and everytime i look at the two screens side by side i go nuts and throw away the OPO
Funny, I did the opposite. Sold my 1p1 and bought the G3.

Have you been living under a rock or are you just complaining that the bump website hasn't been put up that will allow developers to bump their ROMS and Kernels for use on the G3? If you haven't heard about bump, then a little reading is in your future, but the short story is that we now have the ability to flash whatever we want using the G3 bootloader via a method called "bump."
And here it starts it seems every one is leaving the g3 crap.

Not really, but thats a nice generalization to make just from one thread.

Its just not off one thread there are tons of people switching to other phones and a few devs. So yes i guess you know every thing i was reading and I guess I cant have my own opinion or state any thing on xda any more with a remark. All i was stating that is sucks devs and some user are switching.

I said im keeping both devices. I'm just laying out the differences in both devices i own which is a "FACT". For LG G3 our bootloader is locked. XDA devs did a amazing job in bypassing it. On the LG(Company) part they are not going to do anything to unlock our bootloader officially. I do know the method called "bump" by the way.

Well y'all, it's been a long run with LG but I am jumping ship to the OnePlus One. I have no animosity, but just feel it is time for a change. I have used LG since the Optimus G (great phone, not so great battery), all the way up to the Optimus G Pro, the G2, the G Flex, and now the G3. I received an invite to get the OnePlus, and decided to go for it.
I'd like to thank all of the great developers working on the phone, especially @jcase, @autoprime, @thecubed, and the many others that tirelessly worked at getting root, and a bootloader bypass to this device. I am glad I got to be a part of this phones development journey from the start (first phone I bought on launch day). I am selling my G3 (on Swappa currently for 355. If you tell me you're from XDA, I'll cut you a deal), but I will be active here providing answers to questions I can! Thank you all again!

You know, I like my G3, but I got a OnePlus for my sweetie, and I really like it simplicity.. so I got one for myself to play with. Still using the G3 as my DD. I'm on the fence about switching, as they both have some interesting features. If I could 1080 the screen and all apps work/present well, I'd stay G3. The 4K is awesome, though.
Good luck.
Wow, that's a strong move. Although G3 is pretty much locked, 1p1 is too rough.. overall rubbish.
I'd suggest keeping both and then deciding if that's what you want.
But it's been a month now, eh.. guess it's too late
