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

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.

hi guys, im from Canada, and have a D803 model, would like to root and install vanilla android, but Im not finding D803 roms, or I can install the ones that are for the D802?
please respond, I cant find an answer.
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.
Hello Guys,
I tried to search but could not find an answer.....
Since D803 and D802 seems to be similar in hardware, is it possible to install the complete set of firmware/rom of LG G2 D802 on D803 ?
I know many Roms are supported, but my question is whether it is possible to technically 'convert' D803 to D802 by
installing the firmware/efs/rom of D802.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I have the same quastion
Hi,
I received a LG G2 from china that was supposed to be a D802 model, but after I opened the back case it's writed D801 / D803 on it, I think it's a canadian version. But on the phone software, it say it's a D802.
Now, I want root/custom recovery/custom rom for it, but in every flashing process I need to shoose the model. should I proceed for D801 or D802 or D803 ?

Do whatever it says from the settings. Go to the About Phone section and do whichever one is listed there. Not sure why it's labeled differently, but what the phone says from the settings is the proper version.
not so sur, many users here have bricked there devices because of the difference between software and hardware, on refurbished phones.

Exactly right. Don't go by the settings. If your phone's put together by different parts, like frankenstein you might be off getting a refund.
it's now confirmed that it's a D800 (stock recovery say it), I contacted the seller for a refund.
Hi there,
I'm going to buy LG G2, but in market only LG G2 (refurbished) fully new condition D802 ( a converted version of D800 ) means hardware is of D800 but casing and firmware,software,version is of D80220b,D802 . So, I need suggestions in this regard. Should I buy this one ??
Am I going to face any problem if I buy this phone ?
What if I wan't to root it then which method should I have to follow ? D802 or D800 ?
Thanks id advance..

DON'T BUY
You can buy it but it is a d800, so d800 lte bands. And I advise you to reconvert it to d800 and use it like a d800, to avoid brick.

A Easy , but a very very easy way is:
D802 has radio
D800 don´t
Radio FM works? if works, is a D802. If not, it is not a D802
I thought the same idea but after than i read other threads in which d802 in other countries doesn't support radio feature
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46294092&postcount=4
Also check this ss for model , kernal and other specs
It's been days and i don't even get a serious reply from anyone. Please help i need to root my mobile but for this i need to know whether i'm doing right or wrong.
If you need to be 100% sure which model, you have to open back cover and see which model you have. AFAIK, this is the only way

I'm a newbie. And it's a new mobile for me. I can't open it. Is there any other Way to check ? And i doubt it's a china version lg g2 d802 which supports 3g only. Because it shows gsm/wcdma option in mobile networks. You can also see this thread.
