hello,
I want to buy LG G2 F320, but I've doubts about the repair parts in the future in case of any damage, is D802 parts are compatible with F320?
ty all.
Its really hard to say. Most of the d80x variants seem to be the same aside from the modem ext..
I would assumed all the F variants should use he sane hardware. Aside from finding someone that has torn theirs apart, I wouldn't assume anything positive because of the way the OEM handled this device
GREAT device, but they used different hardware between the D80's the vs980, and the ls980

first, i did use the search button so no flaming. at the risk of sounding like a noob, here goes nothing. i just picked up a verizon g2 variant and love it! however i have found a couple roms on the att side (who is my carrier) that i would like to use. so im wondering can these roms be used on different devices or do you need to stick to your carriers sub forum? perhaps flashing a kernel or something additional.
any help is greatly appreciated! oh, and the reason for a verizon phone on att is simply because of the awesome deal i got.
thanks!!!
Dont flash the ROM from AT&T. You'll most likely going to boot loop or even worse brick your phone. There's a reason they have different sub forums for different carriers. Stick to the verizon sub forum or go to the Original Android development and look for ROMs that works on VS980 only. But if you really want the ROM. It never hurts to ask.
So i bought a LG G3. And i hoped that it would be open for roms and so on. But It's not. Totally locked Down. At least the international Version.
And my girlfriend has a S4. So.. I have thouht about maybe trading With her. So i could install custom roms and have some fun et cetra.
But Im not sure yet. Seeing the hardware is somewhat different i cant make up my mind.
So I'm asking here. Would it be a worthy trade?
Or would it totally blow?
I know the S5 is out and everything. But I dont need that extra. And dont want to buy another phone really.
So Thoughts?
Don't
I am just stating my personal preference, although I think many people would tell you the same.
Keep your LG G3. I have a Galaxy S4 and I have experimented with some popular roms and kernels. It is fun and you discover a lot of interesting features specific to some roms. But you know what? Now I'm back to a near-stock ROM called hyperdrive, and if I want to go back to stock, I would do it without hesitation. You see...Samsung manufactures my Galaxy S4, and develops the software specifically for it. LG manufactures your LG G3, and develops the software for that specific device. So, in most cases, the stock ROM is the perfect one for your device, and OEMs(Samsung, LG) provide you with content that can only run on your ROM. In my case, the custom ROMs had awesome features, but the also had bugs no matter how long i waited, and the photos I took were not that great compared to the stock ROM. Besides, when I am on the stock ROM I can run a program by Samsung called SideSync which mirrors my device's screen onto my non-Samsung PC, pretty awesome right? In addition, the Galaxy S4 is not as nearly good-looking, premium, and feature-packed as your LG G3.
So I suggest you keep your G3, but root it(in case you haven't yet) and install some xposed modules which are going to give you more features than you need. That is what I would do.
It won't be a worthy trade. It would totally blow.
I agree and furthermore, G3 is really powerfull, much more than S4 and its camera is far better.
After all S4 is last year model and can be compared to G2 not to G3.
Also price is very different, G3 about 600€ when I just bought my S4 for 298€!!!
This said, S4 is a GREAT device, but G3 is far better. Keep it

I have to somewhat disagree with that. I could never get myself to like Samsung's TouchWiz. Instead, I've now been running CM11 for a while, and I could not be happier. That said, if I had the choice, I would also have kept the G3. It's not always that easy to find a custom ROM that you would be willing to stick with in the long run, and like Zheen said, you can now get many of the advantages previously only found in custom ROMs using xposed. Not to mention the improved hardware the G3 has over the S4.
Lastly, there is also always a (tiny) chance the G3 community might after some time find a way to bypass the locked bootloader (Loki & etc). After all, this has happened to other popular models before.
keep your G3 , before or after Handy custom roms , it's a very new model so be patient with him. besides , it's a real missile, no ?? you want most ???
my Question its very simple
I have a note 4 AT&T (sm-n910A)
can I replace a Motherboard with other note 4?? (example 910T 9100 duos or 910C or H)
thanks in advance
no replies??
its a hard question??
or its a silly question???

Hey, reason no one is replying is because it is either very difficult or it is basically impossible. I'd say when you are replacing the motherboard you are basically replacing the device as the motherboard does control a lot of things like modem. But I wouldn't think it would work because of the specific bands that the phone built is supposed to work with, also it would be very costly so I'd just prefer to sell the phone and buy a different regioned device G/F/C/U from online. If you do wish to do that, I'd say go with N910F as it has most development support. Sadly I have the N910G and it has "some" development but not as much as the N910F!
It might not be possible because of the placement of every component might not be identical with each model. This is based on my experience with my i9300... but this could have changed though... si your first assignment is to search for schematic diagram of the motherboards you want to swap. Good luck and let us know how you get on.
If you can find a motherboard I'd say wow, then I'd say maybe yes, however, the difficulty and chances of stuffing the device are high unless you're a technician. It will work no doubt but not worth the expense or risk.
In saying that you need to look and compare the two devices internally to see whether the hardware is an identical fit.
Hi,
Can you tell me please the differences between D800 and D802? I mean everything we can compare or where D802 could be better than D800 - network/bands, hardware (better screen, touchscreen, anything), software support (roms, kernels, BUGS and any bricks or bad stuff when flashing or something), simlock??
i know there are things on forum, i got some info but it would be cool if we could get the differences in every corner here. it will also help me deciding which one to buy.
btw we can eventually add f320 to compare, i heard it's working well (network)
but I also heard somewhere f320 has worse signal than others - can't confirm if that's true or just some bulls#!t.
d800 as I know has simlock but I can get that away, I see roms for both d800 and d802 so that's cool about it.
any more stuff need to know?
Hi,
I bought an LG V20 from AliEx, refurbished with a plan on rooting + installing LOS 17.1 ...and, yes, I knew I'm rolling the dice when buying a used device from China.
Unfortunately when the device arrived there were 2 major problems:
1) The phone is not exactly H910 but H910PR (Puerto Rico), after a looooong search I found out one post (on this forum) where a guy tells that H910PR can be rooted and software from H910 (ATT) can be flashed. But ...it's still risky in my opinion.
i.postimg[dot]cc/L57hR1hV/bad-model-V20.jpg
(NEW USER - CANNOT PLACE LINKS!)
2) [MAJOR PROBLEM] The phone's touch screen seems to be not responding when the phone "sleeps" for more then 2-3m. Pressing POWER off and back on solves it, and as long as I am actively using the phone - touch screen reacts ok.
But.. when the phone arrived that non-responsiveness was present much more often.
AND THE BIG QUESTIONS ARE:
1) Is H910PR technically the same as H910, and the ONLY difference is the software (rom)?
2) Do you think that the problem with the touch screen is hardware (i suppose so ( ) or maybe software related.
Those 2 videos will describe my problem better:

I'd return it and get my money back and get another variant that's easier to root with a lesser chance of issues
Sent from my LG-H910 using XDA Labs
well...
I thought I was buing H910 (ATT), that's how the damn chinese seller described it, not a word about some particular phones being H910PR. And YES, I know the rooting of V20 is kinda hard, but at this point, I spent approx. 2 months searching for the right phone (for the right price too), and the LG V20 is in my opinion GREAT. By now I know the root procedure almost "by heart" ;P
Also all parameters beside ...my #1 priority was that the phone has to be supported by LOS 17.1 (as i want to degoogle my phone - i'm a big privacy/security/anonymity freak, though still learning and transitioning... )
If LG would still sell V20's (new) at a reasonable price - I would pay double (this refurbished phone cost was approx. 80$ + 20$ LIPO Perfine baterry). Beside that ONE "glitch" and ONE misinformation (h910pr != h910) I really fell in love with this phone (even with the "silly" second screen, which in LAOS 17.1 is integrated).
If it wasn't China I would return it the same day I recieved it, but sending it so far (i'm from PL) is quite a hassle.
But back to the topic ...do you think that this "GLITCH" with non-responding digitizer after 3+ minutes of standby (as seen on the video - BTW: sorry for the HQ) is software or hardware related? What does your gut say?
And is there any way to check this without unreversable changes by elimination?
1) I could elimnate SOFTWARE fault. But I am unable to find a way to backup (in case it's not software) dumped files from LGUP. Dumping went OK - but the result files are useless (not KDZ!)
2) I could eliminate HARDWARE fault. ...NOPE, wait I CAN'T - there's a pseudo-warranty sticker so I cannot unplug+clean+plug again display cables in the phone internals. (From repairing my LED TV i found out that dirty connector cables can result in e.g. inverted colors - some IPA cleaner and ta-da!)
Mouse connected OTG?
WHAT DOES YOUR GUT SAY?

I suspect it's a software issue, however I stand by my recommendation to return it, if your intention is to root and cross flash the firmware, I seen numerous people who crodsflashed the 910pr and lose all cellular connectivity.

Hmm... some breaking news. I just installed (F-Droid) AlwaysOn (Always-On-Display), set the hour/date/bat% to display (when off) AND... everything A.O.K (?!?).
My gut feeling is that somehow the screen digitizer when "woken up", at first doesn't receive enough V/A, but when I "wake" him again the amount is enough.
If there would only be a way to check this V20 on a different soft :/ (but I don't know how to put back DUMP files from LGUP back to the phone). Otherwise I would flash H915 KDZ (as the root instruction says)
I also found this when it comes to H910PR: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76370024&postcount=20
EDIT: Just now I found in the FOOTER of the member that posted info on how to root and croos-flash H910PR (above):
"Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 6/64GB
LG V20 - Bricked H910PR Board, Then dead cellular on H910 board. Nostalgia in my desk drawer"
...BRICKED H910PR Board
...life is unfair...
Hi guys!
QUICK QUESTION: Does H910 has polish language? (could someone check this, thanks)
Because one of the sellers on AliEx claims that only H910PR has polish language, H910 does not - it's hard to believe, but maybe that is why they sent me the H910PR at first.
