Now that Clove has announced they won't be selling the LG V20, can I ask if there are any UK owners? What model works in the UK and where did you buy yours from please? Is it worth me buying the V20, or should I look elsewhere? Thanks for your help!

Here asking the same question but as usual not much support for LG phones at xda.
I'm on EE and Vodafone and 4g is absolutely essential for me but not sure which version is best suited for these networks.
I have the F800K ( Korea Telecom ) version and currently using it on O2 , connects to LTE, I'm quite rural so 4G isn't really that much of an option for me. EE seem to be the best bet for band compatibility according to willmyphonework.net ( using V10 ).
Sourced mine pretty early on direct from S.Korea via eBay, bit of premium cost at the time and they've dropped about £100 since then.
I'm looking to buy the Huawei Mate 9, I think I'll have a better chance getting this phone.

I've just received my LG V20from ebay seller.
I'm currently using EE and have 4G.128sd card no issues reading it without a glitch.
Will test further and have review posted shortly
I got mine from mygsm.me and still waiting for delivery. it is still at DHL hub heathrow
best to buy from EU suppliers I think.

Good morning.
I have a good phone now, a Touch Pro2 and always loved smartphones with keyboard, and entering the world of Android, the best choice now for me would be the Desire Z/G2.
I'm searching for a place to buy online, who either ships overseas (as i live in Brasil) or to USA, and is reliable.
Anyone here can give me tips about stores ?
Sent from my FROYO X using XDA App
Hi, I'm in Sao Paulo with a G2 on TIM, I'll sell it to you for R$1300. PM me if interested.
Thanks, too costly. I'm searching in US, as i have people to send it to me and a friend who has a Import Business firm. For this price i can get a brand new at a Br auction site.

Why don't you just send one of your "people" to a tmobile store?
My cell service would be here in Brasil, which is GSM and 3G/2100 mhz. For what i've read, both the Z and the G2 operates in 3G at 2100 mhz, so both are ok.
Of course i would need a store who sells unlocked phones. At T-Mo they would not sell unlocked phones. Either i buy online and ships directly to me, or i order to ship to my friend's family in the US and they send me here...

G2
Should just buy a G2 and unlock it byself... i got mine for $340
The stores i though were Plemix, PopularElect, and Gsm Nation, and Ebay.
Any thoughts on them ?
Go for the DZ, the G2 needs 1700 and 2100 for 3G, not just 2100

Well I'm curious which site you're looking at since on Mercado Livre the cheapest I seen were R$1590.
If you already have people to send it to you just buy from ebay or craigslist, good luck with the shipping to here + taxes. You can buy one unlocked off Amazon for $500. My phone's already perm-rooted, S-OFF, sim unlocked, running gingerbread. Offer stands.
i saw last week for R$1349, and today for R$1319 too.
well, now i'm just trying to see which store is the best and reliable...
hey guys, i really wanna know whether desire z is available in US or not ?
It seems that only T-G2 is on sell..

So basically, still higher than my offer, and not guaranteed to work on TIM.
Thats cool though, I love my Vision.
I know that Telus (a Canadian carrier) might sell a Desire Z unlocked and it has the same bands as AT&T (might work on 2100Mhz but I'm not sure)
well, popularelect has the G2 for 479.99 usd, and for what i've seen, their reputation is good !
i thought the vision was able to be sim unlocked with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855764
So if that's the case, why not have someone pick up the T-Mobile G2 and unlock it? That way you can use the G2 on whatever network you have there without issue
the g2 at popularelect is unlocked !
I just recd mine from OnTheGoSolutions in the U.S.
Desire Z is rooted and shipped same day form these guys.
Second phone I have bought from them, very reliable.
I bought a Desire and now the Desire Z (not a G2)
Check out there Web Site, same as there name above.

You can unlock it, yes, but you can't change the radio bands (they are set in hardware). So an unlocked G2 can't use 3G on AT&T, for example. That's why people want to get hold of the NAM model Desire Z from Bell.

Good luck getting something by customs, taxes in Brazil will cost more than the phone itself.
Hi
I live in Malta (Europe), and need a good dual sim active phone.
The only option there seems to be is buying the samsung galaxy s4 dual sim from this seller etotalk.
I would like to query whether anyone has bought this phone from this seller and their experience.
Thanks
Ken

HI thanks for the info
Yet you use it in europe - and did you buy it with a custom rom pre-installed?

Got one from Etotalk.com; very happy with it and all is genuine!

Me too. Had it rooted and have their custom rom installed. Have some minor issues with the rom but nothing serious.

A week or so ago I also bought a GT-I9502 from etotalk and got a very good impression of them considering the natural obstacles of sending stuff from China, customs, paying with Paypal etc. Got the phone just after a few days, sent by DHL.
You can ask them to send it as a "gift", declaring a lower than actual value of your choice, which might make things slip through customs easier/cheaper/less VAT slapped on.
Bought it in stock version and rooted/ROMed it myself, using this procedure and with SVA's excellent ROM that you buy for a few $.
In certain (most?) countries the GT-I9502 doesn't show CallerID properly as the phone's software platform is made for China, but I've done a patch for that, see this post.
Hello guys, as title says, if I were to obtained a unlocked Z2, would it have full functionality in USA such as 4G/LTE? I looked a the radio bands listed in their specs and compared it to what AT&T uses, I noticed there were some but not all bands that matched. I would appreciate any help, thank you!

Thank you so much for that information, I've been talking to AT&T rep trying to figure this out, but seems like all the bands AT&T uses for 3G/4G/LTE is listed in D6503 specs.
Do you have any issues using it in the States, or does it everything function as it should? I would truly appreciate your help, thank you.

Indeed! Cant wait to get this amazing phone. :victory:
reception?
I have been trying to find info on how good the reception on the phone is.. My s4 has **** reception. the htc one I have has much better reception when im at work. I am hovering over a "Buy it Now" button on ebay and want to find out if it has good reception. Also, how is the stock messaging app? I hate using third party ones, they usually have quirks, but again, cant find any info on what the email or messaging apps look like at all.
You should try Textra. It is the best sms app I have used on Android.

I ordered mine from eBay. Should have it by next Friday. Will have a huge review of it the following week (or sooner) coving all the pros, and the few cons. I cant wait for it to arrive. One awesome thing I noticed was that the dock had the insert that comes out to fit your phone into it while still in the case!!!! Genius! I will be buying a couple extra docks I think.

Would you be able to check out wifi range also? compared to other phones? I have an XZ, and have never been happy with the wifi (so much worse than my old iponw 3gs).
I ordered mine from a random Taiwanese seller on ebay. I went for whichever is the cheapest. But i do see some that includes the charging dock. I guess you just have to read the description of each auction to see what they come with

What's the usual deal with Sony warranties on the unlocked/international version? Could you still get the phone serviced at a Sony center or replaced by calling in an issue if you needed to?
I've never bought an international/unlocked/SIM free type phone before but if Sony fails to bring it to the USA carriers I'm interested in I see no other choice.

It's available very easily now, I got one for my sister in Pakistan and I have to admit the Coral Blue looks fantastic.
It was the FD variant, for USD 620 here.
I bought it on ebay from the seller tobydeals. Fast delivery and I was surprised about the good customer service. I couldn't find the invoice and dropped than an email. After 24h I received an answer with a link to my invoice. And the phone is amazing. I've never were so satisfied with a phone
I bought the spigen ultra hybrid case. Very thin, good protection, the phone is now less slippery anymore and the best thing is I'm not touching the edges by accident.
Hello everyone,
I am eagerly waiting to preorder the much-awaited S8(+), but since I do not live in any of the regions which traditionally supply the dual sim variant (South Korea? India? Singapore? China? Thailand?) I would like to know if any supplier is well known for forwarding a dual-sim S8 to Europe, and if so which one would you advise choosing.
My guess is preorders will be quickly saturated so I would like to know where I could get my hands on a dual sim S8 as early as possible
Thank you xda!
Me too, for import to France
In my opinion best dual sim versions coming from UAE. Currently I have s7 edge duos from UAE, and is perfect. Looks same like EU version (even address on backplate is UK). I had in the past s6 duos from china, all documentation in Chinese, also China address on the back. However it was working perfect.
Anyone know reliable online shop in UAE, who shipping to UK?

There is none reliable online store and I don't recommend buying from there as as difficult to get local warranty, still if you want to buy than get it from someone working or living there like friend or relative etc.
Saying reliable online store I mean, real store with good recommendation, who will send device to me without any problems. Unfortunately I don't know any person living there...

I don't agree with many ppl here.. There are lots or reliable sources in uae, well known local online stores with a track record, i personally bought from them (and i live in dubai) and i know for a fact that they ship to many customers in Europe (reading from few other threads on xda related to Samsung products) try Mike&Smith uae and try mygsm uae.. Just Google them.. Hope this helps as i did buy from both many times..
I contacted mygsm uae. They will have s8 duos in stock next week, Shipping to UK is £20, so I will use them

WooooW i never thought they will get it that fast, am already on the waiting list for several sellers here in dubai. Good luck for us.
Thank you for all the advice, mygsm does not display price yet and Mike&Smith sells the S8+ for 4000AED (1020€) which is crazy expensive, will any reseller be cheaper, or is there any other dual-sim friendly country which may sell it for less?
