I can get the LG G6 H870DS 64Gb dual sim variant for 400 euro. This variant gets the Hi-Fi Dac so many people want. Many people say this is a bargain but can I get an honest answer ?
Has this phone gotten good support on the update spectrum?
Is it still stuck at 7.0 Nougat ? And has it gotten security patches ? I have the LG G4 and let's just say I'm dissapointed.
Hi
For the moment yes it is still on Android Nougat but it receives the security updates (the last one is "August 2017").
And it doesn't include wireless charging, if that is important to you. Also, most dual SIM phone can only connect to LTE on one SIM.

That's great but is it on all LG G6's ? I've seen stories of people being stuck on different patches.

The dual SIM variant you are refering to is. That will be coming from eglobalcentral.eu or similar and they supply either Hong Kong or Taiwan version both of which are on the August security patch as current.

Got mine from Dubai. It is the 64GB one and has the Hi-Fi DAC (same as the Indian version).
Still no sign of September security patch though...

I thought it was stupid to ask someone if there are differences between different factory units, untile I saw that this guy got 2 different models!!
really looking forward to know if he spotted something

Well, absolutely no difference except build quality. The present one still has some minor build quality issues, but nothing to worry about.
I bought my phone directly from HTC a few days after they were available.

Hey did you get your phone
Sorry! Yes, I did. It's amazing
wish India would have gotten that model
The model number shown on the webpage of the retailer is SM-G935FTKDXSG. Will this phone work in India with respect to making calls and also LTE bands for 4G? How do I find out if its unlocked or not? Will VoLTE, Samsung pay work in India? Also, for warranty, is there some way to get Indian warranty?

This phone will work in India with respect to making calls and LTE connection. But VoLTE will not work. Not sure about Samsung Pay because I don't use it.
Also, nothing can be done about the warranty.
BTW I use an S7 edge bought from Dubai in India

Thanks for the reply! Where did you get the phone from, and for what price? Where would you recommend I but it from? Also, are you aware of any other features being different between this phone from dubai and the one in India? Have you faced any problems with the phone till now? And, does the phone have warranty inside UAE or not?
Thanks for the help!

I got the phone from the website souq.com for a pretty low price compared to the market price. Most shops in Dubai usually just increase the price for no reason.
My phone also came with one year warranty (Only in UAE).
My phone is almost 6 months old and I've had no problems at all with the phone. Really happy with it.
Yes you can use it with voLTE and SPay. Just flash Indian firmware on the firmware and you're good to go.

No, there is not a difference. I think it's around 1800 there and for that money it's so value for money. Nothing gets better than this phone at that price. Myself using a UAE phone. Get this model 935FD dual sim version.
And, don't get from souq. Not heard good opinion about them from people who live there.

I'm not in the UAE myself, so will have to ask someone to get it for me. Could you please tell me where to buy it from? souq.com shows price as 1900 AED for 128gb version. Where do I ask my friend to buy it from? And model number is 935FD or SM-G935FTKDXSG? Thanks man!

Hey check this phone out from souq.com:
https://uae.souq.com/ae-en/samsung-...-128gb-4gb-ram-4g-lte-black-pearl-12075981/i/
It comes with a one year official Samsung gulf warranty.
When I got my phone 6 months ago I paid 2000dhs. And I've had no problems at all with my device.

I bought my Nexus 5 from there and used it for 4 years without any issues. Then I bought my S7 edge from there 6 months ago and it has no issues.
My brother bought his LG G3 from there and used it for 4 years without any issues. He bought his LG G5 recently (around the same time I got my S7 edge) and he has no issues with his device whatsoever.
All these devices from souq.com
The site is good as long as you buy from a good dealer. Since anyone can setup a shop on the site, there might be some people trying to sell bad stuff. Just buy from the trusted dealers and you'll be fine.
I don't think Samsung issues international warranty. My home appliances are Samsung branded which doesn't have and one more using the firmware of UAE Volte will definitely not work unless you flash indian package on your mobile that's why I said no.

Hey are you 100% sure that we can flash Indian firmware on a Dubai model using ODIN?
I am on some custom ROM on my dubai phone but I really want to shift to the latest OREO INS Stock via ODIN. So that I have everything working smoothly including jio VOLTE. Please let me know if you have tried and tested this as I don't want to brick my phone
Also do I have to tick anything special on ODIN? I've been reading about people saying to tick re partition if coming from Dubai model?

Just make sure you buy the international variant applicable to any model of Samsung. Experience wise I usually buy my phone from Sohar, Oman and use it in Manila and didn't encounter any issues whatsoever.

Hi , i bought a second hand lg g6 and now i dont know where is it from... Its a dual sim 64 gb with quad dac , ice platinum , bought on eglobal
I dont know if its asian , european ( estern europe) ...
Is there some way to figure out where is it come from? In options , android veraion , security pach or someting ?
Due to your Quad DAC I guess it's an asian h870ds or something like that.
Check in your settings app, go down to About phone and check hardware info for model
Nothing about that there
Most likely H870DS

That's been the case for a long time already. It was gone shortly after the ban back then.
I really hope it comes back though.

Yes.....
Yea, not new, but glad to see this came back after the ban.
Pre ban they had links up where you could buy replacement ZTE hardware like the earphones, charger, tpu case and screen protectors. can seem to find it at the moment tho
Yeah ZTE support is... lackluster.
The last update for the Axon 7 i can find is Nougat B04 (under Australia) There are later updates. I have v1.20B09
I dont even think that is the latest update.
There is a thread on XDA with all the updates. But there is no easy route on ZTE websites (nor with updates on the phone itself).
?? Why not just use the Australian site, rather than (barely) localised pages on the international site? The AU site looks to be as complete as it ever was.
Because it only has Nougat B04.....
I updated mine to Nougat B10 by downloading from the German site well before the whole ban kerfuffle happened. I'd still be out of date if I kept to our Aus site.

I'm not talking about that "localised" *page* on the international site, I'm talking about the Australian *site*. You'd be out of date by having b09 instead of b10. (I downloaded b09 from there in early March, but before they adjusted their recommendations to do b06 first. (The people in that Melbourne office are *incredibly* cautious.))
