LG G6 with a Snapdragon 820!?!? - LG G6 Questions and Answers

Bought my G6 off a shady shop in Hong Kong, it runs hot like 40-75c all the time.
I checked using AIDA64 and wtf
Also used device info, same thing says 820
It has a warranty but no returns so I'm comfused

Hmm, mine is showing 821 MSM8996 Pro. But mine is H870.

Hardware Version Rev 1.1, max 2150MH per Core, this looks really like a 820, loool.
Maybe they really used the older CPU Version? What's going with LG, I don't get it ?

And the rest of the features match?
You may have just bought a counterfeit..
Post other screens of aida app, for see with my results

A counterfeit would rather be based on a cheap MediaTek SoC and a display with 1080p or less.

It's a great phone, try to flash different firmware before selling, maybe just a bug in firmware.

I do not see anything abnormal, has by course the Snapdragon
Be this model is planned with this processor for this country, be it a model of pre-production, which seems to me possible considering the date of production inscribed on the stickers on the back of your g6 (march 2017

Your g6 is the korean version. The 64gb model is coming with sd820. The phone is legit. Trust me,there is no difference. In fact, i like your version better,due to higher storage capacity. Not to mention korean model already has oreo on tests and it will be the first to get it.
Smart phones, dumb people.

@kimitza is right, everything is OK, European/US versions have SD821, Korean ones have SD820. The difference is incredibly marginal to be honest. You won't feel it.

That model should have 821 as well, as shown in LG's Korean website..

[Q] Which One to Buy ? Dev will support ?

Obviously we are all waiting for the Note 4, yet it's Pricey.
Now comes the hard question.
Which one to buy ? and
Which will the Dev support ? (Future Proofing)
N910C or N910S
Snapdragon over Exynos
We all saw it in the S4 between the 9505 and 9500 so I don't want to get stuck in the same loop.
Please advise at the earliest since all the articles on the Web refer to Chip variants and differences yet no one has a solid answer to which will be supported and would be considered as a real investment. I hear the Exynos is benchmarked with 40K therefore exceeding our favorite Snapdragon chip !?
That makes it even worse to decide
International version is snapdragon if u care about custom stuff go for it.

Kinda. There's now multiple international versions and some are Exynos (some of Europe, Aus, NZ, HK and Korea)

I think the exynos version(s) this time around may prove to be a bit more popular because the believe (uncertain) that the 5433 will run 64bit (future proofing).

Tough to say, All of the USA market will have snapdragon, as will many other countries. That means there will be a greater percentage of "market share" of the S805 version with a better chance of having dev support on it.

This is a million dollar question right here...

u planning on doing any dev work on this thing, or just gonna enjoy it?
I can't decide between the white or the black myself; I'd get the gold one just to be different, but, it wont be out for awhile, so dont want to wait for it..
As soon as i have the files i plan on working on recovery and if I get bored enough maybe more.

hahaha that's so true. Snap will have better dev support and GPU while the exynos MIGHT be 64bit enabled anytime soon and is definitely faster, but still not sure of how faster in daily use. Now it's up to you and wait for more information to come. For now, that's about it.

No such luck I have sprint service. Sides having a locked Note 4 wouldnt be much fun or do me any good with trying for recovery

you give me far too much credit, i port recoveries and do minor things. bootloader exploits are beyond my scope of even understanding how many actually work.
The Exynos model should be faster, better on battery, and possibly offer 64-bit down the road. I'm going with that one.

WARNING!!! Fake vs Real Note 4

Warning!! I just came across this at work when my co-worker asked me to set up his phone. I realized something was wrong when I saw the screen and size of this note 4. I decided to show it off for those who is considering picking up one from ebay or Craigslist. See the comparison from a real note 4 and see for yourself. There's no real difference w/ the software but the hardware might be a concern since the battery(charger) is not Original it might blow-up or melt. The fake one is really flaky and has weird random vibration and I would not recommend using it at ALL!!
Is the bootloader unlocked? Jk.
They make and sell a replica of the note 4' I've seen s couple of really good knockoffs, but they run like sh.t. Your boy got a fake phone

Update: my friend said the phone got too hot and screen is barely visible.
Thank God I got mine from the Verizon store and not Amazon.
Is this even a problem if you have Verizon? Just pop your Verizon SIM into it and it shouldn't activate.

I was kind of wondering why this was posted in the Verizon thread. From the painted back to the locked boot, it seems pretty easy to tell if a Verizon phone is the real deal. With that said, compared to the TMO phone, buyer beware
I prefer the color of the fake's one

Can someone with A510 or A710 (Galaxy A5/7 2016) download AIDA64 and screenshot

I would like to see the "Devices" screen in particular, as I'm interested in which CMOS these phones are utilizing. Thanks in advance!

And who was asking about OnePlus?

Xfinity Mobile S8 appears to be Exenyos variant.

https://www.xfinity.com/mobile/shop/device/galaxy-s8-samsung?colorName=Arctic Silver
Take this with a really big dose of salt but the specs listed on this page point to the Exenyos version. Can anyone on Xfinity mobile confirm? I ordered one just for giggles and it'll be here wednesday.
S8+ on xfinity is not exynos.
I'm not sure what specs you're referring to. The specifications match the Snapdragon 835's specs exactly.
*EDIT*
Nevermind, I was looking at band information, you must be looking at clock speed. Probably a typo.
I got mine last week, per CPU-Z, SnapDragon 835 2.36 Ghz.

Rumor

It will be true that tomorrow it will be released for LG G6 H870-- 10 may -2018
Any source???
I read this recently on Reddit, but the guy did not put any sources either..
I think we just have to wait a few days / weeks, there are two versions that were updated last days, there is no reason that it does not happen quickly on others !
So just relax the ass, and enjoy life while waiting ?

#FakeNews
Posting a opinion is one thing, but saying an "opinion" without any evidence and the only thing to say about it is "just believe me that it will", is a total atrocious behavior.

may not be so privileged .. for the v30 there was two updates, one in 8.0 without ThinQ, and one in 8.1 with ThinQ in the same week, just depended on the model..
Maybe we will be lucky enough to have ThinQ functions directly, with a little hope :silly:
