LG G3 (CDMA) - User Reviews

  • will it work in the hood cuz

  • I got the phone and the only thing I can tell if you are willing to buy it, is... read all the opinions the phone has in this post and believe every single one cuz it is true

  • Savvy question, buddy. Next time type when you're not unconscious.

  • The worst phone ever. I have used 4 lg g3 and main problem is with battery restarts again and again Phone Temperature is high

  • this phone is not as good as the characteristics say . at the begin the phone is great i mean for the first 4 months but then sometimes is slow . there are some cases when you use the phone for almost 1 or 2 hours is burning a lot

  • is it suitable for cdma

  • To get Jio working with international variants of LG G3, just follow the steps given below. Please remember that your phone MUST be ROOTED. In stock ROM: 1) Download *Shortcut Laster Lite* from Play store. 2) Open the app and tap on the three dots in top right of the screen. Select "Search" 3) Now type 'Hidden Menu' in the box. 4) Search for 'com.verizon.hiddenmenu.LTEbandselection'. It will now request root access. Grant it permission. 5) Tap on LTE bands and select all LTE bands. 6) Reboot your phone. For custom ROM: 1) Download and install *Network Signal Guru* from Play Store. 2) Open the app. (Internet connection should be active while opening the app for the first time) 3) Now tap on the 3 dots on the top right of the screen. Select Band selection. 4) Now tap on LTE. Enable all LTE bands. The second step can be used in any custom ROM (as far as I know).

  • This is best phone ever.LG have only one bad trait and that is (Camera).........If they improve their Camera i hope than LG will be the No.1 company in the world..... By the way it is the best phone supports 4k video and even supports 1080p video with HEVC codec on Mx player.....

  • Go to xda LG g3 device forum, and search the forums for the many fixes to device lag for g3... While I'm certain there are some decent fixes that don't include root, your best bet would still be to root your device and begin the process of learning how to manage your settings to best meet your desired use

  • Hey I'm tryna switch to metro pcs with my LG g3 does it work good and all,u have to,so,is switch to,gsm and that's its or what?

  • There is!

  • personally as I am a cricket customer and did have straight talk, it's far better to go with cricket than straight talk as you get more high speed data for the same money, and have at&t's full coverage since they own cricket now. As long as you don't need more than one phone on your account, you can get the advanced plan with 20gig of high speed data per month for 55.00 a month on auto pay. you can bring your own phone or buy one of theirs on website, and yes you don't have to have a store in your area to sign up. In fact it's cheaper through the website as you don't have to pay the 25.00 activation fee by doing it online. As far as the phone goes, I am wondering about the dual band phone and if it would be a good idea or not to get as it's not needed as long as you get a gsm unlocked or it can be locked to at&t to use with cricket, a locked at&t phone will work with them. The D850 (ATT) or the D855 (t-mobile and unlocked of course will work well, that I am sure of.

  • The Verizon one is factory unlock to work with att sim even the straight talk att sim just insert it and fix apn settings that's it the sim would show a question mark on it but it still works

  • Just get the att straight talk sim in insert it that's it but of course you got to set up the apn settings

  • Is the lg g3 with verizon gsm or cdma and can I swithch the service to straighttalk? Can someone please help me???? I am not a phone guru

  • Yes you can unlock it for gsm. I currently use a Verizon lgg3 for metro pcs that is sister to T-Mobile. Just select gsm mode in settings.

  • Yes...I have one that's coma and use it for metro pcs. Just select gsm mode.

  • please amend, the VS985 model also has HSPA support.

  • No software update on 5.0 wastage of my money :( this is worst. too many Bolt apps which consume battery for nothing

  • Can you use a sim card on a unlocked cdma lg g3 phone?

  • Why their is no lollipop update for this model? :(

  • how can i get the phone

  • Hi :) Anybody knows if this CDMA vision can be unlocked ! Thnx
