  • Hi guys, My phone is always overheating everything im using the application WAZE. Do I need to update the software or anything to fix the issue. I'm having a hard time specially if it overheats because it will stop charging and will leave me w/ a deadbatt phone. I badly need it since I'm always driving and will get lost w/out the navigation help. Thanks heaps!

  • It is a really good phone but it has some problem if you can help me with it. it is only LTE and the coverage is not that good and there is no option to convert it from LTE to 3G or 2G. so it does not recognize the sim card.

  • You can update it via OTA by checking it in your phone settings or by using a program from your pc. The release of the update depends of what region you are.

  • Just received an update popping in my screen. It's an 260+ mb purposely for security and stability update. After the update I have noticed that my LG G3 (F460L) become cooler than before after playing games for an hour it doesn't over heat or heat much not exceeding 60 degrees Celsius. What I have observed is that they limit the clockspeed to 1.7 ghz to limit the heating issue but without sacrificing much in terms of the performance. The speed is still there but a little bit slower. I am hoping that they release the android nougat update anytime soon for a lot of improvements.

  • The latest OTA update was good even though they underclocked the cpu to solve the heating issue but still it performed good it can handle heavy 3d games with ease.

  • Ive just recieved the latest update via OTA just few days ago. I would say it's awesome because my phone f460l to be specific becomes much faster and heating is minimal i would say. About the battery life maybe it improve a little bit. I would recommend that you update your lg g3 cat 6 now.

  • I am suffering from the same problem .. And the lg repair service is so bad in my country .. Some told me it's a problem in the screen .. Some told me it's a problem in the ic power while others told me it's a motherboard problem .. And i don't what to do ?? I am feeling frustrated

  • Guys What about the battery life?.Does this phones battery drains faster?

  • Now that my G3 Cat.6 was running the latest Android Marshmallow, my antutu benchmark reaches 75,000... It runs very smooth and it doesn't heat much when i'm playing games it only hits to 55 degrees Celsius unlike from the previous Android Lollipop it reaches to 80 degrees Celsius and the battery drains very fast.. Android M is perfect for me for everyday use because it has a good battery life..

  • Brother i havent got the Android M update,

  • i have updated my F460L to android M, ive noticed that it is smoother than the previous android L and also it doesn't heat much, i like the performance on android L but bugs is always there just few bugs ive noticed..

  • Android M is now available for G3 Cat. 6. I just installed through LG PC Suite. I feel is much better and faster than Android L.

  • Where'd you get that news? Been searching for hours and still I can't find anything.

  • LG just released Android M for LG G3 Cat.6 just few hours. Everyone can upgrade this OTA or download KDZ.

  • Dude, Can you send me a link of the rom you used on this phone?thanks. my email is [email protected]

  • hi folks! this phone suports tdd lte 38 band? thank you

  • Its really a superb and fast phone its far better then samsung 3 and any other model, no heat up superb battery timing and to fast processing must buy this flagship i like and love my device THANK YOU LG !!!

  • This has been by daily driver for over 6 months now. It's an absolute beast of a phone, and outperforms most 2014 flagships thanks to its not having the fated Snapdragon 810. - I was worried that the network bands wouldn't be compatible with the networks in Canada where I live, but I've been able to connect to the 4G networks of the 2 major phone companies in my area without any issues. - The camera wasn't the main reason I bought this phone, but it's the best camera I've ever had on a smartphone, hands down. The pictures are crisp and detailed, thanks to the OIS and laser autofocus (which is also a fun feature to tell the iSheeple about: "My phone focuses with LAZORZ!") - Because of its small bezel, it's very easy even for one-handed use, in spite of having a 5.5" screen. - Speaking of the screen, the Quad-HD display is very pretty, and while I would have preferred 1080p for better battery life, I have no problems getting through a normal day without worrying about my phone's battery running out. - The only downside is that the stock firmware came with a lot of Korean bloatware that was difficult to turn off because it had no English translation. I eventually flashed a custom ROM and it now runs bloatware-free and smooth as butter!

  • lg g3 korean modle iz the best ...

  • had the same experience. change ur sim to an LTE sim to be able to connect

  • Is this Phone really worth the money. Iwant to uy on but need more Reviews and yo Guys Opinon on this Phone. Your Reviews and Opinons will help me make up mind about this Phone. Thanks.

  • Can anyone tell me how to fix the over heat issue about this phone some says u must root it please tell me how to do it thnx.

  • restart device or select network mode to wcdma only or 3g only

  • Hey guys please help me, my phone lg g3 have failed to support 3g. Even when data connection is on.

  • Korean or not Korean what you said does not mean the slightest

  • i go for g4

  • guys can i ask something to all of you??? you know the LG G4beat is going to launch right?? soon, i'll buy a new LG phone.. wich should i buy?? LG G4beat with a new condition or LG G3 with secondhand condition??? because bot of them maybe have the same price bad english guys, i still at highschool, i want to buy new phone for me with my own money, thanks~

  • Only lucky korean people will have this phone, for the rest of the world laggy g3. Why there is no f.king european company makes good phones, why we fkn depend on these companies. BTW: I like korean people, I have no problem with them at all, they are smart en lovely people. don't understand me wrong. I hate only what LG and Shamesung doing.

  • 160 char limit from is GSM service not by phone, some telephones merges messages in to one but which means not its only one message. If you have unlimited sms bundle then no problem but if you hame sms limits then you should consider that again.

  • Does anyone know how to bypass the messaging character limit of this device? Without the use of 3rd party apps of course.. 160 characters are just not enough.

  • it doesn't have a limit to 4k it might just get a bit warm

  • it is upgradeable to 5.0.1 lollipop mine is version 20e 5.0.1

  • Can somebody tell me the video recording quality of this fone? most of the current has a 4k video recording cap/limit of 5mins. hw bout this one?

  • it can't be upgrade to lollipop??

  • OS for the phone is until kitkat only. nothing further than that.

  • I have this exact phone which was purchased from south Korea and it works fine on orange sim also tried Vodafone and O2 all work fine with no problems UK.

  • i didn't get the lolipop update till now , when ever i check it keeps telling me that i've the last updated OS but my current OS version is 4.4.2 [ Kitkat ] i'm from egypt.. any suggestions ?!

  • excellent phone this is better then note3 iphone 6

  • excellent phone this is better then note3 iphone 6

  • How is this phone in BATTERY BACKUP...And Internet speed....?? Set heat problem ...? And price ....

  • yes,ano,da

  • this is the best android phone i have ever used better thane iphone 6 even compare with the specs

  • It works with any SIM card - the phone is unlocked. Regarding your carrier - please check the frequency. If the frequency of the phone matches the frequency of your carrier - it will work.

  • Guys can anyone tell me can i use this phone on Europe GSM networks? Will it work with Europe sim card? Thanks

  • fantastic

  • This G3 Cat.6 is best in All of G3. Korean Company Serves 300mbps internet for mobile. And KT(olleh) serves 1024mbps! internet serves for coputer. G3 Cat.6 supply only 225mbps internet. Other version supply 50mbps, 100mbps, 150mbps.

  • Why not benchmarks for this G3 model?, it's supposed to be more powerful because of it's CPU. We want to see it with numbers.

  • I used many Korean variants like Samsung, LG, Pantech. All phone performance is better than the international versions. Better benchmarking, better battery life. I used galaxy note II, international version and also Korean version. Both with same specs but a little bit performance difference.

  • Lte A haa bettee cpu and gpu

  • which one is better? lg g3 full or lg g3 lte-A

  • i saw the lg g3 under water (water proof) so why wrote i most web sayed not proof?!!!!!

  • LTE-A = LTE-Advanced. It combines different spectrums together, like the MIMO does.

  • What reference is the LG G3 of Verizon? D85..?

  • Does anybody know where you could get it from? Thanks!

  • Can anyone please tell me that what frequencies comes under TD-SCDMA/HSDPA & LTE-A. Thank You.

  • when this device come to middle east?why the korea do this work "make to models for g3"

  • best phone ever

  • i love the selfie camera mode, just crunch your finger and it shoot

  • "why does this come?" because in korea, it supports cat.6

  • There is no point in reviewing this phone since it is a korean exclusive. This version will never come to europe just like the s5 lte-a which also has the snapdragon 805 cpu

  • For just how long?? 2 weks, one month?

  • Awesome phone but it just doesn't worth a lot more than a s801 version which does it's job very well! I think this is a geek's phone.

  • i do hope GSMArena will do another test on this fone vs. the rest of the fones... esp. SGS5...

  • i think this one will beat the rest of the flagship phones...

  • quad core 2.7 GHz ?! Damn ! is it gonna be available for Europe ?

  • You post is funny because you're actually serious. My Nokia 7210 had a fm radio, never used it. I might be willing to sell if the price is right; interested? :-P

  • G3 Cat.6 is now available in South Korea since July 25th. :)

  • Well nt living in south korea tho, living in asia.

  • If LG makes G3 LTE-A (aka Cat. 6) for other countries except South Korea, I guess there will be the FM radio support on it.

  • if ur living in south korea will advise u to get this phone.

  • It better than Galaxy s5 but it will cost very high and more money to buy it is not worth it. By the time the cost is low iPhone6 will be out and everyone will want to go for it. Am still a fun of android don't worry.

  • just want to ask kinda confused in getting this phone or either note 3.please advice.

  • I want this!!! =)

  • south korea

  • Where can I buy it?

  • 2.1 MB? Where are you from ? Its 2.1 MP

  • It's MP not Mb or MB

  • Pointless to wait, it might never come to the international market. If some dealer stocks it up the increase markup will be too high to make it worth while by any stretch.

  • i m shocked too,NO FM Radio,how could that be,are the specs referring to Korean version only. Will there be an international version like D855 having FM Radio. Ironically it will be good news for those who have purchased the D855 model. Maybe it's fair and balanced,you have the power CPU,but i have the FM Radio.

  • hope they release this phone with other colour varients =)

  • have td-scdma but no td-lte, gsmarena are you sure?

  • yes, g3 lte-a is available in south korea only now. and in south korea DMB(digital media broadcasting) supported instead.

  • Hmmm i was planning to upgrade my g2 to g3 but lets wait and see what this g3-a is, dont think its a smart move to announce this one few weeks after launching g3 it will definitely slow down its sales which were doing pretty good with its price

  • NO FM, is it true?

  • only problem;; front facing camera is only 2.1 Mb

  • fabulous

  • Awesome Mobile not to be limited for Korea.

  • may consider this phone next year if it ever release come out of korea...
