LG Tribute 2 - User Reviews

  • Could someone help me unlock this phone.. I did do a hard reset .. I'm going to the Philippines and want to give to someone that cant afford a phone.. I'm hoping that it will work. Going to be using the Globe network over there.. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.. thanks

  • goes on top of the sim card I think

  • My bad..It's a K3 Not K7.

  • Nice LG Tribute 2 Phone,My 3rd LG phone.LG G2(r.i.p.) and K7 Now.I own both K7 And an Tribute 2.I like the Tribute 2 with it's Fast 5.1.1 ..It's a Textnow.Holds charge longer than K7 with 6.01.Tribute 2 is like an LG G2 but more snappier.Can use an MicroSD card.Wi-fi seems Faster with the 5.1.1.I'm liking the Tribute 2 only if it was Bigger than the K7.

  • Only the network it is locked to can unlock it properly.

  • pls i need your help. i want to unlock my phone. what do i do?

  • I reset my phone and i lost or it's show no service on my LG Tribute 2(LG Leon LG LS 665)

  • Yes. You must get your phone unlocked.

  • Text Now used / goes three Sprint here and it is not the best but totally worth the price.

  • the back comes off

  • yes...All deleted camera pictures will be stored in trash folder for seven days .

  • Are you happy with the service from TextNow?Does it have alot if Towers and Do they drop calls?

  • How did you get the microsd card in? There appears to be no slot.

  • I got an error APN setting on this model in attempt to connect with freedompop service . Right now on my phone , it showed No APNs with the icon is greyout so cannot edit the infos for freedompop . Does this mean Boost Service doesn't allow me to use any outside cell phone service except its Boost plan ? What do I need to do as I read this phone can use the freedompop service as long as one can edited the APN infos fully .

  • I have this phone with Boot but now want to set APN for freedompop but the APN icon is greyout so cannot able to set for freedompop internet data service . What can I do now to make my phone work ? Do I have to come to Boots Store to ask them to adjust the APN icon so I can set it to work with freedompop ??? ( on the Access Point Network Page on my phone , the icon with the update sign is greyout and underneath it showed No APNs = Boots Mobile doesn't allow me to set it my choice of internet service ??? )

  • CHARLIE SEZ See my previous post ... 'NUFF SAID

  • CHARLIE SEZ I got my LG TRIBUTE 2 in December 2016. I have a 32GB SD Card inserted. I really like the Lollipop OS and the photos can be automatically downloaded to the SD Card.I get very nice audio through my Bluetooth speaker and Bluetooth Headset ... The device is lightweight and easy to type on. I am another satisfied customer. 'NUFF SAID

  • Photos that have been deleted are stored in the Trash Folder for 7 days, after which they are deleted permanently.⚠ To reply: 'NUFF SAID

  • is it a good phone to use?

  • Does any one know how to unlock this phone ?

  • Does anyone know how to retrieve deleted camera photos? Blerg! That little trash can is way too close to the share icon and I have accidentally deleted photos that I want!

  • pls i have lg ls66o showing invalid card when i insert my simcard kindly help me.

  • This phone is a wonderful phone. It is very cheap, and it works well. It is fairly fast, responsive, and the camera is good enough. This phone does not look the best, but it sure does have great hardware performance and I was, and still am, presently surprised by how wonderful it is. Also, you don't have to be worried about dropping it and having to dish out $700 bucks for a worthless piece of bologna. This phone has an okay display which is not the best, but it is reliable and it it is possibly the only major downfall for this phone, other than that it is only available for Sprint and it's subsidiaries [and the carriers that run off of Sprint].

  • Bro dual sim use panalama?

  • Try textnow, they use this phone and it works well and soooo cheap!

  • I can't find the Tribute 5 anywhere on gsmarena lol! So I chose the next best thing to become a fan of. x) Anyway, I've only had my LGLS675 for Sprint (Black) for about 2 or 3 months, but so far it's the best phone I've ever had. Of course, my last phone was an Optimus Elite, so it's a *nice* upgrade. I like Samsung too, but LG pwns as well, in my experience and most humble opinion, at least. I won't state my opinion on Sprint, as I've found–to my abject dismay–that bringing up one's views on a particular mobile carrier is akin to speaking of politics or religion, and so I'll refrain. But the 5 (and the 2 xP) is a beautiful phone.

  • You can bypass the handsfree activation screen. Check this post to do the same. Is it for tribute 5 but the procedure is same -

  • i had purchased the LG LS665 model in 2 month back ,but still cdma network has been closed so we try to gsm sim card but network not showing so we unable to use the gsm card so pls provide me solution.. how to use the gsm card from handset

  • i used this mobile last 15 days very nice. fone from usa , lock open from local market.

  • Are you sure it does not work with Reliance?

  • I received the phone in good condition. I wanted to use it with Reliance CDMA network. However, i have been informed that the phone cannot be used with CDMA network and that it has to be used as a GSM mobile only. This aspect was not conveyed by the seller.

  • Any phone user of the DUO version let me know how or where does the 2nd sim goes there is no info online about how to insert the 2nd sim card. of hos the phone work in regards to CDMA and GSM

  • I am looking to buy this phone in pune(INDIA) but i need the Duo phone . does it support both CDMA and GSM sim as will be using a reliance CDMA sim and a bsnl GSM sim in it.

  • I love this phone but i cant find some stuff in the settings like how to cuztomize the lockscreen "pattern" dots

  • Is this mobile is cdma or gsm.

  • help received this phone from my mom in the usa but when we opened it just stay in configuring your phone screen with the phone pic and a satellite pic keep waiting its almost took me 30 mins and it is still there can anyone help please

  • This is on any android phone. You can multitask but when using the data used when calling, it shuts off your 3g/lte, you can still surf on WiFi though.

  • This phone must be awesome if thats what you care about and that guy complaining about a one time first startup tutorial

  • What is garbage phone. Boots up in GERMAN - multiple voices speaking. Forces you to take a tutorial - never again!

  • you can turn just 3g or lte

  • It is available for virgin mobile and boost mobile. Look in your local Wal-Mart

  • I received the LS665ZV4 update today and the first thing I noticed is the my 3G and LTE icons are different. No animated icons, just very small 3G or LTE and that is it. I wonder if this is supposed to conserve battery life? Does anyone else have any experiences with this update on Boost?

  • Go & buy from EBay

  • hye i want to bye this phone but it is not avilaible in any store atleste not in lg showroom, plz help

  • hye i want to bye this phone but it is not avilaible in any store atleste not in lg showroom, plz help

  • Does it support otg?

  • lg g2 look for it on amazon

  • I need to buy an LG Forn but stranded which one is the best.Should worth not more than 250 $ Please any advice?

  • I meant to say with the 4G turned off and the location setting to battery saver. The stand-by battery time is excellent for a 1900 MAh battery.

  • I do not believe you can surf the internet while engaged in a call. I just tried it the other night, no luck. Hope this helps.

  • I cant be on a call and use the internet at the same time....?????

  • Just got the Tribute 2 a few days ago. The 218 ppi seems to be a fair display to me When I apply a Display Tester app, it measures my screen at 240 ppi. A qHD or even an HD screen would eat up more battery. For a 1900 Mah battery, I was still at 70% or greater at days end with the 4G and location turned to battery saver. The screen has pixels showing if I really look, but for a budget phone I feel it has a vibrant display for its class.

  • really bro?

  • nice,it is suitable for me.Somebody tell me it is a budget phone?

  • Will boost model work with GSM Carrier..?

  • No, 218 ppi is not very good. That's basically the same display as the Leon. Too many pixels unless you really hold it far away. And, 4.5 is too small to hold far away. My minimum is 240.

  • If you compare this with L70 for example than this phone has very good specs/improvement. The price just 100 dollar for 4G/1gbRam/1.2Ghz Quad Core and 218ppi is very good.

  • Come here and I will give you a 'break'.

  • toy doesn't need more than 200 dpi

  • LG, will you please get smart with the ppi? 218? Give me a break.

  • nice phone for a highschool student
