Yep It's written on the box.
Hi,
I'm in the UK and I work in the gadget repair industry. I have been asked to sort out an LG Optimus Big LU6800 that's having problems with the Wifi and Bluetooth. It's locked to a South Korean phone network called LG U+ (No Sim card)
After a couple of hours of research (which has been difficult given that there's not much English documentation or discussion on this phone) I think I've worked out that LG U+ have the phone locked down so that the WiFi and Bluetooth functionalities don't work unless you purchase a data plan with the network. I've also read that they blacklist the phone if the contract plan is terminated, also rendering Wifi and Bluetooth unusable. Is this even possible, or is this what they might have done?
Can anyone help me on this? Or can anyone fluent in Korean do some Googling on my behalf to find this out. I know it's not a hardware problem as I have already replaced the antenna to no avail. (this is my first experience with CDMA phones, I've never seen one before). I can't even boot the phone into developer mode, it seems like they've locked that down too .. meaning I don't actually know how I'm going to go around sorting this phone out.
Hopefully someone can help me, this seems like a good forum.
Thanks.
I'm about to get an LG G2, probably sprint or verizon edition.
Is it possible to unlock the Sprint/Verizon LG G2 to use it on T-Mobile or worldwide carriers? With 4G and LTE?
Are there good ROMs for this device? Does it come with an in built backup like Motorola has its RSD lite?
Thanks!

Yes you can unlock these models to work on any GSM carrier, and I recommend resurrection remix rom or cloudy g3,Res Remix rom is the latest version of Android (5.0.2)

You won't get LTE on the Sprint model on T-Mobile I think. I don't know about Verizon. 3.5G HSPA+ will work fine though. As for good ROMs, you'll have to deal with bugs. Though I had good luck with dr87's Madhi ROM (kitkat). A pity he's retired from the G2 deving scene...

do remember that the maximum number of ROMs/accessories are for the GSM series (D800/801/802/803)
Get the Verizon model
It also has Qi Wireless Charging, Unlocked GSM radios, good rom support.

Thanks for the heads up!
Does the Verizon model support the bands of LTE for other carriers though?

I'll keep this in mind, the only ROM I'd like so far is CM12 though

Thank you for your ROM recommendation, although I believe the Sprint model can't use LTE/4G on other GSM networks.

It's great that the Sprint edition of the G2 is cheaper, but it won't work for my T-Mobile 4G plan I guess.
Bugs are fine, I've been on my Atrix 2 for ages and flashed more than 10 ROMs
Just a quick question: If I get any version of the G2 that's locked, can I flash a custom ROM to unlock it?

What do you mean by locked?

It is locked to Verizon, being a Verizon phone... but it has Unlocked GSM bands... so it will work with AT&T and Tmobile with no problem, without tweaking. I believe you can also flash actual Tmobile/AT&T roms on it. I am not 100% certain but I am pretty sure I have heard of people doing this to gain extra carrier specific stuff like T-Mobile's WiFi calling.
Also I like CloudyG3 2.0 rom. CM12 Lollipop also works great on the Verizon G2
I don't think that the Verizon G2 will work with T-Mobile LTE either, unless it supports both T-Mobile's and Verizon's LTE bands. You can use T-Mobile with either device, just no LTE.
What about the AT&T model? Can I tweak that to work worldwide and with T-Mobile 4G?

I can attest to this - I took my G2 to the Philippines without modification and was able to use it on their GSM network.
Why would you want a G2, as a stock phone it is one of the best ever, BUT as a phone for flashing roms and stuff, it is like a cold wet rag, yeah we have some FULLY functioning stock based and ported roms, there are also some cute roms that are far from fully functional (AOSP, CM, PA, etc etc),yeah you can have themes but you can bet you will be giving up something for pretty icons, i.e rotation, BT, GPS, Volume, screen damage, etc., hell sometimes you might give up all of these, smh.
If you want to flash "fully functioning" non-alpha/beta roms then check out some other phones too before making that purchase.
As far as getting phones from one company to work on another's network, I thought that if they do not allow the IMEI number it won't matter what you do to unlock. Maybe I am mistaken.

Most people I've see post about it on vzw get LTE NP, and everything seems to work well for them.
There was a good bit of people having issues with screen damage, but a lot of that has weened off, haven't seen anyone post about it for a while.
Been flashing this vs980 daily for over a year, and its good to go. Best phone I've purchased.

I think you're wrong. There are some great ROMs for the G2. Even CM12 i heard runs surprisingly flawless. I personally love the LG ROMs and running a G3 port that is super solid. The G2 is a wicked phone and has a sweet dev community because of it.
I've not heard any negative complaints.

I don't think that they own a G2. CM11 was as solid as stock and the CM12 based roms are great with only very minor issues.
