My bride is a killer of cellphones and she has just about terminated her ailing SGS4G ...
We are dependent on T-mo wifi calling and for that the SGS4G works, has worked, pretty well. For everything else, since she does not debloat, its got lots of issues.
anyway: I'm wondering if the L9 would feel like an "upgrade" to her? I've had positive experience with LG so I differ with some about how well their things are baked before letting loose on the market.
It is not likely that we will every put a Custom ROM on the L9 since we have to have WIFI calling working with zero issues.
Considering what you like/dislike about the phone, is this a good move, or should I pony up the extra USD's and get the S3 ???
I have the Note 1 and she doesn't seem overly impressed with it [I like it fine for my purposes... slightly debloated/rooted]
thanks for your opines.
L9 is pretty good if you dont care about storage. But you should rather get s3 since the price has fallen beginning of june 12-13th. Including the s4 and note 2. Read here: http://androidcommunity.com/t-mobile-galaxy-s-4-gets-a-summertime-price-drop-20130612/

While I really like the l9 since the upgrade to jb I've have very bad battery life. Fully charged in the morning and about 75% by noon. Everyday I have to charge the phone and until they fix it the problem remains.

No worries he can purchase the L9 with ICS stock rom. Im guessin lol. And Lelus told us that new jb update will arrive soon. So its all good my brotha's.

yes I had read some post-JB comments from L9 pilots and there are things to dislike, one being worse battery life.
I use a Note 1 and the JB is coming sometime for it, and frankly I'm not sure its all so rosy... i had issues with my Nexus 7 [not batt life... mine was great] - lots of niggling things that were rom related. my note 1 will go 2 days on battery, but I'm a taskmaster so keep everything that can be OFF is OFF. i turn it off when I sleep also.
i'll go with the s3... we'll see if she can kill it

Should be happy that the e970 is pretty much identical to the Nexus 4. We already have kitkat... so it does not really matter. Hell, we were one of the first devices to get 4.4
Even though that's the case LG is dropping support for a phone that is less than a year old.

While this may be true, it is still speculation.
The proper question should have been if the OG will be getting 4.2, 4.3, or any update. They just said no to 4.4, which is like 3 version above their last update. I do not know of many (if any) devices that have skipped 3 updates to the latest and greatest.
I'm just stoked that this device has got updated at all. Was not cool spending a truck load of $$$ on 3 of the 1st dual core phones, Motorola Atrix 4g..... that device received ZERO updates.
I learned the hard way to never again buy a phone with the hopes of getting OTA updates. Will either buy a Nexus device, or like I did with the OG... research phones that have the same hardware as a Nexus device.
But you still loose lte.. Its a HUGE step from 3g

For me, it's not even about wanting 4.4 since the major ROMs will all have it within the next few months. It's more about the fact that LG completely ****ed OG users with their godawful updates. I mean, we basically JUST got 4.1 after waiting how long? And then they go ahead and stop development after that? That just pisses me off. While I can easily flash a 4.4 ROM, it's more about principal for me.
LG can make a good device. They were calling the LGOG the "new and improved LG" and trying to restore LG's name with this device. Then they do this for their "flagship" device? That is seriously messed up. I am never going to get another LG-supported device again.
It was released with outdated software so it wouldn't take the spotlight away from N4. Secondly, if LG were to supply an update AT&T would file it in the trash.

I would love a stock version of the latest greatest OS and I'm not disagreeing with any of you on that, but we all have to be realistic about it. It is a pretty well known fact that many and most major corporation are only concerned about profit. The mobile phone business is a extremely competitive business. Releasing the newest OS every time it rolls out costs money for development as they need more developers to maintain every device. Also that would increase the amount of time a person will hold onto a phone, which leads to less phones being sold. They also know that a huge percentage of buyers are going to buy a new damn phone every 6 months just so they can have the latest and greatest. So you will have better odds of winning the lottery, then these companies changing their update policies anytime soon.
It does not matter which company you get a phone from, LG, Motorola, Samsung.... they will all screw you with updates. Samsung may be slightly better with updates, but you still get screwed on updates. My friend has the S4, he has it bone stock and is still on 4.2. It was just confirmed for that device that they will not be getting 4.4 anytime soon. The S4 will get 4.3 soon.... but it will be months before they get 4.4 and it could even be longer then that.
It is what it is. Us consumers are going to get screwed regardless. BUT.... we have the power to be smart consumers. Which is why we are all here at this forum. We are taking the power into our own hands and increasing the life expectancy for our devices on our own.
So there really is nothing to be unhappy about. If you are smart about which phone to buy, you have nothing to worry about. We are all here to help and learn from each other to make our device better then these corporations hand them out to us. The power of this community puts a smile on my face every time. We have control over our (phones) destiny, not them. I would rather rely on the power of the people then rely on the power of some corporation that does not give a **** about you.
lol /end rant :highfive:
All you have to say it were trapped by corporations and were stuck here probably forever because they don't care about the consumers they care about the money they get if the consumers give it to them they already got what they wanted now they're like **** it we have our money

Anyway back to the point.. I got an email today from a friend telling me the g2 is end of life?? Being replaced with s4 or s4 mini... I really would hope this isn't the end of the g2... I know the g3 is coming out and everything else but man this is to quick isn't it? I just got this phone lol... Does anyone know if this is bad or not? I've never really paid attention but the only phone I know was EOL while had it was the Motorola photon and they stopped updating it soon after...

Don't worry about it. LG rarely updates a phone more than once or twice anyway. The devs at XDA will take care of us as long as they still use it. Like you said, it's got more than enough horsepower to last a while. Probably the only real killer will be when everyone goes to x64 operating systems.

This is indeed the phone to beat. Thank you very much for the information you have.
I read that a carrier in Canada has put an "end of life" on the g2, and they do list s4 as an alternative. It's also known that the g3 is in the works and will be out this summer. 4.4.2 may be the last official android version for the g2.
However! There is a huge development community behind the g2, so it's likely that versions will continue well into the future, the g3 ROM will likely be ported to the g2. When the g2 does stop receiving official updates, I would root and be happy with what the devs here can cook up

Why get rid of this phone? This phone is arguably a step above the Nexus line so far. We have plenty of AOSP options to choose from and now that we have official Kit Kat we will surely have plenty of new/more stable options.

All this means is that LG is going to stop producing the phone in favor of a newer model. Samsung makes their phones for years beyond their relevant lifespan and you can still find ancient Galaxy phones like the S2 on the shelves. The S3 is still the absolute go-to phone for any free contract, prepaid or non-contract deals. LG is a much smaller manufacturer and doesn't have the deals and agreements like Samsung does to pimp out their phones.
The Galaxy S4 is not going anywhere, it's going to stick around just as long as any of the Galaxy S flagships if not longer. The LG G2 will just be EoL as far as the carrier is concerned. So if you're a Bell customer, I'd recommend to get familiar with modifying your phone because Bell is likely not to push you any future updates.

Not sure what you mean by deals because the G2 was free much sooner than the S3. The OG and G2 both saw rapid price drops.

When I got my G2, the S3 was being peddled by every single carrier and given out like candy. You are/were able to pick up the S3 on almost any shelf as a prepaid device and if you signed into any deal that had free phones you got a S3. Samsung is still most likely making the S3, "emerging markets"(I assume) and every prepaid company basically relies on that phone. LG has none of those deals really and you'll never find a G2 in a plastic package hanging on a shelf at Walmart. Within 6 months, you'll most likely see the S4 in those packages.
This just says that LG is going to stop production of the G2 most likely because the G3 is coming out. LG doesn't have the market or ability to continue to sell their old flagship phone for years on end. They probably didn't have a huge profit margin on it since they can't sell and pump out millions upon millions of the phone. Thus since sales are tapering off and people are going for the new M8/S5 they're focusing on moving forward.
This could also just simply mean Bell is going to stop selling it since it's not selling well for them.

It's probably only LG's fault, not the carriers. If LG stopped making the G2 and started the G3 (due to limited manufacturing capacity), the carriers can't get any more stock so they list it as End Of Life. Meanwhile, the S4 is still being manufactured (even the S3 4G is still manufactured) so that's why they list it as alternative.

Can you buy a Nexus 4 today, and Google i think has 18 month update policy, so next version might be the last for Nexus 4 too. Fact is in today's tech world, you have a new flagship every 6 months, that does not necessarily mean you have to upgrade every 6 months.
Even if 4.5 is launched by end of this year, 95% of apps will still work on 4.4 and our phone is more then capable to handle them. So sit back and enjoy mate, until you wanna get suck in number wars and not care about the experience
I wouldn't let the EOL tag scare anybody away from this beast of a phone. Thanks to the awesome XDA forums, rooting, and a new battery; I made my old Droid Eris last for 2+ years and still going strong before getting a different phone. And the Droid Eris was EOL like 3 hours after I bought it haha

Nope. The last Android for G2 will be in 2015. Look for Optimus G Pro, it is year old and it got Kitkat 2nd update in Korea. So stop FUD
First of all, I'd like to thank everyone in this forum for creating and supporting development of the G2. LG may not support this phone anymore, but this forum holds strong. That said I am investigating potential upgrades for the G2. I would like suggestions. The following phones will not work:
- Phones that don't support Verizon
- Phones without strong developer communities
- Phones released more than a year ago
Thanks everyone!

Your biggest issue will be the Developer support on a Verizon device. Verizon devices tend to see ALOT less development then GSM based devices. If you liked the G2 then why not get the G3 or G4?

With the state of hardware right now any device released within the past 3 years is still a good device. They will handle anything a new device will. Could look at the moto droid, Not really sure what else verizon has to offer really as there is no Verizon in the State I live in.
Even if LG had dropped support before releasing lollipop, the G2 could still handle 99.7% of everything you throw at it smoothly.
Compare the G2 to new devices. You have 1080P which looks great and doesnt drain the battery. 3000mAh battery, more or same as latest devices. Compare snapdragon 800 to 808/810 and you will only see a good difference in benchmarks. 5.2" screen thats neither too big nor small.
LG did great on the G2, if not too great since upgrades to this day still dont appeal.
Enjoy your G2 and buy something else

I just hope my 4th device is good because I really love the note 7. Had every note that has came out and man do I love the note line of phones. My 3rd note was bad, but not as bad as the first 2 were. Even though my 3rd device had issue, I really hated handing it over for the recall because I could end up with the replacement being as bad as the first 2 devices.
No lag for me either. I loaded manually only the apps I needed.

i will but only when the poll closes and its gonna be in like a week or so. So if u want it before u contact me lol
Phone itself: 10/10
Best phone I've ever had. No lag, great battery (though I did have to disable some bloat to get it), and the phone is gorgeous. My only gripe is the autocorrect which works badly IMO.
This whole recall mess: 4/10
It sucks and it's concerning. My phone hardly gets warm while charging, but you never know if or when something bad could happen. I'm not too scared though.
Im glad Samsung voluntarily took the hit and did the recall. It just sucks now that the government has gotten involved and that everyone is scared and that the media is just eating this up. Once the new phones come, I'll get one and be happy for quite some time!
