    LG G Pro 2 On the way, will this be the end for our OGP's?

    I love this phone as it is but would like to see a 4.4 update and if it is not forthcoming this year I doubt that I would upgrade to another LG phone simply on principle. If LG cares so little to keep their current customers up to date with current software I don't care to further boost their...

    64GB Micro SD Card

    I have the Sandisk Ultra 64GB Class 10 card in my OGP. The first one I got from Amazon worked but would randomly unmount itself. I RMA'ed for replacement and the one sent back has been faultless and worked great without having to reformat. If you look at the reviews for this card on Amazon it...

    Bluetooth dropping

    I've been using my OGP with both a Blue Parrot B250-XT headset and a Logitech UE moblie boombox for 5 months now. I've had zero issues with either. I also rarely get a dropped call at all, which was not the case with the Atrix 2, the phone I had before the OGP. It would regularly drop calls.

    Side buttons layout is terrible

    I actually like the button placement on the OGP. I'm a truck driver and the phone stays mostly in the vehicle dock while I'm on the road. It's easy to turn the screen off and on or adjust volume. I don't see how the LG G2 would be functional with the buttons on the back in a dock, at least not...

    voice control?

    I'm a driver too and use a Blue Parrot headset, it works exceedingly well. If you do get the LGOP and will be looking for a vehicle dock for it I can recommend the IBolt Pro dock, it's $40 on amazon

    Rooting/ROMs

    I was anxiously waiting for roms too, but after using the OGP for a couple of months now and becoming more and more familiar with the UI I think I'm just going to stick with it.... unless something dramatically innovative comes out anyway :). I have rooted, installed Titanium backup and froze...

    Gps on the optimus g pro

    I've only had to use the download on the Manage a GPS state once so far. That was about a month ago. It says that the download gets GPS assistance data from the internet. All I know is that it worked for me. I haven't had the problem you have. The only time I got a message that it was searching...

    Gps on the optimus g pro

    I had a similar problem with my OGP when I first got the phone. It wouldn't resolve my location either, it would time out. The app "GPS Status and Toolbox", a free app on Google Play fixed this problem for me. When you start the app hit the menu key and go to "tools". Select "Manage a GPS...

    LG Optimus G Pro Review from Me (WPCentral Ambassador)

    Very nice review! I thought you covered the best points of the OGP accurately. The Nokia's and the high end androids shine in different ways. Different phones for different folks!

    How to upgrade the keyboard

    I'm using the LG keyboard as the default. I use the swype method and I like it pretty well although I'm still learning. I have limited android experience but this is the nicest keyboard I've experienced.

    Does anyone have trouble with the narrow home button?

    I'm fine with it too, only thing I've had to get used to are the volume buttons with a TPU case but I'm getting better with them too.
