    The kinda-official LG G4 bootloop thread

    I tried, T-Mobile told me I should have paid for the extra insurance. LG wanted to charge for the repairs. Chalk it up to being unlucky I guess. Seems like lots of folk are unlucky with the g4, more than the usual manufacturing defect rate it seems. But that's just an opinion.

    The kinda-official LG G4 bootloop thread

    I used to be a fan of lg phones. I've owned both Nexus 4/5 and then the g4. Great camera. But the sudden bootloop issue really turned me off of lg phones. I never had any phone break on me and I just couldn't stomach paying lg to fix the g4 while I'm still paying it off. Oh well, I guess we all...

    LG G4 T-Mobile Pre-order & ships 5/27 Plus free 128GB MicroSD card!

    I ordered mine on the website pretty easily the morning of 5/27. Can't wait to get it. Silly me did not pay attention so I ended up with ups ground delivery. Oh well, enough time for me to get a tempered glass screen protector to get ready. I was going to get the plastic back but the leather was...

    LG G4 - Your thoughts?

    On a lg g2 right now. Unfortunate that phones are so large now. But I like what the g4 has to offer. I'll have to see at the store whether the size is going to bother me. Camera is great. Battery capacity looks good. In years past everyone said android cameras were subpar. Now the s6 and g4 have...

    S6 vs M9 Battery Discussion

    Htc m9 vs samsung s6 battery thoughts So here is what I understand SoC - htc has snapdragon 810: 20nm process, samsung has exynos 7420: 14nm. Process shrink usually points to better power efficiency. But I don't imagine at idle or using the a53 cores will make a lot of difference between the...

    ddr3 or ddr4 ram?

    I think Qualcomm spec for Snapdragon 810 is for ddr4 memory. I doubt the majority of consumers care about ddr3 vs ddr4, it's not as understandable as faster SoC/CPU or 20MP camera.

    Nexus 5 - White or Black?

    FWIW every review I've read about phones with soft touch white backs talk about it getting grimy or yellow. White seems to hold up better with glossy plastic. I thought about a white 32gb but got the black instead. Definitely put a cover or transparent skin/protector would be my suggestion. The...

    Poll: 16GB vs 32GB Edition

    32gb nexus 5 for me, when I got the 16gb nexus 4 thought it was enough. But after a year I get uncomfortable with just a few gigs left. Heh Posted via Android Central App
