    Getting phone contacts to display via Bluetooth

    Hope someone can offer some advice on an issue I have. Just had a new Kenwood X7000DAB car stereo fitted, and am trying to sync it via Bluetooth with my G3.

    Terrible battery life on my G3

    I think you are correct. I purchased it from Ebuyer in the UK and it was factory unlocked with nothing tying it to any carrier. One day i will figure out how to root it and get all the LG bloatware off of it!

    Terrible battery life on my G3

    Standby Numbers are Excellent

    I really need to learn how to root my phone and get rid of Lollipop. If i could only get those kind of stats i might not regret having bought this phone as much as i do!

    LG G3 & Three UK

    I just switched to Three from Virgin. Call quality is great. Virgins data speed seemed rubbish and a lot of time it would take an age to open a web page. There is no sign of 4G. At home with Virgin i would get approx 5MB 3G/HSPDA and a very flaky connection . With Three i get 40MB on 4G. At...

    Terrible battery life on my G3

    Hi Lynne22 Thanks for the links to additional batteries and chargers. I have purchased an Anker external battery which should allow me to juice up when required. I like the G3 and took my time over deciding which phone to buy next. The superb camera with laser auto focus was the clincher for...
