Hey guys, I've been Samsung ftom the S2 and I was hoping to get some help with regards to the G3 (D855)

I'm interested in the following in a phone:

USB OTG
Multiwindow Support
Rootable
Removable Battery
SD Card Support
FM radio (yes, really)

So after having researched abit Ive decided on the LG G3 rather then the LG G4 and other flagships (though open to any recommendations)?

With the Samsung Galaxy S4 I've been able to power and use OTG to my 1TB Transcend Hardrive without external power. Can anyone test if the LG G3 can power a usb-powered 1 or 2 TB Hardrive without having to connect a y-splitter or similar to power the hardrive?

Anyone from South Africa can chime in on how Vodacom and Cell C perform on the phone?

If anyone had issues with the screen (yellow tint) or low battery after how long did it appear or is it apprent with the older batches (reason I ask is I want to know how long before I can root it (warranty to see if there's a manufacturing defect)?

I had it getting hot, battery dropping and then yellow tint on the right hand side within the first e months (phone was New in Jan)
Swapped on warranty may and been ok but can't get over 3 hrs sot which others appear to get. (I am fully stock v5.0 lollipop)

Regarding usage in South Africa, CellC doesn't seem to have LTE coverage (I couldn't get it to work) but swapped to MTN) and working perfectly. Full LTE coverage.

Never tried with Vodacom but I would guess it would be similar to MTN
