bretton88 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I bet the Korean version had 3GB of RAM. Sent from my M8 According to the reviews it only had 2GB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiWavelength Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 took some debug and data screens for you all The SCC signal metrics are very nice. I was concerned that engineering screens would not be updated to display carrier aggregation. AJ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twospirits Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I'm curious, is the procedure to get the engineering screen on the LG is different than say a Samsung? TS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoses Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 as far as i've been able to see, unless you are rooted on your samsung phone you can't get to the debug screen. on the LG phones its just the standard ##DEBUG# and ##DATA# 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnoj Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 LTE Roaming and CA will be activated via software update when sprint is ready. Perhaps in the meantime they can be manually enabled? as far as i've been able to see, unless you are rooted on your samsung phone you can't get to the debug screen. on the LG phones its just the standard ##DEBUG# and ##DATA# My S4 is currently un-rooted and can access those screens. I'm also still able to do other things like flash PRL's without root. That said, my phone's always been a bit of an odd beast. It was originally a PLBL (wholesale) model, which has the benefit of having no carrier branding or bloatware, but unfortunately (perhaps consequently) certain apps like Sprint Zone & Sensorly don't work correctly I've also played with some newer Samsung phones like the S5 & Note 4 at the Sprint store, and I'm pretty sure that ##DEBUG# at least worked on those, so it may vary from device to device.

lilotimz Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Perhaps in the meantime they can be manually enabled? Nope. You can try but it won't work. A software update from the manufacturer is required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transitwatch889 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 so just came from the Sprint store to check out the G flex on display and the ui lag is quite horrendous! but definitely going to need to do an update before release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcarp Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Do we know anything about the RF performance of this phone yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoses Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Do we know anything about the RF performance of this phone yet? just the numbers from the FCC OET. I posted a comparison of the Flex and the Flex 2 here http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/6647-lg-g-flex-2-fcc-id-znfls996/page-4&do=findComment&comment=395489 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanielB Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Pictures don't do this thing justice. Beautiful device. Works fantastically. No overheating issues at all. Great radios. Will update more as I use it more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dedub Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 A friend of mine bought one today, and he won't shut up about how great it is. he had a note 2 previously. So that's one random opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordsutch Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I happened into the local Sprint store today to try to get a SIM for my on-the-way Nexus 6 (no dice - Sprint really needs to cut down on the number of different SIM SKUs it has), and it seemed like it was being pushed pretty heavily - employees wearing shirts with the Flex emblazoned on them, etc. If it had Qi charging, I might have been sold on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoses Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Got mine!!!! Still getting it setup but so far I'm loving it! Still wish it was a 6" screen but I will get used to it I'll post some more after I've had some time with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcarp Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I'm very interested in hearing battery reports. GSMArena is reporting very medicore battery results compared to other phones with that battery capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoses Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 small update, worked on getting everything setup last night and had a birthday party today so haven't got to play with it a ton. I was using it a bunch to take pictures and record both UHD and HD videos today. It did get hot while doing the UHD video recording and at one point the video started stuttering. I bumped it down to 1080p HD and it did fine after that. When it was hot it was slowly taking my display brightness down too. I had it at 100% auto and the lowest it got down to was 70% auto and it wouldn't let me set it higher until it cooled off. i'll post final battery stats from today later tonight once it gets down lower. so far i'm at 36% left, its been on batter for 5h 36 min. screen on time of 1 hour 33 min at 39% and android OS at 15% with CPU total at 44 min and keep awake at 1 hour 26 min. signal wise i would say its about the same as my flex. hard to compare though since i had to turn my flex back in so i'm trying to go off of memory. B25 might be 1-2 DB better, i was hoping B41 would be better based on the FCC OET test results, but so far B41 appears to be the same. oh, and if anyone wants their MSL for their phone just follow parts 1 and 2 of this guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47324060 worked perfect for me. you can go one step further and flash a custom PRL with it too if you want. so far i love it though, i do miss the 6" screen from the flex, but everything else about this phone is way better than the flex, especially the camera! no more grainy photos for this guy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoses Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 oh, and if anyone wants root on their Flex 2 i just found this guide http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-lg-g-flex-2-g2-g3-on-lollipop/ and went through it and it worked! thank goodness i have airplane mode in signal check pro back!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoses Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 here are the battery stats for today. they did get thrown off a little bit because i had to hook my phone up to my computer while i was rooting it for a few minutes, plus it restarted several times and looks like it threw off some of the stats. anyway, here is what the battery info screen shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanielB Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I'm very interested in hearing battery reports. GSMArena is reporting very medicore battery results compared to other phones with that battery capacity. Honestly, it's about the same as the G3....not stellar, but not quite as bad as the iPhone 5, 5S, or 6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
