[Q] Carrier based phone differences? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I just ordered myself a new G2 at the local Verizon store but they didn't have any cases, and their selection of ones they can order is pretty crap looking to me. I would like to get one of the Spigen slim armor cases but it says they won't work on the Verizon variant of the device. So my question is, why won't it work and has anyone tried it? The device has the same dimensions on both AT&T and Verizon but some people on here say its thicker anyways? If anyone knows a solid answer for this that would be great, Thanks for any help you guys can give.

they don't have the same dimension. the Verizon is a tad thicker because of the wireless charging that the others don't have. because of this, other carrier cases will not fit. I tried it with the poetic and had to return it because it was way too small. you have to get the Verizon version.

Not just that but I hear placement of things like the microphone are different so even if you were able to squeeze one into a more flexible case the openings might not align properly.

Alright so next question, are the G2 and the Optimus G2 the same thing, some covers say they can fit both? This being one example that I found on amazon, sorry not allowed to post link.

I don't think the Optimus G2 exists, since LG dropped the Optimus name for smartphones.

Most likely, but I think the korean version is a little different again. Amazon had the G2 listed as optimus for a little while in the cell phone store though.

Well, that would explain those cases, thanks for the info. Anyone know anything about the date Incipio will put out their line of cases for these things?

Nexus 4 Pouch

I have never used a bumper before, but I am about to
I am especially leary tho because of the Nexus being so fragile
Does anyone know of one of those leather (pleather) pull tab pouches they sell on the internet (Amazon or eBay) that will fit the Nexus 4 WITH the bumper on it? ...or any other solution
Thanks
Eric
Look up a sleeve case for the Galaxy Nexus. I am going to search right now for it and it is a simple sleeve that the phone will slide in and out of and I am almost positive that the nexus 4 will fit perfectly in it.

awesome I just asked my mom to make one like this for me.
does anyone know of any (p)leather pouch with speaker cut-out ??
the problem with the generic (p)leather pouches is that they don't have the speaker cut-out, so you don't hear the phone ringing very well
No, I am sorry i don't
I went with the faux leather pull tab pouches for the Note II. They fit perfectly with the Poetic bumper
I am not sure if they changed the size. Someone said the Case-mate Universal Large Pouch would fit. Not even close

(I do have one of those case mate real leather ones that didn't fit. It retails for $45. I paid $33 with shipping. If anyone wants it for a smaller phone, maybe android or even the iPhone. I will sell for $25 including shipping. Mesg me)

Im getting a LG pocket printer and a LG quick-view case :good:
http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/mobile-phones/LG_G2
thats some pretty good stuff, so far it seems different in different countries.
maybe we got lucky

LG QuickWindow case. Was thrown in with the deal. But that is about it. I guess after I get my phone you can preorder a tonne of ROM's you want ported from the Xperia Z1, ZU, Note III, S4 I9505 A and whatever else.
my lg dock is in it looks pretty cool.
Sound is sweet and its got airplay. So my Apple lovin friends can rock too. Sweet. Thanks LG! It works better with my LG G2 though: )
Am wondering anyone else got some awesome stuff?
I also orded the speaker, But the speaker is i think only free in the netherlands. Or maby i am wrong?

[Q] Possible to fit G2 display to G2 D802?

Hi!
Does anybody know if it is possible to fix and fit G2 display and replace it to G2 D802 display?
My G2 D802 display broke down so I ordered and bought new one in US. Unfortunately and accidentally I ordered G2 display which had one joiner (that connects display to upper computer) too long to fit the gate of D802. In attachment photo shows that left side have D802 computer and new G2 display, right side is old broken D802 display.
Is somehow possible to connect G2 display to D802 and phone still working?
Regards,
Mikael from Finland

No way that will work. You need to contact the seller and get the proper display.

No, the screen model was for "normal" G2. When I ordered new screen I didn't actually know that my phone was d802.. Didn't know that there were different models at the same phone so I just ordered first display what the seller offers. So it's my mistake, irritates little bit..

I have contact the seller and they can send me new, proper display. BUT I should have to pay both shipments costs and also custom payment.. That + wrong display fee total amount would be almoust same than buy new one. Fortunately I have backup phone so maybe I just spare those shipment fees and buy some other phone in the near future.
Why don't you sell the wrong one on ebay?

Can anyone recommend a wood case (not a wood skin) for V35?

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has come across any V35 wood cases? I saw one on Amazon but it's unavailable and they have no indication of when it will be available.
Any help would be appreciated.

Don't hope much for v35 accessories as its only a niche bunch (including me) who own the device and most manufactures do not want to invest much on us since we are only a drop in this humongous smartphone sea.
PS: And do not go for v30 cases as the camera cutout will be a bit off for v35 since its on a lower area when compared with v30.
