So I have the Korean LG G6 because I wanted the 64gb storage and the quad DAC. Everything is working great except when I go into settings and then to "theme". There are about 5 themes that come pre-loaded but you can download more by clicking on the down arrow in the upper right corner of the screen. This opens up "LG Smart World", which looks like some kind of LG App store that contains free themes and wallpapers, etc. However, everything is in Korean and if I try to download anything like a free theme or wallpaper, it tells me that "you are signed in to an account from a country where LG SmartWorld is not supported".
Does anyone have a workaround?
Thanks!

Are you on a US Carrier? And if so which one? I'm thinking about giving my [AT&T] G6 to the wife and getting the Korean one for myself.

Yeah, I'm on AT&T.
I have the Korean model on Cricket (ATT) and I downloaded themes straight from the Google play store and they appear on available themes http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/58f6192dceb50/Screenshot_2017-04-18-06-47-28.png?

You cant download themes from smartworld because it will ask you to sign in or register and then it will tell you that smartworld is only available in south korea and not to other countries. As stated above, the best way to download themes is directly from play stoee, marck has some amazing themes and they are posted in the "themes" sub-forum

Hello everybody, first post here but been a lurker here for the past few weeks with my new s3.
Ever since I moved overseas from the US their has been many limitations of the web, the play store in my country, i dont mean to be mean, is complete $%#@, most of the s3 owners are perverts, the most downloaded app is something about Naked Ladies. Anyway, I have a rooted phone and I really don't want to use any kind of VPN, their slow, unreilable, and make me put on a passcode which I don't want.
If their is any tweak or hack to get the US playstore that would be wonderful to share, plus I have a US credit card and make sure my phone doesn't use my location services.
Thanks for reading (=

Play store should use localization from the firmware, me thinks. Also, checks build.prop.
If you got a international SGS3 one easy solution would be to flash a European (UK could be best for you) firmware and CSC, then setting localisation to UK. Or, you can flash a AOSP firmware which should be location "free" (except for localisation in settings for UI/Keyboard etc). The AOSP/AOKP builds around are still not 100% perfect though, if you care about such things.
Google for market enabler...
it might give you the apps available in the US but not the services like books, music, movies...

If you can, may please post a link of one?
And what if you already have a custom rom?
I used Market enabler but used a VPN to get free scrabble from US play store but uninstalled them after that, but can still see scrabble in account

Market enabler is the way to go. The play store region is determined by a combination of carrier & country code from your SIM + geo-IP.

Here ya go... enjoy. BTW what country are you in?

I'm in China and I have the same problem. Market enabler allows you to SEE the apps from another country but you still can't buy them. So it's a little bit anoying. If you go on Google play from a computer you can see all the apps.
I've bought apps fine with the market enabler.
Hey guys, I was looking through the forum and apparently no one hates the Bloat that ATT puts on this phone, or any phone for that matter. I can´t seem to find any thread regarding this issue.
Is there a ROM out there that is BONE STOCK (but rooted), the way LG meant the G2 to be? I´ve found some roms for the ATT that are based on the International G2, however those are heavily themed and packed of other applications i don´t particularly need.
Hi,
Take a look here: http://www.andromods.com/apps-mod/h...ve-bloatware-list-of-apps-safe-to-delete.html (there is a light AT&T list) and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2456974.
Some apps are the same for the different versions.

The news has it that Sense 6 is being rolled out to all Canadian carriers users, it would be nice to for those who received to share which carrier they are on, and provide screenshots if possible of the phone running official Sense 6
just want to know, did the camera have Manual control like the M8?
I read from different sources, that update is for unlocked version, but does not know if CDMA or GSM...
As promised earlier this year, HTC is in the process rolling out the first batch of its eagerly-awaited Sense 6.0 over-the-air (OTA) update to all unlocked models of its former flagship smartphone, the One (M7), currently located in Canada.

So I just yesterday got my Axon 7, which I got shipped from China as it was cheaper. Little did I know that there were different versions of the phone and the one I received was the A2017, which I have been told is the Chinese model.
This is my first actual Android phone so I have fairly limited experience, apart from playing around with my mates Nexus 6P (which I found very easy and intuitive to use), so I have a few questions/issues.
My problem is that the software the Axon came with is fairly different to the "Paired down version of Android Marshmallow ... to be as close as stock android as possible." shown in most review vids, even ones with the 6GB Ram Chinese model - eg. youtube.com/watch?v=xNOql_uuOAM
Here are some screenshots of my phone - imgur.com/a/6pOlh
The main problems I have noticed are:
The lack of app tray.
No google service apps.
A bunch of random, for the most part Chinese (even when system language is English), apps that I can't uninstall or even remove off of the home screen.
Different, non stock android icons for all apps.
I mean it isn't the end of the world, but I would love to get the normal android experience on this phone is basically what I am saying.
Sorry if this is a dumb question/easy fix, as I said this is my first time owning any android phone.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Use nova launcher. And mi assistant to uninstall/disable apps. You can install Google from zte market and if you want to have ota updates then there are threads which will tell you how

Just download Google Play Services and Google Play from APKMirror and install them manually, it worked for me.
Thanks for replying. Yeah, that's what I ended up doing eventually. Downloaded some additional apks such as Google framework, account manager and couple others.
maybe you should flash A2017U/A2017G ROM

Want to get official ota updates, if any in this stage of axons lifecycle. Would have flashed LineageOS but sound quality and loudspeaker bug holding me back. Until those get fixed, hopefully, sticking to stock Chinese rom for time being.

It's a little bit uncomfortable for me. But not a big problem.
Unfortunately, I don't think Korean versions of LG phones got bootloader unlocked (recently we don't have any unlocking bootloader tool for Korean ones). So maybe, we have to live with those things.

It's the same story with different variants of the V20. Sucks big time but I knew the situation before getting mine. Even if I dont have root I think this will still be a keeper.
I'm well pleased with the phone and and there's no carrier bloat at all. There's several native LG apps but they're mostly useful so I've no complaints.
The dual clock thing is a PITA. But not a deal breaker for me. There is an app on the play store, dual clock removal which works without root, but its not been updated for the G6.
The Dual Zone clock can be removed by using an app called QuickShortcutMaker on the Play Store. After installing the app, scroll to find the "roaming" app and under it there should be an item called dual zone clock (or something similar). Click on and it and press launch. There would be any option where you could disable the dual clocks after you have launched it.
Anyway to add or change system language?
Hello, i also have this model, is there anyway to add system language from europe model? I am missing the danish language.
