Hello!
I found this V35 bidding on ebay which according to the seller's title it is AT&T unlocked.
Before i buy it,i want to know if i can use it in Europe..will it work for 2g,3g and 4g networks?
Do i have to flash another rom for it to work on my network?
Thanks in advance!
I bought an AT&T branded phone on ebay. It was advertised as unlocked. It wasn't and did not work with a non AT&T sim card. If you end up in that situation, it is easy to buy a sim unlock code from a service like codes2unlock.com. The phone works great seemingly everywhere! It can be rooted too if you're into that.

Oh thank you very much for this info.
Basically i don't really have it with rooting,but i was thinking of just flashing a new stock rom that could remove all AT&T bloatware.
I've read somewhere that this is possible to do via a ULM version kdz rom.

Korean V35 user here. I'm also from Europe and the phone works just fine in my country. Though, Korean software is annoying because it thinks it's constantly in roaming and is very conservative when switching networks, but I know the hardware is good because a rescan always finds me a 4G network. Anyways, I'm sure that flashing ULM rom will fix that, I just don't have the time needed to mess around with that atm.
Enjoy your new phone

It is so nice to hear that you can use it in Europe.
It's a really wonderful and hardware strong device,and on the other hand so beautiful without all these ugly notches.
It is a real shame of LG that left European market out..they always find a way to shoot theirselves on feet.
And hey..i don't own it yet,i just watched it on a bid,but thanks anyway for the wish)).
And for sure i will keep looking for it until i find one i like and can afford the cost of course,because extra cost for tax and import charges is about 70 euros more than original price.
Thank you for the infos anyway!

Hey all,
Im interested in getting an LG Expo, unlocking it and using it on Tmobile. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Have you gotten data connections to work (ie tzones)? Id rather not be a pioneer
there both gsm, and if its unlocked, then it will work. will not get 3g though
Lg Expo GW820
I just got the expo and am trying to do the same. The problem happening right now is getting the unlock codes from at&t. They're claiming they don't have the codes yet from the manufacturer. Once you get the subsidy codes you should be up and running. I will post the codes as soon as I receive them from at&t.
Lg Expo
I do have the lg expo and unlocked too u can pm me if u like
i'm not sure but i don't believe the eXpo has compatible 3g bands for tmob.. correct me if i'm wrong tho
so even it is unlocked you won't enjoy full 3G speeds

you are correct. but tmobile is cheaper that att.
also if you need an unlock code probably ebay is the best place. just search for lg expo unlock code.
cheaper mayb.. but def not as reliable coverage. or as fast without 3g.. i guess it all boils down to what your needs are

aren't unlock codes generated from IMEI? i.e. the unlock code that works for your eXpo will not work for mine.

MUCH cheaper. I pay $5 a month for unlimited (but slow) internet. Enough to do light browsing, check email, and get RSS feeds
Good to see that it is working on Tmobile tho, Ill have to get one now
Just got the phone unlocked. Tzones+Edge and service works perfectly!
I am started to get a little jealous of T-mobile
http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/16/t-mobile-launching-21mbps-webconnect-rocket-htc-hd2-next-month/
My brother owns one and he has had for a month or two now on the tmobile network and it works great. I highly recommend it if you have not already purchased one.
This is the best prepaid phone I ever have in my life. Brought the phone after cash back and all = less than $118 on ebay, phone was a Demo used for a week, so it was basically brand new with everything still in the box. Add the T-mobile prepaid sim card with 157 minute and gold memberships, cost buying it from my brother, $5 and a bag of Doritos. So my new prepaid phone comes out to be less than $125 and it is going to cost me $10 for 35 extra minutes and 1 whole year of service. So my phone service is going to cost me $0.83 cent a month for emergency uses while I can used wifi for internet connection since my campus has free wifi.
And a shout out to wahida76, thank you very much, I owed you one.

They can but you may not have had it long enough or something like that. I have my expo unlocked with sim unlock code that I got from att. All I had to do was call them up and say I needed the unlock for "a trip to europe" to use a local sim

Hey Everyone,
So I live in Germany but I will be visiting the USA for Thanksgiving weekend. I am contemplating buying the Tab for $550 at Best Buy on black Friday. So if I find it worth it, should I get the Sprint or T-Mobile one? Or can I even use either of them unlocked so I can use 3G with my German Fonic SIM card (I think it uses the O2 networks)?
Thanks
T-Mobile US and AT&T are your only options. You will have to SIM unlock them.
Sprint and Verizon use their own wireless transmission protocol that is, with a few exceptions, incompatible with the rest of the world. In particular, no SIM card
The biggest issue you will find is the lack of phone functionality on the US models.
You should however be able to flash a Euro firmware, and it's quite likely that you get both phone and 3G data on a European network. I couldn't definitively state that this is the case though!
Caveat Emptor!
Regards,
Dave
OK, so you think I would be able to get T-Mobile version, and it should work with the 3G connections in Europe? And if so, can I easily unlock it and put in my SIM card as I have done with other American smartphones I use here?
Thanks
I think you're better of getting the AT&T Tab since it will have the UMTS 850, 1900, 2100 bands, EU uses the 2100, you will have to flash the eu rom on it though... Wait, the TMO Tab also has 2100... IDK someone will have to chime in...
Here's a comparison of the US models and the international Tab:

You might double check.... cus based on my local store and the best buy website... they are only selling Verizon and Sprint tabs... I don't think the will be selling Tmos, according to a Best Buys rep.
But of course Tmo should have them in stock...
If the standard Euro Tab is available in your airport departure lounge, you should be able to pick one up on your outward bound journey VAT free. It might still be more expensive than a US one, but not by much (assuming they are priced similarly to the UK) and would probably be a better bet all round.

Dave

Hello guys, it is my first post here! I tried searching for my specific question but I did only find hints, not a true answer.
I'm about to change my phone soon, I come from iOS world so please don't be too hard on me if what I ask is stupid or evident for you (as it would not necessarily be the case for me ).
I am right now looking at a Sprint 32GB version of a LG G2, it does have a bad ESN with Sprint. Obviously it is not high priced since ESN is bad. I understand a little that ESN is linked to WMCA networking, which is specific to each carrier. It is the same as connecting to data with Sprint or Verizon or AT&T, or in my area, SFR, Orange, Bouygues, Vodafone... Am I right?!
From what I've read, it would be best for me to search for a regular phone instead if I was in USA. But I live in Europe, so I don't care about not being able to connect to Sprint network.
If I flash/root this phone with an EU stock ROM or International ROM (or even a custom ROM, since a lot are available here), will I be able to connect to my local carriers' networks?
Regarding your advices I will or will not buy this phone.
Sorry if my english is bad, & Thanks in advance! :good:

If you're saying that you're gonna buy the Sprint version because it's good in price and you live in Europe. Just check the bands which the Sprint version supports and the bands which your network provider in Europe provides. If they are compatible then no worries. Just make sure that you only flash ROMs etc which are made for the Sprint variant. I think you would also need to unlock the device which I'm not sure about.
Still, the best thing to do us to buy the international variant(D802) which is not locked if you also can't figure out how to unlock.

Same question.
Im im from India and we dont have LTE here only 3D and CDMA which is horribad and used only on cheap phones.
So basically my question is if i buy a sprint LG G2 off ebay with a Bad ESN , Can i root flash CM or AOKP something and use the phone with a regular GSM sim from my country ?
PS: all the bands are supported since its a world phone.
Thanks in advance.

Sprint does not support 2100 frequency. 3g hspa HSDPA so on use the above mentioned frequency. According to my knowledge India uses 2100 frequency band. So unfortunately you'll not be able to use 3g in India with the sprints version.
Try for at&t version

Actually bro everything is fine with the setting I guess, as I have tried a different sim as well, whenever i enable data it does not show "E" on the notification bar as it Use to show before I could only see GSM inside a small circle when ever i activate net there is no "E" at all. All the problems started when I updated the cell via OTA update initially when I got the cell it was ZV7, now after the update its ZVA and not able to Use net since then. Please find the attached screen shot about the GSM showing up when i enable data.
it will not show E on stock rom unless u make some changes,
thats how Sprint rom reports network.
Other roms ull see E and H.

Flash the LG G3 Rom or AOSP rom and check once.
I posted this in the general section, but then I found this specific V20 area and hopefully you guys will be far more knowledgeable than I am.
I'm on an EE contract in England. the LG V20 is the phone I want to buy but it's not released here in the UK (ebay seems the only option and the closest).
It's got Nougat but it will eventually have updates. the LG V20 does not seem to be scheduled for release in the UK. How, if possible, can I update the phone's Android since my network does not stock that phone?
And it will work on 4G in the UK too?
Thank you for the help, I'm a novice Android user.
Cause you can update as and when available by the manufacturer if it's unlocked.

I just took the plunge and bought on eBay should be delivered next few days. I went for H990DS version which is apparently compatible with all 4g networks in the uk.
I would venture you can update manually with whatever lg uses to flash stock firmware or it will find an update over wifi.

I have an F800 Korean version using it on Vodafone. All 4G bands are supported. The only one missing is the 900MHz HSDPA band. Video calling works just fine. The downside is that you get the operator bloatware and is not easy to get rid of it.
P.S. Check the 4G(LTE) bands of your operator before buying. For example the Korean version you won't get 4G on O2.

I ordered mine too, so hopefully get it around the 7th/8th. I got the Taiwan version because of more 4G support in U.K. It will be used on EE and 3. In the past I have achieved speeds of 100mb with the Note, so would like to see how this would do as well. Such a shame we have to import... lg should be taking advantage of Samsung's catastrophic failure with the note 7. Oh by the way does anyone know if they share sim and sd card or the sd has its own dedicated slot?

Hi all. Bit late to this chat but I've just bought an LG V20 online and am a little worried as LG themselves are telling me that I won't be able to connect to the 4G network at all as the frequencies are different. However the frequencies available on the specifications of the phone DO match the frequencies used by EE for 4G in the UK; are the LG operatives confused? Do your V20s work okay on the UK's 4G ? Thanks in advance
I'm also in the UK and I've had my H990ds Taiwan variant for 4 days.
I'm on Tesco Mobile (which uses o2) and 4G LTE is working just fine.
Hey everyone, I could really use some help. (Sorry if this is in the wrong place)
I'm in the USA, on Verizon. I got a note FE the other day (SM-N935L) and went to put in the sim card but it keeps telling me the mobile networks are currently blocked and to contact customer service but I can't do that because I can't currently make calls or have data. Any help would be appreciated. If you need more info to possibly help, just let me know.
Thank you

Probably not,AT&T & T-Mobile are your best bets for using international phones on their networks & associated MVNOs.
Not trying to sound like a jerk,but,Google is your friend on the subject.
Here's a fairly recent write up giving a Readers Digest summary:

Also,try these sites for specific device compatibility:

Yeah as stated above google helps you out tons when you are in the market for a new device. I never looked for international devices or non-carrier branded phones while I was with Verizon and Sprint they are CDMA and most unlocked devices are GSM. For me I just knew for most functions to work on my phone they had to have the sprint or verizon logo on them some where.
I have not looked back since I left both of the above companies because I feel I have so many more options now. There are others who have made the same mistake and I have seen their listings on ebay. There are lots of people looking for this device so at least you can get your money back by selling it if you need to. (swappa is a good option for selling as well)
Thank you for all the info! I thought it was CDMA compatible but I guess I was wrong.. :/ I need to check more before buying! Live and learn I guess... I'll probably end up reselling it.
Thank you for all the help!
