Hi,
Wonder if anyone has tried the D838 model in the UK? I'm on the T-Mobile/EE network but not too bothered about 4G.
Thanks in anticipation.

Hi John,
I've had a D838 model in the UK for the past fortnight, imported from Hong Long. Haven't used the 4G because I'm on GiffGaff, which uses the O2 network, and the D838 can't get 4G on the bandwidth they have (I'm switching to Three very soon though, which should solve that "problem").
But mine works absolutely fine here, no problems whatsoever. Switched from a Note 2, which I'd had for almost two years - that was the best phone I'd ever had, but the G Pro 2 is substantially better - even the infra-red controller works perfectly (which, for some reason, I didn't expect)!
It's a fantastic phone!
Only downside at the moment is a lack of easy root for the phone, but no doubt that will come.
Any particular questions you had??

Thank you for the information. Very helpful
Hi
Thanks very much for your reply. That certainly helps.
Where did you get yours from and what did you pay for it?
I'm still in two minds as to whether to wait for the D837 European model as the frequency coverage might be better suited to the UK and any travel in Europe.
Also, just wondering if LG might up the spec on the D837.
Thanks, John.

Bought mine from eBay for £478 - couldn't wait for the D837, which (as far as I'm aware) still hasn't been confirmed for the UK...
Hi all..does this mean that the d838 will work fine in using 3g nd 4G on ee ? I'm also wanting to buy this phone...there is a eBay seller based in the UK that stock these..best price i can find is £395 with free delivery I'll will try nd share the link on here

I've used mine on Giffgaff (which piggybacks on the O2 network) but now switched to Three so I can use 4G (the D838 won't work with O2's 4G network, but does work with Three's).
Calls and data have all worked absolutely fine on both networks - not a single problem.
EE's 4G works on the 1800MHz band, which the D838 can use.
One small warning about buying at that price - be careful you don't get hit with customs charges. I bought mine at £478 because they guaranteed no customs charges (it was sent to a UK address, then sent to me from there), but I bought a previous phone nice and cheap from HK and had to pay about £60 to customs, which meant it was no cheaper!

I'm with Three and I didn't have to change anything. Used 4G for the first time last night - jeez, that's fast!!! :good:
In fact, thinking about it, I haven't had to change any settings, except to disable Taiwanese language in the keyboard.
How are you finding the D838 on EE?
Thinking hard about getting one and don't know whether to wait for the D837.
Not too worried about 4g at the moment as their H+ is fast enough for me currently
Cheers
I'm also in this situation too, thinking i should wait for the D837 variant just for the added 800MHz band (as EE will soon use that too), the D838 version is already well less than £400 from UK sellers on ebay.
What is LG delaying for i wonder? If Motorola release a decent phablet before the D837 comes out, I could be swayed to that model.
I've just bought a new one on eBay from a UK seller for £320. I'm on EE but don't have 4g in my area. I'll keep you guys posted after I receive it tomorrow.
I'm rather hoping that everything works as it should as it looks an awesome device. I'm coming from the G2. ?

I have my concerns but I'm really hoping that it works well in this country. The device looks awesome, I was going to look at the G3 but if this one doesn't have any localisation issues then I will be a very happy man. I had never even considered LG devices until I bought the G2 on a whim in January and have to say that I'm very pleasantly surprised with the quality (and value) that they provide.
All being well I'll be able to hold my head up high again next to my wife's Note 3.
The G Pro 2 works fine in the UK.
The only thing that doesn't work is QVoice, but seeing as no one cares about it then it doesn't matter one bit.
Still a bit puzzled why LG never released the D837 at all though.

Received my Taiwanese D838 yesterday put my EE sim card and 64gb micro sd in it then booted up. No issues at all, just like I'd bought a UK device. Set my languages to English UK of course. Wow, don't know what I was worried about what a great device and to cap it all, I plugged it into the LG PC Suite and updated from 10e to 10f without an issue. For anybody in the same boat as me, just get one, you won't regret it.
Great news. Tempting, tempting, tempting.
It has the option for recent apps button in the nav bar doesn't it? [

Hey members,
Good News for those waiting to get Update. G Pro just got first Update with KitKat as GPro2. Problem is We have to buy this update for around 600$ again.
:highfive: for one who will buy this update from LG.
Anyway News here:
LG spilled the beans on the announcement and the name of the successor of the LG Optimus G Pro. The upcoming phablet will go official in February (MWC in Barcelona is likely) as the LG G Pro 2.
Unsurprisingly, LG removed the ‘Optimus’ moniker from the name of the yet to be seen handset. Like the latest batch of high-end smartphones from the Korean manufacturer, the device will launch as simply a member of the 'G' lineup.
In case revealing only the name of an upcoming device appears to be an odd move by LG, we must point that this isn’t the first time the company pulls such a trick. Last year, the manufactuer revealed the name of its current flagship, the LG G2 in a similar fashion.
Source: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g_pro_2_announcement_and_name_get_confirmed-news-7666.php
New Images of leaked pics:
We have great devs! someone will figure out how to port this over to our phone after they look over all the specs and such
Great news, however LG has a history of not supporting their phones for very long, however if it has Dev support and is what the G2 was to the S4 then I might have to get it regardless
Damn you beat me to it @NaveenKumarXDA I just read about this over at Engadget. Seems like they "promise" to release it next month but what I want to know is how the future of that phone will look on Us carriers hopefully it isn't single carrier variant.

I have the Korean version in the UK and it works fine.
You can delete all the Korean apps that come pre installed so that's good.
There are a few tweaks I made myself to make the phone better such as removing the Korean roaming clock from the lockscreen etc... just to make the phone a bit more English friendly. You do need root for that which is easy enough to do.
The phone will work on EE and Three's 4G networks only. It won't work on O2 or Vodafone 4G but will work on every network 3G and 2G fine.

The Korean Version has the model number F350.
The Asian version (Hong Kong) has the model number D838 and was released after the Korean version.
Unfortunately the D838 only supports 1800Mhz and 2600Mhz and not the 800Mhz that O2 use for 4G. So the phone will work fine on 3G and 2G but it will not work on 4G at all.
You'll probably want to wait for the European model to launch if you want to use O2. Otherwise only EE and Three will work with both the D838 and F350 on 4G in the UK.
And yes, the Korean version (F350) is the one with the aerial. The Asian version does not have an aerial and is the same look as the European/American variants will be.

The reason I am asking because I tried it U.S and even the the 3.5g/H didn't work, I don't want to end up with nonfunctional Sim.

Yup, my previous post had a speed test result but I only got the app supporting up to 50mb, I am on PAYG plan so you can check if there's another app that can do CAT6 speed(s).

Is that because you have one in hand or just from the motorola.mx website? I chatted with the motorola latin america support and they said at the moment only the single sim version is available. If you go through motomaker it makes no mention of dual sim, nor in the any of the description content. You only see dual nanoSIM in the specs.

The experience with T-Mobile was really good, this phone has AWS band for T-Mobile 3G and all the bands in LTE for T-Mobile and AT&T, and even some Chinese LTE bands, and I guess this phone is really good for a backup phone, I still love my Nexus 6, but this phone holds his ground pretty good.

I've read that the UK version will get 6GB ram bump up from 4GB and 128GB storage over 64GB elsewhere so if you see one look out for a 6GB version.
Only 6GB ram version is sold in HK
Do you know if the radios will be any different?
I am also interested in this, particularly if a HK handset will covered by HTC UK warranty?

Thank you, I appreciate your offer mate. I'm interested in purchasing a HK version, though am wondering
1) Can I change all settings to English
2) Are the radios for the HK version compatible with Vodafone 3G and 4G networks here in Australia

Yes, it can fully display English as UI and I think there is problem to work with your network in AU.

The U11+ selling in Hong Kong are eligible for local warranty only, so think before you buy.
Thanks for responses I have picked one up in HK. Radios should be all good. Warranty is local but I knew that before purchasing.
Love the phone so far. Some great battery life after day 1.
How to buy U11+ in Hong Kong?
Please send me the answer. Thanks.
I really need U11+ in my life!

Apparently the international version of U11+ is sold in Hong Kong and Taiwan..
The Mainland version is slightly different..

If anyone is selling a LMV500EM for the European market. I would be very interested in buying it.
Cheers
So the issue with this is the only carrier that is selling it in Europe, EE, has some strict unlocking rules. You have to buy it with a contract and then wait at least 6 months before you pay the extra 10 bucks to get an unlock code. Then you've got the rest of your contract. Unfortunately the European version of this phone won't be available for use in the US untill another carrier starts carrying the phone. I really hope someone can crack the bootloader on the Korean version, but it doesn't look like many developers are picking up this phone.
I got my V50 last Wednesday. Seller didn't say it was locked to EE but paid for an unlocking service on eBay specifically for LG V50. If it doesn't unlock I'll be asking questions.

Pleased to say this worked. I had to wait 10 working days, but better than any other solution. Im guessing they requested the unlock as opposed to using some machine.

Do you have vowifi and VoLTE?
What security patch?
Call recording is working?
Any bloatware?

No bloatware apart from Google stuff. Not seen any VoLTR or vowifi.

I got it from Ebay Uak. The seller was Cash Converters. I think Wonda Mobile is a better option atm. Until 5G is rolled out in more places in the UK, EE won't sell it. Its not in the local stores where I live.
Well unfortunately Wonda is selling the Korean version which can not be officially unlocked. As for Cash Converters looks like they're a pawn shop so maybe if I check their website everyday I'll get lucky. Thanks man!

Hi
Could I ask a quick favour?
Could you check the service menu 5457#*500# and see what frequencies the UK version uses under the Multi Band selection menu.
Does it show a B78 or N78 frequency?
My Korean KT version only goes to LTE B41.
I'm starting to think the hardware of the Korean version might not be capable of using UK 5G frequencies...

Didn't work came back with an error code
Hi
Thanks for trying.
The chances are the 500 bit of the code is specific to your model of phone.
I know using 400 worked on my OH's V40.
But LG have some erratic numbering systems!
If it's a dual screen model the code might be 510 for example.
PITA and I've been using LG for years now!!!
Cheers and thanks!:good:
Hello all I just brought the LM-V500EM and the latest security update is May 2019.
Is this normal? I feel like something's not right as there are no updates at all.
