Hi, I really love the Lg G Flex 2 and I'm looking to see whether to but it or not. I'm reading many reviews saying that is overheats and this is sadly discouraging me even though I really wish to buy it. Has the overheating issue been resolved since its been months if not a year since release ?

Hi
I have had my Flex 2 for just over a month now and I can truthfully say that I have not noticed any overheating. The phone gets slightly warm when charging but that is normal. I am running fully stock H95515D LP 5.1.1

Thank you for replying so fast, I'll be buying my phone from Expansys and the reviews on that site don't mention overheating. In so worried because I had the same problem last year with the Nvidia Shield and 3 days after I had bought it the recall project was underway
if you want a good performing cheap phone, go for it
if you want a perfect screen, leave this one alone, heavy banding and mura on the screens, had 5 of them and even lg gave up, they said it was normal ...
if you don't mind that or are blind as a bat ...

Thanks for your input, I'll probably be buying it because yes as you said I do want a well performing budget phone since I suppose it fits my budget, I'll keep and eye out for the heavy banding and mura on my screen , let's hope it doesn't have!
Mine gets hot. After like 15 minutes of Asphalt 8, the phone begins throtteling.
But that's not a problem for me^^ Great phone anyways!

What LTE bands does your carrier use? as I said, its sim unlocked. If this model supports the same bands youd be good to go.
Hi fellow g flex 2 user. I just recently bought my g flex 2 dec last year and so far the phone has been great in everyday task/use. I did try to push the phone to its limits through gaming and noticed that nfs no limits (ironically), the game does lag a bit. I also noticed that the phone is warm to the touch after running this game for a while, not that it is going to scald you or anything though. I compared this with other phones running the same game on youtube and theirs are running smoothly. It might be due to throttling or the game lacking some updates. Other than that, the phone is solid overall. all games are running great, try godfire for example or real racing 3. also ppsspp games run great, playing metal gear solid peace walker. LTE download speeds are amazing and battery life is better compared to my old xperia z ultra. hope this helps btw I have the g flex 2 32gb lg-f510l (korea) with 2gb of ram i think. stock 5.1.1 not rooted.
Thank you all for your responses, I have gone ahead and bought the game. Gaming isn't really a factor for me when it comes to phones since I mostly like to play hearthstone, other than that I just use 4G to browse the web
I have an h950 with 3gb of ram, running h955 firmware with modem of h950pr... I have no problems of overheating in downclocking but my screen brigtness are limited to 90% when phone is hot.... Mostly when is charging and gaming at the same time....

Oh okay great thanks, I'll be getting the 2 gb version. Thank you everyone for your responses so far, my phone is on it's way it's currently in Germany being processed and it should soon head to Malta

I'm wondering the same. My phone will be delivered shortly. But it seems that this will be my first Android phone without CyanogenMod. I can't believe this.I have already asked Ricardo with a pm but no reaction yet. May be somebody knows him better and could ask him to make a recovery and start a CM project for our sweet device? The hardware does not much differ from the G2 isn't it?
The problem is that LG decided to implement a stupidly secure boot loader, without an unlockable boot loader, not much development can happen. Being the flashing addict I am, I'm gonna sell mine and but an Xperia Z Ultra

I don't understand that business decision. Why would you not sell in one of the biggest cell phone markets?
Not releasing it in America is mostly the problem, without American developers getting their hands on it, no development can really happen. Not a smart move by LG is my opinion.
I have got my hands on one now.. and hopefully not very soon , but soon will be releasing something...
I sold my 16gb D838 a month ago as I just couldn't resist the temptation of the G3. Yesterday, I put my G3 on ebay and have ordered a 32gb D838 :laugh: For anybody lusting after the G3, don't do it. The screen is beautiful (if you can find 4k content ) but, other than that, the G Pro 2 is a far better device IMO. The G3 is a lagfest with frequent launcher redraws due to bad ram management, (at least it was on my 2g ram version) it appears to have been rushed out with no software optimisation. The 801 chip cannot handle the resolution.
Anyway, can't wait for my new baby to arrive, I consider it to be the best device I have ever had and that is many.
OK Here we go

That is so true. I couldn't resist to try the G3 too. But I really regret this choice. the D838 is so smooth and fast in everything. Even the camera is very fast and makes really nice pictures. The camera of the G3 is for my idea not any better and the phone itself is lagging everywhere. I have the 32GB version and the extra RAM doesn't make a difference. Like you said the CPU or the GPU isn't enough to make this device to what it had should been. I'm now on vacation but when I'm back home I will immediately sell the G3 and keep my Pro 2.

I've had my LG G Pro 2 32GB for a couple of months now, it's the best phone I've had since my Sony Xperia Z Ultra 16GB. But now it's time to move on to another device so put it up for sale on Ebay at a bargain price. It's a shame LG messed up the D83810F update, looking forward to G Pro 3 if LG bother with it. I will say that I won't be rushing out to by the G3.
I hope a custom recovery will release for this phone soon, after that many Rom will appear!
cannot agree more , I am on the same camp got G3 , sold and took the G pro 2 hahha
How many people have this device already?
Vodafone UK are doing a deal atm where you get a free smart watch.
Thinking of getting one of these and ditching my LG G3 D855

just got home with mine a bit ago, and all the sprint stuff is already frozen in titanium. (along with uber, ebay, nascar, basketball etc) maybe its because I use ADB a lot more often these days, but I swear it was easier/faster/more documented than when I first did it to my galaxy s3

I have 32gb sprint g flex 2 in red . coming from the nexus 6 this is a much better option and for the price nothing compares. Nexus 6 has way too many issues for me i wanna gonna go note4 but with a new processor and slightly smaller screen this seemed better and i didn't even know it released yesterday .
Hopefully this phone has similar framework to the lg g3 which should hopefully mean development could be easy for it. Just porting stuff from the g3 over to this. Can't see this being a hugely popular phone for developers like the original g flex

I don't think any of the new phones do that with Sprint. It has something to do with sprint spark. Good luck finding one that does
Got mine today on O2 in the uk... Come from carphone warehouse and i got a circle case and lg bluetooth speaker with it for free.
Much better screen quality than original g flex and im loving the smaller size of this one.

Now the fun begins
Just announced at CES 2015 that the G Flex 2 is confirmed to be getting Android 6.0 AKA Marshmallow! Here is a link:
http://www.slashgear.com/android-marshmallow-update-coming-to-lg-g4-g3-not-g2-27399720/
So the phone is definitely not dead, surprised that the G3 might not get the update, for those who was debating between these two phones.
Well, low popularity doesn't mean dead. It's barely half a year old anyway. Great news indeed though.
Sent from my LG-D802
Well these are great news !
I just got the H959 TWN version. I think I love it more than my G4 H815 except the Camera.
Flex 2 is so much more snappier than G4 and surprising not as hot the G4. The Curve and the RED back cover is nice. I don't really miss the leather back. Now I have 2 devices to play with. Best of the Best LG .......Life's Good!
Ya, I made a post a few days ago about it getting gooey goodness. This phone is a beast. I love it.
Of course this phone is going to get it. It's still new and just came out this year if there was folks thinking the opposite then idk what to say. Now the big question is when do you think this device is planning on getting 6.0? That's the big question, so far I've been running Android M on my nexus 6 for some time and it is great very nice update and I'm guessing it will roll out and be official around October or somewhere around there so I'm curious to know how long from there will it take the flex 2bto get it.
Good news will be when I find this fcking phone on ebay <270$ :'(
Anyway its good, but lock bootloader deprives custom ROMs.
Indeed good news! Some of us that called the phone "dead " we meant the lack of custom roms and in general the lg,s decision of not unlocking bootloader.
Even with m it will be also dead from developers perspective.

As I know on LG G4 international you can unlock bootloader, but not for the other versions.
So now I'm with G2 and it doesn't get android 6. I hope I will find G Flex 2 for the good price.

I can not get 6.0 if they will unlock bootloader in 5.1.1. There is lot of bad things on stock rom. Small difference between max and min display light, alarm volume and lot of more mistakes!
Hope this is true. Maybe by then we will have an unlocked bootloader figured out

The high minimum brightness is there for reason. Lower brightness = more grainy display.
I doubt LG will fix that in some update. You can use app called Darker - works great but picture gets more grainy..
Grainy display and no manual camera are my main issues with this phone.
OK, if you had the opportunity to acquire ONE of these with an unlimited plan, which would you take?
Remember.. OBJECTIVE OPINIONS...thanks!
Flex:
- Design: Personally prefer the feel of the curve, makes one hand usage better (also helpful with drops)
- Perf: 810+LDDR4 is impressive, apps launch pretty quickly like the T-K1.
- Battery: While not as good as my Moto E or G2 it's sometimes 2x of how my Zenfone 2 performed. I posted a few screen shots, was getting about 5hrs+ SOT with LTE/HSPA (haven't really bothered with WiFi)
- Expansion: SD cards are a must, I use them frequently
- Cam: Don't care about this but the sensor is the same as G3's
N6:
- Screen: Larger, hard to argue against this.
- Development: Pretty envious of this aspect. I'm rather curious about the 6P though.
- T-Mobile WiFi calling + VoLTE (with T-Mobile ROM I think)
- Fast updates: Again, something that can't be argued. I also prefer vanilla because bloat is meh.
If I had a time machine I would honestly wait for the 6P or the 6 to drop to $200-250 range.
can only say from my preference, but i love the 810 chip on the flex 2.. it's very good now with manufacturer default on 5.1.1, and even better with a tweak here and there via root
nexus 6 has more development though here on xda, flex 2 is still pretty locked up comparatively
I'd probably choose the Nexus 6. The Flex 2 is a killer device and wicked fast. My only complaint is the display is too bright at night and you can't see it very well outside on sunny days unless you find shadow. Even if the Nexus 6 had the same issues, I'd still choose it of the Flex 2 to have a Project Fi compatible phone.
If money isn't an issue, the nexus 6 may be the better choice. In my country i can find a flex 2 for half the price of the Nexus 6. So, my choice was clear.

For me, it wasn't so much a money issue as a storage issue. No microSD is not an option for my main device.

Also, keep in mind that flex 2 is a one handed device and the nexus 6 is a two handed device
What about Flex2 being futureproof? This device probably gonna receive android M, and few fixes, but due to LBL its gonna be stuck with whatever LG makes. No custom ROMs, no custom kernels. I'm currently thinking about purchasing this device, but idea about LBL keeps me away.
I live in Switzerland. In my country I could buy a flex 2 for about 250$. A Nexus 6 would cost me here 480$. Therefore my choice was the Flex 2.
In the last days the prices in Europe droped generally. Here a good offer: http://www.ebay.de/itm/LG-G-Flex-2-H955-Platinum-Silver-/351557561976?clk_rvr_id=918905263557&rmvSB=true. It must be the European model H955 with 2GB ram and 16GB storage. But at least it's a free model and you get the updates quickly.

I have the Flex 2 H955 since yesterday, i bought it for 315 euro and i don't regret, i love this phone. Mine came with 5.1.1 out of the box, and did only 1 update (latest 5.1.1) and it doesn't overheat to much, first antutu run gave me 57k run it for 40 min and the score never went bellow 50k... btw the nexus 6 is 450 euro in my country

Hello. Just here to share my review of the LG G Flex 2. You all care read it Mod Edit.
So for those who are still on the fence on whether to buy a G Flex 2 (I know it's available on eBay for the cheap), hope that this helps. :angel:
Nice review, thanks Idiocity
There are some stupid low prices for the G Flex 2 in the UK today. (As low as £176.) The only thing that's stopping me pulling the trigger is the 2GB Ram. How many chrome tabs are you able to have open, (on large pages,) without the tabs having to refresh?
Totally agree on what you say regarding the camera in low light. My G2 makes a better job. :crying:

Never really tested it. However the RAM can be quite a constrain sometimes. But then again this phone is a steal for its specifications, so can't complain to be honest. :angel:

I only ask about the RAM issue as I also have the choice of getting the H950 for roughly the same money. The downside of that being that I only visit the US twice a year so getting the updates is tricky.
If only they had put 3GB Ram in the 32GB version this end. :crying:

Honestly the 3GB is a pity. If you are a heavy multi-tasker this phone is not really suitable to be honest. :silly:

Thanks for the info. :highfive:
H950 it will be.
i had the 950 with 15aPR rom on it and it was a lot faster and more responsive than the 955 i have now .
the only thing is that the 955 with 15c software does not heat up and the battery life is much better .
i did not even have to put in a copper shim this time .
