Do a phone reset that should fix it

The MM update also left me with terrible battery drain, quick backup via LG Bridge then a factory reset and restore sorted it out and battery life is now much improved over Lollipop

Really hoping this comes on offer again when the G5 is released in the UK. I missed the Vodafone offer, looking for a replacement for my Nexus 4.

Very tempted to root my G4 and put a custom ROM on it, getting fed up of waiting for Three to update their firmware to MM.

Me too buddy, me too.

TiT will apparently allow 800MHz support without being on the Three ROM BTW.

I recommend using this ROM. It's what I've been using for ages now.

How does the camera fair on this compared to the Nexus 5x chaps?

This seems to pip it most of the time

I've got to say Ive been pretty amazed at how well the G4 takes photos. Its really apparent how good it is in low light and even the details it picks up.
I dont know how much has been improved after the updates, but my unbranded G4 is running MM V20d

Edit: Would I be right in saying that to keep the best camera performance/ability you need to use the official/signed software? And any custom rom wont give as good an image/photo?

Yep that's right. Pictures are still decent though.

Sorry for sounding a bit thick, but what is 'TiT'?

I've got the stock Android 6.0 european rom on my phone, can the VoLTE bands be enabled on it?

Where the best place to get an unlock code from?

"TiT" is Three inTouch.

VoLTE on Three will only currently work on devices running Three's firmware.

Been using a G4 the past week now and I'm blown away by it. The battery life is superb, the screen brilliant and the size just perfect. I also love the leather back as it means I dont feel the need for a case.

Not that keen on the look of LGs stock however but Nova + a decent theme fixed that within 2 minutes

iMacMart · 15 Mar 2016 at 21:26

Popped to voda Watford yesterday but only have red leather and none in stock

Might ring around, black leather rear is £15 off the river so will see if I can find one

I have some bizarre wifi issue that is driving me insane. On 2/3 wifi networks of places I visit the connection constantly times out and takes an age to do anything, also in these places I can only get Edge connection so its driving me mad.

It only seems to do it at these locations, 2 of which have the exact same router and isp as me.

Ive tried a few fixes and nothing so far, was the same on 5.1.1 and 6.0

SAM81 · 17 Mar 2016 at 08:31

Going to sell my g4, it's a little too big for me. What price are these going for used?

Depends on age and condition really.

I am having the same issue. The WiFi just randomly drops. Very annoying.

May try and return it. Have taking the wireless charging case off to test its not that!

Bought one of these the other day from my local Vodafone shop which my brother will try out as a replacement for his Xperia Z3.

To be fair I know some of the people in my shop but they had no problem changing a contract phone over to Pre Pay for me, had to buy top up though as the guy said Vodafone caught on to them selling them without.

Having played around myself before handing over it is a very nice and smooth phone to use.
