   Great replacement and value to an And4 phone! Unfortunately, camera problems lead me to move on – I used this phone as my “primary driver”… calls, txt, email, internet browsing, GPS, maps, camera, looking at videos + photos, documents, and games.

   This phone is GREAT. It’s not perfect – This phone is GREAT. It’s not perfect, but since I can’t give it 4 1/2 stars, it gets 5. Because that’s how good it is.

   Nice camera – Bad battery life – Until you get the boot loop! – For me, it took one year plus 3 days to get the boot loop problem. Freezing the phone in my kitchen freezer enabled me to boot the G4 a few last times to rescue my photos and to back up my text messages. It is still to be seen what LG will do in my case. They have thus far provided a prepaid trip for the phone to their Texas service center. I don’t know when I will get my phone back and they made no promise to actually fix it. I have read a few horror stories about the “factory repair.” Users have gotten their phones back weeks later with cracked screens, bent battery pins, or unexpected bills. Many users have reported getting only a few more months of use from their “repaired” phones before the boot loop issue returned. In the year of time my phone worked, I rarely got more than 3 hours of screen on time from a full charge. My phone always ran warm even without stressing it with GPS or games. Running more efficient custom kernels and limiting the CPU speed helped only a little. On the plus side, the camera was my favorite feature (but only if you stick to a stock or stock-based ROM). The screen’s brightness was more than adequate under most circumstances and the clarity of the display was great. Also, the small single rear-facing speaker was surprisingly strong and clear. Although I am not a gamer, the Snapdragon 808 never disappointed even when running two apps simultaneously in dual window mode. I think I could have been okay with permanently disabling the 2 big cores in order to bypass the boot loop problem . For other global variants of the G4, this is an option as there are custom .tot files available that enable users to bypass the problematic big cores. Living with a slower phone would have been much better for me than sending it away. This was not what I expected for $350. Next time, I’d rather pay $900 for a phone that lasts 3 trouble-free years before any catastrophic hardware problems. I’d gladly trade specs and features for a more expensive phone that continues to work.
