LG G3

[PC-User]

I would prolly get the G3 on ST tmr on combo 2.. for the software update to lollipop.. is it recommended to upgrade it directly once I got the phone?

I did that. Directly updated to Lollipop followed by a factory reset before use. Decent battery life and no heating issue.

Yes, you should do it out of the box if it hasn't been done - do a factory default after that would be nice.

But for my case, when I got the unit from StarHub early May, it was already out of the box Lollipop.

Where where? Online or physical stores?

Physical stores. Saw the promo on the leaflet.

I am not sure about stocks availability though. You might need to try your luck at the store front.

It's updated using OTA? Means no need to plug in the phone to pc and download hor ?

So regretted getting this phone.. less than 5 hours i got this phone this phone goes into a deep sleep.. it cant wake up via power button and i had to unplug the battery, and when i charge it happens again.. it is really irritating and i decided to go down to ST tmr and change to another phone hopefully they allow me to do so cos i got this phone via recontract.. im surprised why no one mentioned this issue here but when i search XDA this issue is discussed quite commonly.

Maybe a lemon unit? Mine has no issues so far. Been using it for a month.

not sure what is deep sleep.. the closest i experienced to what u hv is a screen that refuses to stay on (eg tap to on / press power button, screen will on for a fraction of a second and then off) but it goes away by itself. its annoying if ur doing something important but it doesnt occur that often to disrupt my everyday use. in fact since i upgraded to lollipop, cant rmbr the last time i tio this bug..

out of the box, we all expect our phones to be flawless especially for a 1yr mature product but there will always be lemons.. even for apple. what phone will u change to?

But one thing to note though. After the most recent (another) update, battery drops fast when using WiFi. 4G remains good. Maybe it's just me.

No such thing happened to my unit. The 'weirdest' thing ever happened is the 'Home has stopped working' once out of the box before I updated to 5.0. But anyway I use Apex ever since.

Yea, I thought it was only me.

I noticed that. I think 4G surfing also consumed a little more power than before.

I guess that is not a issue for these major brand. Unlike those China brand (except Lenovo).

I didn't see the option to enable VoLTE on my StarHub set leh. Am I missing something?
