    To be honest I don't know what it should say. I just looked at mine and it's gsm/wcdma/lte. Lte is what you want for 4g access. Take it to a meteor store and they'll have you up and running in 10 mins.

    I will get a new 4g sim tomorrow. Thanks very much for the info - much appreciated.

    I got a new 4g sim card today but still no 4g option on my phone. Disappointing!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,198 ✭✭✭bren2002


    This is what I have in mobile networks. I'm not always connected at 4g. Generally it's a city centre thing. Out here in the burbs 3G or H.

    I think it might be something to do with the software version on my phone. Hopefully when Android M comes out, that will fix the issue. Thanks

    You could try a factory reset. Just backup your contacts first.

    Just checked and my software version is V20u-TWN-XX. I bought it from a UK website though. Maybe not compatible with 4g

    You're beyond me now I'm afraid. I suspect there is someone out there who could help but it's not me. Twn could be Taiwan? LG support might be able to help, I used them once they're slow but they seem to know what they're talking about.

    Either way a factory reset is worth trying.

    I will try that. Thanks for your help

    I hope it's marshmallow!

    Nope, its a lollipop update.

    Just bought one of these on the AliExpress 11.11 sale and I'm excited for it!

    It was between that or the Nexus 6 but I'm going to flash stock Lollipop (or hopefully Marshmallow) as soon as I get the phone anyway.

    Wahoo!:pac:

    I did. It was described as a thermal crack on the screen. Basically it was a screen crack that was under the screen if that makes sense.

    I had to get it diagnosed by LG support. They are very good but a bit slow and the support site interface is a diasaster.

    It probably took a month end to end but they replaced the handset with no issue oncevtbey confirmed the thermal crack.

    cheers for the reply.

    I dont think mine is a thermal crack. Altough i got a sscreen burn a few months ago due to over heating....Lg wouldnt confirm till i sent off the phone to there 3rd party repair centre. So i did...2 weeks later got the phone back un touched with a note saying " purchased from outside the EU", so wasnt there issue.

    So rang again and had a disagreement..they assured me they would sort it and book it in...sent it off...3 days later same note, Phone untouched again.

    Havent got back onto them since as its out of 1 year warranty and cant afford to keep sending it off.

    Weighing up the options with it atm. Been heartache with constant rebooting even after a few batteries so toying with just cutting my loses, even though i love the phone

    Anywhere else doing these for sub €300 at the moment?

    Herself had her S5 stolen recently so looking for a suitable replacement that won't break the bank. Thnks!

    So I updated to marshmallow. No lag at all. Battery seems to be much improved.

    Anyone know if these ever come back into stock in Argos and if so is there any idea when? Is it worth checking each night /morning...? :) ta

    I think you are wasting your time checking the stock all the time. You would be better off purchasing it somewhere else if you are really set on buying one. Argos have not had them in stock in a long time
