@vegetaleb I simply do not trust Amhaz warranty - go for the Official Sure - Great Device even without Custom Roms ; better than the S6 from my 1st week personal experience.
LG G4 in Lebanon
Nice to hear!Tech Guru wrote@vegetaleb I simply do not trust Amhaz warranty - go for the Official Sure - Great Device even without Custom Roms ; better than the S6 from my 1st week personal experience.
I am gonna wait 3-4 weeks till the price settle down, knowing G3 price went down to 430-450$ pretty quickly I can wait.
Besides my M9 is still giving me everything but the big screen, the new updates improved greatly the camera and thermals.
The Sense 7 port + HTC apps are under work right now for phones like G4, so waiting a month is perfect for both price and custom roms + tweaks + sense 7 full port.
I heard the new FW OTA gave the G4 a nice Quick charging 2.0 compatibility, though thermals still need a fix (perhaps in next OTA).

Hello!
Root is finally available for G4, though it looks like the prices guy from amhaz is on holidays!
It's still at 520$ for 3 weeks!!
I won't pay that much knowing they will cut the price about 50-70$ anytime now.
Note 5 will be unveiled in 10days, it will surely push G4 price to drop even more.
How do you find the G4 now?

Enjoying It , Perfect round around Mobile , you get one or still. I think the G4 prices already dropped in Lebanon.
G4 H815 525
G4 H818 Dual Sim 535
Even though I don't Trust in Warranty - In the Market you add 5% + about 590USD " Warranty"
G4 H815 525 = 525*1.05 + 40 = 600
G4 H818 Dual Sim 535 = 535*1.05 + 40 = 600
The above Amhaz " Star Communication" Prices I obtained them from the Excel Template that is updated weekly - http://www.stars.com.lb/main.aspx + these prices are lower than the market by a margin of 5% and doesn't include warranty , but they don't mention that to potential customers as such they will motivated to buy when they see such prices compared to the market.

These prices are from the 21st july, dunno why amhaz didn't put a this week's list!
G3 price a year later is 380$ with official warranty, so buying the G4 at 600$ even at 525$ is way too much. The G4 price in the US dropped 150$ already.
That's why I say G4 should be at 450$ now in Lebanon, but amhaz is in a deep coma!
The Note 5 annoucement will wake them up LOL.
Btw note 5 looks pretty deceiving with the fragile glass back and no sdcard

"Btw note 5 looks pretty deceiving with the fragile glass back and no sdcard" 100% I agree , the shift of Samsung with S6 and now Note 5 with no SD and none removable back is not smart. May the trend will change with the S7. I like the G4 more than the S6 Frequently - but the S6 has a lot of power beneath. In both cases, time to move a new batteries technology. I guess Samsung get a patent with a new battery technology , with more juice , compact , and very fast to charge. Hopefully they will introduce in the S7. However, the wireless charging from the S6 goes along with a GPS usage, but "literally" it is not wireless , the machine need to be set on a wireless adaptor.

Yep the S6 wireless charging is bs, people are not so lazy to not plug the micro usb + it's slow charging.
Quick charging 2.0 though is a superb tech and it's on all flagships like M9 and G4.
I usually have difficulties to switch from HTC phones to other brands because of the perfect Sense 7, but now that Xpirt from xda ported it to all other Android phones with lolipop, I can finally consider a G4 or even note 4.
The problem now is that amhaz who is the prices mover didn't update his pricelist for 10 days now!!
Looks like I will have to wait till Note 5 unveiling after all to see things crumble.
Too bad htc doesn't want to play in the phablet ground, the Aero that will come out in october will be 5.2" at best

One question: i have a chance to trade my like new note 4 4g to a like new lg g4!
Should i do it?

Yes Go For It
Hey! I want a used G4!!LifeEngineer wroteOne question: i have a chance to trade my like new note 4 4g to a like new lg g4!

New it's overpriced
But anyway check the touchscreen to see if it has issues.
Why you want to get rid of your Note 4? It has some good roms now like Glamour

Well it's a good phone definitely and a great camera but it's far from perfect!vegetaleb wrote Hey! I want a used G4!!

What gets on my nerve mostly is that recent button that takes nearly 3 seconds to load! Sometimes 5sec!
I tried every custom rom, I debloated the rom, stopped s voice, s health, talk,...
I followed every tip online but it still take a lot of time for a 600$ phone!
Also, even with all those debloated rom, I never have a free gig of ram! Multitasking is bad with that touchwiz eating everything and closing apps in the background! Of course not as bad as a S6, but still not as good as a G4 or an xperia Z3!
Also on lollipop, pretty much like every other phone, battery sucks on data! It's a known bug in lollipop pre-5.1.1 and apps keep sucking battery and connecting all the time! I barely get 3hrs of SOT in a normal day! On wifi, I can get 8hrs SOT! The issue isn't there on wifi!
Also, the fingerprint is garbage with that swipe system and frustrating!
Finally, I have had many hangups and reboots! Not a critical issue! Maybe once a day but it still bothers me!
Yep I understand you, I passed by samsung showroom today just for curiosity, the Note 4 there was laggy!LifeEngineer wroteWell it's a good phone definitely and a great camera but it's far from perfect!vegetaleb wrote Hey! I want a used G4!!

Opening the app drawer took 2 secs, the whole phone looked slowed, it's weird but it's like their was an expiry date on this phone.
Now I am convinced it will be G4.
My M9 is wonderful but I need a bigger screen.
Waiting for mr Amhaz to drop the price as the LG company in Lebanon won't do it if Amhaz maintain the same price LOL
I don't want to pay too much for the M9 to G4 passage.
Btw did you tried Sense 7 launcher port + Sense apps ports from xpirt?
Well unfortunately it's the case for every samsung! I just really can't understand how do they do it?!! How do they fuck up each phone!vegetaleb wrote

I have had lg, htc, oneplus one, etc... And although android by itself is a mess and collects garbage with time, not a single one showed issues like the one samsungs exhibit! Really amazing! They're good at it!
I always say that's my last samsung but always get one bcz i get tempted by the hardware, specs and features hoping that software should be much better! And I'm always wrong!
No I didn't try those ports! I like htc but unlike samsung they didn't realease till now a flagship with true good specs! Always something to still wish for!
I always said it and will say it "htc is one of the best smartphones maker in the world but they committed suicide with the htc sensation and still are committing suicide with each phone they released!" Pitty...

LG official pack price decreased 50$ this week, it's now 560$ full with 18months warranty!!
Amhaz price manager is really in holidays, for 40$ I will definitely take the official version.
Let's see amhaz reaction :)

Not impressed by the note 5 and its lack of sdcard!
Rumours are saying note 4 price will drop to 450$ and note edge to 550$ this week!
Tried the G4 in the showroom of LG with my earphones as my smartphones are my audio player in car and sports, sound quality was pretty nice but volume was not even close to my M9.
I heard the SOT of G4 is not great, how much are you getting?
Anyone bought the "gold" plastic model?
Looks like they are not selling leather back cover alone.

I would wait for the G4 pro
@vegetaleb
I have been using the G4 now for approximately 2 Months - It is a great all around phone , go grab one mate you have been interested in it for a while and I am surprised until now you did not get one.
