Questions about the LG G2 Mini - LG G2 Mini

First, and most important one, is it wourth buying (I can get one for 300 Euros)?
Edit: Yes it is
Second, I saw that it got rooted, here, but what about a custom recovery? Is anyone working on it?
Edit: Custom recoveries are available

One more question from me. How can you cope with the fact it has no notification led? I'll pass this phone because of this. I would have to unlock the phone just to see if I have a message or a missed call? This is so wrong...

I am used to it because my GT-I5500 doesn't have one.
So, it's ok.

With knock on feature its not a big problem

No LED
the phone should at least have a reminder system on it, beep every 5 seconds or something like that.

It should be natively supported in the ringtone or alert options. all my phones besides the sola and v9 didn't have leds, the rest all beeped at a set time till the message/miss call/calendar alert was opened.
Just saying that it should have that option natively.

An small hint for the noobs (it worked for me...) The code is different for each HW version of the device, so first check your model number (in my case LG-D805) and then the code will be 3845#*""your model number""#

in germany the g2 mini has a notification led in the rear power button

After playing around on the device for a few days, I haven't found a reminder system. Abit disappointing.

I don't know how the D625 but my speakerphone works OK, no problems with it, I'm using D620r.
My wife have problems with hearing and when she is using my G mini, she have no problems with it(normally she is using hearing aid).
Don't know what do you mean by saying directly form SD, I'm using gmail app for sending pictures, and have no problem with it.

according to outfit7 (devs of talking tom) galaxy 3 froyo has some audio bug which isnt their problem but of samsung's ,so their suggestion is to upgrade or downgrade to make it work...but surprisingly santa and ginger works well on froyo...
Get older version of tom 1

That means problem related with changes that outfit has made and not exactly with phone

Easy way to find...
The file will be of more size than current versions...

flash of camera doesn't work

Hi everybody,
The camera flash of my new Samsung S3 haven't worked since the first day I've got my new phone. Factory reset didn't help The phone is in repair now, but I 'm wondering - did anyone have the same problem, or it's only my bad luck.
Thanks!

Yes, I'm sure
Try a flashlight App from the market then you'll know if it's just cam software related.
You're the first one I've heard of who has a broken LED light, so it's not a common issue.
However even with the most rigorous quality control, when building several millions of a device there are a few bound to be broken upon shipping or have loose connections.

L9, what do you think?

Hello!
1) What do you think of this mobile phone, LG P760 L9?
2) Major defects?
3) A L9 used, but in good condition, how much would you pay?
Thanks!
L9 is a great phone for its price.
No major defects.
It runs jellybean with no lag 4.1 officially and you can upgrade it to CM 10.2 for even better performance.
I'd pay $180-$220 for used p760 in good condition considering you can get a new one for $240.

First of all, thanks for the reply. I will look also other comments.
For you, who are satisfied with your cell phone, four questions:
1) It is too big? 13x7cm. How do you get with this?
2) The absence of light sensor. It is so important in this phone?
3) There is an LED for notifications?
4) 4.1 OFFICIAL? And 4.3 with a custom rom? Have I understood correctly?

1. My hands aren't that big and the phone fits perfectly in my hand and I can use the phone comfortably with one hand.
2. Light sensor doesn't matter at all in my opinion. Especially with CM, where you could adjust the brightness from the status bar, which you can easily do even when its too bright outside to see your screen. The stock rom also has a brightness slider in the notification drawer. You probably won't even notice its gone.
3. No, there is no LED, although there is am app you can use to make the back and menu lights into LED notification lights.
4. Yes 4.1 is official and the only bug for CM 10.2 is that the camera only records 720p instead of 1080p.

You're welcome. Rooting and unlocking the boot loader for the P760 is very easy, you could probably do it in 10 minutes.
Edit: forgot to mention this, the p760 is officially supported by CM and PA which is a huge plus.

Hi.
With the exception of the bypass of samsung protection, all those features are already available in the rooted firmware. and custom themes are popping up slowly...
The reason there are so many different firmware files is because its not like the Gear 1 where it was one model and thats it. Theres several different variants that differ in model, supported bands and country so there wouldnt be one piece of software to cover all.

That's the biggest thing I'm looking for is the bypass of samsung protection. To be able to modify the apks and install them on the watch through my non-samsung phone (like I do with my gear 2).
The model I have is at&t.. Not sure if that would be difficult to modify.
Btw, thanks for the response!
