Hi phone gurus in the house. I'm planning to get a UK used LG G2 by month end, but I'm really getting concerned about few comments I have read online about the phone's digitizer.

I learnt after some times some parts of the screen will start to malfunction. I really want to know if this issue is a general issue or common to certain variants of the device.

And if I encounter the problem, how can it be solved?

What's the current UK used price of the device as well as G3?

Pls comment..

Absolutely correct I bought one three months ago and some part of the screen stopped responding while on 3g the phone heats up as if its microwave oven, its good looking though and very fast but the screen response is very bad. just change the battery and it cost 5k and 1k workmanship. My advice.........avoid the device

Thanks so much bro! Do you have any comment about the G3?

No

No

Did you buy your G2 as new or US used?
Have you been able to resolve the screen issue?
Was the battery bad initially and needed to be changed? How is its condition now?




Thanks

^^^ thanks for your contribution..
I need more info plsss

If it helps, i remember seeing a G2 for sale with a faulty touch here on NL.

I've used G2 for a while, it's a good phone, it served it's purpose, now when using G2, make sure u upgrade to lollipop to avoid excessive heating. U can use G3 custom rom. The screen issue arises if you've changed the screen imperfectly. The g2 screen is very sensitive. So when buying, make sure every part of the phone is sealed tightly, make sure it has no scratches, try using it to browse for 5 min and monitor the temperature. If after doing so its normal then ur good to go. Also use a glass scree guard for better protection of the phone.



G3 is an upgrade for g2, I love the device. Even upto G5 LG devices are unique in their own way. The G3 don't have precautionary measures like the g2. It's perfect.

Thanks so much for your contribution bro. I don't have any idea about using "custom rom". Could you please put me through?

And what are its pros and cons?

Well for now I won't advice u to do it urself. So u don't brick ur phone. But if u still insist, u can watch videos on YouTube on how to go about it.

Buy the nexus 5x, then thank me later, no screen issues and very affordable.

G3 also has the touch issues but it takes a longer while to get the defect compared to G2

G4 has bootlops ish

infact I no trust any LG product cos even my g3 that had 3000mah battery doesn't last like my phantom 5 with d same 3000mah battery

Does it mean all G2s produced by LG have the digitizer problems?

I have experienced a bad screen once when I changed my Xperia Z1 screen. It can make someone smack the phone again the wall.
