Hmm thats weird. Gpro 2 is latest model and if G flex L supports, then gpro 2 K should not have any problem. I read somewhere about unlocking LTE band on some models on a Chinese forum, don't exactly remember. Many of Pakistani importers import form China as well, I guess someone has unlocked the 1800 band on it and this L version is imported from there. That could b the only reason as if latest variants have 1800mhz support, Gpro 2's K and L version should be the first instead of G flex.

P.S. The "S" version is confirmed to support LTE in Pakistan.

as salaam o alaikum brothers,
so i rooted the cellphones and deleted some files(system files) and after that it did not turn on unless it took a shopkeeper almost 2 days to turn it back on and the imei was flashed along i guess, I was wondering if anyone here knew a solution. Any guidance would be appreciated thank you :D
If shopkeeper has installed custom / English rom, then IMEI issue is very common. If you are able to make call etc and it is picking your sime, just install official KDZ on it and it will be back if you are uncomfortable with it.

i can confirm it too that L varient is also picking local 4G. i was at Singapur palaza today and checked few G2 wich were L varients and all of them including one vega iron 2 was also picking local 4G of Warid and Zong. it could be possible due to LTE-A.

brother the imei has been recovered but now the phone does not run 3g or 4g, i was using 3g on this cellphone before this imei issue but after imei reinstalled the phone does not support 3g or 4g. Any idea about the issue? i guess its the baseband the shopkeeper flashed which is the cause of this issue :l

First of all, make sure you have configured APN settings. After configuration, go to network mode and select LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto.

Are you on official Korean rom? Baseband is changed to stock if you have installed official KDZ. Check if there is poor 3G coverage in your area or you might be sitting somewhere with low 3G signals. If it is not the issue, then you should install custom rom that works good on 3G/4G.

See thats the issue with korean phones, the phone has been designed to work with korean bands and when its forced to use with paki bands it has to do extra work just to stick to the signal hence causing low battery. Still though a 3 hrs SOT is not too bad considering the internationalversion gets 4 to 4.5 . You may check the phone for any wakelocks or badly behaving app as well. Furthermore their are some extended batteries available in the market as well.

Korean phones work with our local networks because bands offered by our local networks match with those supported by these phones.You cant actually ''force'' a phone to work with bands which it doesn't support. And that's the main reason ''L'' variants don't support our local LTE bands.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
