The Official Korean Phones Thread

[AamirXtreme]

anybody have shv-e330s s4? It is updated to 4.4.2 and my issue is poor battery dead in 3 hour continuous use what is the solution? Going back to 4.2 can improve battery or not ? s4 initial rom had pretty good battery so that battery can obtained or not?

Many S4 users reported faster battry drain after kitkat update. Use this app to check which apps are constantly keeping processor busy.

Root your phone and Uninstall all korean Bloatware.

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.

Well now there's a way to make a phone work with a band it doesn't supports but it's not what everyone can do. Can't wait to try the method on my nexus d820 .

Dude, their is something called optimization aswell, no two countries 1800 mhz bands are identical. Things are more complex at the backend than say, just matching the bands and you're good to go.

Chipset and Baseband is usually compatible with many bands and frequencies You just have to have additional component on the board to have additional support its true that its software's job to interpret the data on the various frequencies, so technically software can interpret the signal, it just won't be as efficient but still better than nothing.

If your statement is correct Then all phones are doing ''extra work'' to support our local networks as no phone is specifically designed for Pakistani Networks ( Qmobiles/G5s are exception). Even Asian versions of Phones target Indian networks.

r these korean set or original ones like
lg g2, optimus g pro, pro 2 etc
vega iron n iron 2 i guess r korean sets
inclining to get one but i was wondering that between version 1 n 2 main difference is of ram increase to 3gb from 2gb so is that worth it?
also like nexu 5 has 2gb ram but g pro 2 has 3 so that would be better?
n if a set is like 240L so that means 4g wont work on it? as i had been reading here that it should be S or K but not L what is that exactly?

also specs were almost same of g2 n of optimus g pro so how comes g2 is around 22 but g pro for 16-18k

card slot is a plus for me as i dont wanna throw away my 16gb card n atleast kitkat n a good cam wid flash n a pretty fast cpu so it wont lag or get stuck ever which i hate too much n big screen is also a plus for me, so far tried 5" n i like that much atleast, dont like small screens, the bigger the better but i wonder if 5.5 or 6 would b too much

n sorry for asking but if a cell like vega iron or g pro already has everything n 2gb ram then how more useful can b their next versions

n what is a korean set anyways?
like if international version is i9500 so same s4 made for korea will be korean set but different specs then y cheaper?

 

[smaaz]

No bro they have different frequency range edge will not work on Korean phones but 3g will also all of them have an antenna for digital TV. These are same phones as Intl but customized for Korean people. But with a costum ROM these problems can be resolved. They are cheaper coz they normally come used with OK conditions or locally return like f180 with body change etc. So I stay away from a Korean phone that will look brand new.

 

[Dark Sith]

There is nothing wrong.with korean.phones been using.them my.self .

They offer good.vakue for money

there is a big difference between Vega iron 1 and 2, iron 1 has snapdragon 600 whereas 2 has 801, plus increased screen resolution plus fingerprint sensor plus awesome amoled display plus wide OIS camera plus increased ram as you have mentioned

kindly some1 answer to bold parts as well
thanks

 

[BlackHawk2317]

yes these are original sets released for korean market with different model no, e.g g2 international version is D802 whereas korean on is f320S,K,L. and yes L versions dont support our native 4g band and you cannot run 4g on them. performance depends on specifications mostly and yes g pro 2 is better than nexus 5

 

[achoo]

Can anyone tell me how is this korean phone?Korean Mobile is men difference kia hoga normal wale galaxy alpha se?Thanks!

 

[gamer11]

need to know which one would be better
g pro vs g2
g2 vs g pro 2

n if something else is even better

 

[ShuAK]

if you can afford then G2 otherwise g pro. G pro and pro 2 are phablets so if you prefer large screens and can afford then G Pro 2 otherwise G pro. G2 is a device which stands between g pro and pro 2. if i had to choose which i did btw i go for G2. you can also go for S4 (E330) it is also a very good set priced at 22-23000. it is same as G2 only difference is screen size and technology. but you wont find any better roms for this set. Note 3 is also very good as phablet. 33-34000 is the price.
