I haven't flashed any rom,  does that count as stock recovery?

Just boot into recovery and you will confirm what recovery you have.

Sry Sry. Not testing. Resetting. Using Swype. Didn't notice the error while doing it. If manually enter the recovery, the phone will hard rest itself if dun have custom recovery installed?
*
No la ,won't reset anything one.

Wifi. But when wifi is off I use data. I checked wifi settings. The wifi is set to always on during sleep. hmm. Any ideas? im on cloudy stock 2.
*
Make sure internet unavailable and WiFi weak signal is unchecked as well.

I'm on cloudy stock 2 as well and not having your issue.

Another way to test is just use data and turn off WiFi and see if notifications still coming in

I was just going to say the same thing biggrin.gif
Most likely cloudy ones? heh.

yes ! most likely from cloudyfa wink.gif

I think the most noticeable upgrade for G2 vs G3 would be the laser auto focus feature. Waiting to see real user review on the accuracy and speed of the auto focus. Wonder if the improvement is as dramatic as they are selling it or not hehe

I think G3 hit sweet spot ( maybe my own opinion )

What I love :
Top of the line spec ( IPS + QHD + S801 + 3000mAh + 13MP + OIS )
Flexibility ( 3GB and 32GB options, with expandable storage, and removable battery )
Good looking ( slim body, metallic looks, modern flat UI )
Innovative yet useful features ( knock code, QuickCicle case, laser focusing )

While I'm long time Nexus user  rolleyes.gif , so really get used to stock Android, if G3 got GooglePlay Edition, it should be close to perfect ?  whistling.gif
*
But then u will loose the modern flat ui, all the lg smart features, quick circle function, possibly the laser focusing, and also the 20% adaptive battery saving technology

Yes, but as long time Nexus supporter, I need speeeeeed  cool2.gif  that only Nexus could offer, and to be honest Google Now launcher looks much prettier IMHO, without all those extra features you never use.
Note that GooglePlay edition is different than stock Android. Google Play edition might still include some of the features like laser focusing and batt saving tech, as hint from One M8's GPE still got certain main features available.
Furthermore, I hate book case coz it's stupid, cant open case with one hand, flap hit your face and you looks like idiot, well it's just my opinion.

Do take my opinion with grain of salt, as I've been poisoned by Nexus for 4 years, cant really go back to OEM skin  whistling.gif
*
I've experienced nexus 1 to 5 so i know what Nexus is. I use to think the same like you that OEM skin is totally unacceptable until i change to G2. The truth is, I don't feel AOSP on G2(or nexus 5) is any faster than stock G2. We have come a long way since those days and the hardware now is able to tolerant a little bit of eye candy and some extra features. About those extra features, different people have different need. I for one uses some features daily eg. knock code, quick window, split screen, camera modes and On Screen Phone just to name a few.

You pretty much said is yourself, all you need is a Google Now launcher and the phone feels and looks like stock android. Then why is the need of GPE with reduce feature when u can have full feature + your favourite launcher, right ?

mikey ... what xposed module u recommend more ??? tweaksbox or g2 xposed ???
*
both have their own unique features but tweaksbox comes with more features.

however, i somewhat prefer g2 xposed cuz I only need some features and g2 xposed seems to handle it better, especially on the navigation bar control

bros, i kinda messed up my recovery by flashing the image file directly from Rom Installer. Is there a way to re-install a recovery ? I tried the power button and volume down start but it just goes to a black screen. Currently device is already rooted.

Phone is still working fine with stock kitkat rom though it can't get into recovery.

Try autorec

I'll stick with cm rom since there is an external LG camera app that can be used. I prefer the almost stock android looks of the cm11.

Latest antutu score..  Quite decent,  beat S5 and M8:-

Antutu

Will Google Now launcher affect the scores?

Don't think a launcher will affect the scores.

Anyway, the scores does not reflect actual performance so it doesnt matter to me.

Original parts on eBay..  Threadstarter can you add these links so new users won't kena slaughter?

Been using the phone naked for a day, I think it's the best looking form when naked. If anyone wants to order original back cover maybe we can order a few to save cost. Actually it's slightly over rm100 a bit costly,  but you do get assurance if the phone drops at least there is a replacement cover. I may get white cover,  white camera lens and button and white sim tray to mix and match. Now only thing missing is the removal device..

Since the ask can be opened,  worthwhile to get some spare parts like battery if you plan to keep the phone for awhile.
*
if the phone is dropped, the back cover should be the least of concern. Chances are you will need replacement screen haha
