I installed that as well, I just hate how the address bar stays static the whole time. I hope they start supporting this phone!
Gosms pro works well and it let's you create notification lights that you want

Who can prove G Pro does have a zerogap touch screen or doesn't. Has any review mentioned air gap in display?
I use an older version of Dolphin 8.5.1, and the pinch zoom works on my Pro. I had read somewhere that starting with Dolphin 9, it stops supporting Flash, that is why i use the older version. Not sure if that's true or not, but I just refuse to update Dolphin when the update shows up in google play store.

I used the one developed for the original LGOG - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2021248
Doesn't appear it has to my eyes. Looks a little recessed to me. Honestly, it's my only issue with this device which really is minor.

so you have a g pro then? any chances of this getting bootloader unlocked and seeing custom roms? i used to run your cm10 rom for the note 2.

i do. I'm still playing around with it in my free time. Managed to get into fastboot and create a recovery image but the phone is definitely bootloader locked and it'll require someone with much better skills than me in reverse engineering and disassembling aboot. It uses the same qualcomm Qfuses as recent Motorola and Samsung devices that got hacked. Just need the right person to look at it and hopefully unlock it too. It's looking tough though.
this is why im passing on it right now. hopefully by the time it gets unlocked the price will drop to $99 on contract. also sold my s4 because of the lag and locked bootloader. at least my htc one is bootloader unlocked with aosp. runs like a beast but is a tad small for me.

I suspect bootloaders will get even more challenging as time goes on. If the GN3 uses Exynos Octo Processors like the S4 for non-us markets then we could be facing some ugly days there since its a lot harder to get past it. I pay good money for the phone it should be unlocked. Carriers cannot say it degrades network performance when in fact devices with unlocked bootloaders are made and sold and put on the very networks the Carriers claim would be harmed.
I've been comparing this (fully stock and unrooted) with my note 2 (odexed and rooted). This definitely seems snappier opening apps and moving around. Cameras seem to be a wash. Note definitely wins on battery. And the screen on the pro g is better imho. I like my whites white and colors more natural - LCD vs amoled. The higher ppi and resolution sway me too. I also like the feel in the hand of the pro g. The flatter sides and thinner bezel make a difference. So as long as you can charge mid-day, this is the better choice.
Indeed, have to agree with ya . Hands down, i would need the note 3 to sway me away from this phone.... Should have better spec's..... But right now with cache booster,clean master, juice defender it really keeps this phone quick snappy and responsive.... and batt life.. not sure about you guys but really isnt bad... wake up to goto work with 100% by 8pm after surfing on wifi parts of the day and on the phone with insurance co. easy 20 - 30 min .. i was like 45 % ..not bad lol
Me either. I have been getting great battery life. Maybe my Note 2 battery was bad. It made a day but wasn't leaps and bounds better like I hear about

Agreed to an extent. I manage an at&t store so when I soft bricked my phone last night, there we no way I was returning it. I stayed up 530 am fixing out which I finally did. It's an ethics issue for me as well.
On the flip side, if they would unlock these damn phones, people would have legitimate recoveries they could fix their own phones with. Some of this falls on the carrier's and LG's shoulders too.

After you root you can install the ClockWorks Mod recovery from an apk app from the international version at the following link;

I installed it and did a backup already
I assume there will be more like "TWRP" for our phone in the near future
