Hello all:

I have LG G3 which is acting up, my screen is flickering and turns black itslef and then comes on. I have reboted to factory set but still the same problem. I have googled and found out that I have clear my cashed which I did but the same problem 😞

I don't want to spend money to have this fixed as this is few years old, and was exploring my options.

I have found one phone from sky devices.

please let me know if this is a good phone and if they will work with PM.

Thank you in advance.

This phone should work fine on the public mobile service.

I've never heard of this brand of phone but it should work.

You can check to make sure it works on PM's network.

@ech_786 that phone should work as it includes 850 & 1900 MHz 3G support. Also, all four of it's LTE bands are supported on PM as well:

From the spec sheet you linked:

3G 850/1700/1900
4G 2/4/7/17

PM is on the Bell+Telus network, which uses the following bands:

UMTS/HSPA(3G): B2 (1900), B5 (850)

LTE(4G): B2(1900), B4(1700/2100), B5(850), B7(2600), B12(700), B13(700) and B17(700)

The phone you're pointing too lists:

3G 850/1700/1900
4G 2/4/7/17

So you will be quite good to go. The lack of B5 and B12+13 will hurt a tiny amount in more rural areas (those bands have longer range+better building penetration), but your experience with the network will be pretty much 100% on this phone since with B17 you will still get some of that 700MHz band.
