              thaied, 20 Jul 2016weeks of emails and still no driver works for win 10 ? Is there one. I can't sync, tethere... moreSurely when you plug the G5 into your PC, the G5 shows up in documents/my computer. Then you can gain access to the the phones internal memory or sd card and just drag and drop files/music/video etc to and from the phone.

                    Further, when you connect G5 to PC, then in G5, pull down notification bar and you will see the message :
                    Charging only - Tap to change the USB Connection.

                    Tap on that message and then remaining options appear.

                        G5 H860. I get a lg.com support msg asking me for cam plus modle and Imei no's.
                        They come back and say ""take it to the Riyadh Saudi store where I"m at presently. They have no clue as thats why I"m online to get support !

                        Found the LG Smarltworld apk download site does not work. My phone widget connnected says; it only works with LG phones. YES.!!- I'm on a g5 phone and its not recognized. !! Everyone with a G5 should get on the smartworld web site. It will be the first and last time !

                        For travelers; would you not expect to get on any LG web site and fine your phone model. Not here !

                          What web site comes up to give win10 usb drivers ?

                          i had to get the developer mode selection turned on with usb debugging on and all other options that should allow syncing to a pc etc.

                            I can't sync, tethere or get an apk's thru my pc.

                            2. I found out also there are 2 models of the Cam Plus since mine is not working. Also the apks or software versions can't be upgraded with any usb connection to the phone; unlike any other phone.
                            3. Getting the developer mode options turned on is quite a treat !! not one mention on an LG web site or in the manual. That must be on to usb into your pc for any sync''ing and installing new apps.

                                Got mine for £290 off eBay. Brand new, sealed box, unwanted upgrade. Can't fault it. I think it looks good, I don't use a case or anything. Had a note 4 before so its got some big boots to fill. Batterys better than I thought it would be and the screen isn't as dim as I expected.
                                I miss touchwiz though. I miss the extra features it offered. I find the LG UI a bit simplistic but still very pleased with my purchase. Put a 128gb sd card in so got loads of space for my music and porn collection.

                                      Not even have this new model listed. loading the 850 usb driver gives errors so no way to see your phone on a pc. .
                                      Support questions on the web site go for over a week without replies. !
