Is it okay to download software for my LG 230 from other website aside from the LG website? Will it affect the performance of my mobile phone? I want to download software for video streaming, games, Skype usage and a lot more.

Hi,
It won't have any effects on your mobile phone unless the software that you will download contains viruses. It is still advisable to go to LG website directly and search for the correct software you were looking for. Or you can also visit the this link to get more information regarding the support provided by LG and also the new updates available: http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-LG230
Thanks!

Hey Wellington, hello there.
Well you are actually afraid that your smart phone will caught some viruses, well I will say that there are some sites which are prone to malpractice but you cant say that for all the unofficial sites like for one instance Mobile9 and Tablets
It is a good website with a large number of apps in the store for everybody.

If your LG Smartphone is having problems, the idea of updating its firmware is good but you don’t need to download it from other website. You should update your phone’s firmware from the official LG website and when updating the firmware, you don’t need to download the firmware itself manually and install it on your phone.
Use the PC Suite designed for LG Smartphones to update your phone’s operating system. If you want to update the firmware of your device, download and install LG PC Suite for Windows. For Mac, download and install LG PC Suite for OS X. Once installed, connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable that came with it.
After this, on your Smartphone, tap the USB notification in the notification panel which normally appears at the top of the screen. Next, tap “Media device (MTP)” if it’s not selected automatically. MTP needs to be selected before the PC Suite recognizes your device. You need to do this if MTP is not selected automatically every time you want to connect your phone to your computer.
Now, to update the firmware on your phone, with your phone connected to your computer and MTP already selected, start the LG PC Suite on your computer. Go to “Software update” tab and click “Software update” to check for an available update. If an update is available, click “Start” to update your device.
Now, if you want to install Android apps, the best and only recommended site is the Google Play store but you can also download APKs from other websites. It’s just that you won’t have support when you encounter problems with the application.
