So I never tried Chat On before and figured I'd download it just to try. What a mistake!!! After it being on my phone a day I had noticed it was responsible for like 47% of my battery life that day and it was closed!!! I didn't even use it once! So of course I deleted it once I saw this. So I wake up this morning, take my phone off the charger, had 100% battery, and then 3 hrs later my battery is almost dead!!!! I go to settings,battery and what do ya know com.sec.chaton has taken 87% of my battery!!!! ChatOn isn't even installed on my phone anymore!!! I am not rooted. How can I resolve this?? Anyone? You'll notice in the pic my option to force stop or report are grayed out ad well. I've tried rebooting and it didn't help.

As much as I hate saying this but you might have to factory reset the phone since it didn't do this before.

You can try going into the apps again and see if you can disable the com file sense you know what it is named. I had the same kind of problem with Google + on my last phone.

Noooo!!! Lol. Dammit man I was thinking that exact thing but hoping someone didn't agree lol. What a bummer. I do absolutely love this phone, but it's definitely in need of a software update, it's got some small bugs. Which is a little expected I suppose with new hardware/software but still frustrating a bit.

I tried looking for it apps manager and couldn't even find it. I even have an app installed that gives u the hidden features in 4.3 back to see and adjust some of the permissions on your apps but I can't find it in there either. If it's on the phone I can't find where it's hiding lol.
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

I think I'm just gonna go through with it and factory reset it. It's probably good for it anyway at least once. And most everything is backed up either on the cloud, through an account, or on sd card, just a pain putting apps back and signing back into everything is all. Nah this stinks! Dammit! Lol. I'll report back after the reset and let ya know how it goes.

Battery is back to normal after factory reset. Staying away from ChatOn anymore though.

[Q] &#!!$#!% programs keep installing themselves

I made the mistake of downloading a dumb stupid program that I saw in android market or something that was supposed to give me cool free programs once in a while. I don't know what it was I think it began with an "S" And than my desktop computer notified me of the thing and said do you want this? And I said OK...well now my nexus 7 is bombarded with crappy programs like 3 times a day with real annoying crappy games and junk.
How the #&!! Do I make the $#!z stop besides throwing the whole *$&* thing against the wall?

Besides the obvious (uninstall the junk) you could always factory reset.
Is this something you installed on your computer or your Nexus?
If it was from your computer I'd say change your password as whatever is doing the installing would need access to your account. If it's something on the tablet then uninstall it or do a malware scan (changing your password is still never a bad idea though).

THAT'S WHAT DOES IT. I deleted it last week. And it's STILL installing junk. It installed thru my Desktop somehow with something i downloaded. I don't even remember what it was. Than the next thing i saw was this "MaxSearch" garbage on my nexus7. Ok, i'll try changing the password. Thanks, i'll let you know if it works tomorrow.
I already know it didn't work. Just now it already installed transformers legends. ahh yeah this blows.
Right after changing my password.
And i have auto updates turned off.;
It's screwed. I'm gonna have to revert to factory probly.
Read the reviews of the app. One person says how to remove it. Also flag it as inappropriate on the play store.
I agree. Report the app and leave a 1-star rating so others won't have the same problem

Go to accounts.google.com and make sure you haven't given anything fishy access to your account. It's also possible that it's just sideloading teh app through Unknown Sources, but that should bring up a security prompt (Install/Cancel), so I'm a little doubtful.
Report it to Google, its crap like this that Apple Fanboys pick up on, these dev's should be ashamed of themselves ruining a decent OS.
Nuff Said.
THE HAPPENING IS HERE
I warned you guys. I warned you about the government. You didn't listen. Now look what's happening. NSA backdoors, auto-installing spyware.
You had a chance people,
You could have had freedom.
But you didn't listen, and now you're paying the price.

There are a few things I could have you try, if you were rooted. But since it seems you're not here are a couple of other things you can try.
Go to settings/storage. Click on cache data. Select ok to clear and restart your phone.

Also long press home, select task manager. Go to RAM tab, and clear memory.
Also, are you on the latest update? What browser are you using?
♢NoteIII♢
muchmovies.com movies lag streaming
Thank you for your advice I'm going to try that and yes my phone is updated with the latest software. What is strange is that it doesn't lag on YouTube it's just seems to be there. But it makes me mad because it's a great site to stream new movies and it works fine on my mom's iphone. I am using Google Chrome when I go to try it. Thanks keep up with ttrying to help the new guy.
I'm using the stock browser and it worked fine on the movie I tried. Great quality, quick loading.

Flashlight app isn't lighting up the physical camera flash? See if it requires root access to do so, and consider rooting. Rooting = admin access on your phone basically, good to have if you don't care about warranty

Try a different ROM. Let's when what happen then.
Bad luck! The navigation buttons at the bottom of twrp doesn't work too )':
I don't understand how this happened. There was no damage to the phone. It was completely safe.
Then try to install stock ROM.

Or. Use cwm recovery .navigate using physical button. And try another custom ROM.
It happend once in my s2 skyrocket. Switching it to another ROM helped.

You can try several software things but I am 100% sure its hardware.
Your digitizer is broken and for N4 it comes with your screen. You have to replace whole things.
Offical LG comes at around 100 USD
Guys, good news! The area which was not responding to the touch started working on its own, when I took phone out of my pocket this evening!!
I'm really happy now, thanks guys for replying and giving your suggestions.
I just hope this problem doesn't return

If you searched the net,you saw it's a widespread problem. I guess poor quality and lack of knowledge on Lg part(2,5 yrs ago. I hope they learned by now.

Yea, you seem to be right. Because I kept my n4 with too much care for 2 years if I take out the bumper and screen protectors, it looks exactly like new. It definitely is lg's mistake!
I guess I'll better start getting used to pie controls now ):
Dear folks, I do face the same issue. No cracked screen but some areas wont work. Is it possible to calibrate the screen via adb?
Can anyone help out with commands or scripts to maybe revive my n4?
Kind regards Soldiaz

Are there any reasons to hold off on taking the latest update?

Just in terms of eventual root, or something. It's not going to make much of a difference, or anything?
I'm on 6.O.1 - G930PVPU1APB5
Update G930PVPU2APD3
Its just that I notice it includes "security improvements," and that after updating, "returning to the previous version will be impossible. "
If your battery life is good right now, I wouldn't take the update. Sprint ****ed up the battery life on the GS7E with the pd3 update. I wish I had never updated my phone. I went from 7 to 8 hrs SOT down to 4 to 5 hrs after the update. It is caused by a GPS bug.

I wish. I accidentally took mine a few days ago. Was walking through LA at night, pulled my phone out to check directions, and it was 10% deep into it. I was so pissed, and it was like an hour before I could use my phone again.
Thanks. This works, well worth the buck.

quick question......have you got the "Find my device" app installed on your phone? The google one.
if you do, uninstall it and see what happens. This was happening to me. Mad battery drain. Uninstalled the app last night and battery drain improved immediately.
