Hello friends, I have a LG G2 D805, and I'm having a strange problem with the screen on my device. Recently I noticed "shaded" on the screen which makes it a possible leak of light, something which is quite strange, I do not know if this will be resolved with firmware or going into a technical assistance of LG. I ask you to be able to solve or guide me on what should be done, I began to notice this when you install "Screen Test" software do "Oleksii Ustenko"
Thank you.
Im having the same issue with a D803. Seems to be caused by some sort of overheating. If someone knows how to fix this please do tell.

Friend, I've been researching and the only answer I found for this was the Burn In, if not the burn in because it was overheating by ALGM until then I do not know.
i have a seriuos issue with this device
3 brand new devices all having the same problem with GPS.
it doesn't connect even for a second
i open gps status and toolbox, it recognizes 12 satellites but can't fixate on any of them.
changed gps.conf to the proper continent and country, still nothing.
could this be bad gps module on all of them?
version is v10a-eur-xx
Any, and I mean ANY Mediatek chipsed based phone has issues with GPS, at least in Europe.
This is the sole reason I avoid Mediatek like the plague.
Just Google "Mediatek GPS problem". There are possible fixes, but you have to try them out yourself.
I have the same problema whith my LG H420...
How can i fix it ?
I had the same problem minutes ago. The views may come from a-gps sinse it didin't detect any signal. The problem is that the 3 screws on the bottom of the phone, where the gps antenna is, get loose. I have tighten the screws and... it worked. Now it find singal and fix on sattelites indoor and outdoor.

Worked for me, on H440N.
When I Lollipop GPS was wrong , since I upgraded to MM GPS has improved a lot , however, often use the app " GPS Connected" to fix in a stable satellites
I tried everything but it does not set the satélites !
3 screws were tight !
But even then I squeezed more !
what can I do ?? :crying: :crying:
I have tried "EPO Tools free" by eben80 and the connection and stability of GPS is better
Rats, I have the same issue with my h440n ... it used to work now and then before ... like half the time. Recently it sorta worked 1 out of 10 times and now it seems dead completely. Maybe that's due to the fact that I dropped it seriously multiple times and recently even cracked the digitizer big time. I'm NOT with Mediatek so I should be fine, but I'm not. Has anyone else with the h440n had this issue and resolved it successfully? I'm trying to find sth on ebay but other than this

I cannot find anything else as a spare part. Not even sure if that one includes a gps module ... just says speaker and antenna ...

The trick with tightening the bottom 3 screws, close to the speaker, actually DID help me. I tightened them quite a bit and that seems to have resolved the issue for now. Big ups to whoever it was that came up with this super easy fix and damn LG ... poor build quality, still an ok phone though, for the bucks.
EDIT: After some testing - the fix worked, as I said, but GPS signal is still somewhat poor. It is enough to get you from point A to B, in a way, but the signal keeps on dropping. It simply won't lock to any satellite gps, constantly loses connection and reconnects again, and then the same again. I've read there are some apps that can help with that. Will try out some. If anyone has a solid one that fixes this, do mention it.
We need to fix it soon, or we forget Pokemon Go!
:crying::crying:
This did work for me

Where exacly have you put tape? Can you show photo of cover?
Hello there,
I'm facing GPS issues for months now. Problem is that my GPS doesn't get lock.
I tried software fixes. It worked for several weeks but finally GPS issues wasn't gone.
I tried hardware fix (removing the back case and do the paper trick on the GPS plugs). It worked again for several weeks but GPS fix is now really really difficult (between 5-15 min) and I'm losing fix often.
Now, I'm wondering if there is a real hardware fix to definitively repair my GPS. I plan to buy new D802 parts. Which one will help recover my GPS ?
I saw :
- Antenna part (link) : I think it's only antenna for phone and maybe FM radio
- Back cover (link) : It's probably this part that helps GPS fix (since the GPS plugs are connected on this part)
Any idea to help fix my GPS ? Thanks

Hi guys i found something so i wanted to share with you.
I have lg g3 d858-hk i suffered very poor gps signal and always didn't have a good gps fix . Navigation was so hard and unreliable at all. I tried every thing and every app and every software fix but nothing worked. I saw the video lg g3 gps corbetura fix . It was interesting so went for a try but it didn't work at first. What i did after was that i tried again but this time i elevated the pins a higher distance and tightened the screws of the covers very very hard . After that gps is working even gets a signal better than other phones. It wasn't software . Apps won't solve your problem also. You have to try this .
Don't forget to tighten the screws or it may not work.

The GPS stopped working on my G6.
I've done all the usual diagnostics and am convinced its a hardware problem (I dropped it a while back bad enough to crack the screen, which might be the cause).
I've found loads of info on GPS for the G5 but nothing at all for the G6. I took the back off and had a look around but nothing leapt out at me (I didn't go as far as removing the motherboard - yet - as I dont have any replacement thermal paste).
Does anyone know where I should try looking ?
