UGH my photos that I take with the camera are disappearing! I'm not sure how to replicate it but it might be either when I mount the usb or restart the phone.
Is this a known issue? Is anyone else having this problem? This almost renders the camera useless

also, this isn't just a gallery issue because when I check the DCIM folder with Astro file manager the photos are still missing

I had this problem too. Lost all my family videos and some pics, its very anoying bug... there is thread on google android somewhere, I posted here somewhere in this forum and the same content there. I think that maybe some instalation, but is just my opinion, embased in nothing.
I had several pictures I took disappear a few weeks ago. This was (obviously) while still on 2.3.2. No idea what the cause was, but I agree, they're not anywhere on the sdcard to be found. Very scary.
To be fair, I don't recall which of the three camera apps I use (stock, camera360, vignette) I took them with. I think it was vignette (and yes, I checked its folder). Are you using the stock camera or a 3rd party one?
For the time being, important pictures are being immediately uploaded/shared to my Picasa account.

done that, thx
In my case, my missing pics always reappear after rebooting. Funny thing is my previously deleted pics magically reappear in my Gallery (in a pixelated fashion) whenever my new pics go missing.
thank you for link. hope it gets fixed soon

I switched as well. Loved the HTC, thought it would hold me over past my normal 4 months. I was wrong, lol. Was and is a great phone. The g2 is better in my opinion. But comes with tradeoffs depending on your likes. Boom sound, miss them, but adjusted quickly, and believe it or not, I actually liked and miss blink feed. But taptu is a cool news app that you can incorporate all news you like. Phones are almost same size but yet. 5 difference in screen size. Screen is phenomenal on this phone, battery, forget it, I get average 25 hrs with 4 hrs plus screen time and plenty of calling, 2 push emails, loads of texts. Hard to kill battery. So basically, I was weary as well, made the change, and am very satisfied with this device.
And another one who switched from the ONE. Only regretting it a little bitregarding to HTC's update Speed but overal I'm happy with the G2.
The package what the G2 offers is pretty good and you can't go wrong as long you don't mind waiting a little bit longer for Updates

G2=best phone on the market ATM. But I guess it all depends on what makes a phone best to you. G2 has got everything going for it besides the actual feel. I hate this slippery *****.

After 5 warranty returns (purple camera), at&t offered to exchange my One for another device. I chose the G2. I've been using it for the last day now, and am really contemplating on keeping it. It comes with a great amount of useful software features (notification while charging! Tap screen to wake..and more.) Obviously the audio is not as good, but I don't spend a lot of time watching movies or anything on my phone, so I can get over that!
Battery life seems to be incredible thus far.
I am also pretty happy with the camera as well. The colors look sharp. I think people look a little washed out or cartoonist on the screen in indoor lighting , but the stock app does some processing afterwards correct it. I'd like to post some camera shots to compare since I still have my One. It is Thanksgiving tho, so perhaps tomorrow ?
One negative I will bring up is the auto brightness. I don't know if others have this since I'm new to this device, but auto brightness doesn't seem to work very well, so I downloaded Lux from play store and it works great. So it must be LG 's logic

Auto brightness on stock blows. Very slow and wonky. Lux app removed the problem for me. Even on my last 3 lg devices, the auto brightnes was slow and sucked. Expected it.
Here's a couple comparison pics between the G2 and One. First pic is from G2.
Edit.. apparently you can't add more than one pic using the app.. please stand by while I work out the technical difficulties ?

ok here are G2 vs HTC One photos I just took outside (G2 photo is the first photo) No special settings on either app, just opened camera app and point and shoot..
I prefer the G2 pics. You?
With almost 3500 posts in the Nexus 5 post, I thought it would be cool to start one of these for the Nexus 6.
I was able to get some pretty cool shots with my N5 and HDR+, but it was a lot of trial and error. I was really excited when I heard about the camera improvements in the N6. So far ... I'm REALLY impressed. Here's a few pics I shot at the LA Auto Show.

I have had almost every Motorola Droid since the Original. I was so excited when they announced Motorola was getting this years Nexus. Last week when my Droid Turbo's glass broke again I was givinn the opportunity to have the Nexus. I jumped at it.. Now I'm thinking I made a mistake.. I actually miss all of moto's skin or Moto Blur . This naked android is a nightmare ! First off my Calendar no longer has a search feature( if it does I can't find it. Texting someone who've you've recently call is nearly impossible unless I enter the number manually, I'm forced to use the google camera and google photos. All these years I was lednto believe that the manufacturers skins were bad .. I'm thinking they aren't so bad after all...I'm hopping I can find some exposed mods to help me here I'm having a terrible time making the transition from my Droids to Vanilla android.
They each (AOSP vs manufacturer's skins) have their advantages. For me, I was sick of being many months behind on Android versions.
You'll be able to find lots of tweaks to help. You might also try Benzo or Chroma ROMs.
And I am someone that every non nexus I have had I put aosp on as soon as I could love me some vanilla

Search in Calendar is right in the top level menu, just above the first separator (Schedule...Day...3 Day...Week...Month....Search). Assuming you mean Google Calendar, which is stock.
Click on the contact image to bring up the contact, and the text icon is on the right. Click on the number to bring up a redial menu. Its not labeled or anything, but once you know its super easy.
Why are you forced to use Google's camera? It sucks. I use Snap Camera. Google photos sucks, too. Actually, all galleries suck compared to QuickPic. And I use SugarSync for backup because it copies the photos to a specific directory on my main PC.
And other than maybe the dialer, I used these same apps when I ran a TW ROM on my old S4. The more open API standards of Android generally allow you to use best in class apps no matter what OEM skin is in place. Also...dialers can be replaced, too. I just don't use them enough to care much.

You aren't actually experiencing problems, you're still in the learning phase. Once you have it figured out, you'll be good to go.
I actually like the Droid Turbo immensely. My issue with it was pretty much that it doesn't work on my carrier's network (UMTS/AWS). The international version "Moto Maxx" was very appealing, but hard to get your hands on and really not all that much support.
** I favor, slightly, the smaller screen + bigger battery.
The calendar search has been explained.
Text to a caller is easy; In your dialer RECENTS list, click on the CONTACT ICON at the LEFT SIDE of the log line, and then press the "messaging" button on the top-right of the drawer that pops up from the bottom of the screen. Bang, you're in Messaging and that contact is selected.
Not sure what problem you have with the google camera application, works pretty well for me.
But yeah, photos[+] is a horrid piece of spyware crap that deserves to burn in hell.
You can disable photos by dragging it from the launcher drawer to the top of the screen "info" and pressing "disable".
THEN you can install the proper AOSP gallery, which I've rigged up to install as an external apk;
https://github.com/lbdroid/Android-Binaries/blob/master/Gallery2.apk
OR if you prefer to compile it from source yourself to reassure yourself that I didn't add any spyware to it;
https://github.com/lbdroid/android_packages_apps_Gallery2
* note: compiling that requires NDK
Thank you for the links to a gallery app. I'm gonna trust you and use the first link.. You wouldn't want to spy on my pics unless you like hot blonds and camaros (my girlfriend and my car ). That is all I take pics of for the most part.

I concur with some other folks here, it sounds like you need Chroma. IMHO the best way to describe Chroma is a vanilla version of Android with all of the little niceties added back in.
IMO the google camera has been slightly faster at responding (focusing, snapping, opening, etc) since the update to 5.1 (I have used both stock 5.1 and now cleanrom). Before that I used open camera, and still like it for the features.

Just curious if anyone is disappointed in the v20? I know some have already received their units.
The YouTube reviews are very mixed. Most seem positive, but I'm looking objectivity too. Not just the LG fans. Honesty.
Curious - thanks.
What reviews are you looking at? I've seen 95% very positive reviews.
i feel the screen could have been better.. i like the amoleds
The phone itself I love. There are software changes I could change.
Oh, I do wish there was an LED indicator. Makes it easier to know what's going on from across the room. 2nd screen is hard to read from afar.
I'm just trying to get used to LG again from using Samsung for the last year. I wish the stock launcher was a little bit....more. I used the stock touch-wiz on the S7 edge and Note 7 and actually liked it (I know, I know) and I feel like the LG launcher is a little meh in comparison. Switched to Smart Launcher and all is well there. I do sort of wish the screen was AMOLED, but that said, the screen on this thing is in no way bad. Otherwise, fantastic phone and so nice to be on a proper 5.7 screen again.
Has anyone found a way to schedule comfort mode? I don't like I have to go turn it on and off.

Try Nova. It works well with my v20
I will get mine tonight and will let you know what I dont like. I have a Nexus 6P at the moment and had 4 Note 7 in 1 month. The Note 7 was a great phone from the design but Touchwiz is so slow and laggy it was annoying. The screen of course was gorgeous and the camera was great. The 6P is in general fast but stock android is so blunt. I had Nexus phone for 4 years. The 6Ps camera is slow and the stock camera app is awfully simple. The AMOLED on the 6P is awful (yellow tint and dark). I rather have a good LCD than a bad AMOLED. On the N7 and the ^P battery life was just OK. Nothing to brag about.
I hope from the V20 that the screen is decent, the camera is fast and takes good pictures and that the battery life is decent. I am most concerned about battery life but we will see.

Switch to a different launcher like Nova and then customize it the way you want it to look and that way you can take that look with you from phone to phone.

It is. Even with phone in silent it still makes the shutter sound. Nothing mutes it.
I use Nova launcher prime. I like Nova so much it's one of the few apps I bought gladly.
I'm shocked you can't disable the shutter sound. That sucks. I take pictures of my grandkids a lot and the sound makes them wild! LOL they want to hear it over and over... LOL ?
I guess that'll have to be something once it's rooted and custom rooms start showing up.
My last 2 phones have been Samsung. Galaxy S3 which I kept for nearly 2 years, and now the Samsung Note 4 which I've had for almost exactly 2 years. Before the S3 I was either using an iPhone or the LG 3D phone which I can't remember the model number.
So my dilemma is I read the specs for the v20 and I'm underwhelmed. Then I compare against my note 4 and don't see enough "upgrades"... I like the ticker screen on top, I think that's awesome. I like the wide angle camera but the images look so fish eyed I can't imagine using that for taking pictures of my kids (my main photo subjects) for scenery or artistic shots I'm sure it's amazing. But I'm no photographer, I want good pictures and fast camera response. (and no shutter speed)
I agree with the poster who said a good lcd screen is better than a bad amoled screen. I do wish it was amoled but it isn't so...
Thank you all for the info. Please keep it coming.

Nova is a great launcher, don't get me wrong. I'm just getting lazy in setting up my phone and Smart Launcher lets me customize my phone without having to set up folders and organize things myself. Nova requires so much initial set-up and I just don't have the patience lately.
Back on subject though, the more I use this phone, the more I love it. It sucked to have to give back the Note 7, but this is a worthy replacement and feels so well built.

It's a bit complex but it has a camera sounds options in it: Camera FV-5 I think it has a freebie trial version so you don't have to buy it. (Only reason I got it was to shoot RAW on my Nexus 6. The V20 already has the RAW option baked in.)
---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------
Although, I just thought about this and I'm now curious to see if any of these 3rd party camera apps will work with the V20 since it has all the cameras and not just one front one back.
Do you have the korean version? Korean and Japanese phones have shutter sounds always-on to attempt to curtail "up-skirt" photography.

I'm using the T-Mobile version. With the phone on silent, the camera makes no shutter sound. So it may only be the international version.
