Lg v20 vs995 more issues - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Soi know the phone sucks with signal but today i faced another issue. I had my brother call me and it all went to voicemail. Crazy thing is i was able to surf the internet as i was waiting for his call. So again the software is failing. I am not the only one as his wife owns a v20 and told me that when she had it redone and a month later it just acts up. I am also seeing my Facebook messenger is crashing the phone hangs at times and now today ky chrome was not responding. Is there a fix for this software. My v10 dose alot better then the v20 and i heard the v10 has bootlooping issues. Well my v10 is pretty much showing the v20 that its a better phone. So if there is a fix i would like to know and thank you. No i will not go to a asop rom as there is no stock camera to do Manuel controls.

[Q] LG G2 gmail a

Hi,
My G2 (European) was recently updated to Kitkat and I am not sure if immediately after update it started to have this issue or its unrelated. Nevertheless, now if I try to open any file attached to a gmail message, I just get a black screen.
My friend has LG L9 II and just started to have the same problem a day ago. (He doesnt know if he has Kitkat or not.)
Any hints, what causes it?
Also, after Kitkat the phone started to freeze sometimes, it never did before. And of course, it wont play any more embedded Flash objects.
I am through already 10 smartphones at least, but NEVER had a single happy op.system update... unfortunately the G2 got also to be a worse phone than it was before.

Don't mean to scare you, but that is exactly what was happening to me right before going into an unrecoverable bootloop. Nothing I tried revived the device, although there have been some that have been able to. I ended up RMA'ing my device as nothing I did brought it back to life. You might be in a different situation but just giving you a heads up.
*Bump*
Stock 7.1.1 and rooted here. I've been on the official 7.1.1 release for our 6P's since early December, and for the past week or so, I've been experiencing freezing as well. I'd be in the middle of typing in Hangouts, streaming music in the car via bluetooth and Spotify, or just waking the phone up from sleep. For the past few days, I've been getting 3-4 freezes per day.
On rare occasions, I've left the phone alone to settle, and it returns to normal, but more times than not, a hard reset is the only 'fix'; until the next freeze.
I reluctantly wiped the phone, unrooted, flashed stock 7.1.1 and re-rooted all via NRT last night. The phone froze again this morning coming off the charger...
Granted, it decided to restore 528mb's worth of WhatsApp history as soon as I unplugged it (why it didn't restore on charger overnight is beyond me though). Will update if it freezes again.
The phone runs butter smooth with zero issues other than these freezing occurrences though. MO, the 6P is the best all-rounded phone currently available, even if it's a year old already.
Appreciate any help or suggestions!!
That's odd try ex kernel and over clock or try HEBF manager on play store
Quick update. Couldn't bear the multiple freezes per day, so I called Google to ask for help. Apparently I've done everything I can on my end (including a factory reset and updating to the latest firmware), so they sent out a replacement 6P to me free of charge. They'll also be covering the courier/shipping costs for my old 6P too. Fantastic customer service. Kudos to them!! I called them Tuesday morning (20th Dec) Australian time, and received my replacement 6P Friday afternoon (23rd Dec). Very quick indeed
Half a day after setting up my replacement 6P, including updating to 7.1.1, I started getting the same symptoms as my old 6P. Freezing, unresponsiveness, etc. Persisted for another day and had enough. I've since done a full wipe and downgraded back to the final 6.0.1 release, and it's been stable as a rock for 3 days now. No freezes, lagginess, nothing.
So I deduce it might actually be a software issue with 7.1.1, and not a hardware problem. It appears a growing number of Pixel and Pixel XL users are also experiencing random freezes on their new phones running 7.1.1 too...
Looks like I'll stick with 6.0.1 until Google makes a formal announcement and something is done about 7.1.1. I've missed Xposed and GravityBox too, so 6.0.1 is all good. Most importantly, it's stable
Had you ever tried booting into safe mode to see if maybe an app was causing the issue? Maybe a compatibility issue between an installed app(s) and 7.1.1

Thanks for the pro tip. I did consider doing that with the replacement 6P, but the only apps that I had installed were the stock Google ones that came with 7.1.1, WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and SwiftKey. I just assumed if such popular apps were the cause, a lot more people would have pinpointed them as the problem?
I did however read a few users claiming SwiftKey to be the culprit prior to RMA'ing my old device, but even after uninstalling that from my old phone, I was still getting the freezing issues.

Anyone having issues using Snapchat

Hello everyone, I did some searching on what I'm going to ask but it seems as though all I've read were due to rooting and pertained to logins.
I have a new Moto XPE running the stock Sept. 1st Patch. I can log into Snapchat just fine, my issue lies after I'm using the app. Messages won't load in Snapchat and stories become stock on loading as well. On some Snapchat stories that are loading, after looking at a few images, the screen goes black and is again stuck on loading. Eventually the app crashes and sometimes the phone will crash as well to the point where other apps like YouTube just won't open up and the phone will either reboot on its own or require one from myself manually. Has anyone with a Moto XPE or Moto X Play experienced any of the issues I've described?
Thank you.
Holy crap, I thought it was just me, or that I was just going crazy.
Weird thing is I only started noticing any problems at all when I flashed from stock to a few of the various Nougat builds (CM14, then AICP, back & forth a couple times, then RR) which all have camera driver issues. I noticed half the time the camera wouldn't load upon starting snapchat, or if it did, it would take ~10 full seconds to change from the blank black screen, and sometimes if I would flip it to the front camera or vice versa, it'd just hang indefinitely.
That's the primary reason I switched back to stock a few days ago - I use snapchat A LOT and nougat just doesn't have enough cool features to justify one of my most-used apps basically being crippled to the point of not working the majority of the time. But once I restored my stock backup (not the September security update, the one before it) the camera started up fine in SC but I started getting EXACTLY all the problems you described.
The general consensus seems to be that SC is a super poorly-coded app on Android to begin with, but this must be a recent thing as it makes it downright unusable. I'm actually in the process of going back to 7.1.1 because that still works better than what the app's been doing lately. I wonder if it's happening on devices other than the MXPE?

It happened on my BlackBerry Priv too. I just switched over from that device a few days ago
I'm on stock 6.0.1 and I don't have any big issues with snapchat, the only one is that sometimes camera is very dark at start and I have to go to messages and back to camera to fix that

Yeah same here, it can get a little laggy sometimes for me but I just log out and back in and it works fine.
This might not be here nor there for this specific issue, but if you use Xposed/Snapprefs/rooted etc etc...One thing I noticed that REALLY causes a lot of lag with snapchat is overlays. Especially the FB Messenger app. If you have those chat heads on your screen with Snapchat open as well, things are basically unusable until you get back to the home screen and force close both apps. Could be happening without Xposed as well. Just a thought.
On a side note about Snapchat in general- it has always run like crap on every phone I've owned.
Snapchat kept screwing up, even tried the beta. Decided to try Casper and so far it's working great

Audio problems with Nougat

Hi,
I recently updated my phone to Nougat 7.0 and have been having some problems.
1. When I am listening to music using Google Play Music and I lock or unlock my phone, the music sometimes skips for a moment. Not a big deal, but it's an annoyance.
2. This is the bigger problem - my loudspeaker sometimes doesn't work. I first noticed it yesterday because system sounds weren't playing, and also when I tried to play music through the loudspeaker, it was very quiet and tinny and barely audible. It seemed to fix itself once I toggled silent mode a few times. However, this morning, none of my alarms rang, it also didn't make any noise when calls / texts came in. Luckily the vibration managed to wake me up!
I'm pretty sure that it is a software problem as it started happening since upgrading to Nougat, and also I haven't dropped it or had it in water recently. I have not rooted my phone or anything, it is all stock. I've only had this phone for around 6 months. Wish I hadn't updated to Nougat now as Marshmallow was working perfectly! I have since rebooted the phone and it seems to be working fine for now...
Has anyone else had this problem? I have tried searching on xda and on Google and can't find anything. Perhaps I need to send this back for replacement?
First mistake: updated to nougat.
Second mistake: not rooted.
Try to revert back to mm and root to install some audio mods.
My S7 had the same problems with the loudspeaker sometimes it work for some hours without any problems but then the problem comes back. Samsung-Hotline told me the problem is new they didn't hear anything about that!
Factory-Reset
SIM-/SD-Card removed
notthing works for me.
I hope they will start the rollout of 7.1.2 without this problem
Odd. Are you guys on sd variants of the phone? I'm on exynos and had no issues with nougat.

Screen sharing issue

I am having an issue with screen sharing. It has always worked before today. Right now, when i screen share I get a black screen on both of my smart tvs. If i am playing a video I can still hear the sound. Also, if i share to my tv through youtube it works fine. If i share to my tv through the stock gallery app it also displays a picture. If i share to my tv using the stock video app it also displays fine. The issue only occurs when I use the screen sharing app itself to mirror the phone to the tv.
I have tried restarting the phone, pulling the battery, restarting the tvs, pulling the power wire for tvs from wall and restarting tv that way and I also tried restarting my router. I cannot figure this out and was wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and maybe has a fix. Thanks in advance.
Also, my phone is completely stock.
Did you install a security update from Verizon recently? I have an Lg v20 and am having a similar problem.
Sorry, hadn't had anyone reply to the thread so figured it was a lost cause. Im on at&t and yes I do remember getting a security update prior to this occuring. Still havent found a solution.
There seems to be a problem with the latest update for the 990DS as well .
Edit: Yes mine have the same issue after the update
Its odd that there hasnt been more people with this same issue. Im inclined to say its an issue with the last security update because theres 3 of us with similar situations. Just wish there was more info anywhere on the web about it. Either the 3 of us are experiencing an isolated issue or nobody uses screen share.
Just got another security update now. Tried the screen share and sure enough it is working once again.
Fingers crossed
I hope I receive a similar update.
I happen to have two v20’s and one will screen share at full screen and one screen shares at 4x3 with black bars in the sides. Is there a way to fix this nd screen share so it uses the full screen?
LG v20
When screen mirroring apps to my Samsung TV everything all good until I stream netflix, hbomax, espn & tnt. I get no picture/video, only audio and subtitles. Any solution?
I don't recall doing an update and this LG v20 is on T-Mobile network.
