Screen sharing issue - LG V20 Questions & Answers

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.

Me also, was using Firmware 0202 and he was Rooted.
Rooted. Latest firmware. I've only had freezing when playing The Walking Dead. I have not experienced it with anything else yet. I use MOJO for 1080 movies, streaming, playing android games and emulation, surfing etc. without any issues with those.
I got bad freezing yesterday tried different things fans and stuff was getting freezing while streaming on XBMC and downloading from the play store so today I decided to have no fans disconnected the Ethernet cable just used WiFi been streaming all day and have downloaded big games from the play store and it hasn't crashed yet

I heard about this mounts ago, so why have Mad Catz not fixed this BIG problem yet with a Firmware update???
I think because it's a hardware problem, why else would they not fix that problem with a Firmware?
Rooted latest firmware.
My mojo also locks up while playing Walking Dead and pauses/freezes while downloading from play/app store!
Wifi seemed better for a while but eventually got pauses/freezing on wifi as well.
I have had a support ticket open with Mad Catz for a while now and so far they are blaming it on software
and keep asking me to reset/clear data.
I have asked for a replacement unit to prove it is not hardware but have had no response!
I have two Mojo units and have never experienced any type of freezing issue such as you gentleman (or gentlewoman) speak of. Perhaps you received a bad batch?
So I have recently been experiencing more freezing. First only noticed it when I played Walking Dead as stated above. After a couple of episodes of freezing on that game I just uninstalled it and moved on. More recently after using the MOJO for streaming shows from apps I've been getting the freezing and it will make a humming noise when it freezes. I have noticed this both on a wired connection and wireless. I've also experienced the screen going black while playing a video, but you can still hear the audio. This requires exiting to the home screen and going back into the app and starting the video again from where it left off. Ticket submitted today. I like my MOJO, but this is not acceptable.
Have u still had the Ethernet lead in when u where on WiFi pull the lead out completely mine freezes when the lead is in but I don't get any freezing when I keep the lead out and just use WiFi give it a go
I discovered that my MOJO was freezing in Walking Dead due to the "GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys" app! If I do not hide the softkeys it doesn't seem to freeze. I have tried "full!screen" (I don't like to see the softkeys while playing games) and it hasn't frozen/locked yet. The only problem I still have is the pausing/freezing when downloading from play/app store. It is better on wifi but not perfect. I prefer wired!

I have the lead out and have still had the freezing. Everything works great on my Wi-Fi right up until a freezing episode occurs during streaming.

I also thought it may have been the GMD Auto hide so I uninstalled it and installed "fullscreen". I have had freezing with fullscreen installed as well. It seems to happen randomly during streaming. I'm going to keep testing things out and will probably try The Walking Dead again. I may try a factory reset at some point after I finish playing GTA III if it's still occurring That game has run perfectly though.

Another app that requires root and does modification to the default user interface. Guys, be careful regarding apps that require root access. If the mojo is not on the supported list for any of these types of apps that actually modify the interface, I would say to proceed with caution. Root is a powerful thing.

Agreed my wifi is dead locks webpages if it's on with ethernet in,i guess it's a conflict of the m.o.j.o probably saying wifi ethernet wifi ethernet wifi ethernet forever and can't decide so just [email protected] up in a timeout (hangs).Not tried on wifi only yet though must have a go at that,possibly could be the update messed the wifi up on root or on both none root and rooted devices?
I haven't had any recent freezing issues during streaming. I have gone back to ethernet with wifi turned off and seems to be doing ok. I unplug the unit every couple of days.
I have one really weird issue. It only occurs when streaming video, such as from HBOGO, never when playing games. I will be watching and the video will go black. There is still volume, but no video. Hitting the volume button on my tv remote brings the video back immediately. I only found out the fix by trial and error as the MOJO controller won't bring back the video, only the TV remote. Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this? HDMI issue? It happens randomly and will happen multiple times during a show. Sometimes within a few minutes of starting a show, other times it takes a bit before it will do it.
no more freezing
Just like to report that I have now been going a few weeks now and have had no freezing what soever since I stopped using Ethernet really glad now I didn't send mine of working like a charm

Your not using a mouse by any chance?Or leaving the mouse cursor on the top black area of the screen,as on my unit if i leave the mouse cursor on the top bar from time to time i get intermitent flickering (black screen/normal screen) or the screen just goes solid black.So i just place the cursor anywhere but when i am using the unit and it does not happen then.

Yeah, I get that too, only on at the top and it's only a few pixels (hoz lines), just blanks out the display.
not sure what's going on there, just figured it's the TV which has overscan issues anyway.

No sorry, I don't have an ouya.
Re the jetson tk1 deveoper board, I don't see why it can't run android, I'm sure someone will have a androind rom for it.

[Q] Sound Lag

Hello,
I am getting a 1 second sound delay effecting menu and all apps after the device is left on over night, tried factory resetting and with and without sleep mode. Has anyone else experienced this issue or have a solution for me?
Thanks
I was going to say the same thing. I have random one second lag in YouTube (rarely), BSDroid (always), but not in Plex or Kodi. The problem is fixed by pausing in YouTube and jumping forward on BSDroid. It's a big pain as these issues don't affect the chrome cast I have on the same TV and network.
I don't have to wait, it's pretty much out of the box. I have tried stock 5.1.1, rooted 5.1.1, CM12 nightlies, and all AOSP roms available. I feel like it's an issue with the Google Cast app? I'll try 5.1 and see if the situation changes tomorrow.
I haven't even bothered rooting mine yet, as this issue goes right down into the system. Even moving around the menu their is a 1 second delay in the sound. Only goes away with a reboot.
I think I may have found my issue, it seems that when I put the TV into PC mode to fix the overscan I get this sound lag after the TV turns off and then back on again. still troubleshooting it though.
Waited a while to get some new nightlies out and still the same problem. Tried 3 different TVs, all casted audio is delayed and has to be reset. Guess i have a junker now

Flicker / Loss of Signal / Handshake issue?

Hi all,
after searching for weeks after getting my Shield TV I have been trying to figure out a problem that is driving me insane. I have a Vizio M65-C1 with the Shield plugged into HDMI 5 (fully compliant).
My problem is that at entirely random times ( about once every hour or two) the Shield will "loose sync" with the TV for a split second, and the screen goes black before coming back and continuing on perfectly fine like nothing happened at all. This happens in any app and the surprising thing is that Netflix doesn't pause when this happens ( which I thought it did when there is a signal issue due to copy protection? correct me if I am wrong please... )
My question is, has anybody else ever heard or seen this with the Shield TV? I had my Xbox One on the same port for a few months before the Shield and it never had a problem, albeit it only ran at 1080p. My main thing I am trying to figure out is whether this is a TV issue or a Shield issue.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
I have the same issue, but with the M55-C2 and the Nvidia Shield. I'm on firmware 1.3.15UHD. The Nvidia Shield does not drop out when connected to my two other TVs, which are not 4k.
Others are having this issue as well.

FUUUUUUUUU thank you SO much for responding. At least I know where the problem lies now. I have literally been scouring for weeks. I have no idea how I missed that thread.
Well the thing that sucks is that this is seemingly out of my control to fix then :/
EDIT: Apparently you copied the link to this thread Has anybody been able to workaround this for now do you know? It's not super annoying, but hardly ideal either.
EDIT 2: https://forums.geforce.com/default/...-hdmi-disconnect-reconnect-problem/?offset=25
Apparently this is definitely a problem with the firmware. Searching handshake with that firmware version got me here.
Nvidia told me to change the refresh rate to 59.9hz as a temporary solution. So far so good
Ditto for me... Same model TV.. Same issue.. Will try setting to 59.9hz to see if problem persists. It's annoying when it happens in the middle of a game ..
Update: Changed the setting last night and the issue seems to be gone.. Thanks for the info !

Miracast not working

Hello
Newb here. Miracast on lg v20 no longer works.
I was casting to non-smart tv with screenbeam2. It worked great for 2 weeks then...once my v20 said connected screen on tv goes black. Returned screenbeam2 2x tried on new in store tv, Same results. V20 says connected with black screen on tv. Miracast no longer works. I did factory reset and no casting apps on phone.
How can I fix this?
Thanks
Al
Did you update Android recently?
My LG V20 started going to a black screen and I'm wondering if it was the update that installed earlier this week.
I just updated my phone and now it won't screen share to my TV.

Miracast not working after V20 update
The lastest update makes my screen go black when Miracasting. I called Lg and screenbeam, Lg saying a fix is coming soon. No time frame was given. It has worked twice since the update just by dumb luck. Im pretty pissed because this is how I watch tv. Who quality controls these updates forced upon us.
Same here....updated to V10h-TWN-XX my h990ds and miracast doesn't work anymore to my Sharp TV. It is detected and get connected to TV but TV shows black screen (also for me it worked by luck just for few seconds). On previous firmware release it was working perfectly!....Hope LG fixes the bug soon!!!
Thanks God. I thought i'm the only one who suffered this. So, LG promise to fix this issue right? it's frustrating, i use miracast almost everyday
I recently installed the november security patch update. Does the update that cause this issue? Bcs it was working fine before i updated.
Yes the update causes it. I have noticed if a enable the hdmi controls and connect to miracast while viewing another input, I have had luck getting it connected. Some days it takes several tries and other day it connects right away. To enable hdmi controls you must do it from the screenbeam configure app.
This is going into the third week of this bull****. I suggest everyone call Lg and keep applying pressure. Go unto there facebook and twitter pages and complain. Im demanding another phone if thos continues pass Thanksgiving.
I can confirm the same is happening to me
I have been having same issue as well. Contacted lg and was informed I needed to send in my phone for servicing. Explained I'm not the only one experiencing this problem and forwarded this link to lg. The lg rep said she would escalate the information to the proper people. Hope it helps.

Was this an official OTA update? My H990ds however still shows no newer version available, miracast not working.
The system update I received for my V20 is #VS99518A. Hope this helps.
---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------
And yes, it was an official OTA update.
Mine didn't worked also just installed new system update version 18A and miracast work flawlessly again.
I think the issue is not with lG. I am able to connect my assus Zen phone max and MI A1 both. The issue with OP5. miracast connects for a second and disconnects immediately I get a pin number displayed in the Tv asking me to input it in the device but there no option as such in the device.
