I didnt at first, but ever since updating to kitkat this constant rebooting problem and slow charging is driving me crazy. Not to mention the other problems. I bought it directly from tmobile. Do you guys no if theres any way i can get a refund for my phone or maybe a different phone from tmobile?

Something probably went wrong because I get better battery life with KitKat, try factory data reset, or maybe you have some errant apps causing wakelocks.
Also disable location services and sync when not necessary as they drain battery,

no my battery life has improved since updating, but it takes foreverrr to charge. Ill charge my phone overnight a solid 6 hours and wake up and itll be hot and not even fully charged! ive tried various outlets, i tried at my friends house too when i spent the night same issue. The phone is definately messed up and i dont even want a replacment becasue i know LG is crap in quality. I had the G2x and had it replaced 3 times! ill never buy another LG phone

Wow, sorry you had such a bad experience, mine charges in about 3-3.5 Hours in reviews too the G2 was said to charge pretty fast. I generally have had nothing but solid stuff from LG even dropped my O2X on pavement like 2-3 times it was fine. LG is bad at updates though.
Whatever phone you do get just don't get a Sony, the same Sony Exmor series cameras in the phones like Galaxy S4, iPhone 4/5/S, G2 take better pictures than the Z1 which shows how bad Sony optimizes software not to mention horrible battery life. In my med school in India in 2007, most of my friends had Sony phones not one lasted 1 year without problems, all now have Samsungs or HTCs.
Constant Reboot - DO a factory Reset
Slow Charging - Use a 5V 2A adaptor. Mine charges in 1 hr from 0
F320L
I love my G2 but i hate that i bought the F320L version..can't find a working custom recovery for my device
My LG G3 is dead.. i live in a country where temperatures can reach over 110ºF/50ºC and it died in my pocket in a very hot day while I was driving..
since then, the minimal increase of temperature makes the phone crash and restart into a green screen kernel crash..
This is a warning to all G3 users.. keep your phones cold or change it while you can..
Do not let this happen to you.
Loving this phone and I have chosenthe 64gb moto g4 plus yay....over the axon 7
One thing that pops up, it seems like the overheating issue has been resolved. Is this true?

actually yes..a bit ! better than before. but now a days heating became an common issue. Nougat update reduced heat ! but device heats up while charging is actually normal. its coz of fast charging ! the device charge rapidly. when the battery gets over heated voltage for charging becomes normal and the rate for charging will also be normal. and that is why till 75% device will charge quickly and after that to reach 100% it takes some time...dont worry be cool
Mine is MotoG4 Plus
it has heating problem in video recording, using internet or playing games....
How it can be Solve???

I bought an LG G6 not so long ago. But I have noticed it is getting really warm when using it. It normally hitting 36-41 degrees Celcius, this is so especially when I am using the camera.
Is this the normal temperature for this phone? Are there solutions to this problem?
Thanks for your replies in advance.
I didnt measure but my phone doesnt get hot. In fact S7 and P10 I had before were considerable warm when using with cam and games...P10 even on 4G.....G6 has an advanced cooling system as I heard nad on that part should be better....Do you use any kind of case? It should help at least you wont notice it. Your temps arent so high to damage your phone...
could be you have a rogue app

Yes. The G6 has a more advanced cooling system and non of this should be happening. My worry is that I got a faulty machine and i might regret in the future.
I will get a case and see the difference.. If it persists I will consider returning.
Thanks

I have been monitoring my usage whenever it starts hot and closed some of the apps that were just running idle and nothing. I also did a factory reset and that did not help as well.
What is your cell signal strength and what radios (GPS? WiFi? Bluetooth? Cellular?) are you using when you get lots of heat?
It may be that you are pumping lots of energy into maintaining a weak connection over LTE, while using GPS and bluetooth. In such situation, you could get warm even if you aren't doing anything CPU/GPU intensive, even with screen off.

sounds like it could be faulty my lg g6 never gets warm unless its working really heard ie installing tons of stuff
Not a problem unless a message pops up saying it's too hot and it must dim your screen. Never had that on my G6 even in direct sunlight or doing VR.
Idk mine never gone to more than 38 degrees... And that was when temperure here in my ****ry were like 40 outside... So actually that is what i like about the phone that it is always cool ? currently @ 25, average 30, max. 34. Soo that's dope for me.

Hi All,
From Past 2 weeks... am Facing Phone Idle Battery Drain...
I have tried everything.... - Factory Resetting, etc....
The problem even persist in Safe Mode also...
Is it a Hardware issue ? or A Clean system Reflash might help ?
PS: My phone is not rooted.
For me after I'm uninstalling the snaptube, all it's turns normal... Maybe you use some app has draining your battery ?(software)

I also thought the same...But I didn't install any new apps other than Pixel Launcher.... And Now...I Uninstalled it.... Still facing the same problem.
I guess it is just the horrible LG software. I also experienced extreme battery drain in standby and could not figure out why.
I decided to flash the Resurrection Remix ROM onto my LG and look at that... Amazing battery life with the same usage and same apps installed.
My battery now drops 2% over night. With stock it was 9-10%.
I know it might not be the answer you are looking for. All I am saying is: maybe the Oreo update will help for Stock solutions.
There are reports out there that show amazing battery life with stock but they often disable a lot of services which in my eyes is not the purpose of a phone. Other than that... Try your luck with Greenify or something like that (could be hard to reach real results here without root though).

Hmm.... But I hav paid 760$ to buy this phone.... Why Should I settle for less ? If its a budget phone...then Ok...but this is a Flagship Device.... I am going to take this to Service Center. These Battey Problems are irritating me.
As far as I remember, that idle battery drain is known issue in Android 7.0 and our precious G6's have 7.0 and probably will never get 7.1 which has this problem fixed, LG rarely releases incremental updates, mostly only releases new devices with newer software (V30 has 7.1, Q6 also has 7.1 and their battery life is great).
7.0 bug causes "Phone Idle" thingy popping up in battery stats almost always on top, sucking up to 1000+mAh of battery in my case so I have to charge the phone almost every single day which is a little bit frustrating considering phone's battery and that it lies unused for around 8 hours every day as I have to leave my phone in locker room when I'm at work. This is the only thing that I hate in this phone.
We have to wait for Oreo... which also makes me a little bit nervous because 8.0 also has many bugs... Yes, 8.1 is right behind the corner but that strange LG update policy will probably halt our phones on 8.0...

Being able to have numerous apps for different purposes downloaded on your phone is what makes our smartphones so good. However, there may be a few that are resulting in rapid Android OS battery drain., without you even knowing about it.
Try These
Stay in Power Saving Mode
Reduce Display light
Try using the App Greenify, helps you identify which apps are causing battery drain, and put these into hibernation when you are not using them, to stop them from lagging your device and leeching the battery

Sorry to burst your bubble early, but October Security Update won't change a thing. I've had it for a while and phone idle is still on top of my list for battery draining.
*fingers crossed for Oreo to fix this "bug"*
