Fingerprint, battery, microfone problems - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. It has been 2 months since i bought my V10-H960A. Since last week, my phone has been not functioning well for some reason which i have no idea about. First, i started getting a battery error when i reboot my phone. It says invalid battery and turns off. After removing sd and sim cards and waiting for a while, it starts working again. But whenever i turn my phone off, this problem reoccurs.
Second, my fingerprint sensor does not works. It was working since last week but its totally gone. I havent done anything that can cause a damage.
Third, yesterday when i received a call, i tried to speak but i realised that the person that was calling me, was not hearing me. I was thinking that there was a problem with the microphone. Then i made a few calls and found out that, when i call someone, they actually can hear me if i put the call on speaker. So i cant be sure if the problem is with microphone or with sth else.
Lastly, my phone hasnt been running fast enough and were overheating during last week, probably caused by the problems above.
Is there anyone that faced any of these problems?

[Q] No In-call audio. Suggestions?

Hello XDA!
First, some background: A few weeks ago, my phone went for a swim. I let it dry for a few days and turned it back on, but the phone wasn't very reliable (time would run slow, half the time I couldn't make calls, and the 3G wouldn't work at all). The touchscreen however was perfectly fine. So I found an eBay auction where it seemed like everything worked except the touchscreen. I bought it, and transplanted my touchscreen onto it.
Unfortunately, while most things work, I don't have any audio coming out of the front speaker, meaning I can't hear people when I call them or they call me, and if I call them, I can't hear the ringing that goes on before the person picks up. I read on some forums this was potentially a software issue, so I reflashed the latest RUU, and got nothing. I flashed KaosFroyo v24 and still have nothing.
My current work around is to wear my headphones all the time with it (which isn't TOO inconvenient, since I listen to Pandora a lot). The microphone works. The speakerphone works (since it goes through the speaker in the back).
Does anyone know if it's possible to transplant that speaker as well? It seems unlikely since I'm pretty sure it is attached to the motherboard...
Thanks!

[Q] Microphone problem with eris. Hoping someone can help with a workaround.

Hardware related bug, hoping to bypass it completely.
Started happening about 2 months ago.
problem: When headphones/bluetooth are not connected, my microphone on the phone will not work. When either are connected, both the headphone/bluetooth microphone are working at the same time. I've been using bluetooth to place calls this entire time, Person on the other end gets a constant echo, if I cover up the phone microphone the echo stops(and they only hear what comes from the bluetooth headset).
I've flashed multiple roms, it seems to me like this is hardware related, but for the life of me I can't figure out how this seems to have got reversed in functionality (microphone on the phone should mute when headset is attached, not unmute)
Anyways, I'm perfectly fine using bluetooth, I never use my microphone on my phone for voice searches (I'm a southerner, it just doesn't work... yall.) i also never record videos. So, anyone know how I can keep the phone microphone muted full time?
That sucks
The same thing happened to my fiance's eris. I tried everything i could think of... its a hardware issue. She also had a problem with her track ball at the same time, it would not scroll down, only up left and right. She ended up getting a new phone, because nothing else worked. Sorry for your luck. Let me know if you find a fix.

Thanks for the response. I'm 100% sure its a hardware problem. If I cant figure out a way to permanently mute the onboard microphone im going to buy a dead eris and just replace the little board with the usbport/microphone. If that doesnt fix it, I will see if it will boot up with that board removed completely. (have a battery only charger already.)
But before I do either, I would love it if one of the genius' around here (no disrespect, some smart folks on these forums) responded with a way to permanently mute it.
10 day bump in hopes that someone knows something that didnt see it. Wont do it again. *crosses fingers*

[Q] Amaze 4G speaker and mic stopped working

The phone was bought new in May and unlocked in June because it's in another country. It came with Android preinstalled from T-Mobile.
The Wi Fi doesn't work, but that's a hardware problem and HTC won't fix it under warranty because the phone was unlocked. NOt a big deal, and not the problem I'm writing about.
Last night the battery died. Today, after charging the battery, the speaker and microphone don't work.
Anyone I call cannot hear me. There is no sound at all on the other phone. No static, Nothing! It's like putting your turned off phone to your ear.
And it is the same when they talk. I can't hear anything.
I took the battery out several times and that didn't help
Did a hard reset and that didn't help either. The phone was working fine until the battery died
does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Same problem
I have the same problem. I'm looking for a solution, otherwise I'll need to send it back. Did you ever find a fix? #frustrating

My HTC Amaze is almost doing the exact opposite. When I make or receive calls, I cannot hear people. They can hear me, but unless I put it on speakerphone, I am SOL. It works with bluetooth in my car just fine but it is a little aggravating to have to keep a call on speaker. Anyone else have this problem? I have done a hard reset, I called TMobile...they said they were unable to help. I have the insurance, but only for lost or damaged. As it was explained to me...TMobile cannot help me in regard to phone but...if I drop it in the toilet or run over it...the php insurance will cover it (with the 150 deductible) When I signed up for the insurance it was explained to me that it was like an extended warranty. However when I called tech support, I was informed that it was not... Help please

[Q] xperia ray, dropping calls all the time.

I'm having a problem making and receiving calls with my xperia ray (it either takes too long to connect, can't connect, or it drops calls when I'm in the middle of them). I have installed android 4.04.
I read somewhere that it could be a proximity sensor problem with these phones so have made quite a few calls since on speaker phone and that seems to be working fine so far. is there anyway to test if this is the actual issue, and a way to fix it?
I have not rooted my phone but was planning on doing it anyway if/when I can fix this problem.
I've had the phone for around abouts a year and a half there have been some other issues but I think they are unrelated (tired battery I think, it gives up within 5-10 hours generally. also had some issues in the past sending/receiving texts but I believe that may have been a network issue.
anyone? the call dropping definitely seems to be something with the proximity sensor as it hasn't occured when I've been using speakerphone. I recall reading about a a fix for this but can't find it anymore....

Vibration issues after a few weeks

Anyone experiencing vibration not working after a few weeks? Mine stopped working again, and is frustrating when you only use the vibrate profile. The only fix is to factory reset the phone, which leads me to believe it's a software bug.
Any other fixes that others recommend? Should I warranty out this phone?

No, no problems here.
Thanks. Just a quick update, turns out my unit was defective. The replacement unit did not have any vibration issues since. Been running the replacement unit now for 4 months now. Working great.
^^ weird because I actually had my LG G5 replaced for a new one because of the vibration issues, and it seemed to be working fine for a few months, but just yesterday, it stopped working, as I was receiving a phone call, the vibration just stopped working. I performed a factory reset, made sure my vibration settings were on, and even tried turning it off and back on and taking the battery out and putting it back in, but nothing. I am beyond upset, If they don't give me a brand new phone this time, I will make sure they hear from me.
