LG V10 seriosly HARMED ! And I need help.. - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there everyone,
I was glad getting my LG V10 since it was released, getting a professional camera options with 2 front cams and a secondary screen (i have never thought its gamish).. WOW !
To get to the main topic why I am posting here,
My V10 performed perfect ! Untill a sudden day game and everything was changed.
I cann't figure out what was the main reason causing all these issues to my V10 because many things happend in when it got issues and I can't make sure what was the main reason.
So,
1- after using my phone for more than half of an hour, i start noticing shadows on the screen of items that usually stays on screen like the clock on the top right corner, when i go to a screen that hides the clock, i can still see it but with low opacity, leave the phone a bit and here, shadows are gone !
2- HUGE over heating issue
3- HUGE battery drain issue
4- with phone is hot, and i open the camera or snapchat, i notice some white parazites (like the one shows when trying to take a photo for a tv screen) and blurry areas are like damaged pixals
5- when i close the phone, it white color or maybe an over brightness blinks for a half of a second, then it locks off normally
6- many other problems not so important the mention
The biggest suggestion I have is that the problems was here after i updated from android 5 to 6, or because of a possibly damaged charger i used.
Can any body tell me if software may cause such a problem ? If yes, is it possible to downgrade android version on V10 ? And do you know how to downgrade it ?

Sounds like part of the problem are LCD burns... From what I read they go away after awhile. May even be covered by warranty if not...

happens to my v10 h960a , the icons displayed for a long time then when you close the screen its still there like a shadow .an for the battery drain you need to disable or uninstall as much running appsm as possible . even when i disabled loads of them 50+ apps are still running with nothing left to do but root an customize the phone yourself or custom rom because you'd be waiting on lg for months to update .

Yeah sounds right.. But what about the shadows problems ? Any solution so far ?

The icon shadow i noticed lately but it is gone
The battery problem you can go to developer option and show cpu usage to see if there is a particular app that drain battery and you can install greenify and enable aggressive doze it will help the battery life
And for the snapchat camera i see the problem when i'm in a white neon light
But the normal camera doesn't have this problem

Why don't you backup your phone (LG even gives us an app to do it) and factory reset it, to see if your problems are still there at stock ?

i haven't tried any custom roms so idk if its a software issue . if it still happens on another rom then id believe its something you'd have to get used to..

for me sometimes it's the same - phone hangs up, then the pixel shows and when it disappears, phone still is hanged and after some seconds i can continue use my phone. so, no rebooting for me.
(the pixel is cyan - colored).

If your phone freezes/restarts on a stock non-rooted ROM, then RMA it.

I had it too sometimes. It's normal in my opinion.
But if you want you can try to get a replacement.
Backup data and factory reset is first step .
jje
software bug. I used to get it in GB roms, but after a bit of testing it seems it's gone in XXKP8 (4.0.3). either way imo it's too minor to warrant a replacement.
@lonathe is the problem still there in your device? or has it been solved by updating to ICS???
@JJEgan i even flashed a new rom

[Q] Galaxy S2 issues...

This is my second Galaxy S2...first one had a defective screen (white spot on gray colors), now I'm having issues with this one...
While playing games (any game pretty much), randomly the game "reloads" (as if I went back to the home-screen and then returned to the game, which in some cases pauses the game after the reload but in others the games just close themselves).
I'll be honest, after all the good things I've heard about this device I'm really confused how did I end up with 2 phones with issues this big (both were brand new, though the first one was on the store's display-shelf) =/
What I've tried:
Resetting the factory settings
Updating to the latest ROM available for my area (2.3.5 Vodafone Spain)
Switching to a newer ROM (2.3.6 Open Germany)
Problem still exists.
Could this be a battery problem? (the battery I have is still from the first phone so I can assume it's defective aswell, but wouldn't that restart the phone itself rather than cause the issues I'm having?) That also crossed my mind when once a battery widget I use dropped 20% during a phone restart...
Any ideas? Something I should try?
I'm really desperate with this issue since "no gaming" on this phone pretty much makes it useless...
Thanks in advance for any replies.

You have to change the screen timeout delay and or any timeout delays example your screen pattern or password. This is not a battery problem. The battery dropping 20% you obviously changed the current battery in the phone to a different 1. If you have to do this just clear the battery stats in CWM.
EDIT: There is nothing wrong with your phone its working perfectly

You're so right - absoluetly pointless device without games. Anyone would think it's a phone if we weren't sure - thanks for the clarification.
I'm going to buy a DS for my telephone needs.

Tried changing the screen timeout today from 30 seconds to 1 minute, the problem still remains (no passwords/patterns are in use), while playing Asphalt 6 it randomly re-loaded again.
Just to make sure you didn't get the wrong idea, the issue is not that the display turns off (phone lock), the issue is while it's in use.
Did I miss doing something in your instructions?
CWM = clockworkmod? Doesn't that require rooting the phone? (mine is unrooted, only used Samsung official ROMs on it)
Can you give me the steps needed to clear the battery stat? (unless it's displayed right on the menu, then I won't need "tutorials" o.o )
Thanks in advance.

People don't buy a 450€ phone just for calls or internet. Phones were good enough for calls/internet/videos/photos 4 years ago.

Please help me!!! If possible!?

Hi, I bought a ZTE K92 (AT&T Primetime) tablet new and unlocked on eBay back in June 2018 for $149 and did not open it up or turn it on/set it up till just yesterday (10/6/18) because of a move to a new residence and I kinda forgot about it since I do have quite a few other devices and it was packed up in boxes I just never got to unpacking until recently. Anyways... I was hoping for a good experience since it had received good reviews and seemed like it was a fairly high speced tab, it is a nice device, unfortunately, at&t screwed it up with A LOT of they're bloatware apps, one named as "device help" continually reloads an icon on the home screen EVERY time I unlock the home screen! I've removed it a kajillion times and tried like hell to disable it but it's greyed out, tried to remove at&t associated files through my file mgr, but to no avail since I don't have root access. BUT... These are minor problems!...
MOST DISAPPOINTING/DEPRESSING is that I have *thin black/grey (depending on the background colors being displayed) lines on the entire screen/display, in normal (vertical) view mode the lines are *horizontal*, in landscape mode the lines are *vertical*, AND... they pulse on/off at a steady rate , as if it was related to the clock but at a slower rate, approximately on for 2 seconds, then off for 2 seconds continuously.
It has done this since first starting the tablet up new out of the box!
I have searched hell and high water to find the cause and or a fix, I've tried apps for screen issues, I've tried restarting, I've tried YouTube videos on how to fix, but nothing has worked and what's worse is i have not been able to find ANYTHING related to my exact problem, only problems with flickering or colored lines on they're screens!
The closest thing I found in relation to my exact problem was certain screens made for Lenovo tabs/laptops, but I don't think the ZTE K92 tablet has the same display as those devices?!?
I have not done a factory reset or a partition wipe as I don't think it will solve the problem.
I DO NOT really want to take the tablet apart to mess with the screen ribbon cables!
It's running 7.1 nougat stock, and I have dev options enabled/on, I've tried different settings under drawing and hardware acceleration settings but it had no effect.
I was wondering if there's a way I could get the tablet back to marshmallow O.S. for a fix, but again, I don't think that would solve the problem, I'm pretty sure it's a hardware/setting or calibration issue.
I did not find or attempt any firmware updates as I'm worried if I do and it doesn't solve the problem, I might not be able to undo the update, and I'm a firm believer in NOT updating, a don't fix what ain't broke kinda thing, yeah I'm old school.
In my opinion, I think it is a screen digitizer issue and I honestly don't know if there is a fix for this AND if I could find a *qualified* technician to fix it!?
This is really very annoying and sucks!
Is there not a single sole through XDA that knows about this type of problem AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, does anyone know how to fix it!?
P L E A S E ! ! ! This is such a shame for this tablet as it is a really nice device.

Smartphone Screen

Hi there everyone, hope someone can give me some explanation.
I will not ask about technical poblem,its more likely about common problem but I didnt find the answer, so the point is, is it okay for my smartphone screen is always on for hours? What I meant is always on for full screen on apps not samsung feature always on.
For example I'm a traveler so I use google maps etc for my direction guidance,my phone screen will always on while navigating for almost 2-3 hour if there's no problem on the way, if there's a poblem I will played some games or watching movies while waiting, that's a total of 5 hour screen time continously for my phone.
To sum up, is it okay for my phone screen is active for 5 hour running apps,games & watching movie continously? Btw I'm using Xiaomi Mi Mix2S. Any answer will really be appreciated, many thanks..

The main disadvantages of keeping your device on for hours is the battery drain problem and heating of device
This may reduce your processor speed by eating up the RAM's memory however if you clear cache/davlik cache once in a while it may not be an issue
You are also advised to factory reset after a period of few months to avoid any lag related issues
Talking about the hardware it may become an issue in the long run but as of now it will be working fine
Apart from these you may have health problem which are not discussed here being an Android forum
Hope my information was helpful:fingers-crossed:

Hi milkyway3
Battery drain problem is inevitable, however my device doesn't feel hot at all, Xiaomi had done a great job with their phone.
Bottom line is, I'm concern if my usage style to my phone can effect on the phone, such as the screen black out or the phone go died on me considering I'm often in remote area which will be a big trouble if my phone go died on me.
Well hopefully for now it will be working fine like you said:fingers-crossed:
Any other input will be highly appreciated, thanks & peace.

If by any means your phone screen gets black out then as per your usgae it would be most probably due to a software issue
In case of such an emergency you can always keep a pendrive handy with you and a zip file Firmware of your device in the pendrive thenafter if anything as such happens you can install your firmware back via a Custom Recovery and everything would be fine
You can Google search for how to install custom Recovery and stock firmware of your "device name"
I recommend you to try it out once or a few times so that when you get stuck up in an emergency you would be easily able to use it
Note: This will factory reset your device
But at least you will be saved from such an emergency

milkyway3
