Possibly the same issue. I tried to pay with NFC this morning and it did not work. My headset also has NFC and that works fine.
Also repaired phone for GPS.
Could it also be caused by Android version? I have 10i.

Response received, a NFC can only respond at all NFC items or none at all. I have tried now multiple other things (Samsung phone, BT headset with NFC tag, NFC tag, Sony SmartBand) and all are working fine. Therefore I would say it is a Software issue and not a Hardware issue.
Do you have the possibility to test it with another G5???

Any news?
Nope, had a discussion with them that nfc either completely worked or not. And other problems should be resolved by my bank. I have concluded that it is still annoying for a phone with this price tag, but on the other hand not worth it to return it again especially when they don't know enough about their own hardware

first off let me start by posting this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272011
essentially after searching YouTube,Google, of course here, friends etc....no help in finding an answer to "searching for gps" continuously.
so currently im backing up my app data to my box and going to try a factory reset
but I keep thinking maybe theres a better app out there?
any ideas?
Changing the app isn't going to fix the issue if you can't get a good GPS lock. You're on the right path restoring the phone.
To test the GPS though and speed up locking you can get GPS status and tool box.

Bases on your storied history of gps problems, I'd imagine it's a hardware defect or an efs problem.

What is "EFS"?
thats funny.....Lg says its my providers problem...i am rooted and unlocked but stock rom stock everything....
I sent LG an email saying:
My issue is that even with perfect 4g LTE Reception my GPS tracks me perfectly which is awesome, however when I'm on the move(usually driving) and I'm using the device as a navigation unit, it constantly "searches for signal" . The device will not track my moving location at all. I did do a factory reset and I've recovered my data with the exception of my location settings( thinking something in the old settings is wrong causing the issue). I'm using both Google maps default app and mapquest, I'm using both because Google says its navigation feature is still in beta development.
They replied:
From the description of the navigation problem, it would seem that your network service is not providing the correct data in the signal to allow tracking operations. This is seen in the fact of having the same problems with both versions of the GPS apps on the phone. If only one of the apps had the problem, then it would have been possible for the phone to be the problem. Finally, for the physical differences between these phones, there is a very minor difference in the size of the casing. Hopefully this answers your questions. If you have further inquiries, please feel free to contact our Wireless Customer Interactive Center at 800-793-8896. ^NE

That is a lot of b.s. from LG. Right now your phone is faking your location without using GPS.
If you are rooted and unlocked I am assuming you know how to make nandroids and flash ROMs. Try the fix in this link and let us know how you make out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2278873
I know how to flash to a Rom yes and androids saved my bum seeing as LG has no way to backup their devices....I edited part of the message I sent them and part of their reply. ..they suggested using Polaris office to backup my contacts. ..that's it....
What is efs?

I have an idea to try first, when mine was broke it would show SATs in view but wouldn't lock. Yours isn't even seeing them. This app TopNTP will set up the servers, try as shown in screenshot.

You could start by installing those settings, then see if GPS test apps shows SATs in view.

There is a one year manufacturer warranty on hardware. You can send it to an LG repair center yourself.
Well went to ATT today,the swapped out the Sim cards and that actually made it worse so they called warranty for me and a new device should be here within 2-5 business days

Hi,
My nexus phone displays NO SERVICE all of a sudden. wifi and everything else works. SIM is not getting detected i guess..
I even tried with a new SIM instead of my old one.Nothing WORKS.I tried all options..
Even did the factory reset.But still nothing turned out. When I contacted the google play support team,they said this has nothing to do with phone and this is carrier problem...Is that true?
If it is a problem with carrier,how does it work in other phones??? Please help me to fix this problem.. My whole day is wasted with this now..i want my phone back..:crying:
What carrier do you have?

Yep, Hulu Plus not working here either. I'm running the CM10.2 nightlies on the C6802 in the U.S. Bought the phone on Ebay from someone in Northern California, not sure where he got it.

I'd recommend both of you contacting the developer and say it's not working on the Xperia Z Ultra, period, that'll put them into action quickly. Also, give them a link to this thread, that always speeds things along.

This happened to me when I lost my TA partition. I would check to see if you still have DRM keys under the service menu. If you purchased your phones off of ebay or swappa they have been unlocked and then relocked prior to selling.
Accidentally set up email link for Opera browser only, resetting phone did not work, via Sony Customer support. Did a full reset, in which NFC no longer works for Bluetooth, to connect Sony MDR-10RBT and SRS -BTX500.
Both were working normally BEFORE reset. PCC repair was useless, as is Sony Support.
What is EXTREMELY STRANGE is my DSC-QX10 connected via NFC WITHOUT A PROBLEM, and started PMM app automatically.
Also, had to pair speaker ? manually via Bluetooth, yet cannot do the same with headphones. Both are within close proximity of my mobile phone. When using NFC, phone does vibrate, and tone does sound, yet CANNOT pair Bluetooth devices via NFC.
Right now I'm at my wits end, and would appreciate any help, and support, in this matter.

Finally paired ? headphones with XZU, but I'm still Pissed had to do this manually, as I used to connect via NFC without a problem, until the full reset.
Sony Non-Support is about as useful as ??

Sounds like a glitch. Shouldn't be a problem unless it happens often. If it does, do a factory reset, which is the same as formatting your computer, which you should also do like once a year. It's perfectly normal that things start glitching and gets buggy the more you use it and the more crap you install. Also, if you didn't do a factory reset after updating to the latest Android version, you have yourself to blame. Always do a reset after jumping between OS-bases (4.0-4.1-4.3-4.4-5.0-5.1-6.0).
This occurred AFTER I did a complete factory reset.
It might have taken AFTER powering off my mobile phone.
Not sure, as this is still a mystery to me. As well as NFC working to pair with QX-10, yet unable to with other Bluetooth devices!!

Ha, trade you phones, as mine does the opposite. Sent it in for repair. Unfortunately LG uses ground shipping, so it'll take a week for them to even receive it.
Have you checked the My T-Mobile app to see if the connections optimizer (or whatever they call it) is doing it?
