Just got a used v30+. I keep getting many apps stopping. Mainly Google app I believe. I tried a factory reset and still have the same problem. Do you think if I re-flash the official firmware it might fix the problem? Or could it be a hardware issue. Apart from that everything seem to be working fine.

I'd try a complete re-flash of the firmware from a KDZ with LGUP and see how that goes. It's probably something underlying with software, best practice would be to wipe everything and start fresh.
See if there is a update in playstore for android webview. That fixed my problem once

That's what I was thinking. I tried it (re-flashing the version that was already on there) and it didn't help. Still had the same problem. So I dl'ed the latest oreo kdz and flashed that. Still the same problem! I'm assuming that there is a hardware problem with it. So I contacted the seller and they said they would replace it. Hopefully this one will work.
Thanks for the advice!

Hi all. Since I updated to XXLG8, my lock screen sometimes doesn't allow interactions and I need to reboot in order to use my phone. Anyone having this problem? Or anyone know how I can fix this?

I had the same problem, just reinstall the firmware and should get fixed by itself.
Note that by 'reinstall' he most probably does not mean Factory Reset but flashing the same (or a newer ROM) through Odin.
That keeps all your data intact.
Thanks for the answers people. Will try tomorrow

That does not work for this problem. I had this before LG8. Did a full factory reset, new firmware, etc. on LG8. Fine for first day, but started experiencing the problem. I'm also using SpeedMod K1-5.
I think it might have to do with WIFI. If it isn't on, it never locks, at least for me.
Hope you selectively restored only user apps and data after installing new firmware
After I flashed one of the Carbon Rom nightlies my WiFi stopped functioning. It is ONLY working if I'm next to the modem (within 5 to 10 feet). It works on my other devices. I've tried it out at a buddies house and have the same issue.
I've tried this on multiple ROMs since this flash and still have this issue. Any ideas?
Edit: even ROM installs are taking longer. should I try a full Odin back to stock? NAND going bad?

Sounds like a corrupted radio install. try reflashing the radio's. This hopefully will fix your problem.

I assume you're referring to the modem install? I installed the latest again and no go. I may just restore it back to stock with ODIN and hope for the best.

Tried to restore to stock today and that did not fix the issue. I called Verizon, they informed me that a large update is coming out today/tomorrow (4.1.2) and that should fix it. I asked him how this could fix an apparent hardware problem but I guess we'll find out. I've since rerooted. I can't figure this out for the life of me! Unfortunately, as I mentioned to the VZW reps, I can't just use 4G as Verizon doesn't like us to .
I've searched, but I can't find any answers on this topic. My rooted NT stopped allowing any updates on any apps from Google. I thought I had solved it by clearing the cache, and it updated a few things, but that was it and it doesn't help any more. Nothing will update, I just keep getting "error 498".
Entered ˝error 498˝ into Google. One of many results:

Thanks., I did that. Several times. That's where I got the idea to clear my cache. I don't know what the "dalvik cache" is or how to find it to clear it. I can't download "Cache Fixer" b/c nothing will download due to the 498 error.
And I can't find any other solutions to this that both make sense, and are relevant to the NT.
I have no idea how to fix this since I have never encountered it myself. Are you running stock or an alternate ROM? If on CM7/9/10, try reflashing the gApps. Worth a try...
I rooted the thing back in Dec. 2012 when I bought it, and I haven't done anything to the OS since then, so I'm running whatever I found here at that time. Huh. Do I have to revert to stock in order to re-root with one of the new OS's? And, er, how do I reflash the gApps?
Sorry for the stupid questions, this is my first-and-only Android device. And might be my last. Or I may take the stupid NT back to stock and just use it to read, and buy a real tablet now that they've come down to a decent price.

You do not need to revert to stock to flash a new ROM version.
I'd suggest flashing cm-10.1.3-RC1-acclaim.zip (http://get.cm/?device=acclaim&type=RC) and Gapps package dated 20130812 (http://goo.im/gapps) using the procedure outlined at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123.
Thank you. I'll give that a shot.
Hi
a couple of weeks ago I tried to flash a rom to my Samsung S GT i9000 Android 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD.XXJW4, I had root and went into cwm recovery and made a backup first. This is a bit hazy now as it was a while ago and I have tried so many things since then, but I think something must have happened during the back up??. Bottom line is the ROM didn't work and I had to reinstalled the back up (and have done so many times).
I have tried all different Roms from ice cream to CM but nothing works.
My problem is that every time I do a recovery of the backup it really causes problem with the phone.
If I try and install any programme from playstore or market (both via the phone or pc) it immediately closes when I try and open it up saying it unexpectedly closed. Shut down the phone and restart it - yep the app has now gone from the phone. Same thing happens with APKs.
I have tried uninstalling the back up via windows explorer, ADB, clockwordmod recovery a file manager on my phone. Doesn't matter what I do it is always there when I start the phone back up. If I uninstall any apps through settings / applications / manage applications, turn off the phone then back on and they are back.
I have tried to clear it by installing stock roms but the back up and all its files and apps etc are still there. I have tried factory formatting the phone via settings/ privacy, I have tried using the numbers and hashes on the keypad, I have carried out full wipes in recovery and the dalvik cache etc.
I have made further backups but they are deleted from the phone just like the apps.
If I take a photo or video and close my phone down they are deleted.
If I access Facebook and update the news feed to the current date, when I restart my phone it is back to the last thing I looked at prior to my backup.
I think the problem is that the phone is using the backup some how and this is stopping me from deleting it. Something like trying to uninstall a system file on a computer when it is running.
I think I have watched just about every video ever created on this topic and every thread on the internet to no avail.
Bottom line is the phone works to an extent. I can phone, text, use the internet etc but cannot install or delete any apps.
I would be really grateful if anyone out there has any ideas that I could try
Do a complete restore with Odin/hiemdall then reroot and install ROM, its hard to say what happened to your phone, but a compete install (with pit) should fix you right up
Best of luck

When you say do a complete restore.... Do you mean install a stock rom?

you have to format everything(system,data,cache,dalvic cache) using cwm before flashing with odin to get a fresh stock

So in Odin/heimdall you flashed all partitions and pit? And the phone still didn't return to stock? Then the issues you're having sounds suspiciously like hardware, but I can't think of a hardware issue that could cause this.
Are there various stock versions Sammy put out? As in can you try an older/newer one?

Not really, if pit is checked then all partitions should get formatted, but it wouldn't hurt to do so.

That's to all for your replies. I am in Turkey at present on holiday but I am trying your suggestions, I did flash a pit with the repartition box ticked but still no joy. I took some roms out on a usb stick but think I need to try some others. Problem is I don't have a great download speed at present.
After updating my firmware to 5.1.1 lollipop (Pre Rooted) and downloading Androplus (the latest one), my Wi-Fi isn't working every time I try to turn it on. Now why's that? I tried rebooting but of course that wouldn't help at all. Still haven't tested if it can call. But on the bright side, my Bluetooth and my mobile data work. It's just the Wi-Fi. Please help. Thank you.

Have you tried wiping your amd seeing if the problem is still there? That's what I'd do forsake basic debugging.
Take a nandroid backup,
Wipe phone,
Boot phone and test,
Recovery backup.

Oh, sorry! I'll be more specific now. No it's not after wiped my phone. Will a full on factory reset do the trick?
Edit: I'm prepared to loose data sure. I'm gettin' tired of this so this will probably be the last thing I'll do about modifying my phone. This is how it happened, I was trying to update my phone into 5.1.1 using this stock pre rooted firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ck-d6502-03-23-4-0-546-completeguide-t3171219 (D6503)
And after flashing that, I flashed into the latest Androplus Kernel because it's 5.1.1 and after that, I reboot into system and tried testing my Wi-Fi and it didn't work. Same for hotspot as well (of course) but, Bluetooth works very well, and that is how I got here.
I think it's because of my current firmware.

My point is we don't know what you've done to your phone and that's why I suggested factory reset. Have you modified any system files like build.prop? Have you installed xposed?
Take a nandroid backup and factory reset your phone.
If, issue is fixed there is something wrong with your data. You can recovery apps one by one until you encounter the issue.
Else if, issue is not fixed it's either kernel or rom related. Recovery your data from the backup and consider changing kernel or rom.
This will just give you ideas of things to look at.
