Ok, apologies if this is old news, but didn't see. But I've just updated my O3D OTA in South London, UK. Not that it would make a difference but I'm T-Mobile in case anyone intereted.
Im having random restarts since update. Anyone else having this problem?

Yes some people complain about restarts like I. I install bootlog uptime and i discover that phone restart every few days, mostly when i'm not watching
I had that problem in the beginning but after a factory reset it stopped doing that.

Mobile Phone Support: We are expecting the Gingerbread version of Android to be available no later than November. The faults that you have experienced isn't a known issue unfortunately, I can only suggest that you continue to check the support tool for upcoming updates.
from lg phone support
I've not noticed any restarts as yet, though only been few hours. Not sure if it makes any difference but the only people I've seen reporting this prob are those who updated manually.
Would be nice if LG listed a change log, obviously there is the 3D converter, which is cool but I'm not sure it's as good as the native stuff as people suggest, though need to play with more. I was actually getting happy with my battery on V10D, so will see how this compares over a few days,. Other than Flash Player settings not sure if anything else has been added/changed....?

Yes i am having the same problem,i have reinstalled sw twice and its still doing it.
Sent a message to LG about it and they dont want to know about it and blame the problem on the carriers..
I have to say my initial impression of the battery life is negative.
I went to bed with the phone almost fully charged, and as I do every night I disabled internet, wifi, GPS and refreshing and and waking up this morning my battery is 67%, that's really poor considering I was getting about %5 drop before.
Guess I will see what it does during the day, though I'm now worrying it won't last till the work day!

This firmware has problems with Wifi. On an 'n' network, the phone keeps rebooting. On a 'g' network I get some reboots. Turning Wifi off solves the problem, but sometimes it's impossible to turn it back on unless you reboot...
It's a shame because the battery life with this firmware is finally 'normal' for a smartphone: 24 hours vs 7 hours before that.
My wifi is on all the time but is set to switch off when the screen is locked.
I'm not having problem at all with the phone and to be honest it's much better than before.
It seems to be running more smoothly and I can see that the battery management has improved a lot!
I'd say that I'm having the same number of hours that I had with my iPhone 4 doing the same stuff that I usually do before a recharge. So, at least for me the update has been a good thing.
Hopefully will get GB sooner than later.
I also must add that right after flashing 10k the battery was pretty bad and with the rebot problem.
After a factory reset the reboot problem was solved and the battery became super.
cheers for the tip.
What sort of data gets lost/reset on a factory default?
I presume everything gets wiped with a factory reset. So my question is if its possible to backup application settings WITHOUT rooting my phone?
Everyone seems to recommend Titanium to backup settings but I do not want to run the risk of problems with the Gingerbread update by rooting my phone, but I also do not want to lose my game progress either.
Its a shame there is no option to sync all application settings to Google servers, considering one of the huge advantages to me is that the contacts and calendar do exactly that.
I've downloaded 4 times now over wifi and every time I get an invalid software package notification and it will not proceed.
I'm on stock rom (rooted) with no Rom manager gubbins.
Strange, anyone else have this please?
I'm looking but my phone says i'm upto date on V10D??

Open LG's Mobile Support and go to "Customer support > Support Model" check for Orange and you will see the version that i available for you.
The last time I saw, Orange was stuck with v10D and T-Mobile with F.
UK and Carphone are on K version.

Yeah you can do it using the KDZ file or rooting and flashing with clockwork recovery.
Sorry for being a Noob I've looked but can't find a guide thats for a real noob. Only been running Android for 6 days? but the 3D convert was the main selling point so if someone could help or link I would say a big thanks.

I updated my G2X when the Gingerbread version first came out. I just noticed that it still automatically rebooted itself twice last night while I was reading. The G2X was right nest to me and I heard the T-Mobile tone while it rebooted. Has anyone experienced this? I thought this update shall fix this bugging issue. I also notice the battery drains faster. Anyone knows how to root it after gingerbread update? Thanks.

Yup, go to the privacy menu and use the option.
The simple act of doing a reset does a lot for a smart phone.
I had an Iphone 3g where after 4.2.1 the solution to speed was to do 2 factory resets in a row.
Some people will return a laptop because they don't want to do a reboot.
------------After the reset, go to the marketplace and the first thing install the T-Mobile My Account app. The original version is problematic and can lead to buggieness

If you return a phone to Tmobile before doing a factory reset to see if it solves your problem then you simply don't value your time. A factory reset takes all but five minutes. If you call Tmobile you will have to wait for them to ship you a phone, and when it arrives it will be in "factory reset" condition anyway. If you go to a retailer and pick a replacement up, it too will be in the same condition. So if you are going to get a reset replacement, everyone would be wise to try a reset before rushing to Tmobile.
I had the same problems with GB after the update- I didnt do a factory reset though.
Moved to Eagles Blood and seems like a much more stable and cleaner rom- havent tested enough to see if it reboots or not though.
To root, flash clockwork mod recovery using nvflash and install a rooted rom. There's a rooted version of gb stock out there, or you could be adventurous and install one of the many custom ones we have.

Return your broken phone ASAP. Phones should not randomly turn off or reboot. It is broken. Do not try to fix a broken phone on your own. It will result in nothing but headaches. Take it back now!
Yeah my replacement phone still randomly dies, I'll come back in a few hours and have to do a battery pull. It doesn't reboot like the old one but it does die more.
Should I get the replacement replaced?

I ran Xboarders OTA GB with no tweaks since it came out. I then switched to EB 1.07 and had a ton of issues. I then returns to Xboarders OTA tweak and it was flawless. Now I am on to Weapon G2x.
Like I said, I really think a good scrub down and wipe, i.e. factory reset does wonders, at least folks should give it a try.
I absolutely agree that theres a good, actually great batch out there, I have NEVER had a single issue with my phone and its bone stock on 2.2.

Purchase at eBay does not affect 1-year warranty.
Hey guys, so I just finished up changing my infuse over to Legend 2 ICS edition and I've been playing with it for about a week and I'm having a rather large issue. Whenever I leave the gps ability enabled so that my apps can find where I am the phone has a tendency to dump battery life like there is no tomorrow but worse than that it stops sending and accepting text messages randomly while the rest of the phone continues to operate. There are no warning signs so that I know this is happening and I have to reboot the phone to get it to work again. If I leave the gps feature off this is not an issue however, this is rather useful to have running so that my apps all work. Any idea how to fix this problem?? Thanks for your time.
I've been running legend 2 for almost a couple weeks and legend before that, my gps was buggy at first-it wouldn't lock on to my location. I did a complete wipe and reinstall, then let the phone boot up and let it settle for a while before I did anything else. Haven't had any problems since

Thanks a bunch I'll try that out and get back to you on if it works or not in the next couple of days.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, work had me pretty tied up for a while. Thanks for the help everything seems to be working fine for the most part now. I need to reboot every once and a while due to overheating but I think thats just the fact that the phone is adjusting to the new ROM. Thanks again for the help.

Hmmm, the phone shouldn't be overheating at all, do you do any tibu system restores? I've had an app cause an overheating problem before. One thing I've learned is when you do allot of flashing, checking out different roms or themes, its good to just do an odin or hemdall flash back to stock that has repartitioning.
It gives you a fresh start.
TiBu
I have done TiBu on the phone however I did have to flash it back to stock with odin partway through flashing this rom the second time because I bricked the phone, I'm still at a loss because I need to restart the phone usually once a day because it stops accepting and sending text messages without warning while everything else still works. It's kinda weird, I've been chalking it up to the fact that its a new rom and the phone needed to get used to it but it doesn't seem that way anymore.

Still having issues
Ok so I'm still having an over heating issue and my phone refuses to send or recieve texts for periods of time. I'm going to delete a couple of apps to see if they're causing the problem. If that doesn't work any chance that I'm having a hardware issue with the phone, it wouldn't be the first time I've had issues this would be my 5th replacement due to hardware issues in the phone.
Hello guys
I just finished updating my rooted Nexus 5 to 4.4.3 and it went fine but I immidiately noticed some "problems" when I turned it on. The thing is that my touch screen is not as responsive as before 4.4.3 update. On 4.4.2 scrolling was flowy and smooth like on ice, but on 4.4.3 I got big delay (half cm of emptiness) on scrolling through gesture (apps, home or anything..) and, even worse, when I'm scrolling down my Contacts list it dials randomly due to a lagging. Is there any calibration to be done or that's it?

It doesn't sound normal. Mine is working just as smooth as it was on 4.4.2. Have you tried wiping the phone? Do a factory reset and see.

my battery went from 19% to 0 over night.... in airplane mode. previously, it would only use 3-4% overnight, esp with everything turned off. almost woke up late
also, im having a hard time answering phone calls. i slide to answer, it doesnt answer but its still ringing
I noticed that there is a bunch of different problems reported last two days and I have decided to wait for Google's response on all of this mess. But I must say that my phone is working better now and somehow it heals itself )) Maybe this update is about implementing some organic components

Go to settings > apps > locate google dialer and clear cache
For battery drain, install an app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.asksven.betterbatterystats (it's free demo version is available on XDA) or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm
Observe your device for one day after complete charge (90+) and use it.
Using that app, you'll observe the apps/wakelocks which are causing unnecessary battery drain. Eliminate them or post screenshots here so that we can help you to solve battery drain issue.

First thing to do if something is broken after an OTA is factory reset to see if it is an OS bug or whether you have incompatible data and settings.
It sounds like it would be a pain to do, but you can easily backup with helium nowadays so it needn't be

GPS not Working
Has anyone else noticed if their GPS is working or not? I was trying to use mine last night and I can see that GPS connects and it brings up the map but then never navigates or even moves from the starting point on the map. Can someone let me know if this is a new problem??? I flashed the N5_4.4.3.zip file that someone pointed me to, as I had asked for a flashable zip file to update to 4.4.3 as I still have not gotten an ota notification from T-Mobile:confused
i have a question also,
what if i like the current mono toned google dialer?
when i get this update & it updates the dialer, is it possible to un-install the dialer update to revert back to the older dialer?

Not sure on battery life yet as it's only been a couple of hours since I updated.

it won't work while rooted, i've tried, twice. i'm waiting on the update prompt again to try my next thing, but if you want to try it feel free. if you open up superuser and go to the settings there is an option to fully unroot the device, its towards the bottom. After you do that restart and then try and apply the update.
let me know if it works! hopefully i get the update prompt again in the morning and will finally be able to get this thing updated!!!!
So curious as to what this update was. All I know is that today my battery life isn't nearly as good. Normally after working for 8hrs my phone is around 75%... Today it was at 40%... Massive difference and i did nothing out of the ordinary
That sounds like my phone, I've noticed that I Google services is using more battery than the screen recently.

My battery life has actually been really good. I was getting 15-20 hrs before the update and now I am getting 25-30 hours after. (Light use)

Yeah. Its the android system using the battery. Used this fix app before and it solved my problems. Hopefully its still reliable.
again this morning, no update prompt and the "check for update" function continues to say i'm up to date. because i had issues with my first two i signed up for sprint insurance. if i don't get prompted for the update by monday morning i'll stop in a sprint store and see if i can get it swapped again. only problem with that is chancing getting one that overheats or has a bad screen like my previous two did
i rooted and got the OTG upgrade message, and i try but it show error and said my device is rooted then can't upgrade software. Then i try to use "fully unroot" in supersu, the supersu gone, but the error still shown. do anyone know how to unroot and upgrade? thank you very much!

sorry, you are stuck there are a couple of other threads with further discussion on it but so far no one has been able to get the OTA to apply after they have rooted. some of us have been able to get new devices through sprint with having their insurance and play it off as the OTA won't update. they have had enough issues with the device they don't really question it.

Hi , I have a h830 with latest firmware 30c (Oreo) it's completely stock no root no custom recovery , at the first time I notice some bugs to the Oreo build ...
Always on display some times it's stucked at 12 o clock..
Bluetooth connection is unstable....
Some time lags too much....
just wondering if anyone had the same issues with his phone...

not sure about bluetooth as i haven't tried it since the update but my always on display will change to 2:00 for no reason and then back to the correct time and the phone runs so sluggish with any app unless its already in ram from a previous attempt. Sad an update this nice basically ruined the phone while others not on tmobile seem to be fine. Sure hope someone looks into this so we can get a fix.
Hard reset the device. It will fix most weird issues from the upgrade.

Not sure about anybody else but I'm experiencing a lot of random app crashes. Most specifically messenger, instagram, and YouTube. Its almost making me wanna downgrade back to nougat until this is fixed. Almost every time I go into messenger, if I begin to scroll through a message it crashes. Also crashes if I begin to type a message to someone. I noticed that for some reason if I do these actions slower it seems to crash less... It's very annoying.
Whats up everyone!? Im not new to XDA- I usally sit back and read what everyone has to st because ....well honestly ....I dont know **** compared to you guys!! Lmaoooo ! But ive been wondering Now that you guys have oreo....would you recommend upgrading from 7.0? I havent upgraded because im comfortable with 7- and all I keep seeing are complaints about oreo- ive even seen a few who downgraded back from oreo.
Is it worth it?
Also im on t-mobile have a LG-H830. Not rooted.
It took t-mobile forever to catch up.
My worry is -ok I upgrade to oreo, I experience all the bugs and issues everyone talks about....how long til they put out a fix for the bugs!?!?
I don't know.if I should or shouldn't
I appreciate any feedback.
And if im on the wrong thread /forum for this question.......I apologize.
