No problems on stock here..
I shouldnt have to
The problem is with stock is that there should be no problems at all
I got my third replacement last week and still has reboots and freeze issues!
Talked to tmo tech today and told me to get a new sim card again! I just replaced the sim less than 2 months ago!
We'll see if this fixes the problem which most likely not!
I did notice the sim cards are different so who knows!

I've used stock mostly and no issues. Don't really trust the roms right now since it's kinda like trying to wax a car that's already beat up. I wanna wait until there is a solid base to work off of before customizing.

Not being ignorant, but why do people think reboots, freezing, etc will be fixed with an exchange? I know hardware varies slightly but your just returning a phone for one that has the same software causing the same issues....Am I wrong?
I sent one back this week only because of excessive light bleeding. Even that is not that big of a deal but I figured why not.

Good luck. My second phone is great since I got it yesterday. No bleeding, no reboots, and gps locks in 2 seconds. The phone I returned had bleeding, reboots, shutoffs, and a 2+ min gps lock.

Hey everyone I just bought a g2x and it seemed to be OK until everytime I charge it wont wake up and its hot as hell!! I have to battery pull. Last night I had it charging and in the morn the phone would not wake and was baking like it was in the oven. I rooted but still seem to have the problem with all rom's. After scouring the forums I've seen some people return there's and get an up to date model which fixes the problem. Other threads say its the battery at fault. Since I bought it straight up I can't call T-Mobile for exchange so what can I do? Are there any ways I can stop this from happening? Thanks guys for looking at my post.

If it is getting that hot there is a serious problem with the battery or the phone. Contact TMO and get a replacement. If you bought from a third party source get them to replace your defective device. Are you using the official battery? After market batteries often have bad temp sensors and can cause dangerous issues such as this. If the battery gets too hot it can actually explode.
I bough it new from a third party at a high price. They said they will not take it back. Anything that is wrong with the phone its not their fault nor problem. Can't contact T-Mobile since i didn't get it through them and I'm on a different carrier because i had the phone sim unlocked.
Update though the only Roman which been running perfect no freezes or reboot is eagle blood froyo. Stable and fast rom but I'm dying for gingerbread. All Ginger roms give me problems. BTW I'm using battery that came with phone not third party.

Do u have full coverage insurance? If u do, use the phone for a few days then call T-Mobile. Insurance stays on the line and covers 99% of phones.

I don't have tmobile contract. I use simple mobile 4g service which is 60 dollars a month. They won't honor me. I was thinking of calling LG support but I don't think that will go anywhere.
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk
Try a new battery. If that doesn't solve the problem contact LG USA support. Don't mention you are not a TMO customer or that you bought it second hand (warranty is to the original purchaser only - technically second hand devices have no warranty). If you don't have proof of purchase they might honor the warranty based on 18 months from the date of manufacture. Play as stupid as you can and see if they let you send it in for repair or replacement. They don't do advance exchanges so you will be without the phone for about a month.
No luck with LG support. The only thing I have left is trying a new battery. Right now I'm fine on Eagles Blood froyo rom but any other rom i get overheating and reboots/freezes. Idk why is that.

I remember when I had the same issue you have... "charge over night, wake up and phone was very hot and the buttons light up but nothing was on screen"... I tried all the rom there is for g2x, best for me is cm7 nightly builds. No issue what so ever after flashing it. Cm7 Nightly 179
I just found a gingerbread Tom that was posted not too long ago that fixes all the screen of death issues and reboots. Jboxer ported it from another LG L95G (tracfone) that has the same hardware as the g2x. I've been running it and it is flawless. The only bad side is its stock. But ill take performance over everything else. Its gingerbread 2.3.4.
Im nit android saavy but im thinking LG messed up somewhere in the software. A bug that should have been noticed by them.

Hello,
My Xperia Z broke and I sold it. Last week I bought a Nexus 5 (white) and yesterday the touchscreen suddenly stopped working while browsing twitter. I rebooted and the touchscreen worked for 1 sec and then it stopped working again. It keeps working for 1 - 5 sec and then stops.
Is there a way I can fix this? The phone is rooted because I wanted to copy WhatsApp over from another phone because I lost my sim bound to whatsapp.
I can go to the shop I bought it and get it fixed under warranty because I did not do anything weird with the phone nor dropped it. but first I want to see if it can be fixed from home or if it is a software problem because the shop is a hour drive and I don't want to do without my phone for another 2 weeks.
Thanks in advance!
This should have been posted in q&a, not general. But to answer your question, you're going to have to warranty it.
If you want to be sure it's hardware, reflash the factory image and see if anything changes. But it's most likely hardware at this point.

I hope we are not going to get this part functioning screen problem with the N5. I bought a Nexus 5 last week only because part of my N4's screen stopped responding to touch after having it for only 14 months from new.

If it's happened to two of your devices, maybe it's something you're doing to it.
Edit: disregard, I mistook you for OP.

Hi guys,
I know that there is a problem with other LG G3 carriers that the device make restarts by its self.
I thought that my AT&T device is protected from that buti wrong.
The phone make self restarts i think one in 2-3 days.
I don't know why....
From my search in the NET i saw that this is the illness of this device.
There will be solution for that problem?
Hope yes....
Thanks
If your device randomly reboots then it is a factory defect and should be returned immediately! I did this with one of my old samsungs and it only took a couple of days to get a new one in the mail. Don't keep a lemon, get a new one while you can!

the problem is that i bought this device in US and i leave in israel so i cant send it to the factory. is there any software solution?
1st, I want to tanks Verizon and Samsung for the horrible update. Knowing all rhe issues peiole are having I waited to do the update. After reading a post from a Verizon Employee stating Verizon was rhe last to release the update so they could tweak it and make it perfect, I did it against my better judgement and boy do I regret it. The phone freezes all the time, "unfortunately the Phone has stopped working" and now, several times a day, "unfortunately the Samsung Keyboard has stopped working" and I have to restart my phone. So sick of this. Any advice? Attached a couple screen shots.

Having same issue
I am having the same issue with getting "samsung keyboard has stopped working" It started within 10 minutes of upgrading to 5.0 on my Verizon Note Edge and has happened multiple times per day ever since. Surely others are seeing this!
Do a factory reset and your woes will disappear

I have the same issue on my TMO Edge. Did a reset and it didn't do anything but make me start over with customizing. Within a few hours it was having the same issues. I'm hoping 5.1 fixes it and the carriers get it out soon.
I downloaded the swift keyboard. It's actually quite nice and the mic Voice to Text feature still uses Google instead of a 3rd part app. ?
