Reboots!

So I've had the phone since 4pm yesterday. I use uptime widget on my phones for kicks and to check for stability issues so I installed it right after I got it.
The phone was up for 7 hours until around 11pm when I rebooted it myself (to fix a unknown my phone number problem). It came up fine. 30 mins later it rebooted itself which i didn't think much of since I thought it was invoked by a SIM update. Since after the 2nd reboot it correctly showed my phone # in Status and my Messaging app, etc.
All is well, on the charger overnight, wake up this morning and use it everything is fine. At almost exactly 8:30AM while sitting idle/screen off it reboots again?!
Not sure if this is due to the tons of apps I have on or was again a network related reboot. I know in the past when I had GSM phones, the carrier can definitely initiate a reboot due to a SIM update. Having it happen at exactly 8:30AM seems bizarre. It's super fast and no lag or crashes otherwise.
I'm going to use it more today and keep an eye on it but just FYI. Anybody with it experiencing anything similar?

Oh Noes!!!

Could be because of me. I had Wifi Calling on both times and I had changed the network mode from the Auto default to WCDMA only. I'll get to the bottom of this, I'm sure

Check out this review of the GSlate by PC Mag. One of the cons is "occasionally reboots." I think LG has some 'splaining to do. This is their second device (third if you separate O2X from G2X) to suffer the problem.
Pros
First 4G tablet. Powerful Tegra 2 processor. Excellent HD screen, with HD output capability. Shoots and plays 3D footage (glasses included). Affordably-priced (after rebate) for 32GB capacity. Generally intuitive user interface. Dual-facing cameras. Video chat.
Cons
Default Honeycomb home screen feels cluttered. Flash 10.2 beta is buggy. Strange, off-center orientation for front-facing camera. Occasionally reboots, unprovoked, when idle. Android Market needs more Honeycomb apps.​

Strange how LG could be causing this on both devices since they are both stock Android! My Moto XOOM with Honeycomb has it's issues as well because it's an early OS but having occassional reboots on Froyo 2.2.2 is not acceptable.
I'm hoping it's related to an app or something. Once more people get the phone we should be able to see if it's an isolated or widespread problem.

Its definitely not the LG's custom UI that is causing random reboots. I really hope its not the hardware!

Update coming soon hopefully?

That's the 2X right? Doubt the same update will apply to us but here's hoping. Anybody else with a G2X having this? It could just have been me and the phone being provisioned. I've had it for less than 24 hours.

Lets not jump to conclusions just yet.. My phones have rebooted due to my doings, lets see if others have the issue first before blaming the issue on this phone too.

Just received my G2X today and have experienced the random reboot thing twice in about 3 hours.
Will keep an eye on it today and report back later.

New customer or existing? I know by saying I'm jinxing myself but it's been 7 hours so far without a reboot.
Were you on Wifi when it happened? Were you using Wifi calling? Let's start putting together a picture.

Please start keeping track of what you or phone was doing when it happens. This will help everyone.

unistalling apps

Don't worry me like this! My phone is arriving tomorrow! Also when you guys got your phones did you plug it in and let it fully charge before playing with it? I know it would be hard not to just turn it on...

Just rebooted again while I was walking the dog and listening to a podcast so first time while I was using it. I think it might have to do with GPS use. The CNN app I installed last night uses it a ton and I think it causes the issue.
Anybody else having this using CNN or another GPS heavy app.
I've turned off GPS for now. Before this reboot it had been up for 10h

For whatever reason turning off GPS has made the phone even faster. Maybe there's a bug or memory leak related to GPS? Here's hoping we don't get any more reboots.

[Q] Battery Consumption Gear 2 and S4

I have had my Gear 2 for about 7 days now and i barely get 24hrs on a single charge.
What are people seeing for battery consumption?
Am i missing something?
I thought it was the newness and that i might have been using a lot so i planned to reset the watch and not use it that much as a test. So yesterday i reinitialized my G2 and reinstalled the Gear Manager on my phone. I planned for a day of limited use. I turned off the screen motion sensor. Then this morning i took the G2 off charge at 8:30am. I checked the time today maybe about 10 times received 2 notifications and at 8:50PM i am at 49% WTF?
This is terrible performance and sadly i am contemplating returning my G2 to best buy and waiting to see what else comes out in later this year. I also can't seem to get notifications to pop up on the screen. I get vibration and beeps but i still have to open the notification section to read the msgs from my messaging app Invi.
The battery is really going to be the deal breaker for me unless someone has some insight to what might be causing this massive drain.

I've had mine for a little longer than yourself. I have mine hooked up to a note 3 and I have been getting great battery life, in the 3+ days range. I turned off the motion sensor and the battery has gotten even better, sitting at 69% after pulling it off the charger yesterday morning, I am not a heavy user of it however, I use it mainly at work, since I can't have my phone on vibrate, only silence it allows me to know when my phone receives things in a discrete manner. You probably received a defective unit as to the battery life and the notification issues. I would take it back to best buy and trade it for another. My 2 cents.

It is now 12:45AM the G2 has been off charge for 16hr 15min and i am at 20% I have only checked the time about 5 times since my original post.
I don't think it will make it to 24hrs.

That is the kind of performance i was hoping for.
Maybe i will return it for another but i don't have a good feeling. Maybe it is something related to my S4 and the G2 combination.

You need to remember that although the screen is off its still working. Mine is working fine on S4 and I have everything on and brightest it can go and use it a lot .anything over 24 hours is fine to me. Currently been off charge for 10 hours and still 83%. We all use devices differently so it's either defective or something isn't set right.

As i stated in my post i refrained from using the G2 aside from checking the time throughout the day. I completely agree with you. The question is what could possibly be set wrong to cause this,

When the G2 reached 15% at around 2AM (~17hrs off charge) i turned off the bluetooth on the G2 and after 2 hours it was at 14%. So it seems that it is related to the bluetooth and S4.

Which android version do you run on you your S4?

Could it be the rom version? There are more battery problems reported with roms that are not samsung stock roms. Good luck!

I thought Gear 2 only work with 4.4?

No they work with 4.3. My note 3 was 4.3 due to Verizon being slow to update. But the gear worked great with 4.3. Works better with 4.4 though. I see better battery life on both devices, it seems to not drain as much.

Bought mine a couple of days ago. Wonderful device, however, the battery last for only 1 day. Running with Note II Android 4.3 . If Android 4.4.2 doesn't solve a problem, I'll head for Service. Fortunately, here is Taiwan there is no problem with that.

Returned my G3 this morning

I tried to like this phone , but could not... I was sick of the random reboots and overall sluggish feeling of this phone. I had Note 3 before this and what a mistake....Will get Note 4 in a few weeks.... It's been fun!!
Sent from my SM-P600 using XDA Premium HD app

Well good luck with the note.
I never had any issues out of my g3. Battery is great, no overheating, no random reboots, no major lagging as a matter of fact no lag at all mostly a stutter here and there in the app drawer from time to time. Been using the stock lg launcher since I got the phone and everything for me has been fluid.....
Lol then I see you made a post saying the phone was fast and no problems out of it........

I've had my phone for over a month now and I've never had any random reboots or overheating. I use my phone a lot so battery is meh for Me. But I'm happy and I love it.
No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.

Lol I know it was new and I thought it was okay at the time...as time went on.. I started to have buyers remorse...with Att&t making us use Pma charging ..That was it for me...I just like Samsung better...

Just bought mine a lil over a week ago , hated to but got the carrier branded AT&T version. This is actually 2nd one. The first phone kept randomly shutting off during activation at the store. I like this phone. It has times where different points on the screen become unresponsive. Aggregating...it also seems to use much more of the ram than I would expect right out of the box. I use a tempered glass screen protector that may or not be causing my screen issues? As a LONG time HTC user, coming from the One, M7. I'm still getting used to something different. I do like it though. Thinking about rooting when I have time off because once boot loader is unlocked I think this device will be a beast!
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Premium HD app

Had my phone over a month now and absolutely loving it. Running stock rooted, no greenify. I froze all the AT&T apps and none of the LG ones. I use the stock launcher and get well over 4+ hours of screen on time, no overheating, no reboots, etc. My fiancee has the phone as well and she's been averaging almost 6+ hrs of screen on time, however where she works has better signal. I travel all over the place for work and signal is spotty.

No rebooting issues here. I will admit that my m8 outperforms the g3 (except for the camera). However, the note 3 that I received last year was a total disappointment. That was random rebooting nightmare. I guess it really depends on the specific device you get. Some may receive a subpar device.

Have the same issue with the screen becoming unresponsive in spots at times. I, too, have one of the tempered glass screen protectors bought from the AT&T Store. Such a coincidence, makes me wonder...

That's what I just said about my Galaxy S5. Now I can make calls from my new car, have no reboot issues and have a better signal in my home. No more unlimited data but I wasn't using exorbitant amounts of it before anyway.
Note 3 or 4 wouldn't solve my issues. Samsung's bluetooth stack is broken and they know all about it.
Get in where you fit in. Good luck.

It's the screen protector i had it and i exhanged it at the store cause i was still in my 14days after i bought it, they exhanged it and i got the invisishield one that i had on a couple devices in the past, i recommend you try to exhange it if not get a cheap screen protector while you browse for a new one cause believe me you will think its the phone but it's not.

Slow walking the bootloader unlock is gonna kill development. Seen it before. If it becomes a popular device devs will come and an unlock with it but I understand people wanting a device with options. I don't use 3rd party ROMs anymore so I don't care much.

Agreed. My M8 is faster too, but after a root / debloat / exposed / different launcher / no carrier IQ... not by much.
I have not experienced much lag, mainly keyboard (any) delays keeping up with typing.
I believe that we haven't seen the true potential of the g3 until this bootloader is cracked and meaningful customization is a reality.

This phone is great! No lag of any kind on my phone. It is rooted and running ART. No screen protector needed. All at&t bloat frozen. Phone is fast, battery life is very good. Better than I expected. The signal is also very good. I pick up LTE in my office at work where before I could only get 4g sometimes. Very happy with this phone as is.

I dunno about all that. According to development updates in the bounty thread devs working on it are confident that they can unlock it, and that it's right around the corner.
I'm all for meaningful customization.. I imagine my g3 with the latest miui on it, that would be sweet... That said, this is the first phone I've been happy with as is. Debloated, greenify, g3 tweak box and the stock rom isn't all that bad.

I have no idea what you're talking about! The note 3 is the best phone out right now. No reboots here at all. Ever. I had one issue on jellybean, the sleep/power button had some lag. But since I moved over to kitkat, that issue is resolved. The screen is sick! 5.7 inch, Super amoled, which is the best imo, 3gb of ram, 32gb internal storage, micro sd slot, usb 3.0. Need I say more? Lol. Now, I also love htc, is my first love. I used to hate samsung. That is until I gave the note 3 a shot. It changed my mind about samsung. And I tried the G3, but it wasn't for me. Ill stick with htc and Samsung.

Cool. I hope I'm very very wrong. I know some devs have unlocks waiting but I guess I'm used to devs staying away if development on a new device isn't hot - which usually is in line with how popular a device is. I'm lost on why this is working out like this with the G3.
I'm really happy with stock too for once. I usually root, unlock, throw Nova on it and maybe go with a stock debloat deodexed or some variation of stock. I can't believe I'm good with the stock launcher ,de-carrieriq'ed + tweakbox. I'm not seeing any lag issues at all either. This thing is dusting my S5. I'm just happy that everything is working, radio being disabled and IR being hosed for 3rd party apps sucks a bit but that's minor.

Moto g 2015 overheating

Hi
few days ago i adquire a new moto g 2015 but found that the phone overheats just in a few minutes of using it on wifi or network data.it gets hotter tan when playing for example real racing or asphalt 8 games
tried whit the aosp rom form here to see if the problem is gone but it doesnt improve.
tried again with the oem rom but removing every motorola app but theres no improvement
its a phone issue or lollipop issue?

I've had no overheating and have noticed very few if any posts on overheating. How do you know it's overheating?

in just 3 minutes of use the screen and back comes hot to the point it hurts. just using wifi no other app open just using 1 app play or chrome well any app,same thing with network data.
but if you turn off the wifi or net data the temp start to drop.

Yeah, if it gets hot enough to hurt, that would concern me.. I'm guessing you don't have a case on it then. Looking at the battery stats, are there any apps that stand out as being heavy on the memory. Chrome is a heavy ram user or at least it was on mine, that's why I ditched it.

no cover but even with an amzer tpu cover you can feel the heat trough it,i know chrome is a ram guzzler i use opera .
in the stas everything looks normal os and screen as the mayor consumers other stuff in minimal state even chrome.
the problem is only when using it on wifi or network data,the center of the screen is the hottest spot when this happens.

other than gaming .. does it heat??
like .. if you are using Wifi, browsing for long hours.. watching videos for long time .. etc .. !
mine will also heat up .. when i play in direct sunlight .. the glass gets over heated .. i feel it would crack due to that heat..
but if i play in shadows or in rooms .. its ok .. not that much amount of heat..
try in several conditions and reply again bro.

The overheating is only on wifi or net data,in just 3 minutes,even if i use the phone in complete darkness!!

not unlocked.But i recomend any moto g 2015 to not unlcok until satified with the phone operation.
yerterday i tried to contact motorola and they answered me 30 minutes later so it seems that motorola now are suffering the same issue as lenovo customer service or policies " screw you its not bussines" then 20 more minutes later answering stupid questions the answer was simply a please return the unit with not even a hope or chance to try fix it, well since i purchased the phone from amazon returns are easy as 123, done with it!!!

I agree on waiting awhile, I waited 2 weeks before I unlocked. I would return it also with that type of overheating. Good luck.

Mate 9 : overheating and battery drain on 1st day

Good evening
I Buy the phone 2 days ago on Amazon USA - yesterday arrived at night and has been an absolute disaster.
1. It overheats on the back side - top right
2. The battery does NOT last for 2 days. Today on its first day of actual use disconnect it at 6am and it's 1.26pm at 10% battery life
3. The LEICA camera is ... basic and normal nothing surprising in the quality of photos
3. 30 mins ago I asked Amazon today, to replace it with a new one, I hope it is a hardware problem and that it is not a global problem in the device s
4. Huawei my first experience with the Brand has been Fatal a real #EPICFAIL
5. I will continue to tell you my experience ... I hope I can say something good
Any Advice ? Any tweaks? To get a 2 day battery and superb performance as they promised!

Day 3 for me and I had serious battery drain issues today. I was constantly notified of the power hogging apps, something I never experienced the previous 2 days. Not sure what happened but I was extremely happy the first 2 days.

I can't comment on the US edition, but with international versions, sometimes doing a factory reset helps a lot.

Anyone have a little yellowish darkness at the bottom of the screen? That's my only beef. My god this thing charges fast.

Yeah I have the international version but the included Facebook app(3 total) were killing my battery.
No issues after that and disabling wifi scan in location settings. Getting a solid 7hrs of sot. Was almost 10hrs sot before I updated to newer firmware but I couldn't deal with the number notification thingy.
Like any phone I don't expect perfect without some tweaks.

Let's hope a new update comes out soon to get us the 10 hours again.

He was talking about SOT not standby time.

I got a good feeling he wasnt being sarcastic about the 2 day battery life.
If he wasnt, thats the reason im no dev.

The Facebook and messenger app have been reported to cause overheating and battery drainage.
Do try to uninstall them and see if it fixes the problem. Had a similar problem on my phone and deleted both of these junks after monitoring what's causing it

Yep. This has hit Reddit: "Is there something mysterious about FB Messenger using a ton of background data lately?"

Did you insert a MicroSD on the phone ?

Just goto app settings and activate 'close when sleep' option for all the suspected app. Its like an inbuilt version of Greenify app

Good evening
I Buy the phone 2 days ago on Amazon USA - yesterday arrived at night and has been an absolute disaster.
1. It overheats on the back side - top right
2. The battery does NOT last for 2 days. Today on its first day of actual use disconnect it at 6am and it's 1.26pm at 10% battery life
3. The LEICA camera is ... basic and normal nothing surprising in the quality of photos
3. 30 mins ago I asked Amazon today, to replace it with a new one, I hope it is a hardware problem and that it is not a global problem in the device s
4. Huawei my first experience with the Brand has been Fatal a real #EPICFAIL
5. I will continue to tell you my experience ... I hope I can say something good
Any Advice ? Any tweaks? To get a 2 day battery and superb performance as they promised!

Everytime your phone gets hot ( and it's the same for all brands) you should turn off your phone and then back on. An app is keeping your processor at 100%. Two days ago I had the same problem with facebook and messenger.
The camera it's on top of all available phones. I have the latest firmware available and it's capable of very very good results, even better then S7/edge.
All the android phones, at first use are scanning all the files. It's ususal that first charge or two to last less.
Huawei has this prompt for apps runnng in backgroud. It's annoying but at least we know witch apps are more power hungry.

No overheating at all. My Note 4 often got a little warm/hot, but this phone is just cold most of the time. I use it with dual sim, work and private, lot of sync actions, working fine. No Facebook or FB Messenger
The power consumption warning can be turned off for apps that you trust.

Uninstall Facebook and Messenger

This phone has the best battery life and SOT of any Android or iPhone that I've used. The control over individual apps is great.
And the camera is pretty damn good too.
Sounds like the OP has been sent a dud.

Nah I bet it's just a rogue app. Also he seems to be confusing SOT with standby time.
