Hello everyone, much like a lot of you after updating my Edge to 5.1.1 the edge screen notifications appeared to stop working (calls still came in on the edge screen). After some trouble shooting and trial and error, I fixed my particular issue and hopefully my experience might help someone else.
All of my settings were correct, edge panel > Notifications was enabled
Under the default messaging app, Notifications > Edge Screen was enabled
I backed up all of my phone data and preformed a factory reset (much to my dismay). I also cleared the cache. After the initial setup of my phone, I started setting it up as I had it: re-installed apps, setup fingerprint lock screen, and got all of my settings back to how I liked them...and still...no notifications on the edge screen. After preforming five factory resets, I used the process of elimination and come to find out, registering a fingerprint and using the fingerprint scanner to unlock my phone caused my notifications to not show up on my edge screen. Not sure if there is some bug associated with 5.1.1, fingerprint scanner, and the edge screen, but this fixed my particular issue.
So you can't use the fingerprint scanner as well as have edge notifications?

It appears so, I can set up a pattern to unlock my phone and it works fine, but fingerprints are a no go.
That is really strange. I updated to 5.1.1 via AT&T's OTA. Everything works as it has been. However, I noticed that when clicking the home button at times, my screen remains blank or there is a delay.
I also got the update via AT&T ota.
After my trouble shooting it appeared to work just fine for a while, until my phone was rebooted again and after the reboot the edge notifications are no longer working. RIP
I stand corrected... It appears that mine isn't working either...
My edge screen now has a thin white line along the outer border after the update, also seen what seems to be some screen lag as well (Main screen black for a second or selected background image not showing behind the screen elements) done the normal troubleshooting, Reboot, battery pull, factory reset. no change.
Same issue with the notifications stopping after a reboot here. Weird how some people's phones were improved greatly by 5.1.1 and others were ruined. I didn't have any bugs in 5.0.1, so I guess im paying for it now.
For me, 5.1.1 improved my battery life a lot, but then, it broke the edge notification...

So my Android Auto has gone all bonkers in both of my cars. Both cars are new 2017 Chevys and what has happen is that the icons that display on the bottom of the touch screen seem to have disappeared as well as the screen sometimes rotating. Android auto work fine before the issue only started happening around Nov 20th something. Any way I was wondering if anyone else has seen this or solved a similar issue with their device. Thanks,
RR
I have images but because I'm new I can't link to them.
I have a Pixel 2 and I feel like ever since the device upgraded to Pie I get this random horizontal line that briefly flickers during a transition between apps from the launcher. It is the very bottom of the screen for any app that keeps a black navigation bar at the bottom. It will only flash or flicker once and doesn't happen all the time. The main app that does this is Hangouts but occasionally happens with others too like the camera app or Google News. I figured it might be software but wanted to see if anyone else noticed it. The device runs fine otherwise so hopefully not a big deal down the road if there is failing hardware.
Currently downloading on Tmoble

Finally! I'm downloading as well, T-Mobile
Got mine to...
Downloading it now.
Honestly the most disappointing os upgrade ive ever seen. Reminds me why i dont use an lg as a daily driver any more.
If nothing else, the new Android 11 upgrade does enable Stand-Alone 5G (per the T-Mobile website). That, in itself, is probably worth the upgrade!

Unfortunately, w/the V60, 5G SA was not enabled in the software on Android 10 - even with the R15 SIM. Glad I'm now able to share the true 5G experience you've been enjoying!

Hmm, i had even confirmed it with several signal apps that it was SA, and even had SA speeds. I moved on to oneplus now and just use my v60 for media casting.

No upgrade here in Europe for Sim free.
It is available for AT&T as well. I had to manually check for updates, then it started downloading. It didn't tell me how large the update was or any changes, so I had no idea if it was the Android 11 update or a security update until it finished the update.
I've ran the update and can confirm it is Android 11.
A few things I've immediately noticed based off of MY experiences on Android 10,
The performance was laggy on first boot (expected after a software upgrade), but has since smoothed out and seems overall faster than Android 10, but that could just be due to the improved gesture navigation; more on that below.
The gesture navigation controls are much more reliable, animations are smoother, and functionality less glitchy.
This improvement is very noticeable when quick switching apps by swiping left/right on the gesture bar:
Sometimes it would skip 2 apps back and jump forward to the correct (previous) app
Animate to the previous app but snap back to the current app
Simply not register the gesture at all
I haven't experienced any of these again yet.
The recent apps screen scrolls MUCH smoother as well.
Speaking of gesture controls, it now "floats" above the rest of the apps similar to iOS instead of having it's own dedicated nav bar and the gesture "pill" itself (not really a pill on this phone lol) is slightly bigger. You can see the difference in my first 2 screenshots
EDIT: The gesture pill still has it's own bar at the bottom, but it appears that its background is able to color match with the opened app (similar to the notification bar) which makes it look like it's sitting on top of the opened app.
The notification shade has a UI update. Looks better IMO.
If you use the stock LG launcher, the swipe down search tool loads faster, but there's still a noticeable delay before you can type anything
You can also change the "accent" color. My accent color is blue in my first screenshot, but it changed to green after the 11 update. You can change the color in the settings.
Taking screenshots is instant. No more holding down the key combo for a second.
There's emoji updates
There is a minor update to the blank contact image (see previous screenshot).
I saw some changelogs online that mentioned some camera app UI updates...it doesn't look any different to me??
And of course the FB Messenger style chat bubbles are now supported for other apps including the stock LG Messaging app.
Andoird 11 update has been horrible. Battery that prior to update lasted all day, now lasts 5-6 hours, phone runs hot, and WiFi AND 5G symbols are BOTH always on.
This might be the end of the line for me with LG.
Any news about the Canadian version?
I'm on AT&T and updated to Android 11 earlier this week. It resulted in a black screen soft-brick. I could still see the touches (from dev mode) where fingers tapped the screen. And if I held down the Power button, I'd see the typical Power Down / Restart / Etc. options, and tapping on them would generate the appropriate responses. But in all other instances, it was just a black screen. I figured my HEAVY de-bloating of Android 10 when I first got the phone caused something to break.
So I went ahead and did a full factory restore using recovery/safe mode and set it up as a new phone, and haven't had any serious issues since. I went ahead and got almost everything (minus Fluid Navigation Gestures, RIP) working the way I wanted, and embarked on another HEAVY de-bloating process. Seems like I took things too far, because, upon my next reboot, I was in the exact same black screen soft-brick state I mentioned above.
Another factory reset. Another session of restoring my apps, launcher, settings, and customizations. This time, I just used Package Disabler Pro for LG from the Google Play Store to perform some more restrained bloatware disabling, and everything's been pretty great. For Android 10 and the first attempt at de-bloating Android 11, I was using ADB commands to "uninstall" dozens upon dozens of system apps. Battery life is not quite as good as it was with my heavily de-bloated Android 10 environment, but I didn't expect it to be, and I'm not going to risk messing this all up again.
My only complaint is that stock AOD (and Sidelight Notifications) don't seem to be working properly, no matter how I configure them in Settings. I'm not sure what's causing the issue, but I actually developed this problem just a few days BEFORE the AT&T OTA landed, and it's persisted through a full Android point upgrade and two factory resets, so I imagine there's a conflict somewhere. Maybe with Fluid Simulation - Trippy Stress Reliever (my live wallpaper app of choice), Energy Bar, or Nova Launcher. I haven't been able to pinpoint it yet, but since it predates the Android 11 OTA by a few days, there must be another cause.
I do miss Fluid Navigation Gestures, but I'm happy to report that the new Android 11 gestures are way better than Android 10's. Not quite as customized as I had FNG, but I've adapted. Until/unless someone figures out how to hide the navigation bar without root, LG's gestures it is, I guess.
First thing I noticed was that I can now set a minimum brightness from the navigation bar .... This is a huge improvement as before the brightness would go to zero in a dark room... Now I can choose how low I want it to go and still automatically increase when needed ..
Finally SIM free in Europe got the Android 11 update.

There is a thread on reddit saying that this is the result of fingerprint locking. Try with pin unlock instead and see if battery life improves.

Kindly can you extract us the KDZ file from your phone and share it here?
Otherwise can you share here all apk files for LG V60 after android 11 update?
Thnx n Adv.
UI transitions, pulling down the notifications or pulling up the app drawer seems laggy/slow frame rate.
Battery drain: the battery used to last at the very least 48h. Now I'm recharging it every 24/28h
Factory reset didn't solve anything for me.
laggy here too. Good info, now I know Factory reset it's useless.
Other issue I have:
some app don't use anymore or not properly border / edge.
I think downgrade to Android 10.
Haven't got it yet, in the US.
Same lagging in Android 11 on Edge.
I also have Edge+, on Edge+ no change.
Went back to Android 10...

I found a solution, I'll post it later. Battery is ok for me.
This works for me:
Go to Developer options and disable "Enable blurs". That option provides a blur on the screen, for example, behind the notification panel when we slide it.
You need to perform a reboot. After rebooting, all animations and transitions work fine. Let me know if it is useful.
Related with this: When "Enable blur" is enabled and you are broadcasting screen, you will notice a problem in vertical mode. Try swiping the notification bar... can you see how the resolution expands on the TV? I'm sure that's related to the lag.

Yes, I noticed that. I don't think it's an issue... it's a motorola decision.

It can be a motorola decision have border screens and dont be used properly, some apps dont use the edges now and i see my backscreen wallpepare in the sides when im using spotify. Is horrible and it shouldnt be like that!
I have the same problems as you guys and also now i have to wait half of a second to start recording an audio on whatsapp or instagram, and before the update it was perfect.... Does someone know how to do a downgrade?
I updated my Moto Edge 5g 6days ago, and changed the Blur option as advised by Cruban and my phone is working fine.
The battery seems the same as it was before and i don't have any issues with the non edge apps and the wallpaper.
For me too at first!
After disable turn off "Enable blur" and restart the phone , everything's work fine
I have receive new update today
RPD31.Q4U-39-26-14
fixed
- Laggy performance on the home screen
- Edge Display (or lack thereof for most apps on Android 11).
