Top and Bottom (Status and Nav Bar) Bar lost - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I had my LG G3 rooted, and the dpi changed to 540. Also I played around with the exposed module tweakbox. Something else went wrong and so I did a factory reset with the Custom Recovery.
Afer that I could not download anything (except in Google Play). Also I had no access to the download folder.
So I decided to flash the firmware again. I did this with a CSE Flash. After doing so the Status and the Nav Bar were missing.
The I had the idea to try Kitkat. And everything was fine. Status Bar and Nav Bar where there. But as soon as i flash a Lollipop Firmware both bars are missing again.
Would love to have Lollipop again. Hope someone has an idea.
I guess it might be something with the tweakbox. But why is that still after a cse flash

EDIT:
Next Problem: With KitKat Firmware WIFI is not working.

Flash TWRP in KitKat and then boot to TWRP and perform a full wipe + factory reset. Then flash a lollipop kdz. Everything should be fine.

after restoring KDZ, no "LG" apps ***SOLVED***

Hello friends. I need to explain this problem:
When I bought my phone for the first time, I remember when I made ​​it a full wipe from shortcuts on the phone's buttons, LG applications are maintained.
Now after having rooted my phone, installed TWRP and have installed several roms, I have decided to re-stock with KDZ​​.
But the problem is that after having flashed the KDZ, LG applications has disappeared.
I'll put screenshot after performing a restore kdz:
***SOLVED***
Flashing original TOT Firmware contains complete firmware.
KDZ not contain all firmware.
I had a similar issue as yours back on my Galaxy s4, except it was the carrier apps (bell) that would be missing, and I also wouldn't get the "LTE" icon after a stock firmware flash if I was going from a rom that didn't already have the icon (weird I know).
Anyways I was able to fix the issue by doing a SECOND flash EVERYTIME I went back to stock rom.
I flashed 100's of times on my s4 and EVERYTIME I went back to stock I had to do 2 flashes or I would have "missing apps"
I never had this issue with my g3 yet, but I haven't tried to go back to stock yet since changing to cloudy rom.
I don't know if this fix will work for the g3 like it did on my s4, but it can't hurt to try.

exactly this happened to me when I try to install the ROM Cloudy, when I want to go back to stock with kdz, the LG system applications disappeared.
My question is this?
The KDZ not come with these pre-installed applications?
It is out of reach of KDZ, it will be in another folder outside SYSTEM.
It's strange, now my question is that will not see problems in an OTA update.
LOL, that strangest problem. :silly:
Solved Mystery...... Flash TOT contains complete stock firmware. :good:
KDZ not contain all firmware.

navigation bar not working 5.0.1

Is anyone else having issues wirh the home button not working? Occasionally the recents too. Its driving me bananas, i have had this tablet for over a year and use the crap out of it. Now i have to restart all the time which usually doesnt solve anything. Is this googles way to make me have to buy a new tablet??
How did you install 5.0.1? Flash or OTA? If you flashed it using TWRP, make sure you're using TWRP ver. 2.8.2.2. I heard this solves your problem.
OTA, i did a factory reset and it seems to have solved the issue so far. Thanks!

lg apps not updating or downloading on v20h stock lollipop

is anyone having the same issue as me,
i came from kitkat and flashed v20h stock rom and supersu as per the instructions, everything works fine except my lg apps such as quickmemo+ and lg remote cannot be downloaded using the update centre,
i managed to find the apk and install, and it just doesn't let me update them either,
anyone had this problem before?
Same Boat.
Any solutions? I have the same problems after flashing to Lollipop also. However, I did make a mistake of wiping "internal storage." This is the glitch after that screwup. I resolved the other issues (no softkeys and no notification bar) by flashing Kitkat THEN LP. This issue remains, so I restored LG apps from Ti backups. but they will NOT download and/or update. They do work.
This all started because my 1st LP flash self destructed. It kinda feels like a permission thing. I am hesitant to do another reset (the right one). But I don't want to go forward until I fix this. I think the reset must do something to the LG App Updates app when you fist boot. I think it must see some stuff from internal storage that I had zapped. Since it was't there and now fails.
I know we can't be only two. problem seems rare though. So far.

Data problems after unroot

I'm having issues with my data connection after unrooting my phone for the LP update. I used the the TOT file method to unroot my phone, and didn't have any issues with the process. This method takes me back to the 10c version and everything works flawlessly. When I take the updates though, everything looks normal, boots up fine, but won't connect to anything but WiFi. The data signal bars have a tiny refresh circle rotating above for a few seconds then goes to a red x. Ten in a few more seconds it starts over searching for a signal. This happens on every stock ROM I flash now too. Only the 10c ROM, CM11, CM12, and AOSP based ROMs work. I'm not a complete noob at rooting. I've been doing it since my og evo 4g, but this is the first major problem I've had. Currently I'm staying with the unrooted 10c ROM until I can find a fix. Everything is working, but I constantly have the update notification which is annoying. Anyone have any other suggestions? I've tried using the TOT file method and the KDZ file with the 10R method. Thanks in advanced

Have you tried my fix? It might work for you. Try it and let me know. Before trying it though make sure your APN is correct setting for Tmobile. If so try the fix on my thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/help/lte-lollipop-issue-fix-t3075637
Not sure how I missed your thread. I'm trying it now and I'll report back in a few.
That did the trick!!!
