Hey mates suddenly my D855 G3 stopped all the vibration it doesn't vibrate even on "vibration tester" app
I didn't drop it or something but I don't know what went wrong with it, am running 5.0 official with no Root (and I don't want to root it)
any ideas?
Thanks

First of all have you tried a Hard Reset? Perhaps some LG driver or software failed to install on a reboot and may be corrupted. If it is corrupted a simple reboot will not work. You must Hard Reset.
If that does not work:
Is it still under Warranty? I would take it back if I was you. If not take it to a shop to fix. Sorry but it is so.
I say this because you are not even rooted so the chances of being a hardware issue are much higher if the Hard Reset did not work. Perhaps a wire/connector got loose?
Good luck.

Hello All
I need some help here, I bought a used LG Optimus G E971 Carrier Rogers my phone is acting out for some reason, it opens apps and typing by it self, I open any app it tries to act on that, for example I open the phone dialer it tries to open contacts so worried, this is driven me bananas , the phone was not rooted when I bought it and I did a factory rest from phone settings before any thing, so the next step I did was root it, unlock boot-loader tried to install custom Rom no change its crazy, I am guessing its not a software problem and maybe a hardware problem but what part of the hardware? I cant return it because I bought as is and no warranty left and I have no receipt to return it for repair to LG, so the only two thing I can do is buy a new phone or try to fix it my self, so if it is a hardware problem I need help to figure out what I should start off buying first, I am really confused here I don't know what to do any help would be great full, thank you so much and Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any help you have given me:crying:
have you tried factory reset from the recovery process? i.e. while phone is off, trigger the factory rest
factory reset
Hello thanks for your idea, I tried while phone is off and no change, I tried a total wipe of Rom by means of reinstalling Rom, as well custom Rom no luck:crying: it must be a hardware problem, but what maybe a defected main board. its really to bad because other then that phone works great very phone. thank you

A factory reset usually fixes those sorts of problems.

That's what I thought as well so I did a factory reset and a hard reset with the same outcome... Everything in the settings can be accessed except the (about phone) so I'm completely lost on what to do

I think it's best you send it back to where you got it then and let them have a look. Otherwise you could try flashing your original firmware again incase your current one has missing components.

Send it it back is definitely not going to happen cause I've tried that lol... But to flash the firmware wouldn't I need USB debugging checked? I hope not cause i can't get to it and is there any tutorials that could give me a step by step instructions?

Hello XDA, this is my first post, this comunity is awesome and helped me a lot for a couple of years now.

is there any way so rescue my phone? thank you very much in advance! :crying:
here is a screenshot: (i cant paste link because i am new):crying:
I'd better let someone more qualified answer your query but I'm pretty sure your situation can be recovered easily. What happens if you try to reflash the firmware again with the correct settings? These phones are pretty hard to brick!

there probably is SOME way to fix it, i am sure, but the phone does not even boot into recovery.
Mediatek phones are hard to brick, haha
It is PROBABLY going to give a headache in order to find the needed files, flash the stuff again and etc using the proper way, but PROBABLY your phone will relive again. Try rooting and installing Eragon after a full wipe, if that option is available.

This may help.
I was in the same state when I accidentally flashed a the wrong logo.img file. I fixed it by doing a format on flashtool>stock rom>custom recovery>custom rom again!

Hi everyone,
I have an issue with my wife's OP3 that is driving me nuts.
Her phone runs stock OS without any changes but with an unlocked bootloader (just to be on the safe side i like to have an unlocked bootloader on all our devices).
I'm not sure if its related but I'm including it anyways she was playing a game on her phone and then she received a call and she answered it and tried to switch the call to speakerphone and the phone started rebooting right after booting the OS after 2-5 sec i would say "factory data reset" (see attached screenshot) and would reboot to the recovery.
then i would boot the phone again and the issue repeats itself.
so i used fastboot boot twrp.img to boot a recovery image and run a nadroid backup to a USB OTG just in case the phone is really hosed or whatnot.
I downloaded stock zip from oneplus's site and flashed it again from TWRP just to make sure its not some funky issue that happened to the os.
I even factory reset the phone from stock recovery and the issue would happen on the new phone setup wizard.
after a bunch of fiddling around I've flashed LineageOS 16 nightly and the phone boots normally and is fully usable but when i try to make or receive a call the phone app freezes and then crashes also sound doesn't seem to work when i try to play videos from youtube for example.
Any ideas what is the issue and how i can resolve it ?
thanks a bunch !!

Take a backup of your personal files and then wipe system, data, internal storage and both caches. Then flash OOS 5.0.8 and without adding any apps, check the calling function. If it still happens, then most likely a hardware issue.

If it's a hardware problem which part should I replace?
I already ordered a battery before this issue started and I was planning on replacing it once it gets here maybe I can replace one of the parts in order to resolve this issue

You will need to replace the main board if the issue persist.

Hmmm quite strange that you're having the same issue.
I didnt find a solution yet i gave her a temp replace phone that we had in a drawer somewhere.
Did your wife do anything out of the ordinary when it happened? are you having the same issue that LOS works but stock rom shows factory reset?
thanks.

No, She did not do anything out of the ordinary. But weirdly I have exactly the same things happening. Lineage works but no sound. Everything else factory resets. I have tried quite a few ROM'swithout any luck. So far the only ROM which worked for some time(1day) was 6.0.1 . I have spent quite a long time on this flashing various ROM and dont know what to do now.

Update: @ireaper4592 might have a point here. I have gone one level up and I tried msm v3.0 tool, thus doing a complete reinstall including firmware. The factory resetting stopped but the sound was not working (I thought that it could be the ROM and the security patches). So I updated to the latest ROM available from Oneplus and evrything has been working since. I did this last night so not sure how long this is going to stay like that. I will give it some time and update later. Wife is using it now!
what you will need to do is download the oneplus 3 recovery tool and put the phone into qualcolm mode and restore the phone that way. here is a link https://www.androidexplained.com/oneplus-3-unbrick-return-stock/

That tool/procedure will reset your phone. So you will lose everything on the phone. Take a backup beforehand.
The link posted in the post above yours contains the guide as well as the tools. It also has links to the original guide here on XDA.

I cant believe it i was sure this was a hardware issue which ended up being a software one that the MSM tool fixed.
When I have a few minutes to spare i'll write a full post on how I ended up resolving it with step by step instructions and how I did it without any dataloss.

I was about to update here with good news but wife's phone went back to restart loop the next day. I am not sure but probably triggered by her installing whatsapp and facebook. I put the phone away because I have already spend quite a lot of time behind this. Is your's still going? Please list the step by step procedure. Thanks
download from here https://mega.nz/#!zsdnkCDA!UyJRwbJK6kHTDpmesBYao0knaOTwbgu4dSiokV1XLYU then turn off phone run tool,connect phone with volume up pressed,should have a com in the list if so just click start thats it and wait for it to turn green or device restart
Received today the official European Pie Update. And now it doesn't let me unlock the phone with finger prints or code. And can't shut it down, only restart. Help appreciated.
I do have the same problem - it's not possible to unlock the phone. I restarted the phone into "safe mode" (long-press power button on screen and select "safe mode") but the problem persists.
I can get phone calls and SMS and all, but i only get a black screen if i try to unlock. Only way to get into the GUI is by restarting the phone...
If someone knows what to do besides a factory reset, I would highly appreciate it!
Same in Sweden. Didn´t do backup so hard reset is last thing i whant to try. I have a symbol on the screen i have never seen before, looks like a torx screw .Does anybodu know what that symbol is?
This is just awkward...
I couldn't wait any longer and had to reset my device and now it works again. I was able to login after each reboot so I could make a backup. But it's cumbersome anyway.
This is so bad from LG - after launching a "Software Upgrade Center" and waiting months to get android pie, this was the first time I had problems with an update... Never again LG...
Had to do a hard reset too. Then it worked
I have this problem, too
I'll wait a little bit, maybe we can find another solution, I don't want to wipe my phone, I was to lazy to createa backup
Might be related to the issue I'm having. Google Play Services have stopped working after a failed Play Store update this morning. Phone won't unlock properly with fingerprint, and is scrolling slowly. I'm in the US on Verizon. Updated on Friday and had been working fine until that corrupted update. G710vm20a

Someone please give advice, or help me fix it because i can't reset it... i have too much irreplaceable stuff on it.
Ok, I haven't had a problem, but I did a clean install of the leaked kdz from a few days ago. I had a fresh Google backup and sdcard, so I didn't loose anything.
