All Audio/Video Apps Crash Including Phone Dialer on Every ROM - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the D851 LG G3 phone that crashes on every media app that uses sound and it does this on every ROM I tried. This originally happened while running Lollipop. The phone automatically restarted while I was browsing the internet one day (I think) and when it turned back on, it no longer produced any sound through the speaker or the headphone output (no music, no alarms, no ringtones, etc). I later realized that the phone dialer would crash every time I'd try to dial a number. The phone would make a call but you could not hear or be heard on the other end, then the dialar would crash. Video players, music players, YouTube and similar apps would either not produce media or would crash all together. But the phone worked flawlessly in every other aspect. After trying many things, I did a factory reset thinking that it would definitely fix the issue but I was wrong. The phone kept doing the same thing. At that point I thought that the issue might be with a kernel or the radio or something outside the operating system so I rooted the phone and began trying different ROMs. At first I reverted back to Kit-Kat then I tried Cloudy then a few de-bloated custom Lollipops and I even tried flashing CM13 Marshmallow but non these got my phone working. I now essentially have a phone that can't call but can message, take pictures and run non-media apps and I'm desperate to fix it but I have no clue of what to do next. Does this sound familiar to anyone and what can I try next? Could this be a hardware issue?(although a hardware issue I think would seem to yield more severe glitches) Any help is very appreciated. Thanks!

I also have the same problem. Did you find any solutions?

Thanks for your answer, I have updated to MM but I dont think that I can flash that kernel, my version of the LG G3 is the G3 beat D722p, I am currently uzing CM13, I also tried the Xosp, in both cases the problem doesn't disappear.

Im sorry but there hasnt been any development for ur model ur best bet is to try flashing firmware stock or custom otherthan that i really dont know

[Q] I9190 glitches - what to do?

Good day,
I have unpleasant problem at my I9190. Every 5-7 minutes my device becomes to lag for 4-5 seconds. It doesn't matter if you watch a film or Youtube, play games, or just work with the interface. Every time periodically an image becomes to lag, but sound continues to work without problem. I tried to make wipes but it doesn't help. Also I tried to reinstall stock rom. Can somebody describe what is the reason of it? Root or what?
My previous I9190 (was changed because of the problems with screen) works without these glitches.
Appreciate if you will help me, these lags are really annoying.
Sounds like some hardware is causing those intermittent freezes. If you are certain reverting to stock everything and flashing in custom ROM + kernel still causes the issue then you might need to send the device in again.
I tried to flash CyanogenMod for interest and lags dissapear. After returning to stock they appeared again. Can't understand the reason, really. I tried to use smartphone with and without sim, with and without external card, with and without root, the result is the same. The only thing I can think that one of stock apps or processes makes these problems but who knows..

Strange music seek bar bug

I got a new m8 a few days ago and naturally I threw some music on it. No SD card. I get a bug where randomly my seek bar will indicated hours and be stuck. I can still seek on it but it won't move. This happens in every music player I tried (stock, Google, shuttle, poweramp) and I can't find a solution. No root no nothing phone is brand new. Could it be that a corrupted song was doing this? Please help it's annoying.
I believe it is just a 5.0.1 bug. Might be just specific to 5.0.1 on our M8s. Not sure if this is only non lollisense or if it occurs on GPE as well... all I know is that it is a known bug. Hasn't really bothered me much. What bothers me are the momentary slow loading I have in Play Music. Some times the pause button or next/previous buttons are unresponsive for like 10 seconds. THAT is super annoying.

I have EXACTLY the same issue!! I have had my M8 since launch last March, but this bug reared its ugly head when i updated to lollipop the other week. I find it very annoying too!! I have also created a post on this issue today. I've tried clearing cache memory etc but nothing has fixed it permanently.
for a temporary fix i find that if i run clean master it clears the bug, but it comes back later that day.
if you do manage to solve, please can you let me know too.
Same issue
I have the exact same issue too.
Htc One M8 unlocked version, no root, no nothing.
It happens with all music players too (even soundcloud).
So I don't think it's related to a music file.
It only happened after I updated to Android 5.0.
It's so annoying. If anyone knows a fix please share it!
I have this issue too i've tested Viper ,Maximus Insert Coin and even on Sky Dragon and i always have this bug. However the bug usually occures on .mp3 song not .m4a
i have another problem. sometimes when i want to play music it wont and i need to reset the cache of the music player or restart my phone befor it works again. I am stock rom and not unlocked or rooted. Until now i experienced this bug only under google play music, cause i love the design of it too much to change to another
So this issue is present on ALL Lollipop roms?! Can someone port over the music player from KitKat or something?
If you are S-Off, you can flash the H/K - Boomsound switcher. Choosing H/K fixes it. And it sounds better than Boomsound IMO.
You can also flash it if you are S-On and pick H/K, but you won't be able to flash the H/K ADSP. It should still fix the issue though.
So after further using the phone I don't get this bug when I have NUplayer checked in dev options. But that makes my phone register audio on all the time and it drains my juice so I use awesomeplayer and ignore the bug

Desperate! Phone Sound not working

Hi there,
I have been using the CloudyG3 2.5 ROM on my G3 (D-855) for the past month and something strange is happening to the phone. I must admit, the phone fell of a couple of days ago, but this shouldn't have any relation to my issues. All of a sudden, the sound just stopped working everywhere, even when I use the Music Player it gives me a Playback error and the Messaging and Phone Apps crash all the time. Even ''system'' crashes. Then I decided to use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 and flashed a stock ROM. This did not solve the issues with sound and Messaging and Phone crashing all the time. I have a SIM card in the phone but it doesn't allow me to make phone calls, it just hangs. Weirdly enough, I get mobile internet and full bars of reception everywhere I go. WiFi also works fine.
Please help a brother out, I really don't know what to do at this point!
Kind Bump
Tried different stock and custom ROMS, but the same processes and apps crash, mainly System process and com.android.phone.
Anyone have a clue? I am really stuck as I can't use my phone for anything.

S4 acting really buggy after using several ROMs?

Hello everyone,
A few weeks ago I was running an optimized version of CM 12.1 on my TMobile Galaxy S4 (this one) http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-orig-develop/exclusive-antaresone-alucard24-s-t3066696
It was working completely fine until I downloaded and installed an OTA update for it, and ever since then my phone has been acting wonky (not sure if updating actually caused it, but it happened around the same time)
Some of the problems included:
- Phone consistently crashing/freezing. I need to reboot multiple times a day to get over it.
- Soundcloud sometimes doesn't work. Usually it just doesn't load even though I have LTE, and other times it shows the song is playing but I don't hear anything. After a hard reboot, it works temporarily. Phone also crashes occasionally when I open Soundcloud
- Youtube also sometimes doesn't work. It's the same problem where it doesn't load even though I'm in WiFi. Also crashes occasionally when I open it
- Music player sometimes doesn't play songs I have saved
After experiencing all this, I took it as an omen to upgrade my ROM so I downloaded and flashed Resurrection Remix 6.0 for my S4 and I experienced the same problems. As a final straw, I downloaded and flashed a rooted stock 4.4.2 firmware (which I'm running now). The phone doesn't crash as much thankfully but I still have problems with Soundcloud, Youtube, music player, and just persistent freezing.
My phone was fully functional and suddenly I experienced this array of problems. If anybody can help me out or point me in a right direction, I'd be incredibly grateful as I love this phone and I don't want to abandon it (well...until the S7 comes out)
ODIN back to stock with the full firmware.

Okay, thank you very much I'm downloading it as we speak.
I was wondering if you have any idea of what the cause of these problems are as I'm looking to experiment with more ROMs in the near future but I don't want to make the same mistake again.

Can be a variety of things depending if you tweak stuff, install xposed, etc.
Generally if you make sure to do full wipes between roms you should be OK...
One more thing to check might be your microSD card. They can go bad on occasion. Try running without or with a different one and see if issues persist.

i noticed this with my s4 as well, but mine has to do with the sim card error. when i'm on stock tw 4.4.4 i rarely get a sim card error. then i flash other roms and i get the sim card error more frequently. for instance i just installed the Resurrection Remix rom last night an i've already experienced the sim card error at least 6 times already. i really like this rom so i'll have to deal with it, but if it gets the error too frequently, i don't mind going back to stock KK 4.4.4.

LG G3 Touch Feedback and System Sound not working

Hello XDA,
I have reviewed everything that is out there on the internet and have not been able to resolve my issue.
I have LG G3 Rogers version, unlocked, never rooted. It used to work fine before. I started noticing my Youtube videos from the app stopped playing giving an error message (Error code is different every time) Youtube videos from the browser play but without sound, Instagram videos/live streams/stories (anything that has sound; IG videos with no sound when posted by the user works fine) stopped playing, spotify wouldn't play music but the timer of the track would keep going. This is with headphones, without headphones. Doesn't matter. Then when I restart my phone, the issue is completely fixed, for some time until it starts again. The way I know it will mess up is my pattern unlock sound goes out first. Then my lock sound and eventually certain key taps are not recognized. But again, when I restart the phone, everything is fine. I use Action Launcher 3, I've tried without it. I have factory reset my phone and I am running Marshmallow.
Any ideas? Much appreciated.
Thank you.

If you have been using it for more than three years in a row, The android version wears out... (gets old)...
you might have to check for system updates or (in rare cases (or) you cannot tolerate kinda case) you can flash another rom on your LG G3.
Android ROMs give you a better battery life (which also eventually wears out after three years of usage) and better performance...
Hello,
I got a new battery about 6 months ago so not so worried about that part. Is there any to troubleshoot and deduce what could be causing this issue?
Hello,
Quick update: I have not had any issues with the phone for about 2-3 days now. I had pattern unlock set on my device with rain dew drops as the dots. Since I've removed the dew drops, this issues has stopped. Currently I have knock code set on as screen lock. I will now try pattern unlock again, but with basic dots only to see if this occurs again. Keep you posted.
