D850 tweaking out randomly - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was on a 2-3 week old build of CM13, was working fine until this morning.
It started freaking out when I opened gmaps, it'd freeze in regular intervals, about once every second for maybe half a second. You could hear it in the music playing. I closed gmaps and it 90% went away. I tried flashing 08/05 CM13.1 and now it keeps crashing randomly, and sometimes when I try to boot or go into recovery, this weird green "crash handler" screen comes up and gives me the option to reboot or go into download mode.
Factory reset and installed 8/5 again and it's still crashing randomly for no apparent reason. There aren't any apps that should be doing this, nothing like kernel auditor or any of that installed currently.
Ideas?

Very weird problem..

I have been running the Petes nightly rom for a couple months now and have been loving it. However last night something really strange happened. I was watching tv and turned my screen on to unlock the phone and when I did I noticed about 3 force close messages and I never get fc. I tried to open other apps and almost all of them force closed. I rebooted the phone and same thing. I rebooted into recovery and chose the fix permissions option and when I rebooted it seemed better at first besides a few apps still fc. Then I noticed that all my homescreens were deleted except my default one which still had my app folders on it. I am running francos kernel with the updater. I have been on milestone 2 for about a week now and hadnt had any issues. It's almost like I did a wipe data on the phone because I had to sign back in to certain apps as well. Any idea for what could have happened? The only changes I made to the phone yesterday was updating 3 apps and I used the settings in francos updater to drop all the voltages down 25mv but I don't see how either could have done anything.

Force closing/Sound issues

I am having a bunch of issues with my device, some of which I had with my first device, which i smashed the screen.
I get system FC, and many apps, mainly twitter FC alot. This happened alot with my first device as well.
If I open the camera while music is playing (Poweramp), sound comes thru the speaker for a few seconds. Embarrassing as i take the train.
Screen rotation takes forever.
I get vibrating notifications randomly with nothing new incoming. LED doesnt indicate a notification though.
Any thoughts?

When's the last time you rebooted your phone? Cleared the cache? Cleared davlink? Are you rooted? Running a custom rom? Installed a different kernel? More information about your set up is needed.

Stock. Cleared cache, reboot a few times a week. What is davlink?
Still having this call log issue as well. Only get 3 days of logs, and not even all the calls I make:

Phone Randomly Crashing

I am currently running the latest build of the PacMan rom for my Sprint S3, but my problem didnt start there. As over the course of a few weeks my phone has been randomly crashing while running build 7 of Slimkat. It started crashing when i wanted to take a picture with the AOSP camera (when i hit the camera button and then it would shut off). Then it progressed to just crashing trying to use accuweather, or even when the screen was auto-rotating in my SMS app. So finally i just backed up my important bits and made a clean wipe into Wicked X 8.0 TW rom (because i'm on Ting and TW roms initially work on their network and wanted to export, or to just copy down the settings of, the APN xml to use in AOSP roms). After playing around with that for 20 minutes, i didn't experience any fc's or reboots. Though i did not use the camera in that time (i forgot to check). To which i then wiped it into PacMan rom that im at now. Which at the moment seems fine to do everything, except it will shut off if i want to OPEN the camera (doesn't let me use it at all). Plus i did have it crash once rotating with the play store up...
So im kinda lost, i wonder if this is just an issue with the camera in the rom, or if it might be a bigger issue with the phone itself. As ive been having the same random error's with two roms and i dont see anyone having FC's with pacman rom with the camera.
more testing done
So i have also attempted to odin completely back to stock and i have a stock rooted rom with nothing touched. The sudden shut-offs still happen and occur randomly. I installed logcat and what seems to be throwing error's is the accelerometer. Plus at first when i flash a new rom it seems to work ok with no problems for the first day, then suddenly start showing symptoms the next. Plus ive had it shut off during bootup too while going through the sprint 4g animation screen. Though i have not had it die on me in recovery, so thats a thing.... Plus it will rotate no problem half the time, and then ive seen it die rotating to use my keyboard.
So at this point i feel like its actually a hardware option. If it is the accelerometer, is it easy to fix (i guess re solder the connections if they're broke?)? or should i just try and replace the main board?

[D855] "Cannot connect to Camera"

I don't know what's happened, seemingly over night my camera no longer works. I was running Cloudy 2.5 and I wiped it and installed CM12, still no luck. Now I've got it running PA and STILL the camera refuses to work in any apps. I installed FV-5 camera and it just crashes when I launches it. Snapchat tells me to restart the phone but after a few attemps, I can get the front camera to work. I'm starting to think this is a hardware problem as I've flashed new ROMS etc. Has anyone else had a problem like this?
edit: I just installed and launched Snapchat again and when I switched from the front camera to the back, it worked for half a second and then froze. Restarted the app and now it seems to be working.

I had this issue on my g2 all roms nogo so i flashed back stock kdz and it worked then flashed all same romsa again and it actually work so im asuming it was some stupid issue from the factory. But mine done it from the start on stock rom i thought it was a hardware issue it was a warantie replacement i didnt know i had the pbone for about a week and went to take a pic and bam so like i said i tried many roms nogo a fresh new tot
I'll give it a go because it still seems broken. It's working sometimes, but in snap chat the image is flipped upside down and there's a purple tint. Exiting the app and opening it again fixes it, but most of the time it's not working.
This happened to me, but on a different device - it's a CM bug. You could download an app called "restart camera" by temasek from playstore to see if it helps.

Mine was on a ls980 sprint g2 and a stock. And stock based roms never tried cm really
I have LG G3 *D855*... My phone worked fine and fast 2 and half years, no problem, warranty after 2 years was over, but I even didnt think about other phone, because I realy like LG G3 and there is nothing very better created yet + I used mobile case and phone is in perfect condition. Ok, after 2,5 years, phone never was swiped, it was overloaded with files, photos, apps... One day, camera start crashing and sometimes I got some lagz. I decided to root the phone, installed Cloudy 3G, camera worked only first 10mins, then crashed like in stock version. I found one flashable file, called camera fix lgg3... It fixed camera, no lagz on camera, no problem with crashing, flashlight worked, everything was fine. But damn, that Cloudy3G was so unstabble, sometimes phone freezed for a while, sometimes it restarted itself, sometimes apps crashed, like facebook, whatsup and other... But... The biggest deal was with battery... Battery drain was awfully high... If phone was in standby mode, battery taked only one day, but... If I used any app or just watched videos on youtube, I was able to see how % was dropping in minutes. It was like 1 min = 1-2% gone. So, I flashed CM14... Nice mod, I liked, takked few hours to know the mode and customize it for my needs. Camera worked first day, then crashed again... Actualy... It worked sometimes, like 1 time from 10 attempts with phone restart. But, for short time, sometimes 1min, sometimes 30mins. I didnt find any fix, cause that first fix was only for stock camera version... Decided to flash other rom... Fulmics was next, worked fine, mode is cool, stable, battery life is very good, almost like stock version. Camera worked for 2 days, then the same problem... Cannot connect to camera or camera is busy...
From starting, I was able to get into camera by restarting phone, but after few days, no restarts helped.
What I can do now? Any suggestions? Ohh, and sometimes camera is purple and shows upsidedown, before crashing.
All, what I can imagine to do, is try another ROM or try to swipe everything and get back to original stock version. But its not so difficult like installing custom roms. So, it will help or somebody has other solution?

Camera cannot be started

After about 1,5 weeks of usage, the camera cannot be started anymore since a few hours.
Rebooted a few times already. There is a popup stating that the "camera could not be started, either reboot or restart the camera".
It worked a few hours ago and since then nothing happened with the phone.
I cleared the cache of the "camera" app and made a fresh start. Other camera apps also do not work.
What happened? :/
EDIT: I did a factory reset and the camera is working again...
Just out of curiosity what build were you on when this happened. I only noticed the problem after I updated to the latest update version ending in .225.
The only way I was able to fix it was by powering off the phone and then powering it back on because clearing the cache/restarting it didn't work. It worked fine for a while after the first power off but then it started giving me the same error after a few hours. So now I powered off a second time and it's been about 12 hours since and so far no issues....
Next time, take a bug report from developer settings, and post it in their official forum.
Had the same problem twice in the first week of the phone, looks like hang after U use the super slowmo and dont close the app. at least was both times after using the slowmo and just locking the phone
Just started getting this error in the last few days. Most of the time a reboot fixes the issue. Sometimes it takes several reboots. BTW, I did the most recent software update a couple weeks ago.
Had the same issue, it also causes a battery drain.
The app BetterBatteryStats showed a 100% kernel wakelocks of the process "Sony,camera_modules".
My battery drained from 100 to 40% in 4 hours with just 10 minute screentime.
I've expierenced camera cannot be started error now 8 times, rebooting temporary solves the problem...
Hopefully a OTA update will solve this problem.
Hi, i have the same problem with latest .225 built
Camera works but black screen, and after 3 or 4 times crashed.
The only fix is wait an update by sony??
Me too. Same problem. I had to Factory reset. It pissed me off....
Now sometimes it appears but i reboot and then goes back .
I confirm i have the same problem with the latest firmware but i have it one time with an old one to. For me it's happens when i close the camera app while i have the phone on horizontal. Some time to recover i just open the camera with the phone horizontally but sometimes i need to clear data and restart the phone to make it work again XD
Maybe the wrong thread, but is there a way to take motion photos (like in gcam) on the XZ2 Compact?
