Hello,
The screen of my moto 360 goes randomly off and vibrates at that moment, just like when you dim the screen with your hand., but now I'm using it. It's very frustrating because I can't even open an app normally or the screen goed of and I need to start over again. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Having same issues with mine.
Really strange and really annoying. Its like when u cover it with palm. It vibrates and screen goes off but ur in the middle of trying to do something. Anyone else having this problem?
Glad I'm not the only one having this issue, just got my Moto 360 today. I'll be in the Settings or other parts of the watch and it will just randomly turn off. It is really frustrating to deal with.
I have the same issue. I have pretty hairy arms so I wonder if the hairs are somehow triggering the capacitive touch screen.
you guys try to do a reset on the watch yet?? not just a reboot..
Any updates on this? I'm having the same issue
Any updates? I have the same issue I think it happend after udate to 5.0.2 but I'm not sure.
I'm also having the same problem. I picked up a new Moto 360 during the BBY sale rush of the last couple of days. At first it was buggy but the screen seemed to stay on while working with it. Then it had a system update, and since then most bug issues (like the faces not updating with the companion app changes) went away, however from that point the screen constantly shuts off, usually with a little buzz, while I'm interacting with the watch.
For instance, regarding the sensor used to turn off the watch if you palm it. I thought maybe that was it, so I was looking for a way to turn that off. I went into settings, and spend about 10 times of the screen shutting off before I could get to "accessibility settings" just to see if that might be there.
This problem occurs whether I'm wearing the watch or not (trying to eliminate arm hair or similar), and has occurred after a factory reset and re-pair with my phone (Note 4). Ambient sensor settings don't help, because all that does is make the screen go dark instead of off, but it still reverts back to the clock no matter what I was doing.
Any ideas? Any way to turn off a sensor perhaps, maybe in a custom ROM? Since this seems to be associated with an update near as I can tell, I wonder if a fix is coming from Moto or if it's too rare of an issue to be on their radar.
As an update, I replaced the watch with a new one, and this new watch is perfect. It started on outdated software which I left on for a bit to make sure it didn't show the problem, then I updated. Still no issues. I think there is a chance the problem is software regardless, but either way it must be a small portion of watches and isn't necessarily tied to any particular outside software influence (phone model or android version, or installed apps as NONE of those things changed). My advice to people reading this thread is to exchange the watch or get an RMA if possible.
Same Issue
Hi All,
I have the same issue. Sent it back for repair so let's see...
Same issue here as well
I've had the LG G3 through Sprint since last September. All was fine and great with it with Android 4.4.2. Ever since the 5.0.1 upgrade I've had some pretty consistent issues.
1. Laggy on the home screen - hitting home means maybe 2-3 full seconds of blank screen before the icons populate and the screen returns to the designated home screen as opposed to where it was when I entered an app.
2. It destroys app processing VERY quickly - too aggressively. What is the point of 'multitasking' if I leave a game/app to respond to a text or gchat and use the menu/multitasking menu to get back to that game/app and it restarts it like I hadn't been JUST USING IT.
3. ALL BROWSERS on the phone sometimes ***** to me that they can't connect to a Proxy Server. Really? I'm not set up for proxying ANYWHERE. There's also no config to specify that or to specifically turn it on or off.
4. My LTE/3G sucks now. It will consistently downgrade to 3G or just drop all connections. Turning off/on mobile data or doing restarts only sometimes fixes it. I take the Metra to work (above ground train) and before the upgrade I didn't have these issues. I'm also having this issue RIGHT NOW and I'm on the wifi at work. It won't connect.
5. Smart Cleaning doesn't work. It grinds for a minute and then pops me over to the main screen or to the multitasking screen. WTF?
It also takes a while to restart. And I've done all the System Updates (PRL, profile, firmware etc).
What I have NOT done is a factory reset - I just don't want to go through the hassle of that if I don't have to. Though I'm certainly open to the suggestion if it'll solve problems for me. I'm just not understanding if that would work if there's some underlying software/antenna/connection issues.
PLEASE - suggestions are very welcome! I'm very frustrated with this phone. I wish I'd rooted at 4.4.2 and gone with a custom ROM.
TL;DR version
Having laggy issues - what does a Factory Reset gain me in this circumstance? Will it actually fix these kinds of issues? (see above message)
I was having the same exact issues. I finally bit the dust and did a factory reset and it's running 200% smoother now.
Hi guys I have a problem with the touch response on my G4 (H815)
Basically when I use multi touch (and sometimes just normal scrolling) in certain apps the phone will recognize screen taps at the bottom of the screen at the home and back buttons and sometimes other areas, I have used the 'multi touch app' from the play store to confirm that this is indeed the case. This is extremely annoying as apps exit by themselves because of this. It doesn't happen every single time either, just sometimes but often enough for it to be annoying and so may be hard to prove to my carrier or LG if i send it back cause they may say there's nothing wrong with it.
It seems like a hardware issue and in that case the phone should still be under warranty right? I got it in August and haven't rooted or done anything invasive.
There are many people having issues with the G4 touchscreen. Check with your carrier and see if you can exchange it or what your options are.
Hi,
Same problem for me, the back and home button seems possessed. Se this video dropbox.com/s/540ozmvdnhemv8f/MOV_0005.mp4?dl=0 for an example. I bought the phone Thursday last week and it have been this pretty much since unboxing. After a factory reset the phone acts normal for a couple of minutes or hours, but goes back to that stage were I can't use the phone at all. I've managed to update to the latest software but the problem didn't go away. I'll try to contact the supplier I bought the phone from and exchange it tomorrow.
Since I do not have enough posts to post external links you have to figure out for youself what to type infront of the "link" I included.
Hi everyone,
I have 2 Galaxy S8+ from Verizon and here are my issues:
Past issues:
One of them did not come with the Galaxy Apps store (Not the plays store), and that phone also experienced the DQA issue
Current issues:
If I turn on Fingerprint gestures, the fingerprint sensor will stop working, this was an issue I had from the day I got the phone and has continued even through the updates. Here's a thread I made about it a while ago : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/help/fingerprint-sensor-t3595614
My internal speaker has detached, or at least I think that is the issue, as sometimes when I am in a phone call and shake the phone just a little bit, it will either start making a weird buzz sound or completely cut off the sound. Shaking it again will fix it, that's why I think it's a physical issue. I haven't dropped my phone and just in case I ever do, I have a case and a screen protector on it, and neither of them (phone, case, screen protector) have any damage marks on them.
The Biggest Issue: Currently this is the most annoying bug I am experiencing is that whenever I go to lock screen and security in the setting app, it crashes the settings app. I also can't use the search function in the settings app, as it crashes the app withing a few seconds. The lock screen and security is the only menu in which I experience this, I am 99% sure this is due to me turning on Secure startup. I had it turned on a few days after I got the phone and it worked great, I had to turn it off once, about a month ago in order to get a quicker boot. After that I was experiencing issues turning it back on (meaning I turned it on, rebooted the phone and it would not work) , after some persistence, I was able to get it to work and it has worked and still works.
One thing to mention is that I had done the most recent system update, I am not sure this issue was caused by at, since the inability so search in the setting menu has happened prior to the latest update.
I have tried everything other than a full factory reset (wiping all cache, wiping apps cache, reset setting, reset network settings), which I refuse to do, It is absolutely unacceptable for me to pay this much for this phone and have so many issues with it, I have factory resetted my phone (Samsung's recommendation) in order to fix the first issue listed above, multiple times and it did not work.
At this point I really don't know what to do, Samsung support has been useless in this, I don't wish to replace my phone right now as I need it to much to even give up for one day, If anyone has any advice/fix other than factory resetting, I'll happily try it.
Thank you,
GGgamer16
Sounds like a factory reset is needed. I just tried all you mentioned with zero problems on the newest update w/ navbar options and experienced none of that. Speaker problem is most likely hardware related.
Anyone had any luck getting rid of the wifi disconnect? The issue where wifi disconnects showing a ! next to the wifi symbol on the status bar?

You try changing your WiFi channel? Using 5ghz or 2.5ghz? I use Wifi 100% of the time I'm home and never have any issues with disconnects.

Yeah I have tried changing channels. It didn't matter. I'm on 2.4 GHz.
I found a possible fix from another forum. I changed my wifi encryption from wpa2 AES/tkip to wpa2 tkip only last night and was rock solid after that point. I didn't have any more wifi issues... Just wanted to mention this change for other people. I usually got 5+disconnects every night. I'm gonna try just the AES option tonight and see how it acts.
My LG G7 is a Verizon Wireless model that is not rooted. Over the last few weeks, the fingerprint sensor has been working only part of the time. Mostly, when I hit it with the phone locked, it will do nothing. Then I push the power button to get the screen to light up, and it leaves me at the knock code screen. 95% of the time, the fingerprint sensor will work at this time (yes I know I need to use the knock code when I boot the phone, before the sensor will work). A couple of days ago, the sensor would not work at all, so I went in and deleted some stored fingerprints. When I tried to enter new ones, I instantly got a message on the screen telling me the sensor was not working and to contact a customer center.
So, I did a factory reset and set the phone up as a new phone, figuring some setting was wrong, or an app messed with things. No luck. Still a partially working fingerprint sensor. Strange thing is, I then booted into safe mode and the sensor works 100% of the time. In regular mode though I may be able to wake the phone 5 times in a row, and then for the next 10 times nothing.
A short time after these issues started, I started getting a WiFi issue in that my phone will not connect to my work's "Public_Access" WiFi. It connects up to my home WiFi, and other WiFi, but not at work anymore. My tablet connects at work, and everyone else's phone connects, but not mine. I get a "Obtaining IP Address.." message, and every once in a while it will flash the word "Saved", but no luck in connecting. Signal strength is "good" to "excellent". Link speed is normally around 144 Mbps or higher, frequency is either 2.4 or 5Ghz, and security is "None". None for proxy, and I'm DHCP. If I go to static settings, the IP and gateway look like numbers from home.
Anyone else having these issues? anyone found any workarounds?

By any chance are you using VZW Messenger?
I'm having the same issue with the fingerprint sensor. The only workaround I've found is to reboot the phone, then it will start functioning again for a little awhile. Very bizarre.
I also recently started having issues with the fingerprint scanner. Since a lot of people have this issue I'm starting to think it is software related.

By any chance are you using VZW Messenger? It was an update to VZW Messenger that caused the issue for me. Next update resolved it.

I do have Messenger on the phone. It is NOT set as my default messaging app as I do not like it. Only reason I have it is because too many of my colleagues send me messages through it, which I can't open any way else that I know of. I'll look for an update and see if that helps. If not, I'll delete it and check again.
Thank,
Andy
Last update to Messenger I have is from April 9th. I looked for a more recent update but no luck.
Just deleted Messenger, and rebooted. After the initial need to enter the knock code, I slept the phone by tapping the power button (sorry if my terminology is off). 4 different fingers then and no joy (from the sleeping phone). If I hit the power button, the screen lights up and leaves me at what I guess is the lock screen showing recent email and calendar events. From there, I can successfully (still about 95% of the time) use the fingerprint sensor or the knock code to unlock the phone. But from a screen-off, sleeping mode, the fingerprint is still in a maybe it will work, maybe it won't situation.
If I have the same problem for about two weeks approximately install youtube vanced and yowhatsapp I do not know if it will be that but it is very annoying I hope lg update soon but I do not think I have the Indian version
Have same model and had same issues. I recently found out that I was missing 3 updates. December update started these issues. I'm now on the 10j version and so far haven't noticed the issue. But it's only been a day or so.

I am also on 10j, and the issues are still there in regards to the fingerprint sensor....although for some unknown reason, after weeks of no WiFi at work, my phone finally decided to hook up to my work WiFi yesterday afternoon, and this morning when I got into work it instantly hooked up to it again. So, hopefully the WifI issue has been rectified. I guess I should somewhat count my blessings as WiFi is more important to me than fingerprint sensor, in the big scheme of things!
There has to be a software/firmware issue going on though as the sensor seems to be most troublesome when the phone is sleeping. Once the lockscreen is on, although there are still issues, it works 95% of the time. That makes me believe it's not a hardware issue.
I have Verizon also. It may help if all of you download the latest kdz for Verizon and reflash it vs factory reset. Using the lg up method by lamemonster. I do it all the time when I cross flash kdz as well as flashing back to Verizon. Hope this helps.
My G7 EAW is the same, fingerprints flicker. However, I removed the back cover and corrected the fingerprint, and it worked normally

can you link to or specify that exact flashing method? nothing works for me, second piece of new hardware, no results.
