[T-Mobile LG G3] aw1974:
Bought mine in July when it came out on AT&T. Have a crack around the mic and I have the black one as well. Never used a case and never dropped.
[T-Mobile LG G3] yammizz:
So its safe to say we all agree LG did a poor job with the quality of material they picked ..Damn Oversea builder's lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] Richieboy67:
Well they said it was a limited batch so they must have addressed the issues.
[T-Mobile LG G3] BAM1789:
Just found out that this was an LG issue, now I am worried about trading in the phone for my Nexus 6 pre-order from ATT. Has anyone here gone into an ATT store and have them replace it?
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
I work for T-Mobile. All the warranty/insurance devices that are sent out are refurbs and come straight from the manufacturer's warehouse.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Vismis:
It's a spy!!!!!! Why do I always think anyone from T-Mobile will somehow find out who I am and void my warranty
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
Lolol. Trust me, we're not dbags. But there will always be those one offs. And we dont simply void warrantys. Just put it back to stock and you'll have nothing to worry about. Im that guy all the customers love. :p
[T-Mobile LG G3] DrDexterMorgan:
I have a hairline crack under my headphone jack but it really doesn't bother me. I couldn't justify sending my phone off for a repair just for that. But, this is good to know and I am glad LG is doing something about it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] yammizz:
Whats up bud mine is. 407
[T-Mobile LG G3] tarroyo:
Bought my G3 black/grey model first week of release in july, Few days ago I noticed small cracks thru the ir blaster and the plastic piece underneath it above the screen, device is stock rooted I'd rather keep it then get a 'refurbished' device.

Regardless LG should replace all damaged units, especially for a $600 phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] johnomaz:
Nice to hear. I noticed it on mine last week and figured it was something I did. I'm very careful with my phone but hey, anything is possible. Maybe I'll swing by TMobile after work. If its a warranty issue, thats $5 for a replacmenet.

Also, I have cracks on both the IR blaster and the bottom mic.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
Anyone else been able to get LG to repair their phone? I haven't even bothered with mine (cracks around IR blaster AND microphone), but might try to go through them when the Nexus 6 I ordered finally arrives.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Rafajafa:
Is just the usb cacble that comes with the phone. Using a different one solves the problem.
[T-Mobile LG G3] iggie94:
I just got off the phone with LG. My G3 has developed a small crack around the IR blaster. I was told my G3 would be covered under the warranty just as long as the phone has no physical or water damage. The phone has none of that. Here's hoping no more cracks form after I get the phone back. I've been wanting to Jump to the Nexus 6 but I'm going to wait until T-Mobile is stocked back up on 64 GBs. :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G3] NJ_RAMS_FAN:
same here. thou my phone has some scratches & scuffs around the bezel. Probably from the hard shell case. I wonder if they'll claim that as physical damage (like I dropped the phone)..
[T-Mobile LG G3] iggie94:
I'm not sure, man. :confused: What kind of case do you have? My G3 is still mint and I've had it in a case since day one. I have a Spigen Slim Armor case.

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

The funny thing is that the rep from LG had no clue about the cracks forming around the IR blaster. He only knew about the cracks forming on the bottom around the headphone jack and microphone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] NJ_RAMS_FAN:
I was using the spigen ultra fit (slim) case but took it off a few weeks back. I just don't like cases!! lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] iggie94:
I feel you. The G3 is a real beauty. I only use the G3 without a case when I'm at home. :p
[T-Mobile LG G3] knite75:
I got the infamous crack around the bottom mic near the charging port. I requested an RMA and sent my G3 into LG (Texas) last week. Hope to get it back next week. I'll keep y'all posted.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
Excellent! I need to do the same. Did you call LG to get the RMA?
[T-Mobile LG G3] knite75:
Yes, I called LG's toll free 800 number, and they promptly issued an RMA with prepaid FedEx shipping label etc.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
Oh! I didn't know they did pre-paid shipping labels! I didn't want to deal with this and pay for shipping, so I'll definitely be doing this.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bcoop8:
So is LG making you send in your phone and be without it for a few days? If LG recognizes this as a "known issue" then Verizon will send me a replacement before I send my current phone back. Anyone have any luck with getting a replacement without having to send your phone in and be without it for a week?
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
I submitted a support ticket through the LG US site and it was approved very quickly. One of the e-mails says this:

" I apologize for this inconvenience but we have processed a repair authorization for your D851WH so that our technicians can have their assessment if it has a manufacturers defect"

They don't come out and say it's a known issue, but it feels like they do know there might be one.

I have been using a Moto X for the past few weeks so I don't mind sending the G3 in. While it was my main phone, I did not even bother looking into sending it in because it is annoying to have to be without a phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] knite75:
Got my phone back on Saturday (about a week and half duration).

No documentation of what's replaced, but from visual inspection it looks like LG replaced the display and the complete housing bezel.
[T-Mobile LG G3] brigantti:
you still have warranty with lg even if you are a second owner i bought mine second hand and lg is repairing mine now im waiting for return
[T-Mobile LG G3] twiifm:
I just got mine replaced and they wiped my. Cant root w purpledrake w 10R. Does anyone know how to root 10R?
[T-Mobile LG G3] knite75:
I followed this step by step, and succeeded.

[T-Mobile LG G3] xlxcrossing:
You can't root 10r but you can flash the kdz file for 10m then use purpledrake.
[T-Mobile LG G3] twiifm:
Actually I found a way to do it. There is a thread in development board. You do temp root then and push recovery
[T-Mobile LG G3] deron37129:
When you send your phone off to be repaired are they sending the same phone or one thats already been fixed how long is this process
[T-Mobile LG G3] DocWalt:
I shipped mine in, and it's being returned after one day at their facility. If it was actually repaired, I don't know. The status is: "RA closed, Unit shipped back to customer" :confused:

Did anyone see that for a repaired phone or does that mean they're just shipping it back without repairing it?
[T-Mobile LG G3] deron37129:
Check you imeis
[T-Mobile LG G3] DocWalt:
Will do when I receive it. I don't really care one way or the other, they specifically said they'd wipe all the data anyway, so it doesn't much matter for me.
[T-Mobile LG G3] knite75:
You get the same phone back. I confirmed by checking the IMEI. 2 weeks turn around.
[T-Mobile LG G3] DocWalt:
I just got my phone back, no more cracks. It's the exact same phone too, it has the same wear on the little bump between the camera lens and buttons.
[T-Mobile LG G3] MehruNisa:
I want to buy G3 coz its best phone,

but I am scared due to the crack,

some people said that crack is reappearing after replacement,

coz material & design will stay same ...

so it just depends on luck / usage / heat of screen or climate?

some say its only on white models,

some say its just limited batches,

there is no clear answer,

Kindly provide your input and serial,

mainly we want to know that all d850 have same material or different,

Thanks,
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Cracks after replacement? Wtf
[T-Mobile LG G3] DocWalt:
I haven't heard of the cracking after replacement.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sushi829:
Has anybody sent a rooted G3 back to LG for this repair? Any issues?
[T-Mobile LG G3] NEXUSg4:
I got cracks on g3 too. I wonder if it will affect performance? Why are you guys returning it
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
It won't affect performance, but it's an annoying cosmetic issue. I finally got mine back last week, and it's as good as new. There was plastic on the screen too, so I don't know if they replaced that too.
[T-Mobile LG G3] djrip:
Would having both cracks, one on top and the second one at the bottom be a possible cause why my back plate is not snapping in properly?
[T-Mobile LG G3] helikido:
Guys if i flash back to stock with lgs flashing tool would i be okay to send my phone in for repair??
[T-Mobile LG G3] cheesyFbaby:
I've had my phone since release for T-Mobile and am jus noticing this now since I'm reading the discussion. Would T-Mobile or LG honor a repair or exchange?
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Too late for a exchange
[T-Mobile LG G3] 3165dwayne:
known issue

since it is a know issue they should replace it though.
[T-Mobile LG G3] MehruNisa:
I have taken the risk and bought white one,

its certainly the best phone ... especially if you have lollipop then its really beast,
[T-Mobile LG G3] ScrapMaker:
I have the black/grey from Sprint, and it is a replacement I received about 3 months ago. I did not experience the crack before, but now I'm seeing it on my bottom microphone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Kawaisa:
I have a white one made in August and no cracks yet
[T-Mobile LG G3] Asad Yousufi:
LG Singapore replacing

I got cracks on top as well as on bottom too! I hardly use microphone port and often use Bluetooth headset. I called LG and they said no warranty for physical damage but they still want to see if it is the mic crack issue. I went there and they agreed to replace it just after looking at it.

They said in 3 days it will be replaced, what will be replaced set or the casing I have no idea but they actually owned the problem and never ask stupid questions, so people in Singapore should be happy . If LG keeps its Customer service Like this, I will definitely check LG first before purchasing any phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sykozylot:
I took it into a tmobile store, told them it was a known issue, and they are mailing me out a new G3. I'll mail mine in when it's received. $20 shipping.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Kawaisa:
refurb
[T-Mobile LG G3] VivaLaCam92:
yupp, i make it a dfinite point every time that i either want my exact phone fixed or a new one. i can't deal with getting something that was previously owned with a garbage warranty.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Refurb
[T-Mobile LG G3] MisterRio:
Anyone?
[T-Mobile LG G3] sykozylot:
I received the replacement. Looks good. If it's a refurb I can't tell.

Anyway, It's on D85110r. Is there a way to root it?
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
How long it took?
[T-Mobile LG G3] jpirog:
Who would be the best to go through? The carrier or LG? I have a tmo, got it on launch and I have the hairline cracks on top and bottom and would really like to get this fixed.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
LG doing repairs
[T-Mobile LG G3] sykozylot:
It took about 2 weeks for the phone to arrive. Shipped from Texas.
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
Just discovered I have both the ir and Mic cracks...Lol they weren't there before. White g3, if that makes any difference.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wryun:
White LG G3 (VS985) with the same cracks on top and bottom. I just chatted with LG and Verizon. LG wants me to ship my phone for warranty repair. Verizon said they have seen these complaints before and wanted to contact LG to find out what to do. Verizon will follow up with me when they hear back from LG, but I think I will have to give in and ship the phone to LG for repair.:(
[T-Mobile LG G3] VivaLaCam92:
well after a half year owning this phone and checking on a pretty regular basis when i remover it from the case to clean it off and look for these cracks.. i look at it this morning and boom cracks at both the top and bottom on my white g3. not really wanting to send mine in to lg and wait forever so i'll probably go auto-body on it tonight and fill myself then respray or just throw a wrap on the entire phone again.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Auto body?
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
Two minutes on the phone with tmo gets me a ground shipping of the new phone for free. Good job, tmo!
[T-Mobile LG G3] cheesyFbaby:
So if Ive had my phone since launch its too late for an exchange?
[T-Mobile LG G3] sykozylot:
It's not too late. I had mine pre-ordered and just got it replaced.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
What you told them?
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
That I have cracks?
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
I just got approved for next day air replacement free, took one minute on the phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
What did you tell them? That cracks are growing with every second? Lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Cracks at the top and bottom
[T-Mobile LG G3] bobbyricha:
I just called also for a replacement. The rep I spoke with also has a G3. She looked at hers and had the same crack in the same location!
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
I don't give a crap about the cracks, I just hope T mobile doesn't give me any crap when it's time to jump the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
They will refuse your jump trade
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
No they won't. I just spoke to them. Known issue, they are replacing phones and if you don't feel like going through the setup process etc, they will not reject phones for a known issue on JUMP. Just spoke to them, had it noted on my account and they emailed me the convo.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
So you called to get a replacement or you keeping your cracked up phone?
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
I called to see if it would be a problem jumping with the issue. They offered a new phone immediately, I told them no, I won't have the phone for much longer (G4 release etc), so I'm not unrooting, and wiping everything over a couple tiny cracks on a phone that I'm not even keeping. They insisted they will not deny the jump for a known issue and noted my account and sent me a confirmation email to print out.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
G4 coming out this soon? I think im going for samsung note 5 or a s6 myself, G4 will crack up just lile this G3 we have im ready to go back to amoled anyway
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
According to this horrible "article" (http://www.businessinsider.com/lg-g4-specs-photos-release-date-2015-4), G4 isn't quite a mind-blowing upgrade from G3. I love how the last paragraph says that, in order to compete with s6, et. al, it should have a better battery. That person, obviously, never used N5... lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
Honestly, we're going to know almost nothing about the G4 until April 28th. I'm taking every "leak" with a real tiny grain of salt. I don't use Samsung products, so if the G4 isn't to my liking, I'll go back to HTC or Sony.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Sony and htc sucks
[T-Mobile LG G3] deathknellx:
I'll go big with Nexus 6 or G4. I honestly liked the G2 better than the 3..oh well.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Did the g2 crack around the casing like this crap g3?
[T-Mobile LG G3] deathknellx:
No. That phone was probably my second favorite phone behind the htc HD2.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sushi829:
I sent my rooted G3 to LG for repair and I got it back fixed but was stock with 10r on it
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
They probably just sent you a new one. Did you check serial number?
[T-Mobile LG G3] cheesyFbaby:
Is it best to call T-Mobile or can u walk into a store to discuss thid
[T-Mobile LG G3] sushi829:
Yeah it had the exact same serial and imei. Looks like they replaced the whole exterior of the phone

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 PM ----------

I did live chat support with LG on Monday, got it shipped out Monday afternoon and got my fixed phone back on Thursday! I am from Texas so shipping only took one day for them to receive my phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
I called 611 earlier today, and they are gonna overnight me my new refurb phone. They did ask a bunch of times if there was any other physical damage to the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Wow
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
This is the exact reason why I'm not sending it back for tiny cracks, or having T-Mobile replace it. I'll keep my rooted phone for a couple months and jump to the next phone when it releases.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
LGs casing quality sucks the g4 will crack up too
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
Probably, because the G2 cracked up. Oh wait it didn't. You shouldn't state an uninformed opinion as fact.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
So you skipping receiving a new uncracked phone for a cracking current phone? Very smart, by the time the g4 comes out your phone will fall apart.

---------- Post added at 09:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 AM ----------

G3 cracking is a KNOWN fact not a opinion, Samsung makes way more secure casings, fact.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
This phone is a JUMP phone. I don't own it, I don't care about 2 cosmetic cracks that have no effect on anything. So, because the G3 has a flaw in the bezel then the G4 must also be flawed? I think that's what you are saying. Solid logic.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Best Logic ever buddy
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
Fact, right? I think you need to Google what the word fact means. The Bezel on the Note 3 cracks, therefore, the bezels on every Samsung phone ever made will crack. Fact. (In your bizarro world).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2706241
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
S3 S4 S5 bezel or casing never cracked i owned them all and a note 2 and 3
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
Read the thread. It's happened to people on S3, S4, Note 2, Note 3. Its a flaw, and it's a fact in your own words. Just because yours never cracked, doesn't mean that Samsung bezels never crack. Their are plenty of G3 owners who have no cracks in the bezels. Anyway, I'm done with this conversation, you are being intentionally obtuse and my attention span for this type of nonsense is much shorter than I've exhibited in this thread with you. You now win by default, I now concede all LG phones present and future have inferior bezels and will crack. Samsung makes great bezels and they do not crack, as stated as fact by you.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sushi829:
I didn't send them my proof of purchase but they said they can see if the phone is still under warranty by just looking at the serial number
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
You havent owned the phones you posting articles on i dont have to read a article on phones I have owned MYSELF they never cracked up like this crap LG G3 theG4 will be on different
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
Just because "your" phones didn't crack, doesn't mean everyone else's didn't either. Just because your "g3" cracked, doesn't mean "everyone" will suffer from this. See the difference?

Got my replacement from T-mo in two days. Good job, t-mo!
[T-Mobile LG G3] VivaLaCam92:
just now seeing this... but by auto body i mean putting my auto repair skills to work on my phone and filling in the cracks.

which came out rather nice btw after stripping the entire phone apart and doing a ton of fine sanding.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
LG couldve replaced it
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
Has anyone who has had it replaced by T-Mobile, gotten a call back about any other damage on the phone? They did ask me several times if there was other damage on my phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
No call back yet, but they did ask over the phone before shipping out the replacement.
[T-Mobile LG G3] VivaLaCam92:
i know but i don't have the time to wait for either a refurb, new unit, or for lg to take their time with it.

i'm always on my feet and on the move and need to have a working phone because of the military.

so i figured it would be much better for me to just do it myself with the one night off i had.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LexLuger82:
Tmobile overnighted me one
[T-Mobile LG G3] jpirog:
Do you have full insurance on your phone though?
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
I do,but definitely not paying the deductible for the replacement phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] VivaLaCam92:
no insurance & no jump.

i trade or outright destroy my phones too much and it saves me a hell of alot more money to not have it and just pay outright.

now that i think of it this is the longest i've owned a phone in one piece without giving it away *woot woot*

Crack near the microphone port

I have a crack near my microphone port in my LG G3... My LG G3 model number is LG-D855... Can anyone help me in this issue please.? I want an immediate reply:(
[T-Mobile LG G3] qbanlinxx:
Call LG for your immediate response
[T-Mobile LG G3] tt c6:
As a buyer trying to decide between a LG G3 or LG G4 or Samsung S5, what is LG doing to fix this problem for owners?

Are they just replacing the defective parts with identical defective parts that are eventually going to crack again, or are they fixing these phones with re-engineered and improved parts that will not fail again.?

What is LG's current process and timeline and customer costs associated with this repair?

Thank you.

PS

I refuse to use a case with the G3 because it is already TOO WIDE from left to right.

70mm or less should be the max width of these phones.
[T-Mobile LG G3] RussianBear:
I don't think we have any lg decision-makers on this board... T-Mobile replaced my cracked up phone.

[Firefox OS Q&A] NoSyt15:
We could try... How?
[Firefox OS Q&A] evronetwork:
If ur a programmer and deal with a bunch of programming languages but if you ask how you probably have no idea ;)

P.S. No I'm not a very good programmer, I did my fair share when on Uni but after that ...nothing so :p
[Firefox OS Q&A] NoSyt15:
Yeah, I'm not. I used to have a bit of experience, but that was a good ten years ago and lots has changed. I'm willing to relearn, but would need a starting point.
[Firefox OS Q&A] evronetwork:
Try with C++ or Java, if you learn one you'll know 90% of the other ;) -- that's what our java professor told us(8+ years ago) over and over and it's true :D

You'll need:

- Free time(lots of it)

- Patience(you might write something that's perfectly good but for some weird reason it gets you errors and all you see is that you missed a ";" somewhere :P)

- Reading(either from a book, or web) about syntax, about how to think like a programmer

What you can do with that?

Heck if ur good enough you can go as deep as a kernel programmer and why not make a 3.18.13 kernel for our 1+1 :P (haahha, kidding to do that you much be really crazy, you'll need to be a guru programmer also kernels are using C afaik not c++ and they are different, also going to 3.18.13 requires drivers(not open source, companies keep them for themselves) although you can do some mods and although not be a complete 3.18.13 to be close to that)

[Firefox OS Q&A] lovemuffin:
Where I am starting ...

Because I am a new user, I have to create 10 posts before I can share a link, but what I did was search "firefoxos oneplus one" and I clicked on the link with the title, "Installing FireFox OS on a mobile device, " for me it was the third link.

After reading through a bit It would seem the first step would be to get the OS running on an emulator that works and then port that image to an Oneplus One emulator. ;)
