My LG G3 D852 is stuck and won't let the apps do certain tasks. I keep getting the "screen overlay detected" and it advises me to settings "draw over other apps" I think it's called. But from there it's a needle in a haystack. I tried turning all the permissions to off and on, and then one at a time.. nothing. Can you please help? ?

Hello everyone, my first time typing here, so let`s jump to a problem right away.

I have LG G3-D858hk and I'm facing a network problem.

First of all, I can't get any 4G network mode, tried with network settings change, changed it to LTE/GSM/WCDMA trough dialer by dialing *#*#4636#*#*. Still nothing.

The other thing i noticed is that when i speak on phone, during that call and after coversation my network changes to 2G and stays like that for some time, then it comes back to 3G.

I'm so confused and would appreciate if someone could help me, if you are from my country I'll get you a beer..

Thanks

I don't know what the best Rom is, many would say AOSP or LineageOS - What ever, I am using LineageOS (and it's predecessor CyanogenMod) for years and now, for a few weeks on LG G3.

I got 56000 Points in Atutu Benchmark (instead of 49000 on stock Rom) it isn't just a feeling that the device is litte more speedy now, and it runs very smooth.

I installed it following this guides

https://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/guide-how-to-install-lineag-os-t3558777

and this

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/d855/install

It is commonly suggested to do a EFS Backup before flashing an Custom Rom (I did it from the TWRP Recovery).

If you are new to those things i think you should also read this:

Hello good people at XDA!

I am currently struggling wether to keep my trusty G3, or to buy a SGS7. Two reasons - for one the SDCard slot on my device is broken, which is manageable. Secondly I miss some manual features in the otherwise really good camera. Shutter-speed and aperture namely, for low-light photography. If that would work, I would stick with the G3, and save good money :).

Is there a good way to get manual camera features on my German D855 without going full-custom ROM?

Thanks, I checked it out. Its better but not what I wa looking for, because it wont let me take long-exposure photos in the dark.

So I downgraded and rooted the G3 and installed Fulmics ROM. With that I checked out several Camera-Apps, but had no luck regarding exposure-control. One app had the controls, but they had no effect.

It seems that this doesn't work anymore on Marshmellow - the working G4 cameras were supposedly on Lollypop. So I switched to a SGS7.

Hi, I'm from Greece and a friend of mine bought the LG G3 D855 and Update it via PC Suite to Firmware V30N.

Problem is that the device was shipped by default with Romanian Firmware and also Updated to Romanian Ver. of Marshmallow, so after 2 years of usage he ask me to Root it for him. As I've read, to do so I must downgrade first to Lollipop or Kitkat.

My questions are, if I flash via Flashtool the lollipop 21A firmware ver. of Greece, will it work, or should I flash the Romanian instead ?

Both KDZ files are for 16GB variant. Will the device break if I flash a firmware other than shipped ?

And will it be possible to re-flash the other firm if the first one fail ?

Hello everyone, I am having an issue with D850. Whenever I flash any custom ROM, the wifi becomes useless. What I mean is that it will connect to any network, 2.4g or 5g just fine, but will only last for 10 seconds exactly. After that the connection will drop for 3 seconds, and then the process will start all over. It took me 2 hours to go through inital setup.

Naturally, I started reading, and found the stock radios for my device and flashed them in twrp... Nothing.

Ok so then I wiped cache, re-flashed the rom, and got the same results. At this point I figured I screwed something up, so I tot back to MM stock and what do you know, the wifi works beautifully!

I then proceed to try out 3 different ROMs from other developers and I always got back to an intermittent wifi problem. I've been working at this for about a week, and I just don't understand why I can't have a newer Rom, and just keep the radios at a version where I get stable wifi

LG G3 only boots via TWRP 3.2.1

Hi All,

First post, please be gentle. I have been trying to breathe new life into my old LG G3, d855 16 Gb. It has a history of a hard brick which I had to deal with with shorting 2 connections near the CPU, and rooting.

Since then I have bad problems with boot loops.

I am currently using:

OS: Cypher OS 7.1.2. aoscp_d855-3.6.3-20170531-official

Kernel: ArtxUltra-Nougat-v1.0U-AnyKernel_2018-04-11_d855

Radio: RADIO_D855_21C_Step-han-ForNougatOreo

Recovery: TWRP 3.2.1

Flashed ROMs and Kernels by giving access to cache, system, data.

The phone always boot loops when not on charge (small LG logo looping).

It does not even boot loop if I turn it on whilst charging, just displays a battery with a progress circle in the middle.

The only way it boots every single time reliable, if I unplug charging cable, boot into recovery, before booting into TWRP 3.2.1 I attach charging cable, and reboot THROUGH TWRP. With this sequence it boots every time.

It feels like TWRP loads something that is essential for booting but that is not available with regular booting.

Many thanks for any advice.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcdw:
That almost sounds like a battery issue. I had similar issues once, same thing with booting working fine on charger. Have you tried a new battery?

Also, try running the ROM with its default kernel to rule out Artx. Maybe kernel doesn't play well with 16GB variant. That one has 2GB RAM? You could search through the Artx thread to see if anyone else has experienced the same. Still leaning toward a battery issue though.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zsadany:
Thank you. The battery is fairly new, a couple of months old, and oddly, the phone does not boot when plugged in, either. I always have to go through TWRP to be able to boot, and it reliably does every time.

Although it does shut off, the moment I unplug, despite a battery of 100%, it would boot loop happily for 10-15 minutes when trying to restart on battery power only.

Also, another thing that would be against a clear battery issue is that, when I boot, the

only

way it will boot up is :

1. I press volume down and power to enter recovery on battery power, and click "yes", to enter into recovery.

2. For the second question "are you sure you want to delete everything", I need to plug in and it boots into TWRP.

I have tried these steps plugged and unplugged and this is the only way it works. This is why I think that it has to do with some issue around system control / regulation.

Is there any way/app/trick to be able to change display resolution on lg g3?

tkank you for your help
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcdw:
Just to be clear, you referring to resolution (2550 vs 1080 f.i) or dpi? Either can be changed via terminal using the wm command. Have to have root and use 'su' to see the command.

There are apps also to do one or the other. For dpi I remember the old texdroider_ app. DPI can also be changed by editing /system/build.prop. Search for lcd in the file.

Are you on stock or custom ROM. The latter usually has settings you can change under Settings -> Display -> Display size.

If you're looking to change resolution for battery reasons I don't think that's ever been proven. If you're on stock and looking to change DPI from 640 to something smaller, 580 worked out well for me. Going smaller might mess up some LG widgets. For custom ROMs I always go for 480.

Excuse all the jabber but you didn't specify exactly what it is you're trying to do.
