I have never seen a thread like this in any other forum. I don't know whether to laugh ... or cry.

I've owned cell phones since they came in what looked like a shoe-box and had a hand-set on a coiled cord like the one on the wall in my house and always upgraded to the next-best-thing throughout my life and I swear - on the grave of my Father - I've only broken one screen.

I'm not mocking any of you. I really hope you all find a way to get them all fixed and worked out. Good luck.
[LG V10 General] robl45:
I've owned them since they were installed in your car. Over 20 years, first broken screen for me. If you tout the phone as mil spec, it should not be cracking the screen this easily.
[LG V10 General] :
Yeah getting my replacement and putting an otterbox on the darn thing, I've had samsung/htc/lg/apple that lasted longer sadly. Definitely a disapointment
[LG V10 General] parusia:
I dropped mine the third day after I brought the phone from my head height (5'8”), and no problems not even a scratch. I really think that some phones are just defective.
[LG V10 General] porscheoscar:
same here.

Touch screen phones I've owned with glass screen:

Blackberry Bold - dropped, no broken glass

iPhone 1 - dropped many times miraculously did not break while in use.

iPhone 3G - dropped many times did not break

Motorola Droid X - dropped many times did not break

Motorola Razr Maxx - dropped many times did not break

Note 3 - dropped more times than all previous phones combined due to large size - did not break

LG V1 - first drop, screen cracked.
[LG V10 General] :
Yeah,now I gotta sell this damn thing for probably half of what its worth lol
[LG V10 General] Double0EK:
I have an Otterbox on my Tmo V10. You need to order from Otterbox. I dont think Tmo will carry it.
[LG V10 General] :
****, thanks brotha, ordering as we speak
[LG V10 General] BobbyHenceMcGee:
I'd only believe this if the video was of the incident taking place.

If the device was this sensitive, the screen would have cracked during transit from the factory to the shop or from the shop through the mail (if delivered).

Unless "carpet" means "rusty metal spikes" in yankyland..
[LG V10 General] :
My business Rep said this is a problem, and over 1000 have been returned/warranty exchange ,local stores said 30+ have done the same. I'm probably gonna use my cracked v10 as a remote till it sells
[LG V10 General] porscheoscar:
oh boy I better get my insurance exchange in quickly before there's a screen shortage.

This is exactly how class action legal cases start. Disgruntled consumers start buying into the manufacturer hype of mil-spec ruggedness and get burned.

It makes perfect sense that there are many cracked screen already, it's a new phone so there aren't a ton of case options available yet. People go without a case and since the

phone is heavy they drop it more frequently. CRACK goes the screen and everyone is pissed.

---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------

I dropped my phone onto a hard surface (coffee table) but it traveled less than 18" when it impacted. Actually more like 12".

The glass sits flush with rails, there's zero protection for a face first drop.

If it falls on the sides, top/bottom, or on the back not a big deal.

But face down you're screwed. So basically it's just like every other phone out there in that you still need a hard case, which makes it even heavier than it already is.

I feel LG need to clarify their claims of a mil spec rating entirely. In the case of face down drop the phone is not protected in any way and any mil-spec claims need to be dialed back.

Right now they're engaging in a form of misleading advertising. And this should include indicating very overtly that if the screen cracks from a face down drop the entire warranty is void.
[LG V10 General] :
Well there is otterboxes but the failed milspec is bad.
[LG V10 General] felloffthetruck:
Just today I've noticed this on my V10. I have the Spigen Tempered Glass and hope it's just the Spigen.

It was not there a couple of days ago. Looks like the protector but I'm not sure. :confused:

I've had no drops, bumps or anything.
[LG V10 General] joelbnyc:
This thread is depressing. My next upgrade simply needs to possess a user-swap-able battery, I refuse to buy something with the specs of a Note 5 or 6 that is nearly as powerful as a laptop, but designed to fail after 400 charges. Does the G4 have these problems too?
[LG V10 General] :
Rumor around town is nnote 6 removable but I doubt
[LG V10 General] porscheoscar:
I wouldn't skip the V10 because the screen cracks. They all crack.. Just use a case and ignore LG's misleading marketing claims. And get insurance no matter what. I just ordered the Ghostek case and a Spigen.

I was on the fence about the buying the Note 4 or the V10. The aggressive promotions for the V10 tipped the scale in favor of the LG. Plus the Note 4 is still expensive for a year old phone so better to have the new thing with all the added features in my opinion. I wouldn't go for the G4 over the Note 4 however. I'm done with Samsung now that they got rid of SD card and removable battery, I didn't care for the finger print magnet back either. What would be great is if Nexus came with SD card and removable battery in phablet size device.
[LG V10 General] joelbnyc:
Verizon subsidized upgrade comes in August, I might buy a Nexus 5x for $329 to tide me over, and then buy a G5 or V10 rev 2 in 2016. If LG ditches removable batteries too, then it's a different ball game, but that is the main selling point now. I mod all my laptops even when they are not "user moddable," why should I not be able even to replace a burnt out battery on a handheld device with 3 or 4 GB Ram and a freaking hexa or octacore cpu, and a fhd or qhd screen... seriously, the specs on these devices nowadays, it's absolutely absurd that they should "die" after 1 year of heavy use due to a battery purposely engineered not be replaceable. End rant.
[LG V10 General] Semantics:
I've dropped my phone several times from lap height, and my 5 year old has tossed it several feet a few time all on various surfaces. I have no dings dents or cracks. Just putting this here as people seem to think the phone is exceptionally fragile and I use no case whatsoever. Ironically, the only damage to my phone is to the camera housing ring from gently setting the phone down on wood and linoleum surfaces lol.
[LG V10 General] Gods Son:
Can't judge the phone by only a few people who have had bad experiences with it.

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

Damn a lot of you guys got some serious butter fingers. I've never heard of so many people dropping their phones in my life unless you're an iPhone user but that's a different phone that's inferior. Sorry but I'm laughing at these post.
[LG V10 General] shwnr11:
Maybe you just need one of theses.
[LG V10 General] shwnr11:
Only difference with the I phone users is they buy the hideous otterbox cases that increase the phones size 3 times thicker.
[LG V10 General] Gods Son:
I have an otterbox case on my note 4, my wife wants one for her V10. Personally I trust otterbox over any other brand of cases. I never could understand the whole super small phone thing.
[LG V10 General] Wrightperspective:
Since I have received my replacement phone, it has dropped a couple times from higher distances than the original 2 ft the other one fell, and it has landed on hardwood...no issues. I seriously think my first phone had a defect because the new one performs as expected when dropped.
[LG V10 General] shwnr11:
Sorry, but that's laughable.
[LG V10 General] felloffthetruck:
Update, the crack I was seeing turned out to be the Spigen Glass.Tr protector and not my phone, Thank God. :)
[LG V10 General] SaintlySins:
I'm also wondering how this many people drop phones?!?

Yet ... maybe I'm the one that's out of sync with the reality of how many people drop phones because ... the phone "safety case" business is verrrry competitive with multiple companies having a case for a phone within the first few days it's out.

I don't use any cases. Never have. In over 20 years I've only broken one screen. (I probably just cursed myself ;- )
[LG V10 General] :
I never once dropped my phone, but some how mine got a small chip in the side. Saw it, and said, welp time to get a glass screen protector!
[LG V10 General] evo_mexican:
My phone just flew out my sweater pocket while my kids were chasing me around the front yard phone landed face down on the concrete and good thing I had a cheapie case from the mall kiosk nothing happened... My daughter was afraid to pick it up thinking it was going to be shattered... Lol I love this phone!!!! ???
[LG V10 General] zoomzoomz601:
My phone just dropped about 2 feet on a bathroom mat on tile floor. It created a hairline crack. Thank God for my glass screen protector!
[LG V10 General] helichrysum:
Funny thing...having a conversation the other day with my daughter and she asks if I've ever cracked a screen. I tell her I never recall having done so. Dropped a lumia 928 and it dinged up the metal band but didn't crack anything. Less than 24 hours later, I walk into the laundry room pull my v10 out of my pocket and my hand bumps the doorway dislodging the phone onto the linoleum floor. Exact same crack pattern as OP but in bottom left hand corner. I'm planning on DIY replacing the screen/digitizer as it was my fault for dropping it but I do empathize with OP as LG advertises this sucker to be able to withstand a lot more than what happened in my case and certainly in his. I was absolutely shocked when I picked it up and all that when through my mind was the whole "beauty meets function" part on their webpage touting the "two layers of glass that help prevent damage from direct impact" and the "military certification for transit drop test". This was one of the many reasons I bought the LG - I have massively dry hands and even though I don't have a history of dropping phones, I always feel like they could easily fall.

In the end, I just got done chatting with them and they gave me an RA to inspect the unit to see if it was defective...or I guess to see if I just Nolan Ryan'd it right into the floor, lol. I'll post my results.

Happy to be part of the community. Really want to delve into custom ROMs.
[LG V10 General] Milimbar:
Keep us updated with what LG says.
[LG V10 General] MO3iusONE:
I'll just throw in my two cents about this phone. When LG says how this phone is mil spec, I was expecting it to have the same type of ruggednes as the the Samsung s6 active (the LG is MIL-STD-810 and the S6 active MIL-STD-810G). I think if LG wasnt touting about the ruggedness of this phone then people would've treated it like a normal phone and picked up a case, screen protector, etc.

I wasn't using a case or a screen protector until I got on here and realized that some people were ending up with cracked screens.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GatorsUF:
So I just purchased the 6P and I have a few weeks to wait for it's arrival.

Was curious if there is a way to alter the build.prop so that I can use my 6P as a WiFi hotspot without keeping the phone rooted. Verizon doesn't allow me to use my phone as a "hotspot" with my Unlimited Data Plan, so I've always had to use an xposed module or something to deactivate the subscription check. My hope is that I can deactivate this check then unroot my phone.

I don't want to be fully rooted on a daily basis because I am hoping to use Android Pay.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustang02:
Hotspot works out of the box without any build.prop edits.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joderme:
Can confirm. Not sure why, however, I'm not complaining.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collinjm01:
Wait... So you guys have been using VZW tethering out of the box with no subscription pop-ups??

If this is true.. :good::good::good:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoff5093:
There was another thread were Verizon users on unlimited data confirmed. I'll have mine Thursday so I'll check as well.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 640k:
personally i've seen mixed reports. i'm beginning to wonder if there were a "later" batch of SIMs issued that forced some VZW bloatware to be installed. i'm not sure if these rumors were true or not, as this will be my first non-vzw device.

as for the OP - if you end up needing to edit the build.prop, you can unroot after making the changes.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cccoltsicehockey:
I have had mine since Friday and I can confirm that you can use the built in hotspot function with my unlimited data package with no pop up at all. It just works. I don't know why but I am not complaining like said above.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GatorsUF:
Great news, thanks guys!!

Now if we could just get November 18-20 here faster... :)

I'll have to avoid XDA all together as the draw of custom ROMs could cause me to abandon Android Pay, but tethering and no root is great! Only other thing I use root for on my MotoX is Greenify which should be nullified by Doze.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cares:
PSA: First thing you do with your phone, unlock your bootloader! Regardless of rooting or not, you want the flexibility to not have to wipe your phone if you choose to root.

I spent the better part of yesterday reinstalling everything because I chose to finally root. Android Pay works with root, you just have to disable Superuser to add payment methods.

Tethering also works with Verizon out of the box. I have unlimited data and not paying for hotspot.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 318sugarhill:
Got mine today. UDP on VZW. Tethering works right out of the box. It's GLORIOUS. Used to Android pay to pick up six pack at the liquor store tonight. This may be the first phone I DON'T root LOL. I've rooted EVERY phone I've had. Who knew it would take a Nexus NOT to root HAHAHAHA

Seriously Tethering is the first reason for rooting. There are many others....but Tethering was my main reason. With it working out of the box....I'm going to let the Devs. work their magic before I go near messing with it. I left my wallet at home, but saw the wireless pay at the register....cha ching!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 640k:
not only that but some adblocks work without root as well. i've become used to nine as my exchange email client, so replacing the exchange.apk isn't even necessary any longer.

i might start looking in to theming again, however, since M natively supports it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collinjm01:
Well my nexus 6 is non-vzw (it even says it on their website under myverizon) and it has never allowed me to tether.

I had to root and rom to get it to work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d1ez3:
Even with an unlocked bootloader we need to wipe to root. I guess this may change in the future.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnp357:
are you sure you put android pay in after you rooted? I haven't seen it worked for anyone who actually rooted the phone. some who put it in before they rooted got it to work??
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
Use the temporary unroot in SuperSu.

I installed and configured after my phone was rooted.

I can use Android Pay just fine.

All I do is temp unroot.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnp357:
thanks... strange that it works for some and not others... just like anything else I guess...

NOTE: members of af2 group states that this method is bugged and you will lose OTA.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dweller417:
Please verify if someone successful in rooting this method. thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktsarlz:
That is why, before rooting, it is said to backup first, besides, there is already a stock rom that is flashable via recovery.

Worked for me, most error they encounter is SPFT not reading their devices, and others (first batch buyers) said that their OTA was gone, but this, I am not fully aware of what do they mean.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kitipon:
It's work, thank you very very much.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktsarlz:
You're welcome. Rooting shouldn't be a problem though. Having a flashable stock rom is, might be my case only. In the AF2 FB group a recovery flashable is already done, but a SPFT one isn't, yet.

So who has tried this guide? I'm planning to purchase a Flash Plus 2 (Is it the same device?)
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k.s.deviate:
So I flahed the new MDB08M image and since it uses the "I" boot image I went ahead and flashed the modified boot.img and flashed TWRP and used it to root as I didn't have SuperSU zip on the device yet. After flashing the new system I didn't do any factory reset.

Now TWRP says that internal storage is 0mb and it can't mount /data. Every time I boot into it, it comes up with the screen asking me if I want to modify /system or leave it read only. I check the box to not show it again and swipe to modify.

I've tried using adb again to flash recovery but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

Edit: bootloader also sais I'm secure, and in security it sais I'm encrypted..
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixTank:
TWRP can't decrypt /data on the N5X yet. You can format from TWRP, but you'll lose the contents, of course.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k.s.deviate:
I thought by flashing the modified boot image that would decrypt? It did on MDB08I..
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
The modified boot just changes flag to encrytable instead of force encryption. It doesn't actually decrypt the drive contents. Once you wipe it then you can mount data in TWRP.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k.s.deviate:
so just factory reset in TWRP?

Edit: reflashed firmware, flashed modified boot and did a factory reset in stock recovery. reflashed TWRP and all is good. thank you
