[AT&T LG G4] circetwo:
Hi all. I need help, or opinions, or both. I'm here because my husband used to tell me these forums were helpful. (Pleasebehelpful,pleasebehelpful) ;)

I have an At&t Lg G4, the H810 model. It randomly shut itself down and refuses to start up again. It will load up to the LG logo, then shuts off and tries again. It's been doing that for a few days, as I keep hoping it will randomly make it all the way through and actually start up. I've read some of the many threads about the bootloop issues, but they all seem to be people who've been experimenting with mods.

I haven't rooted, or anything. It's still running on whatever it had when I walked out of the store with it. I've talked with At&T, and LG, and have the option to either fix it or get a refurb to replace it. I'm anxious about the refurb, as it seems that this is not an uncommon issue with the G4s. Is there a way to tell when the refurb was made, or what they've done to make it "like new?"

I'm feeling like it's a bit of a crapshoot. Last time I went through warranty replacement was with a Samsung Galaxy, and that was a hideous ordeal. Is LG better? Anybody have any experience, or sage wisdom to impart? Nifty tricks to get the thing to start back up?

TIA!
[AT&T LG G4] redeyss:
Google search "Lg g4 return to stock" and flash the h81010o firmware in the instructions. This provided you can enter download mode.
[AT&T LG G4] ccbutterfly:
That's exactly what happened to mine. It randomly shut down and now it is stuck in a bootloop. Usually it won't pass the LG splash screen, but a few times I've seen the AT&T logo briefly. Twice it showed the "Configuring apps" screen as if it had been updated. I didn't allow an OTA update but that's what it looked like.

After 20 minutes on (another) phone with tech support they decided to send a warranty replacement.

I wish I knew what was wrong but it is essentially bricked. Can't hard reboot, get to download/recovery mode or even power off.

The phone is not rooted or otherwise modded.

I just wanted you to know you're not alone. All of this just happened today.
[AT&T LG G4] circetwo:
Thanks, but not dice. There's nothing there. The only thing I could get to was the *push start and volume down buttons* factory reset mode, which then didn't do anything. Boo.
[AT&T LG G4] circetwo:
ccbutterfly--how long have you had your phone? It's a frustrating thing to have it just *pfft* like that, isn't it? I bought mine the weekend they came out in June, and having read up for a while, it looks like there's a defect in some of the phones that were made before May. Just my luck. :( I went for the refurb. Hope it doesn't have the same problem in a few months.
[AT&T LG G4] ccbutterfly:
circetwo - I got it in June also. I bought it for my son's birthday on 6/29. It really was a surprise and a huge disappointment as the phone is otherwise everything we hoped it would be. I wish I had ordered one for myself instead of getting the GS6. I've had to warranty replace it after only a few months also.

Best wishes for your refurb. I hope we both have better luck this time around.

You know what really gets me is AT&T's shipping policy. My oldest son upgraded to the Note 5 this week. They sent it overnight at no extra charge. He already had a working phone, but they got the new one to him the next day. My other son had the LGG4 and when it randomly decided to be stupid they offered him expedited shipping at *our* expense. We opted for standard free shipping and he's without a phone til it gets here. That seems backwards to me.

Incidentally, I slipped his SIM card into my oldest son's *old* phone so he has something to use in the meantime. But really, doesn't it seem like the warranty replacement should be the one that gets expedited?

Okay, stepping off my soapbox now.

Hey, thanks for the info that the "May" date seems to be the key. That gives me more hope for the replacement phone.
[Samsung Gear S2] dialanothernumb:
I have my S2 paired with a Nexus 5X. Very happy with the device (and the N5X) but I am curious as to whether there is any functionality I lose by not pairing with an S6 or other Samsung phone. I have searched on the web and asked the Samsung support line this question and neither have been helpful. Does anyone here have insight?
[Samsung Gear S2] supersoulfly:
Won't get Samsung Pay in the future.

I think Galaxy owners have the option to purchase paid apps on the gear app store right now, non Galaxy user only can get the free ones.

I also believe Galaxy owners have access to an email and messenger app on their Gear.

[Samsung Gear S2] PrimalDirective:
Did you set up a card in the store yet? Go to the drop down right when you enter the store and select "credit card." See if that clears up the issue for you.
[Samsung Gear S2] mishuno:
There is not an option for Credit Card in the drop down.

Only:

And in settings there is not option either.

As far as I know, you also cannot answer the phone using a non-Samsung phone from the S2. Only option is to decline or send a default message. Non-3G watch. Would be nice to accept and answer the phone call with the watch, as I'm trying to get my phone out.

[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukelee83:
Has anyone experience the second screen not working all of a sudden? Mine is just dark with the main screen both on and off. I tried toggling the second screen on and off from the setting, reboot, battery pull, and wiping cache and dalvik but so far none worked.

It's not a hardware issue, I think, because when I open the camera, the second screen comes on for the camera Settings. Also, when in twrp, the second screen is also on as a part of the whole display.

EDIT: I can actually see some light bleed from the second screen with the main screen off. It's just not displaying information it should for some reason.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhokur:
I just got mine, and something I did in the course of adding/changing/modding did the same - I lost my second screen when the phone was off, but when it was on I had my shortcuts. I wound up factory resetting and re-installing/re-configuring my apps... knock on wood, everything works just fine now. I think mine failed when I unfroze an app in Titanium that it marked for me.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukelee83:
About the only thing that I did before I lost the second screen is installing a game from the play store. I have uninstalled it, but still no luck. I most likely will factory reset and if that doesn't work, I'll flash stock rooted rom... And set my phone up yet again.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris.sterbank:
Same symptoms

I am on stock, albeit rooted. I froze a few apps, but I have also rebooted multiple times before the second screen disappeared, so I am not sure how anything I have done this far could be the cause.

Because I saw I am not alone, I started to do some digging. It looks like the app is located in /data/data/com.lge.signboard, which actually has symlinked directories. Not sure if its a clear indicator of the issue, but most of the directories are empty. Definitely odd.

I'll load up SSHd later and see if I can investigate more.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukelee83:
Did the factory reset and now the second screen works. I'm sincerely hoping that this is not a regular occurrence. I haven't liked a phone so much since galaxy s2.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3741:
I also had my second screen go funky. Haven't factory reset but I'm going to. It seemed to happen as I was also defrosting and refreezing some LG things, mainly services and such and not apps that you interact with per se. At right about the same time I noticed something else strange. When plugging the phone in, it takes several seconds for it to realize it whereas before it used to be instant. Also, the camera is very slow to load and change from the front to the back ones.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3741:
So I got a little bored

And fired up adb logcat to see if I could find anything. I don't yet know if it's related or not, but there is a message

I/[SystemUI]MiniStatusBar( 5541): signBoardWindowShow() requested but unavailable. Hide MiniActivity.

that shows in the log.

I to tried clearing cache and dalvik or art or whatever to try to get the second screen back no avail.

I'm having the same issue. Any update on this?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo4g63t:
I too am interested in this, I had this issue occur too when I froze some applications (system apps) that I didn't think were necessary. Unfortunately once you freeze the component it blocks the screen and unfreezing everything back does not bring the screen back you have to factory reset it. Any ideas of what the service is that affects the second screen?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joker R. Wild:
Second Screen symlink busybox

After reading all your comments on what you could have done to cause the second screen from working, it looks like the symlink is broken especially if you have updated your busy box. I too started to have the second screen go bad on me and I couldn't figure it out until I read this thread especially the log post. I am going to reset and ensure that smart install is set right in busy box.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoang51:
Recently, the AT&T LG V10 (H900) just got root here: http://xdaforums.com/att-lg-v10/general/root-lg-h900-real-tot-make-tungkick-t3336317

I then debloated the V10 on firmware H90010f with Debloater v3.90 here: http://xdaforums.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294

Before, I decided to have the second screen off for a while, so I disabled it in the system's menu. I then advanced towards debloating. Decided to turn on the second screen again. Notice that there were issues with it. So now I'm currently experiencing this issue: the second screen does not show date, time, weather, notifications, quick icons. Only shows quick toggles if I swiped from right to left, such as sound profile, WiFi, flashlight, and camera. I undo all of the debloating, rebooted the phone many times, still the same problem. Sigh. I'm trying to avoid doing factory reset because I'm not up to reloading everything again, especially the SMS/MMS.

So, anybody found out a better solution other than doing a reset?

Update 1: It seems like re-rooting with updating the ROM with the "upgrade" option for the AT&T LG V10 to not do a full clean install does not solve the problem. I didn't lose all my personal data, but I did not gain anything that it restored system apps to previous default settings. Sigh, it's just one step closer to just do a factory data reset.

Update 2: There appears that other things were broken from disabling/removing apps (during phone calls, cannot multitask, such as switch apps or use the notification area; SuperSU couldn't generate a log correctly), so I went ahead and did a factory reset since there was no alternative restoring method. The second screen works again and so does the said apps. Looks like I'll have to be careful which apps I'll be disabling/removing with Debloater.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radiatorn8:
Uninstalling an app restored my second screen.

I had this issue as well. Camera controls were in the second screen space, the swipe to end call would appear, but none of my other settings stayed long after restarting my phone, maybe 10 min. I uninstalled some of my most recent apps, the suspect one being "Zooper Widget Pro" and the issue stopped. No factory data reset etc. This app was a launcher-type app (I'm a geek but nowhere near the tech terms used elsewhere on this site) and I thought it might be the issue due to its ability to control the home screen. I doubt it was intended to work with this arrangement. So I would look at any launchers or apps which can control the home screen before doing a reset as this exact issue was easily solved for me.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aim1999x:
I just got the phone and set it up. the only thing I disabled was ATT bloatware nothing else. 2nd screen is only on when main one is on. Using nova launcher. I tried uninstalling and that didn't help. Is there any more info on this, can I get it working without factory reset ? I get no indication of notification right now other than sound.

I did factory reset and that didn't help either.

here is a recovery thread

http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/development/recovery-philz-touch-6-59-0-port-p8000-t3224478

to get access to recovery on a rooted device you can also use several apps from playstore

like

quick reboot

or

simple reboot

.

the normal way to get into bootloader and recovery is:

access to bootloader with vol+ and power (at once)

in bootloader (has tiny letters) you can switch between the 3 options with vol+

enter something with vol-

to go out of the bootloader long press power.

or with the option "normal" the device will reboot.

(also if you have an custom recovery installed , go there and choose the reboot option)

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] je.nickp:
Hi everyone,

Problem: I tried every method I know to install B521 on my H60-L04; but every time I encountered a problem: the installer failed at "post_processing cust" (at 96%). After rebooting, the OS seemed to be half installed: ugly arrangement of icons, no keyboard, no hide navigation bar, ... and factory reset did not work. In short, I had a bad feeling about it. :rolleyes:

Solution: Thanks to this post, there is a simple procedure to solve this problem. In cust partition of B521, there is only a folder for "eu" region and my phone requires a "ru" folder, so I just renamed "eu" to "ru" :D.

The procedure is:

Install B521.

Root the phone (I did by Multi-Tool).

Install an explorer which can access and modify root (I used ES File Explorer).

Go to "/cust/hw".

Rename "eu" folder to "ru".

Do factory reset.

Done! enjoy your life. ;)

After above procedure, my phone has this features:

Swype and Google keyboards

Supports 4G and has a button for it in notifications

Hide navigation bar button

Motion control

Mirror and Smart Controller

Some games!

...

Note that may be your phone requires different country code than "ru", but even in indian rom B510, there is a "ru" folder in "/cust/hw".

Also I find a procedure for users who don't want to root their phones:

you can extract "cust.img" from "update.app" using HuaweiUpdateExtractor and unpack "cust.img" contents by ext4_unpacker. Then rename the "eu" folder to ru" and repack it by tools described here. Finally flash modified "cust.img" in fastboot mode. Note that because repacking tools need linux, I did not do this and don't know even it works or not. :)
