[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Killua96:
For the #5 strange, never heard something like this.

For the #8 i saw that, it's the same as other problems, some users have them, other not, and the reviewers never said nothing. Maybe there was a problem with the the jack itself, in my opinion the real issue with this phone is that you have high chances to get a faulty one, moreover in us where it was released first. In my country I'm still waiting for users feedback
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] sstanton86:
I love my lg g5. I get bored of phones and switch up so regularly but still absolutely loving it. I mainly got it for the camera, and I'm more impressed than I was with my beloved lg g4. In manual mode I still believe it's better than the s7 (I tested then both over the course of a week).

That data drop is interesting though. Happens to me too, but can't figure out if it might be something to do with whether you turn wi-fi on or off. Seems linked, as happens to me at work.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] InflatedTitan:
I have the ATT one too. Got it the day before launch... Screen i think comes second to the S7 TBh, but is still pretty damn good... Camera I find is sick, better than the competition in my opinion. I haven't had any issues with data or signal loss whatsoever, however I can confirm when using GPS the signal will either drop, or it won't lock on at all until I just about hold it to the top of my front windshield!!! The sound I find is fine, but im no audio engineer either. I use jaybird X2 BT ear buds and I think they sound fantastic with no Bluetooth signal loss ever... Alarm issue is a new one to me.. No problems here and I constantly have to change the time due to our ridiculous work schedule.

One can definitely understand why you are bringing yours back. Hope you enjoy your next device.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] RojasTKD:
Humm, I haven't had any such issues....

Hope you enjoy your new device. :)
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] kresk:
As a comparison, my data, gps, Bluetooth and such all work fine. When using an auxiliary cable in my car I had that hissing sound, but using the alternate 3.5mm port on the back of my radio fixed the issue.

The only part of the phone that could use some fine tuning is the strength of the paint or whatever it's calledy. The paint got a little rough or irritated in a couple spots from removing a tpu case less than ten times. I also noticed a little chip in the coating near the charging port. I'm very careful with my phones. My G2 has less blemishes at this point and I've had that thing forever. I'll be curious to see how it will hold up over the next year, at the least.

Who knows, my paint problem could be a minority issue just as others with GPS and data issues. In my case, instead of getting a new device that could possibly have more than superficial defects. I'll keep the one with the funky paint.

As we all know, there's lots to love about this phone. I'm sure as hell keeping mine.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Pphish20:
All the problems I hear about seem to be non existant on the unbranded variants or variants for carriers outside the US...

Also AT&T H820 seems to have the most issues.

Had this phone for a week now with no issues.I've only read one bad report of a variant outside the US...

Not saying LG is not at fault but this what happens when carriers mess with the firmware...doesn't explain quality issues but most of it seems to be with AT&T
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ~~Tito~~:
My main issue is the ambient light sensor causing the image to flicker in low light when using the FFC, and the obvious auto brightness issue. This needs to get fixed ASAP by LG.

Everything else is working just fine for me. Battery life is meh, but as others have mentioned the stand by time is amazing feels similar to the performance of an iPhone in terms of battery life. Bluetooth works fine as well.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Jonathan-H:
I do not have any of these issues. So have to say I disagree with this post completely.

1 Carrier issues, ie network is your mobile provider. Mine drops never. 4G 2 to 3 bars most of the time.

2. GPS on mine is perfect, many journeys well over half an hour, no issues at all.

3. The camera beats out any other phone I've used low light and craps over the Galaxy S's Barring the 7. (You need to use manual or a steady hand but still stands)

4. BT issues is the devices you are connecting to.

5. Alarm clock always goes off for me.. maybe you're turning it off in your sleep, or some settings you've altered or app you've downloaded

6. S6 and 7 screens are better, no doubt, except in sunlight where the S6 is not really useable but G5 is absolutely perfect in sun. As bright as if you're indoors.

7. Always on display drains too much battery so I turn it off... I like my 6.5 hours screen on time at 75% brightness.

8. Sound quality trounces my old S6 and Xperia Z5, can't say much else about this. It's louder and clearer and bassier.

Have to say i'm happy with this phone and thanks to the wide angle lens.. I might just end up keeping it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] lywyn:
UK H850 Stock Rom had for 4 weeks now.

1. Dropping Network. -- This has been better than my old Z2. In fact some "dead spots" that my friends phone suffer from I find my phone still has 2 bars

2. Dropping GPS. -- Used the LG fitness tracker the other day and it was really accurate to the paths I walked when check on google maps. CHecking some photos on google and they are accurate to 2 metres.

3. Camera. -- Low light has not been an issue for me, but if it were I'd switch to the manual mode. Done some amazing sunsets thanks to the manual mode

4. Bluetooth. -- Only used with headphones but never had an issue. Streamed for couple of hours to a portable speaker at a bbq this weekend and was faultless.

5. Alarm Clock reliability.-- Not used that feature. Have used the timer function for cooking and that works a treat, very loud as well

6. Screen Quality.-- I thought my Xperia Z2 screen was good, the G5 is blinding when you set brightness up. It's amazing for outdoor use in sun light. I have seen the S6 screen, colours look freakish and don't match when on a TV or monitor

7. Always on display. -- I have stopped turning my phone on thanks to this and the battery usage is insane, it barely uses it. Also I have noticed it changes brightness based on on light sensor. Plus if I want it off I cover the proximity sensor or flip it.

8. using a pair of wired headphones the audio quality just isnt there. -- Yet this has a 24bit DAC, better than the S7 (dependent on processor) and most other flagships. The basic headphones with it are crap but they are cheap. But my sony nc ones sound amazing with it.

I read a lot of bad things about quality whee this launched but then I reminded myself, people only tend to have time to complain about things and no praise. I know I'm guilty of that. In fact I'll layout my one complaint about the G5, the UI. It's not as "clever" or usable as what I'm used to with the Xperia. But I can change that with 3rd party software and root.

Maybe you have a bad one, or may as someone else pointed out the issue is the carriers forcing changes on base model. All those variants could be affecting the quality control.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] kms108:
I have the H860N dual sim version, not having any problems as mentioned above apart from the alarm part.

I set my alarm on at 3pm and 4pm with snooze in case I over slept, but some how the alarm goes off at around 9:20pm and also the set alarm times, not sure if it's related to other features.

I'm still testing it now.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] houseofbugs:
I just wanted to chime in here.

I have the LG G5 on Verizon and my signal is horrid. I lose LTE coverage all the time. This is NOT the network as I also carry a LG G4 with me that is also on Verizon and it always has a LTE connection and a strong signal at the time that the G5 drops. I am getting Verizon to replace the device, hopefully this resolves the issue.

They had me use the Repair tool on my PC along with multiple factory resets. They event went as far as to blame the Google Application updates that were from the Play store, aka looking for a cop out.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] lilhaiti:
The only issue that I've had with my G5 has been with the AT&T LTE signal. Sometimes I find the phone struggling to stay on LTE for a minute or two. This is not a big problem for me but it is sometimes annoying when I try to watch a video or something. I live in the Washington DC area and LTE service is pretty strong over most of the area, so it's not a carrier issue. Again it's not a big deal and most of the time I don't notice it.

Regarding the camera, it's one of the best smartphone cameras I've seen yet, I've taken some pretty amazing shots and all of them have been in full auto mode.

If your device is having that many issues, you should probably return it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] asialove2013:
You are right

I wonder why AT&T and other U.S. carriers like to put their own software on top of LG factory image. Unbranded LG G5 works great!

Maybe you are right, Carriers 's bloatware may cause those issues.

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 PM ----------

Go hidden menu, Run a ALL-AUTO-TEST, you can test the LTE NETWORK issues, If in test mode, the LTE never drops. It is not the hardware issue. According to my experience, Most of issues are caused by Carrier firmware.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] HooliganAMA:
I have this same issue with the alarm clock. sometimes it works my early morning alarm rarely goes off.

I have tried adding the alarm clock app to the battery optimization exception list and that hasn't helped.

Third party apps on the optimization list or off still unreliable.

anyone find a solution for this? i may try a factory reset this weekend.

other apps like KIK seem to have the same problem like they just stop functioning when the screen is off. I get a flood of messages when i unlock the screen.

could it have something to do with device encryption? i don't think my phone always had these problems and that;s the only big change i can think of that i made.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
I haven't had a single one of the listed issues on my Verizon phone other than the pretty bad low light camera, which does bum me out because it was weirdly a lot better on my G4? Daylight photos are absolutely beautiful.

I also use my alarm every night with no issues.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] HooliganAMA:
The update my phone downloaded last Friday seems to have fixed my issues with the alarm clock.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] galr:
H850 (international version).

No issues really.. no drops, everything works great. Camera is way better than anything else out there (including the S7 which is just better in one scenario - low light with moving objects). I'm not an audiophile so I cant comment on that honestly.

Maybe it's the US version?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] kchannel9:
I get this issue on my S5 running CM13....When I unlock the screen, here comes all the notifications
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Goran B.:
G5 issues

Unfortunately I have to agree with most of the points stated here. My GPS does not work at all. My WiFi cuts out and it's a regular occurrence every night at least couple of times and same problem has a Bluetooth besides being incredibly quiet even at its loudest setting! Also paint raising up on the edge where bottom module connects to the main body of the phone! Also my mic was really bad cutting I and out so much so that ppl couldn't understand me (I replace the whole bottom module) now (for now) it's still OK.

Got to say this phone is a mess and not a flagship model! I had budget phones working better and being more reliable than this "top of the line" model! :mad:

I sideloaded HTC Gallery and Google Camera (because neither appear in the Play Store on my device). Gallery works great (and also installs Photo Editor) and Google Camera, unlike HTC Camera, still has photosphere, which works with Google Cardboard, as opposed to HTC Camera's only 360 degree "flat" panorama.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] tekkneke:
Kind of annoyed because they said we could download Gallery from the Play Store. Would be especially annoyed if I was a mainstream user and couldn't sideload it.

And what were they thinking with TouchPal? I just want the normal Sense keyboard back :( I will say though, I downloaded the light Android L theme and it is loads better than what they give you stock.

If you want Sense 8 themed apps download ICE for M8, use ZArhiver or something to open it, and extract all the apps you need. (They cant be installed on 5.1.1 on my M9, parse error, so i cant tell if they work or not)

Thanks for the idea. But there are some notes ... I used the app Sony Album on HTC 10, and I liked it, but as it turned out after a week of use, the application Sony Album does not properly remove the photos. More specifically it indicates that removes, and then it turns out that a photo or video in the gallery Sony Album over there. As a result, again using the editor from Google...

HTC Gallery application is still the best, but it can not save files after editing (as if the picture is on the external memory)...

backup this 5 apps

if you want to go back to htc dialer:

- /system/priv-app/DialerService

- /system/priv-app/HtcContactsDialer

- "/system/priv-app/HtcContactWidgets

- /system/priv-app/Telecomm

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nbrooks503:
I think that the problem is with google photos. If you have both google photos and the htc gallery app enabled, the photos are saved to your google photos account. If you delete them from your phone they will just refresh the next time google photos syncs. The answer might be to disable the google photos app or to not allow it to upload or sync photos to your google account. You can turn off the photo sync in accounts and sync under google just turn off google photos backup

But even so the gallery app will not save edited photos
