    Pausing of Games

    I found the pausing issue as the app became much more aggressive over time. It was caused by some app named "Fun Camera" that added photo filters. After throwing full screen video ads when not even running I uninstalled it and all the pausing issues of the games stopped. The performance hit...

    Pausing of Games

    I just got a V35 'unlocked' and wonder if someone can answer a few questions based on experience of this phone or other similar symptoms. First, the Pie update doesn't seem to be available due to me not running AT&T. I'm consumer cellular but running on their T-Mobile wholesale for...

    Unable to send game screenshots using MMS.

    Maybe, but it's sad that I have to download another app to do something that every phone should do natively, and every other device I've tested is able to do except mine. I also forgot to mention that the 9MB photos off the camera never have a problem. LG can't seem to control the size or...

    Unable to send game screenshots using MMS.

    I tried searching the forums but keep getting connection is refused so let me know if this is already posted. I have a LGUS991 G4 still running 5.1 and seems to be a forever 5.1 device but that's a different story. I can take screenshots of games but am unable to send them via MMS and always...

    How do I force a software update from a different carrier?

    So I contacted LG about this as I can't seem to find any other solution to get this updated and got one reply. They informed me it is indeed a US Cellular model but 1. unlocked and 2. not registered in their system. They claimed that the only way to upgrade it is to sign up for service with...

    How do I force a software update from a different carrier?

    I pulled the SIM Memory card and skipped all authentication options after a factory reset. It still showed up to date via OTA and PC Software. I guess I'm stuck with 5.1 unless I want to flash the thing. Thank you for all the ideas.

    How do I force a software update from a different carrier?

    Also, does yours have any US Cellular apps on it? Reading other forums it sounds like the US991 was sold as both a US Cellular version and also an unlocked version that has no trace or relation of US Cellular. Confusing.....

    How do I force a software update from a different carrier?

    Did you have the SIM in the phone when it got the upgrade? Maybe I can try that after a reset I guess. I'd at least like to get off of 5.1 hoping the battery is much better in the 6.x.

    How do I force a software update from a different carrier?

    Thanks for the idea. I finally got the software to see the phone and it said I had the most up to date version as well. The phone claims I have US99111a version installed which isn't even on their web page.

    How do I force a software update from a different carrier?

    How to Force Software update from a different carrier? I bought a lgus991 that is still on 5.1. The articles I found said 6.0 was released back in January by US Cellular (the carrier the phone is from) but I'm using Consumer Cellular and wonder if this is the reason it keeps saying their is no...
