    boot loop while not plugged in (LG G6)

    OK! put the old battery in and it seems to be working fine after a day of use. No crashes or boot loops, so it must have been the battery. Kind of a bummer, because this battery loses juice very fast, but it's better than getting a crash during a call. Thankfully I can still return the battery.

    boot loop while not plugged in (LG G6)

It usually crashes when firing up an app that starts media i.e. Youtube or a podcast app. It is not consistent, however, and may crash when simply scrolling through a browser.

I've already stripped this thing down to the...

    Ha! sorry! forgot the most important part! It's an LG G6. When I make calls on speakerphone I have the same problem with the microphone; there is no sound/voice getting through o the other end unless I put my mouth right up on the mic, or yell. I didn't realize there were possibly 2...

    LG G3 loses sound after Marshmallow

    I'm having this exact problem. Any updates/solutions? I honestly think the amp for the external speaker is cutting in and out. My sound sometimes comes back while watching a video but it's usually a little "crunchy" sounding - moments of static as it comes in and out. It's a bummer not having...
