I have a dying LG V20. I have backed it up to google drive In my new(er) LG V20 I log onto my google account, I go to Settings->General->System->Backup LG Mobile Backup & restore->restore reports no backups on google drive Google Backup finds a backup on Google drive but only allows me to...

No pre-installed apps by carrier that I can see but still i get notifications on my moto E3 android 6.0. Very irritating. What else can i try

Im hoping you are right. Encouraging that others have found SD card errors appear to contribute to other odd circumstances. I will consider this 'solved' and start a new thread is the problem recurs

OK will that provided some insights. Seems there was an error in the SD card. chkdsk /F didn't show a problem but format reported Track 0 unusable. Different SD card installed and problem has not so far recurred - but very few photos taken. Does not really explain internal storage problem or...

I dont create many files. However, I have a load ot Whatsapp photos and they all appear to be fine. And Ive never had a problem with a screenshot So I think it highly unlikely that it is the storage medium (SD card or internal memory) and is more likely something to do with the camera or the...

And then another. This one produced thumbnail only. Really weird because I (am sure I) checked in the gallery to see if it was OK and it was. Then an hour later when I went to show it to someone, only the thumbnail was there. I'll do some more carefully documented testing including safe...

No it hasn't. Took 3 photos successfully on Sunday and then today (16:00 ish) tried a couple and got the 0 file size problem (and no thumbnail). Just (17:00) took another one and that worked fine. #Confused !

OK Did all that Taken 3 pics OK. Will need a few days nd a few random photo opportunities to determine if problem has gone away. Botched photos clearly u/s - bummer

Thanks Only noticed ti with teh OEM camera app. Whatapp pictures seem to be fine. One video camera app video showed the same symtoms Screenshots seem to be OK Hope to test Safe mode later today

Pictures not visible in gallery (either simply not there or as a grey logo (mountain outline + exclamation mark) so I went looking with explorer to see where they were. Then discovered thumbnail folder (which has some but not all) and some zero length files in the DCIM folder So yes B.Diddy...

SD card - did the standard test for duff sticks (write over whole stick and see if it can be read back) Think I have done pretty much everything that was recommended. So I'll take 48 hours out and put together the results of a series of tests. HTH?

SD card scanned and tested on PC already. Flawless. As mentioned above, problem happens when camera is told to save to internal storage as well

Hi guys (of all genders!) and thanks for the interest 1. It is the sandard camera appp 2. I have checked the SD card and internal storage 3. Both have a thumbnail folder 4. Some photos * produce nothing * produce a thumbnail only * produce an empty file (0 bytes) It did it again today. 2 lots...

Hi Moto G3 - been working fine then. Couple of times battery ran out but recharge and restart was fine. This time it wont start. Plugged into charger for an hour or so but pressing the power button does nothing Tried Power on + Vol up for 30 seconds which produced a charging battery symbol...

My issue went away when I set the router to only broadcast wifi on 2.4Ghz and disabled the 5Ghz signal
