Suddenly, my wonderful LG G3 phone died. I used it faithfully for 3 years. The screen got very hot and it died. I brought in for servicing and was told the motherboard burned out. I love this phone. Can it be repaired? Do phones usually last only 3 years? The serviceman refused to fix it. I...

Same problem with all LG Phones. My LG G3 has 90% power at bedtime yet the battery dies during the night without any usage. During the day, I must bring along 3 fully-charged spare batteries otherwise it shuts down. The camera seems to drain the battery although I turn the brightness down to...

My LG G3 phone has a problem with displaying photos. When looking for all my photos, some have disappeared completely and all that remains is a shaded box showing where those photos used to be. How can I retrieve those photos? About one-third total can be seen. Why did the others disappear ?

On my LG G3 phone, some of my downloaded apps suddenly refuse to work. I get a message telling me that I must update Google Play Services. When attempting to update, the screen freezes. What should I do?

I have the LG G5 phone. I have noticed something strange with this and other phones I have used. Certain Apps seem to disappear off the screen. When I check, it says the App was downloaded but the logo of the App is nowhere on any screen. What is going on? How can an App just leave the screen?

I have it even worse. My LG G3 battery dies after I take just 4 or 5 photos. The power drops from 99% down to 77% and the phone dies. I must re-boot the phone yet the same thing happens until I re-charge the battery or put in a new battery. I often carry 4 or 5 spares!

I love the display on my LG G3 but the battery is always dying; even when used in Power Saver mode. When taking photos, the fully-charged battery strength lowers from 98% down to 77% after taking just 4 or 5 photos; this is a shame? After reaching 77%, the phone turns-off and must be re-booted...

When attempting to take a Screenshot, I press the power button + Volume down simultaneously. Unfortunately, the volume up/down appears on-screen when pressing volume & that volume screen appears on the Screenshot. How do I do Screenshots without the annoying volume bar ruining the shot?

I love my LG G3 but for the battery. After taking 6 photos, the unit shuts off & even after re-booting, the phone is dead. The battery drains to 70% yet the battery must be charged. The phone only works well while being charged. I carry 3 sparebatteries but they also last just a few minutes...

Taking Photos Can't figure my LG G3 phone. When taking photos, when a fully-charged battery reaches 80% of power, the phone turns-off and no further photos can be taken! I have lost my photos as a result plus the annoyance of the phone going dead is unbearable. The battery must register at...

If I do a factory reset, won't everything on my phone get deleted; including all photos, apps, texts. emails, etc. I can't chance it so I walk around with 3 extra batteries & keep changing after taking 20 photos or more. It seems that the photos drain the battery extensively. Shame since the...

Re: Replacement battery I lost the original LG G3 battery while switching batteries. The replacement battery has no brand name and is awful. Even fully-charged, it usually dies after 10 photos are taken although it shows 60% power remaining. Sometimes, by removing the battery in the field and...

Re: Lost my Yahoo Mail Account on G3 Thanks but it didn't work. I tried switching from Wi-Fi to 4G but still cannot get my Yahoo Mail. I have 1 clue; when I went into settings, the part about Synchronization, it says that the mail was last synched on Sept. 2 which is the last day my mail came...

Lost my Yahoo Mail Account on G3 I suddenly lost inbox/outbox Yahoo mailings on my G3 phone after Sept 2. I never changed any settings. I still can use my Yahoo Mail account on the laptop with no problem. I do notice that when I go into settings, a message states that the phone was last...

Thanks. I can't do a factory reset as I don't want to lose all my photos & phone #s, etc. I never heard of an FDR. What is that?
