Don't have an answer for that question directly, but I can say it works very well with Chromecast, so don't let that be the deal breaker if it doesn't work with HDMI!
 
Update. I noticed my T mobile Lg V10 playing videos really choppy when I tested it alongside my brother's Lg G3, and said videos would freeze up totally with about 75% of the ones I'd test set at 1440p resolution. The vids that played were stuttering noticeably. The G3 handled all 8 to 10 videos I tested at 1440p with absolutely no problems , with a smoother frame rate as well. After much research I decided it's gotta be a very odd GPU issue /bug and I should attempt to return/exchange it before my 2 week return window passed. When I went in store to comeplete the process I decided to test the display model Lg V10, which was right next to the G4. So I tested them both simultaneously, and it too had the same video freezing issue at 1440p and played videos lackluster in comparison to the G4 which was 1 foot away and performing beautifully! Afterwards I explained and demonstrated the issue to the very condescending employee and store manager/supervisor, which they oddly passed off as a data signal issue or bug with the youtube app ,along with a couple other nonsensical excuses my brain couldn't even process at the time. Long story short, after nearly getting into a heated verbal dispute they refused to waive the $50 restocking fee for a replacement (I was planning on playing it safe and just get the G4) they said the phone ,"operates fine" and that their own G4,s and Galaxy Note's do the same thing sometimes. Mhm...right. I refused to pay 50 extra bucks to switch devices due to an obvious GPU defect that effects a noticeable percentage of V10 owners (just search forums like this and it's obvious). I decided to take the temporary loss and stick with this phone until the earliest moment I can use my jump on demand and get my 1st choice the G4.
 
I wish my finger print scanner worked at least 90% of the time.. I'm on my second phone and it still takes 2-4 scans to unlock or usually goes to the pin to unlock. doesn't matter if I have a case or not. This is more than frustrating......other than that, I really like the phone.

The issue you're having must have to do with how you're setting up your finger print. I get the percentage probably counts it as read but make sure that your actually placing your finger on the scanner as you would when unlocking the phone.
 
On the Verizon variant, there is no call duration in the dialer. There is an option for GSM phones, but not for CDMA. This is kind of a ridiculous feature to leave out.

I have a Verizon phone, and on my phone, it shows the call duration on the main screen of the dialer.

When you aren't in the dialer, it shows it in the secondary display.

That's very odd. Ok I see it now. It's not persistent and there is no log of it in the call history. I Just downloaded a new Dialer App that solves this issue for me. Gotta love Android.

Battery, DPI too large, dropped frames when scrolling, and size. I honestly think I'm gonna return it tomorrow.
 
Amazon has an OEM battery with charger dock for $39.99. I bought one, Thought it wouldn't hurt too have 2. I've always had 2 for my Samsung's.
 
One thing that I am having a problem with is the colors.. The pictures seem to be slightly faded and the home screen the same. It seems like everything is slightly faded or washed out. If it was a TV I would just adjust the contrast or color.... Is there a setting on the V10 that I just can't find?

Need to update, I did a Reset System Setting to default and it fixed everything.. The colors are bright and perfect... I assume I hit something at some point to change something... Phone is back to perfect

In the stock dialer if you look at the RECENT tab you will see the calls, click on the call and you will see durations and history

Opps blacked out one number but not both, so if you want to call time warner cable this is the number :)

I bought my LGV10 two days ago and it is freezing in apps. It will not let me shut down. I have to take the battery out to rest. This has happened about 6 times in the last two days. I love LG and just upgraded from the LG GFlex, I have no other issues with the phone...is this a known issue or did I just get a bad phone. I never had this issue before with LG. I love my Pinterest and FB apps so freezing is a major problem for me,

Didn't you restore from a backup created with the LG GFlex ? If so, I would suggest doing a factory reset and installing all your apps manually. I have seen issues with restoring from backup when changing devices in the past on several different devices. (Moto, LG, HTC, etc.) 99% of the time most issues can be resolved with a new device when you manually install everything from scratch out of the box. After that you can use backups to restore should you need to.
