LG G3: demigod crash handler kernel crash..

Tue, 25 Oct 2022 04:26:16 -0700

My lg g3 phone goes to a blue screen.. Then turns off. It will then come up with a green screen and a kernal crash.. It gives instructions to reboot.. But that doesn't work! Did a hard reboot which worked for a few hours then it happens again!! My Sprint carrier said "too bad" cause I don't have insurance.. Help!! I don't want to spend the $350 they said it will cost me... I think the software update my phone last had was corrupt! Or did not finish properly!! I am at a loss.. Now it says this error..

LG G3: Phone gets stuck on LG logo start up screen and flashes repeatedly?

Fri, 29 Aug 2025 18:18:55 -0700

My LG G3 switched off by itself and the battery was at 50%. It now will not switch on. The LG logo start up screen comes on for a second then it goes black and does this repeatedly. The same thing happens when i charge it. The charging icon appears and then flashes on and off. I am not concerned about the phone. What I do want to know it how can I retrieve my photos?

LG G3: Microphone stopped working when making calls, hands free works?

Fri, 14 Apr 2017 00:38:56 -0700

When I make a call on my LG G3 the person on the other end hears me either in a muffled voice or not at all, when I make a call on speaker phone the other person hears me perfectly. I have tested this by making calls to many different people with the same result each and every time, so it is microphone related. I spoke to Verizon and they agreed saying the the the regular phone microphone and the hands free microphone are 2 separate microphones. They offered to replace the phone under warranty, however that means I would be getting a re-built unit and will have lost the 40+ hours I have spent to customize my phone. When I stopped into a Verizon store they "blew out the microphone" just to certain there was not any dirt in it, any ideas on what I might do to correct the problem?

Thank you

I just got an LG G3 from Ebay, so it is not under warranty. I noticed that the power and volume button pad on the back of the phone doesn't work. When charging, the phone charging light comes on and tells me that it is 100% charged, but I can't get the phone to actually turn on. Can you help me?

LG G3: No sound from Top Earpiece speaker after screen replacement

Mon, 20 Jun 2016 08:39:43 -0700

My Niece dropped and broke Lg g3 digitizer. I replaced it with lcd and digitizer with frame. One thing I didn't install is tiny daughter board all the way in bottom.

After powering on phone, I can not hear anyone from my top earpiece speaker but clearly hear them from when I transfer call to speaker.

Is daughter board needed and what's it's functionality? Top earpiece in anyway connected to daughter board?

One more thing I also lost about 3 screws and looking up online only source looks like ebay at $10.00. I can't justify paying that much for tiny screws. Any leads on replacement for them?
