LG G2: Small row of screen unresponsive?

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 07:34:41 -0700

I have an LG G2. It works great.

Yesterday I noticed some weird behavior. The screen was finicky and hard to use. (I noticed it while playing Candy Crush—I couldn't switch certain candies in an area... LOL). The screen is not cracked or anything. The picture looks perfect...

I decided to open up an app where I could draw, and it turns out that I can't get any input on a perfect row about an inch or so from the top of the screen. The row is about half an inch thick and runs all the way from one side to another. I can color the whole screen, but it's perfectly blank on that one row.

I did some research and figured it might be some loose connector with the digitizer. Is this possibly an easy fix?

Thanks!!!

LG G8 ThinQ: How do I get out of retail mode for my lg g8 thinq

Sun, 07 Sep 2025 01:52:08 -0700

Update. Ive gotten the password for retail mode and its L310MC570G, someone posted it on this site. So i can do more than i could before with this phone, download apps music etc, the thing is though id prefer if retail mode wasnt on here at all anymore. Cause there are still some things i cant do even if i put password in, it says see store manager to unlock or something around those lines. My question i guess is how tf do i get that off my phone

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 G6: Moisture Detected, Charging is blocked.

Sun, 06 Jul 2025 20:55:34 -0700

Hi, my father has an LG G6, and it has been saying moisture detected and prevented the device from charging. We have tried MANY things, putting it in a bag of rice even though he knew he didn't drop it in water or anything, using compressed air, rubbing alcohol in the port, WD40, EVERYTHING we could find online. But we have heard you can shut off the moisture detection, BUT all the videos we find are of different carriers "secret menu codes" so we can't figure it out. We have sprint, any help we can get? This seems to be a very common issue with the G6. I personally NEVER buy LG phones, because I know all the issues they have had in the past and present.

LG G5: Repairing & cleaning a water damaged LG G5 (Backlight not working)

Mon, 28 Apr 2025 04:38:19 -0700

Hello!

I recently left my phone in the pouring rain for about 10-15 minutes (long story, i'm an idiot basically) and now I'm left with a dead back light. After sitting in rice for about 3-4 days, everything was working perfectly other than the "auto" brightness option (it would just stay on whatever setting I left it at). But recently my back light decided to give up completely and I'm only able to /barely/ read my phone by shining a flashlight on it. As far as I can tell, everything else seems to be working fine!

It's been a little over two weeks since the incident (backlight stopped working 3 days ago) and I KNOW I shouldn't have waited this long to take apart my phone, but I was terrified to do it until now~

Here are some pictures of the water damage:

https://i.gyazo.com/0562940839b0b1ecc7e3...

https://i.gyazo.com/fb31052e3b1e9a4048c5...

If it isn't obvious, I don't have a whole lot of an idea of what on earth i'm doing, but i'm assuming this blob (corrosion?) is part of the issue)

https://i.gyazo.com/35ddadcdf3bc2dd4f65b...

I can also unscrew the logic board if needed (:

So my question is -- Are there any areas that I need to NOT get isopropyl alchohol on? I know I need to use something stronger than 90% so I'll have to go search for that :p

And after cleaning everything, do you think if I replace the LCD screen WITH the frame attached, it will fix my backlight issue?

Thank you for any help!!

LG G6: How can I disable the proximity sensor in my LG Q6?

Sun, 12 Jan 2025 20:52:40 -0700

Okay, I have an LG Q6 (not the G6) but Q6 was not an option in the device list on this forum. Guess the phone is newer than the list.

Anyways, proximity sensor. Normally, one can turn that off (disable it) in the call settings under the phone app. Unfortunately, I do not see such an option on the Q6.

The purpose of the proximity sensor is to turn off the screen when you put the phone to your ear so you ear doesn't touch the "touch screen" and hang up calls. (You can just as easily tap the power button quickly to turn off the screen before putting it to you ear but LG thought a proximity sensor might automate things a bit.)

The problem I have, is that I have a severe visual impairment so I often have to put the phone's screen inches from my eyes to see it and, as a consequence, the proximity sensor shuts the screen off. Bloody !&&*.

I just want to disable the proximity sensor completely and there's no option in settings. And yes, I've looked MANY times.

When I turn my phone on after its been off for awhile it has vertical white lines on it. Also when my screen is dark (not the brightness) but for example if im playing a game and it goes black for a second it will have lines but fade away when the screen is bright again. My phone screen is already damaged it has black spoltches at the bottom but i haven’t found anything on google. Thank you! :)
