I am using lg d605 for a while now. Everything worked fine before kitkat, but as soon as i upgradet, i started having an issue with messages. Sometimes (not always) i do not receive text messages and i never get them. It happens as rare as 1 in 30 messages, but it gets irritating if you are chatting with someone. At first i thought it is a problem with sim card. I've renewed it - nothing changed. After that i took my phone for a fix via phone warranty. They did not detect a problem and only rewrited the stock ROM. But... it did not solve my problem. As i have noticed afterwards, the problem was occuring if i had at least one app installed that is running as a background app. Like facebook, messanger and much more. As soon as i deleted facebook (it was the program causing issues back then, bet afterwards i learned that it was all aps that run in the background), the issue was gone, i have started to get all messages. How could I fix that? (I am not the only one in Lithuania facing this problem). I am open to any suggestions.
There are a lot of people having this problem in the Czech Republic. Currently, there is no known fix for this issue although some people had the signal receiver replaced (not sure if it helped, though). There seems to be suspiciously many software issues such as both background and foreground task being killed including the keyboard, hearing no sound during a phone call and other issues which can be temporarily solved by restarting the phone, i.e clearing the RAM.
My bet is the stock ROM (both JB and KK) which LG totally screwed up and aren't willing to admit it. If you don't mind messing with your phone a bit, I'd suggest trying either the CM or PA ROM which can be found on this forum.
Thank you for the replay

Does anyone ever have issues with the phone/dialer app?
If I try to call someone from contacts, I swipe on their name to the right and nothing happens, if I try again, I notice the contacts app has frozen OR I try to swipe again and nothing happens again. Eventually it might work after 2 or 3 goes.
Then I'll hang up after finally getting it to make the call and the phone immediately tries to make the calls I tried to make earlier... This happens fairly often but not all the time.
OR – (this happens rarely but does happen)
Phone rings, try to swipe the green answer thingo and it just bounces back to where it was, try to swipe/answer again nothing. I can't answer the call. Happened today, really pissed me off. Phone app crashed and refused to make a call after that for about a minute.
Sound familiar to anyone?
Using Android 2.3.5 Vodafone (Australia) stock unrooted.
Anyone?
Would love some help on this.
Yes I am facing the same issues as you.
A few observations:
problems exist on stock dialer app as well as third party dialer apps
It's an intermittent problem i.e. sometimes the problem shows and other times it does not
I was facing the same problem a couple months ago too, since i was running 2.3.3 so i had just upgraded to 2.3.6 and the problem had disappeared. But out of the blue it has again started now while i am running 2.3.6
Currently i am running on stock rom, cf rooted, latest modem.
Am looking for a permanent solution and will post a solution if i find one, in any case hope the official ICS release (due on the 15th) should solve the problem anyways.
Anyone else facing the same problem?
Updates
Usually clearing the cache and calvik cache does not help resolve the issue.
After posting the above post I had just created a ClockWork mod backup and Restored to the same. Dunno how but that resolved the issue, or to be exact, the issue did not surface for a couple days.
Today the issue actually became too much for me to be able to handle.
So I again cleared both cache and dalvik cache and then fixed permissions via CLockWork recovery menu.
Since then I am not facing the issue yet. Hope it works for you too.
(But this is just a preliminary observation and maybe the issue shall resurface with long term use)
p.s. really hoping that the impending ICS update will permanently fix said issue.
Hi Folks,
This was the closet forum I could find for my phone. I actually have the GS2 HD LTE (i757) from Bell Mobility in Canada. Monday I finally received my Jelly Bean Update (4.1.2) I wish I could say I an excited however it has caused me so much stress, Ever since I installed it my phone has been terrible laggy. ICS gave me no troubles but after seeing the huge performance boost in my Wife's i9100m last month when it was available to hers I did not hesitate to update mine. Below I will list my symptoms, as well as the steps I have done to resolve this. I have search everywhere for an answer and have come up with nothing. Also to note, my Friend in the office has a Galaxy Note with a different provider (Telus) who received the update the same day, we can put our phones side by side and we both experience the exact same issue.
Setup:
i757 (S2 HD LTE)
Not Rooted
Symptoms:
Swiping to unlock is choppy
Opening Messaging to text takes three part (Loads the body, loads previous message and then keyboard loads in the middle of the screen and works its way down.
30-45 second pause to open the dialer
when clicking the power button to get to the lock screen it shows the desktop for a second, then god to my lock screen wallpaper then my lock screen icons appear. After this I can swipe.
loading apps
at startup RAM is 558MB/737MB. I hit clear memory right away it goes to 394MB/737MB. But open any app I am back up to to 550MB-600MB
Things I have tried:
Install install was Down with Kies as a regular update with all my Apps still installed.
I Wiped Cache and down a Factory Reset
Reloaded the Stock ROM with Odin3 v1.85
In developer options I disabled animation for Window, Transition and Animator
I disabled ripple effect for lock screen
I disabled Google Now
Tried to Wipe Cache then resume use without reloading OS
Tried Disabling GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi and sync.
Installed Android assistant to clean up startup
Did another Factory Reset/Cache Wipe then install OS from MSD
None of these options have made a difference. The phone worked flawlessly on ICS, I don't know what else I can do. Has anyone experienced this issue? and if so have they fixed it?
At this point I will try anything before I take out the hammer and fix it for good. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
- Boots!
Also my Current status is Factory Reset/Wipe Cache OS Installed from SD Card nothing install.

Hi,
I have the exact same symptoms on my SGH-i757m.
The phone is brand new! I got it for the job, in replacement of my s2-i9100. As soon as I got it, I had the official ICS, then JB done to it...and it is an absolute disaster up to now.
Sometimes I can't even take an incoming call because the ''incoming call screen'' (with the green and red phones logo) freezes, giving me the ''com.android.phone has stopped'' error.
I'll be looking out for solutions, but I might just take it back to ICS soon...

Please keep this thread in mind, Anything I can find I will post it here. If you could do that same that would be great. My S2-i9100 was amazing with the Official JB release also. I am surprised more people are not complain online about this as I know my friend with the Note on Telus is having same issue (Update was released the same time for him) I also called Bell and their Tech support said they were receiving alot of the same issues since the May JB update..
Damn Lag has got my phone!
AH! damn update lag has got my phone and my girlfriends too! We both have the samsung galaxy HD LTE I757M phone and have exactly the issues all of you guys have. From extremely slow response to flickering and its just a pain in the ass. My girlfriend tried a factory reset which worked for about a week with no lag or anything but then just started the same lag issues we all have. A lot of people apparently are reporting that a factory reset does the charm but its only a matter of time before the issues creep back to your phone. Right now I am going to try a custom rom for our phones and hope that it works. If it does Ill post the results for you guys to hopefully benefit from.

I installed JB 4.1.2 today, saw some improvements, hope it is fixed for good !
The ram usage on boot (369MB / 737MB)
Sorry to post again !!
Okay, it started to lag as described by others. So I went back to 4.0.4... The battery life is better on Jelly Bean because it can reduce the screen's power (not just brightness)
I did this today, my last attempt with JB...
In Dial :: *2767*3855# (it formats everything, even sdcard, so backup your things before doing this !!!)
I configured ICS from the welcome screen (no gmail configuration, etc.)
Installed JB 4.1.2 from Kies.
I disabled the programs mentionned at my previous post...
There was still a lag when unlocking the phone. Tried Holo Locker and didn't do anything... still lags.
Then, I searched on the net :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224906
It seems TouchWiz has problems rendering Widgets on homescreen, so, I installed Nova Launcher to replace it.
For now, when receiving a SMS, after unlocking, the wallpaper can become black, but there is no lag like before. :good:
Same situation
My wife‘s i757m has the same situation. I wiped to factory and uninstall like "let's golf", google play music. Then it turned much better for about 1week and then be back lag lag lag again.
I have no idea why it is so ridiculous , cause my friend's I727(GS2HD rogers) is very good after he updated his in March.
Please help me SGH-1757M
I have the same Issues.
After upgrading the Phone to 4.1.2 bellow issues identified.
1) When Incoming call comes the Phone Frezes and Green and Red button on the screen does not work
2) Some times it works but when I get any call the Phone rings with black screen and after some time it comes with number and then caller id and then answer button
3) Every time when I went to Messaging it loads the messages with number and next updates the Caller ID and then body of the messages and text editor
4) Morning when alarm rings phone Freezes and does not allow me to stop the alaram and force restart the Phone.
I am having so amny problems like this .
Please suggest what we can do here to resolve these issues.
Hey everybody.
My girlfriend is having a terrible problem with her new Xperia Go. It's running the latest Stock Firmware and Kernel without Root and every time she gets an incoming call, the phone won't react for about 15 seconds and then a FC Popup appears. This happens as soon she tries to answer the call. We rebooted it and it worked as it should after a fresh boot, but as soon she uses apps like Whatsapp, Facebook and so on, the problem persists and it's kinda of frustrating. A smartphone should be able to handle those things and she's really disappointed. Thinks I've tried:
-Clear data and cache of Contacts and Phone.
-Hard Reboot
-Recently installed the latest update via OTA (I hoped the problem would get fixed, but unfortunately it's still there)
-Tried using the stock launcher since she uses Nova Launcher
If someone has got an idea of what's going on please reply this post. I don't know if I should root her phone or maybe install a custom ROM. Honestly I wouldn't like to do that since she's a Noob in Android and basically in Technology Stuff. But if that's the solution, I would do that. It's really frustrating.
Thanks! Hope anybody could help
EDIT: SOLVED!
I tried to limit the background processes in developer settings and set the maximum to 4 processes and it magically solved the problem!

Hello,
I got a very strange Problem.
When People call me, i can answer without Problems, even that wasnt since i started using android 4.4.4, but it started working when i smallered the dalvik cache and used low-ram attribute in build.prop.
But another Problem keeps:
I cant always call other people. I tip on the number, the phone app should open, but the Display keeps gray, with the status bar above, not more.
I cant cancel everything, the Phone seems to be fully crashed, but the guy gets the call, if he answers it, he hears me but i doesnt hear him !!!
So if i wont remove the battery fast enough, i also will pay for this call.
Anyone Problems with this behaviour ?
I got this Problem with every 4.2++ rom i tested, and i really dont know if it still persists with 4.1, because there is not really a rom which i would stay on (except the original ported xperia Z rom, which really sucks in design, apps, settings, etc)
I mean, am i the only one ? I think others should have this problem like me too, its a normal xperia U and i flashed the roms like they should be flashed.
I didnt found anything while googling, even on this side.
Dear All,
The case of my phone is quite peculiar because there are several very serious problems, that combine together and make it impossible to use.
> The main problem is the lag. Still after i flashed the CM 13 and i am using the last Boeffla Kernel it lags so bad that i can't use it properly. Sometime to launch an app takes 5/6 seconds. This isn't changed even with different configuration for the Kernel.
The problem connected with the lag is that it takes ages to launch the apps, specially the gapps. It takes ages to launch chrome or maps or gmail. usually after are being launched they work, but apps like chrome are difficult to use on multiple tabs for instance. In general the multitasking is very slow.
>Another problem is that after the screen is locked it it takes at least 3 seconds to to being reactivated, same timing with every phisical button that wake the device up.
>The last problem is that the connection, either 3g or any other, sometimes is present sometimes is not, but it doesn't depend on the area, for instance sometimes works in my room sometimes not.
Is there someone who can help me to find a solution for these problems?
@Volkert Gage:
If everything run fine before CM13, do a clean flash without GCrap and custom kernel - perhaps you fished the wrong GApps.
If there were problems before, go back to firmware to repair.

thank you for your adivice rp158,
The fact is that these kind of problems (except for the connection) are not new for the phone, i always had it, even with the original firmware.
Before the upgrade to CM 13 i tryed to sort it with the original firmware but nothing worked.
Anyway, can i ask you what gapps pack do you reckon might work better on the phone?
@Volkert Gage: I recommend strongly to flash latest firmware +factory reset. You can't expect any stable LP or MM, if Sammy JB struggles.
@rp158 i'll try to do so then, thank you.
