Strange menu button problem? - T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For the past week or two, I've been having an issue with the menu/back button on the top left portion of my screen. The problem is that when I press the button on the screen, it does absolutely nothing. It happens with several different apps such as email, Facebook, chrome, gallery, etc. No matter how hard I push on the screen, the button does absolutely nothing and it is driving me crazy. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I should also add that this happens both in portrait mode and landscape.

There have been lots of posts/threads on this! Seems to be Facebook Messenger causing the issue..

+1 on seeing that it has been reported to be caused by the Facebook messenger app. Mine doesn't have a problem so it's apparently an issue with one version.
People have been successful fixing it by uninstalling updates to the app or uninstalling the app all together.
Hoping for a fix from Facebook. I'm glad mine doesn't have this problem!

Thank you guys for your input. I will try to uninstall Facebook Messenger to an older version and see what happens.

YUP! I have the same issues. Just went to tmobile and because I am past the 14 days I was told to contact LG and see about a fix. The only temporary fix is to shut off the phone take out the battery for 30 seconds and then restart the phone. It fixes the menu/back button briefly. I end up doing this 3 -4 times a day.

My LG V10 shows that I can't uninstall because it is a built-in app. I did clear cache and the menu/back button is now working. Let's see if that is a permanent fix for me.

You can disable it. Did it on another non rooted device and wha la fixed.

And if you need to use FB Messenger, you may try uninstalling updates to the app and turning off automatic updates to the app in the Play Store.... maybe the version that shipped with the phone doesn't have the bug. Also, others have mentioned alternative messengers apps for messaging thru FB.

Google Finance not working

I have the Google Finance app on my Defy+. In the last few days I noticed that the ticker had stopped updating. Tapping on the widget gets me an incomplete share price page and the title line says "Loading" continuously - it never finishes loading
I tried uninstalling Google Finance and re-installing it from Play. The result of that was that I couldn't add a share to the ticker list at all
Fortunately I had a Ti backup of the app so I restored that, with its data, and I now have the share back in the ticker - but it's still not updating. I've tried adding a different share to the ticker and it just sits there with the sync icon in the notification area, achieving nothing.
It's as if Google Finance can't talk to Google any more. All my other network apps, including eg Google Maps, work fine.
Anyone got any ideas?
I have the same problem, but my prob only started midday today
I also have the same problem. No idea what to do.

Its like Finance has been dying a slow death. I haven't been able to get my widget to auto update at all for months on multiple phones. Now this. I really wish there was another compact widget that would simply give me the current dow. Time to move on. Anyone have any suggestions?
The app called "stocks" uses your google finance portfolios and seems to work still (indicating a server-side problem for google). I don't like it as much as Finance, but at least it works. Doesn't come with a widget, though
Thanks but I really need a home screen widget
---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------
I think it says something that we are the only three people across the world making noise after Finance goes non-functional for about 3 days now.
I thought it was surprising that no one complained when the widget quit auto updating months ago. Here it goes completely dead and hardly a word.
If anyone is interested, I tried most of the widgets and this one is the only one that seemed to work and auto updated in as little as 1 min increments per the settings.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.inox.inostock&hl=en
I have the same problem
For the past few days It didn't update any stock quotes. I deleted data and uninstalled then reinstalled and now it doesn't even update my portfolio from Google Finance server and can't add new stocks or do nothing. It is completely non-functional now.
I'm also having the exact same problem on HTC Evo 3D.
- App wasn't syncing
- Deleted data and lost my portfolio
- Reinstalled and still not working
- Sync icon stays in the left hand corner but it does not update
The portfolio is still available on the full/mobile websites.
Same problem here with my motor RAZR Maxx. Widget stopped updating so I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now I can't get it to sync with my saved stocks.
Hmmm... yesterday I needed to rebuild my Galaxy S2 phone (had tried a different OS and had problems restoring the original). I had deleted google finance 2 days ago.
Today I reinstalled Finance, just to see.... and it's working fine! Got my portfolio reloaded and replicates prices nice & fast!
Soooo either Google Finance just started working again for everyone, or the solution to the problems reported here is some sort of delete..wipe..reinstall cycle
Good luck ladies & gents.

Apparently no reinstall needed. Wonder if by some miracle auto update started working also. We'll see when the market opens.
I sent an email to the support email address in the app and now it's working. Maybe they do read those emails.
Yup, working for me again now. Must have been a Google problem. (I did e-mail them about it twice but didn't hear anything back.)
Now all I have to do is find the RBS stock mnemonic which gives me the real current price of RBS ordinary shares. I know they're not great but 7.45p sure ain't right...
Google's Problem
I second ejstubb's assessment. I initially uninstalled / reinstalled with no resolution. As of last night, it seems to be working fine, so i can only assume it was a problem on Google's end.
Does anyone except me care about the fact that the stock monitor widget has quit auto updating months ago? I guess no one uses it?

I just checked the settings and mine was set to 4 hours. Maybe that is why I thought it wasn't auto updating. I just set it to 30 minutes.

Any update to this? I can't beliieve this is the only thread about this issue online. I have a black C105 unlocked from the UK purchased off ebay and being used with T-Mobile here in CA. It might be helpful if everyone state these details to help narrow down the issues or suspects. Just purchased this phone and this is a NO-GO if other apps can cause a simple issue like this to become a BIG issue. I had skype also and just uninstalled it. Before I wait any longer, what were your results?

i checked recently updated apps.. in market.. and that was the only app that was accessing the camera.. i think u should do a check on all apps that access your camera. and uninstall. one by one. Pierre
I have had this issue,I uninstalled Skype and now the camera is okay and does not open randomly.
yes guys, its SKYPE - lens opens when you connect to wifi or internet, because then SKYPE automatically login you, turns on, and acces camera - thats the reason why opens itself uninstall SKYPE or leave it that way... only solution is some update from skype, but i dont think its possible (skype is checking accesibility of cameras when turns on, but on our zoom it opens it)
THANKS!

Glad i found this thread, uninstalled SKYPE and no more lens popping out. Previously i thought it was because of a change in connection between wifi and hsdpa. :good:
No wonder i could not find the problem or apps that cause this issue, because skype is not even in the running processes or background processes.
Skype Android App
This error where the SGS4 Zoom lens randomly opens (and opens on startup aswell) can be traced in Xprivacy to the "configuration" method found under the "phone" heading for Skype.
Are there any other apps that cause this error? A list of avoidable apps would be useful for SGS4 Zoom owners.
Sometimes some apps trigger camera to open, we can control their functions of triggering by using xposed modules.
It's very hard to make out the list as their might be lots of such apps.
Sent from my SM-C105 using XDA Free mobile app
Viber android app
Viber is now also causing this problem.
You can fix it either by uninstalling viber or by rooting your phone and installing Xprivacy.
The method call that is making this happen is called "loadLibrary" and can be found under the Shell heading in Xprivacy, but viber stops functioning when the method is disabled so a full viber uninstall seems like the only proper solution.
Just a thought.
Would if someone is trying to tap into our devices and that's why the camera keeps popping out because someone is trying to watch us or something... Because I never downloaded Skype on my device and it never had it.

Fb messenger causes this too

[Q] Error Message - w-home not responding

Anyone else see this? My Gear S is freezing up and giving me this error message. Resets and rebooting does not help.

YES! Annoying as hell!
I had this same problem after installing an app that, I think, was written for the Gear 2, and quickly (sloppy) patched to work with the S..
I did most everything I could to get the error to stop, but once the issue starts...that's it...the remedy is within the currently inaccessible system files.
In the end, I had to do a full reset AND setup. And, FYI, I was unable to use the restore function from any of the previous backups (this only replicated the error).

I had the exact same problem and had to reset without restore. Problem is probably related to one of my recent installs, most likely one of the following (sorry I am not able to narrow it down further):

It seems that there is a number of applications that can trigger it. I do not know enough to spot what they have in common but I found another culprit: Appy Geek for Gear. Keep it installed you face the problem in one of its notifications. Uninstall it, the problem is gone.
It also seems that until you find which app gives you the problem, there is a way to avoid it: Turn Notifications off from the Android Gear Management app.
I don't have any of those apps and I had the device do that to me as well. I rebooted the Gear and the issue continued, but once I cleared all 50 of my notifications, I haven't had that problem.

Was able to clear notifications and that seemed to resolve it. The timing was every 2-3 days for me and then the lock up would start. I have minimized notifications to only the most critical ones (which makes sense). So far so good.

I hada same trouble with news republic... Very annoying!
Actually, as somebody else said it is because of the notifications. The apps don't really do anything to the watch unless they're running and they crash your phone. I would've assumed that notifications would clear from the watch once they were cleared from the phone but they just accumulate over time. The problem seems to be that each new notification adds another page to the homescreen to the left. Just clear your notifications every once in a while and it will stop freezing up, it did with me.

android.process.acore has stopped

I have a Verizon LG G3 running stock/rooted 4.4.2.
Today, for the 2nd time, I started receiving the unfortunately, the android.process.acore has stopped error It pretty much just constantly pops up, non stop.
Last time a few months back, I fixed it with a factory reset (annoying).
Today, it started again. I tried clearing contacts and contacts storage and google service framework, but none of that helped.
Wound up doing another factory reset.
This time, it was working fine until I added an exchange account to sync calendar and email and then I started getting the error again. I don't think that was the trigger though because of what else I figured out.
It appears as if I uninstall facebook, the error goes away. I tried uninstalling facebook, clearing contacts and contacts storage and then reinstalling, but it starts again once it gets reinstalled.
I've done this back and forth enough times now that it's clearly being caused by the facebook install. It starts as soon as I log into facebook after I install it.
I guess at least it's nice to know I can uninstall facebook and I'm good, but I want to use the facebook app still.
So now what?

throw fb in the trash, its the devil lol
there are a bunch of possibilities, i would start by looking for any apps you may have deleted or disabled. fb may be trying to use one and cant, thus the crash.
i found that suggestion, and more, here. wassnt specific to fb, but some of the fixes seem universal.

Actually from the link you posted a couple of people also said they uninstalled facebook and it fixed it.
I haven't changed the apps that I've got disabled in a very long time. I doubt facebook is looking for something else. I'm really stumped here. I install fb and the phone starts going crazy with these errors, uninstall and all is good.
There's got to be way to fix this.

hi,
my lg g3 s gorilla glass and the digitizer got damaged, but there is no impact on the display, its clear.
this error starts poping up.
i changed the whole display set , its a duplicate one, not the original lg s.
still the error pops up.
i think the error arises because the software is detecting it as a duplicate.
but at the same time, its getting triggered by fb messenger and whatsapp.
i think its time to go for a cutom OS.

new update from Tmobile

I just installed an update from tmobile something about bug fixes and security . Sorry was to busy to write down the details but hope it fixes the phantom touches..
UPDATE 2: Oh no, it actually made the phantom touches worse, now instead of just the top section where you have the camera droop the thumb coordinates would trigger buttons on that spot, but now with the update, according to the touch sensors from developer options it shows the left and right touch coordinates will trigger even more around the screen. I think it just broke this phone.
Can anyone pls confirm this. The update has made the phantom touches worse and now my phone is unusable to play games because it always triggers buttons I don't touch when I make certain movements playing the games or apps

Thanks, I tried. Even had the phone replaced. T-Mobile thinks it might be the provisioning on my account, but I don't buy it since Google messages works. But I'm stumped, I can't even send a simple meme to someone on the stock app. I just says sending forever and never goes. I've tried wifi, 5g, 4g, resetting apn settings etc... Craziest dam thing

Please enable developer options and then enable the two options, show touches and show touch data. On my V60 when I hold the phone horizontally as if to game using my left and right thumbs the touch data will show lines intersecting for each thumb press and the coordinates where the lines touch will show a circle indicating that point will trigger any onscreen button that it will touch. Can you pls try this, so I can see if I have a defective V60. Thanks

I get errors with screenshots that say can't send, then I retry and am presented with 2 options, retry with original size or send as MMS. The photos always go thru when I choose MMS. However, I have an issue with stock as well. Can't attach a gif, only sends a link, and no notification in AA unless it's a short code message. I'm getting real tired of having to switch to 3rd party to do those 2 things and then back again to see typing and delivery indicators and faster photo sharing.

You can use Google messages and get the RCS experience without switching back and forth. I would just prefer to use the stock app if it would work

The stock app is definitely much nicer then it used to be. I very much prefer it over Android messages when/if it's working. Thankfully like I said it just happened to start working for me again. Maybe it's just TMobile and google ironing out all the kinks who knows.

What's your favorite function or 2 of the stock app vs. Google Messenger?

I know the question wasn't aimed at me, but I like the ability to pin certain conversation to the top, schedule messages, and it just looks much nicer in my opinion

Those are two great options Google doesn't have. I use a scheduling app which is a nice work around.

Also google messages seems to be a pretty major battery drain at least it was for me in the past. Not sure if it is anymore.
I really wish they had a changelog for this update... Two of my main issues are the speakerphone phone calls cutting off and the auto brightness

Auto brightness and speakerphone seem to be fixed with this update.

How can you schedule messages on stock? I don't have an option for it

Nope, auto brightness is still broken
So far for me speakerphone seems to be fixed, haven't tested auto brightness to see if anything has changed.
