So, a few weeks back my Mozart started presenting problems... In it's defence, i've had that device for approx. 2 years and if you see the state it is in right now, you'd be surprised it survived this long!
Now I love Windows Phone and my next device would have been Windows Phone 8 but alas, I need a stable phone with me always and thus can't rely on the Mozart in its current state. So I sold off my iPad 2 and went ahead and bought a HTC One X and initially loved it but grew to dislike it... mainly due to random crashes (probably a device manufacturing defect) but most importantly due to the poor battery life.
So I sold off the One X and purchased a iPhone 4S however after a few days of usage, some microphone issues emerged. I got it replaced and soon enough, the issues surfaced on the new device. Checked online and a huge number of users are apparently facing issues with iPhone 4s as well... so then returned that and got a iPhone 4...
But alas! Websites on Safari were a pain at times, cellular data would kill itself during a call though it didn't happen always, and some other stuff as well... So now i've sold it off and am in the market for a new phone.
Today i returned my cousin's HTC One X and got a Galaxy S3... have been testing it out and am loving it so far... Especially the battery! Charged it up to 67%... have had Exchange Sync (Push) turned on, two Gmail accounts on 15 minutes sync, Facebook and twitter push, and made at-least over a dozen calls some of them going over 10-15 minutes... and a game here or there plus an hour at the gym with continuous music playback and referring to a workout app... and in 3 hours time, it's battery has gone from 67% to 49%!!!
If it were my One X, it would have pretty much died by now or come close to it. Even the iPhone 4 didn't produce such good battery results for me - but close nonetheless.
So now i'm considering to the store tomorrow and purchasing a S3 for myself! Wanted to see if anyone here could provide any feedback on usage based on a couple of weeks or days of usage of the device? Battery life? any crashes? Anything else?
UPDATE
Forgot to ask another important question... Now forgive my ignorance, but I am kind of new to Android - although I did use XDA numerous times to flash my brother's X10 + Arc and Sis-in-law's HTC Chacha... when i purchased this phone today for my cousin, it was a packed box. On opening and starting it up, it asked for a PIN code to activate. Which i Imagine meant that it was carrier locked?
The shop owner disappeared for 10 minutes and returned back with the phone unlocked and ready to use. He said he got it unlocked by using a proper code and all... and to be on the safe side, as soon as i got home, i did a hard reset and it didn't lock out on me. However, I do notice "ClockworkMod" installed on the S3 and also the state of the device in settings is set to Modified. What does this mean? Any cause for concern?
Regards!

The shop owner probably rooted your device in order to unlock the phone (rooting voids your warranty), do you see a superuser app in the app drawer?
If so, install Triangle Away from the playstore or Chainfires thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114 and reset the flashcounter. Than go back to the shop and let him reflash the rom to restore warranty.

If its just warranty... then not worried about that. As i purchased this one for my cousin without the warranty - Rs. 5000 cheaper (approx. $50).
But thanks though, this is good to know... 'coz I was planning on purchasing mine with the warranty!
Battery life is a lot better than the one x..... the s3 should easily be able to get you through a day of heavy use and have juice to spare.

I've had the SGP 4.2 since August (North American version) and have become very fond of it. Although I've followed most of the dev areas, I have never rooted or installed any recovery, custom roms, etc...so it's on the stock Android 2.3.6 with 2.6.35.7 kernel and build number GINGERBREAD.UELD3. I have only installed things from the play store and amazon app store.
Sometime in the past week it has started shutting down randomly. Most times I notice when picking it up after hours of standby and it's fully off and need to boot up. A few times it has happened while in use - it just turns off. The battery level doesn't seem to matter, it can happen at 99%, 5%, and anywhere between.
Is there any way to tell if this is a hardware problem vs a software problem? Any other thoughts? I've not seen this problem in other threads, or at least not when running everything stock.
maybe a hardware issue.
see if samsung will fix/replace it

that was happening to me too. i just bought mine from best buy about 1.5 months ago. everything was fine, mine also wasnt ever rooted or flashed anything - just oem with playstore apps. then every now and then after about a month of having it, it would turn off and on by itself (only if it was idle though, without me touching it) its never happend to me while i was messin around with it. and then it started freezin up on me and gettin really laggy at times with certain programs but it was random and i couldnt reproduce it to try and pinpoint the program that was causing it. but then i read up on rooting it and the benefits of root and cwm and backingup everything and roms and since then, everythings perfect. better than new as a matter of fact. so in my opinion, you owe it to yourself to root your device so you can make changes to your lil buddy. i made sure i learned all about rooting and flashing and backups etc first though so i can do it safely. i mean, cmon i dont know about you but i paid alot of money for mine which is why i owed it to myself to 'safely' release the full potential of my device. :cyclops:
Totally agree that I want to start to release the full potential, thats' whay I've been poking aorund here for months (and tinering with my Acer tablet is getting old). My hesitation to start down that path is if there's a hardware issue I don't want to compound the inevitable probelms and end up with an out of warranty bricked device
Maybe I'll see what Samsung says. Like the previous poster - i can't directly replicate the issue so perhaps they won't replace, I'll see and update this post accordingly.

well one of the good things bout this forum is that it explains how to un-brick our devices if it happens. it was kind of intimidating at first for me too as this is the first android ive ever rooted and flashed diff roms. but as long as you make backups thru titanium and also a nand backup thru cwm and then use roms and kernals specifically made for your device that have been tried and tested and retried....then you really have nothing to worry about. and i also read somewhere that if you flash it yourself and somehow manage to brick your device, you can flash everything back to stock so your warranty wont be voided anymore - i could be wrong but im almost positive ive read that somewhere.
Good day everybody i was going to grab an lg v10 yesterday but once i read about the boot loop issue i stepped back and now i cant really decide if this is a serious major issue that affected a large sum of devices or just few unlucky ones .. here i have no warranty so ill be burned if i got hit by one of those defected units .. also there aint any info about if there was a specific batch thats was defected or a production date thats related to the issue .. so is this a serious issue to be considered like in the g4 or it was just few defected units ? How serious is it ? Is it a pandemic ? I really wish its not as its been weeks im comparing and i finally settled fully on the v10 as it seems the complete package ..
There have been a couple of threads lately with this question. So I can only repeat what I wrote there.
I have a V10 (H960A) for a couple of months now and never had any bootloops. I'm very happy with this phone. It's fast and reliable, only the battery could have larger capacity.
Same here. I m using H901 (oct 2015 manufacturing) and so far it is working fine without any issue.
When you search on google the amounts of people complaining about this issue is seriously scary .. also there aint any pattern .. people from all over the world and from different regions are reporting .. the one common thing is that it does not show up early most people reported it after few months of usage ...
This thread alone is terryfing ..
https://m.reddit.com/r/lgv10/comments/4yao1s/v10_bootloop_please_report_in_this_sticky_thread/
Its a pandemic i think so .. this is definitely not a bad luck .. this is a clear manufacturing defect ...
Mine bootlooped...I've only had my replacement for a couple weeks. I think the problem is pretty widespread.

Thanks for opening my eyes ... I think now im gonna head towards the 6p although i really wanted the v10 because of the dac but its just too much risk ..
Lg didnt even care to achnowleadge such defect which only causes more disrespect from my side at least ... Samsung screwed up but they payed for it bravely ... Lg is no longer a trusted manufacturer for me ...
I've had mine 10 months and no boot loop issue. People with negative results tend to out represent the ones with no problems.
For example, not many people would come here to say how great their phone is but many would come here with compliants and issues because that is generally what this forum deals with.
I think the issue is overblown myself.
Further I use battery drainers which makes the phone pretty hot and I haven't run into an issue.

No, I love the V10 but this is a real issue. I think your phone is just a little older than mine was but not much. It hasn't happened yet but it still may...

I'm sure most have read many of the horrible bootloop stories about the v10 by now but I want to still try & save anyone out there from possibly getting this horrible phone! My bf & I both got the LGv10 & we have both had the dreaded bootloop. So anyone that has a v10 better have all of their information backed up!!! It comes out of no where without any type of warning at all & after it goes into bootloop there is no return. I have read multiple threads on freezing & baking the motherboard of the phone to revive it long enough to backup data so i will be testing these methods over the weekend & i am going to cry myself a river if i can't revive it long enough to backup my pictures :crying:
Before the bootloop issue, i enjoyed everything about the phone except for the 2 hour battery life which kind of killed all positive features of the phone as this was a huge struggle the entire year i owned the v10. The battery seemed fine for maybe 3 months into use, but then took a cliff dive & wouldn't hold a charge worth a crap from there on after. It also would get hot during phone calls & while on the charger. It was practically impossible to not use this phone while on the charger sometimes because it's life span was so short. Phone games rapidly drained battery & videos as well. The screen started freezing up semi-often where the screen had to be turned off for a minute & then back on to work again & sometimes it had to be powered off completely to undo this. I wish i could speak better of this phone but nope, i can't. I would understand if these issues had started happening after 2 years of owning the device but after a few months, there is no excuse coming from someone who babied their phone & never dropped it. I hope this helps some people
Hi all,
Received my 1 iii yesterday, spent several hours setting it up, tweaking, testing, transferring files--and love it. Been an LG V-series user for the last six years, but with LG bowing out and having moved toward radiused corners, rounded glass, notches, etc. anyway--I'm very glad Sony is still out there making sane, non-compromised phones with basic features like microSD, no hole punch, and headphone jacks that are now treated as "niche" or "enthusiast".
BUT, unfortunately, having a very odd problem, and can't find any examples of anyone else having the issue... but it basically makes the phone unusable.
Literally any time the screen turns off--whether via pressing the power button, or via an inactiivty screen time out--the phone either shuts down, or restarts.
I've done a factory reset several times, tested it with fully restored apps/settings/personal data/etc., and totally un-restored, makes no difference--the issue always happens. So it's not the fault of any setting I altered, app I installed or disabled, etc.
I remember the first time I booted up the phone--but none of the factory reset times since then--that it said something about some setting being on to prevent battery wear from the phone being accidentally turned on during shipping. So maybe there's some bizarre setting somewhere that auto-shuts-down the phone when the screen turns off? Otherwise I'm at a total loss...
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Here is one of two reviews from Amazon about this phone:
"Got in the infinity reboot issue right out of the box...a $1200+ phone, very disappointed .
Got it today on the release. Then start setup and update. Not even until all set up finished, it restarted first time. Then again in just about 15mins. Overall been through restart 12 times. Try hard reset and all other methods, not helping. Return....."
So, unless you are the one who left this review...you are not alone! This type of stuff makes me so disappointed!
Sounds like the reviewer on Amazon was having a different problem. Mine stays on perfectly fine as long as one is interacting with it--only shuts down/restarts if the screen turns off.
Given the variety of software states in which the problem occurs--vlank setup, full set-up, safe mode--seems like a rare hardware issue. As long as it can be replaced with a correctly functioning unit quickly, it's still the phone I want...
If not, I guess I ride out my LG V50 till it dies, and then quit using smart phones...
Having to ship it in for warranty repair. Seems like almost certainly a hardware problem--sounds like I "won" the lemon lottery. A bummer, but not an indictment of the phone generally.
But I'm still really digging the phone--when it works. Did a video A/B with my LG V50, and while it didn't strike me as miles better--it definitely was when full-screen. Not having to look at rounded corners and a notch is worth a lot to me. With font and display set to smallest settings, *love* the look and roominess of the screen.
I agree with not wanting notches, or punch holes...this is why I am interested in this phone...PLUS I truly miss having a notification LED. However, so far the reviews from end users/owners...not the "pro" reviewers on YouTube..is leaning towards the negative! My last three phones have been from OnePlus. Currently on the 8T. I know many have started to slam OnePlus for their practice of late patches and higher prices...but I have not had even ONE problem with any of the OnePlus phones I've had! They just work. I've had the 6, 7-Pro, and now the 8T. There's nothing out there that even interests me any longer that doesn't overheat, or freeze, or have unnecessary dedicated assistant buttons??? Disgusted with them all. I just might have to take a harder look at Apple!!!!
Outside of what appears to be a truly random and uncommon hardware issue that's affecting mine per this thread--I actually really loved the 1 mk iii so far.
I haven't had overheating issues, camera seemed excellent, loved the hardware build quality, *LOVE* having a proper screen again (including no notches, aspect ratio, and tons of room w/ fonts and appearance set to smallest). I will never buy a phone that doesn't have microSD support, and access on this phone is awesome (no tool needed).
I wouldn't be too quick to write it off--especially not for the likes of Apple, who provide a hugely compromised, feature-removing, closed-ecosystem product at an inflated price for what you get.
Keep in mind--it's the internet, so you're going to far disproportionatly have people needing to discuss problems. Folks for whom nothing goes wrong--for any product--won't tend to seek out places like this to say so. So I wouldn't let a really small sample of issues unduly color your view...
Hi I have the exact same issue. Received mine on the 24th and transferred everything over from Oppo find X2 pro. Thought it was me at first when trying to wake but it rebooted. All fine until used in car QI base. After 20 minute drive picked it up and tried to wake only for the same thing to happen. Did this several times yesterday and this morning both on and off charge and while cool to touch. Very disappointing as expected more for something that cost nearly £1200! Like the phone a lot and prefer it over the Oppo but cannot find a way around this. A new 256k micro SD card also being used so have tried without this, without the EE sim and factory reset but still it happens. It's unusable as is so will have to be replaced, unless any suggestions?
Have had a few good Android phones from Huawei P20 pro, Mate 20X to current Oppo in recent times but never had an issue like this.
Having to swap back to the Oppo is very time consuming and exasperating!
Shame as this is a stunningly good phone.

Forgot to say there are others on here with similar issue, under random reboot thread.
After sending in for "repair" and receiving it back with no improvement (but "repaired"), Sony has finally agreed I'm due a replacement unit. Have shipped my first unit off, due to arrive to them next Wednesday. Will hopefully receive a properly-functioning replacement soon thereafter... Agree that, if the phone didn't have this bizarre issue, it would be great--very close to what I want in a phone (versus the myriad options out there that don't offer what I want, and insist on absurd design choices I detest).
So, we'll see. Certainly frustrating to have an issue like this on a phone that costs more than plenty of computers...
(To be clear, I had the issue literally every time, from the beginning, regardless of what I had/hadn't set up, installed, sim card/no sim card, micro SD/no micro SD, etc.).
I have Xperia™1 III but the phone is really stable for me, no random reboot. I have only heating issue. Xperia™ XZ2 Premium hasn't heat like this phone. My phone is Hong Kong device
Most likely not what caused your issue...but...it is NOT a good idea to allow any backup to install all your previous apps from an "old" phone to a new one. I know it can be a major pain and very time consuming to install everything from scratch when setting up a new phone...however...when you allow a backup to flow freely onto a new phone you are allowing all the junk to come back also! It's up to you, but I always install everything from scratch and it may not be related but...I have owned many, many phones and NEVER had all the problems that so many have all across the board. Am I just lucky, or is it because I have so much experience with computers and know how to set things up properly? YMMV

I think you have been lucky
Like you I have never had a problem and been in IT since the early 80's but this isn't something that's has been moved over. Sadly, the phone behaves the same wether out of the box or fully migrated. In the PC world I saw something similar with overheating and poorly cooled AMD processors in the 90's and am wondering if this is a heat related component batch issue?
Sony need to get a grip on this sharpish or they will be looking at refunds, which is never good.
The reboots are caused by the fingerprint reader. My new phone would bootloop while fast charging if my one and only configuration after a factory reset was setting a fingerprint.
DO NOT SEND IT IN FOR A WARRANTY REPAIR - - IT WILL GET WORSE
Get a refund.
First, Sony sent it to SBE with FedEx Ground, which currently takes about 2 weeks.
Second, SBE returned it bricked and voided my warranty. They said I flashed it but I had sent it in new and unmodified. I didn't even think they returned my own phone back because it had a UK/EU label and destroyed firmware. Sony Support would no longer help me because I was no longer a customer. SBE insisted I was a firmware flasher that deserved nothing. I ran EMMA and it showed my phone IMEI, locked bootloader, and stock firmware.
I finally found somebody on Sony Support who would give me an RMA. Maybe it was their mistake, but I wasted no time shipping it back. I'm doing a credit card charge reversal if I get any more crap from Sony/SBE.
I have spoken to Sony UK tech support and they have confirmed there is a reboot issue with some1iii's. Apparently, second line technical support have identified the issue (software) and there will be a revision released to cure this. When pressed, they couldn't give me a date for this and were a little vague. I was advised to return to my supplier for a refund.
Not good on a phone costing £1200 and surprised they haven't got their act together more quickly. They seem to be struggling getting phones shipped presently and my supplier has confirmed a 14 day wait if I want to re-order. I don't know if this is just poor advanced planning by Sony UK or if this is a Sony global problem trying to get hold of the components for manufacture.
Despite all the issues, this phone still ticks all the boxes for me so have decided to wait for the dust to settle!
Good to know there's some awareness now on Sony's part of this issue, and a plan yo resolve it via software (?). If the second unit I get has the same issue, I guess I'll wait a bit for that aoftware resolution--but deeply hoping I won't have the issue again.
I will say, I believe I tested not registering any fingerprints on at least one of the numerous factory resets I tried, and I believe the issue still occurred--had seen threads of similar issues stemming from the fingerprint reader on other manufacturer's phones, so tried to rule it out...
The original phone I got back from SBE wasn't bricked, it just wasn't in any way improved. Fortunately Sony didn't make any weird claims that I'd done anything wrong (I wouldn't know how to mess with "rooting" or whatever--no interest/need to). It was delivered to Sonyin San Diego by FedEx today--so hoping my replacement unit ships in the next day or two...

Agreed. With LG gone, I really want the Xperia 1 iii to pan out--only phone that has microSD, no notches/currves/radiused corners, a hogh-res screen, and a headphone jack. If I can't get one to work properly, I'll probably just buy another LG V50, second-hand.
Hello, I am one more carrier of an LG V60 although before it was Att, now it is no longer, it has identity problems.
My headache started a week ago when I found a guide on how to do crossflash on any device, I followed the steps but maybe I was wrong about something, I still don't know exactly what it was because I was following the steps until the computer (which didn't it's very slow) it got stuck and out of nowhere I erased all the vital partitions for the phone, when I saw that it didn't turn on I gave it up for dead and I had already stored it (with honors) in a broken cell phone drawer that I have (really, It was next to an HTC U Ultra, U11, an Iphone C and a box from a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 that was stolen from me).
After a few hours a person answered me who said that he had managed to update an Att V60 to Android 11 but it was a very difficult motorcycle, well, I told him a little about the situation and he offered to help me, I am really grateful for the help, well I had already given up my LG for dead, but even with all the help it did not look very good, I spent many hours trying to revive it, at the end of 3 or 4 days it gave a sign of life, I threw the text of LG V60 ThinQ ( although without 5G, which is strange since I had it before) and then it had some red letters indicating that they had not been able to find the necessary documents for the boot, I kept looking until I found the solution (don't ask me how I did it, literally everything came out by following and joining steps and guides as if they were a puzzle) and I finally managed to install a KDZ and update.
Home, Android 11, keyboard and everything like new, seriously, I was filled with joy to see that everything had gone well, configure everything, install the applications that it would occupy and other things, at this point when I turned on I saw the battery 64%, I thought that it was time to move my stuff back to this phone (I have a spare V35) but after a while I noticed strange things, the first one was how hot the phone was, I thought it was because it was being turned on for the first time , Another thing I noticed was that the fingerprint sensor did not read my fingerprint (it is currently repaired) and that good among one of the things that were evident is that I had lost my Imei, I had found a person with a guide that said how to recover it but it didn't work, my QFil doesn't read the qcn I don't understand why.
When I thought that those days of headache were over and all I had to do was enjoy an excellent phone, it was not like that.
Problem list:
- Does not have imei
- Battery drains in a matter of 5 hours or less
-Fast charge missing
-It's always hot
-The CPU has about 4 cores always working at 100% for no reason, even when idle with the screen off and entering the safe mode the phone does not stop being just as hot or with the same workload
I really want you to help me, it's the only phone I've ever had so powerful and so TOP that I wouldn't want to let it die, besides that, I'm in college and the expenses are getting higher and higher and I don't have money to buy another or buy a second-hand one, I also live in latam (I also say this in case some of my words are not consistent, I know a little English and I am also studying but I still do not feel capable of formulating a whole text in English)

Hello, I am one more carrier of an LG V60 although before it was Att, now it is no longer, it has identity problems.
My headache started a week ago when I found a guide on how to do crossflash on any device, I followed the steps but maybe I was wrong about something, I still don't know exactly what it was because I was following the steps until the computer (which didn't it's very slow) it got stuck and out of nowhere I erased all the vital partitions for the phone, when I saw that it didn't turn on I gave it up for dead and I had already stored it (with honors) in a broken cell phone drawer that I have (really, It was next to an HTC U Ultra, U11, an Iphone C and a box from a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 that was stolen from me).
After a few hours a person answered me who said that he had managed to update an Att V60 to Android 11 but it was a very difficult motorcycle, well, I told him a little about the situation and he offered to help me, I am really grateful for the help, well I had already given up my LG for dead, but even with all the help it did not look very good, I spent many hours trying to revive it, at the end of 3 or 4 days it gave a sign of life, I threw the text of LG V60 ThinQ ( although without 5G, which is strange since I had it before) and then it had some red letters indicating that they had not been able to find the necessary documents for the boot, I kept looking until I found the solution (don't ask me how I did it, literally everything came out by following and joining steps and guides as if they were a puzzle) and I finally managed to install a KDZ and update.
Home, Android 11, keyboard and everything like new, seriously, I was filled with joy to see that everything had gone well, configure everything, install the applications that it would occupy and other things, at this point when I turned on I saw the battery 64%, I thought that it was time to move my stuff back to this phone (I have a spare V35) but after a while I noticed strange things, the first one was how hot the phone was, I thought it was because it was being turned on for the first time , Another thing I noticed was that the fingerprint sensor did not read my fingerprint (it is currently repaired) and that good among one of the things that were evident is that I had lost my Imei, I had found a person with a guide that said how to recover it but it didn't work, my QFil doesn't read the qcn I don't understand why.
When I thought that those days of headache were over and all I had to do was enjoy an excellent phone, it was not like that.
Problem list:
- Does not have imei
- Battery drains in a matter of 5 hours or less
-Fast charge missing
-It's always hot
-The CPU has about 4 cores always working at 100% for no reason, even when idle with the screen off and entering the safe mode the phone does not stop being just as hot or with the same workload
I really want you to help me, it's the only phone I've ever had so powerful and so TOP that I wouldn't want to let it die, besides that, I'm in college and the expenses are getting higher and higher and I don't have money to buy another or buy a second-hand one, I also live in latam (I also say this in case some of my words are not consistent, I know a little English and I am also studying but I still do not feel capable of formulating a whole text in English)
If anyone knows what I can do or what I can try to do I will really appreciate it, I really love this phone and I didn't want it to end like this, believe me I'm really sorry I tried to update

I think also abl_a and abl_b
