Anyone else having an issue with the speaker phone going dead during calls? I have this happen all the time about 5 minutes into a call. Turning the speaker off and then back on helps but it keeps happening.
There's another thread rife with complaints about this issue, and it seems to be affecting all U.S. (at least) carriers more or less equally.
I suspect it's an LG software issue rather than a hardware one, but I obviously have no way of knowing.
I only vaguely recall that my old phone, the LG V30+, had a similar issue that was ultimately fixed via software.
Out of curiosity, have you tried using a different default phone/dialer app?
I use Google's Phone app, which should be available on the Google Play Store, if it's not already pre-installed on your device.
Edit: Here's the other thread.

I am experiencing the same thing. I currently on my second device and still has the same problem. It only happens when you turn on the speakerphone.

I have the same issue.....noticed the speaker goes out when the screen times out. It comes back when you quickly turn speakerphone off/on

Yeah, I reached out to LG and they said they will send an OTA update that fixes it.
Tmobile version here.

lighting rom, but i believe this issue was said to have started before, however i could be wrong!
just grabbed my next door neighbour and did 2 way test, i walked around the block on his 7 year phone and he sounded muffled on mine - went back to my phone and he was having trouble making me out but sound clear to me - bollocks!
guess i better flash stock back again.

Multiple threads claim this happens. Seems to just be a defect with no solution. Search around.

Better if you change your rom and test it again...

This is exactly what happens to me!!!
I suddenly start sounding muffled...
when my wife goes out of town...
and I go on a drinking rampage.
But then she comes back, and everything is back to normal.
Sorry OP, for makign a joke here. Yeah like others said, try factory reset and then restore factory firmware.
Some ppl claim that this happens when u r using a case cover blocking the mic for noise reduction. Try using it without and see if this solves the problem!!
Hope this helps!!

With the phone itself. It seems to be a certain location your mouth is to the mic just causes muffled sound. And the noise cancellation seems to be part of the issue, doesn't work correctly. So turning it off sometimes helps.
well i called O2, and they are swapping me a brand new one tomorrow, as i have had one month!, ordered on 25th May and called yesterday being 25th June.
they are bring me one to my house - that is service!
i did try flashing stock rom, but no difference, tested my mates and his sounds fine, pretty sure there is an issue. oh well a new one will do!
So i had this problem myself and also read few other members posting about this.
The speaker phone automatically turns on when making a call and that is annoying.
it seems like chrome might be the reason for this is CHROME!!!! the latest update to Chrome seems to fix it, hit the update button now! - http://www.androidcentral.com/chrome-update-fixes-audio-bug
But for those who are using an HTC One, you'll need to download this new version right away, as it fixes a pretty annoying audio bug that would cause the phone to launch straight into speakerphone mode when placing a call — damned near deafening, thanks to that Boomsound thing blasting from the front-facing speakers. Not everyone saw this bug — but for those of us who did, this is a most welcome fix.

There's only been one update since the phone came out, and that was in April.
Went out to get the mail, came back and I noticed a download icon on my phone, turns out its in the middle of an update. File size is 477.3mb. I already have the update from April, so Im not sure what this'll be. Guess I'll know within the hour, as its downloading quite slowly.

I just finished downloading it myself. It's at updating now... (1/2) stage right now. I hope they fix all the issues and complains people had, or at least most of them.
It went from 11a to 12b. I do not notice any differences yet, but I didnt experience issues prior to the update either.
Hopefully this fixed my Bluetooth issues. I installed it and will try it when I leave work to see if my streaming issue goes away (static/crackle).

I just saw the update coming down, it's downloading atm.
Unfortunately it looks like it was just security updates. My Bluetooth issue is still present.

I hope it fixes the only issue I have. Intermittent battery drain when idle.

And....It doesn't.
The latest update bricked my phone this morning. It got stuck on the LG screen, then occasionally flashing the "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and my not work properly." I couldn't even factory reset it. Took it to a Verizon store and they couldn't do anything either. At least they will FedEx me another phone overnight.

I'm not seeing any heavy-duty battery drain. Possible you have a rouge app?

I doubt it. The only thing showing serious battery drain is "Phone Idle", and I have the same exact apps on 2 other devices without a problem.
I just got 12b update today.

For me, this update broke the BLuetooth transmission of audio track data to my car stereo head unit. I post in the general G6 forum earlier:
'I have a new G6 and a new problem with Play Music. When connected via Bluetooth to my 2016 Subaru Outback head unit, Play Music track info does not appear on the head unit display. My previous LG G5 had no problem doing this consistently. Other apps like Pocket Casts displays track info, no problem. I reviewed the G6 supported Bluetooth profiles and they are compatible with the Subie head unit.
This is maddening! Has anyone else experienced this and then found a solution?
cheers,
mordango
UPDATE: I had this phone replaced with fresh G6. It was still on the 11a Verizon software version. Connected it to the car head unit via Bluetooth, played Google Play Music, got all the info on the head unit as it was supposed to do. Updated to 12b software version, no more music information displayed on the head unit. So, the 12b update breaks this for Play Music. Some other audio apps still display info but Play Music and Soundcloud are broken."
Hi, has anyone had any popping, crackling, or skipping when listening to music? I get it about twice to 3 times per hour when listening to spotify or local music. There was one time in particular where i was listening to music, when opening the recents menu and opening a recent app caused a serious crackling distortion.
Should I return my phone?
Side note: have tried safe mode. Crackling still occurs. Have tried repeating the same file. Crackilng does not occur at the same time.
Second side note: on version 119. Phillipines has no updates beyond that.
Mine does it too. This phone has more bugs than a bush tucker trial!
Haha. Yeah, it does. I've also have had apps randomly open sometimes and another music player play for a few seconds when I press play on Spotify, then return to spotify. I'm planing to try and have my handset exchanged tomorrow at the store. Hopefully they will.
I do believe this phone has really great potential, if only it wasn't so buggy.
Had too sometimes.
However, I think problem is Oreo, not the phone!
I want to believe it's oreo, since everything else on my phone works great (minus the hiccups mentioned above). No wifi or reception issues. Not even sure I want to get a replacement and do a lottery again.
so glad to see its not just me. phone is terribly buggy. settings turning on and off. sometimes after being on the phone for like 5 mins, the phone locks itself. sometimes without me even touching the phone eg when im watching youtube with it propped up on my desk. has anyone who exchanged their phone actually received one that doesnt have these issues though?
whats up with the blue light remaining on in settings when you turn a setting off? UI nightmare
Hmm. This makes me think we should run a poll so we can identify the common issues everyone is having to rule out hardware issues.

A lot has to be with Oreo as these issues don't exist in other Huawei phones. Also i wonder if some of these unreleased roms that folks are using have bugs in it compared to the official roms received via OTA.

Hi everyone,
Got my Motorola One 4 months ago in Saturn.de. Android 9.0 on board with March updates.
One month ago my speaker had stopped work. I'm not able to hear music/alarm/call.
But in headphones everything works.
I noticed some strange behavior:
If I start playing music, then go to Sound Settings and try to change call sound level - for few seconds I hear music from speaker.
How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Never heard of that problem before. At least not on Moto one.
But it sounds like it's software related since the speaker obviously works when you change call sound level.
Maybe do a backup of important stuff and try a factory reset.

Thank you for response.
Tried several times full factory reset.
Decide to return it back to the store for repairing.
