This morning I woke up and my phone was working fine. I had 2 updates in the market and I hit update all. After that my phone rebooted and it does the Verizon LTE animation and the LG splash screen but it goes into a black screen. While it's in the black screen the phone vibrates and the battery heats up. I tried going into recovery but it did nothing.
Pull the battery fo a few and wait before a reboot?

so you said you went in to recovery and it did nothing? So you couldn't even get recovery to load? and are you stock or rooted with clockworkmod recovery?
I can't even get it into recovery. I hold the volume keys and power buttons and it just does the boot up then black screens.

Just hold down the volume down button, then hold down the power button also. Continue to hold both through the lg splash, then it should be into recovery.

I had the same thing happen to mine 20 days after I got it. I had to have it replaced under the warranty, which means they had to ship it next day air.
I've heard of a few other people with the same problem.
Finally able to get into recovery and wipe data but now phone starts up and its black screen with the status bar across the top. It's acting like it has no home launcher.
Unfortunately you are going to have to get a replacement from VZW. If you are within the 14 day period you can just swap it at the store. otherwise you have to go through the Warranty folks and make sure you have them ship it to you overnight.

Do you have Clockwork installed?
If so, this is an easy fix.
If not, well, it's a little tougher.
The gist of what's happening is easy to find by connecting your phone while it's booting to USB and running "adb logcat" on your desktop.
That will give you the boot logs and the exact reason for what's happening.
If you're running my decrapified ROM, you may want to switch back to the stock ROM. Go to my stock NANDROID thread, download that, put it in the right folder on your SD card, then boot into clockwork and follow the instructions in the stock nandroid thread.
Make sure you clear data also!
No need to call verizon
I tried connecting the phone to the pc and got nothing. computer couldn't even detect it. I called verizon and got the phone swapped under the warranty. First thing I'm doing when I get the phone is putting the recovery on it. Would have made this process much easier.

Yep, having ADB access is a surefire way to get your phone up and running again.
But, just for future reference, LG has a failsafe firmware updater that will always work, no matter what state the phone is in.
It's not super easy to set up, but it will fix a phone no matter how broken the software may be.
There's a thread in the Dev subforum with the files and instructions, but the gist is that it's accessed by holding VOLUP+POWER with usb plugged in, then plugging in the battery.
It's successfully recovered 3 phones so far.
It may not be the easiest way to get the phone back, but it has a 100% success rate
I'm having no luck with my new replacement I got from vzw. I've tried rooting it with S1C using both exploits, I've tried rootwiki's manual method and none of them work for me. Anyone got any tips?

Well... you could always try my "toggle ADB" trick.
Turn usb debugging on, then back off, then on again.
Then follow the rest of the rooting instructions, but skip the whole exploit section.
(Basically, remount /system as rw, push su, chmod su, and push superuser, and install busybox)
Ironically, the phone doesn't actually NEED any exploits at all-- it's pretty unlocked to begin with!
I get this "sprint default configuration" ready to install crap every so often. If I load it it changes all my home screens and stuff back to sprints default. How do I stop this from trying to load/download?

Don't know yet I think. I bet if you are rooted you could probably find the apk in system and delete it. I've just been hitting home and not hitting okay when prompted. It hasn't messed up my settings yet.
I removed the app in /system called SprintID.apk and it went away.

I'm not rooted. Hadn't really checked out development yet. Is there an easy root for it? I don't want to disable future ota's, so is it hard to go back stock after rooting and removing sprintID?
Sent from my HTC ONE!
I've removed sprint ID and everything else sprint and I still get it. it pops up every time I reboot my phone and reinstalls everything I deleted.
same issue here. For now I'm just using Go Launcher EX in case Sprint ID decides to wipe my sense screen again.
Let it install

I'm a Sprint Product Ambassador supporting the launch of the One.
That is a necessary part of the provisioning process for the One. If it appears let it install once and it should not do it again.

I did let it install a couple times. When I try to change my screens back how I like them it'll prompt to install again. I just force stopped sprint id. Haven't rebooted yet to see if it happens again.

Config prompt and phone volume
The sprint config message keeps coming to me. Force stopping the ID app didn't work. But, I had to factory reset the phone today per HTC because the phone is always at a loud volume, like on the speaker. Nothing we did fixed it, I thot.
So, the factory reset was done and it fixed the phone problem.. After spending a few hours twiaking the phone to get my screens back in shape, the sprint config message started to appear and now the volume problome is backon my HTC One.

Sadly mine appears to be installing it multiple times as well. Since getting my phone 36 hours ago I've let it run twice and avoided running it (via the home button) 4 times.
This seems a bit ridiculous, any idea when we can expect an fix/patch to stop this from re-occurring? I haven't rooted or modified my phone in any way (other than basic application installation) yet.
sprint id
On my HTC One, I went into apps, sprint ID and clicked on disable. My problems was solved. I had another issue with no volume control for phone calls...it was way too loud, sounded like on speaker.
Went into settings, phone and found the hearing aid assist was on. Unclicked it and problem solved.
Funny, spent three hours on the phone with two different HTC techs and neither of them could figure out the solutions....

Nope, updated both and rebooted. Still same thing. Keeps popping up until I force stop sprint Id. Then is goes away until I reboot.

wipe the cache partition from recovery then update profile. if that fails, then you'll probably have to factory reset, then go to settings/activate this device/reboot.
I've got an unbranded HTC One and I've performed the OTA update from a few weeks ago. I'm not saying the update is the cause, just that I'm on the latest ROM. The phone is also not rooted.
I've noticed that it's getting slower and slower when pressing the On button before the keypad appears and also longer for the keyboard to appear and then it takes longer for the keys I've pressed to register and then another few seconds for the application icons to appear.
All in all, it takes about 15 seconds to turn on, enter my 4 number pin and for the icons to finally appear. Normally this whole process takes me 2 seconds. I know an extra 13 seconds doesn't sound a lot but when you're trying to get to your camera or to take someone's contact details, it feels like forever.
Restarting the phone fixes the issue but it eventually slows back down again. I don't want to have to restart my phone every 3 days so this isn't really a viable solution.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
If not then I can only assume it must be software I've since installed but I'm very careful with what I install (no games, just work related apps like Astrid and things like WhatsApp).
15 seconds!!!??? That's looooonnnnnggggg on anyone's book using any phone!
My One is instantly turned on when the power button is pressed and sometimes the password keypad took a bit longer to appear because I use Swype and it's still a bit laggy compared to stock keyboard, but I am talking about between instant and half a second delay, not even one second.
Yours definitely got some issue, either hardware or software I don't know,likely to be software if you say a restart solves it. What keyboard app you are using? It could be that...

Everything I'm using is stock.
I've just timed it again - it's 15 seconds if I've accessed the phone recently otherwise it's closer to 18 seconds.
It feels a long time to me and when I say it out loud "18 seconds" it sounds pretty insignificant but I assure you, it's very, very irritating.
How many weeks uptime do you have on your phone?
I've removed almost all my apps now so we'll see if it starts slowing down again.

Unlock the bootloader, root the phone, and install a custom rom. That's what you should be on XDA for anyways. You're problems will then be gone.

Go read Gunny's response on losing your warranty. The warranty loss claim is complete bs. It states you MAY lose your warranty. I've returned so many phones for warranty that were rooted, bootloader unlocked, and even bricked with a different devices software on it and I never had any problems.

Fair enough but people dont need to have to root and unlock bootloaders and do this and that to get a good experience. People just want to get a phone out of the box and use it. and HTC have done a good job at that. And there are too many noobs that just dig themselves a big hole after doing down the unlock path
back on topic: its probably an app thats causing huge lag on your device. check your running apps in settings

That happened to me the first few times I booted up.
How many times have you booted up your phone?
How long as it been since you activated it?
I rebooted several times since I started setting the activation screen and it but reboot itself each time. Since 2 days ago I installed a custom Rom and the problem has not happened since.

I got home with my replacement phone, logged into my Samsung Account and restored my backup. Just downloaded and installed the latest update, I was charging via USB and everything was going fine. Started signing back into all of my accounts, the phone was extremely hot and it rebooted. After the reboot it was stuck on the T-Mobile screen and kept vibrating every few seconds. I booted into recovery and cleared the cache, rebooted and still stuck. Booted back to recovery and did a FDR, rebooted with it plugged into usb, restored from the cloud again and this time barely warm. Got it all setup again with no problem, just hoping this was a one time event as I was about to take it back and get something different.
Try turning off bluetooth. My device failed to establish connection with a device and kept vibrating like crazy until I turned it off.

Wasn't on, just wifi. Working great now.
I forgot my phone was still updating apps via smart-switch and took the N7 icon update. When it rebooted I was getting this screen where I couldn't do anything but get to the camera via home double tap, pull down the notification bar, and hold the power button to get to the power off/restart screen.
After 2 reboots I just left it alone for a bit so the apps could install/update. Rebooted it again and it was running back to normal. Pretty weird.
Was probably busy restoring stuff in the background. My phones get hot and slow during a new setup after flash since it has to download and reinstall all those apps and indexing. All those pushes the cpu

That's the screen I got before it went to the T-Mobile screen and just started vibrating. I had already done the update and updated all my apps, was just signing into one of the apps and it started. Ran good after the FDR and haven't had any issues the rest of the evening or this morning.

Mine has begun to reboot 3-4 times in a row when charging. It also got hot once but was a few days after restoring so no problems with it being too busy restoring apps. I really don't want to set it up all over again but I guess I am about to have to in order to try to resolve this.
I'm not sure what is going on with the new devices mine appears to be overheating, I took off my case and saw a ring around where the battery is it was two different shades of Black. Sending back ASAP

You should be able to only choose messages. I know when doing the smart switch myself it gives me a list of options.
