Can you help me with my Bugs on my LG Watch R?

Hello all,
Today it's the third day with my LG Watch R. All in all I like it very much, although I think that the usability of the Samsung Gear 2 Neo (which I had before) is slightly better. After three days of using, I experienced some annoying bugs. Maybe it's just my fault, so maybe you are able to help me?
1. Sometimes the Watch doesn't receive any notifications. In this case my phone (Galaxy S 5) is blinking green because I received a Whatsapp message, but I got no notification on my watch...
2. Sometimes my watch doesn't vibrate, when I get a notification. (Although it worked before)
3. I don't understand, when the notification will be displayed in "fullscreen" and when it's just a small card on the display of the watch. I liked it very much on my Gear 2 Neo, that the notification are displayed in fullscreen while vibrating. Sometimes the LG Watch R does it similar, but the most of the time it only displays it as a card.
4. I can't turn the watch off, while charging it??
5. A Facer watchface stucks after several seconds. It only goes on, when I touch the monitor. Then it stucks again.
6. Is there a wear App, with which I'm able to read whatsapp messages at any time (and not only when I get a notification)?
7. Whatsapp again: Sometimes I see the pictures someone sent me in the background, sometimes not. I'm never able to see them as a real picture on the display at all.
I would be very happy, if someone is able to help me in some points. Maybe there are more people having these problems?
Many thanks in advance!!

Welcome to the Wear World
Same for me, my SW2 is more usefull than my LG-R and very very ..... better for all notifications. Notification are not the the highlight of wear.

Completely right Dersie, AWear has a very long way to go.

1. It only happens to me with WhatsApp ... not always though
2. Never happened .. maybe the vibration was weak and you've missed it.
3. The notification that will be pushed by the phone (like a message) will be first displayed full screen for few seconds, then it will become small for you to pick up when you want. The GNow cards that are informational only (stocks, weather) are generated by the GNow daemon in the watch itself (based on your GNow activity on the watch) and those will be displayed directly as small, informal cards.
4. The watch face is turning black by itself if the watch is not moving (I have no idea if it's related also to the horizontal position). This behaviour is independent of the charging status. So, leave it laying down on the table and you will see that it will go into a save power mode by itself (also when you put it to charge). Is taking few minutes to get into that state.
5.That is a purely Facer problem. Not watch's fault. I've bought Facer as well as WatchMaker and both had hiccups. Watchmaker is my option so far and is my daily driver for weeks, w/o any problem.
6. -------
7. Works for me but I saw it depends on the size of the picture (the large ones take more to be transferred via BT on the watch, for viewing).

1. The App needs to support it (or at least use a compatible notification type) - I also use a handful of apps that don't work (most notably those that have persistent notification to keep service alive and just change the content - this will not work with Wear)
2. For me it works flawlessly, but it's possible the watch "misses" a notification for some reason. Some apps also don't vibrate until you dismiss a previous notification from them.
3. Not sure what you mean, but card behaviour depends in part on the watchface you use - try Pujie or Watchmaker, it can be customized on both
4. Yes, this is impossible, the watch will always turn on. Maybe you can try charging it in recovery or bootloader, but that would burn the screen. You can put it in airplane mode while on charge, though. Also, if you have "Mute connected phone" selected, this will be disabled while on the charger, so no need to worry about missing something. Why would you want to do that, anyway?
5. This is normal, there are two modes for watchfaces - the "active" mode where everything is moving and shining, and "ambient" which is a lighter mode to save battery life - you want this mode to light up as few pixels as possible and there are no animations - you want this Avoid watch faces that have thick non-moving elements (like a center of a crown) - best is just a thin font with digital clock.
6&7. I don't use whatsapp, but this mostly depends on whatsapp and less on the watch.

Hi all,
First of all thank you very much for your answers so far!
1. 
 @ro_explorer: Yes, thats right, it's mostly whatsapp, but I think I experienced also this problem on e-mails
 @Zviratko: I see. But it's very confusing in the first days of using the watch
I uninstalled Mini Launcher for Wear yesterday und now I don't have any missed notifications. Maybe it has something to do with Mini Launcher and Lollipop?
2.
See point 1. After uninstalling it, the watch vibrates as it should.
3.
This is the point I still don't understand. For example on my Samsung Gear 2 a notification stay in fullscreen for 5 seconds and then the watch is shown again and I can see this notification in the notifications tab. It's very random on my LG Watch R, when the notification is being showed in full screen (not a "big" card, it was full screen, like swiping to this card).
But, also here, I never saw a fullscreen notification after uninstalling Mini Launcher?!
4. Now I understand this behavior! In important things like showing notifications the watch seems so stupid but in this case, the watch is very smart. Hurray! :laugh:
5. Okay, I will try watchmaker then, thanks! @ro_explorer
7. I see, that makes sense. Maybe I was just too fast for the watch. By the way: Are the pictures on your watch in good quality @ro_explorer ? Mine are looking like 50x50 pixels or something like this
It's very sad, that the wear system still needs so much to develop. I thought it is stable, like the Gear 2 was (c'mon, it's Samsung, normally they are not the kings in developing..). Hopefully it will change in the next months, when the iwatch arrives the stores. I love the design of the watch and don't want to miss it, but these bugs and problems are driving me crazy :crying:

Hi,
I have just added a "make notifications vibration stronger" feature in last SWApp Launcher Wear version:

overheat protection ?

ever since the weather is getting warm, I notice that every time I took my watch under the sun for some time, the watch would just shutdown. If I turn it on right after, it shutdown again. I have to put it under the shade for a while before turning it on ..
anybody else experience the same ?

Happens to be all of a sudden too just being out in the sun for about 5 mins. :/ never happened last summer.

Same here.
Went to LA last summer with the watch but had no shutdown issue.
It now shut down right after I turn it on in room temperature environment now

hmm ... I also didn't have this problem last summer .. everything about my watch is standard .. no custom rom or kernel .. the only modification is my own watchface that I made with beatifulwatch app, but I had this problem when I'm using standard watchface

contacted LG support asking about this. they suggested me to return my watch for repair, so I've send it back. I'll keep you guys updated.

Did anyone figure out the issue?
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app

Update: I used an app called System Info to track the battery temperature and low and behold the temperature sensor thinks that the watch is overheating even when the watch is cool to the touch.
For example it said the watch is 48.3 degrees Celsius which translates to 119 degrees Fahrenheit; mind you my a/c is blasting pure cold air!
The only fix appears to somehow disable the temperature sensor which will possibly cause the circuit board/motherboard to fry if the watch severely overheat or simply replace the board.
The big issue is finding a replacement board. I saw a video on YouTube in which a guy swapped in a LG Urbane board as a replacement.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app

so I received my unit back from repair .. unfortunately they don't tell me what's wrong with it .. what I can tell is that they replace the main body of my watch - I had some small usewear scratches on the bezel and now it's gone ...
I use it all day yesterday and all is fine, but it was not that hot yesterday also ..

Sick of samsung's bad displays

So my display after being replaced 2 times in 6 months started flickering. My phone is very hard to be turned on because of the green flickering.
I just want to upgrade to a S6,S7 Edge or non edge. i just want to know if they have the save problem with displays ? I want to have a phone at least 2 years, can you recommand me a phone like that ?
I was just considering switching to a iPhone even though i prefer android on phones ... o how are S6,S7s displays ? Samsung still have the same problems?

Samsung improved a lot on screen quality in S6 and after, so you should be okay

Wow that's amazing. Been using samsung s5 exynos version for the last 1yr. Never had that kind of problem till date. And it have the same display as snapdragon version. And on comparison I found that this is by far the best display out there when compared to other brands.
Maybe perhaps you might be having a faulty unit from the begining.

I have the same problem here with the display and it's not a software problem (same by original os 6 and same by cyanogenmod 14).
After the temperatures are under 10 C. i can't open my s5 with home button i must do it over the power button.

Using S5 for more than 28 months still I have not faced any issue. I just had to buy new charger apart from that not a single problem and yes I mess up with my phone so much but I still working and no display failure yet. And also I have dropped it many times, it still refuses to die.
You are just having a defective model or some internals of the phone are messed up. Because Samsh*t produces one of the best displays..

Its not a good sign. Try disabling your light sensor. Even then if you experience such a problem than it means that your flex cable that attaches the screen with the motherboard needs to be changed.

Hi,
Yes and expect the same problems with the following generations. It's an amoled screen thing. The green colour happen when there's a colour displayed on the screen for a very long time (for example, I have a green on my screen of the size of my keyboard).
I think a solution to this problem is to set the display to turn off after 30s (it saves battery too) and maybe, if you're using a custom keyboard, change the colour from time to time. Use the brightness of the screen to a lowest which would still be comfortable to you (and auto unticked).
This last tip alone is enough to prevent greening. My flickering happened after an incredible fall (it had a tempered glass so the screen was safe). The flickering showed green what it had in memory.
Samsung has a 2-year guarantee for its products so you shouldn't worry for that period of time. Problem not solved, replacement.
Best of luck

The funny thing is i already did "by mistake" all the tips you said and still have this. Never dropped the phone though. This problems seems very big though, i expected a burn in to be the biggest problem, but to have flickering at a level that i cant turn on the phone. I wanted recently to switch to a Nexus 6p, but knowing that it uses Amoled too, its a bad ideea. So the only "solution" is to switch to IPS screens? (btw i want a phone that holds on for at least 3 years)

In my research thus far, the AMOLED screen technology is to blame. When the display circuits get old or damaged, they don't sustain current at low power settings. In LED screens, a back light controls brightness, but AMOLED screens send current to each pixel for brightness control. If the circuit is damaged, or any corrosion has built up inside, this could attenuate the current below the point required to sustain light flow. I see this problem with some LED and CFL lights on motion sensor switches. Just enough current goes through the motion sensor to keep it's circuits active, and that current causes a flicker in the light.
With the screen though, since the problem is only resolved when you increase the brightness just a bit above minimum, it seems anything that lowers the display power (auto brightness for example) will cause it to flicker if this setting gets too low. I also noticed that before the screen locks on timer, it dims to low power for a few seconds and flickers as a result. There are apps that attempt to resolve this by putting a translucent black screen over your desktop and apps. This keeps the power up on the pixels but adds a black overlay, kind of like a screen filter. You can adjust the darkness if you need it to save your eyes when reading in the dark but it doesn't help save power any. They also require a rooted device, which could void warranties. The reason for this I believe is because apps are supposed to operate in a way they don't intrude on each other, and a filter that lays over your screen does in fact alter the output of your display rendering. With the added security concerns of these apps possibly collecting screen shots and sending them to another site, I would avoid this. Best to use a physical screen overlay you can put on or remove as needed as long as it doesn't interfere with your touch screen options.
Ultimately, these devices were meant for replacement every 2 to 3 years so if you're like me and you like to make your investment last, best thing to do is apply any work around you can come up with. A repair shop may be able to wipe the circuit boards down with a solution that clears away corrosion, but it won't repair any weakened pixels. I'm still using a Samsung S5 G900F
- And i finally got this fixed. it sounds like the reason for this is that since the latest update your phone cannot decide whether to use hardware or software back light settings. I managed to make the problem go away by doing this:
Go to settings >> system >> About device.
Find "Build number" and click 6 times fast on it.
You will then get the message saying: "You are now a developer"
and then go back to Settings >> system >> Now you will see the "Developer Options"
Now go to Developer options >> Drawing Section or Rendering Section >> Find "Turn off hardware overlays" or "disable hardware overlays" >> This will force the phone to always use GPU for screen adjustments. no more flickering.
but If I turn the brightness ALL the way down, it still flickers like crazy, however, if that's the only time it'll do it, I consider that a win.

Samsung Note 9 - Display Discoloration & Overheating

Who else are facing the same problem ?
1)Initially, when I unlock phone by pressing power button the display was changed to dim colour(mostly yellowish) and with horizontal lines displayed when the brightness is below 50%. After tried with multiple times pressing on power button the display came back to normal.
2) Next stage, it's not solved with power button. I have to keep my phone aside for some time to get back to normal display. It's been 15 to 20 min then.
3) Now, I would get normal display only in morning. Else, I need to keep my phone idle without touching for at least 4 to 5 hours. I've also changed screen power off time from 30 Sec to 10 Minutes. So that my screen wont turn off and I can keep the normal display. If I forgot to use or kept aside more than 10 min then my screen would go off and display would gone again and irritation starts with that discoloration problem..
4) If display changes to yellowish to reduce the horizontal lines problem I need to increase the brightness to 80 or 85% but this causing my phone with another problem "heating issue"
Samsung haven't responded on this issue yet, how could we bring up the issue and get the proper resolution from Samsung.

This happened after last March update installation?
What note 9 do you have?

Probably not a hardware fault if it happened after recent software update.
A number of note9 affected although samsung seems to disagree at the moment.

Hello,
I also have a problem with the display after waking up with the POWER button. There are tinted colors distorted and some stripes like dim lines and slow refreshing. Everything started after updating to Android 10. In fact, when the display lights up incorrectly, it starts to heat up from the bottom. Putting the smartphone aside for a moment or cooling down causes the display to work correctly.
Workaround? I turned on Active Display and first knock to activate it, then the display lights up correctly and then I unlock the screen and use normally. It is known that battery consumption increases. Of course mine is Exynos.

hi guys,, i remember a similar experience sometime back.. try this. if u have turn on the proximity sensor i mean the advance feature where the phone screen doesn't turn on while in pocket , switch it off and restart the phone and see if the problem still exist.

i am having same issue
is anybody on xda come to rescue our issue?? friends need urgent help out ., if the solution is to reinstall the firmware kindly tell how to ?? while phone is just giving odd lines and not responding to touch even ??

whats the firmware version u are having now and phone model?

Try wiping the cache partition in Recovery Mode. If that doesn't work then back up your device and manually reinstall the OS back onto your device.

Im having the exact problem. I flash LineageOS and it worked by max brightness then back to auto. I installed brightness widget to max brightness and back to auto everytime I turn on screen.
This issue is popular after March update. I tried everythings you mentioned above, reset, flash new firmware, even April update, wipe cached, flash cooked rom, heat screen, turn off features, disable gpu overlay, etc... Samsung Vietnam guaranteed can fix with new screen but I'm out of warranty.

I dont have any issues us unlocked snapdragon xaa model on latest android 10 version.

Can we confirmed that a screen replacement fixes the display problem or is it still a software issue

No one knows what is the exact cause here, its noticed in many devices right after this March update but few are noticed months before. But, now the problem came to many users at same time. So its been brought up by many tech blogs, websites.

I'm having the exynos version too but with ITV (Italy) firmware ...never had this problem and now I'm on April's version after March's version.
This looks a little bit like what happened to the S5 years ago when after 1 and a half/ 2 and a half year's the screan began flickering, having green spots or lines, randomly didn't go on with low luminance settings since it completely died....a lot of people said on forum's that it was the screen and a replacement solves, but when it happened to me years ago the Samsung assistance center told me that it was another component (never told me what it was) causing the issue and once they changed it , they solved the problem.
So, after my experience with the S5, don't know what to think now for what is happening to some guys even if I think that this issue might depend with something happening after marchs update because for the too many people having it after the update, coincidences are not credible.

Yes, many people were facing this problem and how many times we have contacted the Samsung they are behaving like they just hearing the issue for the first time. Just created and posted the link in Members app and 67 members joined so far. Everyone having the display problem out of nowhere. All of them on out of warranty except one or two. Still members app floating with the display problem messages.
Display issue got noticed in S20 too but they immediately released the security patch and solved it. Don't know why they were silent on Note 9.

Question Burn in Display in 6 days

Hello how are you ?
I tell you that I have the OnePlus Ace (converted to 10R) for about 6 days and since yesterday Wednesday after updating I began to notice that the clock in always on display was marked on the display of the phone, the same happens to me with other applications like Facebook or Instagram and not to mention the notification bar.
The strange thing is that after having a good time it goes away.
What dou you recommend? Purchase was by Aliexpress

It is never a good idea to use Always On with oled displays. These type of screens are prone to that, of course not in 6 days, but, letting it all day on, specially with a display that suffers with burn in, sooner or later this will happen.
In your case, you could try the refund or return policy from aliexpress, either way I'm pretty sure you will lose money.

If the text doesn't move vertically every dozen or so seconds in AOn mode, keep it disabled (check after each OTA/custom ROM). In case you got a burn-in while the phone does proper moving of the AOn text, that's definitely a display hardware defect.
