LG better fixes these issues in the Marshmallow build, or I am saying godbye to LG...

Touchscreen Issue: This thing has been persistent from the very beginning. After struggling for months, it has been mostly fixed with the last update. But double tap to wake is still a 50/50 chance, most of the time it's 4 taps to wake.
WiFi Issue: I have come across may complaint across internet about wifi issue for LG G4, ppl suggested several solutions but none really worked. Wifi connection suddenly drops, and also takes a considerable amount of time when waking up from sleep. It gets very annoying when I am on a voip or hangout call.
No it's not my router or my phone. Because it's the same on my home and work network, where other devices just work fine. Also I don't have any of those issues on CM12.1 rom. CM is quite nice on LG G4 but having to be using it on CM is not an option, as I lose the camera.
Besides I didn't pay the money to purchase a flagship device to use it on a different rom.
So, that's it. LG better fixes it on the Marshmallow, otherwise Good Bye LG.
Update: The WiFi is much better since I uninstalled Xposed. I am guessing that some xposed module had something to do with it. Can anybody confirm?
No change in the double tap to unlock though. Funny thing is that it works perfectly with CM.

Sorry to hear you are still having issues with your device. My only issue is the double tap to wake/sleep, but its something that I can live with. I never had an issue with wifi on any network, work/home/neighbors, ever.
Have you tried any of the roms supplied by our great devs or are you on stock?

I tried stock rooted debloated, also stock-based xtreme rom. Always having these issues.

Hmm..... Thats weird, My G4 has been runing good since I first purchased it in september..... Guess I got lucky.

I feel the ops pain, because I've had the WiFi issues a few times, and the tap to wake is 50/50 at best. I'm also growing tired of waiting for updates from LG or Tmo.

The poor 5GHz wifi support kills me. Only device in the household that has that issue. Other than that, though, I've been pretty happy with the G4.

I purchased my G4 a month ago and don't have those issues. Double tap works fine and my phone uses 5g WiFi at home. I wish you luck op.

As far as the WiFi is concerned, I have the same problem. Using WiFI Analyzer, I can see that all available wireless networks near me drop to 0 every minute or so, and then start back up. My wife also has a G4, and her device does not do that. I'm wondering if there was either a bad batch of WiFi radio chips, or poor connections to the mainboard for a group of these.

I think the tap to wake issue is because of that other stupid "feature" that I'm sure not a single person uses.
You know the one where when the screen is off, you swipe down from the top of the screen and it shows the clock? My phone often mistakes my taps to wake as swipes and tries to activate that instead (I can tell because the notification led comes on when that is activated).
Is there any way to turn that thing off? It is completely useless. It would be one thing if it showed the notifications but no it just shows the clock

I agree with you on... that is probably the case. A completely useless feature, which also doesn't work half the time.

Not sure if you seen in the g4 dev section there is a flashable zip for a camera now. I'll never go back stock.

It's your phone... Those problems don't exist for everyone.

Did you just root, or are you using other apps that uses root access? Did you uninstall or delete any system app?
It's very unlikely that rooting would break the camera. Try unrooting.. Super Su has the option to unroot in its settings. If doesn't work you may have to do a factory reset.

I rooted and installed wtrp, the first app I opened was snapchat and I was not able to open video snaps or make my own. I thought it was the app being supervised and I didn't check the camera app recording. I later installed apps for root like xposed installer to obtain snapprefs, but the problem continued to appear. After the download of a few apps and mods for root. I downloaded instagram and I was still not able to record videos. Finally I opened the camera and it was the same problem. I unrooted my phone and the video recording is working. I will root again and only test the camera app after root and after each app and mod I added before. I did try the factory reset and no luck.

Since you already got twrp up and running, I can try MicroMod777's stock rooted debloated rom.

Never had problems with my H811 even installed different ROMs from LP to MM and back. Never had hardware issues.

My only problem with the h811 is the stupid gps not shutting off and killing the battery, fixed by app ops

I'm stock everything and my notifications have basically just stopped working out of no where. I've tried every solution there is on the web to fix it except a factory reset - is this what it comes down to? Do I have to factory reset every few months just to keep the phone running normally? That's not really ideal.

NFC wonky on stock marshmallow?

has anyone else noticed (or is there a known issue) with NFC being wonky in general on marshmallow? seems every so often it just stops working for me, and i have to cycle it off and back on in the settings to get it working - i haven't been able to pinpoint when this is happening, but it seems my bluetooth does the same thing when i reboot the phone so i'm wondering if maybe it's related to that. this is far more annoying though, because i have an automagic flow set up to turn bluetooth on when the phone boots...i can't set up a flow to do the same for NFC without being rooted, which i'm trying to avoid.

bump, this is still happening to me. i haven't upgraded to nougat yet, but just this afternoon i had to toggle NFC off and back on to use android pay (nothing happened the first time i tapped to pay, even though NFC was turned on). has anyone else seen this? it does seem to be limited to when the phone reboots...

Unless your device is faulty, i havn't seen that happen (havnt seen many posts on the forums either)
Try upgrading to the Latest OOS, it's pretty good now and NFC is working better (as in, i dont have to hold my phone as close) for android pay now.

[Q] Keeps requiring password/pin

Ever since the update to Oreo I've been constantly having this issue and it's extremely irritating and can't figure out how to stop it from happening. Basically at least once a day now, sometimes more than once it refuses to use the fingerprint scanner and wants me to enter my password or now my PIN since I switched to the less secure pin just to make it less of a pain everytime this happens and I just want it to go back to working properly so I can have the password again, does anyone know how to fix this issue? It's an unlocked note 8 and it's not rooted or anything, just a stock phone.

It's probably because you're phone has restarted and requires a pin after a restart before it'll use biometrics - It's a problem on Oreo, it's basically just a completely cr*p update that's broken so many things.
Samsung as usual, don't seem to give a stuff!

Nope, it's not a restart that's causing it, that's an entirely different message, especially since the phone's encrypted so the phone won't even start up on a reboot till the encryption password is entered. This is just a it randomly won't accept the fingerprint to unlock, I've turned the phone off then turned it right back on to unlock it and this has happened, 100% certain it had nothing to do with rebooting.
I've read some people saying they had an app that force locked the phone and that causes this and removing it fixed the problem, but I don't have any app that does that.

I have an unlocked note 8 too, I only use iris validation (finger print does not reliably work for me because of my eczema), the only time i have ever encountered this was when the phone went to lock screen while trying to access bio-metric validation (banking app, only ever happened once, i disabled fingerprint after due to unreliability relating to eczema as previously mentioned)

Maybe not the same issue but fingerprint unlock never works for me reliably. I get that message when my fingerprint can't be recognized. I have working hands so often my fingers get knicked, scratched, etc or even just wet causing my fingerprint not register. If I reregister fingerprint with out a perfect fingerprint, after my fingers heal, can't be recognized again. Happened on my Note 5 as well so I stopped using fingerprint to unlock.

Don't think that's the issue for me, I never have any issues with the fingerprint reader normally, it always works great when it actually lets me use it.

Annoying Pop-Up each time I use fingerprint to unlock my phone.

Hello,
As the title says, I get the pop-up attached to this post each time I use the fingerprint to unlock my device. It appeared one hour after I installed an app called light flow. It doesn't happen when I unlock it with my pin, it only happens with my fingerprint AND when my WiFi is off. I Did a virus scan and of course it came up with nothing. I need help cause it is annoying the hell out of me.
Thanks.

Ok so I came across this:

Which basically says that disabling WiFi+ will work until Huawei and Google fix the Google play services bug.
Thanks for nothing:highfive:

Question Broken FPS?

Hey,
so a few days ago, I've downloaded some app and ever since thing something strange happened - my WiFi wouldn't turn on.
Everything else did work - my fingerprint sensor among them.
So I've tried resetting my phone - didn't work.
I tried to flash xiaomi.eu rom - didn't work.
I tried to flash chinese rom - didn't work.
Eventually I was back to the original 12.0.9 global rom and it worked.
In all mentioned roms and this one too, my fingerprint wouldn't work anymore. If I tried to add fingerprint it would just fail with "could not add fingerprint, try again".
Once I added a a lock to my screen, in a short time(an hour at most), my phone would just get stuck, restart itself and then my WiFi stopped working again.
Once I removed the lock, my WiFi worked again after a few restarts.
I also noticed in CIT that I get "CALI test result: false" for the Fingerprint sensor check.
My guess is that if there's a lock, it tests security in some kind of cronjob and the FPS throws an exception and so the WiFi can't turn on.
Anyone has an idea what might work this out?
By the way, I have root with magisk and TWRP if it helps.
Thanks

UPDATE: it randomly rebooted and now the WiFi doesn't turn on again even though it has no screen lock..

Another update: so the first time it happened to me was after I installed power shade(and then every time I installed it). Now it happened after I installed notifix which also handle notifications. I did countless restarts and nothing helped. Then I uninstalled notifix, rebooted and WiFi is back to work.
Like magic. I really don't get why would it happen. . .
Any thoughts?

That's not software issue.
Seems like your WiFi chip burned.
This problem happen more frequently in China version of Mi 11.
Go return it back to the manufacturer and they will replace you a new one.
Because the excessive heat generation of Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 will cause the soldering failure at the bottom of the chip, thus losing the function of the WiFi chip.(or other random function. Like in yours case, it's fingerprint.)

Really? Even though wifi does work when I don't do certain things?

I am less certain now. If you can reproduce it or fix it with certain software install and uninstall. Will you use your Mi 11 to play some 3D games?
Because that's how my Mi 11 died. It sudden black screen when I played Honkai3rd, and phone's WiFi is gone after I turn it back on.

Well, as I wrote it suddenly wifi stopped working again. Why would it work only sometimes? Could it be something else that burned?
I mean, currently, the only constant here is that the fps never works..

I think that things happen because of poor contact just like you keep plugging/unplugging it.
Soc chips has many contacts. More random function dead is possible when there is multiple solder joint failure.

But wouldn't bluetooth fail as well if the chip was burnt?

So, after my wifi turned off once again, I searched for anything I can do to fix it.. Then I decided to copy my current MIUI persist.img to phone, then booted up TWRP & ran in "adb shell" using my PC: "dd if=/dev/block/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img". It fixed the WiFi back to work!
I wanted to flash xiaomi.eu instead of this lousy ROM, however I worry that it might not work and I'll have to reset my phone again..
I didn't get the FPS to work though..
EDIT:
Now I see I actually did the opposite & copied the persist partition from my phone to this file instead of doing the opposite... So everything is random and life is meaningless. JK, anyway I have no idea what is the pattern of the WiFi to work or not to work.
Meanwhile, I locked my screen again to check if it happens again.. Will update

Anyway, my phone turned off and won't turn on again.. Tried to charge it all night and nothing happens, tried to connect it to my PC, still nothing. Back to my Samsung S10..
Never again Xiaomi...
