    My LG V10 phone has been replaced now 7 or 8 times in the last year through Verizon wireless. Every phone had the same issue. The charging plug would not stay in the phone, it would when I first got the phones on some then after a week would just fall out or quit charging. One phone that was returned to me had a WiFi connection issue, was told it was the internal antenna. Verizon tells me there are 38 phones in Stock. I will have to go through all 38 till they replace my phone with a different brand. Today my phone has been replaced because it would no longer turn on. Totally dead. Stay away from anything LG!!! OR AT LEAST THE V10 CELL PHONE!

    Life's Good has done a No Good job in handling an LG manufacturing problem that's affected thousands of people. Here is what happened to me. Sounds like the same story as a bunch of others: After reading all the reviews it looks like I am just another victim of the same BS. 1st bootloop started in January right after the warranty expired so I factory reset and lost all the contacts. I understand things happen so it really wasn't a big deal. On 3/10 the phone shut down and would go through the same process. After researching how to troubleshoot I noticed thousands of reviews discussing the bootloop problems with the G4 and the V10.

    I contacted them through live chat and discussed the problem. I mentioned that it appears that I've been hit with the common bootloop problem and I think LG should repair a manufacturing issue. I also mentioned that I have a small crack on the screen that doesn't bother me and I don't want it replaced. I asked her if that was going to be an issue and her response was it shouldn't be. 11 days later I get a response from LG that due to physical damage I would have to pay $150 to have it fixed. Needless to say I flipped out and called them but Customer Service gives a scripted response. Asked to speak to a Supervisor and was told to call back tomorrow. I told him to ship my phone back because I'm not investing 1 penny into an awfully manufactured device. Full disclosure. I did love the phone before all of this.

    I started having problems with my LG4 about 6 months ago and was told by My Sprint dealer that it was caused from a bad charger. Continued to have problems and it finally totally quit last weekend. When I took it back to Sprint they would upgrade me but I still have to pay off $200 for the LG plus my upgrade. Being 71 with a disabled husband I have to have a phone. What are my options? After reading all the reviews I'm glad I didn't try to get it repaired. And it seems all the carriers know about all the problems, don't notify their customers they might be stranded without their phones, and still stick them with the bill.

    It is one of those things you put up with, until it finally damages something crucial to your livelihood and sanity. The first casualty, after an update was the accessibility of the browser. (Google for me.) Before, I could minimize the browser, but after an update suddenly I could not do so. There was no help from the internet. I figured it out myself. Now I had to swipe, make it a dual window and delete it. Annoying, but I can live with it. The second casualty was the mic icon which I used extensively for using the browser hands free and asking for directions. (One of the selling points in getting the phone in the first place.) An update came and, wallah, suddenly the icon vanishes from my home page AND from the browser.

    I try different things. Settings tells me that it is on and working. In fact FROM settings I can access it, but no way to get it back on the front page OR my browser. That is a serious loss of functionality. Again, internet, no help. Now I have to type in everything, THEN when I am getting directions the mic magically appears, after the fact. This annoyed me greatly but I lived with it. However, this Monday arrived the update that not only broke this camel's back, but made me scream profanities into an uncaring ceiling (standing in for the universe). Most know; to transfer files (photo and video for me) from an LG phone, the best way is to use a USB cable. This had worked fine since I got the phone (two years ago?) Now, suddenly, after an update my desktop doesn't recognize the phone. Again, internet totally useless.

    I try different things. Finally under some secret lair deep in the OS I see that, in fact, the desktop does see it, but just doesn't recognize the phone. This is getting long so I will skip the numerous things I tried: installing the suddenly missing drivers, transferring to Google Drive, (looked like garbage!) etc... Of course, I called Customer service. When they were clueless, admitting it was an update issue that could not be resolved, I asked to talk to a supervisor and after 10 minutes on hold with the same message about how much "we appreciate your business", the supervisor came on and was utterly useless.

    Like many of the disgruntled customers here, their only options were for me to send the phone in "for repairs." (Um... yeah, so you they could find non-existing water damage, NO THANK YOU!) or to send me a refurbished phone. (Yeah, so you could leave me dangling for months just to send me a garbage replacement, um...No thank you! And please sod off you stupid git!)

    One of the main reasons I have THIS phone was the camera. I have made MANY videos (300 and counting on Youtube) with various cameras over the year. When I saw how good this camera was, I started doing videos ONLY with the cell phone. (Yeah, crazy, but true.) I now have 80 video bits (yup, all in the course of a weekend!) stuck in my camera. I can't film anymore because I don't have the space. I can't go back to an earlier version of the OS before the update, Google Drive sucks like an Event Horizon, and I am literally out of options. I am not happy. I will NEVER buy another product from LG. EVER.

    Bought an LG G4 outright mid 2015. Worked fine for 18 months. With no abuse whatsoever, it stopped booting up. Thought the best place to get it fixed would be LG. They offered to refurbish it for $115. I told them to go ahead. Three weeks later, and after 3 calls asking for a status, it arrived with the leather back missing and completely dead. At least when I sent it to them, it would try to boot and then fail. Now it doesn't even light up at all. I checked my bank account, and so far they haven't charged me, but I'm concerned they still might. This phone was touted as one of the best phones available in 2015. I would definitely agree to a lawsuit against LG. Bad phone. Bad service. No offer to replace. No offer to compensate monetarily.

    Google recently pushed an OTA update to my LG Nexus 5X phone and caused it to enter a bootloop. Both Google and LG blame each other and no one will take accountability for a problem which is widespread. Type in Google 5x into google and the top search terms are on this issue. Seems like it's more than just a few users that both companies claim are impacted. Look forward to a class action lawsuit, so they take this issue seriously.

    My LG phone G4 has a power looping problem or something like that. When I bought it it broke down about a month after I had it. It broke down again 14 months later. I didn't know that their warranty was extended so by the time I called I was 10 days out of warranty with the same problem. They were supposed to fix the first time. I wouldn't own another LG phone again. Their service people don't try to help you. They won't let you speak to the supervisor. They tell you that the supervisor is going to tell you that it's out of warranty. They said I could send it to him and then they would fix it, charge me and send it back. Why I think this phone should have been recalled. Sickening how big companies step on little people.

    Late January my LG G3 started turning off randomly and the screen started fading to black. After contacting LG I sent it in to repair through their services. I received a shipping update stating that it had be received at the repair centre January 27th. LG promised a 7-10 business day wait for repair and return. After waiting 10 days I contacted LG and was given a generic response that the phone is under inspection, again they asked for another 7-10 business days.

    Another 10 days pass and I have still received no updates, no phone, nothing. After expressing my annoyance with this process and having to pay a phone bill this whole time with no phone LG emailed me back saying they had "escalated the case to their manager" and it would take 4-5 business days for the phone to be repaired and returned. After another week passed I contacted them again, they replied that the phone had water damage and I needed to pay 150$.

    Now, if this information had been provided initially that would have been fine. However, after all this wasted time I was hoping to speak to a manager about their repair service and possible compensation for the wasted time. After finding a way to call them through my laptop on Google Hangouts I began the process of calling their support and basically being told to call back another day. LG will tell you their supervisors are busy to avoid having to deal with you, I was told that I would be able to speak with a manager one day, then the next day I was told they had no managers and that only supervisors would talk to me.

    In the end they have told me they would approve the repair and I would have to wait for it even longer. It's now been well over a month and still waiting, repair was approved yesterday. Overall, there is a complete lack of accountability and respect for customers within LG. One of the most prominent examples was when I was told by an employee they would patch me through to a manager and THEY HUNG UP. This kind of situation is extremely frustrating because it makes you realize that as a consumer you are not respect and powerless to these companies that promise services for their products you pay for but do not deliver. Based on this experience I would really recommend anyone with an LG product looking to have it repair to skip it, and go look for another product with a company who cares for their consumers.

    Bought my LG G4 in June 2015 and it stopped working about a month ago because of the bootloop issue. I called LG and the phone representative stated it would be repaired and sent me a shipping label. I shipped the phone to them and after about a week of it sitting in "diagnosing" status they declined to repair stating it was out of warranty and physical or water damaged. I never dropped the phone once and always kept it in an Otterbox Defender case since the day I bought it. The phone was never once near water. When I called to find out why the phone repair was declined the rep stuck to the script saying, "It's no longer under warranty or physically damaged". She said they can repair it for about $75 or refurbish it for $150.

    I declined to have it repaired and demanded a supervisor but the representative kept saying the supervisor will advise the same. I had the phone sent back to me, broken and useless. I am still making payments on a phone I can no longer use as the 2 year payment plan is not quite up until June 2017. I really don't think I am liable to make good on the remaining payments for a broken phone I can't use. I will never buy another LG product. I cannot believe after all the similar reviews I've read there is not a class action lawsuit filed against this company.

    My family has 4 LG phones and three different models. They have all been modified so that you cannot format the sd card as internal memory. That is a feature on the new Android. They disabled it. You cannot move any apps to the card. You cannot move mp3 or any other music format to sd. Players cannot find it. Downloaded games, apps of any kind cannot be moved to sd. All of them eat up internal storage. The camera on my K10 only has a 4X zoom. Pitiful. Seems like a ploy to get you to buy more expensive phone with more memory. Will never buy another LG product.

    My LG G4 suffered from boot looping after less than a year. LG acknowledges this defect but failed to recall the affected phones. However, since my phone was still in warranty, I sent it to LG for repair on Dec 30. FedEx lost the repaired phone so after being reimbursed by FedEx, LG sent me a replacement. The replacement they sent me is not compatible with my carrier, Sprint. LG, depending on who I talk to, says that either the ESN release needs to be filed or that the release has already been processed. I have made at least five requests for the ESN release to be filed since Feb 3, but my phone still doesn't work on Sprint's network. I've been without a phone for nearly two months now and have given up hope that LG will ever help me. They will not activate the replacement, send me a replacement that works with my carrier, or refund me. Their customer service is a complete joke. Avoid LG products at all costs.

I called LG support unfortunately my warranty just expired this January first as per the technician. I told her that I found many other customers with the same problem on the internet while trying to figure out what was wrong with my phone and she told me that they never had a complaint. This is a fault of LG. They should fix the problem for the customer without an extra charge. I am not happy with LG.

    3 months after receiving my refurbished LG g4 phone I started having problems. I would not be in control of my settings. Either it would be blocked out or not be there at all. My phone would download things all the time even if I tried to stop it. I would receive fake lg legal agreements. My phone would turn off when I would try to record it with my other cameras. I would get redirected to fake websites as well as fake 1 800 numbers. It would turn on repeatedly when I would try and factory reset. It would have this vibrating pulse about every 3 seconds that would drain my battery extremely fast. It would delete any photos or videos that I would record of it. It would know when I was about to make calls or report this to someone and turn off my phone before I could dial number, as if it could see my every move. Amongst a few other things that happened in last 30 days them are just a few.

    I'm 100% convinced that someone was remotely controlling my phone and was able to see through the camera because it would stop me from doing something seconds before I could dial number or record it or anything of that nature. It could change setting right in front of my me and had total control of my phone. After 3 factory resets nothing would stop this hacking attack to my phone. I cannot google things now because I won't agree to the google agreement. I'm limited to phone calls and texts. Of which I had never received missing texts and tech support said it showed texts leaving their phone but would never make it to mine for starters etc...

    If anybody else believes they were actually hacked and not just victim to malfunctions of the phone please let me know. I'm not going to give them my phone back for refund after reading in the reviews what a nightmare that will be. I'm going to get a different phone and never buy anything lg again. I might try to find a tech who can inspect it carefully and see if he can detect any tampering with because I'm 100% know I was a victim of a hacking scam.

    LG G4 phone still on lease program will not reboot after one year and one month. Sprint rep made us aware of LG G4 issues, told us to go directly to LG. After sending phone back for inspection LG claimed not under warranty due to damage. I have never dropped the phone and have always kept the phone in an Otterbox for protection. The only damage the phone has is a cracked camera lens from my carrying in back pocket. The phone has been able to be used with the lens cover damage.

    LG said they could fix for $85 for the lens and $185 for the other issue. Having contacted LG support and speaking to someone from? The rep was on script and kept saying “Due to damage your phone is not under warranty. You can pay to have phone repaired.” After continually asking if a diagnostic had been run to verify a software issue has been done and asking if there is a known issue she reluctantly admitted there was an issue of people not being able to boot up beyond the LG screen.

    We researched and noticed many complaints about this phone have indicated that numerous persons have and are experiencing the exact same problem. I just asked for them to repair the software issue, don't worry about the lens I can get a replacement for $13. They are sending the phone back as I sent them. I am S.O.L. and having to continue paying for a defective phone. Out of frustration some have tried repairing themselves. Some have found that by taking a hair blower and heating the chips so they will fall back in place can sometimes repair the phone.

    How can a company out of good conscious knowing there is an issue continue to treat a consumer in such a manner and stay in business? How can we as consumers come together and file a suit against LG??? To make an issue right? The attempt to contact LG has been impossible after having missed the call from Alabama after I complained the previous weekend. I get caught in a loop and am unable to make contact with a real live person... Only having to hang up…

I've noticed this happened after I dropped the phone, however, I have a case to protect the phone, so, shouldn't be an issue, but who knows. If it happens again, I'm done with the LG G4.

    I have a LG TV. After 4 years of use, it started to show different type of failures. I searched the web, many people encountered the similar problems. By baking the PCB (main board, or the IO board) can fix the issue, sometimes it will work for a few months. In my case, different issues popped up. I baked it again and fixed it. I am a computer HW engineer and this points to the flow soldering issue during manufacturing. Apparently LG does care because when this showed up, it would have passed the warranty.

    In Oct 2015, I purchased their flagship G4 phone. After 14 months of use, the phone is in endless boot loop during power up. Again, many people complained about this. Youtube showed user how to bake the phone. Again, this is the manufacturing SMT soldering issue. I baked the phone and able to get it to work for 24 hours. After a full backup, the phone died again. It is out of warranty. I shipped that back to LG yesterday, and I am not sure how much it will cost to fix it. THE BOTTOM LINE IS: I will not buy any LG products.

    Will never own a LG phone again. I bought the beautiful LG G3. Was an amazing phone that was simple yet packed with features. I was a big fan of the phone. I woke up one morning to find that my G3 had bricked. It was stuck in boot loader. I had the phone for little over two years, so it was out of warranty. I ended up buying a new LG G4 for $350.00 (even though the G5 was out). Not even a full year later, my LG G4 bricked. It stays on the LG G4 boot loader screen. Supposedly it's a hardware / mother board issue. Saying that I'm very frustrated is an understatement. These phones are expensive to fix out of warranty, not accounting for the time it takes to fix them. Save yourself time, pain and money, and just stay away.

    My LG Nexus 5X was affected by the bootloop issue. One evening it just randomly began restarting, and then never turned back on. I had the phone for 8 months. I had to send it out to LG to be inspected and possibly repair. About 2 weeks later I was told it could not be fixed. They offered to "upgrade" me to a G4, which I didn't not want as it has no fingerprint sensor. They then agreed to ship a G5 instead. About 3 weeks later (one month after my phone died) I get a package that has a refurbished G4 in it. I called and was told a new order will be shipped out with the G5 and I can then send the G4 back. During this whole time, I had to go out and purchase a new phone.

    About two weeks later and no G5, I called Customer Support who had no record of the G5 ever being shipped and was told they could do nothing about it. I emailed Customer Support and only get generic "Sorry for the inconvenience" emails back, but nothing is being done each time I call for an update. It 100% safe to say I will never purchase another LG product again. I am glad this happened before me and my wife purchased some new LG washers and dryers we were looking at just before this.

    Next step. Contacting LG, I went a few rounds and I got the info on how to get the phone serviced for free. Granted it will be almost a month before I get it back. Oh they do tell you to pull your SIM card and extra Memory as they toss them in the trash if it is sent to them in the phone. Granted It took me almost 3 hours.

    Summary: Paid $72 to have phone repaired and back within 5-7 business days. 25 business days and counting with no phone. Details: I sent my LG G Flex 2 to LG Electronics for out of warranty repair in December 2016. It was received on 12/19/16. It was diagnosed on 12/20/2016 as "Power Completely Off/Components on Board" at fault (This is technically incorrect as I noted it does communicate via USB with a PC and registers as a "Qualcomm 9008" device - physical components were fine, only the software was wiped from memory. Nonetheless LG diagnoses the whole motherboard as faulty and charged $72 to swap it without replacing any housing).

    I paid $72 by phone on 12/22/16 at the number provided. Payment was accepted. I verified on my banking app during the call and the service representative verified payment on their end. She stated it'd be "3-5 days for the repair" and I'd get a FedEx tracking number when repair was complete. The email from LG Electronics Alabama, Inc. also stated, "You will receive your repaired unit within 5 to 7 business days from the date we receive your payment." I received no calls or emails and the "Track Repair" page on LG's website still read "Repair In Progress" as of 1/11/17. I called again and the same representative told me the board was on back order and would be available on the 13th. Repairs would begin then, and it'd be 5 more days after that to wait on repairs.

    A week later on 1/20/17, I receive an email from LG saying to contact them, that repairs could not be made at this time. This email was sent late business hours Friday afternoon, so I was unable to contact until the following Monday, 1/23/17. The phone number was different, apparently Customer Service division. The previous calls were with the Physical Damage/OOW repair department. The email address was verified as LG.

    After half an hour or so of this new representative checking my account, he tells me the board for my phone is actually on back order until March. I informed him that wait is not acceptable because I was already told the part was available as of the 13th by the repair department representative, because the original statement is "receive repaired unit 5 to 7 days from date of payment" and it was a whole calendar month later and because, more practically speaking, I'm moving mid-February and phone is at risk being permanently lost/delayed in mail. He apologizes and offers a refurbished LG G4 instead of my G Flex 2 if I do not wish to wait any longer.

    I refused, stating the G4 was well-known to have boot loop issues, not reliable and expressed I preferred my G Flex 2. He then offered a G5. I was unaware of anything defective with that model at the time of the call so I did accept a refurbished G5 to replace my G Flex 2. I was given a second authorization # to track the G5 with and told I would not be receiving my G Flex 2 back. I asked for a FedEx tracking number and - you guessed it - was told I will be sent one by email in 5-7 more days (In retrospect I should have pointed this statement as being an unacceptable wait too, but I maintained the same politeness I've had in all these calls.

    As of this morning, 1/30/17, my tracking page for my G Flex 2 still reads "Repair In Progress" over a month later. The tracking page for the second number I was given on 1/23/17, to track the G5, has read "Awaiting Customer Shipment" for one week. This is the only message it has said since the representative gave me the tracking number. 1/22/17 when payment was made until today, 1/30/17, is 25 business days. I paid $72 to "receive your repaired unit within 5 to 7 business days from the date we receive your payment." I have made three phone calls to two representatives from different LG departments and don't even have a shipping tracking number yet. I am following up with another phone call during business hours today to try and escalate and expedite my case with LG. This wait is unacceptable and is bordering on unbearable now.

    I purchased a LG phone in Sept. of 2015. I had to replace it July 2016. Today 1-27-2017 this phone stopped working. I have to pay to replace it. I am very frustrated because I may not be able to retrieve my data. I feel that you should be told at the time of purchase that this may happen. I have read many reviews from LG customers that have had the same experiences with their LG phones. Why do you keep selling these defective phones? It makes no sense to pay for a phone that doesn't work. I will not be purchasing a LG phone again. I will pay this phone off and purchase another brand.

    We purchased the LG G5 phones December 2016. Had constant problems with the batteries with this phone. Had constant problems with the phone having to reboot. Once the warranty is up within two weeks both phones to completely crashed and shut down. Took the phones back to T-Mobile. They say nothing they can do. Want to charge you $300-$500 for a new phone depending on which one you want. They say to contact LG. LG has had several complaints regarding this phone. They are doing absolutely nothing about it. This is a complete scam. LG is aware of what they are doing with these telephones and that everybody is having the same problem. They need to reimburse people for all the money that you paid on the so-called leases of these phones. There's going to be a class-action suit if something is not done immediately. I too have contacted LG and filed a complaint.

    LG G4 a trash. Just stay away from this phone (or probably all LG phones). I bought this phone 15 months ago, and recently, it stopped working (problem of Boot Looping). I called the service repair and they said "you have to send your phone for servicing" (payable, of course). Firstly, I don't get it from people who are willing to send their phone loaded with private stuff to unknown person for repair. Secondly, why LG did make the solution (repair kit, firm download) available on their website? This problem of boot loop was discovered sept. 2016, and LG representative acknowledged the problem later, and said that all the phone with this issue will be fixed. Here I am now with almost a dead phone loaded with important photos (can't transfer them to PC, USB does not recognize the new drive), and can't send it to a stranger to fix it. Very disappointed.

    I am very dissatisfied with LG. It was my first product I used of LG and my life's first expensive thing I bought from my responsibility. It was a great phone according to internet reviews. After a year it stuck into bootloop after updating software. This problem was with many LG G4s. My phone had a little crack on the screen which I got 6 months before the problem happened. LG was taking responsibilities to repair all of the phones but they refused for mine because it had a little scratch on it (according to policy). How funny is this. Yes it had a physical damage, but that doesn't mean this is because of it.

    They knew bootloop problem is not because of that physical damage. But as most of the companies out there... Making money and all, asked for 150 dollars + taxes. ** man. Your phone is ** and still who has to pay... Consumer... Who just made a bad decision to choose LG. I will never buy any LG phone. Neither let my friend and family buy. Thank you LG. Life is so good...

    My mother and father purchased the "Best Phone on the Market", the LG G4 with the stylish leather back! Yeah... Pure sales tactic garbage. Due for an upgrade and in dire need of new phones, my parents went to the Sprint store. When arriving, they were greeted and shown around to new cell phones. Of course the phone that they push the hardest is always the best right?

    With high expectations and excitement for a new phone, my parents were swindled into buying the new $600 dollar LG G4. Not just one, but two of these phones! Long story short and not getting into dates, my father's went bad 11 months after they bought it. I kindly called and got everything situated. I packed it up, sent it off and everything was perfect. I receive notice that it will be 6-8 weeks. Take in mind, my father travels the country working and my mother stays home alone sometimes. This became a large inconvenience to our family. He went four and a half months without his phone. Not the 6-8 weeks. We called and called again. Finally dad got pretty pissed off and raised some hell. They placed us on the urgent rush list. My dad's phone comes back and it's all good!

    My mom's phone goes bad 3 weeks out of their one year purchase warranty. I call and raise suspicion to the fact that both phones took a crap right within a year. The "Best Phone of the Year" right? I call and complain saying it's out of warranty and I want it fixed. Told them it was the same issue as my dad, the motherboard went bad. The man kindly says they have a 15 month warranty for that issue. I get the label created and ready to ship. Takes me a couple days to get it over, but that's because nowhere to drop for FedEx around. I drop it, and receive notice that the label wasn't "Clear enough" therefore making my product become out of warranty by a month.

    Now I called to find my situation, and the guy tells me they can't take it and won't send me a label. It's out of warranty and I have to take it to a special place to get fixed. We paid 1300 for two phones that are junk!! Now one is worthless because they will not accept it for repair after I opened the case two months ago!! It didn't start to work again, and his excuse was "well if the product isn't in our facility when the warranty is in effect it's no good".

    I asked today to speak with a higher positioned person and am waiting to do so right now. My mom had to go buy a new phone to hold her over, but needs this one fixed. I am practically blown away at this point. I have new 2015 LG washer and dryer, a Lg TV we bought this year, our phones, my parents appliances and TV are LG and the list goes on, but how do they just neglect a customer that spends THOUSANDS!! I know that from this point on, I will be spreading the word that LG is a untrustworthy company with cheap products. I will never buy from LG again and I also advise other people to do the same.

I would say this device is trash and I wouldn't recommend anyone waste their time or money with LG and from the looks of the reviews I've read it doesn't seem as if the LG manufacturers care that they are distributing faulty products and are doing little to nothing about it to meet customer satisfaction.

    I have bought many Bluetooth headsets from LG but over the course of time they only last for 6 months. When you send it in, they either repair it or send you a new one; but as soon as you begin to use it, within the next 3 months, you have to call up the company and tell them it is no good. This constant back and forth of exchanging is wearing me out. Why can't they make their product to last. It seem that this was designed this way so that the consumers have to keep buying their product. I have decided that I will never buy another LG headset again because the workmanship is poor, and the customer service is not helpful.

So I went back to AT&T and the sale person stated to me that I was the 10 customer that came in that day with the same problem with the LG3. So they replace the sim card twice and still wouldn't work. They told me that I would have to contact LG to see what I should do. At that time I still owed $250. Well Anna (LG customer service) stated that I was still in the manufacturer warranty. She stated to me if the new sim card doesn't work to call them back and they would have me send the phone to them to get fix.

    Well when the second sim card didn't work, I called back LG and spoke to this guy who was rude. He then told me that my phone wasn't under the manufacturer warranty. He stated to me that the manufacturer warranty didn't start when I purchased but when the phone was made. WHAT!!! So if the phone sat on an AT&T shelf for months. The consumer is out of luck. LG rep stated that I can mail the phone back and it would cost me to fix it. I couldn't believe it. I still owed $250 on this phone. I was not going to put any more money into it. I was so upset. I called AT&T and told the At&t rep what happen. I told him that I needed a phone and that I will go back to their store and purchased the ZTE phone for $39.00.

    Well the AT&T rep put me on hold and came back and told me because I was a customer of AT&T for many years that they would sent me the ZTE phone for free. Which I was grateful for because I needed a phone. I still have to pay back the $250 balance for the LG3 phone that doesn't work. It just makes me sick that LG can do this to customer. I will never purchase 100's of dollars for a phone again. This ZTE phone does everything my LG3 phone did for what I need it to do and the cost is only less than $40. So if It dies then who cares, I would just purchase another one for $40. It's so wrong that consumers are being ripped off. Please if anyone files an action suit please contact me. **.

    My phone was working totally fine until one day it suddenly got stuck on a reloop boot, where the phone continuously restarts until it finally stopped working completely. I sent my phone to LG, who had assured me it would be fixed, to get it back three weeks later and find out that it is being refused repair due to 'evidence of liquid residue found'. Regardless of this, the problem and reason why the phone stopped working had completely nothing to do with this, and it is a widespread problem throughout LG G4 phones and highly publicized over the internet.

    Basically, I understand that although accidental damage may not be covered under warranty, but the liquid residue found has nothing to do with the problem - it couldn't be more irrelevant and it seems totally unfair that they refused to fix/replace this phone for such a widespread problem.

    I'm giving the phone a 1 star because I can't go any lower. I bought the phone at the Sprint store. I hadn't bought a phone for five years, because I loved the Samsung phone I had. But it stopped working the day before I took a vacation overseas. I ran into the Sprint store because I needed help. The phones looked totally different than they had five years before.

    The salesman pushed the LG4, and I thought it looked and sounded great. I was to get the phone for free with a two year contract, or pay $600 if that wasn't a deal that was offered. I bought the phone, and left for Bali. The phone didn't work properly there, except for the camera, which worked wonderfully. I thought that it was just because I was overseas. When I returned to the States, the problem continued. I took it to the Sprint store, and was told that I needed a new battery... Long story short, I bought multiple batteries and different kinds of chargers until I demanded to use my insurance to get a new phone, since my phone just wouldn't turn back on.

    That's when I was told that insurance wasn't appropriate for a defective phone. It would have to be repaired by LG, and it would take a long time. There would be no break on the payments for the phone, no break by Sprint for the bill during that time, and no loaner phone. So I needed to be sure to pay the bills while I waited for a month or more (which I did - I'm still waiting) to get my phone repaired and back. He also cheerfully told me that some people had to return their phone more than once.

    I waited for over a month, then contacted the Oregon Attorney General's office. I have heard back from Sprint, and I got an email from LG saying that my phone is in the mail. I would prefer a new, high quality phone from a less sleazy corporation, and I would like for LG to refund my money that I've paid, and waive the rest since they were never able to keep up their end of the bargain.

    I've had 3 LG G4s phones and 2 LG G2 phones. All of them have bricked in some way. My first G4 went into a boot loop after a year and I had to get it warranty replaced. The replacement I had wouldn't even turn on! I ended getting another warranty replacement of the replacement and that just recently bricked after 3 months. The last one was "out of warranty" so I had to buy it outright from AT&T or wait several months with a cheap old phone!! It was absolutely not my fault that it bricked. It locked on the LG logo and then went black and wouldn't respond in any way. I wouldn't ever recommend this company to anyone.

    I brought my LG mobile phone from Boost Mobile with insurance. Since the day I brought it, this phone has been overheating so twice a day if not more. I have to turn it off for 30 mins and turn it back on (sometimes 3 times a day). So yesterday it got so hot I turned it off and it completely died. So I phoned Boost Mobile as I have insurance with them. The rep I spoke to was speaking so fast I had to stop her twice. She did not want to replace my phone (so why would I have paid insurance?), told me to get in touch with LG.

    I asked to speak to her supervisor as I brought the phone from Boost Mobile shop with insurance. This she did not want to do at all. She kept cutting me off, would not give me her name. Then I got cut off from the conversation. Possibly the worst customer service rep I have ever had to talk to. So now I have a LG phone that does not work insurance. I paid but Boost will not send me a new phone (it's 3 months old!) The phone is in perfect physical condition. I will NEVER go with Boost Mobile ever again.

    I got the suggested insurance through Verizon, Asurion. My LG G4 stopped working back in July. I called Verizon, they asked if it had any water damage. Yes it did from 6 months ago. My phone just quit working that day. I was sent over to Asurion. I was sent a refurbished phone and had to pay $150. My friend's phone did the same thing the next week. She did not have water damage, she had to pay $350 to upgrade her phone. I did some research and found out that this is a known problem with these phones. Last Thursday the replacement phone just quit working for no reason. No water damage. I called Verizon, the person I spoke with told me, "Oh yeah the G4 and G5 are known for this problem." If LG had any kind of ethics, they would recall all of these phones.

    Yesterday afternoon my LG G4 decided to stop working. Locks up at the LG logo and then goes black. I went into the local Sprint store who acknowledged that the LGs were having this problem and customers were coming in constantly with the same problem within past 3 months. That being said, Sprint will only upgrade my phone for $200. When I contacted LG last night, they reluctantly admitted that their phones were having this problem, but indicated I need to send my phone to them so they can determine if I have damaged the phone. They sent me a ground FedEx shipping label. By the way, they only give you a label for ground shipping. They indicated to me that this will take up to two weeks.

    I have a business that runs to my phone. Not to mention I do not work in an office, but from my car and off-site with clients. I use my phone to run my business during the day. I am beside myself that LG thinks that not immediately replacing their defective equipment is acceptable. Even Asurion sends phones to their consumers immediately and then have you send them the broken phone.

    I am disgusted that yet another company does not care about their consumers nor the product they put out on the market. IF THEY CARED, THEY WOULD RECTIFY THE PROBLEM TO KEEP THEIR CUSTOMERS SATISFIED. I will take their phone until I can get my free upgrade. I will never buy another LG product again. I am tired of dealing with a Corporate America who could care less about their customer's satisfaction. They should be recalling this phone to avoid more customer aggravation, but instead they're playing innocent!!

    Bought the phone in March 2015, started having problems with it almost immediately. Verizon store helped as much as they could. When I entered the hospital for open heart surgery this past spring, phone would not charge. Had it taken back to Verizon store who no longer offers repair or tech assistance. Contacted LG upon release from Hospital and Convalescence home, and LG tells me warranty expired! Tried to explain circumstances to no avail. Agreed to pay for repairs, and was told to remove battery and send in. Agreed to repair estimate. Informed it required a new board, and there would be a delay in shipping since board was back ordered.

    Finally got it, and installed the battery but note appeared that "Phone requires a card in order to work." Looked and saw the card was not included in the returned repair package. Called immediately on 9/5/16 and requested they send me the card that was in my phone. Was told "not their problem." Refused to let me speak to a manager.

    Bought (through the payment plan they have) my LG G4 from AT&T last July for close to $600. Didn't have any issues other than it was not as fast as before but thought since there was so much info/pictures it slowed it down. Fast forward - have my phone for 8 months. The knock screen stopped working. Not really an issue. I just turned it on with the back button. Occasionally it would be really warm as it is being used. About 2 weeks later I plug my phone and leave it on the table to charge. When I come back the screen is cracked top to bottom!!

    Went to AT&T, they tell me they have seen this issue but they can't do anything it is now damaged (even though I didn't physically do it) and has to go through LG. Contact LG. They don't want to help. Phone is out of warranty, of course it is. Well I continue to use it with a broken screen, within 2 weeks completely shuts off and now is a useless piece of junk. I keep contacting LG in hopes they will stand behind their products. I mean the LG means life's good, right?

    Finally they a free to check out the phone. After I have to buy a prepaid phone so I can continue to have a phone for my business. Send it back. They tell me it's out of warranty and damaged! Yes I know it's damaged but I only charged it which caused the damage. Keep in mind I only have been paying for it for 9 months out of 24. Sure they will repair it if I pay them $160 for repairing the damage I didn't cause!! I told them, "No way". That would mean my phone would be close to $800!! Not on your life. Needless to say I am still paying on this piece of junk LG phone and am using an old Samsung S4 with a cracked screen that my daughter had laying around. NEVER PURCHASE AN LG PRODUCT!!

    I purchased a LG G4 mobile cell phone on Amazon. After using it for about 9 months, the cell phone went into a boot loop and I couldn't get the cell to start. I contacted LG to get them to repair under manufacturer's warranty. They refused, because they said that the phone I had was manufactured outside of the US. But I had purchased the phone on Amazon brand new in the US. I don't understand why I should care where they manufacture the phone. Most of the products in the US are manufactured in places like China and India, but all companies I've ever dealt with had always honored their warranty. I had submitted a complaint to the BBB hoping for a resolution, but LG obviously doesn't show even respect for the BBB and have lied in their response saying that I wasn't the original purchaser of the device even though I had provided my Amazon receipt.

    LG even made a statement earlier this year that they acknowledge that there is a hardware defect on this phone and that they will repair the affected devices. I guess that was lie too. Buyers beware of this company! They claim to have quality products like other Korean companies like Samsung, but I've never had a Samsung device break down on me within the warranty period. It is very obvious which company is superior.

Since the phone was never dropped nor wet the insurance does not apply. I took it to a Verizon store where the first thing they did is offer me an upgrade to their newest product (I don't want to pay more! I just want to get this fixed). My son's cellphone (Droid Turbo) was bought thru them. I just wanted another battery and they said they don't carry it (then why did you sell it to me).

    I got the ticket to send my cell to their repair center. I am just worried about the outcome of this fiasco. Verizon should be the one picking up the tab since they are the ones who sold it to me. I am frustrated and with all the negative reviews I've seen here.

    Had the bootloop issue H/W: 1.0, 507, manufactured 08/2015 and purchased in October 2015. LG decided to not do a recall on their G4 and let consumers lose all their data as the phones are ticking time bombs ready to die. Customer service was unhelpful and rude at times. I shipped the phone in they would not expedite the service despite the whole bootloop fiasco and stated it would take 7-9 days to repair upon repair. They received the phone on 6/23 and I had to call twice before they updated the status (was stuck on received) of the item on 6/29. So much for 7-9 business days for repair. Today is 6/30 and there's still an estimated 6 days left. I'll be going into my 3rd week without a phone. LG, never again.

    Updated on 11/02/2016: I wrote a 1 star review back in July regarding the bootloop issue and 4 weeks wait time to receive my phone back. This time I would give them a 0 stars if it were an option. Shortly after I received my "repaired" bootloop G4 back, the double tap to wake stopped working half the time. I dealt with it until early October. Since my warranty was ending I ended up shipping it in and used a flip phone for the time being. Again they would not expedite the process and I had to use their slow Fedex ground shipping.

    I'm confident it's a digitzer issue which is causing the double tap not to work sometimes as I already did all the software troubleshooting attempts. Oct 9, 2016: shipped in and received back from LG. They replaced the motherboard for some reason. I called in said that they didn't fix the double tap to wake issue and explained in detail to the customer rep who nonchalantly didn't care about my problem. Oct 18,2016: Shipped in. I received an email about a week later notifying me that the board was swapped out and the phone was being shipped back to me. I told the customer rep and her supervisor that won't fix my problem because they did it the 2nd time and it did nothing. They said there they won't stop the Fedex shipment from their repair facility back to my house and I would just have to wait for it to arrive before shipping it to them again.

    Nov 1, 2016: Shipped it to them again and explained again what has happened so far. Hopefully this terrible company does something about the terrible phone they released to us consumers. I've been left without a smartphone for a total of 2 months now. TL;DR Shipped in phone 4xs for repair and nothing has been done. Customer service is fake and doesn't care about your issues at all.

    As many people have come to voice their frustrations. I too was victim of the LG G4 BOOTLOOP problem that this phone has been experiencing. What is very maddening however, is that LG was made aware of the issue yet they chose to not do a voluntary recall of the phones instead allowing them to pretty much go dead on the customers. And yes customer service sucks because you get people in the Philippines who really have no idea how to handle complaints and their accent gets in the way. Because of LG's lack of accountability, I lost very dear photos and there was no way to go back and update my phone because it would not go past the LG home screen. I did everything to take care of this phone, bought an expensive case to prevent it from falling and cracking and turns out that LG would be the one to cause the internal damage.

    Like everyone else, it's very infuriating to see that a company as big as LG not take any action to rectify this situation knowing pretty darn well, the mobile phones were having this issue. By writing this review, I want to inform other prospective buyers that if they do decide to purchase an LG phone, they are doing so at their own risk and it does have the potential to die on you by no fault of yours. And good luck trying to get assistance because you will be talking to people from the Philippines who have no idea how to handle scenarios such as these.

And the repair document stated that the phone is water damaged. But actually this is not the truth, I have been using this phone perfectly except for the battery life. And it never dropped into water.

    The brightness of the screen is unable to go above 50%. Raising the brightness slider up to 50% raises the real brightness of the screen normally, but past 50% there is no perceptible effect. This is not just me not "seeing" the change when it might still be there. It used to be that the slider was calibrated in such a way that the last 50% had a way bigger effect than the first 50%, so at 50% it's more like the brightness output is 30% (which makes my current problem extra annoying). The brightness is supposed to really take off past 50% and now it refuses to.

LG customer service is worthless, I was explaining this to people in a T-mobile retail store. I asked T-mobile and customers in store for phones that do not have problems within 1st year as 2 of my 3 LG phones did after several months. They recommended Apple and Samsung. LG phones are very nice when they work, which is not very long. LG customer service is next to worthless, they cannot even solve simple problems. If you are looking for a phone that lasts more than 6 months do not buy LG! I ignored others reviews, lured by features and price. A mistake.

    One of the thousands of others who have had the boot loop issue with the phone, mine is a growing and ridiculous one. THEY LOST MY PHONE. Hours on the phone with the Philippine customer service which is a complete waste of time. Never get a straight answer or any resolution. Always told "we will escalate"? To what. Another bottomless pit with no answers. Was told my phone was being shipped. Called them back when it did not arrive. "OOPS" they said. "We duplicated your RA #. Your phone is lost. I will escalate a search for it." That was a week ago. No response yet.

    SO my only course of action at this point is to file a small claims court case and sue them for the loss which if it comes to that The CEO will not be happy since I will name him in it. Let him pay A 1000 dollar an hour lawyer to show up for a 700 dollar phone. I would never buy another LG product again and will make sure to post this lack of customer service to every place I can. I may not get my phone back or compensation but I will sure cost them 10 times that in business if at all possible.

    I am on the phone with customer service at the moment, for the 4th time today, and the 7th time this week. Each experience I have with customer service is worse than the last, and the entire experience of sending my phone for repair (for an issue entirely beyond my control, the LG G4 boot-loop issue, a known issue with these phones) has been a nightmare. I will never buy another LG device again, will discourage any contacts I have to avoid LG at all costs, and will be switching back to a reliable device as soon as humanly possible.

    I sent my device in for repair after waiting to receive an email with a shipping label, as promised. When the shipping label was never received via email, I was forced to pay out of pocket to ship the device to their facility. After several days, I had heard nothing as to whether or not my phone was received, if it was to be fixed, nothing. I called customer service and had the first of my many terrible experiences. Long story short, they cannot locate my device at their facility and I am still waiting on hold to talk to a supervisor. This is the worst customer service experience I have had since Comcast, and the worst phone I have had since the Motorola Razr. (I heard they are re-releasing the Razr. Maybe I'll go that route.) There is a petition anyone with the G4 boot-loop issue can sign here. **

    I got myself a phone and a tablet for free when I signed up with a local telco. The phone doesn't have spectacular specs compared to the other ones available in the market, but the tablet is superb, with built in speakers, expandable storage, and sim card capacity, on top of basic tablet features. The gadgets also came with one-year warranty from the telco. Both gadgets were fine and were running smoothly when all of a sudden, 13 months after I got them, the phone and tablet refused to turn on. Happened few days apart.

    Although both were extra gadgets, there are unsaved classified files, apps and contacts that I cannot retrieve anymore. Because the warranty for both gadgets already expired, I no longer brought them to the store. Another reason why I havent brought them anywhere is because of the sensitivity of the files saved. There was no backup for all the files. It is just so frustrating that the 24-month contract ended already after it reached midway. Not planning to buy any mobile gadgets from LG anytime soon.

    I bought the LG G4 for my brother. I got him the leather version because it matches the shoes he wears for work. He loves that you can pair this to our LG TV and use it as a remote control (the TV's remote control is crap). It has an RF feature, that gives him access to the radio when commuting. The camera is awesome. It has an aperture of f/1.8 which is perfect for low light photography. It can shoot raw or in jpeg format. The camera can be manually adjusted (white balance, manual focus, ISO and shutter speed). It also has optical image stabilization for video mode. I just wish I got the dual SIM instead of the single SIM. We also like the removable battery feature that you can charge in a separate dock, so if you have an extra batt, you can pop off the empty one and mount it on the dock and put in your extra batt. It has good earphones with decent sound quality, not too much bass (my brother is not a bass person, so this is great).

    My problems about this are it only has 3gb RAM and the Android Lollipop version of the phone is not yet available in the Philippines and when we first got the phone, it has a lot of pre installed apps that we have no use for at all. It's great that it has the wireless charging feature and the LG quick circle feature, but the downside is you have to buy a special housing to enjoy these features.

    I have 2 LG g4 (815). One I bought through Craigslist and the other through Swappa. The Swappa one was working for couple of months and then start having the restart issue (freeze, restart, and sometimes freezes without restart: in this case I have to remove the battery to turn it on). The one from Craigslist, I believe the guy who sold it to me knew about the boot loop problem (I was planning to give it to my wife).

    This is a gorgeous phone with a superb camera, and it's sad to see that the LG didn't fix this problem when the damage was minimal. They denied the problem existed and now (at least in my case) refused to fix it or replace it (I emailed them and was told that because I owned an international version, there is nothing they can do). There is no way that my hands would touch another LG product. I don't care how good they are. (This goes for my wife, my 2 kids and anybody who is willing to listen to my story.)

    Have had nothing but problems with this phone (LG G4) and it's 3 warranty exchanges since day 1! Constantly times out on Wi-Fi when other devices have smooth and fast connectivity. Even if I'm not on Wi-Fi and just using my phone's data the signal will time out even though I have full bars & a clear signal. Getting multiple notifications for a single event - sometimes get notified of text messages that I've read HOURS before. Not sending my text messages when I press "send". Visual Voicemail's drop-down notification will only show the PHONE NUMBER of the person who left the voicemail regardless of the fact that they are saved in my contacts; their contact name, however, will show in the actual app.

    Outgoing SMS messages will frequently send duplicates to the receiver - this is usually accompanied by a red triangle with a button labeled "Retry" in the original message. Without doing anything else it will send multiple times. Frequently don't get incoming SMS messages. Constantly crashing apps. Top it all off, called LG Support yesterday and spoke with the most idiotic call center representative ever who was able to provide NO resolution and wasn't listening to what I was telling her about my phone. Asked to be connected to somebody else and was put on hold for 15 minutes before she finally came back and said nobody was available. This is my second but LAST LG product I'll ever buy!

The smaller screen is dumb. But that I could deal with. When I found out that I could not customize my screen by arranging my app widgets, or creating app folders, or change the widget, I decided that I will no longer be an LG customer.

    Phone was great until the week before the warranty expiration date when it stopped recognizing the SIM card. I initiated a repair/return request online over the weekend (2 days before the warranty expired). When I heard nothing back, I called on the day of the warranty expiration and was advised that since the phone would be out of warranty when it arrived in their repair facility they "could not guarantee it would be considered under warranty". First of all, the phone shouldn't have experienced such a major issue within the first year, and this is a known issue among LG issues so is clearly a defect. Secondly, a problem logged with the manufacturer PRIOR to the warranty expiration should be repaired! Extremely poor customer service!

    I bought an LG-4 cell phone at a Sprint Store in Denver in late August. The phone had recurring problems including shutting down with no forewarning, sometimes when I was on calls. Finally, in early January, while on an extended business trip, the phone suddenly died altogether and upon diagnoses was determined to be irreparable. Insofar I was in the middle of an extended business trip, it was a nightmare arranging for a replacement. I (and my girlfriend) were given five different stories about getting a replacement from Sprint representatives in Phoenix, in the Los Angeles metro area, and in Denver.

    Finally, I was able to speak to someone in Denver at a full-service Sprint store (after contacting the store where I bought the phone, and speaking to an individual who was incredibly rude) who had some knowledge about the replacement process and was courteous to boot. She went into the records of my "experience" and immediately arranged for a replacement phone to be shipped to my home (and within a 24-hour window I could be back in Denver). The replacement phone was beset with problems and was essentially non-functional in all respects.

    I took it to the same full-service Sprint store (which ordered the replacement) and though I requested a diagnostic I was told that the entire issue stemmed from the talkback feature, which I disabled on site. Though I asked that it be further checked, I was told (after a cursory exam) that the phone should now work well. It did not. In fact, things got worse as soon as I began traveling for work again.

    The phone froze -- losing all cell and text service for hours at a time (which I discovered only when missing business calls to my phone). The speaker always went on when I was on a call, though the volume often decreased so that I could not hear with the speaker on or off. If I was moving at all while using the phone the screen went blank and I could not hear people I was talking with, nor they me. Hence, it was impossible to use a cell phone while walking or moving at all. Though I set and reset volume and brightness settings, nothing held firm.

    I went to a full-service Sprint store in NYC last Friday. After describing the problems, a Sprint technician removed the battery, looked at manufacturing date and other information, and then pulled up a notification from the web indicating that the replacement phone I had been shipped was known to have a manufacturer's defect and should never have been sent to me. I was informed that another replacement phone could be ordered for delivery upon my return to Denver to the Sprint full-service store. I inquired today about that and was told that I would have to return to the store and have it diagnosed on site before a replacement could be order - the very reason I had gone to the same store two weeks previous.

    Upon diagnosis, it was determined that the phone was indeed defective and would have to be replaced. However, because LG-4's are on back order, it may be 7 to 10 business days before a replacement can be provided. On top of which I was told that the phone may well continue to malfunction. So I've gone the better part of a month without a reliably working phone. Sprint will take no responsibility for the problems, claiming that there has been no interruption of service, hence I am not entitled to any financial recompense, even though it was acknowledged if the phone won't work, then one can't access service. I was also told when I bought the phone that because it was on a lease I could trade it in for another type of phone at any time. I asked for repeated assurances that this was true. It turns out it is not.

    I'm stuck for another five to six months with a phone that may or may not work (unless the third time is a charm) and no one will take any responsibility for this situation. I will never buy any LG products again and will discontinue Sprint service as soon as I can, notwithstanding that I have been a Sprint customer for more than 15 years. I have provided the replacement e-ticket # below and attached the original receipt for the phone as purchased.

    I was a loyal customer since I purchased LG G Optimum many years ago, but I just realized that their products is suck and not able to resist a simple water drop. Here is my story. Recently, we sent my LG G4 which I purchased on November 18 via Wind Mobile to their official repair center in Richmond Hill when they returned us a call with a tremendous and huge amount for a simple repair. More than 600 Canadian dollar. Yes! I did not miss type it.

    The incident: I put the phone in my pants always and I work as a general helper where I wash many dishes every day. One day, the phone turned off suddenly and I found the case was kind of wet because the waters might pass through the pants while I was working. Then I stopped to use and tend to find solution online.

    After we called their customer service line, stated the fact or the possible problem and they recommend us to send to their official repair to check it. We sent the phone last Friday and they called us on Tuesday after we tracked the shipment arrived this Friday, then they told us the story of 600, bla.. bla.. If we are not going to fix it, they will charge us 20 for shipping plus unknown analysis fee.

    It was shock for me to hear this huge amount. It almost a new device price. I was very disappoint it. I also tried to research online about the same issues and realized that many consumers encountered the similar problem about get wet. Many of them were dropped into pool or sink and others just some water drops. Theirs looked more serious than mine, it was just some waters passed through the working pants. I think with this unforgettable experience, I won't buy any device from LG and will post my experience to my social networks. This is very ridiculous repair fee which is unacceptable for me.

    Updated on 02/04/2016: Throughout our experience with your official service centre Futuretel is unbelieve and insane: First at all, they quoted us a higher repair price of 625 plus 25 of diagnosis fee. Then we asked for return us the phone without any repair and paid 25 diagnosis fee as per requested, they sent us the wrong one which is totally different model LG G3 instead of LG G4 today. We called them but no one answer the phone. This creates more dissatisfaction and disappointment about your company's service and products among us. I'm totally unhappy with this incident and the customer experience that I encountered. I urge an explanation and solution. I am looking forward to hear from LG electronics Canada. Thank you in advance.

I purchased an LG G4, actually preordered it because I had absolutely loved my previous LG Optimus G. We purchased a $3000 LG refrigerator about two years ago. It was a company that I would lean toward while making purchases. I believed in the company, their products, and assumed they would stand behind their products and make sure loyal customers were well taken care of. I was wrong. After owning this phone just over three months it began to randomly overheat and shut down. I would have to remove the battery and power back up. This problem became progressively worse until a couple of weeks ago when it started doing it all the time. Now it is unusable.

    Upon further research I discovered that this was a manufacturer's defect and was happening to many others. Due to a recent cancer diagnoses, and being foster/adoptive parents with multiple children, most with special needs, communication between myself and my other half is vital. I took it to my carrier who told me I had to go through LG. LG told me that the best they could do was approx two weeks. They send a prepaid shipping label, we send it to them, they get it back to us 7-10 days after they receive it. Really? YOU sell me an expensive defective product, and, by no fault of mine, I have to be out a phone for two weeks?

    So, you, the multimillion dollar corporation, sell me, the struggling foster/adoptive parent with cancer, a defective phone and my family and I have to suffer and struggle without a phone which is so vital to our lives? Wow, most companies I've dealt with who have realized they made a mistake, which caused a valued customer an inconvenience, are willing to expedite a new product to that customer to make things right by them. That's customer service. So again, I will not purchase another LG phone, appliance, TV or other. Too many other choices to buy from a company who treats people like this one.

    The G4 heats up and the battery runs out quickly. I have met other satisfied G4 owners, so perhaps mine is a lemon, although it sounds like there are quite a few lemons out there. When you call LG's US customer service you immediately end up in a call center, likely in the Philippines. The reps are not equipped to assist customers, just to issue return labels. Might as well be no human customer service at all. They ask you to send it to a repair center in Texas.

    It took 3 and a half weeks for me to get the phone back. They returned it claiming they replaced a power management chip and the battery. They ignored the issue I had with the back cover and returned the defective cover. The phone is still heating up and running through 35% of its battery in less than 1 hour. I asked for a new phone, but they denied my request. Now they want me to send it back to Texas again.

    Got the tablet as a promotion when I got my LG G4 phone. Only have had it for a few months (mid-July '15) when I plugged it in before going to bed to charge the battery. The tablet was in a hard case and had a screen protector on it. It laid on a padded surface as I slept with it on the nightstand next to me all night. When I got up the next morning, I picked it up and pushed the power button to turn it on but the screen was not cracked physically, if you know what I mean, but was shattered nonetheless. By physically I mean there were no pieces of glass or actual cracks only the screen no longer was able to be used. Hard to explain.

    So naturally, I called and talked to customer service and they said I could send it in and they would look at it but if it was physical damage that it would not be under warranty. I explained that unlike most folks, if I had sat or stepped on it or dropped it that I would admit it and pay the price. But that it was sitting over night on the charger and no one else was in my room to "physically" damage it. To me, physical damage is where I dropped it or sat on it or I did something that would do that personally, not that I set it down and when I next picked it up it was damaged. So for me, it is not physical damage. So I sent it in.

    In the meantime and just prior to sending it to the repair center, precautionary steps were taken. I called a repair shop near me to find out what it would cost to repair if the LG people wouldn't. I was told that a common thing that makes a screen crack the way it did without a physical situation was that the battery will overheat, expand and cause the screen to crack from the inside. But the only way to know would be to open the back and examine the battery. So, when I sent the tablet, I sent a note with it saying what I had found out. Three days after they got it, I get an email saying it's physical damage and the price to fix it.

    I called and told the customer service people that it was not physical damage and that they would see that IF they had opened the back. I mean, come on, if it is physical damage then a ghost came into my room and dropped it then picked it up and put it in the exact spot I left it in. There is no way this was my fault. So they escalated the ticket to someone who called and I told her the same thing. Keep in mind, they still have my tablet. She says she is sending it to the liability department. He calls me and asks me to send them my charger cable and adapter I was using and he is going to get the tablet from the repair facility and HIS techs are going to look at it. 3 weeks later, it is sent back to me. Nothing wrong with the cable and adapter but physical damage to the tablet and no other information, no phone call, not a single communication other than they are sending it back after now it being 2 days shy of a month.

    So I call and call trying to get transferred to the liability dept. but no dice. I have to go through the whole shebang again. So now, I wait for the customer service person who is an underpaid outsourced barely speaking enough English to get by to send the ticket to a higher department so that they can call me and tell me they are sending it to liability and another week will go by. In the meantime I am paying a monthly charge with my phone carrier for a tablet I cannot use. But that is another fight. I so badly wish that all of us who have these problems could get together and file a class action lawsuit against LG and put them out of business. Then afterward ask them if "life's good" anymore.

    I NEVER requested nor accepted any updates but my LG G2 updated itself! YES ITSELF! This is unacceptable. I've been run around by T-mobile and LG. All phones should have a way to stop or not even receive updates from coming at all. HTC has this option. I thought HTC was the worst phone company but LG is making HTC look like an apple next to an eggplant.

    How do I start lawsuit for this? My phone is slowly erasing my information. The lollipop update took so many things away. This was the best phone I've ever had and it became 1 of the worst in less than a month after the forced update. I will not stand for this crap. There has to be a way to start a lawsuit against this fraudulent company. How can they get away with this? Answer they won't. Why? Because I'm now calling my congressman & my senator! Oh believe me somebody gonna pay. Or I'm going into my t-mobile store with a humongous cup of water, and I'm beyond clumsy.

    Not to mention if this don't make me feel better I'll keep being ultra clumsy at every t-mobile store I see. I'll try to move HTC, Samsung and iPhone out the way but it won't be my fault for ruining their phones. That's what the customer service folks at t-mobile and LG have stated to me. BTW, the store in Marina Pacific Long Beach has been flooded due to me. They lost 7 phones on display because of my clumsiness. Lol. Next store in sight 4st Long Beach, CA.

    I'm one of thousand of victims of LG warranty denials. I too was denied a repair for their defective touch screens on my LG G3, less than 1 year old. They have for years had massive problems with touch screens issues and claiming every phone they receive for repair is water damaged or water indicators. Hundreds of review right here and all over the internet. Very dishonest outfit!!! My phone has never seen any water nor rain, nor are my moisture indicators tripped. Avoid anything LG at all costs. Just not worth the hassle. They won't honor their warranty. You'll have to file a small claims lawsuit and get an affidavit from an independent repair shop.

    LG G4 is the worst phone EVER! - I don't even know where to begin with this complaint except that I wish I would have read this page before I was talked into buying this phone. And now I am STUCK with the worst phone humanly possible. Battery life last about an hour (UNACCEPTABLE) with any phone! It heats up under no duress, just sitting on my desk at work. I don't even use it while at work! UGGG! Screen Freezes. One side of my phone create a scramble and gets stuck in that mode. While texting the letters get stuck and stop working. If I am not looking at my screen while typing, I end up with either nothing or a jumbled mess. Connectivity is the slowest I have ever seen, even more so than dial up.

    I was just told that this phone has been recalled BUT I can't get a new phone. I am STUCK with an LG until I pay it off! Which I am willing to pay $390.00 right now and start over with another phone and payments just to get rid of it. And last but not least my daughter and I bought our phones together 2 months ago. She is already on her 2nd one because a week after we purchased the phones, her phone died immediately. At least mine lasted 2 months. Oh and she is bringing hers in tonight for service because again it's freezing. UNACCEPTABLE! I can't believe LG can get away with not letting people out of their contracts and get a completely new phone. Instead I have to send it off to service and go without for 3-4 days. This is not good business practice. Very unhappy customer and everyone I know will be informed not to buy LG.

    I have been disconnected multiple times, was able to reach the supervisors (the highest ranking people who can be reached by a customer) only twice. They did escalate my issue to the repair facility which means they sent an email but in the words on one of the representative himself the repair facility gets too many emails from all over US and might not be able to read it. This is the best they can do and there is no way for me to reach anyone higher up. I despair if I will ever get my phone back. The RA number for my repair order is RA: **.

    From day one I had a problem with my LG g3 cell phone. After numerous phone calls and many letters I finally got somewhere but it took months. First every person I spoke to was from India or Korea and was really hard to understand. Not to mention rude, lazy, and arrogant. After I finally got through and got my repair my cell phone came back with a crack in it caused by LG repair man. This was obvious because the crack was in the same spot underneath the screen where the part was replaced by LG.

    After weeks of trying to get through to somebody and get somewhere I found out nobody even filed a claim for me. Then I had to call many more times to get somewhere. I was told they filed a claim with FedEx. If you can believe this, they are asking for the entire price of my cell phone from FedEx. FedEx had nothing to do with this crack and the repair is only $100. So what is LG going to do with the rest of my money. Let me rephrase that what are they going to do with FedEx is money. This is fraud and they should be illegal. I will never deal with LG again because I will never buy another LG product all because their customer service is horrible outsource, rude, lazy, and extremely difficult to get anywhere with. Yes, my phone is still not fixed. Great job LG. That is definitely sarcasm. Your customer service is ruining the LG name.

    I purchased an LG Leon cell phone about 3 months ago. After about a month I received an update from LG, I was hesitant to update the phone as I have seen people have problems in the past with updates. After about a month I updated my phone anyway because I could not get rid of the icon for the update. Everything seemed to work okay until I sent some messages with pictures, I noticed some of the options were gone and worse yet when I am trying to add a photo to a site the option for photos is no longer there. The only option I have now, is to take a live photo or video which is ridiculous when you want to use a photo from the gallery.

    I called T-Mobile which is my service provider. After spending half an hour with the T-Mobile Tech I got no results. The tech said the problem is the update from LG. So I called LG and the LG technician confirmed the update problem. The LG technician said the update comes from Google and there is no fix for the problem until a new update arrives. LG can not give me a timeline for when they may have a possible update and I can not revert back to the old update. This is very frustrating and it renders my phone useless for some of the things that I need to do. Bear in mind that this phone is only 3 months old. My recommendation is do not buy an LG cell phone and if you already have, make sure you do not update it. Thanks for reading this.

Would be to send back to LG and have another G2 sent to me. Verizon person said the phone is 2 models old so the new phone would most likely be a rebuilt. Or 2. Use one of my upgrades to get a new phone. Why would I want to do either. 1. Get a third G2 when the other 2 failed, OR 2. Be forced to use an upgrade where I do not want to.

Functionality: Buttons on the back are difficult at best. Don't work sometimes and must push repeatedly. When I plug in headphones or aux jack, the phone thinks I am prompting for voice commands, so I cannot listen to any music with this phone, nor can I use my headset to talk with out the voice command interrupting with a repeated "please try again".

    When I was lucky enough to be able to use a headset or other listening device before the voice command interruptions, the audio volume was very inconsistent and would be very low and then very loud. The unlock/swipe function is inconsistent and sometimes takes several attempts. There is lots more, but the lack of the basic functionality to talk or listen with a headset is sending me out to the store to buy a new phone.
