I bought secondhand G5 today for 169$. It's the Verizon VS987. It's on it way to me and i'm afraid that it requires unlock code every time i do a hard reset. The phone is unlocked version though.

Steven, 17 Nov 2017Any one know how to fix LG G5 screen burn in/ shadow issues?
I used an app called Blue Light Filter. I had it at 5% which tinted the screen a tiny bit red. Not noticeable. If iwanted to view movies or photos I would disable.
But now after 14months with the phone I have to use at 9% Its too red. I can't stand it. So I honestly think always on display is a major reason for this. Unlike Samsung, G5 has to light up whole screen to use always on.
So I bought a S8+ for cheap and although it is gorgeous I really really really miss the ability to change out the battery. 0 to 100% in less than a minute.
I love my G5 so im going to keep G5 as backup and try other apps to deal with the screen retention issue. Good luck.

AnonD-517553, 21 Nov 2017Which version you are ?.....this had been solved by softwareWhat version do you mean? Software or the phone model? Software I run the lastest Oct 2017 patch. Handset model H-850 (Europe version).
Regarding the screen burn issue, I too had it and software did the trick for most of the part (so I said 'metigate' & not 'solve'). You should hide navigation buttons for all apps and use the screen filter app. It helps. As my phone was in warranty, I opted for screen replacement later.

Steven, 17 Nov 2017Any one know how to fix LG G5 screen burn in/ shadow issues? Download screen filter app from haxor industry & set the filter to 88%. You can then metigate the screen burn in issue. Also there are apps which remove the burn in by making an array of colors run for sometime. If you want a permanent solution, then ask for screen replacement. But Screen Filter set to 88% should work fine.

Hello LG G5 users,
Few hours back I got an update (Oct patch) of 65 MB in Germany after which all sounds stopped working. Tones, loudspeaker, etc all shut. Anyone having a similar problem? if yes kindly let me know.

AnonD-715588, 14 Nov 2017I want to buy LG G5. tell me about its speed n sensor. it will give the same performance in 20... moreI got mine July of 2016 and its still going however I had to do 2 hardware repairs, one for the charge port (stopped working and couldn't boot phone), one for the power button (stopped registering), and one mod for the GPS. All LG G series phones I have seen have an issue with GPS. I repair phones for a job so stuff like that is nothing to fix. However this phone apart from those issues is extremely fast still and love it. Its why I fixed the issues, I have 3 phones but my G5 is still my go to phone and one of them is the new Samsung A5

AnonD-517553, 08 Nov 2017G5 is better on all terms excpt gps it is weakThere is a way to fix that I have done it, I still use my G5 and have had it for over a year now. I had to fix it recently because it broke down but when it was down I didn't realise how good or fast it was until I had to use my iPhone 6 lol however it does have issues still that have been there since day one, like GPS (fixed), Screen Burn-in issues, over heating, and power button wouldn't register (fixed). I'm a cell phone tech so its easy to fix issues like these. The GPS is a simple fix, it involves you taking your phone apart though, there is a video on YouTube on how to do it. Its just 3 pins on the motherboard that need to be lifted to connect with the flex connectors that are attached to the frame. Look up a video to do it, use that video at your own risk though and it does void warranty.
