camera app crash and reboot phone - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
I rooted my G4 ( h815, rooted v10b ) with this tricks : http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
All was perfect, until one day, my camera sometimes didn't launch and make reboot my phone.
So I decided to update my phone to MM. ( so I unrooted the phone and update it with lg bridge )
But the probelm is still here under MM !
There is 3 sort of possibilities when I launch the camera :
- the camera work
- the camera app crash
- the phone reboot
After a reboot of the phone, the camera always work. But after sometimes it crash again and I need to reboot.
What do you think of that ?
Thanks.

Same here
I am having exactly the same problem.
I had not rooted my phone, it started happening after the MM upgrade.
Another upgrade came out recently and it seems to happen far less so I am convinced it is software related.
Did you have any luck with finding a solution.
Thanks

Hello,
I didn't have another upgrade, I'm on v20d.
The problem is still here and now it happens really often.
I'm sending it now for reparation, but I hope they will fix it and not just hard reset the phone....

[Q] S4 mini rebooting very often!

Hi all!
First of all thanks for your work..it's awesome!!thanks to you i enjoyed my s plus until some days ago it has broken..very sad day
However i decided to move on with a more modern cel, so i decided for a s4 mini.
But since the beginning i've had lot of problems..
My phone after an original update from samsung started to freeze and reboot..more and more often..i read it could be an issue with original update so i decided to mod my phone since i've had great improvements with my old s plus..
first i installed cm11 but the phone keep rebooting and rebooting ..so i installed cm12 with android l..but the problem is still here!!
the more my phone became hot the more it reboot..it's unusable and i don't know what to do..i'm also begin to doubt it's a hw problem
my warranty is gone with all this mods..so what to do? any others has this kind of problem?
thanks if yo want to answer
People encountering this should perform a factory reset and wipe everything from the phone.
Then, perform a clean install of whichever rom you wish to use, without any additional apps.
I recently encountered an issue with Apex Launcher and a recent update. Android keep crashing and soft rebooting often.. only after a few days did I realise the launcher was the issue. Since I uninstalled the app the phone hasnt restarted once!
Mine restarts after i turn on Mobile Data + GPS for navigation..
It works for a minute and restarts.
I don't know where the problem is either. I tried to flash cm10, 11.. stock 4.2 / 4.4 and nothing seems to get me rid of the problem

"Camera can't connect" error message after OTA update to Lollipop

Guys,
I received and installed OTA update for my LG G3 D855 (2/16gb) to V20E-eur-XX couple of days ago.
Phone is NOT rooted.
I'm not happy with update. Everything seems to be lagging more and more and on top of that, I can't start camera at all. When I tap onto Camera icon, I get "Camera can't connect" error.
Please, help me, I'm very mad on LG right now.
Thank you in advance.

Just wipe data/factory reset it. Hope it helps you. If not root and install a custom rom like S3V3N !
Thx, scamex. Both proposed solutions are valid, but I would like to hear some other, bc factory reset is a pain and I don't know if that'll work.
On the other side, I don't want to root.
same issue here. after taking few pictures and video. it suddenly says cant connect to camera even i switched to google camera.
i just restarted the phone and the camera now works.

Camera won't focus after downgrade to LP

Hey guys,
I got my G4 H815 delivered with MM pre-installed a few months ago. I decided to downgrade to LP to root the phone without unlocking the bootloader. Everything worked like a charm, except the Camera won't focus anymore at all (no matter what app), the manual focus does not work either. I already did multiple factory resets (removed root, tried a different LP version) and cleared the cache for the camera app.
So after nothing worked and I worried my camera got a hardware defect, I returned to Marshmallow, and yes, the focus works perfectly fine once again. So the hardware does work. After that I tried an older LP Update, but same result. So I flashed MM for the second time tonight, and ofc it works on MM...
However, I would prefer to have a rooted (but locked) phone. Is there anything you guys could think of that causes that behavior? As I said, I got my H815 with MM pre installed!
Thanks for your help!
Any ideas?
DO factory reset ! hard reset !

hi !
-the firmware update is to fix errors and improve the phone a bit. there are several videos on youtube that show the focus problem of g4. focus is slow. mine was with MM too so i don't have any personal experience on that problem.
-yes you can root without unlocking. unlocking the bootloader is something you are gonna do to install a custom bootloader or custom recovery.
Also search better this forum. there are custom roms you can install and keep your bootloader untouched
Sorry for bringing up such an old thread, but have you found any fixes? Im having the exact same problem right now.
Same here, I was forced to go back to MM as a result, but i miss having root so much

[D855 32 GB] Reboot problems (brick or hardware defect?)

Hello guys,
I managed again to brick my phone.
I flashed Fulmics as I wanted to swap from those not fully stable nougat roms. Well, I have no idea what caused my problem - Fulmics run without prolbems for a 2 or 3 days including xposed etc.
Then today I changed my ChromePie options and that's when the reboots began. I don't know if this the real cause was though.
So I tried to flash another rom but always got random reboot even in recovery after few minutes/seconds. So I went all the way back to stock rom (4.4.2) with LG Flash tool - which worked after a few tries. Then I installed MM rom via .kdz file and flash tool 2014, which also worked after a few more tries. But then the reboots started again. Can't say if the 4.4.2 rom was without boots because I updated to 6.0 quite quickly.
The strange thing is that after some reboots phone won't boot again and I have to take and leave out the battery for some time to boot the phone again.
Any solutions for my problems?
Best regards
..bumped into the same 1/2 year ago. Didn't want to put to much effort so,..went to stock and back, worked for me.
Good luck.

Which stock and how did you go back?
As mentioned I already went back to stock but the issue kept occuring.
Hi, got the same problem with my G3
wi fi and bluetooth didn't work and phone loop rebooted
Here below the steps I followed to solve
1) First attempt (didn't solve): had cloudy rom, got back to stock official but still rebooting, tried fulmics and other rom but problem persisted.
2) second attempt (didn't solve): went back to stock and changed battery (found somewhere in internet), now I have a brand new battery but a phone still loop rebooting
3) third attempt (SOLVED): found that the wi-fi / bluetooth chip (one for both) copuld have unwelded and solved so (it appears I can't post outside link, delete spaces to have the correct link):
youtube .com / watch?v=1zWpzYh2DPI&t=15s"
youtube .com/ watch?v=6_0jzp65eLY&t=256s
Now i'm on fulmics and no more loop reboot
Hope you can solve
[sorry for my english]

used flashtool
have to say restoring and/or flashing isn't always that stable. I've experienced it sometimes needs a 2nd try.
Hopefully it isn't a hardware issue in your case.
So I tried all of oyur suggestions but nothing seems to work.
On the contrary I ended up in a status where I can't even flash a new firmware.
In LG Flash Tool 1.8.1 I get the error
"Donwload Fail!!!"
PID: NULL
IMEI: NULL

DLL: D855
BIN: LGD855AT.....

In LG Flash Tool 2014 (flashing MM with kdz file) phone shuts down in middle of process.
But I can still access Download Mode.
No more ideas?
I really think I finally broke my phone... But the fact that I can still access download mode keeps my hopes up.
So, after 2 months I just tried to reawaken my phone. Still the exact same problem. It just keeps shutting down aber some while, but just when I start flashing something. If it stays connected to computer whitout doing anything it can stay on for like ever.
Can anyone confirm that this could be a hardware defect?
