Notification sound randomly stops after MM update... - Verizon LG G4

Every since updating to Marshmallow my notification sounds randomly stop working. Ringtone, UI, and all other sounds work. Often a restart will fix it for awhile(2-3 days). I didn't have this issue running Lollipop. Anyone else experience this and find a fix? Verizon says they are aware of the issue and are working on a fix(hopefully in 6.0.1). I have already FDR'd the phone twice now as well. Thanks for your consideration.

Strange music seek bar bug

I got a new m8 a few days ago and naturally I threw some music on it. No SD card. I get a bug where randomly my seek bar will indicated hours and be stuck. I can still seek on it but it won't move. This happens in every music player I tried (stock, Google, shuttle, poweramp) and I can't find a solution. No root no nothing phone is brand new. Could it be that a corrupted song was doing this? Please help it's annoying.
I believe it is just a 5.0.1 bug. Might be just specific to 5.0.1 on our M8s. Not sure if this is only non lollisense or if it occurs on GPE as well... all I know is that it is a known bug. Hasn't really bothered me much. What bothers me are the momentary slow loading I have in Play Music. Some times the pause button or next/previous buttons are unresponsive for like 10 seconds. THAT is super annoying.

I have EXACTLY the same issue!! I have had my M8 since launch last March, but this bug reared its ugly head when i updated to lollipop the other week. I find it very annoying too!! I have also created a post on this issue today. I've tried clearing cache memory etc but nothing has fixed it permanently.
for a temporary fix i find that if i run clean master it clears the bug, but it comes back later that day.
if you do manage to solve, please can you let me know too.
Same issue
I have the exact same issue too.
Htc One M8 unlocked version, no root, no nothing.
It happens with all music players too (even soundcloud).
So I don't think it's related to a music file.
It only happened after I updated to Android 5.0.
It's so annoying. If anyone knows a fix please share it!
I have this issue too i've tested Viper ,Maximus Insert Coin and even on Sky Dragon and i always have this bug. However the bug usually occures on .mp3 song not .m4a
i have another problem. sometimes when i want to play music it wont and i need to reset the cache of the music player or restart my phone befor it works again. I am stock rom and not unlocked or rooted. Until now i experienced this bug only under google play music, cause i love the design of it too much to change to another
So this issue is present on ALL Lollipop roms?! Can someone port over the music player from KitKat or something?
If you are S-Off, you can flash the H/K - Boomsound switcher. Choosing H/K fixes it. And it sounds better than Boomsound IMO.
You can also flash it if you are S-On and pick H/K, but you won't be able to flash the H/K ADSP. It should still fix the issue though.
So after further using the phone I don't get this bug when I have NUplayer checked in dev options. But that makes my phone register audio on all the time and it drains my juice so I use awesomeplayer and ignore the bug

[Q] Audio Skip

Has anyone noticed their music skipping? Poweramp/stock player. Its getting annoying as my g3 does it too. Is it an android problem or a phone issue? My phone is the h815; no root/bootloader is locked.
Update: I have emailed lg support and will hopefully get it dealt with. If its a phone fault I will just switch it for something else. This problem has persisted since the g3 and is just plain frustrating.
New update: I investigated my microsd card and have found there is a problem with it. When i transfer items from and to the card i get an io eror under Windows. I put my music onto a 64GB card and now the skipping appears to have disappeared. I was using a 128GB lexar card. I suppose the skipping could be from where the os cant read the file properly. It was doing it every minute or so.

FWIW, since lollipop I've had random music glitches when playing over bluetooth. This goes back to my HTC M8 as well. 4.4.4 no issues.... lollipop, random skipping/distortion. Usually most noticeable when the screen turns off/locks

Thanks for the response, I guess I'll just have to hope that the software developers find a way to deal with the issue. I'm glad its not tied to just lg.

I use Dogcatcher for podcasts during my commute. I have noticed the audio dropouts with Wifidirect/Miracast as well. This seems to happen multiple times per minute. As stated, 4.4.4 had no issues on my prior SGS4.

As I use Bluetooth streaming from my LG G4 everytime I get in the car, this problem really annoyed me. Like you, I had tried many different settings without luck. I noticed these issues mostly in Doggcatcher and Spotify, but also heard drops in waze and maps. My issue was due to the location settings.
In location settings, I disabled wifi and only enabled GPS. I also use quite a bit of Tasker and leave the screen dimmed while connected to Bluetooth as the mirracast that I hacked into my car won't display with the screen off.
The other setting that may help is set in a program called carhome ultra, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=spinninghead.carhome which is a great car dashboard app. The setting will slow the GPS update rate. My phone is stock and unrooted.
I hope this fix works for you. If you have any questions, reply to this thread.

Desperate! Phone Sound not working

Hi there,
I have been using the CloudyG3 2.5 ROM on my G3 (D-855) for the past month and something strange is happening to the phone. I must admit, the phone fell of a couple of days ago, but this shouldn't have any relation to my issues. All of a sudden, the sound just stopped working everywhere, even when I use the Music Player it gives me a Playback error and the Messaging and Phone Apps crash all the time. Even ''system'' crashes. Then I decided to use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 and flashed a stock ROM. This did not solve the issues with sound and Messaging and Phone crashing all the time. I have a SIM card in the phone but it doesn't allow me to make phone calls, it just hangs. Weirdly enough, I get mobile internet and full bars of reception everywhere I go. WiFi also works fine.
Please help a brother out, I really don't know what to do at this point!
Kind Bump
Tried different stock and custom ROMS, but the same processes and apps crash, mainly System process and com.android.phone.
Anyone have a clue? I am really stuck as I can't use my phone for anything.

[HELP!] "Unfortunately Bluetooth share has stopped"

Somebody HELP!!!!!!!!
I'm running Resurrection Remix LP v5.5.8 on my T-Mobile Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919). I love this ROM, but I'm having a persistent problem with Bluetooth crashing, within minutes of starting up. This a consistent problem, not even remotely intermittent - happens every single time I try to turn on Bluetooth - it shuts itself off, refuses to turn back on again, and on occasion, gives me the error message "Unfortunately Bluetooth share has stopped."
I have tried clearing the Bluetooth share app cache and data to restart - it will then turn back on, but soon turns back off.
The problem was bad enough that I took RR off my phone and tried some other ROMs, including basic CM12.1. I came back to RR because the other ROMs had more critical issues, but they did help me eliminate causes of my problem, in that I didn't have Bluetooth issues with them like I do with RR, and I was still running all the same apps, same devices I was trying to attach, etc.
I've also played with several of the settings in the Kernel Aduitor, including completely shutting off the task killer. No difference - problem persists.
I also tried some of the apps on Google Play that say they're supposed to cure problems like this. Fixed nothing.
Please help. Is there an alternative something that I can flash - Bluetooth driver, different kernel, something, that can fix this issue once and for all?
Got the same problem. Android V6 RR Remix. Any suggestions?
Seems to be a consistent MM ROM issue, currently. Some seem to work better than others on some phones.
Keeping bluetooth working on the S4 seems to be "dark arts". Cyanogenmod has historically had much problems with this too. Some nightlies are okay, then others cause BT to crash. Some don't work at all.
Anyone have any resolution to this issue? I'm having the exact same symptom, but I'm on a different phone.
Note II / T-889, Conch Republic. Might've been from a radio update I did a while back, trying different ones now.

You might give this AOKP 6 MM ROM a try:

Users are reporting that after a week of testing the Bluetooth seems to be working rather well.

LG G3 Touch Feedback and System Sound not working

Hello XDA,
I have reviewed everything that is out there on the internet and have not been able to resolve my issue.
I have LG G3 Rogers version, unlocked, never rooted. It used to work fine before. I started noticing my Youtube videos from the app stopped playing giving an error message (Error code is different every time) Youtube videos from the browser play but without sound, Instagram videos/live streams/stories (anything that has sound; IG videos with no sound when posted by the user works fine) stopped playing, spotify wouldn't play music but the timer of the track would keep going. This is with headphones, without headphones. Doesn't matter. Then when I restart my phone, the issue is completely fixed, for some time until it starts again. The way I know it will mess up is my pattern unlock sound goes out first. Then my lock sound and eventually certain key taps are not recognized. But again, when I restart the phone, everything is fine. I use Action Launcher 3, I've tried without it. I have factory reset my phone and I am running Marshmallow.
Any ideas? Much appreciated.
Thank you.

If you have been using it for more than three years in a row, The android version wears out... (gets old)...
you might have to check for system updates or (in rare cases (or) you cannot tolerate kinda case) you can flash another rom on your LG G3.
Android ROMs give you a better battery life (which also eventually wears out after three years of usage) and better performance...
Hello,
I got a new battery about 6 months ago so not so worried about that part. Is there any to troubleshoot and deduce what could be causing this issue?
Hello,
Quick update: I have not had any issues with the phone for about 2-3 days now. I had pattern unlock set on my device with rain dew drops as the dots. Since I've removed the dew drops, this issues has stopped. Currently I have knock code set on as screen lock. I will now try pattern unlock again, but with basic dots only to see if this occurs again. Keep you posted.
