This is a bug in the June update. Discussed on reddit. Hopefully google will fix it soon. I had the same problem. I could not get it to work.
If you find a work around post here.
Thanks.

Thanks... I don't log into guest networks that require using a captive portal very often. If I find something I'll let you know but will probably just wait for the next update and retest.

The workaround that worked for me was typing 1.1.1.1 in Chrome. This brought me to the hotel wifi login page.

This only works for me if I go into airplane mode and turn WiFi on...
That said, I got the July update and the problem still exists.

FWIW... I after the August 2019 update this was fixed, and it works fine in Android 10.

Wimax connects fine but will not load web pages

First let me say i'm sorry that i didn't find information regarding this issue by searching but I cant seem to find information describing the exact problem i'm having.
I have nand unlocked and while i can connect to wimax, i can not load any pages to completion. The browser progress bar moves but will never finish. I'm about ready to do the start over method. I know it worked at some point, but way to many things have changed since i knew it worked. My MAC appears correct when i do the wimax_mtd in terminal emulator. Does anybody have any insight into my particular problem? Thanks for any help...
I am having this same problem on the most recent Fresh. The page loads very quickly but the progress bar never finishes.
This happens only while connected on wimax. FWIW, I'm pulling up to 13mbps downlink.
It's because of the HOSTS file and/or using AdFree, open said program, and switch from use 127.0.0.1 to use BTC IP

Most recent versions of AdFree have removed BTC IP (it was slamming their servers).
You can try 0.0.0.0 for a custom IP and see how that goes.
can you explain more in detail

First, do you use the program "AdFree"?
I tried 0.0.0.0 and still seems to be doing the same thing, but not as frequently. Any other ideas?
I'm having the exact same problem and it's driving me crazy. It will get 80% full and just stop. It stops so long that it kicks the browser back to 3g to complete the page since 4g stalls.

Theoretical fix for Wifi/3G priority bug

This bug has been going on since 8107 (at least). For those that don't know, the bug is that the phone will continue to use the data/cellular connection even when you're connected by Wi-Fi.
I have noticed something which may explain the behavior.
I'm with Orange in the UK and they have a website that can only be accessed if you're using the data connection - accelerator.orange.co.uk. It's basically a web app for controlling data compression.
Similarly I have a website that can only be accessed on my wireless network - 192.168.0.1 (my router's GUI).
Now, I've just noticed that if I turn on wifi and try to connect to the orange.accelerator.co.uk site I will get a loading bar for about 15 seconds, after which it will display the correct page. Obviously its using the mobile data connection. The reason must be that the phone considers the wifi connection to have timed out, so its uses the data connection.
This works the other way. Immediately after accessing the orange.accelerator.co.uk page I entered by router's IP address. I got the loading bar for 15 seconds again, eventually getting the router's GUI.
This makes me wonder whether tweaking the timeout setting in internet explorer may provide a temporary fix. I know I have seen a timeout setting somewhere in the registry before, but I can't remember where. Can someone help me out?
Found it myself.
HKEY_CU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Settings
TimeoutInMilliSeconds, value= 120000
There's also a TimerInMilliSeconds, also value 120000. Anyone know what this is?
I was having this problem before, but Tango appears to have fixed this issue. I no longer get the timeouts you described on wifi.

You may not be getting any, but it's not far fetched that someone will get a timeout with WiFi - WiFi may just stop working for a minute there, but you still want the phone to use it.
You can close this thread now, this issue has been fixed and the fix is included in Tango

Can't view the forum at home.

The strange thing is when I try to see the forum at home - I get huge lags and the forum looks as if they do not connect the CSS styles. In Chrome, Mozilla, Opera is the same.
Switching on the XDA2010 theme doesn't help.
Can be a problem in the Internet provider? How can I fix this?
Might be a problem with our CDN provider. What do you get when you visit this url? http://debug-14.netdna-cdn.com/

Sounds like it might be a problem with your computer, firewall/router, or ISP. I can open that page fine. It says "You are hitting the NetDNA New York Datacenter"

I get the same thing at work and phone. At home I'm not getting anything. And earlier (about a couple of weeks ago) forum worked fine.
So strange. I would understand if the forum is not open at all. But it opens, but very slowly and very crooked looks.
Something must have changed within your browser, router, or firewall settings. Since the rest of us are having no problems it has to be something in your computer. Flush your DNS, reboot your router, and check your firewall settings. Also try different browsers and see if you get the same results. You can also try OpenDNS, which will solve the problem if it lies with your ISP.

The previous issue was being caused by some ISP Dns servers. Often these kinds of issues can be alleviated by switching your DNS to something better

I have gotten good results from Google's DNS servers. 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. We even point to them from my work instead of the ISP's DNS servers.
Level3's DNS servers are ok too, 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.1.

Wifi Calling Error

I am just curious if anyone else is having trouble with wifi calling after the update? I can't get mine to connect at all. Sometimes nothing ever happens and sometimes I get an error message ER081.. I googled it and only the Note 4 I believe is reported of having this issue and it was fixed by doing something to the router. I don't think that is the case for me because Ive reset them twice. I reset my phone too. I called TMo and they're clueless. Any ideas??

Just chiming in to say I'm having identical issues. Tried multiple wifi routers (work, friend's place, etc), none work. Unfortunately I don't have any advice beyond what you already mentioned (factory reset).
Questions:
Was your update OTA? I used LG mobile support tool.
Do you think re-downloading/installing the update would be worth trying? My first thought is no. Basically if 99% of functions are working then it seems unlikely there was an error in download/install steps...

So I found out it was my modem from Time Warner Cable. I ran some speed tests on my wifi and it was running extremely slow. I was still getting decent internet speeds on all my devices, but I guess it was slow enough to mess up wifi calling. It turns out they upgraded the firmware around the same time I reflashed 5.0. It was more of a matter of coincidence. Try to have your internet provider factory reset your modem and re-tune the wifi channels.
I have same issue too.
I used LG Mobile support tool too.
my sd card wasn't recognized by g3 at first, so I format the card and now it works.. I just need to fix this wifi calling, and heavy battery usage...
also, when I go check setting, it's pretty much stuck on enabling... and when I mess with VoLTE toggle, sometimes I get error message, 99
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just got off phone with T-Mobile, tech support said, it's known issue, and temp fix is to get OTA via text msg and engineers are working on the backend to fix the issue.

I am having the same problem with the wi-fi calling....if anyone find out the solution please post
I got the problem resolved
I had the similar issue on my LG G3 after Android 5.0 upgrade. This is because of wifi calling upgrade from 1.0 to 2.0 included in this android update.
I called T-Mobile support and they reset the APN settings over the phone. Issue is fixed now. Great!:highfive:
Just call T Mobile support at 611 and you will get your issue resolved. ( Don't play around with your home router! )

Well when I called 611 they tried everything and I still had the issue, they were about to do a device trade in because they couldn't figure it out. Might work for some, not me though.
If any of you want to roll back to kitkat I found a website that showed how to do it and it worked. I am getting alerts to upgrade but will wait til the bugs are fixed
I can't post the link because I haven't made 10 posts yet but if you are interested message me for the link and then maybe you can post if you posted more than 10 times
i called tmobile about this they said LG is aware of it and is working on a fix, when i asked them about hte APN they said nothing they could do on their end....
Just curious, is wifi calling working for anyone after 5.0? I've tried a bunch of APNs no luck. Thanks

Yeah that's what I had to do. I had Time Warner factory reset it. I have the Tmo cellspot router hooked up to the TWC modem and it wasn't working initially either. After they reset it and tuned the signal mine started working with no hiccups.
Try turning wifi off and wifi calling off. Then turn wifi on and wifi calling back on then see if it will work..

I spoke to T Mobile today concerning the WIFI calling not enabling. They stated that they are aware and have been working with LG to get a fix. But there is no time frame for the fix. However, I have a work around that helps me out.
1. Go to settings >> Networks and tap Airplane Mode.
2. Wait for Airplane mode to enable, and, wifi states "Connections not allowed".
3. This is important! Read carefully. otherwise this will not work. While Airplane mode is enabled, enable wifi. Wait! When Airplane Mode goes from being gray to bold then disable Airplane mode.
4. Wait a few seconds and wifi calling will come one.
Mine did stopped working as soon as i upgraded to LP. Went into T-Mobile and got a new sim.

Using AdGuard as Private DNS Causes Random Soft Reboots ***May 2019-*NOT*Fixed***

There are a couple of threads on this already here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/help/experiencing-random-restarts-t3895706
and here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/help/soft-rebooting-multiple-times-day-t3887222
but I felt that the issue needed a thread title which clearly spelled out the problem as it seems a lot of us are affected. Thanks to the original posters, I was able to solve my own problem but only after a useless RMA.
The good news is that Google is aware of the problem and Issue Tracker has it flagged as fixed. Hopefully it will be included in Monday's Feb update, but no ETA is listed in the Tracker thread.
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/122141885
And, unfortunately, I can confirm that the problem was not fixed with the February update.
Good idea to create this thread
So far so good using Adguard with the March update. Almost 5 hours and no reboots.
Anyone else? Hopefully it was addressed with today's update.

Not so good here, tried adguard private dns today and had the soft reboot within 2 hours.
Noticed the same on my Pixel 2 XL, but not on my Note 9 with AdGuard's DNS. Looks like a Pixel-specific issue to me, not an Android 9 issue
I continue to have had no soft or hard reboots since the March update. Adguard is working just fine for me.
And now I just had a soft reboot. I'm attributing it to AdGuard, as I never had a soft reboot before altering Private DNS settings. But it does seem much better. We'll see what the next few days hold.
*****EDIT**** And another one overnight. Problem definitely still there. I'm turning AdGuard back off.
Ugh, so this still hasn't been fixed on Pixel devices, I guess.

Anyway, a company that make most of it's money selling ads, I'm not surprise they take their time to fix this.
Still not fixed with April update on Pie.
Can anyone with Q give it a try and report back?
Try DNS66 instead. Same functionality, no issues.
Been running with private DNS set to AdGuard for about a week now......and no reboots. So I think it's been fixed.
If anyone on the May update is still having problems, please post back.

Just posting to confirm your findings. Been using AdGuard DNS for about a week now as my private DNS, and have had no reboots.
Sent from my Google Pixel 2 XL using XDA Labs
Well, no sooner had I changed the title and said it was fixed than Cliff posted about his reboots......and I thought, OK, isolated.....then tonight I had two reboots myself. Thus the title changed back to *NOT* fixed.
But I will say at least it seems to be WAY better, at least tolerable while weighing benefits vs. reboots. But I couldn't fit *KINDA* fixed in the title.
After the June update, unfortunately a reboot within an hour.
I thought it was just me , I rooted and moved to using ad-away
Moved to Android Q beta 4 a good week ago, AdGuard private dns enabled, works fine. No reboots.
