in a lot of g5, gps fail due to small bump or swallowed battery.

the solution is easy, is there on youtube. it was a design flaw .

in another hand is fantastic phone, no issues.

        Using another blue filter app called s-Filter LITE and hoping my image retention problems finally go away. Set the opacity to 15% and the color to black. Started using the gray wallpaper again. Haven't seen it returned but it's only been like 8 hours.

        The image retention gets really annoying when watching videos in full screen especially YouTube. It's weird because I actually didn't have the issue on my current G5 until ten months later when my previous G5 and V20 showed it after three.

        My V20 actually never showed image retention after using a blue filter app but my current G5 did. I actually really love my G5. It's the two issues of image retention and the random overheating is why I no longer put it tops as my favorite. I also enjoy Android Pie more and Snapdragon 835 & 845 run much cooler over 820.

        This is a very underrated smartphone especially one from 2016. It's probably a smartphone I will never sell because I still need that IR blaster. Every time I see Samsung brag about their wide-angle camera on their S10 in ads, I cringe knowing LG was the one who first brought it out for their G5. I hear the next iPhone will use wide-angle too.

        The year of 2016 was the last time I felt LG was still unique by using removable batteries, matte backs, IR blaster, and headphone jack. Now LG is like everybody else. Bringing wide-angle was just gravy. Now all these other copycats brag they have wide-angle too. Never forget LG G5 was the first to offer it but everyone still bashes its failed modular design.

            I think LG G5 is the best Cell phone of its era. Any one can play 2048 Cupcakes free game online.

              Hi all.
              I have to say that this is a marvelous phone. Everything works as it should. Only downside is the backlight. On the sun i can't see "shit", i have to use shade and really bulge my eyes. But everything else is really very very good. The finger scanner works awesome not crapy as on samsung, actually is like on BlackBerry.

                What up People said regarding GPS performance is true. GPS in this phone is a crap. Bad maybe this is even not the most important thing. I've been using Phone for my Everyday communication in a place where there is no strong signal facing the situation when quite often no communication was possible. Recently I've put the same sim card to another Phone and this time it was a Chinese ZTE phone blade A452. On this phone I get quite good signal all the time. Before LGG5 I had LGG4 G3. All Of them soon broke down. I will newer buy LG phone again.

                    Best phone I've ever owned. I love the fact that I can buy a battery on Amazon for £15 if I need one and a screen isn't a whole lot more, and I can replace them myself.
                    GPS doesn't work well on these phones but everything else is great.
                    Unfortunately now I need more RAM and LG seem to have dropped out of the phone market, I guess I'll have to look elsewhere. :(

                      LG might be the first to apply the idea of modular smartphone, but it was Motorola who kept it going. Pity that LG dropped that idea for the G6, otherwise we would have a worthy competitor for the Motorola Z series lineup.

                          LG G5 is still my favorite smartphone of all-time. I'm aware of the flaws but it's still my favorite.

                                I miss the phone materials used from 2016. Tired of glass backs.

                                I can't believe 2016 is now considered the good ol' days.

                                  The only reason why I can never put my Essential Phone over my LG G5 as my favorite phone ever is because while it has my favorite software, I don't like the comfort in my hand and the lack of real essentials like headphone jack, microSD slot, removable battery, and even bonuses like wide-angle cam and IR blaster.

                                  I know the LG G5 is so hated. I get it. It's not perfect by any means. But man, I love that phone. Mine is still on Marshmallow and it's still smooth. For some reason, it takes forever for my Essential to grap my Married With Children thumbnails when viewed on QuickPic. It's little details like that which is why can I never put my Essential over my G5.

                                  My G5 is practically retired. I'll probably store it in my drawer for a few months. But to type on, it's easily my favorite and for music as well. The overheating went away. The image retention is rarely. And my only real, real issue is battery life. That's why I practically turned off the battery %.

                                  I know a ton of people hate the G5 or just hate LG altogether. But I'll always love the LG G5. The first to introduce the wide-angle can three years ago and everyone is copying it now.

                                        There is a flood of H850 from China for under A$200. I've got one. Condition, hardware, camera seems excellent. But the software included Android security patch is Jan 2018, no updates available. I attempted to unlock (to load latest LineageOS on it), you have to submit data to developer.lge.com to get bootloader.
                                        LG spit the error on me - the phone appeared to be LGH850.ISR - Isralian model (Even though Chinese sale it as EUROPE). And as it turns out all phones for Israel are OEM locked, no way around. Unfortunately, you do not see subversion unless you submit ID to LG. I've sent it back as I do not want a phone which is hackable by anyone.
