REGARDING THE BATTERY ON THE LG V40:
When you use the phone fresh out of the box or a factory reset, there's a weird initial battery drain which has 2 reasons and both are software related, and guess what? Both can be FIXED:
1- There are around 300 system apps out of the box, LOTS of them running in the background. I disabled most of them from settings and for the ones with greyed out "Disable" button, I used Universal Android Debloater app on PC.
2- It's the Android system itself building caches and running optimization tasks and processes in the background, causing additional battery drain, especially in the idle/standby state. It happens on almost every phone after using the phone for the first time, flashing a firmware or doing a factory reset. Depending on how many apps are installed and how big they are, it can take several days or weeks for the OS to finish the optimization job. But here's the thing: you can force it to be done in minutes, rather than days or weeks. And for that, you need to run these 2 commands using ADB tools on PC:
adb shell cmd package compile -m everything -f -a
adb shell cmd package bg-dexopt-job
These tips apply on any phone, but on the LG V40 the difference is MIND BLOWING! It got a mediocre battery score in GSMArena's review, but after applying these tips and modifications, the battery will perform WAY BETTER! It's 3300 mAh but it would feel like it's a 4000 mAh battery on a bloated phone. If you use it for stuff like social media, it can easily achieve 7-8 hours of SOT. And that's with mobile data. I managed to achieve 10 hours with Wi-Fi. And the standby drain? It's almost ZERO! Just apply those tips and PROFIT!

For recording videos: Mcpro24fps
For taking pictures: Gcam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.6-Fu24_5Lens-02c8.3-A10.apk
Both can access the telephoto, plus they provide more features and better quality than LG's default apps.

Please guys...check if your LG V40's Telephoto Lens( the camera lens on the right side if you are viewing the screen) is working. You can cover the telephoto lens with your finger and change the camera mode and see if the telephoto works. Mine seems as if it's not working.

I had this Sprint LG v40 thinq since Jan. 2019. I really like the phone. It functions very well for what I use it for (phone calls, texts, internet, and games). No need to get another phone, although it runs only on Android 9, it won't upgrade to 10. I'll keep it til it stops running or get another LG phone or something.

Anjan, 27 Oct 2021You can always use powerbank to charge your phone. I don't want to buy a phone with anemic battery backup and provide an excuse to charge it via a powerbank.
