LG G3 Problems: 2 Tricks to Improve LG G3 Performance Without Root

Once again we have to thank the guys at XDA Developers, which in a disinterested way present us solutions to the most common problems that we can find on our devices long before the brands themselves.

In this case, I am going to present you two solutions to improve the performance of the LG G3 without having to be root users. A solution that will allow us activate the brightness to the maximum without limitations by temperature, and another, which will allow us eliminate the obnoxious lag suffered by the LG G3 when it starts to heat up, and that is because these last generation terminals that have so many resources, gazillion thousand pixel cameras and 4k recording, in case you didn't know, they get really hot.

First of all I have to warn you that although the guys from XDA in their forum explain that it is a totally safe process, I have to tell you that no two terminals are the same, even though they are of the same brand and model. With this I want to tell you that do not be afraid to do these two tips that I am going to give you next, although once applied, you will have to be aware of your terminal and make sure that it does not overheat excessively. When I say excessively, I mean that it does not heat up more than it is now heating up, in that case, you would have to reverse the process, leaving everything as it was at the beginning and the matter resolved.

First tip or Mod, how to activate the brightness to the maximum without temperature limits

We enter the dialer of our LG G3 and mark this code that will display a service menu from which we will have to activate the two mods that I am going to tell you next;

The code to dial is 3845 # * 855 #, once marked, a service screen will be displayed where we will have to look for the option High Temperature Property OFF and we activate it by clicking on it. Once this is done, we will have to restart the terminal turning it off completely and waiting a minute or so before turning it on, once we have turned it on and the lock screen or PIN screen is shown, we will leave it in rest without touching anything another minute, then we can unlock it and place the personal PIN.

With this trick we get that the brightness is not reduced as soon as the terminal detects that it is starting to heat up.

Second tip or Mod, how to avoid lag when the terminal gets hot

For prevent the processor speed from being significantly reduced When the terminal starts to heat up, causing the Lag that so many people are talking about about the LG G3, we will have to reuse the previous code and look in the hidden settings menu that is shown to us, the option Thermal Daemon Mitigation OFF, which we will have, as we did previously, activate by clicking on it.

As in the option for activate screen brightness without temperature limitations, we will have to restart the terminal by turning it off completely and waiting a minute before turning it on again, and in the same way, once turned on, we will leave it another minute without touching anything at all, even without unlocking the screen or putting our PIN code.

With these two simple tricks we will already have our LG G3 with maximum brightness without reducing each time you notice an excess of temperature, as well as the normal speed of our processor quad-core without overheating.

To finish tell you that these codes have been tested by myself on the LG G3 terminal from my wife and they work perfectly, so much so that I have not noticed a higher heating than the terminal already had before activating these Mods.

To finish telling you that for now we have these two tricks to get more out of this sensational LG terminal than in the latest updates received, the company has screwed up well shit. Let's hope they get to work and solve it with another update via OTA as soon as possible.

Note: The code shown here is functional for LG G3 international model D855To get the different codes for other LG G3 models, go through the official XDA thread.

My LG G3 restarts by itself

Than the LG reboot itself It can be due to many things, most of them coinciding with random blackouts. But we can also try a solution that we found in the AT&T forums:

1. We open the Google Play Store.
2. We touch Menu / My applications. Applications with available updates are marked with "Update".
3. We touch on Google Play Services.
4. We touch Menu and check the box next to Auto-update or "Auto-update."

If this does not work, a good idea would be to do point by point what is described in the following section: "The LG G3 turns itself off".

The LG G3 turns itself off

One problem that we can find with our LG G3 is that it decides shut down on its own when it still has battery power. If we frequently experience this problem, we can fix it by doing the following:

Put the battery back

It may seem silly, but we are going to eliminate all possibilities. That a device turns off can be due to a bad state of its battery, and the first thing we can do wrong if a battery is removable is to put it so don't make good contact. This is the easiest to check, so we will remove the battery, we will put it in checking that everything is in its place and then we will check if our problem has been solved.

Disable location services

There are users who have reported that they have managed to avoid automatic blackouts with just disable location services of the LG G3. To do so we only have to:

1. We open the device settings.
2. We touch on Location.
3. We deactivate the switch.

Keep in mind that, if we do this, we can't get our position with our mobile, which, for example, will prevent us from using any GPS navigator or recording our activities with Strava or any other sports app, or the route we have traveled, calculating the speed, etc., to be more exact.

Update the LG G3 operating system

When LG found out about its G3 random shutdown problem, released an update software, so updating the phone might fix our problems. We do so:

1. Let's go to the settings.
2. We tap on «About the device».
3. We touch on Software Update and, if there is an update, we install it from here.

Remove the SD card

Sometimes a bad SD card can cause problems. It is not the most common but, as with the battery, we can try to remove the SD card and check if the problem has gone away with it.

Restore the device

Just as a bad SD card can cause problems, corrupted software can also cause problems. By "corrupted" we do not mean that it is manipulated, but that something is not working as well as it should. A practice that can solve many problems is to restore the device, something that we will achieve by following these steps:

1. We go to the Terminal Settings.
2. We tap on Backup and Reset.
3. We played on Reinstatement factory.
4. Finally, we touch OK to confirm.

Battery problem?

There is nothing like a good short circuit to cause a blackout. That our LG G3 turns off randomly may be due to a bad battery, so a good solution might be to change it.

Before changing it, yeah we know someone with another LG G3, we can check if your battery works well in our device. If it does, we know that the problem is with our battery and that the solution is to change it for a new one.

My LG G3 heats up

Another fairly common problem but, like everything in life, we can try to do several things to solve it, such as the following:

• Update the operating system. It is (almost) always worth having the operating system updated, and this is more important when we experience battery, connection or overheating problems.
• Restore the LG G3. Another solution that usually works with many software problems is to restore the device, so if our LG G3 heats up, we can save all the important data and restore the mobile. Here I would recommend not recovering the backup (yes the data).
• Lower the brightness manually. If the overheating is not very high, it may be that what we are experiencing is more of a sensation or mania than anything else. To make sure, we can lower the brightness of the screen of our LG G3 and, if the temperature normalizes, it is likely that our problem was more in our head than in our mobile.
• Turn off the LG G3 and wait 10-15 minutes.
• Replace the battery with a new one.

Buy battery for LG G3

It's the nice thing about having a device with removable battery: It is relatively easy to find a new battery if the old one gives us problems. There are hundreds of physical and online stores where we can buy batteries, but personally I would always recommend looking at Amazon first. We are talking about a store that offers the best guarantee that we could imagine, getting to return the money without hitting it if we are not happy with what we have bought.

It is also a good idea to look at Amazon because we can see what users think of each product, opinions that we can see in the form of comments. Regarding this, what we have to do is check that the comments have the "Verified Purchase" label, which means that the user has bought the item and has done so on Amazon. By doing a simple search we can find the following options, some of them with a greater capacity:

• Perfine Li-ion Extended Replacement Battery 6000mAh.
• Mbuynow 9600mAh Li-ion Battery.
• Perfine BL-53YH Li-ion Battery 6000mAh.

But since I would not like the responsibility of making a bad purchase fall on me, my advice is that you stay with the fact that we can find batteries of all kinds for the LG G3 in all kinds of electronics stores, so It is best to take a look at different establishments to make sure we find the best option for us.
