The only way I have found to stop the battery drain and heat, is to turn off Mobile Data.

Seems that if you frequently go to areas with vrappy reception, battery drains very rapidly

If I play games on it the battery drains quickly but if I just use it for emails, talking and texting it last a full work day (12 hours for me)

After six months with the GS5 and a number of irritating issues(USB 3 port wearing out, fake chrome chipping around home button, constant freezing, terrible lag, random unexplainable battery drain) I was ready to go back to IPhone

Then I noticed the battery drains faster than usual even when I'm not really using it

Weak signals force the phones OS to over-work searching for a signal, resulting in rapid battery drain

Then I went about digging into the settings, and optimized things for battery drain purposes.

I have tried different batteries, different charging cords and making sure all background apps are closed and the phone remains hot and the battery drains within an hour of being off the charger, which puts me in quite a mess because I am in sales and use my phone as a PA, not to mention to simply keep in touch with clients

Nice phone and features but the battery drain is terrible.

The battery drain is horrendous, and call reception is poor

Great phone everything works as it should

I'm sure I'm missing a

Lags a

- UpdateI removed one star because after a month of usage, battery life isn't as great as I'd like

This can be extremely painful and frustrating as it occurs randomly

I have read additional reviews which basically say that because the display is LCD and not Super Amoled, the colors don't render as well, or they aren't as sharp as they expected it to be and whatnot

I replaced the stock launcher with Nova Prime because LG's launcher lags a

Great phone does anybody know if I can get a extended warranty through Amazon Not one of those cheap t square

Some G3 owners have said that they returned the AT&T version of the G3 and bought a T-Mobile G3 which works very well on AT&T without the signal reception issues

Too bad, because I really wanted to like this phone and my previous one from AT&T worked like a charm.

Screen died after 6 months of use - I like the LG phones but this refurbished one did not last long

Real bothersome to me, but I like the rest of the phone well enough to just go with the flow (I use the APP and have changed the sounds)I do feel the LED notification lights are just a gimmick

Perfect n exactly as described and up and ruinning in 10 minutes
