    Issues with voice/assistant

    Using voice to text, mic goes right back off after tapping it, regardless off keyboard being used. Saying "hey/ok google" doesn't activate voice search or assistant. Tapping mic icon in search bar doesnt work the first try. It pulls up the "Say ok google/tap mic button" prompt. What gives?

    Cannot send or receive MMS while on Wi-Fi

    This is a problem I've been experiencing for years. My current device is an LG Stylo 5. Just bought it a month ago. My previous device was an LG Stylo 2. Before that was the original LG Stylo. Basically I can't even remember the last time I had a MetroPCS device where I could send or receive MMS...

    Help Cannot attach videos to MMS

    My device is an LG Stylo 2 plus. I would have posted in there but it's like a ghost town. Anyway, I was trying to send a video via text this morning and every time, no matter how short it is, it always tells me the file is too big and to reduce the file size. So I made the videos shorter and...

    Horrible lag with "OK Google"

    Any time I say the phrase above, it will just sit there with the three dots buffering forever, and usually after about 20 or 30 seconds I give up and just press the microphone icon. What gives? It started doing this a couple months ago

    Looking for a specific ringtone

    About 5 years ago I had a phone, I cannot recall what kind, on which there was a ringtone called Bust a Move. It sounded like rap music with record scratching. I've tried for the past couple of years to find that ring tone without success. If somebody could help me it would be greatly...

    How do I disable the Google updates in my status bar?

    At least once or twice a day I get a news update from Google. Any time I drive by a store, restaurant, or any type of business I'll get a notification asking me to rate it or take pictures or whatever. Sometimes I'll get ETA to home and whatnot. Is there any way to completely disable this?

    GPS navigation giving erroneous travel times

    Any time I try to use the GPS to calculate travel time, it will give me times that are wildly inaccurate. Like for example a town nearby that I've driven to many times that I know is a 45-minute drive it tells me is an hour and 45 minutes. Another town that I know to be an hour and 20 minutes...

    Suggestions on phone similar to Stylo 2 plus?

    I was on the fence about the Stylo 3 due to the fact that they regressed and put the volume buttons back on the side instead of on the bottom. Now I have learned that this phone will not be getting the Android Oreo update. So it looks like I'm going to say goodbye to the Stylo after having the...

    "Saving audio to (my email address)" prompt whenever I use voice text.

    It's honestly getting pretty annoying. It just started today. It does this with both my LG keyboard and SwiftKey, so apparently it's an issue with Google as opposed to the keyboard. What gives?

    Help Google Voice search issues

    About half the time I say OK Google, for a brief second the normal Google search screen will come on only to be immediately overlapped by this screen which although shows the microphone icon and search bar, doesn't have the microphone on at that point which means I have to tap on the microphone...

    Blocking phone numbers on nougat

    It allows us to block individual numbers and also has a function that says digit blocking. Initially I thought this meant you can block area codes and /or prefixes, which would have been a godsend because I'm always getting spam calls from numbers that start with my area code and prefix...

    Finally received the LG launcher a day or two after getting the Nougat update. Question:

    I've heard following a system update, it's a good idea to do a factory reset, supposedly this will eliminate glitches and help the phone to run more smoothly. Is this true? Also I'm kind of scared to do the reset because I'm worried that the LG home launcher will go away and it will take forever...

    86 MB update waiting on my phone, could this be Nougat?

    After factory reset and using LG backup, all of my music disappeared.

    As stated in the title recently I did a factory reset of my phone. I had everything backed up with LG Backup, all of my apps and bookmarks were brought back including 364 songs that I had. Somehow, mysteriously, a day later all of my music vanished from my phone. How could this happen? I have...

    Has anyone noticed lag on this phone?

    I've had instances of this phone seriously lagging and a few times the screen has frozen. The last time I nearly had to do a battery pull, it was stuck so bad. I haven't experienced BS like this since the hated days of my Optimus M. Also, I've noticed it's not as fast as my original stylo...

    Unable to download the latest update?

    This is what I saw when I went into my settings, there is no download button to push no apparent way to download this update at all. https://imgur.com/ttUjYfn There is no restart and install button at the bottom of the screen, contrary to what my phone says. I'm not even able to scroll down...

    Mobile data disabled following a short period of WiFi usage

    I went into a coffee placed and used their WiFi for a couple of hours. As I was leaving, I turned WiFi of, and mobile data never returned. It previously worked without issue. I tried all the "tricks" Metro customer support typically tells you; toggle WiFi on and off, reboot, toggle airplane...

    enabled lock screen on lg stylo for first time, now I can't undo it?

    the option to click "none" for no lock screen is now grayed out. I don't know what to do. I know I should post this in the LG styro forum, but there is a lot less traffic there, & I need this resolved quickly. http://imgur.com/6meqkgr

    Metro Block-it app gone?

    Just purchased an LG Stylo. When I went into the Metro App Store, I noticed the block it app wasn't there. I checked in the Play Store, it isn't there either. Did Metro do away with this app?
