I've got a D801 (T-Mobile) and over the past month or so, I've been experiencing pretty severe graphical artifacts. It usually consists of multiple purple and green horizontal lines, about a pixel wide, all over the screen (on both the image and any accompanying text content). It is often...

Haven't noticed any reboots while docked on SlimKat. All reboots have been on battery power. V13 rebooted while docked and on battery.

Been getting random reboots during music playback. Happens with PowerAmp, N7Player, and Pandora (all that I've tested). No set time interval - I've had it reset multiple times in 10 minutes as well as run perfectly for 30-40 minutes. This was also an issue with the last ROM I used...

This looks like the error you get if you're not using the latest version of TWRP. Make sure your TWRP is updated and try flashing then.

Same issue. Unfortunately, the reason why I was restoring the firmware is because I'm trying to get it RMA'ed for a hardware issue - the volume up button is (nearly; I can get download mode to function occasionally) non-functional. I thought it might be buggy software, so I tried a different...

Figured out the problem (sort of) - my volume up key is dead. So that's tablet #2 going back - I swear, I have the worst luck with these things...

Newegg is usually fine, though they do like to re-sell returned items from time to time (especially for exchange replacements), and their return policy blows (they force you to pay shipping - about $12 - and won't ship you a new item until they receive and process the old one, which takes about...

Anyone have issues with glitchy power/volume buttons? My power button occasionally doesn't work properly (turns off/reboots the tablet when held down, but won't put it to sleep/bring up the power options menu) and the volume keys go haywire from time to time, raising the volume when nothing is...

I've tried that, but it doesn't work. When I release the power button, then press it and volume up, the tablet just turns off. Also, download mode has stopped working for some reason. I'm holding volume up and volume down while inserting the usb cable, but it just tries to boot rather than...

Any way to get into TWRP if I'm stuck on the boot animation? I think I forgot to restore my boot partition when I flashed a new ROM and restored my data, and it's stuck. I know I can restore back to stock and start over, but that's a pain I'd like to avoid if at all possible.

The non-unlockable bootloader isn't really an issue since it's been bypassed with Loki, which gets used for everything that needs to get by the bootloader. The yellow-toned screen is an issue for some people, but not others. It can be balanced out with screen tweak apps if you do have a...

Good to know - I mainly get screen protectors for reducing fingerprints (I have oily fingers, so without a protector, my screen looks like garbage after a few hours of use), so the GearMaxx one wouldn't work for me. I'll give The Evecase ones a shot.

There's an even easier way that just uses the LG Mobile Support tool linked in the OP of that thread. Put the pad in download mode with the tool running, then click Options (on the top right) and Upgrade Recovery. That downloads the firmware direct from LG and installs it automatically. You...

What's the application method? Wet or dry? I've already killed one screen with a wet-application protector, so I'm a little gun-shy right now.
