Hey guys. I'm just curious as to how well your phones have held up during your daily use.

My screen is shattered pretty good. All of the rubber on the back was shredded and ripped off long ago. The frame AND the battery is also bent to all hell

I was running through the parking lot after work and it fell out of my pocket. Not only did it land perfectly face down... It slid into a puddle (a puddle in Washington state?!)

Still works though.
I consider my phone as soft bricked right now. (there is a post about it) I lost root and its impossible to root it again. For now. So my phone is basically twice as worthless to me.

LCD screens do not get screen burn-ins. They do however get what can be loosley called ghost images. Ghost images or more likey to go away after a while of screen transitioning. LCD screens also dont get these images as easy as like plasmas that do get burn-in. So whats the longest time its been on a still image?

Im sorry your in this predicament. But there is some good news... With some bad. If you you have general knowledge of opening up phones, you can find a disassembly guide and buy a replacment screen, but they dow run about $100 US. Another thing to try is well... See if you can ship it without the battery to one of our devolopers here at the v10 h900 forums to ship offf to lg, and send the new one LG ships to them, back to you.

You can get a used LG V10 h901 for 234$ on eBay. From what I've seen, most screen replacements are around 120$. So I'm gonna spend the extra 114 dollars and get an h901 to replace my h900.

I'm on my third v10, my wife is on her second. My first one had a issue with the motherboard and overheated and ultimately had the boot loop of death. Att sent me a refurbished one, even though I had my original phone less then two months, that phone had a faulty wifi antenna or something and could not connect to wifi. They sent me another one which is working fine so far, although it's only been three weeks.
My wife's phone died after she had it for a month and a half, something in the phone shorted out and scorched the bottom of the phone, her replacement is working fine for now too.

We've been through four phones in two months. These are not our first lg phones, but I'm really disappointed in these phones and won't be buying another LG phone again.

Still going strong. All stock MM, SOT of about 4 hours, 36 hours between charges, GPS never fails, BT volume a little low in car, audio great. Seidio case, tempered glass screen protector, not a scratch on it. Have to clear cache a little lag the past 2-3 days. It's big and heavy but I love it!

Mine died this past Monday. Suddenly it turned off and when I tried to turn it back on it was on a bootloop on the LG logo. Made a factory reset and it didn't fixed it. Had to take it to att. They sent me yesterday an att certified new device. So far is working good.

Its scary how we have had the EXACT same experience with the V10. First phone boot loop. Second phone refurb would not connect to wifi and when it did it would shut on and off automatically over and over. Ultimately the phone would reboot itself.

That is crazy that we both had the same issues. I was ready to get rid of att so I could avoid more refurbished phones, but they finally agreed to send me and my wife two new models and they added extra data to our plan. The only thing available was the S7 edge, but I'm just ready to wash my hands of the v10 at this point.
Hopefully you get your stuff resolved

My second one has been pretty solid. No case, and it's been dropped more than a few times, but so far, it's always landed on its edge so no major damage. I'm convinced that a removable battery contributes to this a lot. Having the battery blow out the back on impact is absorbing a lot of the energy when it falls.

My first one, the prox sensor went out after a few weeks. I figured out that it was caused from me putting a lot of bending stress on the frame when I pulled it out of my front pocket while seated. Luckily warranty covered it, and I'm for careful about removing it from my pocket now.
