Re: LG IMS HAS STOPPED
LIONHRTTPA wrote: "LG IMS has stopped working" popup AFTER 2 DAYS TRYING TO FIX, i SUCCEEDED WITH THE 'PARTIAL FIX' DOING THE FOLLOWING: NOTES: i have two LG V20 Phones and Fix worked for both when following these steps precisely. This fix is lost if you turn the WIFI back on or if phone is set to auto turn on when rebooting/turning on phone. Fix was not lost once resolved by rebooting phone. Fix does not seem to hinder phone operations other than WIFI must remain OFF. You can send & receive calls/texts with no popups. If you need WIFI for watching video, doing backups, etc., turn back on, but realize nuisance popup will resume and you will need to redo these below steps until T-mobile fixes the problem they caused. Call your State Attorney General and insist on an investigation. FIX DO NOT FACTORY RESET YOUR PHONE Turn off WIFI REBOOT PHONE (ensure WIFI didn't restart or make it stay off in phone settings Go to settings → Apps/notifications -> App info -> Three dots -> Show System -> com-lge-ims-rcsprovider -> Storage CLEAR CACHE FORCE STOP (After clearing CACHE) CLEAR DATA (This will not delete your texts) FORCE STOP (After clearing DATA) Leave Settings. Popups should stop. Reboot. Popups should remain gone unless you turn WIFI back on. T-mobile still has not addressed this massive problem publicly as of Mon May 23 10:15pm ET.. Shameful and possibly criminal. HOLY CRAP! THIS WORKED!!! I suggest having separate screens open for the cache, the data clearing, and force stopso that you canall go back and forth quickly before that STUPID error pops up again. You gotta be quick!!! Tmobile tried the clear cache and force stop for the com.lge.ims.rcsprovider, but you've got to clear cache, then force stop, clear data,then force stop. It may need 3 or 4 tries in this order, THEN REBOOT!! I spent HOURS on this today, but this solution worked!! I wanna cry and dance!! Thank you, thank you!! I DID NOT do a factory reset either! I've been with Tmobile since 2006, and am relatively pissed they haven't fixed this. I am not buying a new phone because they had some firmware update outside LG's parameters!!1Ver0likes0Comentarios
