Seriously I dont know what I am missing on newer phones (inclusive V40) but I really think V30 is a gr8 one.

After update to Android 9, wifi speed bumps up by 100 mbps.
Used to get only 400+mbps, but now 500+mbps

Loving the update so far. Feels faster and getting better battery life out of it. Having some issues with my screen having some greying out effects. Probably repair it before the warranty ends in Nov!

Like to check with bros here on advice if your fingerprint sensor has failed before:

There was a few times this afternoon I could not unlock my phone via fingerprint (and when I go to Settings, Biometrics may or may or may not have option to enable fingerprint).

Even after i do a normal reset, the fingerprint unlock may or may not work. Luckily for the past few hours everything seems fine.

Based on above, seems more likely to be a possible hardware problem?

1. Anyone has done replacement at LG Service center and how much (my no longer in warranty)

2. Similarly anyone repaired outside before?

TIA

Anyway just to share: My fingerprint sensor died on me yday.

Went LG Service center to change for around $120+ (inclusive servicing charge) and took around 1-2 hrs.

Wah $120. I would rather buy a used Korea model off Qoo10

try OTA update?

or use the LG connect app or whatever it's called.

There's a phone software update option in there somewhere.
