Bigger problem is there will be no ESS dac in the North American G6. It'll have wireless charging instead but no discrete dac/amp chip. LG is reserving the dac for parts of Asia only (but no wireless charging).
 
So neither region with have both features. I'll certainly be sticking to my V10 with added wireless charging until the V30 is released.
 

​Would you be so kind to point to me to a working wireless charging system for V10? I just got one non-original back with the wireless inductive charger, as well as a wireless charger. Both from eBay, but not working good. It charges, but it takes for ages, and the back is not of the original LG quality. (= unusable)

The OEM charging back is LG CPR-120 and you may be able to find one on eBay. LG have announced a wireless charging pad that can do 2A output but I'm not sure whether it is on sale yet.

Mine is an aftermarket charging sticker (not LG) that fit inside the stock back cover. I had to remove the stock "sticker" and replace it with the charging one.
 
Wireless charging does take longer but I find that it either works or not.
 
Is your wireless charger a single coil or triple coil design? Triple coil ones usually say so on the packaging/specs and are longer: The extra coils make it easier to line up with the phone and provide a more continuous charge (might be a little faster too).
 
I use a Nokia wireless charger but there are tons of triple coil ones available:

The Tylt Vu is another good one:

Dammit!!! Woke up to bootloop. V20 for me. Almost 2 years though, not bad.

Two months, and no bootloop behaviour. And I've been using it normally everyday. Must have had something to do with all those YouTube vids I was watching at the time.

I'm using unrooted LG ROM. Do some custom ROM helps with heating and stability? Anyone can share their wisdom?

If you're experiencing heating and stability issues it's either hardware or skanky apps causing problems. A ROM won't make a huge difference. You mentioned heating issue - what are the battery temps when it gets hot and what are you running?

Also would recommend to install HWMonitor to help you keep an eye on things like power consumption, temp, etc.

More apps drag the system down. You should activate the developer tools that is built into all droid phones (Google the steps) and activate the options;

1. Do not keep activities.
2. Background process limit = set to 1 or 2 for now.
3. Turn off the sync option also. That is a battery hog.
4. Go into apps and turn off/uninstall apps you don't want or use.

See your results. You may have too many things running draining and overheating your phone. This will also increase your battery life tremendously. Also turn off all animations. They are pointless. It will speed up the phone also. If you get good results increase the background limit to 3 but not more. It's best to re-launch the app then to keep it running unless you are on the phone all day and multi-tasking all day.

I always do this on droid phones and it makes them stable and smooth and makes the battery exceptional.

Good advice but limiting process to 1 or 2 can cause problems. Also, sync, if reasonable, shouldn't hamper performance much.
 
For a monitoring apps, CPU-Z is looking really good!  Anyone having problems, post a screenshot from CPU-Z from "Thermal" and "battery" columns and if running CPU/memory intensive apps a the time.

"limiting process to 1 or 2 can cause problems?" Never had an issue. I don't have any problems doing it. Been doing it for years, over 15 actually. Like I stated unless you are running or need many things running it's not needed. Since this is a troubleshooting topic it's advised to do it to see if the problem resolves. Also sync does degrade performance a lot depending on the sync time set.

My advice is to first rule out a hardware problem before making any changes that could have unintended consequences. If I couldn't leave sync enabled on my phone, it would be pretty useless for my needs. Except for the DAC maybe.

After the latest Marshmallow update my fingerptint sensor didnt scan well so I have deleted all 4 fingerptint scans and rescanned my 4 fingers. Interestingly now the scanner works more reliable than ever! Wanted to share as someone might benefit from this info...

Do you still find screen eats 70-80 % of battery even after your battery protective measures?

I set the screen to manual dim and set it to 50-60% and it's bright enough for me. The screen is the biggest hog that is true. My battery easily lasts a day. At end of day I'm at 80% but very light usage. Everyone will be different in their results. I turn off all the extra junk that is running as it's completely not necessary and just runs in the background and eats memory that eats battery life. That is the real trick to extending the battery among other things.

Sounds good, just wanted to get a little more detail on your usage patterns. Personally the screen almost never goes above 30% for me, but i never have the second screen go to sleep.
