Both LG and T-Mobile are investigating the issue, and we have a fix that might help.
For those unaware, LGclosed its mobile divisionback in 2021 and stopped making phones.
However, the company did continue sending security updates out and evenpromised Android 12software updates for select devices.
This happens over and over, continuously, every few seconds, making devices giant paperweights.
So, what is the’LG IMS has stopped’oops message, and what does it mean?
LG’s IMS is a framework that handles text messages and phone calls for LG smartphones.
This app, or running service, is critical to devices being able to communicate with T-Mobile.
However, something has changed with T-Mobile or LG, and it’s causing massive problems.
Either way, theT-Mobile Help Twitteraccount keeps saying LG will have a fix ready later tonight.
Obviously, having a non-functional phone until later tonight isn’t ideal.
If you get the ‘LG IMS’ error during the process, don’t worry.
Hit “close app” and just keep following the steps above.
Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee that the steps above will fix the problem.
Nor will turning on airplane mode prevent the error popup from happening repeatedly.
If it does, you’ll need to flush the error and continue with the steps quickly.
Again, both T-Mobile and LG are aware of the problem and are actively working on a solution.
