How To Fix Unfortunately Messages Has Stopped On LG V30

Whenever you see the “Unfortunately Messages Has Stopped” error on your LG V30, it means that your default messaging application has crashed. This prevents you from reading or sending text messages. However, here are 3 easy ways to fix “Unfortunately messages has stopped” errors on LG V30.

How To Fix LG V30 “Messages has stopped” Error

Popular fixes include using Safe Mode, clearing data and cache, and resetting your device. However, the one I recommend is taking your LG V30 back to the carrier or manufacturer to have them fix the issue. However, here’s what you can do on your own.

Safe Mode

Firstly, boot your LG V30 in Safe Mode. Once you do so try to use the message app. Only default apps that shipped with your phone load in safe mode.

If you can use the message app then you know that a third-party app is causing your messages app to crash.

Reboot your Android and try to figure out which of your apps may be causing your messages app to not work. Once you figure it out, uninstall the app.

However, if messages keeps stopping even in safe mode. Then continue with the next fix.

Clear Cache & Data

  • From the Home screen, swipe up on an empty spot to open the Apps tray.
  • Tap Settings > Apps.
  • To display preinstalled apps, tap Menu Show system apps.
  • Find and tap Messages.
  • Tap Storage > CLEAR CACHE > CLEAR DATA > DELETE.

There is also the possibility that you can lose text messages when you perform the reset. However, you can use your phone’s backup and restore feature to save your texts.

Final Thoughts

If your LG V30 messages keep stopping then you can hard reset your LG V30 to see if this fixes the problem. However, remember that you can always take it your carrier first for help.

If you do a factory reset, be sure to transfer your photos to a PC and transfer files and backup contacts as well.
