i have tried to make a software for LG g2 but it seems lg has killed G2 .. it clearly means dont buy LG :mad::mad::mad:
[G2 General] yUlekk:
Yeah, its a deal breaker
[G2 General] 60nine:
this guy is trolling on several threads with this ir stuff that noone cares about... in themes and apps, in development section (piasek kernel thread if i recall) and now here as well...
[G2 General] :
i already have lg g2 ... there are loads of bugs in lg g2 and there is no update after over 6 six month !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can list them for you if you want

:(

what excatly ??? what advantages did you find about lg g2 ????? :rolleyes:
[G2 General] costipl:
Why don't you sell it and save yourself the trouble?

Can we get back on topic please?
[G2 General] :
if you want pure power of g2 just switch to android 4.1.2 :)

i have got weird score in antutu benchmark with 4.1.2 :laugh: some times it will get higher score than note 3 :victory:

---------- Post added at 11:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 AM ----------

because g2 is really fast :(
[G2 General] 60nine:
why would you care why i like g2? i like it - period...

just stop with your childish posts, get a new device, and get over it... spare us of your trolling, thanks in advance...
[G2 General] wulsic:
[MENTION=629605]newvgac12[/MENTION] if you want more better updates and stability switch over to some aosp based rom since hey are maybe more bug free. I dont get why IR is so important :/ if you dont need it switch over to the nexus5. Why do you need IR actualy for? You making an remote control software?

Pure power is on Aosp since it doesnt have benchmark detecting software which causes cheated scores by having it on 100% performance the whole time. Sorry for being offtopic also.

The most delightfull thing i have found is that the phone canndetect an cracked screen or something like that its funny :D never saw that before.
[G2 General] :
yes i tried to make one .. but there is no way

ok forget this ..lets back to the topic :o;)

Lollipop

New discoveries with lollipop ??
[G2 General] ingoljosh:
Looking back and reading some of the old posts on this thread i must say that when the G2 was released it was ahead of its time hardware and software.

A lot of the phones out there still cant compete with the G2.

on another note, when i first got my G2 this thread helped me a lot. :good: :good:
[G2 General] f_4Strings:
I always liked the LG G2 ability of playing flac audio files!

Upgrading to Lollipop, I discovered that now it can also play them by its built-in Dlna client! :)
[G2 General] cile1977:
Today I stumbled on new delightfull discovery on Lollipop on LG G2. Real Racing 3 has a stupid "feature" to stay running after I exit just with home button so I always need to swipe it from multitask list to kill it. Today I forgot and after 15 minutes there was notification tha Real Racing 3 app is using battery in background and I should kill it! Great feature. I don't know is it Lollipop feature or it is LG's?

Is it a feature or a bug, when you cover the proximity sensor and unlock the phone, the screen unlocks just for a while and the imediately automatically locks back. At first I was confused, then I figured out it happens only when the prox. sensor is covered, actually it comes handy when you quickly need to check the clock :)
[G2 General] Ralph77:
That's intended behaviour - it prevents the phone from accidentally remaining unlocked while in your pocket, should you happen to press the power button accidentally.
[G2 General] warpunk_24:
No Wireless storage :(

No Wireless storage, takes a little more time to charge :(

But better battery life, smoother operations..
[G2 General] shagratt:
Bought an used LG G2 to replace my S3. Im really amazed of all the features this phone have even before I rooted and installed xposed to mod it.

This device is old but battery,screen and performance are on par with current 'flagships'. (new phones have better screens and proccesors but they are bulkys and they drain their batterys faster)
[G2 General] trickster2369:
Those are your observations and opinions about your particular experience, and I respect that. Others will have there own opinions based on several factors, including perception, comparison between other devices they have used, etc. Me personally, I think it's the best I've seen out of the box, which is my delightful discovery?.

Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.

Absolutely. That's precisely the reason I want to hear what other G2 users have to say about my observations & what their observations are. I would definitely concur with you that overall, this is the best out of the box device.
[G2 General] amorek13:
t

no offense but i thought this discovery thread.....

there are mods for first two you have issues with, which i have done and happy with it, and cant really complain about ui
[G2 General] abhinavsg:
Firstly, I'd like to mention, after people raising their voice against my supposedly 'off-topic' posts, I did report my own Posts No. 97 & 105. Both of them were not found to be irrelevant by the Mods. Which, I think, should bring this 'off-topic' grievance to an end. (no offence intended, just for the sake of everyone's information)

It'd be great if you could share the Mods you did for the speaker-phone & earpiece.
[G2 General] WPWoodJr:
I like the Domino screen swipe effect on the home screen, and home screen looping.

[G2 General] WPWoodJr:
This is huge... the Bluetooth media volume setting is separate from the speaker media volume setting. Blackberries used to do this too. You can set your Bluetooth volume at max and forget it... then control volume with the Bluetooth media player, for instance your car stereo volume control or headphone volume control.

My favorite thing is the rom I think. From gnex as well and always ran custom roms but never found one I like as much as this stock lg one. I'm sure people will find background optimizations. But the appearance, feel and customization of this thing are great.
[G2 General] WPWoodJr:
I like that you can show the battery percentage left in the notification bar.

I just discovered this last night in settings. You can switch between programs by dragging 3 fingers from right to left. This saves the program (icon shows up on the left of the bar) and to get it back swipe from left to right. Really useful when you need to send a text when playing a game. It's called Swipe Aside and it's under the gestures settings.
[G2 General] rockon83:
Awesome thread, great tips! I've had this phone almost a week and am loving it more by the day. One tip I just learned today.

I also came from a GNex, and was holding out for the Nexus 5. Jumped on this when VZW had their unlimited data snafu, that let me keep my plan. Truthfully, with the leaked Nexus specs, it appears this device has a bigger screen, bigger battery, and higher MP camera...and once you switch ROMs, doesn't matter that the device was originally a Nexus. That said, this is the best stock ROM I've ever used. With Nova Launcher on top, and some mods here and there (changing DPI, removing hot spot provision check) this phone is just perfect.

With the display off, hold the volume down for 3 seconds to launch the camera. The volume down (or up) also serves as a shutter button.

With the display off, hold the volume up for 3 seconds to launch quickmemo.

I'm trying to understand all the "Share and Connect" options under Settings, what these really are. I believe I've figured it out, and was hoping others could confirm:

- Direct/Android Beam: This is Wi-Fi Direct

- SmartShare Beam: This is also Wi-Fi Direct, but LG's spin off, to make it "easier/better" working between 2 LG devices.

- NFC and Miracast: Self explanatory (with Miracast being a spin-off of Wi-Fi Direct, specifically for sharing a display)
[G2 General] coolkatz321:
Check out this post on reddit. I did the Viper mod and all sound, via headphone or speaker, sounds much better.
[G2 General] sreymj:
This, again, is off topic. You are asking about a mod, not bringing a discovery to light.
[G2 General] WPWoodJr:
This one is a little hard to explain. When you're using the keyboard and you place the cursor at the beginning of a previously typed word because you want to insert another word, the spell check and correction still works for the new word you are typing. On my old phone it would combine the two words and would not provide any suggestions.

[G2 General] cggorman:
in the app drawer, if you click the settings star in the upper right corner, it will allow you to reorder the app icons freely within and between pages. until I root and massive debloat, this feature has allowed me to effectively hide all the junk on pages 3 and 4. (yes, I know Apex etc. allows to hide app icons, but I was delighted when I discovered this. (not as delighted as if I could actually uninstall (not disable) the bloat without root))
[G2 General] sreymj:
You can hide apps already in the stock launcher . Click settings in the app drawer, hide from there.

If you have a handbag then the note 3 is awesome but for an average mans pocket its just too big lol

Unless you wear skinny jeans the pocket isn't really the problem. Its that it tends to be a two handed phone.
[G2 General] Rayan:
What??? :eek:

Can you please elaborate on this?

I was wondering if the internals had the microsd slot as in the asian model.

Or even a way to replace the battery!

Well true that, but that's only until you sit. It's really annoying and hard to pull out while sitting. (And I'm talking about the Note 1,2,3) :silly:

Back to topic!

Love Knock On!
[G2 General] cmbtswmr:
I just always give it three knocks ;)

Saves so much headache.

That said, I love when I pick up other people's phones and get frustrated that they don't have this feature. I can't imagine ever going back.
[G2 General] Reginald476:
I do the same thing, I wait to see the frustrated/curious face after looking at all of the sides excluding the back.

I used PGM on my Nexus so I love being able to turn the screen on/off without having to lift the phone off of my desk.
[G2 General] xgman:
Thanks for this refreshing thread. Nice to read through multiple pages of positive remarks for a change! Oh, and I like how I can just set the Verizon model on a wireless charger in the morning to power up the phone without having to press the button.
[G2 General] spinedoc:
Hmm, I don't know about that. I'm an average 190lb 5'10" male and I don't wear skinny or tight jeans. The Note 2 fit into my pocket with no problem, it was when sitting down the entire top edge would dig into my hip to the point I thought I was going to snap it. Forget about taking it out while driving. Great phone and I was definitely tempted by the Note 3, but I find the G2 is right about the correct size to still use one handed and fit unobtrusively in the pocket.
[G2 General] *Omnipresent*:
If you record a video, and play it back using the stock video player, you can adjust the brightness and volume without touching the volume keys on the back. Simply swipe up or down on the screen. Left side controls brightness, right side controls volume.
[G2 General] rjrobins:
Love the camera, battery life, screen, and speed of this phone. Excellent job LG! One feature I didn't see mentioned that is really helpful is when you record video and watch in the video app. Someone mentioned that you can use the left or right part of the screen to adjust brightness or volume which is great. What is really neat though is when you click on the timeline you can get a minimal preview of the video and if you click on the video and scroll left or right it will bring up a clock and a screen by screen flipdeck of the video. Very cool feature!
[G2 General] 4d7adt:
Something that hasn't been mentioned. When using the keyboard, swipe from left to right, or right to left to put the keyboard into one-handed mode ?
[G2 General] bps119:
I really like the usb pop up that happens when you plug in the phone to let you know it's fully set in and charging.
[G2 General] eitama:
Killer feature I found :

While taking a dump, You play your favorite game, then, your wife calls, and you don't want to answer, but you don't want to hang up as well. On a different android or iPhone, your game would either minimize in favor of the phone app, or pause, but on the G2, the game keeps running and a phone popup appears, you can Answer/Hangup/Hide the call without the game ever pausing!

Even better, if you chose to hide the incoming call, the led turns green to let you know the caller is still waiting for you to answer, you can swipe down the notification bar and still answer if you changed you mind!!!!!

This is a killer feature which turns the experience to a hell a lot better while gaming.
[G2 General] adamfair:
Also in landscape mode use thumbs to swipe away to get split keyboard.
[G2 General] atsfrnd:
check the calendar icon every morning and see what changes..
[G2 General] WPWoodJr:
Except that sometimes when using the Droid MAXX car dock/charger, the USB pop-up happens but then you get a dialog box saying the charger is incompatible. This happens when the phone isn't fully seated onto the charger's USB plug. You have to kind of firmly push the phone onto the plug.
[G2 General] bps119:
Yeah, the first few days I thought I was going to rip the charger in two just trying to pull it out of the phone. That is one tight jack.
[G2 General] IamPro:
Do you swipe from the keyboard itself? Can't seem to replicate this feature :(

The landscape split keyboard is so awesome
[G2 General] WPWoodJr:
You have to enable it in the keyboard settings.

Delightful discovery for me are the "stock" tools

With my GNEX, I didn't care for the stock keyboard, so I bought Swiftkey. I didn't care for the built in alarm clock so I purchased the one by DoubleTwist. I didn't care for the stock music player so I bought Player Pro......and there are many other examples (calendar, video player, etc.)

With the G2, I don't need to use any of these third party tools because the stock ones are great! So, it was a delightful discovery to be able to keep my system as lean and clean as possible by not having to install all of these extra apps. So happy with this phone and I can't understand why it doesn't get the credit it deserves in the media.
[G2 General] nismology:
Exactly. People that complain about heavily-skinned android distributions don't realize that much of the functionality that comes from it would have to otherwise be replicated by downloading a plethora of third party apps that aren't necessarily part of a coherent design. There is value in a well put together "overlay" because leaving it as-is is actually viable.
[G2 General] moonjak:
Exactly what has happend me during my android experience. I've run from around ten android phones and bought around 100 apps during the way. In the end i ended going unrooted and without allmost any of those apps, just because one gets tired of all the tweaking. Before it was all about getting smooth experience and things working but now with lately devices (note 2 and forward) it's been more just the habit to have phone rooted and covered. I rooted my latest 'go fishing' xperia V phone and installed custom recovery but have lived with it 4 months and never even used single backup or needed anything than default rom. :)

My LG G2 is on the way, still trying to find some useful things that i would need to root it for. Seems android is growing to a point where rooting starts to loose its meaning as all the necessary is allready there.

Still i would choose a clean bloatware free custom rom with a choise of what to install over a full rom anyday. Thats something i think even the phone makers should step-to. I know after a while thats where i end up with the phone.
[G2 General] nismology:
Proper backup solutions and adblocking/xprivacy are reasons enough to root for me, no matter the platform.
[G2 General] moonjak:
Now that i catch your attention, what u mean by xprivacy? :) something like somesung is trying to archieve with that knox thing?
[G2 General] android404:
It's a module for the xposed framework which you will find here on xda. With the module you can block every single permission of every single app on your phone (or send fake data if you want to). Some blocked permissions make certain apps force close so you have to decide whether you want to uninstall those apps or accept their behaviour. It's an insanely powerful way of protecting your privacy.
[G2 General] ghedoicy:
Sweet!

[G2 General] moonjak:
This maake me want root!, does it work allso for all stock bloats/ aka system apps?

Thanks for tip mate! :)

Happy weeekend!

Seems like a damn good app. does it need root to work?
[G2 General] Heatshiver:
I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned, but I love that you can just answer a call simply by putting the phone to your ear.
[G2 General] spinedoc:
I like that feature, but it was kind of wonky for me. Sometimes when I put it up to my ear it would beep and drop the call as if the phone went to sleep or maybe my ear hit the cancel button.
[G2 General] Heatshiver:
Odd, that has never happened to me. I might get a short lag before it answers, but I chalk this up to my steep underclock!
[G2 General] girlygirl00:
This one scares me. It is unchecked. I worry that it will malfunction and answer on it's own even if I don't put it to my ear. And then I won't realize it, and it'll be someone I just happen to be talking smack about right at that moment. :P
[G2 General] edmann:
This phone is pretty, pretty, good. LG has paid attention to what the hacking/rom/dev world has been creating these passed many years; a phone that is not boring.

My discovery is, with a text you can one, two hold, slide down and the text zooms, gets bigger/smaller as you slide. 8 )

I'm not sure if it's mentioned before, after you hang up, It gives you the option to either redial or send text message right from that same screen.

Also as mentioned before, I like the function of just putting the phone to your ear to answer without pressing any button but it was embarrassing that it takes a little bit time to answer, making the phone ring a littleon your ear.

Didn't see this one mentioned yet ... with the stock keyboard, the 2 keys on the right of the space bar can be customized. Long press and select a punctuation. That now becomes assigned to the key! So you can select 2 of your most common punctuations to be accessible by a single press! :)

You have to remember though that the next time you long press and select a different punctuation, that will get assigned instead. So if you don't want to change assignments, use a different method to select a punctuation other than your assigned ones.
