[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
I followed the instructions on the following thread and now LG OSP works with my G3.

The relevant post on the thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24633554&postcount=17

I also installed the LG OSP APK on my G3.

Download link for LG OSP APK:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pdqgzpqy1x08xwi/com.lge.osp-2.apk

Download link for the D855 folder I created (copied from G2 folder and changed model name in all required places):

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cg526mu5rlgy3tw/LG-D855.rar

Detailed instructions:

1. Copy the files from the models available that represent the best your phone and paste them into your model's folder. If it does not exist, create it.

2. Rename the xml file to your model's name, in my case it was P930, which is also the folders name (not sure if this is critical, but to be safe just do so).

3. Open the file with notepad (notepad>open or right-click then edit).

You should see these tags:

Code:

<on-screen-phone id="P930" version="2.0">

<model>LG-P930</model>

<name>P930</name>

I renamed all these (there were named "720X1280"). Fill these tags with the model of your phone, again.

In short, I made a new folder named D855 and copied all the files from the D802 folder to the D855 folder.

Then I renamed the d802 xml file to d855.

I opened the xml file in notepad, did a "search & replace" for d802 to replace it with "d855".

You should do the same for your G3's model number.

Thank you very much for this post... Downloaded the files, installed apk but where on the phone do I have to copy the LG-D855 folder?

Or do I have to copy it into a folder on my PC?

Have a good one.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
You need to copy it to a folder on your PC: My Documents\LG OSP\Phone_skin directory

Yippiiiiiieeeehhhhh!!!!!

Thanks a million! It works perfect.

Wonder why it's not in the G3 by default...

Your my hero of the day.

Will this work on the D850 the way you set it up? If it won't, how would I go about making it work?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
Quoted from the post I was referring to:

In short, I made a new folder named D855 and copied all the files from the D802 folder to the D855 folder.

Then I renamed the d802 xml file to d855.

I opened the xml file in notepad, did a "search & replace" for d802 to replace it with "d855".

You should do the same for the D850.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonleeck:
I done all as you explained but when I tried to detect my G3 D855 via OSP on PC via USB, it keep saying cannot detect.

It asks me to select PC software option in the USB connection mode in the phone or via Settings/PC Connection , but I do not have the option.

Is this the reason?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
It should be on the Media Device (MTP) option, it works for me.

If it still doesn't work, try another USB port on your PC.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdizzle316:
please help! I'm really liking the Sprint variant of the G3, but for the life of me I cannot get OSP working. Do you guys know if this works on the LS990 version of the G3?

I had the S5 prior to getting the G3 and i used Samsung's version called Sidesync and it worked well. I'd rather keep the G3, but being able to view/contol my phone from my pc is a necessity.

Thanks in advance guys, have a great one!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
It doesn't hurt to try.

Follow the detailed instructions in the above posts.

Copy the G2 folder in the skins folder of the OSP software to a new folder named LS990 or whatever your device's model name is and change the model name in all the required places.

Install the APK on your device.

The device should be on MTP if connected via USB.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdizzle316:
bummer. I don't think it works on the Sprint version? For some reason my computer, when launching OSP application, the application itself says that "No USB devices found."

Am I doing something wrong? I followed the steps posted in this post, but haven't had success.

Again, thanks for taking the time out of your day to help me out :good:
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
Did you try another USB port on your PC?

Try turning on your Wifi if it's not turned on. If that doesn't help, try restarting your phone.

Sometimes OSP doesn't recognize my G3 and the above steps usually help.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdizzle316:
Thanks... I'll give that a shot in the morning when I get to work. I have however tried different ports which didn't yield any positive results. Will give it anther run in the am. Honestly this phone is the best I've used so far, with the note 3 coming a close second. The note 3 standouts as a phone that can do Pretty much anything a computer can do but on a smaller scale. The G3, to me, is a bugatti of phones. Just absolutely beautiful, with a monster engine That can do what a smartphone can do at a premium level, but lacks the productivity tools that are actually handy in everyday use.

With that being said, I will mostly likely turn the return my g3 much reluctance ,so that I can get the note 4 coming out soon. I need Samsungs sidesync app, which is the exact same thing as lg osp app.

Loved everything about this phone... But working at a desk on front of a computer makes controlling your phone with the ability to mirror it to your pc monitor is a must for me.

Appreciate all the input and time Y'all took to help a beginning android tech trying to learn the ropes... Props to all you
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
If the above steps don't help, there's another step I forgot.

Try changing USB mode to PTP and then back to MTP.

Hope this helps.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdizzle316:
Thank you sir...i will definitely give it a shot.

I know i have all the drivers installed....would you happen to know why when i open the OSP application on my pc that it says usb device not recognized?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
Does it say that after you've connected the G3 to the USB port or before that?

Try updating OSP and LG PC Suite to the latest version if you haven't done so already.

BTW, I'm female, so it's thank you Ms. :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdizzle316:
:) Sorry ma'am. Thanks for your input. I've tried all you had mentioned. switching USB ports, as well as updating OSP & PC Suite.

I am on the Sprint version (LS990), and am wanting to get OSP working on the phone, but unfortunately, am not having any luck.

Thanks for everyone's help, hopefully I'll be able to find a way to get OSP fully functional on my G3
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nemesis1218:
Thanks!

This worked perfect on my 851(T-Mobile G3), I had cut OSP as a loss when I switched to the G3.

VS985 OSP not working

Hello all,

I've gone through this thread and haven't found anyone on here that has tried this for the VS985 (verizon version) i've followed all of the instructions, downloaded apk for phone which works, downloaded OSP for my PC and updated, also works downloaded the D855 folder and placed it correctly without making changes.

I then tried to connect (both pc and G3 on the same wifi) the OSP program finds my phone and tries to connect and gives me this error:

"Failed to connect to the mobile phone."

I then went ahead and changed all of the D855 file names to VS985 and went into the XML and made the same changes within from D855 to VS985 tried to connect and got the same error. Has anyone had any luck with the verizon version?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nemesis1218:
Launch phone app

Try launching the OPS app on your phone, it only brings instructions on how to use the phone but when the OSP computer program won't connect to my phone opening the app on my G3 usually fixes the problem.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lickwidravr:
I should have mentioned that while i was doing everything that i mentioned, i also had the OSP app open on my phone.

What version of the g3 do you have
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soimthatguy:
I was able to get this done for my bone stock LG G3 from T Mobile (LG-D851). What I did was plug in the phone to the computer, on the screen where it lets you choose whether to charge, transfer and etc, open the option menu, from there you can install PC programs. Let it install its drivers then a window will come up asking to install PC Suite. Install PC Suite. Once it has installed, it will connect to your phone. On the main screen in PC Suite, you will see the model number. Mine was LG-D851. I then disconnected from PC suite and closed it. I went into my Documents\LG OSP\Phone_skin. In there i copied and pasted the LG-D855 folder i downloaded from a member here. (link is on the first page). I renamed it to LG-851 since that is my model. I did so for the folder, xml file, and edited the xml file internally. On my phone, i opened the On Screen Phone app then opened On screen phone program on my computer. Connected it to the USB, it detected and worked.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palexr:
Hmmm, the only way i can get it to work is by connectiong via wireless. Not to inclined to do that at work... USB just gives me "No USB device, Please select the PC Software option in the USB connection mode on yuor phone" which i don't have. Nor can i find it under Settings > connectivity, which in itself does not exist...?

Can somebody confirm this works with Android 5.0.

I updated my G3 (855) to Lollipop before I stumbled upon this post and I have an issue that the app on Android is crashing when I try to start it.

Thx!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clmm:
Yes, not run in lollipop
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Splashy2k:
You're right, LG OSP doesn't work on Lollipop. I updated my G3 today and found this out.

AirDroid 3/AirMirror doesn't support Lollipop yet either but I did find an alternative that works on Lollipop.

https://www.mobizen.com/

The only drawback, at least for me and for anyone else who speaks another language other than English, is that you can only type in English.

There's a workaround, it's not perfect and it's "primitive" but it works. If you type in another language on Notepad and then copy and paste it into Mobizen, it will paste the text that you typed in a foreign language.

This only works in the PC version of Mobizen. This is not a perfect solution but it works for the time being, hopefully I will find a better solution or Airdroid will update their software for Lollipop support.

Edit: when you use Mobizen to type it also changes the default keyboard to Mobizen. Like I said before, this is not a perfect solution but it's better than nothing.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jarjar72:
Solution appreciated

Hi all,

I would also really appreciate a fast solution here since LG OSP was one of the killer features and one of the reasons I bought this phone. I don't understand why LG didn't even built this into the G3 from the factory. :rolleyes::silly::eek:

Airdroid, Mobizen are no options for me because I don't want to do this over some third party servers.

Kind regards,

JJ

This basically means that OSP (On-screen phone) is not supported anymore by Android 5.0. So this is official then...

Of course I re-wrote them once again to express my anger.

That's it for me already again with LG phones...

Maybe some developer here on xda finds a way to make OSP work again on our phones...?

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] tazeo:
I have followed a few of the tutorials with some success but did a mis-step somewhere along the way pursuing S-OFF. While not a total noob with modding (Consoles mainly) this is the first time I am truly lost in the process.

Excuse me if I use a wrong term here and there, I probably need to have a sleep as I have been working on this (from start of initial Mod) for about 17 hours straight (Overnight). :confused:

So I have a HTC One M7 UL that I have unlocked and has TAMPERED showing on the Boot screen. :good:

When I power it up it freezes at the white HTC powered by ANDROID screen.

I can get to the Boot menu, and I can select Recovery but it shows the screen for loading the which ever tool I have managed to flash (so yes I have the ability to flash and can swap between Clockwork and TWRP versions with flashing)

I can't list devices or start a shell session, as it thinks that USB debugging isn't turned on. Up until I caused the FUBAR USB connection was working fine.

Holding Power Button doesn't shutdown, just reboots, but can achieve shutdown through boot menu.

How do I get a working phone again?
