I was hoping we could start a post where people post apps that make the most use of the LG G3's amazing screen. If you guys have found any games, apps please post them I'd like to know. Thanks for your time :D
[G3 Themes and Apps] teddy beer:
that would be great, i recently bought the g3 and some of the apps i used with me previous device (note 2) are not compatible yet :crying:

microsoft office mobile,nba jam, rayman jungle run, papa pear saga, nfs most wanted, mass effect infiltrator for example
[G3 Themes and Apps] bdogan1912:
Same here. Most of common using apps aren't support QHD yet. For example The Sims Freeplay and many more that i used on GN3. Mailed some devs for support but got nothing back.
[G3 Themes and Apps] ricosuave88:
If your rooted with xposed theres a module called play store fixes lets you download any app that the phone is incompatible with hope that helped ...
[G3 Themes and Apps] rhystagram:
you may not see many for QHD, i myself haven't found any.

we need to wait until it goes mainstream, it's happening though!
[G3 Themes and Apps] pradeepjoshua:
it will happen once nexus 6 is launched...since it also has QHD display:)

Shy Widgets

Some people have said that the widget is hiding as soon as they touch it. Yes, this is the behavior by default. But, you can change it in Preferences. Look for the setting 'Hide widget on interaction' and disable it.

I have changed the post mentioning this.
[Android Apps and Games] cproblems:
I like it

I like it so far - animations are smooth on my N5. Took a bit of time to get used to switching groups though.

Can you make the auto hide option setting for each widget? I may need some widgets to hide on touch, but some to stay.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Update available.

I pushed an update to the Play Store:

New in this release:

1. Added option to disable ongoing notification

2. Option 'Hide on interaction' is now configurable for each widget (PRO only)

3. New animation: grow/shrink

4. Usability improvements
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Yes, check out the latest update. Per widget setting is a PRO only feature though. Also, I have disabled 'hide on interaction' by default to avoid confusion.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Sorry!!

Sorry, everyone. I messed up slightly with the update.

Some of you may be getting an 'Error adding widget' message when trying to add a widget. I have fixed the issue and have pushed an update to the Play Store and should be available in a couple of hours.

If it is still not fixed, then clearing app data will definitely fix the issue.

Again, I am very sorry about this :(
[Android Apps and Games] PhilDX:
you know what would be cool? a pro version option to make the widget hide when tapping on the screen anywhere outside of the widget. sometimes I just can't get the widget to go away by tapping on the Flippr thingy, and I can't tap on the widget itself because that will be interpreted by the widget as me touching it.

this app is a really nice concept by the way.

Edit: and one other idea ill just throw out there... Action Launcher also has capability to put widgets in a sidebar but the concept is a little different - basically, it uses a slide out panel that houses the widgets. this is an exceptionally easy to use format for quickly accessing a set of widgets. it's basically an app sidebar but for widgets. the downside is that the panel blocks a lot of the screen (more than what any one widget does). but like I said, depending on the use case, it's a very easy format to use.
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
the free version suppose to have 2 groups and 3 widget each but it doesn't work. only the top group appear when scrolling flippr
[Android Apps and Games] krija:
Settings app FC when i try to add widget to the group.

Device: LG G2

Rom: CloudyG3
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
I am working on a swipe to hide option. Tap outside may not be possible as that tap will be for your current app and not for flippr. I'll give it a try though.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Does the second group have at least one widget? Also, try moving the finger up or down a little more. It may just be the case that you did not move enough.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Could you please send me a crash report next time it happens?
[Android Apps and Games] krija:
Of course ;)
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Thanks. This is the second time this has been reported - in both cases from LG devices.. Once from G2 and once from G3. I'll look into it. The logcat is very helpful.
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
nope. even the top indicator only show 3 dots. i tried top/down movement also nothing happen. moving beyond the 3 dots, the widget cycle
[Android Apps and Games] numa001:
FC too when trying to add widget

Device : LG G2

ROM : stock
[Android Apps and Games] PhilDX:
ok, so I just noticed a bit of peculiar behavior and thought I'd pass it along. I'm not complaining, just want to be helpful and see if anyone else can duplicate.

I am using the Pro version on a nexus 10 (stock software). when I set the marker side to "left", I can switch widget groups by touching Flippr and then scrolling up/down. when I set the marker side to "right", I cannot change widget groups by touching Flippr and scrolling up/down...instead, I have to touch Flippr, then slide horizontally to the left side, then scroll up/down. it's as though the vertical scrolling detection is always "looking" on the left side and doesn't adjust to look on the right side when I change the marker side setting in the options.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Yes. That is definitely a bug! Thank you for reporting - I'll fix it immediately.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Is the bubble on the right side?
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
left
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
sorry sreenisatish

Incoming update

I just pushed an update to the Play Store with new features and bug fixes. The update should be available in a couple of hours.

New in this release:

1. Option to set bubble transparency

2. Swipe to hide widgets

3. Fixed crash on LG G2 and G3 devices

4. Fixed issue with flippr navigation when placed on right side

5. Fixed a few other small issues
[Android Apps and Games] partylikeaninjastar:
Can you make it so that touching outside of the widget automatically hides it?
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
I want to implement this, but unfortunately, a tap outside the widget is a tap for your current application and Flippr does not receive the tap. I will try it out though.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Actually, I did manage to implement this :) Testing it out now - so lookout for an update soon with 'Touch outside to hide'!
[Android Apps and Games] partylikeaninjastar:
Awesome. Can't wait to test that out!
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
still can't view the second group with the latest update
[Android Apps and Games] lumpy211:
Dashclock compatibility

Hello! When I add the Dashclock widget, it only shows the clock and small icons for the first two Dashclock widgets. That's the default behavior on a launcher such as Nova or Blur. However, if I resize it so that it's taller on Nova, it becomes the full expanded widget similar to how you can expand it as a lockscreen widget. If I make it larger (say 8 width by 6 height) in Flippr, it still just shows the small widget with a lot of blank space. I've linked some screenshots with what I mean to help it make more sense. Any way we could get it to expand it if I make the widget bigger like on a launcher?

How Flippr currently handles Dashclock as an 8x6 widget

How a launcher handles Dashclock without resizing the widget

How a launcher handles Dashclock after resizing the widget
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
I'll check it out.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
I was able to implement this - testing in progress! The resize should work fine in the next update. Thank you for bringing this to my notice.
[Android Apps and Games] lumpy211:
That's amazing! I'm buying pro right after I post this this. Thanks :D
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Update!

Update pushed to the Play Store!

New in this release:

1. Most requested feature - Touch outside to hide widget!

2. Option to set bubble color - PRO only.

3. Fixed crash on widget configuration and color picker screen - thanks to everyone who sent the crash reports. You are awesome!

4. Fixed walkthrough crash
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
Dear sreenisatish

i cant reply thru PM. Dont know why.. it seems it lock

1. yes

2. trying now.... yes i do both action but still no second group

3. yes i can but at the moment i lost root. i am using asus zenfone 6. rooting a bit problem after every new firmware update. but yes i can help

4 as 3
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
i know what wrong. the position for the second group is quite far below almost near to the bottom of the screen. that why i cannot trigger the second group menu.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
So, you were able to trigger the second group?

Just to confirm if that's indeed the issue, could you try moving the marker position (preferences) to somewhere near the top of the screen (say 30%) and then navigate down?
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
yes i able to trigger the second group...

it quite far below i.e about 20% from the bottom. just wondering whether the trigger can be spaced nearer to the first group?
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
sreenisatish

my PM locked. cannot reply to your message. pls pm me your email, i'll share screen vid from my google drive
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Got the video. It seems to be working as I designed it.

But, I understand what the confusion is. You would probably expect the group to change when you cross the first marker.

Instead, I have currently coded it in such a way that the space between first marker and second marker is for the first group. Space between second and third marker is for the second group and so on.

I will check if I can refine it to avoid confusion. If the current group is first group and if you are crossing the first marker, change to next available group. Will work on it. Thanks for all your help! :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
ok ?
[Android Apps and Games] PhilDX:
hide on outside touch works awesome, thanks for adding that option.

ok, so, here's a question - I notice that when i slide out over the flipper, the widget is drawn on the screen, then when I raise my finger off of the screen after sliding out, the widget appears to be re-drawn. so basically the widget "flashes" when I lift my finger off the screen after sliding it out. is that intentional?

it's not a problem, I'm just curious.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
It is "intentional" as in I am forced to use it :)

If I don't use this workaround, then each time you switch widgets, the android animation (animation when you launch activities) is applied to the widget. This messes up with widget switching. I have spent countless hours trying to get around this - but to no avail. I will give it another go today.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Thanks! The update with the resize fix is now out. Do try it out and let me know if it works!
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Update!

Update available in Play Store!

New in this release

1. New feature - now you can add your favorite shortcuts also to flippr! PRO only.

2. New feature - option to show group navigation markers

3. Fixed issue with resizable widgets.

4. Small improvement in 'touch outside' implementation

5. Improved faster swipe to hide.
[Android Apps and Games] lumpy211:
Yep, it works flawlessly now. Thank you kindly!
[Android Apps and Games] djcense:
Black marker and display above lockscreen

Would be sweet to see an option for solid black marker color. An option to display on top of lockscreen would be sweet too.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Solid black is available in the latest update :)

Unfortunately, drawing over lock screen is not allowed unless I re-write the lock screen app itself!
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Update 1.5!

In this release

NEW:

1. Bubble drag actions - stop flippr or blacklist current app by dragging flippr to one of the drag action icons

2. Added shortcut to start/stop flippr

3. Long press widget to configure widget
[Android Apps and Games] Deathalo:
Love this app, but I'm having a weird problem with it on my tablet. When Flippr is running, a small black line appears in the middle of the screen, vertically. It's extremely annoying and would love to get a fix for this.
[Android Apps and Games] Pottertons:
Re-activating this thread for the sake of not starting a new one.

I've just stumbled across this app and it's just what i'm looking for. However, the furthest i can get is loading up the app for the first time.

- "No widget groups yet. Tap here to add." - I tap, nothing. Even after multiple taps

- I tap the '+' symbol in the top right, nothing happens, again, even after multiple taps.

- I tap the start icon and for the most part, nothing happens, but a couple of times, it has been triggered which then displays the little half bubble on my homescreen. However, when i tap on the half bubble it says "I do not have any items yet"

Here's a little vid to show what I'm referring to. Horrible footage but it was done on a whim.

[YOUTUBE]yPUdt6CsmG8[/YOUTUBE]

I'm using a rooted samsung galaxy S4 with Nova as my default launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] fen_nyc:
[MENTION=542022]potter[/MENTION], I'm sure you'll receive a response soon. The dev put the app on sale (50% off) today! (=
[Android Apps and Games] Pottertons:
Wasn't it always $1.50?
[Android Apps and Games] fen_nyc:
No clue. I saw this app on the Appsales app. Intrigued, I can totally use this, but never heard of it til now.

Downloaded the free demo & it freezes on the main screen. Can't add widgets. Sigh, I was on the verge of seriously buying the Pro version.
[Android Apps and Games] Pottertons:
Oh, so i'm not the only person with that problem then? Did you watch the video i posted on the previous page?

I'm currently communicating with the developer via emails about the issue. I'll update once they find a solution.

In the mean time, i've gone back to using 'wave launcher' which pretty much does the same thing but you can launch apps and other things as well.

By any chance, are you using a Galaxy S4?
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
I am looking into this guys. It seems to be an incompatibility (the material design changes) with Galaxy devices.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
Thanks for the email. You did give a hint on what the issue might be! That was helpful - I am looking into it. Yes, seems to be isolated to Samsung Galaxy devices.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
It was 2.49 regular and 1.25 on sale :)
[Android Apps and Games] Pottertons:
This is my first Samsung phone, and while it has been a great one, I have to admit that there's been quite a few moments where compatibility has been an issue with it's os or touchwhiz etc etc. Reckon i'll go with another line next time.
[Android Apps and Games] sreenisatish:
An update on the Galaxy issue - I have made some changes locally and have sent the APK files to the folks who reported the issue. If they confirm it is working, I'll push the update to the Play Store tonight.
[Android Apps and Games] jschall:
Running the PRO version on Samsung Galaxy Tab A, Android 5.0.2.

The widgets flip by too fast when I slide my finger horizontally. Is there any way to make the flip slower or less sensitive?

And there is no "Animations" option in the menu. Has it been removed?
[Android Apps and Games] XenRon:
Why does flippr stop working after sometime? Example, after I off my phone and on it after quite a long time, the marker disappears. When I enter the app, I found out that the flippr app is paused. Why is this so? I use a Samsung Galaxy A5, unrooted, with Nova Launcher and Lockr as the lockscreen.

Screen

With a 5.0 Inch HD IPS Screen ，the Blackview Crown stands out with a screen perspective. Nevertheless, it’s a good screen for the money. It’s not huge but it’s big enough to comfortably use.

More powerful than you’d think

The Blackview Crown has a 1.7 GHz Octa-Core MT6592 processor and 2 GB of RAM and ROM 16GB. Now, a Octa-Core processor is pretty great for such an affordable phone, but that amount of RAM might be setting off alarm bells.You won’t mistake it for a high end phone but nor are you likely to feel limited by its power or lack thereof.

Dual Camera

Blackview Crown ‘s camera has a 5 megapixel camera on the front and 13.0MP Back Camera

Battery life, memory and connectivity

The Blackview Crown has a 2200 mAh battery quoted for up to up To 4 hours of talk time or up To 180 hours of standby time, which compared to smartphones in general is average to just above average but for a low end phone it’s pretty good.Things aren’t so good when we come to memory, as the Blackvew Crown has 16GB of built in storage. There is two SIM card slots with support for cards of up to 32GB.

Early verdict

it’s a strong phone overall and an incredibly strong one for the price. Smooth performance, a decent screen, good battery life and a solid build quality makes this one of the best phones in its class.It’s certainly entering the market at a more competitive time, but there’s enough here to make it a strong and obvious choice if you’re shopping for a phone on a tight budget.

In all, the blackview crown is a nice smartphone, and there is also an original hat for me, and i also get the 8GB TF card and a leather case about the smartphone. Just enjoy it with me!

Hello glad to find a thread on Crown. I rooted mine easily with a software called Root Genuis (you can search it in Google). You can also backup the blackview Crown rom with à software called MTK DROID ROOT & TOOL

Other wise if you find a rom update or custom roms for crown, please notify it here.a I saw also that the galaxy note 3 rom was ported to the blackview jk805, It will be great if someone can do the same for the blackview Crown. :fingers-crossed:

Blackview Crown Rom

Ok great that it works, another tip I found at blackview's Facebook page (blackview.hk): in developper option(to activate it make many taps on build number until it says you are already a developper, then return back), you can change runtime to use ART, I tried it and my Crown becomes smoother and speeder, but some apps May not work with this runtime.

I also see something at chinaphonearena that seems like an update : 07/08/2014. my Crown build number is 12/07/2014.

How did you a ROM backup, using MTK DROID ROOT & TOOL? My Crown will not be found in MTK Droid Tool :(

PdaNetA4150 is installed, developers mode is enabled.
[Android General] Wahaz:
Crown Rom Backup

Hi first make sure you have the latest version of the tool v2.5.3 (it's the one wich works with mt6592 devices),

then prefer windows 7 in stead of Windows 8

enable debugging mode in developper option

very important: when your crown is detected, check in the left bottom corner a circle: if it is orange/yellow, click root button, it will turn to green

then you can go to backup step

I am also looking for a custom recovery for crown, if someone already install a custom recovery

How good is the battery life in terms of screen-on time?
[Android General] theoverfiend:
here my results

First impression very positive for the price ...

Pro:

GPS far the best I had in MTK's.

Gorilla glass

Antutu 26727 may still be improved but most only enough

RAM & ROM

negative:

accumulator

Touch reacts in the lower area poorly

KITKAT ... write right on SD bla bla

EBR adjusted to max. internal memory

Root via srjroot

Carliv Touch Recovery installed

SD Fix performed

Installed Xposed & Gravitybox

Drove two hours with Navi... and it runs really great.

No no jump ahead / beside the Track or lag behind.

After Tunel also again GPS signal.

Only the battery has sucked away in 2 hours 80%

my Naviapp was / is Sygic

Its a Great Phone ....

Conclusion: The purchase is worth it if you always have a charger nearby. Possibly can still be found somewhere / sometime a better battery
