Sweet! That's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!
[Verizon LG G3] zakkyzombie:
Okay, I'm not a noob to android, by no means. But I am with LG. And somewhat to Verizon.

But my question is- in the latest update 12B, I think, they added in lte calls. What does that mean exactly?

Also, they updated LG apps. Why aren't these apps in the play store, or why doent LG have it's own store/updater?

It's been over 4 years since my last LG

Okay, the title sounds like I'm making a confession. But, my last LG was the LG Vortex and I still have that phone. Putting it side by side with the G3 is hilarious. It's so small and it's still got Android 2.2 on it. Plus, it has Bing search and Maps on it. :eek:

In any case, after the G3, I was on a Motorola kick for awhile (Droid X2, RAZR, RAZR MAXX and RAZR HD). The RAZR HD was the best as it had a true bootloader unlock with it via an exploit. So, I was one happy flashing puppy. Recently, I had been running Lollipop on it, but it was time for an upgrade and Verizon had a great deal on the G3 online that I couldn't pass up, so here I am.

So far, even though it's not running Lollipop (officially), I'm real happy with this phone. So, I'll keep reading and learning the ins-and-outs of this phone. It's really hard coming from Motorola phones as those have a different way of doing things. Plus, having a true unlocked bootloader has spoiled me because no root exploits were needed. I flashed TWRP and then within TWRP, I could flash SuperSU and I was done, no matter what.

So, I have to remember now that if I flash back to stock, I have to first run Stump root and then I can flashify bumped TWRP. Still, nice to have the ability to flash custom ROMs and kernels. Hopefully, LG/Verizon never take that option away from us, but I wouldn't be surprised if it happens when the official LP comes out.

Thanks to all the devs that have put in a lot of effort towards this phone.

It's voice over lte. Basically voip. Call clarity improves supposedly. Also LG apps are their own "bloat" or designed to work with the g3 or LG phones....if you will. I'm running jas 4.0 and hsbadr has broken the Rom up into a core debloated and you can add the additional "packages" in via flashable zip.

LG Smart World App

It looks like someone may have already done this, the smart world app was discussed here:

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/app-lg-smart-world-global-f400x-t2840614

I am working to test copying the apk from my tablet to my VS985 and see if it works. However based upon the above thread, it looks like it may need modifications.

--Added further info below here--

After further digging, you can simply download the Official LG App Store from here (copied from the UK smartworld page that I found)

1. Please connect to 'www.lgworld.com' on your smart phone browser or (qr code) I found these instructions here:

http://uk.lgworld.com/web.member.selectPhoneModel.dev

So check unknown sources, point your browser at www.lgworld.com and then click the download button that pops up, then you will have the official smartworld app installed on you VS985.

-- Further Info --

The official version does not come with the additional update program, just the store. This does not appear at first glance to be a path that allows VS985 users to get LG core app updates (keyboard, launcher etc).

[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
quick note to anyone changing fonts:

it would be wise to make a nandroid before using fonts you havent tried before.

i have seen others, and had it happen to me, that not all fonts are compatible with all devices. this usually results in an instant bootloop, on reboot to install.

just fyi :)

[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
i have never tried that app, but unless its installing them wrong, not all of them should be an issue. its usually the more crazy or detailed ones.

i have installed several with rom toolbox pro without issue.

i dont know how to make apps, but i suspect you could find an open source font app and tweak it to our device. the real work would likely be rounding up all the fonts and testing every one, as to not add any into the app that are incompatible with our device.
[Verizon LG G3] markfm:
I ran a handful of fonts before posting about iFont, but wouldn't be surprised if someone else has issues. I tried two of the more normal faces, three of the script style, though nothing too exotic.

Eclipse
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Oh yeah. I ran Eclipse on my X2 and Droid RAZR MAXX. All the Eclipse stuff is AOSP-based now. The only thing that I would be wary of is the camera since so far, it appears all the AOSP cameras are awful. The stock camera with the G3 is really nice at taking pictures and I want to continue to be able to do that.

Still, to have Eclipse coming for this phone is awesome.
[Verizon LG G3] nitroglycerine33:
Actually none of my builds have been AOSP based. I remove all the OEM software and replace them with AOSP counterparts. I leave the goodies such as the camera as they are more functional than AOSP.

It is going to be a while until I can build something for the G3. I didn't even have the phone eight hours before I broke it. I was flashing back to stock and my two year old unplugged the device. No download mode, recovery, etc...
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:

After a month - I wish the knock feature was more comprehensive, loving it otherwize

I liked the specs even after all the new phones are out, screen is not too dim for the Florida sun, and I saved hundreds since the G3 is half a year old. I also wanted SD card and replaceable battery and not cr*pwiz. But overall I have to say I love LG's software much better than touch wiz and even vs a lot of the ROMS, stable, no crashes yet, no widget calendar freezing like touchwiz, my z-wave's responsiveness to commands is fast, Camera has a gallery link in the app after you take a picture unlike Cyanogenmod, messaging app could use a back button vs having to use the system pop up key to go to the main screen with everyone's threads. Mutiicon would freeze widgets on CM11 and Gummy rom, easy to root and take out bloat, and much more.

I really do miss hard keys though especially while in the camera app, or other apps where you need to quickly go home but have to swipe around to get the keys to pop up. I bought the Note 2 vs the nexus back then bc it had hard keys, knew how it would suck without, and now still miss them.

It sucks there is no knock available while in an app. The power button on the back makes it inconvenient to close your screen quickly so I added an auto screen off when turned over or in the pocket. For example I may want to stay on a webpage or in my google Keep notes while at Home Depot, but also turn the screen off to save battery, and have easy access to look at the list again- options are to fumble for the button on the back which is easier one handed, but two handed means your fingers won't rest near the button, or an app to auto turn off the screen. It's annoying like missing things in a ROM that keep you searching for that perfect ROM.

Anyone try to turn off the screen while it's in your car docks without going to the home screen, ha good luck. Now I need a dock short enough to allow for the buttons on the back, arg. Now that I think about it, the only choice is getting to the home screen and using knock while using wifi charging.

They didn't think that one through

-I use my phone to control my theater (lights, volume, movie control, even AC/heat, and at times don't need the app to be closed. Anyone know of a knock feature while in an app?
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
My chosen AOSP ROM (Illusion) has double-tap-status-bar to turn the screen off, which can be done from anywhere (in addition to double-tap-to-wake of course). Doesn't help on a stock ROM though.
[Verizon LG G3] anonymously:
Seems like the majority of lp ROMs offer that feature. And I can't remember if it was Jasmine or the exposed framework offered a setting to double tap the nav bar to turn screen off. I wish the lp ROMs would incorporate this. Status bars too far out the way.
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
double tap anywhere while in an app is not practical in the least. there are many scenarios where tapping the screen would shut it off unintentionally while just intending to use the app. games would likely have the most conflicts.
[Verizon LG G3] stewbuntu:
I agree, just seeing what you guys do. The screen off in pocket app get annoying in landscape bc you finger gets close to the proximity sensor and turns the screen off, otherwise its pretty good.
[Verizon LG G3] jfriend33:
you can use screebl pro. it has pocket detection to turn your screen off. you could also possibly figure out some tasker integration ....

i know for me i use greenify donate, and i can swipe up from home instead of it launching google now, it hibernates the apps i chose, and locks the screen and turns it off. thats what i do to turn the display off when docked.

i have been using illusion for a few days. i really like having 5.0.2 and since softcard/isis ran out of good promos i have no need to stay on kit kat for xposed and root cloak. i havent flashed roms since my galaxy nexus almost 2 years ago. i tried official cm 12 and it was a horrible experience. nothing was working right at all.

illusion has been pretty problem free. occasional issues like ambient display arent working but other than that its great. really good battery life 4 hrs up to 5 hrs screen time easily. and no idle drain.
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
There is a setting in illusion to disable the proximity detection.

So gravity was annoying bc it used the camera as a proximity sensor so in landscape I often would be typing and the phone would turn off thinking it was in my pocket.

Update on quickest way to lock screen in a car dock or one handed and still visually see its off (versus flip over gesture that is):

I got sick of it being in the car dock w. A low battery the other day and having no way to turn the screen off to charge faster after turning on pandora/maps/or some other app for example which I would want to stay in/ etc. So I started searching again for a way to lock the screen while in an app. Get "Screen off and lock" app = Long press the home button softkey and it turns the screen off . Thats it :) when typing one handed you also dont have to rotate your pointer finger under to close as well, just long press home w ur thumb. Its great when shopping for my project lists in a store while leaving google keep open to the list, but save battery or pick up something, then knock to see the next item on the list.

Need twrp for Lollipop

Verizon upped my G3 to Lollipop and trashed it of course. So I was able to root and thought I had right TWRP on, but it won't go to Bootloader now. just flashes Red and Blue LED. What do I need to flashify on it to get to allow me to install a rom?
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
I'd recommend using the KDZ method and going back to 10B. Root using ioroot, install TWRP via adb, then use TWRP to wipe internal storage and flash SkyDragon from an SD card. Sorry I don't have time to look all of that up to link right now, but you can find it easily enough.
[Verizon LG G3] TheGOAT232412:
I just received my G3 a week ago and it came with 4.4.2 installed on it, after seeing multiple responses in regards to the Lollipop update I am a little hesitant with upgrading to 5.0 because of the negative reviews that I have been reading. I am currently on VS98512B and I want to root the device so that I am able to install TWRP and flash ROMS. This is my first LG device and after countless hours of reading for the past week I am still trying to figure out the best way to obtain root and flashing a custom recovery. To the above post, is this the easiest way to go about rooting my device since I am on 4.4.2 already? I noticed there is also a one click root tool for this device but if I understood correctly it is only compatible with the LG G3 on 5.0. Any information or links in regards to my questions are very much appreciated and my apologies for the noobness in my post. This is definitely not my first rodeo with rooting an android device but it is the first time I am rooting the LG and I am still trying to get familiar with a lot of terminology.
