sorry if this is a silly question. I have managed to sync my contacts list with facebook pictures... but is there a way to show the status upsates of my facebook friends in the phones contacts list.?
It should display the updates automatically, it is showing the status on my phone contacts. I get a preview in the contacts list then if I select the contact I see full status.

I've seen it in a dialer from the X10. Some versions had this option. Not even all. Or they removed it. Not our XPS. Maybe in ICS.

That's strange. My phonebook won't display the statusupdates. :S
Is it a setting in Facebook? That you have to set certain permissions?
All I've done is within Facebook app sync all contacts then also add my account details to Xperia inside Facebook.

Found it!
Strange enough you need to add the facebook-widget at a homecreen. After that the option is not greyed out under Contacts->Setting
Good to hear you've sorted it

Hi Guys, i am starting this thread to share some of the Official LG hidden options which have been overshadowed by a race of themes, patches, custom roms, etc to make your device better. I've found these hidden options after fiddling around with my device for hours and I was surprised to know it was there the whole time and I was unaware about it. I know many of us will be surprised but would also like to:good: Invite people to share if they know they have found a secret inside their device.
Changing Homescreen Icons:
This is the pictures of my Homescreen before the change:
Steps-1
Press & hold icon for 2 secs & then release. as you release you'll see a small paint brush picture on the top of the icon. When you see that quickly tap the Icon again.
Step 2:
Now you can choose icons from the presets or use our own picture from the phone by clicking on CREATE PHOTO ICON.
Step 3:
Now select the icon picture from your gallery and done! :laugh: :good:
Wow!
OMG! I Surprised. But i don't think that its HIDDEN.
But Nice.
Ya may be not for you but i thought sharing would be nice.
woooow. that's a secret!

That seems like a setting you wouldn't want to mess with.
Just because a setting can be changed, doesn't mean it should be.
Having used AOSP for the past year, it's taking me some time to get used to the LG features, but it's interesting.

If anyone wants to get qslide out of the notification tray, I found a guide on androidcentral that worked.
To remove qslide from your notification tray...
First, pull down the notification tray, then in the quick setting at the top, scroll to the right and look for qslide. If you have it, toggle it and qslide will go away. If you don't have it in quick settings already, select edit and add it in. Then go back and toggle it, then return to settings and remove the qslide toggle. Qslide will be gone like it should be and we will have world peace!

You can turn off auto dimming without root, the option is under settings -> display
it's not auto brightness though. it's something completely different.

U talking about thermal throttling that when it gets a certain temp, it dims they display? This can be turned off in the service menu ....
Open dialer, and type 3845*#800# I always turn off thermal throttling that dims ur display when phone gets over 100 degrees. Do this by going to High temperature property off, and thermal deamon mitigation off, and enable them both...
That is the code for the at&t version. The 800 between the #'s is the model number, so Verizon guys would insert there model there...

Has anyone had issues getting the one handed (smaller screen view) working? I am stock unrooted and I have checked the box in settings to allow one handed access on all screens. I've watched all of the videos about how to make it work by swiping from off the screen edge and off again in one motion without lifting your finger and it still won't activate. I'm running nova launcher and I tried in the browser and several other apps with no sucess. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to make sure you have it turned on. When I got my phone, on Saturday, by default it was off.

Thanks for the help folks. I had an app that required accessibility to be turned on. Accessibility will stop the screen shrink from working. Turned it off and all is good.
I know what it's like to have a million questions that can't be answered because no one has it on display and no one can get their hands on one. Well I'm holding mind, just grabbed it right now. If you have questions I can answer them.
I also have an iPhone XS Max and a Note 10+ so if you want me to compare things such as screen brightness or speaker loudness, let me know.

Nope, no setting, just use 3 fingers and drag from the right to the left of the screen (right screen) and whatever is on the right screen will transfer over to the left screen.

No. The closest approach I could find wasn't automated.
Settings > Display > Screen colour
Apply to Dual Screen - On
Then, I think 'Web' is the least harsh with blue light of the preset profiles.

No Twilight does not work. It only shades the main display and does nothing to the secondary display.
You can split apps by 1/4:3/4 or 1/2:1/2 ratios on the main display but on the secondary display you can only have one app (the recent apps button is greyed out. When you're not in split view on the main display, the recent apps button is normal).

LG had a really good thing going with this device and then just didn't follow through as usual. In many ways it's superior to something like the galaxy fold so it had a lot of potential.
I mean they couldn't even get the keyboard right of all things. Their software always falls soooooo short, it's so disappointing. I hope they don't wonder why their sales are always in the tank.
This coupled with the hardware flaws is just the nail in the coffin. I will say though that the phone itself when outside the case is actually a very nice piece hardware wise. I wish the dual screen case was as polished as the device itself. That coupled with a polished software experience would have been the ticket.
This really could have been the device to put them back on the map, so it's a shame they blew it.
It sucks because I was using it on T-Mobile. It has full coverage with bands/wifi calling etc.... Can't look pass that screen.
