A: How to change front buttons - G2 General

Go into settings
tap menu button at the bottom -> Switch to tab view
Go to display tab, there is the "Front touch buttons". You can change the buttons and the color.
I could never find it in the list view.
This is useful on the verizon lg g2. Probably already tab view and easy to find on the other ones.

No need to change to tab view. It's under "Display".

Where do we change the lock screen apps on the bottom?

Yeah this would bother me also. I believe the only other option is a toggle notification button. So lame.

Also from home screen hit the menu button on the right and it'll say lock screen settings.

It'd not under lock screen. Can you check it out and try to change apps there.

These options are grouped into one, so if you see any of these icons, long press them and you should be able to select the HW to text feature.

Open up a Note template (not Memo as others have said) and long press on this box (there may be another picture in that button but long press the button in that location). This should open up a menu andyou choose the icon that with the letter T in the left bottom corner of a box.

Official LG Hidden Options

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...

[Q]

How do you get shortcuts on the lock screen?
Try swiping the clock from right to left. Can also swipe down to expand. And can go left to right to add pages widgets ect.

Security flaw in camera app?

Has anyone noticed that if you use the volume down button shortcut to access the camera app you can then use the home button to go directly to the home screen without unlocking? I am on a stock AT&T variant using the fingerprint scanner as the primary with pattern unlock as secondary. Seems like a pretty major security flaw... Does anyone have experience with other Android phones new that have a fingerprint scanner? Is this an Android issue, or an LG UX thing?
Sent from my LG-H820 using Tapatalk
I'm on Verizon and I use the same security set up as you do.
But I'm not seeing a home button when using the camera shortcut...all I see is the "back" button and when pressed, it takes me back to the lockscreen.

Mine functions the same as this.
If you swipe up from the bottom of the screen it becomes visible and you can then press it.

Ah, ok I see the home button now, but it still takes me back to the lock screen.
Not sure what the issue could be with yours though, but odd indeed.
Would a simple reboot help?
