Lg features for custom ROMs - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm contemplating flashing a ROM, but I was wondering, do they still have the lg features, like knockon and the quick remote?

I got the latest CM11 Nightly and knock-on works, knock-off doesn't. This can be fixed with nova launcher and screen off and lock though.
The IR remote isn't included in the nightlies but it can be downloaded as a flashable .zip file, I haven't got around installing it yet though.

Where did you find quick remote?

I'm using Paranoid Android and Quick remote works fine.
As for knock off that doesnt work, Knock on does. I worked around and got my own kind of Knock off.
What I did was I installed Desktop VisualiZer, Screen off and Lock, and a transparent image.
Add a Desktop VisualiZer widget where ever you'd like, Select the Transparent image as the icon, select the Screen off app (not the Screen Off and Lock config app) as the 'Action', and last remove the name for the widget. and you're done!
Here is where I have my 'Knock off' shortcut. I just double tap (or one tap) and the screen will turn off

Of you want rotating touchwiz, just install this app and set it in forced auto:

Thanks for the info, that's a nice feature! What are your overall thought on the app? Is it worth it and truly user friendly/stable? I've been watching this app with a lot of interest and think it may be time to shell out for it.

very smooth and fluid, better than the go launcher. Very good find.
Thnx a lot
I have a samsung car dock, and two things happen when I plug it in: SVoice pops up (on Kingdroid) and TW goes landscape after some applications (messing up with lock pattern not being visible).

I can fully recommend this app. It can lock the screen in the position you like. And it comes with a nice feature to preselect the rotation for certain apps. For example auto rotate for the camera.

Pull down quick launch icons...

Jus got my Nexus 4. So far I love it.
Coming from an S3 and a Note 2, I am very impressed. I would love to be able to add toggles to the drop down quick launcher. Can this be done without rooting and messing with Roms?
Thanks in advance.

You need root access and a custom that supports that feature.

If you want to change tiles in your quick settings then you need root and a custom rom.. If you are talking about toggles in your notification bar then no you dont need rood, just an app.
^ Which app will rpovide toggles in notification area?
You dont need custom ROM, install Power Toggles https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc

That's not for the drop down menu. To have customizable toggles in the notification shade he'll need root and a custom ROM.

It seems to work in the notification shade as well.

What ROM?

I'm unsure what rom or tweak I can use, I really like multi window, air view, and the watchon app is pretty sweet as well. I was wondering if I can just download the apks and install them on a non TW rom.. I'm currently running SlimBean.
All I really want is my flashlight and hotspot in the notification bar with the other toggles without having to use an app like power toggles and taking up notification space.
Another thing I used often on my other phone is the volume keys to skip songs.

and i want pigs to fly
mate you got 2 choices either go with TW Rom or AOSP
none of samsung apps or features would work on it for either missing drivers etc... or touchwiz framework
anyway why not just theme touchwiz the way you want instead its the only way to have samsung feautures+Aosp look together
I don't much care about the theming, just that I have those two buttons on a touchwiz rom really

If your on MDL touchwiz build you can use xposed framework to set up volume skip mod ad well as setting up torch to run off long pressing the brightness icon beside the brightness bar in the notification center

I tried xposed, I'd rather have a button for it, does 3minit allow adding more buttons?

I do use the same ROM - any customization of lock screen widgets natively are found at System Settings > My Device > Lock Screen > Lock Screen Widgets
If you want to regain the bottom shortcuts such as (Phone, Google, Messaging, etc) then make sure "Shortcuts" is checked.
If you're wanting the different 'pages' of widgets on the lock screen, make sure "Multiple Widgets" is selected.
But if you're running your own launcher that may have adjusted your lockscreen, I have no freaking idea.

Anybody received the customizable Google Search widget update?

Hello
I was looking for the customizable Google Search widget update when I first heard the news about it.
I have realized that I am now using much more recent version of the same. .
But I still could not get the overflow menu in the widget to customize it.
Did anyone got luck with that?
I am in the Google app beta and have it

I am not in the beta channel but having even more recent build of the same.
I didn't get any overflow menu to customize it.
Are you using stock launcher ?

Am i using incompatible version ?
I am not getting the overflow menu.
It seems to be tied to the main account on a phone. I just set up my partner's new S8 and the custom option appeared. Not on my S8 or G6. I don't think it's phone specific, but rather tied to an account that has it activated. Very frustrating.
