[Q] Questions about gpad GPE

Just got my lg gpad 8.3 gpe and had a few questions.
1. Is there a way to remove home screen pages Or do I always have to have 5?
2. I am trying to find a remote app but can't find one. I know on my s4 I have watch on. I was wondering if there is remote app I can download so I can use the ir blaster.
I would really appreciate the help. Thanks
I can answer about the home screen. Unfortunately you can't remove any screens, that's the limitation of the stock Android launcher, you can install the GEL launcher or any other launcher for that matter. I hear Apex is a very good replacement.
I would also be interested to find a working remote app, have tried but haven't found anything useful yet. Hopefully someone knows.

Apparently the IR-blaster in the G Pad is different from the likes found in HTC and the Note's.. Sadly, they only work on stock LG rom atm. For Google and LG to partner up and sell a device that will continue to not support it's own hardware seems retarded, I reckon it's a matter of time before LG does something about it..
Home screen pages, as mentioned above, is simply a limited feature of the new AOSP stock launcher, it sucks and it's ridiculous. I can't stand that launcher. There's not ONE customizable thing about it. Jesus.
.. Customizable isn't a word, is it?..

So what I'm hearing so far is download another launcher because the stock one sucks? Lol okay I'll try some out. Also what I'm hearing is there is no current way to use the ir blaster on my g pad? That's kinda hard to believe and dissapointing if true.

You could try Nova or Apex. Those are pretty heavy on customization.
I'm sorry, but you heard right. Here on my v500 with CM 11 rom I havn't been able to find any IR apps that works yet. :\ Even tried to flash scripts and QRemote and so on. It just doesn't take fully. No pairing with devices at all.
Another question;
does face detection work on the GPE?

Yeah seems to work normally.
And really confused why google hasnt put an app out for the ir blaster... I mean they advertise it on their tablet but make it impossible to use?
I just got my GPE too. After pulling the update and unlocking the bootloader , I started to set it up with Action Launcher, but ended up with Nova. Nova supports 4.4 's transparent notification bar--I like the look. I also like no icon labels.
I haven't messed with the IR blaster yet.

I really hope someone finds a way to use it. I'm really sad one Cuz its of the reasons why I got the gpad over nexus 7
The main area of the visible user interface (UI) that controls home screens and such - and it looks nice enough. It's not Nexus Android levels of clear, but you do get some fixes for those minor pure Android annoyances.

Request design All in one for LG G2

Hi, I really hope from xda developers design one xposed mod that collect all features from others mods that work fain with LG G2
for example
from Gravitybox we will found that all shrotcut work fine and very useful, immersive mod work,
from Xbalst tools we'll found contextual notification header panel work fain,
and just like that.
Ya that's not going to happen because each developer makes changes themselves ... The best two mods currently for our device specific are g2 tweaksbox and g2 xposed... These should cover pretty much anything you need

Very small question from a potential moto g5 plus buyer.

Hi guys! I'm a potential buyer of the moto g5 plus. Question. I see that stock moto fingerprint gestures (swipe for back, recents..) are super cool. Are custom ROMs​ implementing those too? Or at least is it a feature that people want? Having no software nav buttons is great.
Thanks for the answer.

G6 Tweakabox - is it available???

I sincerely miss using the tweaksbox options that I had on my G3, g4, and g5. Any way to get similar tweaks on the G6? I have the rooted us997 version. Included a link below to tweaksbox just for reference. I'd love to have the double-tap navigation bar to sleep option, as well as customizing navigation bar actions like double-tap recents or menu to assign an app or action. Thanks in advance to all!

Until now there is no tweaksbox for Nougat. P_Toti (the dev. of tweaksbox) has written in his thread for the LG G4 that he is very busy in his real life but when he find a little time there will be a possibility to make a version for Nougat.
Apart of this, there has never released an official version for the G5 but the G4 version has worked very well (with MM naturally). So until now it is not possible to say, which tweaks will work on a G6 in a future version.
Best regards

Fulmics rom has very similar tweaks.
