Is the UI a little like HTCs? XD
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk

Yeah. Mostly the home button. The other back and multitasking button is unrelated to HTC.

Cool I will make theme using this soft keys soon

I put my trust in Sony to make it better than aosp lollipop.
It's still gonna be material, sadly, but maybe they can do it better, they usually do.

it looks like htc softkeys.I dont like htc softkeys

Yeah. But i prefer them over the Kitkat softkeys.

Why you need to post this everywhere @lgv2800 like in Z2 forum also ?
That is duplicating buddy !

Because, my intention in the beginning was to inform Xperia users about the good news where i put it in the Z2 forum. But not everyone checks the Z2 forum and after all this update is for all Z users. Therefor i posted it also here.

Some guys on Androidpolice thinks that they changed the home button from circle to home, because of Playstation home.

Yeah. Look at these photos.

PlayStation Home? Surely they could have used something a bit more memorable, like...

At the end of the day, you can just apply a theme to change the buttons. No biggie.

Found these, real or fake???

Wow, thanks a lot! I also downloaded #4. It would be nice if the "It just works..." text would stay a second longer, though.
EDIT: Also the custom parts loops infinite instead of starting the whole bootanimation again. This means the text is showing repeatedly. I think this is not intended?
Great work, love the simplicity of number one.
very cool. testing #3 right now
Great work as always

Cataclysm Higher Quality dots + Plat Bootanimation aDDED!
@enricocid This is awesome my only suggestion would be to make the catacalysm logo pulse slower and add the higher quality dots to the first animation.
Cataclysm Higher Quality dots + Plat Bootanimation Logo Fixed Added in OP!

I need time, but i will add higher quality dots also to previous boots
Did you fix the repeated "It just works..." already? Also would it be possible to double the size of the XX part?

@EnricoD as you may already know our friend @atl4ntis is back at it again with a lollipop release. Is there anyway you can update this thread with a new lollipop boot. Thanks in advance. Have a good one.
Haha. I was wondering the same thing yesterday when I found the download links were dead.

I have an idea for a new boot...
But i do not have much time and a powerful pc available ... Consider I have a netbook now...
I can get gimp/pinta on my netbook and do it in my free time, but you have to wait a little

That's a little video preview, there are few errors to fix

Note: the video is wrong because the initial glow should be at the end of the boot ..

I received it today morning. May be we getting closer for KitKat
It's not the first apk update we're getting where 4.4/kitkat is mentioned in the changelog.
About 4 weeks ago there was another album update with exactly the same changelog, so let's wait until the D6503 has been presented
sent from the 1
Well, I think we will get 4.4 in six month (here in Germany) ;(

Will Kit Kat enable 20 mp in 16.9 for the camera?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't think that is possible due to the limitation of the sensor, when cropping to 16:9 the 20.7MP area, it wouldn't be 20.7MP anymore.
the 4:3 is 5248x3936
16:9 at 20.7MP would be 6060x3409 or around there, while the height would fit, the length of would not, missing around 700ish pixels on the length to make it 20.7MP 16:9. Would need at least a 27.6MP or so 4:3 sensor to get 20.7MP 16:9.
Perhaps kit kat will enable 20.7MP 4:3 in superior mode for the rest of the world.
That would be nice if they could do that and I understand what you are saying in regards to the pixels needed for full 20mp 16.9.
I hope KitKat won't drain the battery as I am finding it excellent with 4.3 and just coming upto 4 days and 18% remaining that's with over 8 hrs talk and taking a few pics and so on.

G3 Lollipop update in few weeks [screenshot]

We knew LG is going to release it before end of the year, but as we can see work on the update is in advanced state already.
Screenshot shows that interface isn't going to be changed dramatically. IMO that's a good thing.

If they were going to release a rom before the end of 2014 (less than 2 months away) they were always going to have the rom in a near complete state by the middle of this month at the latest.
Mixture of lg's ui and lollipop's ui...
It is awkward
I have a feeling it's going to be a horrible mess of elements.
I doubt about "a few".... 2 or 9 . Anyway, this is a good new.
Oh man. That quick settings panel looks horrible. I hope the finished product doesn't carry those Optimus UI elements.
Jesus, that's terrible looking.
LG
Please dont use this disgusting color in lollipop
It is not appropriate color for lollipop
Why the softkey doesn't change ?
It's not final.
I don't know why are you telling it looks horrible. G3 UI is flat and fits material design. Notifications look same as on N5 + quick settings. Nothing horrible here imo...

There are already Lollipop KDZs for the F400 variants out there now! You gotta pay for them on this site but Im sure they will surface "other" places very soon
http://www.lgbbs.net/forum-65-1.html
Honestly I wished LG would provide us a more "vanilla" look... Apart from the introduction screen and notification panel not much seem to have change graphically :/
Just hoping it's not the final look
I just wish they would forget about updating to Lollipop and concentrate all of their available resources on properly optimising what we already have.
Oh god i am so hyped.

I'm a bit confused. Does anyone know if we get an OTA 5.0 rom provided by OnePlus or a CM12(s) rom? Or does that info come on 12 februari?

We should get a CM 12S ROM via OTA. The newly announced ROM is for places like India where cyanogen and oneplus have have been having issues with agreements. It will most likely be available for all for download though.
Good cause a big reason I bought this phone was to have cyanogen as stock ROM.
We can probably stick with whatever ROM you're using and you'll get OTA for it. But if you're already on CM and want to switch, I assume you'll need to flash OP's ROM before you can get OTA from them. I don't think there will be a CM -> OP ROM migration path.

Let's see if they do what they say.
They've leaked some screenshots of OxygenOS, nothing too exciting--just the app drawer and weather app.

If that screenshots are real and that will be the official OxygenOS appearence, i will bet all in CM12s. At first looks, it's ugly IMO.

Can't really tell that much from the pics to be honest. Im guessing you could probably use nova and an icon pack if things dont look that nice. Plus in the pics it looks like the hardware buttons are being used, would like to see the dock and nav buttons. Will probably being going with the one in the video below anyway this, guessing that this is CM12S as it looks a lot more like stock 5.0.

The kernel information says cyanogenmod so i think this video is a teaser of the upcomming CM12(s) rom. They have edited the description of the movie because it said oxygenos first.

Although the apps that show in the drawer pretty much confirm it, as there appears to be apollo music app, dsp app, etc.

WHERE IS THE N9860 ONE UI 3.1 UPDATE?

If only gestures worked perfectly, right now it's a quick flashing every time you swipe to go home when using Google gestures.
You don't get the flashing if you wait around 1-2 second before touching the screen after swiping home.
I don't know, I don't use gestures.

Yep, stuck at verifying phone number but I remember I had the same problem on 3.0 and then it fixed by itself later..
Let's see if same thing will happen. I got snapdragon.
Gotta say the phone feels much smoother again. There were always some hick ups with 3.0 for me even after factory reset.
Now it feels just like 2.5 where everything is smooth and this is without factory reset. I would recommend everyone to update.

After many days trying to verify the number, rcs works for me now.
It's the same when I updated to 3.0, took few weeks or something and then it just magically activated and works.
