Hello all,
I recently made the switch from VZW Note 3 to this amazing G3 & great T-Mobile service. I had been on 3 Sammy phones in a row. So I don't know many other brand-specific tricks.
Loved having control over LED with LightFlow app. But this phone isn't playing well.
Do I need to turn something on? Or off?
I'm Rooted (obv). Which if anything should help.
You can accomplish roughly the and thing with g3 tweakbox and a whole lot more.

Does anything need to be turned off in the phone's LED section? Maybe it's a Samsung thing, but I needed to turn that stuff off for app like LightFlow to work

NO dice... Using Hangouts, but with KK, whatever is set as the "default" should get the LED right??
So simple, yet so annoying. Hahaha
Hmm... Bummer. :/ sorry man. I saw the options in there. Never really looked to much into it. Not a function I use really.

Had LED access forever, that's all. I obv know my tone for texts. Just nice to glance down to know... Least I have my Android Wear for that!
Thanks again
Try Light Manager. I've been using that app without any problems.

^ Agreed. I use that app as well with no problems with the LED controls or use and it actually has a lot more variables and customization than Tweaks Box does.
I just don't like how the G3 doesn't let you customize any of the notification sounds as much as the Note 3 did....

Does the s2 have this option? If so where do I enable it? I hate having to keep turning on the phone to see if I missed any messages or notifications... Thanks
The T-Mobile variant does not have LED notifications. Its a bummer but it is what it is.
Edit: Solution below.

I'm sure once we have root you'll be able to use the main button LED's for notifications.

how did u get the super mario theme? ^-^
Okay, I got it to work... Now when the led shows. Is there another way to go straight to the app that the led came up for? Or do I have to dismiss it first, then power on phone?
Also, is there a way from preventing the screen to turn on/off when the message or miss call comes in... I just want the led to show, no light up
how much of a battery killer is this app? just wondering haha
Notification LEDs
Are there any notification leds on this phone? I have missed a few calls and received texts, but only found out after I powered back up from standby. I have only ever had HTC phones before, and they all had notification leds...any help would be great..TIA
Not at the moment. It would be awesome if we could make the soft keys flash to notify though!

I don't really miss the LED notification that much (although i think it would be nice to have). Having a soft key flash would be REALLY cool though
NoLed in market is a good app, using it now.. lil led notifications pop up on screen, when phone is on like standby.. try it out

Better to ask these questions in the Noled forum on xdA, talk to the Dev
Just type in Noled theme in xda forum search.

Thanks didnt know that...
I wish they'd have put the same blue LED they put in the sprint model... I like blue :/
Since there isn't an LED light specifically for notifications, is there a way to make the LEDs for menu, home, back, and search light up for said notifications? It would be even better if each one lit up for specific apps so I could know why it's lighting up before I even turn on the screen.
Thanks for any help!
My suggestion would be NoLED.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing, but was hoping one could take advantage of the buttons' LEDs.

The closest we can get to LED notifications is BLN. You need to use a BLN compatible kernel and use the app BLN Control.

I'm trying to tweak some things on system tuner and my phone rebooted (but took a bit to turn on) my blood pressure dropped, I thought I killed my phone!
But after some reading.. it pretty much means the phone does not like those settings, change them.. right? Phone works fine now though, but I was wondering for future reference

Yeah, basically. If you are undervolting, you need to take tiny increments to make sure the phone is stable before going any further.

Has anyone else noticed that there a noticeable lag when turning off the screen? The slight fade out animation seems to stutter and there is about a 1-2 second delay from when i press the power button to it actually doing something. This is probably one of the weirdest places for a phone to lag.
Anyone else have this problem?
I'm running on stock rooted BTW.
EDIT (more info): This doesn't happen right after a factory reset. I takes a bit of time for it to happen which makes it seem like some app messing it up, but it happens even if there isn't anything installed besides the default stuff.

Could you link them? I looked in the Q&A section and didn't find anything. The search feature is currently down so I cant use that. If this is in fact a duplicate thread, then I'll get it closed up.

Howdo everyone,
I briefly had an LG G2 at the start of the year (a week till i sent it back to orange) but i really liked the various option on the camera. ive now got the G3 but find that there is virtually nothing in the camera other than the basics? Am I missing something or is this on purpose? Is there any way of installing the camera app from the G2 onto the device that offers these options?

It's set to default point and shoot.. choose the three dots menu and there you can change things (yes it's not as functional as past devices apparently - seems to be a common complaint currently.)
LG tried to reduce their bloat by taking out things that most people do not normally use. For example I had a Note 3 which had 10-15 different camera options not including filters, I never used any of them expect for HDR mode. I'm glad that LG removed all of the unnecessary features, but they should have allowed users to optionally install them. LG also should have added in a way to turn off the shutter noise without us using tweak box.

They do this because it's illegal in some areas to turn off the camera noise.....

I know, but I still wish you could turn it off like on the Note 3. I like running ART so I uninstalled tweak box.

With the G3, you can completely silence the shutter sound if you turn the phone volume completely off

I have a UK LG-D855.
Just tried it again, it definitely works on mine. You have to turn the volume down on the home screen, then open the camera as the volume buttons take a photo on mine.

Must be. I would have thought the UK would have been the opposite though.
UK Phones allow camera shutter to be turned off. - Most asian and other EU models don't allow it due to legalities.
just go to /system/media/audio/ui and delete all camera sounds. done. sound gone.
Does anyone know a way to remove this annoying pop up wanting you to agree to t&s.

If i just agree with them this is the outcome i come up with. As you can see my quick toggles completely dissapear. Also i know i can swipe it away but it keeps returning.
