DPI on the G3

I personally think the DPI is to big on the stock version of G3, has anybody successfully decreased it to anything under 380dpi?

You need to root and use the app Texdroid. The stock DPI is around 650ish (can't remember exactly).

Is it not due to the QHD display that the DPI is so big?

Yeah, I've used texdroid to change it. I used Towelroot to root. Very easy. Everything works fine.

Give 590 a try for the DPI. As I wait for my G3 to arrive I've been reading up on changing the DPI on the phone as that will be the very first thing I do after rooting. I've been reading around that people have been testing anywhere from 500-650 with mixed results but 590 seems to be the perfect sweet spot in getting everything to look the proper size without losing any functionality.
If I had my phone I'd try it. But if someone wants to go ahead and give it a go, I'd be curious to hear about the results from you guys.

I'm using 530. Perfect for me. Followed setting from G2 where I went from 480 to 400 (17% decrease)

Good deal. Nothing is broken for you at this setting?

If using stock launcher any DPI but stock 650 will cause apps to FC when opened. Plus it'll green Android some of the LG Apps like contacts, phone, camera etc. Works fine on Nova and Apex just not stock.

New qpair for g pad

Is it possible if we can get the new qpair app in the g pad 8.3 which allows you to answer call from you tablet?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app

Which tablet has new qpair app? Maybe some talented dev can try and port it. I use qpair and also wish it could answer, and ringing from the tablet via contacts would be amazing!

The new tablet from lg have that feature. Lg g pad 7, 8 and 10. Sure it would be possible to port it to g pad 3
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app

We have to ask a dev to do this, it is not as simple as just replacing .apk
I would do it myself but i have no experience in that lol

Yh I think they need to do it, if they can port different roms on to it and even Change operating systems on some devices then surely they can port a very much the same app that already exists in the g pad.

Three LG software updates - July 25th

I had auto updates on so my phone only told me that three updates were done in the Update Center. No log of what they were.
Anyone know?

Those are not system updates, they are the LG apps that got updated like lg keyboard and other stuff from LG. Not sure why they can't put in the play store like HTC, Motorola instead of having one more useless app store like Samsung.

No one said they are system updates.
Software updates from the LG Update app. I already did the Keyboard update days before, so it wasn't that.
3 other packages were updated.

It's not an app store like Samsung, it's just an internal update system. The two are really different.

I don't care for the keyboard update. It messes up a lot of the auto correct.

I find the update did better for autocorrect than it did before plus I love seeing the word I am swiping go through the transition.

Try typing the word "you'd". Does it recognize it? Also, try ending a sentence with the word "at" and then type a period. Does it switch it to e.g.?

Why would we want a keyboard to decide what you should be saying?
I have an English degree and I frequently use intentionally bad grammar for various reasons. This is a huge reason I can't use Swiftkey either. Both of them are hell-bent on turning your typing into a single style with a concrete set of rules and patterns. Let ME decide what I want to say.

YouTube 1440p gone?

So few weeks back or whatever I remember when YouTube updated and with the G3 we could watch some videos in 1440p. Than they updated the app to 10.whatever and took that option away from us, though still available on pc.
Well you were able to roll back to before they took it away to version 5.9 and get 1440p viewing back.
Well, that worked for me and could watch them perfectly fine, and they looked stunning!
Well. I just went in YouTube tonight to show a buddy of mine, and every single video was max 720p. Even the designated videos for 1440p that I watched many times were maxed 720p. I'm still on version 5.9, so nothing changed there
Did Google do something behind closed doors? The option still there for pc.
So any ideas, or if anyone else can check and see if they are maxed at 720p. Can you post here?
Thanks everyone! Hope someone has an idea howto fix! The 1440p on the G3 was absolutely stunning on this screen.

Seems that Google is being stingier worth bandwidth all of a sudden. Well, I had reverted to the earlier version with 1440p but just decided eff it and now have it updated for whatever might be next.

Here you go this should give you back 1440p.

What does it do when you try?
I know before when I had the option it seemed like I couldn't select it but that was only because my network speed wasn't fast enough. As soon as I got in the sweet spot in my house for the fast lte it switched to 1440p. So maybe that's what you're experiencing?
I was getting mad when it wouldn't let me pick it, just speed in my case. Now I don't even get the option for it.

You are a gentleman and a scholar good sir!!!
No idea what was so different... I uninstalled my 5.9, installed yours, and wala... 1080p and 1440p is back!
Exactly like I said earlier. It will work for you, you just have to have really fast speed for it. You'll click it and it wont select it it will stay at whatever it was at, but as soon as you get fast enough speed it will switch over to your selection.
1440p takes a loooot of juice to play.
Mine would only play when I am at ~25mbs
