The title is pretty much self-explanatory. Is there a way to set Quick Circle Clock as Daydream but without actually having the Quick Circle case? I don't like the default daydream clock and the quick circle clock is just beautiful but I don't like to use cases on my phone.
Yes, a very good idea but I think LG wants the sales of it's Quick Window cases to stay high so that's why they didn't add it to the DayDream setting originally. Hopefully they will do it in a future update?

ive been thinking same thing.. maybe some dev brings it to our phones...?
If you put a magnet on the left of the screen near center while phone screen off it will enable circle clock

+1 to have a Dev look at this.
I'd really love to install one of the watch face for my lock screen clock!

Been searching for that too, since I just downloaded some custom Clock Theme for my LG G3.

Anyone find a way to do this on the G3 or G4 even?
I don't know how, but two times happened with me that the clock appeared.
First time my wife just put down the phone onto the table, second time I just took it out from my pocket.
Firstly I didn't know what I see, but after some search on the internet I recognized that it is the quick circle clock.
I've checked it and found that it's enabled in the settings.
I don't know how it could happen, but I think somehow my phone recognized something like a quick circle case.
I don't know which sensor is used by the case, I have tried to hide the front sensors, I tried to use my Samsung S4 case too, but I couldn't reproduce it.

The case has a magnet and the phone picks up using a Magnetic Sensor

Not sure if this is possible but I would pay to see an app/mod that allows only the status bar to be displayed when the screen is off. I had Pandora hang on me this morning with a black screen and just the status bar visible and it showed all the info I need to know at a quick glance. Hope this is the right section, debated on weather this should be in the General section but mods move if you wish.
So you wanna shut off 95% of the screen only? Highly unlikely.

With the Super AMOLED Plus display, black color = pixel off (screen off for that part) so If there is way to wake the screen and show a black screen with just a notification, what the OP wants IS possible... I think some apps have the ability to wake the screen, i think the issue is the lock screen would show, no?

There is something for the Nexus S becasue it doesn't have the LED light. I think it's called "no led" or something similar on the Market. It will display notifications on the screen while the phone is sleeping.
+1, Just get NoLed from the market...

I had that app for my NS4G and thats not what I want nor did it work very well.
But NoLED is where I got the idea from. If they can display that info why can't someone write an app that displays just the notification bar?
Thank you japper88 for clarifying the screen tech to the 2nd poster.
A black background for all but the notification would be fine but a) the lockscreens gonna show unless you find a way to disable it completely which would then go straight to your homescreen and b) i wouldnt think you could keep 95% of the screen off which is what your asking to do isnt it? If so i dont care what screen you have i highly doubt thats possible.
Maybe modding the lockscreen with a black wallpaper and removing the clock would work.
Sent from a Galaxy far far away...
Again, when the screen displays black #000000 the pixels are off. That is the beauty of the SAMOLED+ screen. It is also like that with the SAMOLED used in the NS4G. It is possible to do what I'm asking. Just need some direction from another section on this board witch is what I'm doing. I will post here when I get it working.

Sounds like a good solution until someone writes an app. Also add missed it app for sleek customizable missed call/text/email app

I'm trying to find a decent desk/night/alarm clock app to use with my Nexus. I'd like to just totally get rid of my alarm clock radio and just use my phone. There's plenty of them out there, but the problem I'm having is finding one that has a decent screen saver function. I want to be able to see the clock through the night, but have it dim the screen and rotate the clock face around so it doesn't burn in on the screen.
Wakevoice is "almost" what I am looking for. The clock dims and rotates around the screen, but the navigation buttons don't turn off or dim at all.
Any suggestions? Or should I not worry about screen burn in with this phone?
What's wrong with the stock clock app? It does everything on your wish list.

I agree, I ditched my alarm clock a couple months ago and use the stock deskclock apk for my alarm/nightclock. It does everything needed and mentioned above.

Try doubletwist alarm. i m happy with it so far

The Doubletwist Alarm looks amazing, only thing, I might not be looking in the right settings but, I can't find an option to keep the screen awake in the app. That would make this app near perfect...

How about Gentle Alarm?

Hi,
I really miss daydream since having the quickcircle case.
You can turn on daydream but once you close the door it turns the screen off. If the screen could somehow be set to stay on when in daydream mode Im sure it would be very easy to make a quick circle daydream using an existing daydream app that supports themes.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I have never understood the point of daydream, but i'm really interested in new clocks and apps for the QuickCircle.

I'm hoping this will come in a future update or mod. I would like to see the circle clock through the case at all times while charging...I am a bit surprised this was not integrated with daydream at launch. Also hoping other apps will support quick circle like Spotify. Though to be honest, since i'm also using android wear, I'm not going to get much use out of the case other than screen protection and wireless charging most of the time.

Maybe one day someone does a xposed mod for it. It'd be intresting and i can give it a try

the problem is that we don't know where the quickcircle main ui is being saved once that is found it would be a lot easier (my guess is lgsystemui or lglockscreen, but I don't have the time to investigate)
Has anybody thought about finding a way to use the G3 circle case widget on the G3 without the circle case?
Might be cool, double tap the screen and the circle ring would glow and show notifications....I think its a hardware magnet of some sort that triggers it but the software should still be able to work?
This is actually a pretty neat idea. I'd be interested in having these features as well.
Sent from my LG-D850
Played around with a magnet on the side and could trigger it on/off and it was cool. i wish I had the skills to do it.
After rooting the ATT 810 G4, I figured I'd go ahead and change the DPI settings through the build.prop. This has been a great improvement of the UI experience, however it looks like the QuickCircle app becomes unusable. Just wondering if anyone else has changed the DPI setting and knows how to keep the normal DPI setting for the QuickCircle app. It seems like per app DPI would be the way to go, but I'm not quite sure how to achieve that right now on the G4. Many thanks in advance!
Without xposed, it's quite difficult to change individual app dpi

That seems to be the case. Thanks. I think I'll be waiting until xposed comes out for the G4 until I start using my circle case again.

I've found that if you use a digital clock for it just the white circle is off Center (accuweather one works fine)
The weirdest thing about this is that the call handling part of the quick circle (I.e. if you are on a call, the phone is ringing etc.) fits absolutely fine.
The circle highlight swish (technical term) doesn't line up either, but the call stuff does. Very odd
Has anyone figured out how to get the circle highlight light working the correct way?
I got the clock aligned correctly but i didnt find the app responsible for the light circle.
/edit
Got it
These are the apps which i changed to stock DPI via App Settings:
com.lge.lockscreensettings
com.lge.provider.lockscreensettings
com.lge.sui.widget
com.lge.smartcover
com.lge.clock
