[R] LG G3 Lockscreen app - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm not on an LG G3, but I really envy its latest lockscreen (the 5.0 Lollipop one, I mean), since you can have notifications and lockscreen in the same screen , without having to swipe notifications and then unlock the screen (with code, glyph or whatever).
Is there a way to extract the LG G3 lockscreen and use it on a Samsung GSII?
Can anyone provide a link/dump?
Many thanks in advance

So that's really out of the question? No option to import LG framework as well, so to make it work?

you can't import it, you could port it but you would lose faetures and alot of time making it work. it is easier to download an simular app from google play instead

I think it is build in the lockscreen, but not sure
try the lgkeyguard.apk and Lg lockscreensetting.apk

i tried these 2 but it didn't do it.. thanks for the help
Very intersted in the lower resolution option to save battery. would you post back your findings if you can get the majority of the LG apps to work? namely the Quick Circle case app, and the messaging app that you have to use with it, to see your mesages.
Well for the resolution i put 1080x1920 with 480 dpi with Nomone
After that installed xposed with App Setting and change the dpi of the lg app (like phone, message, etc.) to 530, which is the minimum for the lg app.
Also, you should change the launcher for the Nova launcher
For the quick circle im still trying to figure out wich service/app it is running
The game poppy pop is working great even with the lower resolution.

You ever find out the answer to this question? Or anyone else know?

Yeah sort of, but it's a bit disapointing. I found out that the quickcircle is actually implemented in the launcher or something like that like suljo said, making it very hard to get to change its resolution. I eventually got a new phone and stop looking into that.

[Q] AOSP Lockscreen?

Is there an .apk out there to give the G3 a more AOSP style lockscreen?
I will use knock code while traveling or while @ client sites, but during my personal time am really missing the simple lock key slide.
You can actually see one on the stock G3 lockscreen when you long press the lockscreen widget. So far Tweaksbox, Gravity, etc. modules do not really provide the same lockscreen mechanism (at least my experience has been this).
I have also seen several play store options but none of them seem to really emulate the simple experience of the lock key slide.

Last I knew a true AOSP Lockscreen was going to be hard to do. See this on Reddit
http://www.reddit.com/r/lgg2/comments/23h88t/aosp_lockscreen_on_442/
It's regarding the same issue on a G2 running 4.4.2 which I'd imagine would be the same case with our G3s.
I'm with you though I'd like to have that Lockscreen back but not sure we'll get it on stock.

[Q] Remove Camera from LockScreen

Hi
Just got my G3 after updating from a Nexus 4.
Impressed so far and happily rooted the beast.
It's the lockscreen I am trying to get sorted. IS there any way of removing the swipe to camera option off the lockscreen? Had a bad experience previously and would just like the knock code. (Ideally would also like the emergency call option gone too)
Have searched but couldn't see anything.
Thanks guys

As far as lockscreen shortcuts - Go to Settings/General/Security/Lock Screen/Shortcuts - now tap the one you want to get rid of, then select Delete Shortcut
As far as the emergency call option - after some quick Googling some users are reporting and option to remove it with Gravitybox or G3 Tweakbox through XPosed, but others report it doesn't work

Thanks for the reply.
No shortcuts option come up for me in the lock screen tab. I am fully updated to the latest OS LRX21R and V20h
Never been a fan of Xposed for some reason. May try it and give it a go on the LG
Superb phone though. Pleased with it

Larger Contact Picture for Phone Calls?

Did a search and apparently this was an issue on LG G3 as well:
After updating to lollipop and the new LG UI - I hate how the contact picture is now a small circle when you place or receive calls. Anyone know of a way to get it back to the bigger contact picture like it was on the older LG UI?
For the G3, it looked to be a feature within G3 Tweaksbox, but I don't believe that has been updated for Xposed Lollipop (or whether it will work for G2).
Thanks in advance!

Just updated this morning to it. That was the first thing I noticed. There is many things I'm not liking about the update too. Color themes ugly, icons not Contact adjustable much, The Weather Animation is gone as well. Overall looking it seems to be a step back in the users basic functions.
EDIT: Hold the new Round Contact icon down. So you can Edit it. Then click the + add new. You can re-size it and make it square again with any image you like.

LG Keyboard Persistent Notification

Anyone else getting a persistent LG keyboard selection notification? I'm on VZW FWIW.

I forget why but this happens with any keyboard as long as its up and ready to type. I use swiftkey and this notification is always there. Really annoying since we can't get rid of it.
The icon comes up as long as you have a secondary keyboard installed. If you want the icon gone, simply remove the other keyboards.

Ya I had to disable google voice typing as it registers as a secondary keyboard.
reason this is happening...kinda gets on my nerves. In 4.4.4 and lower if you had more than 1 keyboard you would see the same constant notification. In 5.0+ if you have a second keyboard enabled you should actually see no notification and the little keyboard would go in the lower righthand corner next to the recents key. Reason why LG said **** you to this awesome feature is because they have customizable Key.... I use them but i would rather not and have they keyboard changer down there again.
I have swiftkey installed but can't uncheck the stock LG keyboard???
just thought i'd throw this up here. if you are annoyed of the LG keyboard, you can disable it using the debloater tool. disable the following apps:
com.lge.ime
com.lge.ime.dictionary.xt9
com.lge.ime.theme.black

Does debloater tool work on an unrooted phone?
