Is anyone aware of a way to disable the knock-on feature of the G4? I was able to disable it in my G3 by using the service menu, but I have been unable to find the correct code to enter the G4 service menu.
I would also like to know as I feel disabling the feature might save the phone battery...
Anyone?
I am looking for this as well, i dont want it turning on in my pocket. On the lg g3 it was 3845#*850# for att. option was in the hidden service menu
Edit; I used the quick shortcut maker app (any cut force closes) and searched for knock. Checked it off. Worked.

Amazing. This works. I was more curious about disabling knockon increases battery life. I guess now i can test it and find out.

searched but couldn't find it so hopefully someone can help.....
i always have my phone right next to me but have my phone set up with a pattern unlock security for those moments that i leave it somewhere in a hurry and not worry about someone being able to get into my stuff but since 95% its right next to me i hate having to do the pattern unlock even though i can do the pattern fast i prefer not have too... so is there an app or shortcut so i can have my phone without a lock but for those quick moments that i need it locked i can activate it with just pressing that app instead of having to go into settings and manually setting it up again then remove it?
Not sure if there is an app specifically for that. Best I can think of is you might be able to set a condition using a app like tasker or impel. Basically, "if I press this button then enable this" I'm not sure how well or if this would even work but its worth a look I suppose.

I have been using no lock from the market.. It works great to flip your lock screen on or off. Works great on GB.. Flaky on ICS

I don't know of any particular app that does that but I just set my security settings to automatically lock with a delay. I generally leave it at about one or two minutes.

I am using NO LOCK right now on ICS and yea it's not perfect but I can keep the PIN CODE lockscreen and then use the app to disable it when I want.

Tried this and so far working great just what i was looking for. Hopefully someone can figure out a way for the phone to do it without having to install a third party app, but for now NO LOCK is working great. Thanks.

I did this but ill use it for a quick minute or less then it will shut off then at the time i turn the screen back on its locked and i have to unlock it and what i wanted was when suddenly i have to put my phone down and i want it to be locked with a push of a button without having to go into settings and setting it up . thanks either way as well.
Tasker will do anything you can possibly think of. Including this.

No Lock No Work But...
No Lock didn't work but a different app from the store call No Lock Screen works like a charm (for the exact problem you described).
hey @Ma$etas , do you found another app or way to solve your problem ?
Same as you, I need on demand lock screen, I lock when I want. I didn't want to unlock using pattern or pin every time I use my phone.
But, I need to lock it sometimes. If I left my phone on desk, when I'm sleeping and any other condition

I gave up on looking for one and just manually set it up .

Having to turn the screen on everytime one uses NFC is quite the pain.
wouldn't that be some form of risk to your phone?
Sure it would be a risk but one I might be willing to take due to convenience factor. Yes, it's simple enough to just turn on the power and unlock the phone but sometimes when driving, I don't have the ability to safely power on the screen and then go through the motions of unlocking. It's not for everyone for sure but I am sure that there is a niche market that would love to have it.

I would be even be happy with just the lockscreen mod.

Yeah that is true, although you don't have go through any motions if you don't want to, there's always the option to select "None" in the Lock Screen settings so you just press the power button and no Lock Screen shows up at all.
As far as allowing nfc goes I think what would be a better option is unlocking with voice, but so far I personally have yet to see that, that would be better and a nifty feature imo.

Right now I use tasker to do this while at home, though I would still like the option to use nfc when screen off.

Just curious. Anyone considered useing the actual task to unlock from the NFC chip? Would issue unlock then whatever else you wanted it to do. Could be something simple if NFC could activate with power button even though its locked.

You can't trigger off nfc while locked because the process isn't on.

Correct
But since going threw the trouble to have the service on all the time. Isnt also just as feasible to activate the process under the same rules as the screen? As an option to not activate it permanently. Im aware of the conditions and rules that govern it stock but I was merely speculating another alternative while the hood was open .
It's a goddamn full screen notification. How do I disable it?
I know the phone will recharge slower with my SlimArmor case, thank you.
Install G3 Tweakbox. It has the options in there.

I could swear I had this option enabled, and it wasn't working. Enabled, rebooted and it seems it disabled it. Thank you
This is the one issue that is stopping me from upgrading to Lollipop, as the only way I know how is with Xposed framework and G3 Tweakbox - have you found another way now you've gone to Lollipop?
Unfortunately no. I even stopped using the wireless charger.. It sucks really.
They said it could be done with the new apk tool, and it has been released some days ago. Didn't ask any dev to look after this for me, but it may be possible now

Hi,
I tried to disable the my tmobile app, but unlike other apps, this app does not give you the option to disable it.
Any ideas?
Thanks
didn't give me the option on the m9 either
I can't delete it either. It pisses on my OCD.

Yeah that is pissing me off BC it always shows up as using a lot of battery. I was able to disable it on my S6, not sure why they prevent that on the G4.
You can disable the notification though, maybe that might help with the battery since it doesn't have to refresh all the time?
Have to wait for root. Sucks cause it dtains the **** out of the battery.
turn off all the settings in the app itself if you have not done so already.
Has anyone figured out how to prevent the camera settings from going back to their default settings? This happens at least once a day or even more if I use the gps. I think it has something to do with the camera being attached to the location services with geo tagging. It happens if I leave it on or off. Just gets really annoying having to always change it back to save my pics to internal storage and the front facing camera to 8mp.

Try disabling the shortcut keys. It worked for me.

Volume up - Quickmemo

I was having this issue several times per day. It's been over a week since I disabled the shortcuts, and the problem is over for me.

Found it. I never even use those shortcut keys anyways. Hopefully the settings stay put. Thanks for the tip!

I just discovered something new. I was trying to save some battery using Snapdragon Batteryguru and the camera settings began resetting, again. So, if you are using a similar app, try disabling it.
I just got the phone (H812, Rogers, Canada) and I'm also having that issue, I'll disable the shortcut keys =( that's not nice though, I liked the quick launch. Hope they fix as I don't like having settings reset.
