Hello guys, this is my first contribution to the community, I started getting involved with the website since I wanted to root my Optimus G.
First of all, I want to give credit to the following posts:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2194423 For creating the flashing zip and the installer script, otherwise it would be more difficult for us to install it. Elegant.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453869 For creating a great tutorial that I followed and had zero problems while tweaking the UI files.
I made all the elements from the HorizontalScrollView visibility to "gone" and the height set to 0dip.
Because it's the only ROM that I have tried this with, I will only say it's compatible with that one until otherwise proven and test
Only compatible with Canadian version from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2127346
Please, before doing this backup /system/app/LGSystemUI.apk or make a nandroid backup.
To apply it just reboot into recovery mode and flash it, I have provided a version to hide them and another to show them back.
I'm not responsible for any damage.
do you have to be rooted to flash this?
also... the e971 (rogers) stock jelly bean doesnt have the qslide apps .. will flashing the 'show' file display them?/put them on the phone?
Have anyone tried it with E97510a ?
After applying how do I take screenshots? Is screenshot goes directly to my gallery or still opens in LG editing app?
Well.. Works fine on E975–10b EUR.
I really dont know why, but my phone has an extreme long name, longer than that above

@tdiddy1987 I would say it wouldnt work with the ones that doesn't have. If u have the chance to try it... do it. But my guess is that it won't, the modification just makes something that is there invisible, so if its not there natively it wont be able to show it.
@LOCKDOC_UA it will still open in the LG app, QSlides apps will work perfectly, it just wont show the icons in there. You can take the screenshot (LG memo) holding vol up+vol up and it will open it in the LG app Or you can use the Jelly bean native feature, power+vol down. which will save it to the gallery.

Sorry for offtopic. How about to remove google search bar from main screen?
Thanks!
Thank you.:good:

when we are talking jelly bean are we talking 4.1.2? New to Optimus G, and am trying to find a stock update rom to stick on it (my wife's)...i hate the Q slide. LG really screwed up making this non-removable.
Cheers mate, worked great on me E975.

Happier to use stock rom now that Qslide is gone

I dont really hate the Q-slide apps although I have no use for it. But it's nice to see it gone and have more space for the notifications!
I think LG did great on their notification bar. I went from rooted custom rom back to root stock rom just for the ease of use of the notification bar!
Is it possible to remove qslide apps from notificatio without unlocking bootloader.
Im rooted but i dont want to unlock bl.
Thanks

Hi can anyone port the stock messaging app from the LG G2 to our devices? TIA

:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
I tried, due to the theme differences and it uses info from the SystemUi, it fails, I cannot figure out why. I do have the LGMusic.apk from the G2 working now.
...on top of a mountain...and you're not invited!
I'd also love to see this since LG's messaging app is my favorite at current. I heard that it had Qslide support??? There are also a few other G2 apps that work on the G pro as well. I was able to get the file browser with qslide support working, along with the gallery and keyboard from G2. If anything though, definitely would like to see an updated messager.
Yeah, I got the multiphoto working too. I am having to use root explorer to install the .apk's, they will not flash.

Can you please share All working Apk's & Method into app Section or here.
Thanks in Advance.
Can I instead get the UniMessagebin.apk of the US G Pro? The E988 version turns SMS to MMS automatically when I include emojis in the message. TY
I guess I'll just wait for the 4.2 update.

If by the US version, you mean E980, then it wouldn't help you. It also does the conversion.

Req
hello !
can someone post the stock videoplayer.apk and libs OptmusG?
also like the Smartshare.apk and also the libs and frameworks.
thx !!!
EDIT: Google Now Launcher is official on Google Play! Unfortunately, you need GPE Moto G to get it. Otherwise you can simply download the .APK, it will still work on standard Moto G. According to XDA you need 4.4.2 to actually get it to work though, but maybe it does work on 4.3? I'm not sure. Here it is!

Hi everybody! This is the Google Experience Launcher from nexus devices and i found an APK that works with our Moto G.
I posted this because i read around the 4.4 ota threads and some people didn't like the regular stock launcher and they wanted the google experience launcher instead.
Well, here it is! :good:
Works on KitKat AND Jellybean! Though i'd use it on KitKat so the experience feels better :good:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...once-you-get-your-kitkat-update-apk-download/
Here is the link! All you need to do is to download it and then just install the APK! Works perfectly on the Moto G.
Also saying "Ok Google" works perfectly.
All credit goes to android police for the APK and Google for the launcher. :good:
An addendum to your post: It will also work on Android 4.3. I used it on my HTC One with CM 10.2 and CM 11 and my Moto G with stock 4.3 and 4.4 and it works perfectly on both versions.

Done
Thanks for uploading this! Interestingly, and sadly, I noticed the dialer doesn't include the KitKat "busines search" feature. This is something I would have used a lot, so I'm sad to see it not included. It's evidently a problem on the MotoX as well, so Motorola must be leaving the feature out of its KitKat builds for whatever reason.
GEL is great, I like how I get to choose how many home screens & choosing widgets/wallpaper the old school way. One thing I do miss is having the perm shortcut to the Google play store visible in the appdrawer

One thing however, how do you switch back to the original launcher if you want to. Short of uninstalling GEL

You have to go into settings>applications then find one of your home screen replacements, scroll down and "clear defaults"

If anyone is interested, the touchless control "hotword" feature does work. I can say "ok google" on home and speak a command. Under Google Settings > Voice, Language must be set as English (US) - English (UK) does not work. The 'Hotword detection' option should be available there.
I habe the problem that the icons are not really sharp when I use the Google experience launcher.
Has anyone the same problem or a solution?

From my understanding that's because it was made for nexus 5 with a bigger screen and better pixel density. Since our screens are smaller, it makes the icons larger and not as sharp.

Anyway to keep the GEL and get the icons smaller and sharper? Kinda ruins it for me .. Although the main reason I wanted this was for the improved dialer.

Confirmed working on Moto G running GEL. As mentioned in the video, only certain themes are compatible. Stark works fine and free theme Black.
There is an article on Forbes.com suggesting GEL will be officially available for all devices at some point in the future:
While the hack to apply GEL to your device is simple, the fact Google keeps updating it to work increasingly smoothly on an ever wider variety of devices indicates it will soon become an official option for all Android handset owners.
Should this happen it will be a key moment for the future of Android. It gives users who want the stock Android experience the option to have it without being forced to buy a Nexus or ‘Google Play Edition’ device yet it should not alienate manufacturers who can still sell their devices with their own skins as differentiators. In fact GEL may even see manufacturers up their game as many third party skins for Android are poorly coded and slow down the user experience. With an option to dump them for a stock Android experience at any moment this tardiness is unlikely to continue for long.

I used the Xposed module App Settings to change the dpi. Tip, change "Google Search" not "Launcher."

A dpi of "303" seems a good setting. Icons are reduced and app drawer is 6x4.

you have to flash them in zip format through cwm or twrp. do a search on the forums zip files are posted several places for atleast the qremote the others you might have to either make yourself or find someone with stock that will make them for you
Qremote works and there's a download link for it in Madmack's CM thread. No qslide, though.

someone has tried to use stock lollipop dialer, do you think i have to enable root to use it?
someone knows if the apk is the only thing needed?
I'd like to know that too. As I've played with G4 for a bit and really think that stock Google lollipop dialer and contacts apps are really beautiful. So wanted to check if there's any way of replacing the dialer when I get my G4. Thank you

[QUOTE. Has nice material design and a few other features.[/QUOTE]
Thank you for suggestion, however I tried it already and its very very far from Google dialer or contacts design. I'd love if there was G4 Google edition with G4 camera app but I guess one just can't have all the best. Thank you

yep am using this for now, i bought the pro version too
it's a pity i have a small picture instead the fullscreen one in lollipop, but i can live with it
but would be good to find a way to use all the lollipop stock dialer+contacts
i wanted to root it to try, but seems on other phones didn't work (probably some libraries missing)
I really hope that one day Google will push dialer and contact apps to play store. They've done amazing job on these on lollipop
