Which ROM for G4 H815 Coming from Nexus 4? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am transitioning from a Nexus 4 to LG G4 H815 and am missing some features of the Nexus 4.
Most notably, I am missing the feature for setting notifications to priority "until next alarm." I am also missing the quick select feature for toggling between wifi and bluetooth devices without going into the settings. These were also available when the device was locked by pulling down the drawer from the top.
Is there a ROM that includes these features?
Thank you.

[Q] What's the easiest way to switch users?

I made an extra user account for my wife on the G pad so she can use it as well and have her own screens and settings etc.
On my old nexus 7 it was very easy to switch between users via the menu bar.
But I do not see any easy way to switch users on the G pad.
The only way seems to be to lock the device and then switch user via the lock screen.
Am I overlooking something here, are there other/better/easier ways to switch user?
Kick.

Two questions about LGG3

Hi, I am considering a Verizon or AT&T LGG3 when they become available.
I had two questions about the LGG3 functionality:
Does the LGG3 have the capability to select which on-screen navigation buttons appear at the bottom (Menu, Home, Back, Task Switcher), and the order of those buttons? The LGG2 had this feature.
With the Circle Cover on, what features are available through the circle if I always lock my phone (currently with a pattern lock)?
Thanks,
¿GJ?
check the user manual
Hi, The Sprint G3 Usre manual is available for download!
I guess you can get the answers from that manual, Just google "LG LS990 User manual". I should not post the link here.
From what I have seen in many reviews, youtube videos and so on...
1. It is exactly similar to G2. There are options for different layouts, though I don't think it allows users to change the order freely.
2. As seen on video reviews of quick circle case, apart from different clock widgets and weather data, there are plenty of options to show and/or use with it, you can answer or place a call, listen to music, health app, even camera and the gallery app. As you may guess, they are select stock LG apps that can be used in circle view. Believe 3rd party app support will come soon as LG has released the relevant SDK for developers already.

Hi, iLHaNroID - Do you know if all (or, any) of these would be available when the phone is password/pattern locked? I always have my phone protected by some method. If some of these features are disabled when the phone is locked, it would reduce the rationale for purchasing the circle case (for me).

I have preordered mine from my carrier (Three/Swe) and unfortunately it hasn't arrived yet (ETA w26/27) so unfortunately I can't answer this specific question. The quick circle case was one of the reasons underlying my decision. I hv waited to see what LG would bring onto the desk before jumping any of the htc, sony and samsung bandwagons. Other points that played role in that are qhd display, back buttons, customizable navigation buttons, clear and loud sound, wireless charging, removable battery etc (no need to count others imo). The only samsung made device attracting me is the Note series, but they are extremely big in hand and s-pen is not something I would want to use and take benefits in daily usage, it can be considerable with tablets though. So believe I won't regret my purchase, otherwise I can consider about trading it with Note 4 if I think it worths then.

H810 vs H815 Software

Hey All,
Posted this in Q&A as well, but I thought I might put it here too and expand on it. I originally bought the AT&T H810, but recently picked up the H815 EUR model because I really wanted the FM radio function and the ability to unlock the bootloader, etc. As I started using the H815, I noticed a couple of things that are a little different than the H810, mostly in the lockscreen area:
- On the H810, when you swipe down on the lockscreen, you get the quick settings menu. On the H815, swiping down shows you the current user, not quick settings
- On the H810, when Pattern Lock is selected, you're still able to select a screen swipe effect. On the H815, the only way to get the screen swipe effect option to appear is to select Swipe as the security method.
Any reason why these functions would be different between devices? I've tried playing around with the settings, but I can't seem to get the H815 to match what I was able to do on the H810. If anyone knows if it's possible to change these things, your help would be much appreciated!!
Also, does anyone know if there's a master list of things that are different between variants?
Hi,
Here on Argentina we have the 815 variant and when I swipe down on the lockscreen it gets me my quick settings bar.
Can not confirm the pattern lock, but I'm pretty sure that if you choose that you won't get any swipe effect.
Other thing I now think about: could it be that the variant makes one be able to splitter audio simultaneosuly on Bluetooth and wired headphone and the other does not? I'm sadly on the NOT variant, and that's a feature I 'd like to have...
Thanks for the reply! I'm wondering why mine only lets me see the user menu? Which software version are you running? I have V10D-EUR-XX
Here I attach a screenshot of my drop shade on the lock screen.
My software version says v10a-722-34.
I guess it's an old one as I heard on these forums about 10f.
I have issues with the knock on feature some times...

No need for two of the same thread.
Plus it is an XDA rule, as this would be considered spamming the forum

Long press on shortcuts of notification bar not opening more settings.

Any possibilities of long pressing on shortcuts of notification bar will open more settings ? For example if i keep pressing on WIFI shortcut it should open WIFI settings. I have not rooted my phone yet. Its running on 6.0.1. This is normally available in HTC & SAMSUNG phones.

For Wi-Fi and Bluetooth you can click on the title below the icon and it will expand to show networks and devices as well as a more settings button. At least that's what I remember of Android M. I also remember being able to long press the icons to enter the settings for the toggle. Maybe that's just for the other buttons like cellular data.

Thanks for reply. I agree those little links below WIFI and BT opens quick setting in same notification window. Then there is more setting link to open full setting options. But that is not available for location services and other shortcuts.
Also those shortcuts are hardly manageable. Only few shortcuts can be added or deleted which is also under beta. Customization option is not available. Hard to believe for 6.0 version of android.

It's "fixed" on Android N. So you have that to look forward to in October or whenever they fully release it. It's also probably available in a custom ROM if you want to go that route.

Hopefully they will fix in Android N. My Nexus 5X still under warranty. Is it worth rooting Nexus ?

Cannot switch from List View to Tabs - T-Mobile

Hey, guys. Quick question. How the heck do I change the settings from List View to Tab View? Those 3 dots are not at the top. This T-Mobile variant seems to be different from the others.
Hello.
I just bought the Korean version coming from a G5 and there's also no 3 dots in settings allowing to enable tab View
I was sad to see it but I guess it was too different for most people even if it was part of LG UX DNA. I feel they wanted to make the phone look like an iPhone.

I think I've pretty much gotten used to List View by now.
Same here, I was afraid to be lost but they group settings like in tabs view and some menus are equal to older LG UX versions.
