Google Dialer? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So it seems like Google's Nexus dialer can work on most phones with a bit of tweaking, and I was wondering if anyone got it working on the G4 yet? I had it installed perfectly on my M9, and my Droid Turbo came with it standard, but the S6 has been a lost cause so far. Hopefully this is something that can be done relatively easy.

I would LOVE to have it on the G4. It's so much nicer to look at than LG's Dialer. The tiny circular contact photos with LG really irk me more than I thought.

Thanks, but <4 star rated apps make me nervous

I use this on my G4 H815:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/google-dialer-lg-g3-t3158346
works OK.

I tried doing this on my VS986 using FlashFire to install the zip but can't find the new activity in the list.
(when I had a G3 [my previous phone] I did this mod and loved it.)
How did you do your flash/install and do you have any tips/advice?
Thanks.

Works for me but I want 1440p and I don't want to have to do 10 steps to get it.

Yeah, what's with that? 720p on a 1440 screen. Does the Nexus 6 get 1440? How about the G3? Is Google hatin' on the N4?

I guess YouTube doesn't like the Note 4. A few threads on it in the general and Q&A section. Think like 10 steps to get it to work. LoL. Guess we need to ***** to them.
What's with no 1440
I figured out the force close. It was the old version of youtube xposed module.

Went through some debugging and to be more precise, the Xposed conflicting module is:
YourTube
YouTube AdAway seem work just fine and so does YouTubeAllowFullScreen HDMI.
Eventually the developer of Yourtube will update soon.
Most of Lollipops changes and design is a good refresh from what KitKat offered. Most of you may dislike it at first but personally, I'm finally glad to see changes from the old 4.0.

I personally like changes too, but it's personal. Just like women, cars and pretty much everything else
too bad they remove the microphone icon on the search box
Awesome! Just herd of the update, and I dirty installed this without a problem. On my nexus 6, couldn't wait for the official update
Hi guys! If you have problem installing the YouTube material, you will just need to update your Google play services before you update to YouTube material design.. I just discover this by myself.. Maybe in my so many expirences force closing my YouTube.. Sorry for my bad English ?

LG G4 Stock apps for G3

I thought that we could install the new updated LG launcher, music app etc, if anyone will have it, once it's released.
So if you got any of the new apk's post it here in the future!

Jesus Christ, does LG employ only first graders in the UI design group? These are even more gaudy than the G3 versions. No subtlety or refinement whatsoever.

Cant agree more. The LG UI and notification sounds suck! Why the hell they make "Life is good" as default ringtone & alarm?? All clock alarm, sms and calling sounds just so annoying.

Thanks for the link, but the link on setting permissions is incomprehensible. I'm certain the person who made the 27 second instruction video knows what he's doing, but most of us can't follow. Please help us who are not quite as brilliant.

[Q] Will someone port the new UX 5.0 from G5 to G4?

Hi, this is my first Lg phone and I was wondering if someone will port the new UI to G4 (since there isn't so much interest for this phone, comparing to HTC M8 and nexus devices I had). I mean a Cloudy-G4 or something similar.
I really hope so, because it seems to be amazing
I think it would be actually better if G5 got an LG G4 UX 4.0 port

I believe that you can bring the old launcher to the new-ui-rom.
In case of that is not possible, you can still use nova or whatever, don't you? =)

Absolutely. I haven't used a stock launcher in years. Lol
The new UI looks like MIUI or some chinese crap that copy IOS.lol.Very bad LG...very bad move.
I'm quite interested to know if UX 5.0 will be made available for the G4. Was 4.0 made available for the G3?
If the APK is released for 5.0, will someone at XDA port it to the G4? If so, will I be able to install it on a G4 that has a locked bootloader? I don't have the ability to flash ROMs with the H815P version.
@Noker7, have you found out any more information about this since you posted this thread?

Nope. Only a "port" of G5 camera apk, which I won't test
Let's wait for a good guy who ports the new UI to our G4

What model G4 do you have? With the H815P, I won't be able to get the UI if it comes via a ROM, so I'll need to wait for an update, or a new version of Android.
I really like the G4 UI, againt the G5... much more option, I like the APP drawer. it Would be nice if the notification bar change on G4, like the Color and icons. I dont like the grey style.

There is going to be an option to enable the app drawer in the launcher settings. 3rd party launchers are always an option, as well. In my mind, the stock launcher means almost nothing anymore...
Any news on that? I'd love to see UX 5.0 on my G4, but wouldn't like to wait a few months until LG gives it to us..

Yes, the Genisys team ported it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/themes-apps/theme-genisys-ux-5-0-theme-v1-0-t3359019
use genysis rom it's pretty good and has new ui
Yeah, I saw it. But is it really fully ported or just stock G4 rom made to look like UX 5 (changed colors, icons, etc.)?

No G5 rom porting until now.
It has G4 UI and few G5 apps.
You can flash "gensys theme" over 20e to get some of 5.0UX. We have to wait for a complete porting.

The G3 have a fully port of UX 5.0

What are your settings / changes for stock 6.0

I just purchased the LG G4 H812 (in Canada) and I love it! I found that there was a few things that I changed right away and would love to hear what you have done to make this phone even better!
Here are a few things I have done so far;
Disabled a bunch of unneeded apps
Disabled Dual Window
Disabled QuickCircle case
Disabled sound on keypress
Turn Off Mobile Data (unless no wifi - while driving etc)
Installed Launcher <3
Turned off Smart Bulletin
Turned off NFC
Use Smart Unlock (Face and On-Body)
Increased vibration strength
Enabled Voice Clarity when not using voip
Installed V10 Camera Mod apk
Installed SystemUI Tuner (ADB permissions)
Disabled "ok Google" detection from any screen
I have been getting great battery life on this phone too! This is lots of web browsing, youtube, using the camera, small amount of gaming and lots of reading on the XDA app
Cheers!
This is what I did
Changed roms

Yeah I wouldn't bother
I'm in Canada as well but I bought T-Mobile USA phone
Ya I had a Moto g3 and had tonnes of roms to play with but I broke it and needed a new phone. I bought this one for 260$can unlocked because I couldn't find a decent phone for even close to this price.

Ya I think about it now and even 260 taxes included I should have just got another moto g3 but I was bored with the roms and wanted a bigger screen and better camera. I am not disappointed but probably will be bored with this phone soon and hard brick it trying to get a custom Rom.

The only thing holding most people back is the camera app.

And depending on model it's very risky to brick the device!
Added SystemUI Tuner to get immersive mode. Had to do some ADB commands to break my device's virginity. ?
Disabled the "ok Google" detection from any screen. I think this helped with scrolling jittery lagging in some apps.
Using the built in cleaning app has helped too. I run it about once a week or after installing/removing a bunch of apps.
Now I don't swipe away my frequently used apps from the recent apps button/screen and that really speeds up launching the apps I use often.

What phone do you have? I got the LG Wing today.
I'm looking fot he LG game pad app, but i can't find it. I installed LG game laucher, but i don't have the LG game padd icon like on the V60 (see scree).
I know that the app is for dualscreen cases, but maybe it also works for the LG Wing.

Nevermind, i see that it's already preinstalled. But it doesn't work on the LG wing. I hope they will add support in the next update. Would be great to have a game pad on the second screen.

A bit off topic, & will start a new thread myself, if needed, should I get the phone :
Have you used an alternative launcher app (Nova/etc....)?
If so, is the 2nd screen activity/app pairings the same as when using LG's launcher, or, is some functionality lost?
EDIT/UPDATE (11/07/2020) :
After watching TK Bay's YouTube review of the LG WING, using anything other than the stock launcher will strip away some of the features/functionality of the phone in dual-display mode.
To what extent, he didn't elaborate, I'll find out more when I pick up the phone from T-Mobile later today.
