What are /r/LGG8X's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Pro tip: You can try dual launch for LG to create a combination that opens one app on one screen and another on the other. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.graymatterapps.duallaunchforlg

Install The black screen app from play store and use it on main screen. Since its an oled screen, it has the same effect as turning off that screen. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.binarybox.blackscreen

actually you could also do it in Android10 using app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner which can be done after some adb configuration.

Plug in an TRRS 3.5mm extender into the headphone jack, that will trigger the high impedance mode and then plug your headphones into the extender.

Something like these: (you only need 1)

https://www.amazon.com/FosPower-Headphone-Ultra-Slim-4-Conductor-Headphones/dp/B016E5PEXC

it's because may be you have malware. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.malwarebytes.antimalware

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.protectstar.spywaredetector

scan your phone with any of this software... always use incognito if you use less secure web page.

I run cpu throttling test : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=skynet.cputhrottlingtest

when battery is below 30%. And then the phone just shuts down itself after running it about 2 - 3 minutes.

I today even tried doing antutu benchmark with 3d gpu added software and after running the whole test successfully, I restarted it and it just shuts off after powering on to lock screen.

This app I've tried shows it as 180Hz. It apparently measures it in realtime when we touch the display.

Not sure how accurate it is.

And I've tried with increased touch sensitivity on and off. Same results. 180Hz.

Here's the link for the app

Your phone has the native Android file explorer, LG just didn't create a shortcut or "app" for it. Download this and it will launch the internal file explorer app that is used on Androids everywhere. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.marc.files

For added features I like MiXplorer

I bought this one for my G8X, it fits, and is not bad for emulators, but the thumbsticks are definitely not Xbox quality.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.graymatterapps.duallaunchforlg

Create a shortcut to open the same app on the left and right. Example: Waze (left) and Waze (right) will open Waze only on the left because 2 instances of the same app can't be running at the same time.

The only thing is that it doesn't have any indicator like the built-in app (green grains) for the manual focus. I still recomend it though if you are interested in it. It has bracketing mode too. If you are interested check it out.

They have a free evaluator too. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riseupgames.proshotevaluator

You can find and create a shortcut to the hidden stock Files file manager using this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alextern.shortcuthelper

Ouch! :( Maybe give SwiftKey https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey&hl=en_US (I use it) or some other keyboard a try just to see if it does the same.

WideMode for LG

​

Turn on game and toggle WideView option on Nottification Bar (there should be new icon, you might have to add it to you notification shortcuts).

​

I only used it with few rythm games, but was kinda okey (if you dont mind big bar in the middle).

Those screen protectors are plastic, basically useless. They will only help against minor scratches which you wouldn't be able to see with the naked eye anyway, unless it was at a certain angle. The glass protectors are fine for both screens, I use these on my dual screen, they actually cover edge to edge. I've had no problems with them at all. If you don't like them on the dual screen case, just use it on the main display for peace of mind.

https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B07ZXGJGDH/ref=ppx\_yo\_dt\_b\_search\_asin\_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

yeah, i used a this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G44M4S3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 but it goes 4k30 on a 4k tv, not good for gaming.

if i connect it to a 1440p or lower tv/monitor with 60hz or more, it be in 1440p60 for desktop mode and mirror mode.

Use Button Mapper. If you buy the Pro version it even lets you remap the assistant button. Need to setup with an ADB command for screen off actions access but its a one time setup even though it says you would need to do it after every reboot.

> For now, using second screen to type , as even keyboard is messy

The Dual Screen can of course be a great method to work around it, especially if you have a mouse or one of those small, portable Bluetooth Keyboard+Trackpad gadgets that are popular among users of (Android/Windows) TV boxes. E.g.:

• https://www.amazon.in/Wireless-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Rechargeable-Microsoft/dp/B099S1N63R/

If you get something like that, make sure that it's listed being Bluetooth and Android compatible. There are also 2.4GHz variants, but they require an USB-C OTG cable to attach the little dongle to the G8X.

There were gaps and glue sticking out. Looked very unprofessional work. There is also one app on the play store to check seal on your phone.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ray.waterresistancetester

Hello, I'm selling my dual screen covers. I have two of them, one sealed and the other one used.

Sealed : $100 USED : $80

Can either do zelle and ship it or ship it through Facebook marketplace if you want buyer protection

While looking for a smartwatch audio solution for my Wear OS smartwatch, i came across the app “WearMouse”. It uses your Wear OS smartwatch as a bluetooth air mouse/ trackpad. The app works with the G8X. It also happens to work in desktop mode and i was able to move my windowed apps around with the air mouse feature pretty well. Trackpad also works but takes a little more work to move the windows around. It at least makes a half way decent alternative to not having the trackpad feature added to the G8X in Android 11 (Thanks for that, LG!)..  and not that it is all that useful, but it also turns the entire phone into a mini laptop of sorts. I have been able to get my mouse cursor to show up on the dual screen now and then (still trying to figure out how that happens, if you have a proven method, please let me know).. so i took a picture of my phone setup. Here is the Google Play download link in case anyone is interested in trying this app out… (you have to download directly to the smartwatch, not the phone) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ginkage.wearmouse

Thanks for elaborating!

> Android version: 11 Submodel: LMG850EMW (India)

OK, good, so you do have the latest Screen+ version of Desktop mode.

> Resolution of HP: 1366*768

Interesting. Never tried with such a low resolution. In my experience with several odd aspect ratios and orientations, Desktop Mode and Screen+ seem to work most predictable on a FullHD 1920x1080 screen in landscape orientation. Same for Screen Sharing mode, btw.

Looks like it can work well. At least you also have the HDMI option, e.g. for connecting to a FullHD (1080P) TV to see if that improves things.

I like that the adapter you picked has USB-C input, for keeping the phone charged during long sessions. You could experiment with several chargers to check which one offers the most balanced power. In some cases you may want the to fast charge (Power Delivery or Qualcomm QuickCharge), but for long sessions it could be beneficial for the battery to raise the charging level only lightly.

Using these two.

I have been using Amkette Power Pro for an year and It shows fast wireless charging and charges at 9 watts. Here's the link : https://www.amazon.in/dp/B07RX7DVYY/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_SHXWN7AR64DG09R3N3DZ

They also have a cheaper one for 1k which is 10W so It should also support G8x for fast charging.

There is a process that will be given by your company if they allow it. Another use of work profile is if you want to keep some apps separate from your other personal stuff. You can use the island app to do it.

I run cpu throttling test : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=skynet.cputhrottlingtest

when battery is below 30%. And then the phone just shuts down itself after running it about 2 - 3 minutes.

I today even tried doing antutu benchmark with 3d gpu added software and after running the whole test successfully, I restarted it and it just shuts off after powering on to lock screen.

This one. It shows a green color:

• https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vivid.pastel

I don't use Sidelight often but when I have, I've only seen the default blue color. Apparently it will show that yellow/orange color when there's a notification from the default messages app (whichever is selected) but I personally haven't seen it.

Its important to note that I'm pretty sure there is only a handful of themes which actually change the color (such as mine). As far as I'm aware, Sidelight has always been limited to one (or in limited circumstances, two) colors.

There actually is this app on the Play Store, called Pixel Font or something like that. I think you gotta pay for it, but I use it and it works just fine.

I use Cube ACR : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.catalinagroup.callrecorder

Works fine got me. I record only audio. I'm not sure whether you can record video. BTW, if you are using wired or Bluetooth headsets, the caller's voice may not be recorded at times. But there are different options to try out with and I've of them should work for you.

hey this app is perfect piano on playstore

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gamestar.perfectpiano&hl=en_IN&gl=US

> Any way to access volume controls without touching volume keys?

Some ideas

• A. Swipe down from the top: volume control is right under the screen brightness control
• B. More steps: Settings | Sound | Volume
• C. In certain media apps, you can swipe over the screen to control volume (and sometimes also brightness) e.g. VLC and BSplayer
• D. If you want to use hardware buttons, but not on the G8X directly, you can use an external bluetooth keyboard with volume control. E.g. with the Rii i4 mini keyboard you can do this (just tested to make sure) - there may also be dedicated keyboard devices with fewer keys that work in the same way.

I personally use the FCS Anti Shock as the protection of the dual screen case and a Glass Screen Protector for the main device. The dual screen case doesn't close properly if you install any protector (doesn't even matter how the the protector is..at last the dual screen case will not close properly)...I am okay with that as I don't use the dual screen often. I will attach the link for both go for it if you want that

I use the Zedge app. I'm on the free trial right now so I'm not sure what limitations there will be when it's over.

But there is tons of variety on it, and when you click to download the sound/song, it asks if you want to set as ringtone, notification, or as alarm.

I'm not sure what you want to use as your alarm sound, but it's possible Zedge has it. If not, there is tons to chose from. Worst case, if you don't find anything, delete the app lol

For me when i first plugged in the headphones it gave me a pop up asking if id like to turn it on by itself. Looking now I dont see the option for it.

And as for the adapter, I'm using something similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I3A47KM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_uFuaGb158CWBX?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

From what I read, qc 3.0 and qc 4.0 chargers will pretty much charge the g8x at the same speed.

For $12 I purchased two qc 3.0 chargers that included cables... They charge the phone really quickly.

I wish i had seen this post 24 hours ago.. i literally just threw the Sprint sim cards in the trash yesterday afternoon after sitting here for weeks...

But verify on the Boost website that this is the correct card.. i know for certain people have asked about the G8X on the Boost forums and it was answered. I know for sure the sim cards were Sprint branded.. i ordered a set that had 4 different sim cards in it and only 1 of them was the correct sim.

For the best DAC in a phone, I am using the OneOdio which are technically the first copies of OneAudio brand of headphones, (Dj headphones), I'm loving it, I can hear properly between the lows, mids and highs, not overpowering bass but I noticed I could hear tones which I never did when listening through other headphones, just so you know, these are 50mm drivers, that produce excellent sound quality. I'm enjoying it so far, they aren't heavy too, very comfortable, I'll provide the link if you wish to purchase them. These are the ones I got. There are other models also. Check them before purchasing. If quality is your priority over extra bass then only go for this, if you want more bass and loss of treble then go for others like boat etc.

It has one of those ball joints in the rear of it so you could potentially modify with an alternate mount from another mount.

Also use this and set as default browser https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.browserhelper

So when pick it as default browser it will launch in secondary screen

I have outlook and can do the same thing with mine. What I did was I went to the play store and downloaded an app called widemode for lg (link to app posted at bottom) it basically forces any app to open on both screens. When you do this you can screenshot like normal in most cases and capture what's displayed on both screens. Hope this helps

Google play store link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode

I'm too tired to understand what you're asking, but the keyboard is made by Google themselves, and it's called Gboard

The developer of Tasker made an app called AutoNotification that will hide the notification for free. I'm not sure who posted this before but here's a link to the app Here.

Hey, I just got this one in the mail today. My initial plan was just to cut my losses and mount it while folded over and use the one screen, but since this phone is such a thicc boye you an actually unfold the phone no problem in this mount and if holds the phone perfectly.

I'm in Canada, so the like above leads to Amazon Canada. You can find the same mount on American Amazon here though.

This is probably your best option at budget but I'd recommend this one which includes an adaptor if you haven't purchased one yet.

The spigen one is also on sale but I don't like the 'holder' look of it.

My usage is similar to what you mentioned except i play Hill side rush for 1 hour and no dual display. Im getting atleast 6hrs sot. Once try using the phone without dual screen.

You can add a quick settings tile that should allow you to wide-mode any app, not sure if the wide mode you're talking about has any special features or something. This one just makes your 2 screens act like 1. Hope this helps

A application like parallel space can clone apps to use on one phone, therefore utilizing both screens for the same app but different accounts on each. Not sure how it works with pokemon go, but it can't hurt to try.

Is this the app you are talking about https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode&hl=en ?

If so, I see it, I can install it, but it does nothing. There is no button in the quick settings (I assume that is what you mean by "taskbar tray"), and it doesn't appear when I edit those buttons.

Or is there another app I am not aware of?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riseupgames.proshot2

This is the one i am using (primarily cause of the intervalometer) but it allows you to choose each setting individually (be it manual or auto, whatever one wishes). It is not for free, so careful on that download button. He has a camera system evaluator for free so if you're interested, make sure you check that first.

I think it's the app Navigation Gestures by XDA. In the paid version, it allows you to customise shortcut when you swipe on it

Which 3 smartphone you having now with their respective Android (8/9/10) running on it. Maybe I could test on my other spare Android devices or iPhone.

I got S7edge and Note 9, no luck running on it. It just force shutdown when open the app. Now I no longer able to take 360 photo remotely/wirelessly.

Which version you running? Mind share the APK? I'm using the latest one from Google Play. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lge.sc

If you need Chrome integrations try to use Bromite (also available on F-Droid), a Chromium fork, open-source and privacy oriented alternative. See if there's that bug there or use something different meanwhile, as Firefox Beta a great browser for one-handed operations.

Button Mapper has such an option if bought (not available in the free version). It also lets you remap the annoying Google Assistant key (a several clicks through their PC tool are required, tho).

The difference between the default and brighter light is noticeable if swapping between them, however, do not expect it to flash so strong so you could use it for searching British bombers in the night sky. Solely for the little extra brighter light, I don't think it's worth it.

I've been using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.omegacentauri.ScreenDim.Full for years because I have the same issue. There's also Comfort View built into the phone to reduce blue light.

You're not talking about this File manager you said?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.nbu.files

which is the only one I could find and I don't recall installing it.

How do you even launch the native File manager you're looking for? I like Total Commander, but still would like to know.

I would install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2 , go outside away from trees and buildings somewhere open with WiFi, cell radio, and location on, and see what this app shows. Does it start picking up GPS satellites and eventually show a location?

It may take the phone/GPS status a few minutes to lock on to GPS satellites.

GPS on my unlocked phone works fine BTW.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.browserhelper This app will let you open links on the other screen while keeping reddit open.

Most of the time I just use the second screen for multitasking.

You can even have 2 accounts going at the same time! I use an app called island to essentially duplicate PoGo, and run it under another profile.
Island on google play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.island&hl=en_US

mmh no, it is not available but take a look on that: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.light.volumecontrolnotificationbar

Today the full version is free.

Ok. Got it - She had used some tool that tweaked her notification panel, and it was messing with things it seems. So not only was this button not working, many others were not even shown in the options/edit menu as well.

The good news she got it working for most things.

The Bad news - is Candy Crush Crashes. :(

Debugging some more - the program she was using was called 'Materials Notification Shade' to customize her Notification drag down look. And apparently it basically overlays its own window over the existing pull down shade. Which breaks The wide mode button.

Plus the thing has the most annoying adverts.. Seriously.. a LOUD gun fight video that she could not skip... 20+ Secs long.. that woke up the baby.

I dont even have one called 'Dual Screen' - Just the one called 'wide mode' (edit: found out why)

So i ....

Open Hangouts..

drag down to see the quick buttons (where wifi, flashlight, and so forth are) , click the 'wide mode' button i moved to the front of the list.. It makes a click noise.. and nothing.

It COULD be she has some odd settings turn on or not. She likes to mess with things.

I can get the browser in wide mode, but only through the right/left side dual screen action button.

Edge action. I think I paid for some of the features. If that app helps me, the dev deserve to have credit where credit is due.

Ciao and thanks to be here :)

Are you sure? Which version of the mobile you have? Where it did come from? Yes if lost you have to order as I didn't check if with the case you can wireless charge.

mmh sorry I never used the default one... can I suggest you Musicolet? It is the best!

I never used it. I guess I never will.

Thanks for the update, though.

Edit: After some reading, I remember trying it for a day when I had a G6. It wasn't very fast I didn't use it after that. I now use send anywhere app and it works pretty well with over 10MB/second transfer rate.

First install 'Wide Mode'

LINK: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode&pageId=none

Installation instructions: * Install the app. * Enable your secondary screen. * Go into any app. * Swipe down from the top of your screen to get the quick access drop down menu. * Swipe down again to get more icons (or use the pencil icon) to find 'Wide View' icon. Press, hold and drag it to the top of icons.

Then go into you Kindle app and activate 'Wide View' via the down swipe menu. Rotate your screens and voilà!

Is this what you needed?

I found the tool I used in the past: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.intangibleobject.securesettings.plugin&hl=en_AU

Hello and Welcome aboard!

Sending where/to? If you simply have to share, you can use the app Xiaomi MiDrop, I love it :)

Hello,

just another app must-have to manage directly the screen(s)rotation... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.crape.rotationcontrol&hl=en_AU

​

Very useful as including a titles panel for the quick access.

One of my favorite... frequently in the giveaway and/or free for promotion (but now not!) is LG Hi-Fi Status.

​

This application is working with all our LG powered by DAC and can show / monitor many information for the audio-lovers. My suggest is (if you won't pay now to get it) just to look at that apps for price drop where usually is reported (I will the same as soon popped out!).

Cheers,

Yes, follow the link suggested by u/yaccob_ then look for that as reader, it is the best up to day:

This theme has dark notifications. Yes it costs money but his themes are excellent. Not all notifications look 100% but that is more something that he is unable to fix.

I assume it uses the same cable as the 58x. You’ll need an extender or swap out to a different cable.

This is the cable I use which adds a mic and inline controls

I am looking for a case and holster combination that fits just the phone WITHOUT the Dual screen.

Something similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/LG-Stylo-Protector-Circlemalls-Protective/dp/B07RN355Q3/

There seems to be a lot of these cases for other phones (including the LG g8) but none for the LG g8x? I have found out that the LG v50s is similar in size but no luck there either.

Also, I have a holster that fits the LG g8x WITH the Dual screen attached if anyone is looking for that. It is a bit bulky but works well (hard to find one big enough for the full package!)

> But sometimes I have to remote to a server for some quick work and having the second screen with a touch keyboard and mouse would be great.

OK, I see!

In that case you would actually be remotely controlling a Linux or Windows box through Remote Desktop! I see the advantage of using a mouse/trackpad in that case, because the remote device is optimized for mouse + keyboard.

I think in such a scenario you may consider using the flatlaying screen as a fullsize keyboard and perhaps use:

• A Wacom stylus to accurately control the mouse cursor of the remote server on the 2nd screen.

OR

• A mouse e.g. M720 Triathlon mouse - I just tested this with my G8X running Android 10 - seems to be working well, although I have not tested it with a DualScreen 2nd screen.
