Don't get me wrong. I love this phone and the UI and it's customising options. Still there are few things here and there that I miss from stock.
Let's list them.
I'll start with my 2,
1) Two swipe gesture on notification panel does not do any thing.
As you know , in Vanilla Android , if you swipe the notification panel with two fingers, you'll get all the toggles in one place.
Even Samsung has implemented this gesture even though they have the Quick Toggles like LG UI.
So it's kin of disappointing to not have it in LG UI.
2) No way to see all the Wakelocks and Display on , in the Battery chart,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is a big omission and I don't know why LG omitted this thing.
Add your own.
Install AOSP custom rom then.
Would like to be able to alter the icons on the lock screen

Settings -> Display -> Lock Screen -> Shortcuts
You can change the icons there by clicking on the cog above the different default shortcuts.

Coming from the Captivate, there is one main thing that I miss. The status bar buttons. I know there are apps for this, but none act exactly how the Captivate did.
I've used a few apps, but they just aren't perfect. Is there a way to have these Captivate buttons from the status bar ported to the Atrix, or an app that does EXACTLY that?

Never used captivate so I don't really know what you are talking about... Any video or pic available for us to see ?

I actually miss those from Cyanogen. There they were called Notification Power Widget. I have not found anything that can do it yet..
i would love to see that status bar on the atrix, its one of the few things that i miss from my captivate.
If you have power control plus, you can put a toggle bar in the notification tray!

I took a look at it and although it does put it in the notification bar its not a one click type deal. You hit it then it opens a new window for you to toggle in.

Yeah I dunno its mediocre.. I used notification toggle... It takes on slot per toggle so its not cm7 but it is one click. Just saying

Yea I read somewhere stock android doesn't allow it unless you make your own rom like cm7. I've also tried every program from widgetsoid to notification widget . Still can't mimic it exactly.

I have found this app work for what you are wanting to do. it wont pull down like a notification but you can make it better than that.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2
I have a whole separate page on my atrix with memory/battery/space information and then all of my widget switches
Another solution is using the app "mysettings" - It doesn't have
control from notification but you can assign long click on search button to open it then you can control all the features you had with your captivate from anywhere - even when I owned a cappy I used this app instead notification menu since that was faster.
quick settings
I had used my.settings for a while and found quick settings to be a bit better

Are you still envy of the brilliant lock screen of Sense 3.0? Now, as long as your phone is Android system, you will be able to experience the beauty of the lock screen. Only use one button, you can choose to use this agile lock screen or system default screen. Drag the bottom circle to the top can unlock screen.
This program has a lot of setting options: font, font color, font size, background settings, shortcuts settings, etc., must be well meet your needs.
If you have the "black background" problem, please set the "background alpha" to value 255, then the problem may be solved.

will Loopy tweak help to keep it work after heavy use ?
I have no idea, but you can try it. I only now that this app have cause some issue when the phone is in Airplane Mode. (you can't connect to network)
Oh haven't checked this. But I won't use this lockscreen due to missing quick setting of sound / vibration .. but i could try to use it from status bar .. i will try once more xD thanks anyway
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
I made it with loopy tweak and excluded from task killer and even if i reboot the processes with FMR (great app) it's still alive only the airplane mode problem. I think the Pin insertion is included in standard launcher /lockscreen so it doesn't work but i don't need airplane mode LOL so everything 's good.

Searching this from a long time thanks.....This Lock works better than other locks
Nice work! fantastic lockscreen.
Nice
Oh yeah. It's fine. But a little bit laggy. I wish more RAM I have shoot up. But it is very, very nice.
thanks very much, i love it

When I set the pattern in the settings menu, the dots are much smaller and cooler looking:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But when I actually unlock my phone using the pattern it looks like the stock ROM's unlock which is fat and ugly:
Is this because of the ROM or my theme?
Is there anyway I can get the dots from the 1st picture in my lockscreen?
Is there a way to remove the "emergency call" button removed? I know you can hide the clock/date through cm7 settings
I have CM7.1 by Grif with some ICS theme I found on the forum.
Sir, it's because of CM7.
All ROM's for ace which are based on CM7 usually have this problem.
As a workaround, you can try using apps such as "Go locker" from market.
PS - It is an app which will replace your current lockscreen with its own. Its customizable
First - you can modify you framework-res.apk, you can find that pictures in it and change it. The second solutions is to use unlock gestures:
You can find this option in the Cyangenmod Settings. Your lookscreen while look like this:
To unlock just draw you gesture, works perfectly for me .

Thanks. That's what I've been using as a replacement anyways.
Regarding lockscreen gestures, I noticed a sensitivity scale from 1-12. Does 1 or 12 mean I have to input more accurate patterns? Because I found that sometimes I can just randomly swipe the wrong gesture and yet the phone still gets unlocked.

I have set my sensitivity to 2, then higher you set then accurate you must draw you gesture, I am using only 2 because my unlock gesture is an X and It's really impossible to draw this symbol by swiping randomly.
After upgrading to 4.3 I now have this weird icon on my notification bar.
Anyone know what it is? The icon between Bluetooth and Alarm Clock

Ah! Thanks. That's annoying. I liked it before the update when there was no icon for it.
Notification bar is now full even without notifications :/
Oh well. LG G3 will be here soon.
Were you running a custom rom before the update? With an exception of the NFC icon, all of the same icons existed on stock Sense 4.

No. Always stock from day one.
No, the notifications on the left never existed before this update either.

the notifications with the </> can be disabled by viewing them in the pull down and long pressing on the item, choosing "app info" which will take you to that specific app, and if you don't want to see those notifications uncheck the "show notifications" option - I did this for the ones that would come up when I have my device connected via USB to computer as my notification bar was too full

I was wondering that same thing
Hi Ppl,
I just updated my Honor 7 to MM with EMUI 4.0 and there are too many little changes.
But most important is that the simple option of graph to check the battery usage i.e. which app / screen / process is using maximum battery is draining how much battery; its gone from the settings.
Now, we are supposed to take a lloooonnnnggg route for this basic need.
Use the app phone manager and follow a hell lot of steps to enter a screen which shows separate hardware and software usage.
Do you know any basic app that can help me here?
I want something like this which is no more available on EMUI 4.0

You can use a launcher like Nova and set up a shortcut to go straight to the battery setting.

Well, I'm saying that there is no battery option in settings. Hence, it's not about the launcher but the feature itself

In phonemanager goto settings (icon on top left corner) and select SHORTCUTS (first option). There you can create a desktop shortcut directly to the batterymanager on your homescreen
