Didn't work in my case...
BUT!:
When i use an icon on the desktop or in notification bar, it works. But i have combined it with a swype option in Go Launcher Ex. When i swype up, the App is launched, the screen turns off, 2 seconds after that, he turns on again and [email protected]
So i dont think its a GoLauncher Problem, hm?
Edit:
Tried to connect a minimalistic text widget with screenlockanddonate.main activity. Same result

That's strange!
I just installed the GO Launcher EX using default settings and without any theme on my Nexus S, everything is fine. Also, I tried to use minimalistic text widget to launch Screen Off and Lock and found no problem. However, you use select "com.katecca.screenlockanddonate.MainHelper" instead of "com.katecca.screenlockanddonate.main", otherwise force close is expected.
It is also fine by using gesture in my ADWLauncher. So if you are free, could you please try to install other launchers to test it or send me the log using catlog for debugging?
Thanks a lot!

That was the point! Thanks!
In Go Launcher Ex i can only select the whole App. There it crashes.
In MinimalisticText i can select an Activity of an App. When i use MainHelper instead of Main, everything is fine.
So it's fixed and working with minimalisticText, which is ok for me.
I will talk to GoLauncher Devs to make activities selectable.
Thanks man!

I find swipepad amazing, but it fails to turn up some of the times upon swiping. I tried placing the zone at bottom (so as to avoid conflict with phone's other swipes) but still occasionally the pad doesn't turn up at all.
Wrote to dev, and was told that the app has to be made to work on large screens (I'm using galaxy note). But no actions upon it by dev. I purchased all associated apps but all waste.
Does anyone know how to make the app work RELIABLY?
It works great for me with galaxy note at the default dpi. Never failed.
However if u change the dpi from 320 to lower values it does not always invoke the app. The reason is that the zone becomes smaller with smaller dpi
Do you use a lower dpi?
I did mail the dev about giving an option to let the user decide the size of the zone but no reply
Also enable the option to have it running in the taskbar. This prevents the system from killing it. ( i have never had to do it as killing by system never happened in my usage. )
I also found that having lower rt and lt coners invoke the app the best.

When you say lt and rt what does it mean?

Ok, you mean left and right. Got it.
I think it fails to invoke at times as Android functions and various apps functions too work with the same swipe actions.
Bottom zones are more reliable for the same reason, there are a few times when there is a meaning to up swipe in Android or apps. (scroll up us not an option at times, as in home screen or in dialer)
Bottom left and right zone means you are making a diagonal swipe, which again is not very common in Android or apps as an action.
I'm just guessing with these explanations here. I'm rather confused by dev's response that there needs to be some work done regarding large screen devices.
i find it real annoying that almost half the time, there's a 1.5-2 second delay when i select an app. It'll say "Start [App]..."

Which device? Doesn't happen with me
The app is bugged and never updated. If you hide pads, they show up at random. Also the app needs customizations to select. The black plain background sucks imo and 1 default sound does too.
I bought all the add-ons for it and kinda regret it. They aren't worth the money and the app fails imo when compared to wave launcher.

Working perfectly on Desire HD running MIUI. Sometimes, the app got killed by the system, so I convert the app into system app in TB, and voila! The app is now invincible.
I've rarely seen the delay, because of the OC maybe?

So there's no dedicated lg weather app, besides triggering it from the lg home screen widget (won't work with nova). This is clearly different from the g3 ports I ran on my now "old" g2 which had a weather app, and lockscreen animations worked. Is this why the lockscreen weather animations aren't working? Wtf Verizon, and what is that God awful messaging app Verizon added?!... One word.... "frozen!" - thank you ioroot!
I also tried making some nova shortcuts to the weather app (which appears in the list for activities), but it says the app is not installed....
Another oddity, where the hell did my weatherbug elite app go? It's gone from the playstore! Only the free, ad supported one is available to me....
Yep, your weatherbug, also can not find Flowly, ESPN sportscenter, apparently Verizon also wiped out the LG tasks app (although I see it in the app manager). Only weather animation or anything I've seen on the lock screen is when it's raining.
I also can not figure out how to get a message preview on my lock screen of a text rather than just "test".

yeah my lockscreen was covered with rain drops and i have espn sportscenter but i did restore all my apps from tibu
I noticed a few things missing, so I'm currently downloading a different rom and I'm going to see if I can pull those apks, add them to my Verizon G3, and get the proper weather animations along with a few other missing goodies. If someone could help compile a list of all missing features, that would help.
I know the weather animations are off, no stock browser, and no access to the Task app, but what else was there? (This will give me something to do at work today. :silly: )

Nice, I'm still plucking through, but I'll keep this thread posted with my findings. Much like the verizon g2 we also don't have the "hiddenmenu.apk", so no dialer codes will work. @xdabbeb came up with a great solution by pulling the apk from another varient, pushing it to system/app and firing of a terminal or adb code to execute it on the g2. I don't see any this wouldn't work here either.
Thanks for doing this. Is there a native flashlight app, or a way to set mms limit so pictures look better, or a way to see a text message preview on the lock screen (like the g2, had an option to read part of the message vs "New message" ) on the other g3 variants

Anyone notice the lack of wallpapers? And literally no live wallpaper! LG should have that out the box..I shouldn't have to go look for a live wallpaper or a nice wallpaper on day 1

I also noticed that if you set an Alarm, it doesn't show up on the Lockscreen. So if you want to check what time you set the alarm, there is no way to know unless you check the clock app. Talking about the weather info on Lockscreen, on the S3, after the JellyBean update, Samsung took away the Weather info from the Lockscreen. Why? I don't understand why Manufacturers are removing these simple and useful information.
That sucks, coming from a G Flex, probably the best stock weather animation out of the box, I am going to miss it. Granted I switched to Nova for awhile and lost the awesome weather widget, however still have the weather on the lockscreen.
Oh well, shouldn;'t even say I will miss it, as I will be currently rocking two phones. Flex for at home and LG G3 will be my work phone as I don't get service for crap in PA from Tmobile, my current provider. Great in the city, terrible in the boonies....still!
Should have my G3 Tomorrow, hopefully. Their CS is a joke compared to Tmobiles...also their online site!
I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to, but in your post title it says you lack lock screen weather. If you go into settings, under lock screen, you can set it to show widgets and add the widgets you want, which includes weather. From there, when you wake the device, the lock screen will show the weather widget on top.
I saw where you can check that box, I don't see any place you can actually add a widget though.
The lack of apps on Google Play is due to the screen resolution and size. When more developers start including it in their app development we will start to see more apps available from Google Play. You should be able to side-load them ok though. However there is no guarantee they will work.
You should have better luck from the more active/better developers .

If you prefer press and hold the lock screen, you can drag it down and it only displays lock. Once that's done, you can press and hold the clock and drag up to the trash. After that you can add the widget you want in it's place.
Got some rain tonight and got the animations. Definitely cool, wish they showed for all types of weather.

Gotta be the best first post in this forum.
As for the topic, XDA app and L/Nova Launcher.
I stream a lot of music and have the phone in my pocket. I was used to changing the track by holding volume key on my OnePlus. The G4 didn't allow this, so I found an app that works with Google Music player.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.silentlexx.volbtntrackctrl&hl=en
It's double tap instead of long press. I guess we'll have to wait for root for long press. The only issue is the first tap raises the volume, but I can deal with that.
I like wave launcher give me access to 5 apps from any screen easily and fast

Yes, I must agree. Great browser and fast
I am using a tracking app named Best Cell Phone Tracking App . It is the a good app for tracking other devices. Like track fmaily, friends etc.
My favorite app is Swipe Navigation. It works excellent & fast with the LG G4 and gives me full-screen everywhere, a experience without soft-navigation buttons. I'm one of those who never really get along with the soft-nav buttons taking up alot of screen space.
Only problem is that root is needed... but its totally worth it. One of the great reasons to root!

Hey got a G4 myself recently, so the first thing i did is to make my app compatible with it, including DualView support
So if someone needs a more geeky app for using the IR-transmitter of the G4 instead of QuickRemote feel free to try my app Its mostly compatible to LIRC, has Database and can export IR codes
Since i saw that the G4 has a learning feature - I'm planning to add learning-feature as soon as i figure out how it works (If someone would like to help with this just drop a line ). For link see signature
My personal favourite is Camscanner. I did a small video on it to show how it works

you also have to remember that the digitizer is on all the time and the battery will die fast because of it.
another thing is that unlike the GS7 this App will cause burn in since the clock doesn't move and remain at the same place all the time so be careful.
for those reasons i deleted the App and i'll wait for further development.
