.....either you have the menu bar at the bottom or you have pie controls. It looks stupid having both, dunno if you can disable nav bar without root?
Pie controls might be a question about taste, but having to make it appear by gesture everytime takes too much time. I think the tablet UI nav bar is a better solution for devices without physical buttons.

I do agree, having both is of no use, and hiding the navbar without root access is impossible. Also PIE control is as you say it take too much time and make android use not really smooth. Tablet UI is a good alternative to some extend. It is only good if use in landscape mode or with the left hand or both hands in portrait, as well as the notifications are less accessible due to pagination. Android is best with physical buttons.

cool man you rock
Do you feel that your screen isn't really calibrated? Maybe too blueish? Well, those days are gone because I bring you HisiColorChanger!!111
I have developed this app as an answer to the people who were unhappy with the screen colors. It lets you fine tune the color temperature (by now), writing the values directly to the kernel, and allows you to save them for the next boot.
The app is in the testing phase so it doesn't have all the features that you'd expect, but I want to see if you find it useful or if it's just a waste of time.
Download: Attached to the post.
Have fun!

Working good. I hope to see a + - button below to fine tune. Hard to select a certain value with just the seeker. Good job @XePeleato. Still waiting for an update in AOSP/LOS Nougat.

Yes.
This is EXTREMELY useful for us subset of users who need better color accuracy with our H8/P9, especially when it's my mobile emergency darkroom.
Please do develop the app further, maybe include +- buttons, a direct numerical input box and the ability to save/load presets? As of now I'm already VERY happy I can tune the H8 to be about as accurate as my old Note 3, as that was one of my biggest pet peeves with the H8.
BTW, it never did save its values to the kernel in my L19, even during MM and now on Nougat. After boot I always needed to restart the app to get the colour changes working. Any idea why?
Hey guys, I live in China and I just got one from their flagship store in Shanghai, must say it's indeed a very impressive phone but only on hardware perspective, as for the software, nah.
More details will be available once I have time to explore, main phone still will be Galaxy S8 and iPhone X at this moment

I would say it's okay for the camera but not the best, its cheaper sibling Vivo Nex has better image quality compared with.
The speaker is mono unfortunately, I think they don't have enough space to fit a large audo component into that tiny upper frame, a bit sad.
Battery is above the average, will do a intensive battery consumption test once I have time.:fingers-crossed:

So far the only way is to get adb working
Type
Adb shell (hit enter)
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.oppo.launcher (hit enter)
However when you swipe up from center it gives you a blank screen. You then have to hit lock screen or drag up from center and hold to show recents then you can drag up from center and it will go to your launcher.
Before using the command above make sure you already have the 3rd party launcher installed
Got one from China, using in Canada right now
Google Assistance isnt working for me (cannot trigger via voice or home button)
Android Auto is not working
Have trouble to disable voicemail notification, Pixel 2 can disable it via some trick but not working with Find X
LTE band works great and download/upload speed is faster than my Pixel 2 (Telus+Freedom Mobile)
URL Links that require to open Google Play wont work, it will open the built-in broswer even I switch the default browser to Chrome, it will not open google play directly
Same idea for google calendar and other google deep intergrated services/app
Need International ROM!!!

My OFX should be arriving any minute now....
Is there an option in the settings to go without a lockscreen?
I don't use a lock screen of any sort, I'll be giving this app a shot (with & without a lock screen) to see what, if any, effect it has, with both swipe gestures & nav buttons.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock
I realize most people use a lockscreen but,thought some may be willing to go without one if, in exchange, you may be able to skip a couple of swipes/etc... in the process.

I don't see a option for that, but you might be able to delete it. I'm not going to try that one.
Yep, never use a lockscreen and go straight to the GUI from the fingerprint scanner or face unlock, positively hate the extra step. It's a key issue for me so I'm counting on you folks getting it resolved.

Found the setting to turn off lockscreen,but,at least for now,it comes at a price:
The good news: Look no further than developer options,it's the 2nd option.
The not so good: You're stuck with the yellow warning background in the status bar
The background color could be disabled on the VIVO NEX by killing the VIVO Services app,at least until the next reboot,not the best option,but,I could live with it.
Perhaps the OPPO equivalent,whatever that .apk is named,will serve us the same result,I'll be spending the better part of the evening trying out different apps.........

You can switch to widescreen all apps
It is available from the Play Store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode
The weak point of G8X is that only limited apps can be set to Wide mode.
However, this tool will allow any app to be in Wide mode.
Wide mode is available for anything such as Kindle, Google Maps, Youtube, MX Player.
By calling from QuickSettings Tile, the activity displayed on the main screen is set to Wide mode.

Hello,
thanks! I am just installing it!
Game changer! Completely transformative for productivity uses--allows landscape tablet use for gdocs, word, excel, OneNote, calendar. Gets the phone significantly closer to achieving its potential. Fingers crossed LG will enable this in more elegant fashion (e.g., allow it to stay in widescreen mode between usages and apps so that you don't have to keep turning this on).
Thank you so much! It works exactly as I hoped this device did straight out of the box.
I cant seem to get it to work for some reason.
What i done is,after adding the icon to the drop down quick settings, i open the app on the main screen the switch on wide mode from the drop down menu. My dual screen is on but becomes blank.

Hopefully LG will adjust the UI scaling and look to work best with hinge, rounded corners, hinge segmentation, angled view (like book handling or laptop standing), different screen size (v50). Pitch black dark mode will work great for more seamless coherent look

And what about dedicated apps with different view dual screen? Can you force it to be bigger? Like gallery, camera,
I also would like to see how the scaling looks like on lg stock apps (notes, calender) & third party apps (Gmail, Microsoft, games, Google news, Instagram, YouTube)
The problem with foldables is they look like a giant phone. Not like tablet
Please guys share more screenshots, it's a great main selling point

This app is indeed awesome and it makes you wonder why LG did not come up with this.
But the giant black divider is really annoying. It makes me want a ZTE Axon M with updated specs (larger screens, latest Snapdragon, dual SIM, OLED, faster storage, etc.). Basically a Microsoft Duo without the ridiculous wait and price. I can imagine a Chinese manufacturer could bring this to market a lot quicker and for a lot less money than Microsoft.

Thanks for the reply! I don't understand, I also have a German device. The program is installed but the Wide Mode icon does not appear (if I pull down the status bar) Do I need to do anything else? (The two displays are in sync of course)
Correction! Works I found the icon in the edit menu. Sensational, I don't understand why LG doesn't include it in the sidebar in the floating dual display setup.

I noticed the G8X widescreen app posted an update that includes a tasker plugin. I've created a new profile that with the following triggers:
* app switch, and
* running selected apps (e.g., gmail, word)
that launch a task that includes:
* force reverse landscape orientation, and
* launch G8X widescreen plugin.
So far so good. I'm just looking for a way to maintain the widescreen automatically for the activities that automatically switch out of widescreen, e.g., hitting the reply button in gmail.
The tasker plugin functionality is another huge leap forward.
