Hey good people. I am thinking about getting this phone. Can someone who has it post screenshot of the keyboard, especially emojis section. Really hate the blobs/droids. I wanna see how they look. Thank you.
It looks like this. Why do you care about stock keyboard?
What a bizarre topic. There are dozens of free keyboards out there, all usually better than stock manufacturer ones as well....

And it does not matter how the emoji looks on your screen, when you send it to another phone it is interpreted as an emoji using whatever emoji graphics they have.
Personally I HATE the stock LG emojiis on the LG G5 Keyboard. They are really ****. I don't even use the G5 keyboard (I use Swype). I want the vanilla Android ones back, but I have G5 H860, so no root for me...
Somewhat related though, if you choose to use another keyboard (other than the LG G5 stock one), you still get a damn annoying notification that you aren't using their keyboard. More frustrations! LOL!

Using SwiftKey from 4 months, never had such Notification.
This is what I see in terms of the notification. See screenshot. The fourth icon from left. It's nothing to do with the Swype keyboard I'm using it's just showing cos I'm not using the LG keyboard. I looked into it, and others see it too. Apparently no way to remove unless you have root.

Nope, that is a notification that appear when you use any type of keyboard, Even the lg one, it allows you to Change the keyboard quickly.
I know. That's what I've been talking about. I never said it was otherwise.

Nope, you were talking about an annoying notification that appear only if you choose another keyboard other then the lg one, and that remind you that you are using another keyboard, and this, is totally false.
Maybe a quote of your post will help you:

Another thing is that this, afaik, is not a "LG thing", it's present also in other Android devices.
It's the same thing. That is what I meant. It's a notification that cannot be turned off. Unless you know a way?

It's not the same thing. What you meant? I can't, as other users here, read your mind and understand that a "notification that reminds you that you are not using the lg stock keyboard" and "notification that appear on many (if not all, because it's an android thing, you know) android devices when you use any keyboard" it's the same...
Really, back in topic after this useless discussion, go to settings, general, language & input, current keyboard, select more, disable all keybaord avaible but one.
Have a nice day!
You ought to stop twisting my words and misquoting me. We're all on the same side here dude.?*
Have you been able to go to Settings > Language & Keyboard > Current Keyboard > Select More, AND THEN unselect the LG Keyboard? If so you might have root. I however, like a huge majority of G5 users do not have root and cannot unselect the LG Keyboard from this screen. See screenshot attached. Because of this the notification is ALWAYS present when a keyboard is in use, UNLESS we disable all other keyboards except the LG one. Get me??*
I can only find a thread about this topic relating to the LG G4, but it is the same scenario as the G5:http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lg-keyboard-persistent-notification-t3130697

Have you tried disabling the LG Keyboard in "Apps" in Settings? The screen you have is different to how mine is displayed on an H850. I have no issues with any keyboard.
Yeah, tried a while back. I cannot disable them (there's two, one is the black theme). They are greyed out.
I have also blocked their notifications, but it hasn't helped. See screenshots...

Yes, i'm using a branded Vodafone H850, and no, i'm not rooted, i can disable all of them without anything special.
I just Added a screenshot, maybe the H860 has not this possibility? Strange, usually the dual sim variant has the same software as a the mono-sim one, with the management of the Sims...
Has anyone used the System UI tuner by @Zacharee1 on the Sprint LS998 yet?
I am nervous to use it.....I am sure I could mess stuff up. How would I get back to stock if I did?
Not worth it?

You can use it on an unrooted LG V30. I did, just follow the instructions and you will be fine.

Yes, stupid auto correct. There are instructions for how to do everything with it. I am using it on my S9. The only it can't do on my S9 is hide the navigation bar on the home screen like it did when I had the V30. The instruction for System UI Tuner are very straightforward and simple to follow.

It's where you can the status and navigation bars on the home screen. It gives you more screen real estate. When they are hidden you just stripe up for them to appear, then they go back to hidden. It's a nice feature to have. Like how I have it here on my phone, well I have the status bar hidden but haven't been able to hide my navigation bar, but I could using that app on the V30
Did anyone get power notification control worked? I have it enabled. Wanted to change hangout notification to level 3, but the slider is not working.
You can hide the bottom navigation bar on the vs996 ( Verizon's LG v30 edition). In the left side of the navigation bar, there is a real small square (it looks almost like a dot), that if you press it, it hides the navigation bar.
all of you on chinese variants of Find X, can now upgrade to new colorOS 5.2 simply by installing Beta App below , follow on screen steps and after that: go to normal upgrade method from Settins. You will have new OTA ready to download
Not applicable for Global and European variants CPH1871 / 75 .
LINK
After that you'll get a developer mode WITHOUT that annoying red banner in top notifications. You'll get notifications (lockscreen, notification shade), but NO Icons in Top. Fastboot unlock is still not possible. There is a higher Battery drain.
Btw: looks like, you CAN'T downgrade to official firmware yourself. So please TAKE CARE.

Still no notifications when the screen is off. Just a sound.
Smartthings\Hue\Yi Home\Google Home\ HotUKdeals\Whatsapp\Blue mail\WearOS apps no notifications
And I get no notifications from my phone to my android TV via the app Notifications For Android TV
Think I may sell this phone and move on.

"You'll get notifications (lockscreen, notification shade)"
Wish I got that
Is it correct that this information can not be returned to the official firmware?
After messing around for some time. I get notifications from most app when the screen is on.
But when the lock screen(blank black) starts, I get no notifications what so ever. Just sounds.
Anyway to fix this?
What's new in colorOS 5.2?
I get no notification issues and I use this china variant on color os5.1, for notifications ( FOR ALL apps, allow ALL PERMISSIONS, go to power management app and disable ALL power saving features for said apps as well as allowing all permissions from "power management" and this works for me even with screen off i get my notifications with the edge notification light
Most of my apps are now working as should(smartthings won't give notifications).
I went on to the beta and then I reset everything, and all has been great.

Yes it is. I've tried to make downgrade and doesn't work. The recovery says that the version that I've installed is newer than the latest official and abort the flash process. Fortunately the beta works pretty good but keep it in mind.
As supposed...latest ColorOS 5.2 arrived, and sadly nothing interesting
Does this allow for more "locked" apps or at least do away with the need for locking apps?

Rolled the dice and found out that:
- It does not remove the need for locking or increase the 5 app limit
- It also does not allow more than 5 apps to auto startup
Interesting development though: after doing the beta firmware update, I can no longer get into Phone Manager (and thus cannot easily get into auto startup apps)
After tapping on "Phone Manager", I get a screen overlay message that says "Permission Denied".
Can confirm that it does remove the dev orange bar. It will not remove the orange bar that is present from using Accessibility Settings.
EDIT: Updates as I poke around below
------
- After update: Shut down and Start up now retain my accessibility settings (previously even answering the phone would reset them). I use accessibility to add navigation options to the side of the device.
- I deleted com.coloros.safecenter, and now I have no "Auto Startup" options in individual app info. I'm unsure if this is just a new development in the beta or not though. I also still cannot get into the app Phone Manager (where auto startup is usually collected)
- I now also have some sort of flyout thing on the right side containing "Quick Access" apps. I never had this before. This is controlled from: Settings > Smart & Convenient > Smart Sidebar
- A new app inside of Accessibility permissions showed up called "Baidu IME for OPPO", but I'm pretty sure this was stock and I had just removed it right when I got the phone
- I'm also able to swipe notifications to the right to dismiss!

So you still have the continous weird flashing statusbar? (You use accesability, right?) Or is that gone after reboot?

Still have it unfortunately And yes, I'm using accessibility. Beta DOES get rid of the yellow bar if you only have Developer Mode enabled.
I've gone through one entire reinstall because I removed some pretty necessary stuff without pulling the APK's first. Now I'm an expert at backups of both individual APK's and the entire system through ADB hahaha.
I'm working on a guide to "westernize" or "un-colorOS"ing this phone and will be aggressively deleting apks to try and get rid of the yellow bar.
I did find that they have
Code:
com.android.systemui.PLUGINS
and that gets spawned from a ColorOS apk but I can't seem to remove the plugin. I have a hunch that's where it lives, since the orange bar groups everything under the "System UI" grouping.
Will keep you all updated!
EDIT: Oh! I was also able to create a +1 phone number account through oppo id services and use that to restore back to stock Beta after I screwed up the phone without backing anything up this first time. So I wouldn't be too scared of doing this upgrade. You can at least restore back to beta.
Had a little update.
Don't know what oppo added but great see updates coming

So since 9.0 update broke multiwindow feature. I used it as long press on multitasking button for split screen. Is there an app or something to get it back without root?

Do this: tap on the app icon at the top of the app when you're in the recents screen, there is a split screen option there. Do me a favor though, try it and see how well it works. When I do it, the app only takes up a tiny bit of the screen at the top, I try to slide it down but it just slides back up. It is there but to me it seems buggy or at least difficult to use. Let me know
Update: I figured it out. You select to open one app in split screen, and then choose any other app and they will both share the screen.

Multi-Window is not broken in Android 9. All that happened with it (and other features, I don't have a full list readily available) was a change in how we use said features.
Someone else asked the same question recently. Thread below will be of help to you.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9-plus/help/multi-windows-options-pie-s9-t3903497
I know they changed it, but I should have explained it better. I wanted to know if there is a way to get as we had it on Oreo? On oreo, there was a way to assign long press of multitasking button to split-screen current app. And I want to know if I could get that back?

Checking the users manual for Android Pie for our phone's the only way to do app pairing now is via the Edge menu.
If you want other methods then you can refer to the thread I linked (someone posted an app suggestion for what your asking in the thread). Otherwise check the Google Play store and see if there is an app that will do the trick.
So sorry if this has already been discussed but when I take a screenshot on my phone, whether it be pressing power and volume at the same time, or using the other 2 options to take a screen shot, I don't get that thumbnail image where you can select options to edit the picture, scrolling screenshot, etc.
I've searched everywhere for options, but can't find any answers online.
I see the thumbnail pop-up for literally a split second where no human can possibly select an option. The only other photo app I have installed on my phone is QuickPic but I don't think that's causing it.
Can anyone help me with this issue? The phone is only 3 weeks old and pretty stock in terms of apps on it. I keep everything very simple. Non-root of course, no mods whatsoever.
thank you in advance!

It got broken 2 updates ago for me. Broke the floating bar I was using as well. I'm using an alternate until they fix their broken updates or I just get sick of all these bugs
Did you turn your animations all the way off. If so you won't see the thumbnail with the options.

Pretty much as far as I can remember since there has been options added and a window popup made rather than just a notification for a screen shot. AOSP ROMs that I have developed for call for a window animation value, and unless it is set for a hard coded value, it will default to what the system window animation value is.

My issue is the screenshot will save, the SS will show in the notification pull down, but the edit option doesn't do anything anymore. Only share and delete work from the pull down. This is since the June 1 security patch. That patch also broke my floating bar for screenshots, screen recording, crop etc. I am having to use a 3rd party floating bar that constantly turns itself off when the phone goes in deep sleep. Even have the battery saving turned off for it. Why would they break such an important feature.

Hm, that I am not sure as my edit button for a screenshot from the notification works fine. Also all my options in floating bar are working fine. If you can get me a logcat of when you select the edit option and may be able to tell you why.
