Hello everyone, I have what some may consider a bizarre question. I am wondering if it is possible to use a galaxy s3 motherboard for an experimental device. For example, buy a screen assembly of a larger size, maybe 10 inch and use the motherboard to power it up. If its not possible with this phone in specific, could it be with another one? In case that it were possible, what would be the complications involved with this process. Thanks!
Hi everyone,
So the question is simple: how hard is to port a firmware that is designed for one android device to another android device?
The devices in question is Samsung Gear Live and LG G Watch R. Both have the same cpu model and same tech specs. While Samsung has square LCD display, LG G has a round LCD display. I am assuming both have different components and drivers for bluetooth/wifi, barometer and other sensors.
However, this should be mostly doable if I can compile kernel modules for the missing drivers, yes?
Hello,
I just sold my lg v30 + and I bought the mate 10 pro.
On the LG V30 + there is a parameter that allows you to change the resolution or/and the fluidity of a game.
Is there any option like this in this phone ?
Thanks to read and to help me
How to make the LGs Dual Screen Case work with other phones? There's always a way for everything with Android. I found a development page for the dual screen on LGs site but I don't know how to go about any of that yet. Maybe on rooted phones it would be easier to figure out or does it have to be written into the software? Thank you guys!

Dual screen case won't work for other phones.
Also this isn't the right section to post this.
It's using HDMI 1.4 slimport by Analogix
Could you use G8X dual case on V50 Thinq (one that is already set up for dual screen)?
Can you get it to work with other phones ? Older LG thinQ phones like the v35?
Naah. It surely won't work. Even if anything lights up the second screen somehow, a custom rom like that of LG's would be needed to use the same
The most you could do is mirror your screen and cant use it as seperate screen.

It will works fine bro U just need USB 4 SUPPORTED device or any Smartphone that capable Display output via USB port like all Samsung Flagships
U can use Samsung Galaxy S9 or any other Flagship Samsung with that dual screen and you will definitely get all benefits of Samsung Dex
I have my gaming monitor that have type c display input when i plug my Samsung Galaxy S9 to my monitor via type c to type c cable and it Works with My monitor
LG phones should works fine with any Type c input monitor and projectors
I don't have G8X to test but it will works fine :good:
It wont work.

tried v30 and v40
I've tried putting G8X DualScreen case onto v40, V50 korea, v50 us, v30, v50s
Only v50 korea shows usb connection, power supply mode
But the screen, charging, buttons don't work at all
Also you need matching firmware
G8X DualScreen case (v515) works with 901lg & v50s
Velvet DualScreen cases (g905 and g915) for example doesn't work with each other
hhy does anybody know hhow the dualscreen works? try to get it running on my crdroid rom but onnly butttons andd usb conneeection works for now
Can we create an app that would replace the need for the LG ROM or Firmware?
I recognize this is an old thread, but some of the questions here are still valid. I've been using a G8X with Dual Screen for the past year and a half and have no current plans to change up. This phone rocks and is still going strong.
If I understand correctly, the GX8 Dual Screen case is compatible with the V50S (not V50), right?
I'd like to get a V50S for the 5G capability, but keep using my Dual Screen case.

It is, the V50s is pretty much identical to the G8X, but it has more RAM and storage. The 5G is not very well supported, for starters it's the 2.5G variant, 41 NSA that works in some networks in Canada, US (T-Mobile), Saudi Arabia, South Korea, China and Thailand. It also has a smaller selection of languages and you cannot root it without breaking the fingerprint reader (the fixing hack does not work on the V50s as it never had the Android 9 version that has the bug needed to fix it). It does work well with the Dual Screen case thou, and as a Korean model you get the FM radio and the built-in call recording feature that's missing from the US G8X.
Wow, that's great info @zdanee , thank you! The more I look into it the less likely it becomes. While the larger storage and RAM are appealing, I'm on Verizon and wouldn't be able to use the 5G. Plus it has LTE Cat 19 vs the G8X Cat 20 so it has slower data speeds in general.
Thank you again for your insight!
So I'm familiar with windows systems, I'm not familiar with Android, but I know in Windows it's part of the operating system or graphics drivers that says " I have a main monitor, now I see a second monitor. Let's use it. Hey there's another mouse, let's use that."
I'm curious if software could be written to support this or if it's something that would have to be written into the kernel?
I tried to do it and ended up with my DS bricked.
See if this helps you in any way.
Dual Screen "LMV515N" for LG G8X Bricked, Need Help!
This is a Summary of how I managed to Brick my DualScreen case by Deleting the Firmware on the dual-screen chip. (and Possibly, How it can be fixed) I was trying to make a Mod for the dual-screen case to be able to use it with other android or...

Yes, you are right.
Hello everyone. There is a thing called Renegade Project which allows you to install Windows 11 Arm on some phones. I've already installed it half a year ago on my old OnePlus 6 and used this phone as a mini Steam Deck with a Bluetooth joystick, but now the thing is also available for LG G8X. Has anyone tried this yet? I am wondering about a performance difference between 845 and 855 Snap in Windows games
Support Status
wiki.renegade-project.cn
Legacy Support Status Matrix
wiki.renegade-project.cn
I'm trying it rn and Windows 11 itself runs great, unfortunately there are some drivers issues like the lack of audio, USB and DP support which is a deal breaker for me, also the GPU driver has some glitches (probably fixable by using a different one). i tried a few games like
Ori and the Blind Forest : Playable at around 25 to 45 fps at 720p
Tomb Raider (2013): runs at mostly at around 30fps to 35 fps with a few minor dips at 1080p lowest settings
GTA IV: Garbage optimized game, starts running at 20fps and after driving 10 Centimeters dips to 15-10. same fps at 1080p and 800x600
well this work on a lg g8 thanks

Unfortunately the G8 is not officially supported, you can still try and still hopefully works with the G8X or G8S drivers/UEFI, no guarantees.

Thanks for the reply. And I found out that after I odered the lg g8 I order a lg g8x to try with it bricked a g8x trying to root and then by mistake I hit in qfil erase the hole flash by mistake tryed to get it back but it was a no go not even a the hs qd loader. Com port is showing up any more that lg g8x I had a hard time with rooting the device and getting the root and twrp to work on the 1st lg g8x I got the 2nd lg g8 then found out it not really supported on that one but that lg g8 tought me alot What on the rooting part of things and flasing the boot loader and doing cross flashing as well so hopefully for the this next LG g8x things work out for the best and i get it to work
