Side sense looks completely different to me but it still works. I rarely use it.

Maybe it's been deactivated? Check it out!
Options -> system -> gestures -> side sense

It's disappeared for me a few times, generally a reboot and then toggling it on and off fixes it. That said, I hate the bar. There is no good placement for it where it's both easy to reach and doesn't get in the way. I setup tasker to manually launch it with Shortcut > Side Sense Window Manager.
Shoot now mine disappeared and won't come back. I had it disabled but now I miss the little guy...
Edit: Trying to see if I can restart the service manually but not sure which one and I can't quite get the format right to launch any of them yet.

sense 4.1 isnt the change that say sense 2.1 to 3.0 or 3.0 to 3.5 was
its incremental bug fixes really...many of the bugs are fixed by custom roms anyway

watching the video, it seems quick settings are back, it's the version that mik made, idk if football added it in or htc?
I really want to change my recent apps button to be used as a menu button. Every single app has the 3 dots in a different place. I want to able to press a single button in a centralized place and have the same action occur across every app. It's dumb they would get rid of that. Quick Settings aren't bad, either.

It is also supposed to be silky smooth and allow for lag free movement with live wallpaper. And by what I saw on the video it looks very promising.

I agree with this 100% :good: the "Settings" button is one of the most used buttons, and having it bounce around is a real PITA.

Email or otherwise contact the developer of the app and tell them to upgrade them to the new standard. Once they do that it will get rid of the 3 button bar at the bottom of the screen and settings should be in the right location.

2nd screen/widgets?

Does the V10 allow you to put a widget on the second screen? It suddenly occurred to me that if I were able to put a zooper widget there then the second screen would be only limited by my imagination...
As far as I can tell, the answer is no.
I wanted to put a flashlight widget on there, and there is no option to put widget.
There is a flashlight option there when main screen is asleep, but when you have it unlocked, its a different set of options.

Thanks for the feedback. Probably not a deal breaker for me, was just curious.
I am surprised there is a lack of customization for this screen. Coming from the note 4 edge, I was used to limited options but with a least a solid set of choices for configuration. Hopefully this will be expanded for my V10
Those hoping for root/custom roms probably have high hopes for unlimited possibilities in regards to the second screen.
I am not looking for root. But I'd like to see what if anything gets added and or changed when LG rolls out the 6.0 update for our pretty little devices. I haven't even played with mine yet its waiting for me to get home from school today. UPS hid it well I hope.

When the main screen is on there is a flashlight in the notification bar when you pull out down. Put the down arrow key in the home touch button section and you have as many steps to the flashlight as you would if you could put a widget in the second screen.

Yeah I am aware of that selection. I just don't care for the chunky look of it.
But thank you for pointing it out nonetheless.
I'd really like to see the whole notification pull down revamped into something slimmer.
Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk
So because you don't like the look you won't use the feature?
I had the G3 and LG skipped the notification flashlight in the Lollipop update. It was the first thing I checked for on the V10. I guess I'm not really picky about how it looks as long as I have the feature that doesn't require extra apps.

Agreed. The flashlight in the pulldown is very nice, and having a quick access when the screen is off (second screen) is even better. Coming from the G3 as well. Very useful.

Nope, think you misunderstand or read way too much into my comment. I of course will use the ability that is there. I'd prefer it to be available on the 2nd screen, and I don't care for the look or of the notification pulldown.
I'd say that area is the least attractive part of the whole phone. Of course, that is not going to make me not use the phone either.

It is on the second screen. When the main screen is off you slide from right to left and the flashlight widget is there. Doesn't make sense to have it also on the second screen when the main screen is on since it's in the notification pull down.
Sorry for the misinterpration.
Of all the Android skins I like LG's the best. I've had pretty much all manufacturers.
Of course I would love to have Android exactly the way Google designed it but I haven't seen any device that I like with pure Android.

Swiping doesn't do anything. Really annoying "feature". Hopefully will be gone in a future update
I love using front cam with the flashlight/torch on. But the latest update disabled the flashlight when the cam is on. Anyone knows how the workaround?

Get rid of animations in home screen

Hi,
I am on latest version of coloros 7. I have tried everything I know but have not been able to get rid of these home screen animations which look like brackets at the border of the bottom edges.
Please help.
Attaching pics for clear picture. Note the brackets () at the bottom edges.

I have tried resetting themes to default. Home screen settings to different drawer styles. Changing icon types. Assistive ball off.
Everything literally in home screen and lock screen magazine menu.
The thing is it happens only in full screen mode. With navigation buttons, those brackets dont exist.
Btw, do you have these jn your mobile?

What is "Assistive ball"?
Sorry but I can't replicate this on my device.

I have absolutely no idea to be honest.
Have a look and see if there are any toggles you can turn on or off.
One at a time. Check. If no...turn back on/off. Check another.
Just a thought.
As I said...I cannot replicate the issue you have and it is clear that you have some settings on your device that I don't, so I'm kind of looking at this blindly

On a different topic, could you suggest me a good back cover and screen guard for the device.

No problem.
I still have the original case and film screen protector that came in the box.
Found the solution
This is pretty much a swipe up to trigger google assistant, it appears when you turn on gesture control and it's a prompt (albeit not a very good one) to make you understand how to trigger it .
Since you can't swipe up from the middle to activate the assistant you need to swipe from the corners , do so 5 or 6 times and eventually the prompt disappears.

Question Turn off bluetooth visibility while it's on..?

This is an option ALL phones i had had. Strangely not in the BT menu.. Like it's hidden by Samsung by choice..! How to get it back/find a way to switch that option? I want to use BT but don't want to be "found"!

Isn't it always hidden, unless you are in the bluetooth menu or you have already paired the device?

Bro, you think I'm dumb enough not to have checked that before asking?
Children, don't argue
Use Good Lock and you'll find the option you're looking for under Quickstar.

I was curious so I checked it. My phone is not seen when not in Bluetooth menu. So that's good to know. Goodlock/Quickstar will help hiding Bluetooth and or other icons

GoodLock is nice, but neither in Quickstar, neither other section i found the solution to my issue.
I was posting from (gasp!) iPad, now here's a screenshot of my phone (the "W" Canadian variant, but I doubt that makes a difference).
BTW, there's also SystemUI Tuner that can accomplish the same.
EDIT: Oh, I just realized you're not looking to hide the BT icon, but to keep the phone invisible while BT is on. This is not it.

But that is the standard for all Android phones for several years.
Do have any of the sharing options enabled, which maybe makes you visible?

What are those "sharing option" you refer to..? Just having BT turned on makes you visible. This is by default on any device. Usually there's a setting to make your device "'invisible". I checked on older Galaxy : it's there! Sometimes, manufacturer intentionnally HIDE a setting in menu. So i can be reactivated, but i dunno the process.

Search for "Nearby sharing" in settings...
This seems to be related to 2 settings - "Nearby sharing" is in Google settings and then there is "Quick share" as well...
Indeed there's such option in "Nearby sharing".. But it's only for this service : Phone's still visible even if you disable visibility in "Nearby sharing".. There should be an option in the BT (sub)menu itself as said.
