LG Home apk? - LG V40 Questions & Answers

Hello All,
I posted this in the V30 forums, as I own a V30, but was told to go here. Does anybody know if there is a working version of LG's most recent Home apk? I like LG's email app and widget more than the Outlook app and widget, but I want the ability to slide up for the app drawer, and the Google Feed off to the left. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Not recommended. This will most likely crash your launcher or SystemUI, as these APKs are specifically complied for the V40 hardware. However, if you still want them, let me know and I can extract the APKs.

If you could, I'd greatly appreciate it. I can roll it back easy enough. I'm using Nova right now anyway.

[MOD][APP]Stock Launcher App Sorter - Abandoned

UPDATE: Unfortunately I have had to abandon this project, please accept my apologies.
I would like to introduce a little project I'm going to be starting, my first attempt at an App for android, one which will bring added functionality to the stock launcher on rooted devices.
Having tried a lot of different launchers, I actually prefer the stock launcher, for all but one thing which is the way it sorts Apps in the app drawer. The stock launcher sorts apps by name like most other launchers, but it splits them into System Apps and Downloaded Apps, so it can be hard sometimes finding the app you want.
My App is going to provide a way of sorting the Apps how you want, without modifying the stock launcher, so that it can last between updates.
My main aim is to provide a simple interface to pick how you want the Apps sorted, primarily alphabetical, ignoring whether they are system apps or downloaded apps.
You could do this by moving apps around manually but it would take a long time, so the idea is to automate this process.
While I work on the base of the app, I would like feedback on what other ways you would like the apps to be sorted, so that when you open the app, you can pick from different options as to how to sort the apps.
I look forward to reading some of your input.

good luck. I'd add:
1. Most used
2. Last updated
3. Recently installed
4. Also if it is possible add search bar on the first page
All these options are available in GoLauncher. So if you refer to that you know what I am asking
-S
Great,
But can you even add or mod the default tasker like when we long press home key at the bottom it takes us to task manager where we have to kill all unwanted application one by one, can you add a kill all button to that it wwould be amazing if you can do that.
By the way thanks a ton.

obviously u dun have htc phone..
lg's contacts and phone is ugly. plain and simple.. join feature is ineffective.. stock icons are lame.. lockscreen is LAME and slow and buggy with faceunlock.. if u manually join contacts, u cant edit the name.. and the names can be random and wrong..
themes are jus 4.. and ugly.. weather is ugly.. its slow..
list is too long.. lg made an epic device.. *WAAYYY BETTER THAN ONE X* but ****ed up with the software..
I like the launcher but this is annoying, nobody wants to.continue this? I think it would probably be easier to just mod the launcher itself

Unlocked V40 from B&H

Hey guys just a few quick questions here. Did anyone order the V40 from B&H?
If so I have a few questions about some of the system apps. Mainly does it have the stock lg messaging app or did they ditch that with the international version as well? Does the Google dialer from playstore work on the phone or is it blocked? Yes I know there's a patched version but I'm wondering about the one on Google Play. On the G7 it worked fine. And if someone could posts few screenshots for me that would be swell too. Looking to see settings, dialer and if possible the stock messaging app (if it was included)
Did not come with a LG Messaging app. Is compatible with the Google Dialer and Contacts. Installed both and then uninstalled com.android.contacts to remove the lg dialer and contacts, and everything is working fine. Also have done the same with calculator and clock so I could use more overlays with swift black. Settings look different from the V30, but probably similar to the G7. May attach screenshots later if I remember and have time.

Great thanks for this. How about lg calendar app?
It came with Google Messages (currently running 3.7.052) as the stock messaging app. I don't know about the normal version but the beta of the Google Phone (26.0222117411) app works just fine directly from the store. I've attached dialer and messaging screenshots with personal information cleared out.

Calendar is the Google version.

Another question for the international one, if that's the B&H one. Can you turn off the camera shutter sound right from the app?
Can someone show me a picture of the theme app open? I want to see something that will be helpful moving forward and let me get a head start on a few things

Well if your taking requests a black out theme would be nice and battery saving....and whatever wallpaper you wannna go with as the creator.
Well I don't take requests per say but I sure do listen to people and try to cater as best I can. I will open a support, communication and feedback thread once I get something done. I've had quite a few people asking for pixel experience light and dark so that will be first followed by something else that I've been tinkering with and possibly an icon pack add on since some people prefer stock icons, with the icon pack they can have the choice

Improved stock Gallery

Hey all. For anyone that hasn't already done so, the gallery app from the V40 (I'm guessing) is compatible with our devices. Personally feel it's a big improvement over the original.
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/lgele...-release/gallery-7-0-45-android-apk-download/
Edit: I've also updated the stock camera and quick memo apps using the current ones on apk mirror and they work well. Mileage may vary on all of this as I'm running a bunch of magisk modules (anxious by whiskeyomega for example which already mods the camera) so that's why I'm not giving a feature run down of each since it may differ on stock devices.

That's the same camera version in my module, Whiskeyomega (not tagging to not bother them) was just where the needed code for the dual speaker and DAC code was from.
Warning for others: Anyways you should always be weary of updating OEM apps via regular install methods (outside of the Play Store) as they aren't always uninstallable via regular methods. And you'll have to delete the data/app/*app name* folder in twrp if you ever end up with a non boot or something.
Also if you ever do want the updated versions from newer phones just download roms, kdz, dumps and extract what you want. You can get newer stuff sooner.

Very good point. I made the mistake of assuming everyone has a recent backup....
Just now I almost had to restore my phone thanks to some apks that I wanted to try out. So please don't be a guinea pig with this kind of thing unless you know you can revert back to a working version if the worst happens. (For reference I tried updating system ui, network, and settings packages that were all just posted recently and ended up uninstalling those due to system ui loop and then subsequent crashes)
That being said, the gallery app seems like a pretty safe update across the devices but everyone's risk is their own to take.
A bit of offtopic - as i browse apkmirror's LG software (https://www.apkmirror.com/uploads/?q=lgelectronics) i can see that there is for example newer version of FM radio. Did anyone try it on V30? How do i know for what phone is this version?

Did not work for me, even when tried as a system app. If you want the FM radio app, I am fairly certain the one ported from verizon in the LG v20 forum works fine.

From the same page I updated my LG Home and Music. I do like the UI improvements on those apps. But I realize those are draining my battery! The screenshot below shows what I'm talking about.
Is there a reason why newer version demands more battery?

You can uninstall an OEM app that you tried to install but didn't work. Just go to Apps & notifications/App info/ then choose your app. If your OEM app doesn't have the uninstall option, look at the top right for the three dot menu, then select uninstall updates. Now your back to where you started.

It works, but not with default theme.
I was able to install almost all updates except FM and I have stock LG V30+ Oreo
NOTE: Don't update system UI, I did it and lost navigation bar and notification bar.
Also if anyone get's into any issue or fc, simply go to apps and from top right three dot menu, select uninstall updates. you should be good to go after that.

Did you install the lg home latest version successfully?
Since yesterday the weather app is crashing when I leave it. I don't know why, nothing has changed but I think is for an update of google play service. It's only my thinking not sure about it.
Anyone with an idea ?

Yes. Did not find any change though. Anyways I use Ruthless pixel launcher.
And checked camera after this update. Loving it every bit. Has new Google Lens and it could be a placebo but I feel the picture quality has improved and so is the front cam quality.

Wallpaper changing after restart

Hello people, yesterday I received my Mi 9t Pro and so far I'm quite happy with it. One problem I'm facing is the following: I'm using pixel 3 live wallpapers via Google background app and whenever I restart the phone the lockscreen wallpaper is going back to the stock one. Home screen stays the correct one.
Is anyone facing similar issues or has any idea how to solve this?
Edit: sorry for wrong topic! Thanks to the mods for moving it!
Hey, I had exactly the same problem and I read a solution somewhere that actually worked for me :
Go into settings / manage apps then look for "wallpaper carousel" or something like that and uninstall it.
And that's it, hope it works for you.

Thank you for the answer. I can not find anything similar to wallpaper carousel in my app selection... I might have removed this already with debloating I think!
Not in my indian variant .. but some themes will cause such errors ..
Please goto stock theme.. and check it back
Note : don't uninstall themes ?

Then I remember reading a few times that there is a problem sometimes with MIUI and third party app managing lockscreens.
Have you tried to set it up via the miui gallery app instead of Google app ?

Alternative widget for Photos/Video?

Just got my XZ1c today, and I'm pretty happy with it, but it's missing the Photo/Video widget that I've used on my previous Xperia Compacts. Anyone know of a similar widget that I can use?

Are you on the stock rom?
There is a similar widget built into the default Lineage OS gallery.
I'm on the stock rom, and don't plan to root this phone for awhile. The last time I looked for a similar app on the Play Store (I was hoping to use Nova Launcher), I couldn't find anything like it. I had one page in my stock launcher dedicated to the Photo/Video widget.

Try this out:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/linea...ry-1-1-40030-3-android-apk-download/download/
See if you can get the widget working from this gallery app. This is the Lineage OS one I mentioned before.
Thanks! Works, but not like the old one...
The old version would display one picture or video at a time, was scrollable, and clicking on it would take you to that object in the Gallery app. It can be resized to fill the whole page. That's what I'm looking for. Thanks for your help, though!

Happy to help.
My last suggestion would be to look for an older version of the Sony Album app on Apk Mirror.
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-mobile-communications/album/album-9-8-a-0-8-release/
Find the version that still has the features and see if it works on Android 9.
No luck so far...
Could it be possible to copy it from Z1c or Z5c? It was a system app.

You might be able to find the same version of the album app on APK mirror that is on the z5c. You should be able to see the version number of the app in the app info page in the settings.
Or try extracting it from the z1 or z5 if you still have them. I am not a developer so I don't know if this will work for you, but I usually use "my apk" from the playstore to create an APK from apps on my phone. Then you can try to install that APK on the XZ1c.
my apk link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andatsoft.myapk.fwa
Awesome, I'll give that a shot. Thank you!
Animated Photo Widget + does the trick!
