Home 4.0 w/ app drawer is out - LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Open the LG SmartWorld App, Click the menu in the top left, expand LG Specials, then open LG Apps. You can then download LG Home 4.0 with the App drawer.

It that the same as the stock launcher except with an app drawer? I thought we had 5.0

Looks very similar to the stock launcher. It's worth the 1 minute of effort to go out and download and set as home launcher. Not having the app drawer was way more annoying than I thought it would be.

Yes double tap to sleep works. So far it is just like the g3. I am very happy now!

If you watch the LG Video again, you will see all of the icons revert to 4.0 icons.
Geeksmurf is correct - this is the app drawer implementation they show in the video.

added the APK to my general thread HERE
link to APK on Codefire is HERE (if you don't want to go through SmartWorld)

What options are in the settings menu in the app drawer?

I'm just curious is this an update to the stock launcher ? Compared to the one in G4 or V10

Nice to have options, I'm surprisingly liking the no app drawer. Never thought I would

It's a different launcher. The only difference I can see appears to be the app drawer addition.

From pictures and videos I have seen, the only difference I've spotted is that the folders are square instead of rounded squares on the 4.0 launcher.

Is this only compatible with G5 I currently have the V10

there is also a new calendar via the test market, which shows version 3.1, so unless google has changed their version numbers on their market, ie, Froyo's calendar is 2.2.1 and GB's is 2.3.3 then most of these apps are 3.1/Ice Cream apk's and are going to be backwards compatible with previous versions of android.
As a side note, Aerosmith and Cage the Elephant then Backstreet Boys? seriously...
Hahaha. I have a little bit of everything!
it overwrites the touchwiz right?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Not sure. Probably. I'm not using a touchwiz rom.
works on CM7 and MIUI if anyone's wondering.
it didnt over write anything if you just install it.
tried it, TW is still better though this is beta.

If you havent already, check out the "Recent" view in landscape. Pretty cool, Dont know why they dont have this option for all filters in landscape though...

i have Fancy Widgets full version
Will look thru it, thanks
UPD
Couldn't find it in the Fancy Weather settings
Try using true weather live wallpaper with it, I think it is the wallpaper that gives it the animation. There is paid and free on play store
From the darkest reaches of my mind...... Somebody turn on the light
Try Beautiful Widgets, withthe Beautiful Widgets Animation package.
You guys.. that is NOT what he is talking about.. he is talking about having a weather widget DISPLAY on the lockscreen. Like this
Use Widget Locker & your favorite weather widget.

This is what i was going to suggest but it eats resources (RAM) and doesnt work very well in my experience. But is a good alternative.
My understanding is that you will be able to do it when we get 4.2

Sort of.. it'll be on a separate page instead of the same which is kind of stupid TBH Google should have taken a page out of Cm' development page and had it on the same page at least for weather.

when I pull up a photo with the stock gallery app it shows the menu bar you are referring to, then a second tap makes it go away, & a third tap brings it back

Yep. One tap SHOULD make it go away.

Unfortunately this seems to be a widespread problem. From what I've seen it has to do with the "accessibility"settings. I had the same problem when I installed NoLED and gave it permission under accessibility. After I turned off the accessibility feature everything went back to normal. Hope that helps.

If the status bar is gone you can swipe down from the top of the phone/earpiece and the statusbar will come back, and if you swipe up on it it will go back again. Only on a TouchWiz ROM, but it works in all apps.

I don't think it is the app so much as it is having given it permission under accessibility but I could be wrong.

thanks asus for listening...new launcher has homescreen icon lock and with other security feature...those on other 3rd party launcher....you might wanna try new asus launcher agains....thanks
I didn't appreciate the notification for App Lock since I'm using Nova Launcher... Hopefully that was just a one time thing.....
Sent from my Golden Zenfone 2
excellent....
finally something that lock the apps
This is a very useful feature I saw a little bit of when I flashed the latest stock firmware and reset my phone this morning. It's a pity I don't use ASUS launcher, I hope other launchers implement this privacy feature!
ASUS is doing well on adding new features like being able to disable almost all system apps in latest update!
A moratorium on new features would be welcome however if it meant the 5.1 update would drop already!
heard the latest ZF2 variations like selfie, laser etc. have a new zenui launcher which is light and fast. Hope they release the same for existing ZF2 as well.
Nice addition, the lock home screen option was required there. :good::good:
I love the strides they've taken with the Asus launcher. Really commendable. The two different layouts, the privacy features and now the nice, fullscreen folder style.
Guys i cant use applock feature.
It keep asking me a password.any suggestion?

Are you sure it's not just asking you to set up a password?

After the update i got do many bugs..i did a hard reset and it was gone..ne sure to make back ups
If asking for password that is the other old fuction, it supposed to lock the app so no one can open it but with password and it can take the picture of that person who try to access it

Hi all!
I have created a new theme called 'Stockify' for EMUI4+ devices. It has a few interesting things...
Where possible all icons are replaced by their stock Android equivalent
Other icons are replaced with fully licenced icons from icons8
The theme is deployed via the Play Store - you will be automatically notified of updates and it will take you through the install and update process
The install / update tool will be open source shortly for all EMUI theme developers
The theme is currently in Beta, I will be stockifying a lot more, but you can have a play now!
Simply download from the Play Store at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.olabs.theme.stockify
Enjoy!

Great job! No more ugly square background icons! ?
Thank you dude it looks nice
Sent from my EVA-L19 using XDA-Developers mobile app
It looks great, but can you make the icons slightly smaller? or an option to adjust icon size? it looks pretty big for me. Thanks
great job, thanks a lot
Sent from my EVA-L09 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Love it but I'm agreeing with other user if icons could be a little smaller
Sent from my EVA-L09 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Looks good but I would like to know if the font is changed by this theme before using it because there is no way to go back to stock font with EMUI 4 as there is no more font changing utility in stock OS.
This theme doesn't change the fonts.
Thanks @paulobrien now I can use Google Now launcher
Will the design of the settings, dialer, message and contacts app be changed in future updates?

Thanks from a very grateful Mate 8 user. Finally a theme that doesn't suck. Even if you are going to theme the other parts of the system, please keep one version as it is now.
Looking great. The only icon I personally don't like is the Heath icon. Heart is kinda medicine one, maybe it is worth to update it with something not so anatomical? ?
