Exact official app name for the stock lockscreen(s) on stock 4.4.2

Hey All,
Anyone know what the stock lockscreen app(s) official names are? I'm looking to use Xposed App Settings to force fullscreen mode like I have every other screen, apps and homescreens, but don't know the lockscreen app names in the system apps.
Thanks!
On a similar note, I'm guessing that the Immersive mode forces fullscreen the same way that App Settings does, is there a simple click to activate Immersive mode on all screens and apps?
Thanks again!

The lockscreen isn't a independent app, it's part of the framework (framework-res.apk). You can use modules like Immerse Me or Gravity Box to selectively force expanded desktop in KitKat.

Thanks for the info. I had already tried the settings in GravityBox and tried ImmerseMe as well, neither worked particularly well... Could be due to another app I have, Smart Statusbar+. I'll try them again without the Smart Statusbar+ installed and see what happens.

Edit to the post above from me: Gravity Box works great and even immerses the lockscreen, I didn't realize that after enabling it within Gravity Box I then had to enable it through the power menu...
Con - Double enable? Seriously?
Pro - Ease of turning immersive mode on and off, which may be nice in the future...
Thanks again @ATTACK !

List the best tweaks for your g3 here

All g3 owners would like a page just for tweaks, can be kernl,apps,etc.Post here so we can share

Install Nova launcher or similar. Never use the LG launcher again. 90% of lag issues solved. I had to do a factory reset yesterday and the few minutes I spent on the stock launcher while preparing to restore apps with Titanium made me feel murderous.

Ya always use nova its golden,I also use android tweaker,g3 tweakbox, set CPU which seem to help..Any personal tweaks you found that work well
Sent from my VS985 4G using XDA Free mobile app

Tweakbox is a must, I prefer action launcher as I'm not a fan of the iPhone style app draw. Also makes the phone easy to use one handed. Last but not least I reduce the DPI to 560 so I get more content per screen

Yes I have DPI at 570 love it

1. Nova launcher with fast animations and fast scroll speed.
2. You need this in order for step 3 to work. Install SElinuxmodechanger from the play store and set it to permissive.
3. In system tuner go to system mgr/one-click and turn on boot for app optimizations and reduce device lags.
4. When you boot up your phone the first time my phone got locked on the home screen and I couldn't launch any of the apps so I rebooted again and now I am using it for awhile and it is very smooth and responsive.

My At&t G3 setup
short version of my setup below
Nova Launcher
A customized Zooper Widget (both on my home & lock screen)
A mod/hack I found on youtube to have HotSpot enabled
Towelroot used to enable root
Xposed with G3 TweakBox
G3 TweakBox I enable:
Bigger Caller Picture,
Hide Battery Full Notification
Disable Safety Headset Volume
Skip Tracks With Volume Keys
Carrier Text Visibilty (Hidden)
Other then that I just disabled a few apps (bloatware)
Upate new xposed module installed
This weekend I wanted to test the NFC paypass option but since my phone is rooted softcard app says wont work with root and did not open at all. I searched the web and found RootCloak an Xposed Module. Once I installed that and followed the directions by adding it to the list within the RootCloak app it opened up just fine. So the SoftCard app works just fine on a rooted phone with the RootCloak module installed. Also I opened Google wallet which opened and worked just fine no problem at all. ALSO forgot to mention I installed the Swype keyboard been using it since my old S2

Good stuff guys, I know this will help new users too

out of all the tweaks i've read in lg g3 forum - intl,at&t,tmo,verizon that have the most noticeable effect in removing lag and giving longer battery life are:
1. uninstall mc afee
2. freeze google play services and google services framework.
3. if anyone can give their experience regarding nlpunbounce? tia.

It can be safely disabled, but doing so will mean that you can't use the play store and any other gapps that depends on play services.

I think greenify would be a better idea,don't you.I use gapps way to much.

Here is my setup at the moment:
Google Now Launcher + Xposed GEL Settings module - I've grown to love the Google Now Launcher with the Google Now integration so much that I'm just not happy with any other launcher. This Xposed module is a must have for those who wish to have most of the customizability of other launchers while using this launcher.
Greenify + Greeniy Xposed module enabled - Needless to say, possibly the best auto-hibernate-app utility out there. Helps with battery performance a lot.
SDMaid Pro (ROOT app) - Has a bunch of really useful utilities for cleaning duplicate files and maintaining the SD card in a clean state.
ROM Toolbox Pro - Used to be really useful in my old days of HTC Desire HD, customization features work well with CM ROMs. For now I use it occasionally for the many built-in apps including a terminal emulator, root browser, startup manager, build.prop editor among some others. Useful apps to have in one place.
Tasker - Needs no description. The most powerful automation tool ever! I use it to automatically change my wifi, data, sound & brightness settings based on whether I'm at work, home, sleeping or reading something on my phone.
G3 Tweaksbox - Thank god for Tweaksbox & root. With the unlocked bootloader I would've grown pretty frustrated if not for this. Currently using the Tweaksbox for UI Themes, Nav Bar color, Bigger caller picture, battery notification tweaks (especially that annoying wireless charging notification), etc. One of the most useful features I find is the Misc. Tweaks > "Enable Knock Off on Nav Bar" - This allows to knock off the phone by just tapping on the nav bar instead of all the way up at the status bar when using a non-stock launcher like I do. Also helpful is the feature to change the default messaging app color(hate the yellow!) found under "Message Tweaks > Theme color".
Network Speed Indicator (Xposed Module) - I like to monitor the network speeds when using the phone and for the time being when there is no support for this feature in Tweaksbox, this little Xposed module comes handy. Offers some customization as well!
Unicon (App/Xposed Mopdule) - Another must-have on any rooted phone that I have. Allows the use of icon packs on any launcher including the Google Now Launcher that I use. Changes the icon system wide. Great app!
You-tube AdAway (Xposed Module) - Gets rid of the annoying ads that popup now and again while playing vids on YouTube.
AppSettings (Xposed Module) - Allows changing per-app DPI for when you change you phone DPI and some apps get messed up.
I guess the above classify as tweaks, but while we're here, here are some apps that make my life a bit easier:
Talon for Twitter - UI customization, In-app browser + video. Used to use Falcon Pro but this one is equally good if not better with multitude of theme options
Unclouded - Keep tabs on your cloud storage accounts in one place. Useful.
Zooper Widget - Must have for theme & UI customization fanatics.
Sidebar / Switchr - Both from the same dev, both offer options to switch between apps from any screen. I used Sidebar before, Switchr offers much more now. Both are worth a try.
LinkBubble - Really really useful for surfing various links from say, your twitter feed. Loads links is a small bubble while you continue to do whatever you're doing. It's one of those you-don't-know-what-you're-missing-till-you've used-it features.
VSCO Cam - Really great alternative to the stock camera app. Offers much more editing features.
HeadsUp - If you've been missing heads-up notifications from CM/PA ROMs(like me) this is a nifty little app that brings over the functionality.
There. Most of them are probably well-known & that was a long post, but I hope it helps someone to find something new and/or useful

App optimizations: boost app loading, optimize databases, clear caches, clear clipboard.
Reduce device lags: increased responsiveness, eliminate some lags.
I don't know what each one does exactly what but I know that by switching both on I have entropy on and fs trimmer on.

Thanks. I'll have to look at these more closely.

Since i use play store and so only once a week, I just freeze it with titanium backup an d defrost it when I need it. Indeed improves battery life.
Not to forget to change and delete the default lg keyboard.

[Discussion] Lollipop on Fire HD

November 30 EDIT: This was written for Developers Preview. Probably much will apply to later releases, but it needs updating.
Here's a place to discuss Lollipop, unrelated to doing the update. (Bibikalka's how-to-update thread is here.)
Got Lollipop? What's your take on speed/stability/UI? Got a favorite tip or workaround--or just want to compare notes? Me, too. I'm posting here!
For people trying to decide about upgrading, here's my quick take:
Speed (subjective, depends on use) I don't use Fire for gaming. To me, speed seems same as 4.5.4
Stability (EDIT day 12): So far, just great. Hung it once with some cross-purpose Xposed modules, but it booted out no problem.
UI improvements: Lockscreen wallpaper; normal-looking launcher; add wallpaper/widgets/shortcuts to launcher; Lolli-style nav bar, notifications and recents (see attachments)
UI cons (for me): Can only add widgets to stock launcher (won't stick on custom), but stock has no Settings so gotta live with stock icons, persistent amazon.com search bar, 1-page dock, non-customizable status/nav bar, and more
EDIT day 7: People have already posted workarounds for some of these, as well as thoughts on speed and stability. I highly recommend installing Xposed; it's turning out to be very useful.
EDIT day 12: We have widgets! (post #34) Try converting custom launcher to system app. Works for Nova, anyway
EDIT Aug 16: Kindle Reader is broken. You can access books through Bookstore app or offline with hacked app. (post #37)
EDIT Aug 22, OS 5.2.2: Sure, Play Store is broken --fortunately, HDXposed module makes it work--but Books and other Amazon apps are fixed. See @meganoahj posts here
Random thoughts:
- What's with the Developer Preview not having developer options? (EDIT! Oh, heck, it's there! Just multi-tap the serial number, like since forever!)
- Expanded external market link choices! Haha! They include: Ask, go to appstore, don't go to appstore. "Don't go" just means do nothing; still need to block appstore to make in-app links open Play Store.
(attachments)
1 - pull-down notifications on lockscreen
2 - stock launcher w/clock widget
3 - Nova w/transparent nav bar/status bar (no widgets!)

transparent nav bar and widgets
Do you have translucent navbar/status bar on stock lollipop launcher? (I could swear I did until I set something in Nova and rebooted. Now they're both 100% black on stock.) Also, anyone found a way to get widgets on a custom launcher? Thanks!

Hey is there any chance you can see if hangouts will push notifications on lollipop update? I don't receive notifications until the app is open on 4.5.4 thanks!

I pm'd you.
EDIT: No, Hangouts didn't notify. Gmail & G+ do, xda sometimes. FB, idk. What's the deal?!

I have to toggle WiFi to get it to connect sometimes. Do we loose root after factory reset?

Stability seems rock solid, speed is the same. I disable as many Amazon apps as I can. Running Xposed w/ GB and a few others, works flawlessly (for the most part). I've had trouble getting Viper audio working, though.
IMO it's a decent update, worth daily use.

So this let's you have google search instead of Amazon search? I might get in on this. I don't xposed before, is it necessary to using this? What do you use it for?

YMMV with GravityBox, but I think it's better suited for Lollipop on this device... Amazon seems to have made less modifications to Android this time, making it possible to modify multitasking and the navbar, which was never possible with KK.

Yep, though all I did was disable the "Unified Search" apk. After installing Google Search, setting it to default and a reboot, it seems to have replaced it everywhere.

Just disable the Unified Search app. If the bar turns white and doesn't disappear, reboot. FWIW, the stock browser actually uses Google search engine now, not Bing.

Everything running fine, feels just as fast as 4.5.3 as least. I haven't had any bugs of fcs yet! Running Nova Launcher and xposed (some tweaks with gravity box but that's it). Worth mentioning some things in gravity box don't work, for example I can't get expanded desktop or get rid of the navigation bar.

I'm using "Force Immersive Mode" module for expanded desktop. It's per-app and I use it on (stock) launcher. Also enabled translucent decor in GB. It works on both bars in launcher (nice look, I think) but only on status bar in some apps. (You know, Nova had its own expanded desktop option, which seems to have gone missing, kinda like widgets. You can't get widgets on Nova, right?)
Try nav bar tweaks in GB again. I definitely was able to disable nav bar (lol, good thing I had pie controls on!) Also, nav bar height is working.

Working smooth
No problem for me either.
Everything seems stable, no bugs.
thanks a lot.

Perhaps, try the latest KingRoot, see what it does?
Otherwise there is no known way to get root from within 5.2.0 You need to have root and then install 5.2.0 while keeping root.

Any way how to enable System Ui Tuner in EMUI 4.0?

Basically the title. Is there a way how to enable this feature in EMUI 4.0?

Bump. Please, if it isn't possible, just say I can't .

If someone knew how to open, they would have responded. I'm still on lollipop but I think that if the default way of enabling is not working, it's removed or hidden for your own good (doesn't work or crashes the phone)

IMO most of the tuner options are available in EMUI, in different places. We can edit shortcuts, status bar drag behaviour, data transfer and battery numbers visibility etc.

Well can you help me removing google search icon(not a bar) from homescreen. there is no google search app installed (not even under system apps). i search and found out that system ui tuner could hide it + other stuff like battery percantage into battery tweat etc.
Update: I found the battery percantage tweak at Settings > notification panel & status bar. Still having that non used google icon which i dont like.

I see. I tried Nova Premium. Every time I try to personalize my phone with 3rd party apps, finally I go back to stock. EMUI doesn't like other apps but it is very good itself, if you like this style. If you don't like it, it's better to change the phone.

How to get pinch to show hidden apps back. A solution.

I loved how on my Mate 8 (on my homescreen) I could execute an outward pinch gesture to show the hidden applications screen. Here I could hide private apps or other apps to clean the amount of apps on the home screens. However they removed this feature from the Mate 9. Have no idea why.
Anyhow there is an app on the Play Store which will allow you to enable it again. It's called EMUI Tweaker:

Thank you. On my phone (P Smart 2019) the first solution doesn't work, but the second one works well. The best thing about the second solution is that you can edit much more than the ones mentioned.
