Re: LG G2 Homescreens : Got a cool homescreen or screenshot?

Eye in the sky weather with sticky theme.
And as far as I know there is no way to make the notification bar transparent on a third party launcher. For some reason LG doesn't allow it.

Trying eye right now.
Thanks.
Looks great.

No, he means he wants it to look transparent.
He needs an app that somehow needs to activate the camera and then make it a live video feed as wallpaper. I don't see how that would work but that's what he wants to do..

Although thanks for the link, I will try that, I was looking for a iOS7 effect wallpaper.

Sounds neat but wouldn't such a thing be a battery vampire?

The circle widgets that I used are ones that I made using Zooper Widget Pro:

If you decide to get Zooper Pro, you can PM me your email address and I'll send you the files for the widgets.

Thanks. I will check out the app. I am just at the point where I am ready to customize my phone. I have had it about two weeks and wanted to live with it as for a while. The only thing that really bugs me about the UI is that you cannot have blank home screens without that saying about adding widgets and apps in the middle of the screen.

I used the stock launcher for two days before I switched to Next Launcher.
The best (no gimmicks) easy to use, minimalistic launcher is Nova. But any of the launchers will allow you to keep a blank page.
(I like Next Launcher because it allows you to re-size and move widgets anywhere on the screen, whereas Nova lets you change the grid size but you cannot overlap widgets.)

Tip: If you switch to another launcher, you will lose the Knock ON feature when using the launcher (except in the notification bar). I installed Screen Off: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...d=com.cillinsoft.scrnoff&hl=en&token=b0CDGcfM and it allows you to use the Knock ON/OFF feature just like the stock launcher.

Thanks much. Can you hit anywhere on the screen or do you have to tap the app icon for Screen Off to work? From what I can see from the play store it looks like I would have to keep that app on each home screen.

You do not have to keep the Screen Off icon on the homescreen if you use Nova launcher or Next Launcher. Both of these launchers have "gesture" settings, so you set double tap to initiate Screen Off (which will then shut off the screen). You can then double tap on any blank area of the screen!

Re: LG G2 Homescreens : Got a cool homescreen or screenshot?

Got ya. Thanks. Since I cannot get that stupid saying off the blank screen [don't know why LG does that] I will for sure get a launcher. I am thinking Nova or Apex or Next. I have to check each one out at the store
