[APP] Key Plus - Change LG G3 Volume key shortcuts to any app (without root)

Thanks, its good to know im not the only one. Model LG-D855. Only had it a couple of days and atm this feature would make it the perfect phone me.
Thanks for your efforts!
 
Super, works great thanks very much.

Great to have flashlight instead of quick memo (lollipop 5.0 d855)
 
Now working!
I revoked permission and uninstalled, rebooted and re installed.
Followed setup tutorial setting volume up button first and setting default.
When I tried to set volume down the camera launched and I could not set to default but I could still set the torch to volume up and this time it remains on until i press volume up again, THANK YOU!!

Spoke to soon, when the light goes off I have to hold the up button again to get it to come on again. It will sometimes stay on sometimes not.

So it might go off in a few seconds, randomly while works perfectly at other times?

It is so frustrating not to be able recreate this issue on my D855 so that I could work on it.
 
I've just installed this app and absolutely love it! One problem I have found though is that I cannot complete the setup steps for the volume down button. I lock my phone and then hold volume down until the buzz, then unlock the phone. Instead of the action choice menu appearing I just get the camera.

Thanks for the feedback.

If you are on Android 5.0, the volume down key shortcut will not work as it has been disabled by LG. In 4.4.2 it should work fine, although some users (mostly using AT&T variants) have mentioned that volume down isn't working for them.

I'm sorry, I should have given more info about my phone. I'm on a Verizon Wireless LG G3 running kitkat.

Hi,
Not working for me:
I own LG G2 D802, version- 4.4.2.

on lock screen -> press up key -> memo app goes on - not the menu in the tutorial.. (when i opened the app, i chose the camera from the list.

* the down key open the camera ( i need it to be the up key).
Thanks.
 
Could someone please tell me how to find the internal torch with an ATT in the USA. I don't think we have one.
Thanks
 
After the recent upgrade to android 6.0 on my LG G3, I've noticed something strange.
I use the optional home button at the bottom of the home screen for the 'capture+' function to create a screenshot that you can mark up with notes.

After the marshmellow update this button now turns the light on. When I disable the up button function in the Key Plus app, then home button doesn't do anything but turn the screen off.

I'm guessing that something about the way LG has mapped the up volume button to the 'Capture +' note function has possibly interfered here?

EDIT: I now notice that this optional home screen button now initiates whatever app you have selected to activate in the KeyPlus app. In lolipop this was not the case. The home screen button for capture+ worked correctly, but now this button activates whatever you have set in KeyPlus to bind to the up volume button.

It would appear that this app has been abandoned by the author Last update was July 2015, and others commenting in the reviews claim that the app no longer works with Marshmallow
 
Did you do something special @Pedalbflat? I can't get it to work on my LG G3 D855 Marshmallow

I just released an update (v1.20) that fixes this issue. Please give it a try.

It has not been abandoned. I just didn't update because there was no need to update as it was working fine, even with phones such as LG V10 and G5 that were released after the July update. I have been promptly replying to users who contacted me on email with issues.

And it works fine with Marshmallow. Most people who can't get it to work on Marshmallow is due to one reason and I have explained it in the post below.

If your phone got updated to Marshmallow, make sure QuickMemo+ is also updated. Open your phone Settings -> About phone -> Update Center and see if QuickMemo+ has an update. Once updated, Key Plus should work just fine.

Thanks, that worked!

Now you're here: he [volume up] action isn't triggered when the (flip) cover is closed. I don't think so, but if you do know a way around this, I would love to see a fix.
