LG G4 First Impressions & Pending Review

Re: The Front Facing Selfie 😜

I posted this in another thread, but this was my result when testing the front "flash" mode in a completely dark room.

Re: The Front Facing Selfie 😜

Wanted to test the front facing camera the night after my whole Best Buy debacle. I never take selfies (I think I've done about four my whole life), but talk about good quality!
I almost thought I didn't look as hobo-like as usual, despite the messed up hair and oily face.

...Then I noticed the beauty slider. Oh. Put that slider down and I recognized all my flaws. :-P

By the way, anyone having issues with it rotating after sharing the photo? It's always proper orientation, but as soon I click share (using QuickPic gallery), the end result of the share has the photo rotated. I wonder if the stock gallery does it.

Themes

We can only look in awe to HTC and their implementation.

There are a few points and i honestly wish that OEM's realise that we need developers and not just their own software designers.

Whilst yes their Software team are of the highest level granted, they and do lack a mind that is open in relation to this subject.

Samsung & Lg alike need to get a grip and allow developers and public alike to upload and modify themes.

Htc is way way infront here and for the most part its free to, don't think i came across anything paid.

My opinion is that theming on both Samsung & Lg is way below par.

What do you guys think?

Re: The Front Facing Selfie 😜

Ah the selfie camera... the camera I will never use :)

I probably will never even see its options, its funny.
 
Re: Themes

I agree. Way below par. Not only are the themes incomplete, many of the icons that come with them are not geared for qHD screens and look pixelated. I will admit though that some of the keyboard themes look nice.

I don't think they will be allowing just anyone to upload new content. I'm sure people would use icons and wallpapers without permission, which could lead to problems for LG. I know Samsung was looking for designers to help populate their theme store, so hopefully LG will follow suit.
 
Re: Themes

Dang, was really looking forward to this theme stuff as downloading launchers and all that just to change the appearance of the phone is something we should not have to do. It should be a built in UI feature like every other OS on the planet.

My daughter loves the damn lemon theme lol

Re: Is your G4 Naked?

Black Leather, so naked with Screen Protector...I spent the extra money for the leather, I plan on showing it off! :D
 
Re: Is your G4 Naked?

I can't stand screen protectors, but I never leave my phone without a case.. It's too expensive to even get little dings on it. I generally go with some sort of slim case but this time I'm trying out a wallet type of case. At lease for the time being.

I'm not a huge screen protector fan,but going naked until a real bumper comes out for the leather back.

What do you not like about glass screen protectors? I don't have my phone yet (thank you LG Canada), but when I do I'll be getting both black plastic and black leather backs (that's the deal here)... and I'd love to use the leather back and not have to put a case at all on the phone. I've ordered a Spigen glass screen protector, and I'm hoping that it will help prevent screen demolition.
