Re: trying out the stock launcher

You don't lose double tap with Nova. I am using it now.

So you can wake AND lock with double-tap?

How?

For Off, you can either double tap the status bar, or install a Screen Off app from the Play store and set that app as the double tap gesture in Nova (gestures require the Prime paid version of Nova).

Screen on works as it normally would.

Re: question about lg keyboard

This is a known issue with LG phones. I think the G4 does this too

Posted via the Android Central App with my two thumbs.

Indeed it does. It's just a notification however. You don't have to actually select a keyboard. I believe it's actually a feature rather than an issue, allowing a quick method to change the keyboard when your in the middle of an application. For example, I typed half of this reply on the LG keyboard, then used the notification to change to the Google keyboard and type the rest. I can't think of a reason why someone would want to do this though.

Re: question about lg keyboard

Agree with JayWill. On every Android device I've used, a keyboard notification icon appears in the status bar when typing, to allow you to switch keyboards on the fly very easily. If you only have one keyboard installed, then you probably won't see that icon (and if you do, then it's probably a minor bug).

For me, this is my first LG and came from the HTC line of phones. On all of them you can press and hold in any text input area and then pop ups a menu to select the keyboard. But LG's method does not bother me, it just took me b y surprise the first time it happened.

Correct. I used the app called "screen off".

Turn off Auto in your pull down menu.
That should do it.

I've grown to really like Inbox. It just takes some getting used to. I use Mailwise for my work exchange account which I also really like.

Re: fav email app

I'm still using gmail for my personal email but for my work's Exchange/Office 365 environment, I use Nine. It is amazing!
