    Not your typical what app is this.

    Simple question. Changing the forum page style from Prisma AF /Default style to Dark changes the logo from this To this. Is the D simply indicating Dark theme?

    Bookmark help

    Sometime back I had an issue with trying to lock my bookmarks to where they only opened onto a specific folder. It seemed to be set using the flags setting "Improved bookmarks save flow" and setting it to disabled. All was fine until about a week ago when every time I open my bookmarks it...

    What happened to add to desktop?

    Tried to add a page to my desktop, using Chrome, and the option is no longer in settings. Has it been removed, or simply moved? I'm using my LG V30, running Android 10.

    Weather widget

    Don't know if it's the covid brain fog, yet, but can anyone tell me why Nova fails to retain a weather widget? I've always had an AccuWeather widget, on the phone, but lately it's not there.

    Latest Stimulus Package

    But they sure kept the pork in the package, along with a hefty raise for them too.

    Capture+

    Playing around with the floating toolbar, today, and tried to access the quick memo function. I get a notification that says I need to install the QMemo+ app. Click install and nothing happens. Carrier locked or just another LG function that doesn't work?

    Fingerprint scanner

    For as long as I've had my phone, I've just used a pattern unlock. Well, today I tried to set up the fingerprint unlock. Went through all the steps and the phone indicated that it had saved the print, but when I tried to unlock the phone the pattern unlock comes up with a message that says...

    Games?

    Ok folks, I'm looking for a new game. Solitaire, checkers, Tetris and the like are getting old. Something that an old guy would like, but doesn't use Google Play Games. Any suggestions?

    Wakelocks?

    I've been especially pleased with the battery life on my V40, untill recently. Battery stats indicate that "Held Awake" percentages are increasing. No new apps recently to explain the increase in wakelocks either. What do I look for to find out what's happening. I had thought I had my...

    LG SmartWorld app?

    Is anyone finding anything useful in the LG SmartWorld app? http://us.lgworld.com/store/mobileWebview/gateway/mainSubConnect.dev?sendDirectFlag=Y&country=US%7CEN Personally, I was a bit disappointed in the selection. Other than a few fonts, there's nothing there for me. I find navigation...

    Themes?

    Have been concerned about possible burn in of the nav bar. Added a theme to my V40 today; Black theme for LG V40 V35 G7 , developed by Nguyen Ngoc Giap. It's one step closer to an all dark/ black look to my phone. Also downloaded the Samsung Internet Browser to be able to use the High Contrast...

    V40 Camera

    Thought this was a decent overview on the camera on the V40.

    Third party apps.

    What are some of the best third party apps, that you've got on the V40? One of my favorites is Smart Touch Pro. Had it on my last 2, mainly for the screenshot capability and the ability to lock the screen w/o usenu the physical button. Even though the V40 has the floating bar option, I...

    Latest update

    Perhaps it's just me, but I'm generally pleased with the last update. It does look cleaner, but why move the "Empty Trash Now" and the "Empty Spam Now" buttons to the left of the screen. My automatic muscle response has been trained to hit one spot on the screen, for so long, that... Oh well...

    Notifications

    The one thing, that I miss the most, on my old phone, are the LED notification lights. I've tried the "Sidelight" function but it only stays on for a limited time. I've tried a couple different apps (Always On Edge and Plus Beat) but they don't do what I'm looking for. NoLED has been pulled...

    Love Mei

    After the boss lady told me that she had ordered me a new phone, I figured I had better get busy. I won't use a smartphone without a protective case, and the OtterBox Defender has always been my case of choice. It's been a while since I bought one and was a bit aggregated that they removed the...

    LG G7 - Only 9 threads?

    Lately, my old S5 is showing signs of impending death. Checked the Verizon site for a suitable replacement and think that the G7 may be what I'm looking for. My next visit was to see what was said, here, on AF. Either it's so good, no one has issues, it's crap and no one has bothered with it...

    Sounds on Facebook

    Seems that lately (in the last couple days) when I "like" a post Facebook puts out some kind of sound. Before someone tells me to go to settings and look for app settings, I can't. I'm accessing Facebook via browser. I find these noises more than slightly annoying, and just simply want them...

    S6 stuck on recovery menu

    My wife's S6 (Verizon, Android N, stock) was having issues and she attempted to wipe the cache partition. She got to the recovery menu, and used the volume down button to move the selector. It moved down as far as the wipe data/factory reset option, and won't move further. Vol up/down button...

    Stupid question? - Forums for Android

    Posted a comment, on the big page, about the Forums app. Still trying to get into it, but am trying to figure out the "My Stuff". What exactly is it for? All I see is my name, it's and a settings button.
