There is a pretty simple way to go in these launcher settings.
1. Download and install Launcher Pro from Google Play (you don't need to set it as default launcher or anything)
2. Add Activities widget to your LG Launcher home screen. Search for Home - com.lge.launcher2.hiddenmenu.LGHomeHiddenMenuActiv ity
3. Voilà now you have access to hidden settings from your Home screen. If you change your settings they will keep even after restarting your phone.

Those just look like a non polished interface for your custom launcher. My guess is that they aren't LG launcher specific, they are Launcher PRO specific...
In which case you're telling us that a custom launcher has more features than the integrated one, which isn't really news to anyone on XDA mate.

look at the name of the shortcut.. it's LG launcher 2 hidden menu.. so yeah its a stock launcher hidden menu. you can use anycut or something else to launch different shortcuts that are otherwise hidden, but he's using a different launcher to launch the hidden shortcut.

Check that it is right one that you try to launch. There are 2 pretty similar names. Another one doesn't work.

I'm getting to the end of step two then when I try to get into the settings I get this force close when I tap that home icon that you see at the top of my homescreen (That's what the activities widget turned into). I'm on a rooted stock D801 on T-mobile

I'm only interested in changing a few settings on the LG launcher, does anybody know of a way to do basic stuff like change the alignment from 5x5 to something else?
*EDIT* found it! got it to work. you go into Home > the second hiddenmenu thing, not the first one you see.
As you can see at the bottom, no names on my dock icons. Feature_hotseat_notext did that

A lot of people have been having trouble finding out how to enable download booster and until a developer makes a mod to enable the native settings in your settings this is the only wave I know of to be able to do so.
In order to do this you will need to use a third party launcher. In this example I use Nova Launcher - launchers like Apex should work as well (as well as most decent third party launchers).
1. Go to home screen.
2. Hold down your finger on the screen till menu pops up.
3. Click on Shortcuts.
4. Click on Activities.
5. Scroll down to "Settings" and click on it which will open up a long list of things.
6. Scroll through the list till you find Download Booster. Click on it.
7. Now you will have a shortcut on your home screen that will take you to the download booster settings screen.
8. Enable download booster.
9. Enjoy
P.S. Wasn't 100% what forum to put this under as it's obviously not "development" nor did I think it was general or Q/A so I thought here was the most fitting (as it is kinda an "app" I guess?) - mods feel free to move to this to the appropriate forum if need be.

There's also an app on the play store called activity launcher that will work to open and/or create the shortcut as well.

Also like the S5 from Sprint its there but thats all it is until someone can get it working. When its working it will show both download speeds and show the icon as bright not grey. Unless its working for someone else i just know its not for me same issue with s5 until someone modded it.
I understand what this does, but what is the benefits of enabling this? Does this interfere with Wifi calling?

I downloaded this but could not find the download booster on the list.

When its active it will be the same color as your wifi icon. ...on s5 its how it was when they finally got it working
I can confirm that the icon will show up with this method but it does not light up. Looks like the feature is disabled.

Yes all carriers but T-Mobile have i believe. But someone will get it going im sure
Heads up, the Galaxy Tools app in the playstore will add the native icon to the quick settings in the notification bar....just select "Add all Notification Toggles"....throws a few extra in there as well
Works
Its there but don't "work"
I found some other settings that were thought to be lost to this phone. Smart scroll, and hand gesture call answering. Do the same thing, shortcuts, activities, settings, smart scroll and air gesture.
I love the icon set and used to have it on my B321 Rom but now I downgraded to B200 the Benbai theme is no longer listed in the Huawei themes app.

Thank you very much.
on a side note, does anyone know how to remove the circles behind the icons?
Solved this myself. Used the EMUI theme editor on the play store to remove the mask around the icons.

I decided to try the beta on my personal Pixel and it's been good for the most part. I'd say very stable for daily use.
However I've noticed I can no longer stop apps from making a shortcut on my home page. So if I install 20 apps I'm forced to grab them and remove them.
Anyway to stop this or is this the way Google is going with O?

how can you switch back to 5.2 ? I downloaded from apkmirror but cannot install. need to uninstall first?
I can see that when in nova/home, the dot for show/hide navbar is gone, and navbar will always show.
but in other apps, it will follow hide/show setting and dot is there.
There's 2 ways
Native settings in display, and finding a theme that does transparent bars
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
I'm using Nova Launcher Prime 5.3 too and my navbar is still transparent on homescreen.
In addition i can hide navbar too with the dots, so i don't know what's your problem at all.
Its working like all the time before.
It's transparent but there isn't any point to hide.
I don't hide that anyway so no problem for me

You have to activate the point in navbar settings first.. i have the point and hide is working fine..
EDIT: okay, you're right, point is only visible in apps and settings, not on homescreen itself.
Good that i don't need it

The dot is working in the apps, but not in the homescreen anymore. Just updated Nova.
Suggest you *ALL* contact the dev, and leave negative reviews on the app store or youll be stuck with it like that forever. It is sheer stupidity. Most people use nova for the customisation, removing the ability to do this is pretty stupid.
2 other ideas
1, does anyone know a transparent dark theme that would take care of this problem
2, any other launcher with this much power that would keep doing this
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
Can use adb to hide navbar even in nova launcher.

Guys we are talking about the navbar on home screen, okay? I see that it works in apps and settings! Yes. I know the navbar can be transparent. But the discussion is not about it! Burn-in is alive and I want to avoid the problem!
