Found another annoying bug

Well 1st there is no Tune-in Radio......and now it looks like my YouTube subscriptions from foreign countries are not showing up, it shows that i have 1 subscription, when open folder i see 2, and in reality on youtube.com i have 4
also i know there is a fix, but the lack on "settings" button is ridiculous, it doesnt even properly work in Google apps.

you mean FM Radio? It's there.

On my T-Mobile One S, Tune-in Radio is listed in the apps on the phone but is not listed in the app drawer.
However, it does have a widget, which can be added to the home screen.
I have no clue why they did it this way.
FM Radio is different that what the OP was talking about.

Another bug i noticed, cant share pictures with Picasa, i get "failed to retrieve account info" msg
this is while Pisaca sync works fine by the way, but i dont wanna sync, i always used SHARE option
also Geniewidget hourly weather results in FC.

Unfortunatly I was stupid enough not to do Nandroid backup and I cant test if thats my ROM or even stock ROM has those issues.
But development is SO slow on this, we dont even have stock ROM yet which I can flash.
I only have Nandroid of ROM with removed bloat and I still get ALL issues above

i have noticed this also .. it was there when i first got the phone and after some PLay Store updates now its not listed in the app drawer..personally i havent used the app before and dont really know if i were to root it if i would keep the app since i dont use it but i noticed it was gone the other day..

same thing happen to me last night when I got my one s
I updated tune in through google play store and the app icon is nowhere to be seen and I cant open it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but did not work.
I use this app everyday on my drive to and from work. I listen to 1310 sports talk radio in Dallas since I was relocated to Houston and I cant go without listening to this station!
I broke down and bought the tune in pro app and it works great and I have an icon.. something is definitely wrong with the included tune in app from T-Mobile..

Its not on the app drawer because its a widget. If a widget doesn't have settings it doesn't have a icon in app drawer. Some app just don't show up on app drawer like homescreen launchers. It's installed, but you can't get to It.

Its not a widget, Tune-In Radio is an app. Tmobile screwed up launcher settings. Work around it to use Nova or Apex launchers, they both work great.

Thanks.....maybe its ICS issue. All my subscriptions work fine on GB G2x

Same problem here. I don't care much because the only reason I discovered it was clearing off photos before returning my phone. Disappointed, crossing fingers better luck with Galaxy S III.

Nice. It's really good. I've tried the previous one(month ago maybe), but the big Google widget just driver me crazy and I delete it 10 minutes after that.

Ofc not..

I like the slide up animation and the smooth feeling of it, but compared to e.g. Nova Launcher - it's not even close.
I know there's a hype on this launcher, but can somebody tell me - what's so great in it?
Also - Google App does not appear on the left side.

I can't get why someone should tell you what is great and what is not in this launcher? If you like it, use it, if not, then there are tons of other launchers. And let's not forget that "great" is not same for everyone and all have different liking and needs.

Transparent dock background not working on beta 10. Shows first but disappears after i slide up to drawer. And the animation is pretty awkward from light transparent to whiteish to black.

Pretty sure this is just a link to the APK by team blacked out, which is originally in a zip file so you can flash it as a system app allowing the slide left Google now functionality to remain

Anyone else experiencing slight judder or lag?

Love the phone, but for a company to tout its performance I'd expect a buttery smooth experience. However, this is not the case. I occasionally experience a slight lag or judder while moving across screens, opening apps, opening folders, etc. I don't know if this is due to 7.0 nougat as I have heard some stories of its inefficiencies which is why its updated to 7.1 now, but I do hope that when it does get updated to 7.1 in Feb this will go away. Anyone else experiencing this?

I noticed a small lag when opening folders, so I downloaded the Google now launcher and the folder lag is gone. I also have my animations turned down to .5 seconds in developer settings.

Are you talking primarily Huawei launcher?
I personally use Nova or Google Launcher(when i can change dpi) without issue.
I was just thinking the other day, the phone is stupid smooth and figured I would have experience some type of lag. Only lag I encounter is with Chrome browser but Im the type with 99(smiley face) tabs running.

Yes, I was talking about the Huawei Launcher having a slight lag at times when opening folders. It's not bad and not consistent, but it does happen at times. The Google now launcher is butter.

I dont know if it would work but one of the first things I do is turn animations to .25/.5 under devolper options. Worth a shot if you want to stick with Huawei launcher.

Yeah I already did that too. It helps for sure. Another thing...In developer settings, right under the Window and Transition animation scale settings, there is a setting called "smallest width" that you can use to change the screen density. The higher the number, the smaller everything gets (opposite from changing the screen density in the build prop). Anyways, when I change this to my liking, the Huawei Launcher gets very choppy, but the Google now launcher is very smooth. So that's another reason to use the Google launcher or Nova.

The issue is the twin app do not work with 3rd party launchers....

I have massive scroll lag when using Google Play Games but that's it. Everything else namely the UI eye candy is buttery smooth.

The Mate 9 I had before this one did have lag, but I sent the it back due to GPS problems.

Thank you for reminding me of the smallest width option. Remember wanting to play with that when I got the phone but I forgot.
That needs its own thread.

I like to keep my display size on large and set the value in developer settings to 500. This keeps the navigation buttons bigger and more spread out. If I set the display to small and then adjust the value, my nav buttons get really small and very close together.

Keyboard seems to be non-responsive from time to time. I have noticed this accross multiple apps, inclusive of chrome. Have to back out and click the input area of the apps/browser for the keyboard to work again.

First number I tried was 500. Will test when I get back home Monday.
Seriously someone create a thread . This is very valuable.
I don't need root now, and with the lower dpi Google now doesn't look disgusting.
Straight up blonde moment.

Changing the animation speeds in developer options makes a big difference along with the width settings.

Youtube Crop Problem (Not fitting the whole screen)

Hi i have a samsung S8+ bought from Bestbuy unlocked
im using the latest firmware and latest youtube app. recently my youtube stop cropping videos properly they onlu crop from top to bottom and no left and right. ive tried any video and trailers since trailers shows perfectly on the infitiny screen.
im not rooted and did nothing to modify my unit. my brother owns a locked ATT s8+ and he doesnt havr this issue.
things ive done that doesnt work
1) Rebooting phone
2) disabled the app overlay option on youtube app
3) the full screen option on settings is greyed out so i cant change it
things ive done (temporary fix)
1) Uninstall youtube update and use stock version
2) clear the data and cache (the problem will accur again after some time)
ive searched google and it seems the issue is very seldom i cant even see a permanent fix im hoping some from xda can help or share info. ?

Cropping is only top and bottom to fill out video to whole screen. The other option was stretch to fit, which stretched the video to the sides. YouTube app for our phone has been iffy. Also the stretching or cropping sacrifice quality.

But from the previous youtube we have 2 options Crop to fit and something like original. Selecting crop to fit fills out the entire infinity screen. But now the crop to fit only crops the too and bottom leaving the left and right black bars. It doesnt consume the whole infinity display

yeah but i dont know why others doesnt experience this problem only few people do

The only way to fit a 16:9 image on a 18:9 screen without cropping is by stretching it...
Do you like stretching? I don't, and neither cropping, IMHO better have black side bars.

I have already make the same question about the exactly same problem 1,5 month ago... I make a lot of tests and compare with my friends S8+....
I couldn't find a way to make it work for ever.... Only temporarily after clean app cache & data... And finally I found a solution that worked for me everytime...
You must NOT sing in to your YouTube acount.... I know that this isn't the best convinience solution but is working great at least for me.... My testing shows that with the same version of YouTube if you stay unsigned the interface of the app is totally different from the interface of the app when you are singed in... The second scenario that I'm not sure about it is that the issue started when I bought a tablet (xperia z4) and stay singed in... Maybe the updates that I'm getting in my S8+ makes conflict with the updates of my tablet or something like that but I'm not sure..... I hope that I help you and maybe you will find a better solution...

hello did you find a solution to this issue? i have experienced the same trouble, already searched the whole internet, still can't find a decent solution

I know solution, download original youtube mode app with zoom mode. Link is: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hroo76125r9c7ef/AAAkofwRfrtj140sxY1mZ4dsa/Normal YouTube_v12.42.59.apk?dl=0

Sorry wrong link, correct link is https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hroo76125r9c7ef/AADyAUudoLs8rDCmFh5WmALBa?dl=0

I'm having the same problem - the crop to fit on YouTube option is not available any more.
I'm not sure whether it's the Samsung update which has broken it or the YouTube update. I've uninstalled the YouTube updates and it still didn't work so I'm thinking it's Samsung's update which is the culprit. To say I'm annoyed would be an understatement.....I watch a lot of YouTube on my commute to/from work. I have this big beautiful screen and now can't utilise it fully when watching YouTube as I have the black bars either side.
I may as well pull out my old HTC M7 and start using that as the total area of both screens when watching YouTube is about the same now!!

Updated to android P

Hi all.
Today I received the new android p update. But unfortunately differences are little to none.
Have you received the update yet?
Whats your experience with android p on lg g7?
Have you noticed much improvements?

I noticed notifications are little bit different, you have option to minimize those permanent notifications without being able to see them in notification bar. And you get options for fast reply messages form viber... probably some other apps. But it wasn't there before. And Gestures are here. I still use app called Gesture control for this coz I like it more like that. And ofc there is different recent apps look. Looks better. Other than that, everything is same.

I use google sms app and have had the notification and fast reply already.
Unfortunately I am disappointed that lg did not put any time to improve the ui.
What about camera? I do not see any improvements.

I noticed also magnified view when I try to select some text. And in camera there is now cine shot which lets you make some photos with some part moving like animation.
There is probably more of changes that I dont notice. I use nova luncher with custom themes so I knot nothing about UI how it looks like now and can't remember how it looked before.

If you turn them on in settings you will be able to use swipe right to open recent apps and switch between last used apps.
