Does anyone know where I can find a working full screen version of UNO, jeopardy or wheel of fortune? UNO is the one i want the most, i love that game.
Well I'm sure there is an UNO app for android. If you are having trouble getting it to run full screen, you can download "spare parts" from the market and UN-CHECK compatibility mode, then restart. Most of your apps will run full screen after that.

Hey thanx for the advice. I installed the Gameloft version of uno that i had on my phone and it was originally a very small screen. After i unchecked the compatibility mode the scree doubled, making it about 1/4 my screen size of the XOOM. When i touched the screen the response was off. Do u have any other suggestions?
It doesn't work with every application, I'd find another UNO app and see if it works better.
I've decided to take this out of incubation in the device specific forums and put it fully out there. All feedback is appreciated!

Update (9/7/2012): New Tasker Support for changing profiles in Wave Control!
Update 31/08/2012: Jelly Bean users are getting force closes in the Play Store app when navigating to Wave Control -- The free version's apk is available to download on this post. Please if it's working for you in Play Store download from there.. I need the install count
Wave Control uses the proximity sensor to detect hand gestures to control music/movie playback (free version) and more (paid version).
I developed this originally on the Note and luckily it happened to have one of the best proximity sensors (at least for my uses). Now I've moved on to the SGSIII and it works just as well! Works best on the SGSIII, Note and Galaxy Nexus. Not so great on HTC phones and SGSII due to their particular sensors (much slower).
Performance will vary depending on which sensor your phone uses. All HTC phones use the same slow one. Samsung uses about 3 different vendors and more models.. most are good, Sony is usually ok, Motorola is a mixed bag. I try to account for some of the differences in the sensors. But be aware you may have to wave at a different speed than in the youtube videos.
There are 4 basic gestures:
-Hover
-1 Wave
-2 Waves
-3 Waves
By default they correspond to Play/Pause, Next, Previous, Enable/Disable Controls respectively.
In the Pro version or upgraded free version, they can be remapped to any of those plus: Screen Toggle On/Off, Volume Up, Volume Down, Launch Google Voice Search, Fast Forward, Rewind, and do nothing.
Popular uses are:
When driving, don't have to take your eyes off the road to try to hit a button
When your hands are dirty so you don't smear crap all over your phone like when cooking or working on car
While on the computer, you don't have to bother waking the phone to change the song (works even when the screen is off)
New
Control music on your PC using foobar2000 controller Pro-- Now compatible with Wave Control

Not share why but when I try to go to the app in the market I get a force close of the market. It immediately closes once the install page comes up. I can go to any other app and open it to the install page and install the app.

Can you try install from a PC browser and see if it'll do the background install on the phone?

I am trying the free version for now. I really like the app so far. I do have one issue though and maybe the paid version fixes this. When I have it turned on but not in use per se, I start texting in landscape mode and it will toggle on/off the music constantly even when I am not planning on listening to music. I did look through the settings and only option I see that works is to have the app turned off while I am texting/or using the keyboard for anything like typing in this reply via xda app. Is it possible to implement a setting that IF the phone e is in landscape or IF the keyboard is in use that it overrides the app turn I g music on?
Again I am only using the free version right now for testing and will plan on using the paid app once I like the setup. Thanks and this is a great idea.

I've had a request over email from a user for a mode where it only works when the screen is off. I think this would help a lot of these type issues.
I'll see if I can detect whether the keyboard is active in another app or not. That's a great idea.
Thanks for the feedback!
Oh and which version of the Play Store are you running?

Hmm. That's the same version I have on my stock SGSIII.
I wonder if it's a Jelly Bean thing. Someone in the Galaxy Nexus thread had the same issue. I have no idea why it would be a Jelly Bean thing though.
I've been using this app since April and have a pro copy of it because I loved how original the app was and how well it worked. I find it useful when I'm driving to change my songs. Great to see this finally land on XDA.

Still doesn't work for me. I tried going to market and used the search bar for wave control. It finds it and I click on it and play store crashes. Again I went to other apps and can view them with no issues. I can update apps no issues. Next I wiped data for the play store, re-accepted once I reopened it, try to go to wave control and it still will force close.
I already have it from the browser version but wanted to test for you.

Damn. It was working on a friend of mine's Nexus w/ Jelly Bean where it had crashed before.
works great !!! Galaxy Note i717 running CM10 Paranoid hybrid!!! i will definitely use this when driving!!!!
Awesome, free version works as advertised on my RAZR MAXX running AOKP's ROM.
Don't get me wrong but apply for patent before thugs at apple copy it and claim it is there idea.
I remember when this first came out and was so impressed with the concept...and it really has a come a long way. :highfive:
This is one of the apps I repeatedly show off to others - oh and guess what, sir? I just got a Visa card and will be buying the Pro version because it's that awesome.
So essentially this post was just to say: you and this app are awesome, thanks for existing haha.
Google Now
delete please
mehhh...its alright I guess.
Great app
How about tasker integration? I would love to be able to activate/deactivate from within tasker. Another cool feature would be able to change the "key mapping" from within tasker. Say at some point I want 3 waves to turn on the screen, yet at sone other point it should simply do nothing.
I've just bought the pro version and like what I've seen so far

Welcome!
This forum is for any tips, questions, answers, precautions,bugs, etc. for the LG Lucid.
It's just that simple.
I will start it of with a couple questions...
Question: How to unlock Bootloader?
Answer:
Question: How do I get the LG Lucid to boot into recovery?
Answer:
1. Hold down the power key for 2 seconds
2. You will be presented with a list of phone options, select the one called "Restart"
3. A warning message will appear with two options, select "OK"
4. After the screen blacks out (about 15 secs after step 3) you will see the LG logo.
5. As soon as you see the LG logo hold down the Volume Down key and the Power key for 12 seconds, then release.
6. You will now be presented with a blue screen that has an Android Emote in the center and some text in the top left region of the screen
7. This is the boot recovery screen.
If you LG Lucid has 4.0.4 and got the OTA update you can use the attached file and it will root it for you.
How to root droid 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich on LG Lucid 4G:
Download and extract the attached file to your PC;
Update LG Lucid 4G via OTA
In the folder "lg-lucid-root!" run "RunMe.bat" and follow the steps.
Now your phone should be rooted. Enjoy!

I have no root. i have ice cream sandwich 4.0.4. I followed maverick950 instructions. will someone please help me with this.
Is your USB connection set to Ethernet/Modem? I think it might be set to mass storage, at least that is what the mounting notice leads me to believe.

Unfortunately this device has a locked bootloader meaning if you modify the system mount in any way, it will go into a boot loop. I wouldn't hold your breath for a rom or unlocked bootloader any time soon, unless I can get my hands on an extra Lucid.

Will freezing/disabling the bloatware send my lucid into a security/brick mode?
Also, will installing cwm recovery do any harm?
Love the posts, and offered assistance.
rom toolbox pro
After further investigation, and a great amount of nail biting trial, I have determined that as long as it is not a critical app used for the operation of the device, just about any app can be frozen using rom toolbox pro, and not affect the operation of the device. If any others are wondering, I am posting this to help out, as there is not much resource for the development or use of our chosen device.

Rollback to gb. Then root, install Cwm, and flash cm10. It is amazing. I couldn't imagine going back to stock ics

I am a dishonest man, and you can always honestly trust a dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly it's the honest ones you have to watch out for.
Just wondering if the root for the Lucid is the same as that for the Optimus Exceed, which is apparently the prepaid version. The model numbers are the same even - VS840 and VS840PP.
hello guys. i dont have computer, but i want to share with you a very good application.
if you are bored of playing modern combat 4 or 3 on 20-40fps - here is a solution how to improve performance having the same quality on galaxy S4 ROOTED ONLY and make it work on 60fps very good for multiplayer playing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
choose your android version (depends on android version, so if you downloaded wrong version, it just won't work.)
Android 4.3 (and i guess later.. ): and it's called "resolution changer".
Android 4.2.2 or earlier: it's called "Display scaller free".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KNOWN ISSUES.
0. As I said - you must be rooted!
1.1 Stop saying "just open terminal and..." okay - try. Get on-screen keyboard force close error, get mad, do restore or flash firmware again if you think that terminal is better way to chose resolution Than come back here and say "well - forget terminal, guys!".
1.2 So, you have mistake with keyboard? good :> but.... mabye do you have the same problem with default launcher? I use "smart launcher" - the best, the fastest, the most comfortable launcher for android ever. +no bugs/glitches.
2. If you want to play "black ops zombies" on galaxy S4 - 16:9 resolutions/720x1280 <--- this will fix screen issues in this game
3. will be soon i don't forget this thread, i just wanna make it useful
Or an easier way to do this is just go in to terminal and enter:
su
am display-size 720x1280
(You can put any resolution into the command)
Touchwiz and some stock apps will mess up a bit so it's better using a custom launcher like Nova
Android 4.2 or lower only, command doesn't work in 4.3 as well as this app I'm guessing

the app named "Display Scaler free" - search on google play.
as i said - i dont have computer right now, so i cant upload links and pictures - mabye i am too stupid for this, and also it takes a lot of time
after you got this free application, open it, PHONES --> 16:9 resoliutions --> 576x1024...
you will get small resoliution. DO NOT EXPERIMENT WITH VERY SMALL RESOLIUTIONS, BETTER MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE.
Press thanks if you enjoy games with 60fps
(P.S. setting on 720x1280 will fix black ops zombies screen problems )

Hello, I want to have something extremely simple yet I can't find a working way to have it: I just want to be able to solve some sudoku-like puzzles where I have to shade some cells using a paint bucket tool on png files just like on windows paint, but I want to see if wifi is available while doing so, but the irony is I struggled to find a paint-like that does such a simple thing, it's called PhotoSuite and the problem is that it hides the notification bar.
So do you know an alternative to this app ? Or a way to force the app to not be in fullscreen or at least show wifi signal on overlay (and if possible icon notification that may appear from a game telling me it's my turn to play) ? I tried a module of xposed but the problem is that with last stable or even experimental version the framework is still not installed after download and reboot. Bird bar, Smart Statusbar, Swipe status bar, "open notification bar", also don't do it. My phone is on android 4.1.2.

You cant expect everything to work with 4.1.2, 4.1.2 isn't really supported anymore, most of today's apps are for 4.4 and newer.
If you want to use current apps and software, may I suggest you upgrade to a more recent device that has at least 4.4 or 5.0. It doesn't have to be a new device, there are plenty of used devices with 4.4 and newer software.
Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk
Well xposed is actually something that works better, if not only, with android 4, so unless my phone specifically don't work with it for some reason it should have worked. But alternatively, I'm pretty sure there must be some very basic paint-like apps that works on my phone, actually I'm pretty sure some were made even for android 1 given how basic that is.
Since I really don't want much from my phone (I almost never went to the google play store) I don't want to buy a more recent one and the one I have doesn't have any custom rom to upgrade it, unlike a galaxy s I have (but it's way slower and have less ram).
There we go: I tried many other paint softwares, none did what I wanted, so instead I tried to make xposed framework work, it works perfectly on my older phone but on this one all I had to do was to check "Disabled resource hooks". I'm still surprised by the fact that it's way easier to force an app to be in fullscreen than to prevent it.
