  • How to install LGSettings.apk on LG CLassic Flip

Started by acebai22 · Jun 08, 2021

I had a little trouble finding clear instructions on this, but I got it to work so I just wanted to share the steps with everyone. @xxdeafgirl posted this link to some advanced LG settings LgListLauncher-xxdeafgirl.apk
If you try to install with file manager, it'll tell you the source isn't trusted and the phone won't let you run the install.

Steps:

  1. Download the file from the link above
  2. Plug your LG Classic Flip into your PC
  3. On the Phone open the USB notification and change it to MIDI mode
  4. On the PC open a web browser and go to app.webadb.com
  5. Hit the connect button in the upper left to connect to your device.
  6. Go to "file Manager" on the WebADB site and navigate to Device > storage > self > primary > Download
  7. Click the "Upload" button towards the top of the screen and navigate to your downloads (on the PC) and choose the LGSettings.apk file to upload
  8. Once that file is uploaded, on WebADB click "Interactive Shell"
  9. Type this command cd /storage/self/primary/Download and press Enter.
  10. Then, type this command pm install -r LGSettings.apk

It may take about 30 seconds to run the command, but it'll work!
If you would like to get back the original settings app you can simply type in the following command “pm uninstall com.android.settings“ and restart the phone.

This was helpful thank you. It works and is very nice.

Atusb for now, you can run 'adb shell am start com.android.settings/.Settings`. Later I will post that app you requested in the other thread.

Will this work on LG wine 2

buchur The only phones it will be compatible with is the lg classic and maybe another LG phone that runs android 8.1
