How to customize the on-screen buttons on LG G3 by using Button combinations:
1. First of all, you have to navigate to Settings (Device tab)>Home touch buttons>Button combination;
2. This Button combination menu gives you the opportunity to rearrange the default back, home, as well as task-switching keys, not to mention that you can also add two more from the following options:
- QuickMemo+: is well-known for launching LG’s note-taking app and taking a screenshot;
- Notifications: pulls down the notification shade when you want to avoid reaching the top of the screen in order to see your notifications;
- Dual window: this button is used for bringing up the interface for Dual window, letting you drag supported apps to the top / bottom portions of the screen;
- QSlide: offers you access to the QSlide menu, providing a grid of windowed apps that you can easily drag around the screen.
How to Hide on-screen Buttons in Some Apps:
- We know that you want to take advantage of your G3’s 5.5-inch display as much as possible, so hiding your on-screen buttons in certain apps is absolutely necessary. In order to do so, just go to the “Hide Home touch buttons” menu, which presents you with a list of all the apps on your LG phone and make the necessary changes. Don’t worry, this feature doesn’t hide the notification shade, but only the on-screen buttons;
- If you want to view the on-screen buttons in an app in which you’ve chosen to hide them, all you have to do is to swipe up from where they’d usually be and things will go back to normal.
