I know some people have been looking for these. Hopefully opening these up can possibly give us undocumented access to the camera and other functions, as well as someone possibly helping me with coming up with registry and file editors.

Included are:
- ScanSearch (augmented reality POI locator)
- PlayTo (LG's DLNA)
- Panorama Shot (one touch camera panorama)
- Tool Box (world clock, unit converter, world holidays, date calc, sale price calc, level meter, flashlight [uses screen, not led camera flash], random number)
- Photo Stylist (edit photos)
- Look n Type (uses camera to project what's in front of you while you type)
- Network Setup
- Voice to Text

Use at your own risk, I don't know if these apps will be like samsung's (work for everyone) or htc's (works for htc exclusively).

If I'm in violation of any xda rules I'll remove the links:

People, I've upped some more exclusive LG apps for us to tinker with:
- Metro Scanner (requested)
- QR Reader (actively scans, no picture taking)
- PostNote
- Today (basically Samsung's Now app, but has a twitter page that you can see tweets from)
- Weather & Clock (think HTC Hub, but as an app)
- Updated version of Scansearch (v1.2)

MFG APP,

I posted mfg.xap to developers who want to extract native LG dll's to develop hybrid homebrew apps. Apps that have access to functionality normally only available for OEMs and MOs.

i used wp7 3MktPlace to download all LG apps.
PanormaShot doesnt even start...therefore would be nice if someone could patch it.
I still dont understand why the crappy WP7 cams dont have more options than now. Even some old phones I own do have panorama...

I just got in can anyone verify or deny whether lg network setup has similar properties and dlls of the htc connection setup and has the ability to overwrite provxml?

i'm checking
i tell you this in a minute but it also need to accept custom provxml
there is other tools to deploy provxml into windows but doesn't accept custom file.


YES
in fact prov xml are in the XAP so really simple to edit and deploy I hope this accept custom xml! i'm pretty sure yes!
if an LG USER CAN CONFIRM THAT CAN BE REALLY USEFULL
maybe a simplest way to deploy provxml on all device

Looking at LG connection setup source code, it seems indeed that they are using provxml. I'll try to extract the code and build a test app.

Ok, here is a customized version of the custom theme app that try to use LG DLL if it's not on a HTC device.

WARNING. I don't own an LG, and this method has never been tested by anyone. So use it at your own risk!

    btw thomas how far is that work on them apps?

    Got through the OEM Apps I could see - the XAPs are available here.

    Right, having gone through the OEM Applications, these are my findings with regards to them working on my Omnia 7:

    Look n Type:
    Works fine, no bugs.

    Photo Stylist:
    Only worked for me after a restart of the device. Strange, cannot find a reason for this to be the case. Still, worked as expected without bugs after this.

    ScanSearch:
    Worked, for the most part, though it always assumed I was facing east. It seems to pick up the orientation through a custom property implemented in the camera driver, which isn't present on other devices. Also, didn't pick up anything using Bing as my Information Provider, though that might be because they don't provide data for my area, I'm not sure.

    Toolbox:
    Works fine, no bugs, though seemed a little slow and laggy at times.

    Panorama Shot:
    No chance. It relies on those custom properties I mentioned in the ScanSearch section. I considered editing them out, but since they are for orientation, it'd probably seriously hamper it's ability to stitch the photos together.

    PlayTo:
    Requires a missing device driver. However, this was the only app to be signed by Microsoft IT, not LG Electronics. Also suggested that I could obtain the device driver by updating my copy of WP7 - suggesting there's plans to provide DLNA functionality across all devices? Warrants further investigation.
