Hi!

I think first of all, if you want to use the phone at it fully potential, you need to activate the LG keyboard to use the keyboard in fullscreen on a screen.

Secondly, you need to use the Whale navigator or Google Chrome to have the better potential to navigate on the Internet.

Finally, I can propose you to download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode

Whit this app, you can put any apps in fullscreen on the two screens.

Bonus : If you like to play with DS Emulator, try Drastic with the LG Gamepad. It's like play again with a Nintenso DS! *.*

You need to take the app right here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dsemu.drastic

Then, you need to download a Nintendo DS game in .nds format (example Pokemon Diamond). You put the file in a folder and you open it with the app.

(Note : I think you need to open the LG Gamepad on the other screen before to launch the app, because sometime the gamepad doesn't work when you open it after in my case.)
